Ahhh kicks at last!!

This morning little boy has blessed me with some strong kicks. After not feeling a single movement until now (19 weeks + 2) I was really panicked, I expected to feel movements so much earlier with him being my second baby!

Hold on in there if you haven’t felt them yet ❤️❤️❤️

if it's causing you any stress, do whatever feels right for you. Can never be too cautious. Likely everything is okay as movement isn't typically regular at this stage but do whatever will put you at ease 💕💕

it’s really common to not have regular or a pattern of movements at this stage so I’d try not to worry lovely! If it would make you feel better you can always contact your midwife and see if she can do a Doppler heart beat check up for you before your 20 week scan? I did this a couple of weeks ago because I was really anxious and my hospital wouldn’t scan me as I had no bleeding. I hope everything goes perfectly with your 20 week scan 🤍🤍🤍

I know it’s common to not have any regular patterns yet but it’s just I kept feeling her move every other day or 2 and now not felt nothing for 2 weeks il try hold of to my 20 week scan on Monday there’s not long to go anyway I’m hoping everything is ok tho thanks ladies xx

do you have anterior placenta or do you not know yet? I do and can go a few days without feeling much but then feel more when they have moved. Placenta being at the front can make it more difficult as it's extra padding

Its posterior placenta which is at the back they’ve told me at every scan Iv had including private scans that’s how Iv felt movement already

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
