Kicks!

Just felt my first two ‘proper’ kicks! I’ve had a lot of weird flutters for the last few weeks but these were recognisably hard kicks 🥺🩷 I can’t believe it! I’m 18 weeks tomorrow! Anyone else experiencing this already? This is baby no2 for me 🩷

I’ve been the same with my baby since about 18 weeks aswell (proper kicks) and I’ve had flutters since 16 weeks with my first baby. My placenta is on the top of my uterus so there’s nothing infront of him 😂 for mamas who don’t know what to expect with how it feels at the start. It’s like when you’re eyelid twitches but in your tummy or gas bubbles at the start and get stronger and stronger. It’s an amazing feeling 🥹

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃
