Hi everyone!

Long time MSE user, currently 18+5 with my second baby.

MSE pregnancy thread was a lifeline to me first time around, and countrybum and I know each other from a fb group that grew from it! I've joined the new one too, as I rarely get onto MSE these days, as generally need to dig out my computer for it!

Seem to have forgotten everything baby wise, now my little one is 4! I'm not having a very good pregnancy this time either! LOTS of morning sickness, then the worst fatigue (iron deficiency diagnosed), and now I can feel the start of SPD rearing its ugly head!

Hope everyone else is fairing better, is there a list of who is on here, and how far gone etc? xx

Hi all, how is everyone, sorry not posted in over a week, has just felt rather busy.

Welcome and congratulations to all the new joiners.

Re the maternity clothes discussion it's really just been trousers I've needed so far and I'm 21 weeks. I have a pair each of jeans, leggings and work trousers. Other than those I've been wearing a few non maternity wrap / jersey material dresses. Tops I've just been in some of my looser fitting pre maternity ones. I can see myself needing a few proper maternity tops soon as the vests that I wear under some of the thinner / lower cut tops / dresses are riding up a bit. Am hoping not to spend too much though so thanks for the Next clearance tip.

I rarely go on fb, but next time I do I'll try to remember to seek out the group.

Sorry you're having a tough time 2ba3c, I felt rubbish til at least 14 weeks, but more recently just had a few niggles, otherwise feeling pretty good. Hope everyone else is well.

I don't think there has been a list for a while. Perhaps while I'm here I'll scroll back and find it to update.

So I've done a new list based on the last info I could find, sorry to any recent graduates I haven't included, everyone feel free to just add yourself in if you want.

Previous ones had scan dates for those with upcoming scans too. Also do people want to colour code if they find out gender? Feel free to add / amend as you like.

Hi

I hope everyone is well, and coping in the heat!

I've got a couple of questions of ladies further along than me or 2nd+ time mums...

First question is when did you start to feel movement? I'm 15+3 and people keep asking but I haven't felt a thing.

The second question is regarding an appointment. I got a letter through for an appointment at the hospital at 23 weeks with no explanation so I've just called and they said it's a consultant appointment. It seems (from Googleing) that consultants are usually if you've had problems in a previous pregnancy, blood pressure issues etc but this is my first pregnancy and my BP and other vitals are all fine as far as I know. I've got my 16 week midwife appointment on Monday so I'm going to ask what it's about but just wondered if anyone else had this appointment?

TIA
