12 to 24 week pregnancy thread

Morning ladies and bumps.

Well for the last three nights I have slept so badly. I just cannot get comfortable. I keep finding myself on my back and then think about things I've read which say I shouldn't lie on my back so wake myself up turning over and just never seem to be in the right position for sleep. Its driving me mad:mad: Hope its just a phase.

Anyone had a nasty night with SPD? Last night I went for a walk definitely overstretched myself. 12.30am i was screaming moaning and crying and I phones an ambulance at 2am. I threw up and my body decided to completetly evacuate my bowels and my bladder. After the tenth toilet visit the pain calmed to a level where I could lie down without moaning and tossing. Midwife says to take small steps but it will get worse as I am over weight

I still don't feel pregnant - even when baby kicks it suprises me every time! I think Im going to have a shock when I go into labour!

lol, that will be an awakening call and a half won't it.

i did say to my midwife is it normal, i said i don't even feel exceited at the mo, beuase it just doesn't seem real. i said i keep wanting to feel exciting and then i think nah only 18 week's. it too soon. She said it perfectly normal. she said for some mums it becuase they have previous babies, others are just laid back, some it hits in a fews weeks and when it does it really does.

i'm hopinh tho the 20 weeks scan will help. i am only 18 weeks which is still very early.

I do wonder what 'pregnant' feels like..

I was fairly in shock still when the baby arrived.. like it hadn't been long enough.. though with the others I was so busy I barely had time to think about anything being so busy with the older ones. With my oldest I felt big and heavy.. but I never felt anything I could say 'wow I actually feel pregnant'

At the moment I just feel extremely tired... after the tired I feel the need to decorate (girls bedroom this time) then I go to pain and hot and heavy and tired..

jcr .. did you ever feel 'pregnant with your others?

jcr16

yes i did pp, it hard to explain. but i knew i was preg. even with my last baby after 2 neg test i said to hubby their wrong i know i'm preg. i just knew i was.

but after about 6 or was it 8 preg test with this baby, a 12 week scan photo ( all 4 of them) baby kicking, i still don't feel preg. or maybe i mean i still not believing it,rather than not feeling it, if that make sence.

hell i don't know. i know that becuase i fell so quickly, came off pill middle/end oct and was preg by dec, i wasn't expecting to fall so quickly i kept thinking ti was very sureal.

What can i say i'm a women i will never be happy ,lol.:rotfl:

Well I haven't had a period since having the baby and yet I knew I was pregnant this time.. which was very odd.. I just knew

Maybe I am so used to be pregnant it is 'normal'

Hello All pregnant ladies!!

I had my 2nd scan yesterday at 19+3 weeks and it was great and all is well. Except they couldn't see the babies heart properly so I have been booked in for another appointment in April - which is both exciting and nerve racking but I get 3 scans I'm so greedy.
I am overwhelmed with all the different types of pram/cot and stuff to buy. I have been reading the thread for a while and love to hear of all your stories but wanted to drop in to say "Hi"

Do you think, for some of us, the hormones are making us more calm and placid? I've been feeling so calm about it all most of the time. It's most unlike me. I asked husband if he thought I'd been less angry since being pregnant and he agreed. My work is pretty stressful but I just can't get worked up about it these days. I'm not totally chilled out and sometimes have a bit of a blow out but nothing like as big or as often as normal. Suppose it affects us all in different ways.
