Hey everyone, I don't post much but read every day. Can I just ask at what stage did people feel their bean kick or move around? I am 19 weeks (ish) and don't think I've felt anything yet

Thanks in advance! x

This is my first and like xmas said from about 18 weeks I could feel little bubbles like trapped wind or butterflies which I thought was bubs. I would say it was probably 21-22 weeks when I actually felt a proper kick.
It also could depend on how much padding you had before you got pg - that's my polite way of saying if you are a larger lady you might not feel movements as soon as a smaller lady.

You should have a scan comin up very soon so try not to worry - just wait til he/she is booting you every 5 minutes

Thanks Glam - this is the most I've ever posted! I started off quite small so hopefully I'll feel it soon. My scan is August 14th so not long now... x

on a side note I have banned my other half from sex not because i dont want to i do but i am so worried about triggering labour early. I might look into condoms what do you think ?

Mustbemad, my uric acid levels were only .29 on Wednesday night so it's not pre eclampsia, just pregnancy induced hypertension. Jillie is on methyldopa, I was going to change to methyldopa from labitalol but couldn't be bothered getting the prescription.

Elastigirl, what an absolute cow! I'd have went mad! Still report it to the police though.

Fitzio, snap! 5ft5inch and a size 5/6 shoe!

Albion, your placenta may be at the front and would mean you wont feel much for another few weeks, don't worry about it.

Gemma, it's called vivid dreaming and is a real talking point! I've called my mum to ask after the new dog, but it turned out I had just dreamed the new dog and spent a good 15mins looking for the cat food to feed a cat we don't even have.... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

DH came home, he cleaned out the cupboard under the stairs (almost done but he had to go out so it still needs finishing :mad:) and now dinner is made (mac and cheese) and just waiting for him to come back before I grill it to melt the cheese and crisp the bacon. 20mins he said... 20mins ago....

And I'm so looking forward to being a lobster tomorrow and tuesday. I remember the steroid injections hurt and make you flush all over. Oh joy.

Only works if your ready to go into labour anyway. So you'd go into labour whether you had sex or not. I say take full advantage of the miracle that is the big O during pregnancy, it gets stronger the further on you get! TMI??? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Sorry still catching up. Lil Miss regarding the bracelet. I have bought numerous bracelets from Jewellery 4 girls own website. http://www.jewels4girls.net/

They are lovely and really well made. Take a look on their website, you can choose your own colours, design and charm. Think they may even be cheaper than the ones they are selling on ebay. I would hightly recommend the bracelets and the service.

Tia i had noticed that hehe and it helps with all the aches ive been getting must be the endorphines. I will keep going after speaking to the midwife if she gives the all clear that will put a smile back on his face

Tia - The Steriod injections do really hurt don't they!!! No-one warned me and i just kept saying to the nurse "um....thats burning.....thats REALLY burning" and just kept nodding at me and saying "yes it does that"....

what are the steroid injections for?!!!

I had these into my scar tissue when it was still red and raised and it hurt like hell! Take paracetamol before you go in - it might help
