Hi, can I join? moving over from the less than 12wks thread. Had my 12wk scan two weeks ago and all looks ok, so have an EDD of 7th May.
Starting to feel a bit more real nowStill being sick at least twice a day though, which I am really hoping will stop sometime soon, as I'm on anti-sickness tablets and would like to stop them as soon as I can.

What was the comment Kirsty poos? Fingers crossed! Hope all goes well!! Hj279 welcome!! I'm good thanks, 19 weeks today, half way mark nearly, hopefully!! Decided I'll probably work until the start of March and apply for leave from then.0

Welcome HJ279
There were quite a few about abnormalities and it upset me a bit and made me worry - I had really been looking forward to tomorrow but I'm quite anxious about it now!
Got my flu jab first though so that should take my mind of it for a few mins at least...
I'm starting to plan mat leave etc as I need to let them know a vague plan in the next month really - I think I'm going to do mat leave from 5th March all being well - give me 3.5 weeks before baby arrives in theory....although we shall see!Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭0 -
Exactly when I am planning to start mat leave too! Yeah the 20 week scan is quite in depth and 'serious'. It's natural to be nervous and good to be informed but no point in worrying about what may or may not be said :-) Are you going to ask the sex?0

Well the scan went brilliantly and baby is measuring perfectly for dates. Heart, kidneys, bladder etc all looking good and I'm very relieved!
We actually found out just over 3 weeks ago that we are having a little boywe were staying with OHs parents in New Zealand and wanted them to feel more involved even though they are halfway round the World so we found out with them
She did confirm it today though

Great news Kirsty!!! Amazing.
Goodluck Cherry!!
Mine is on the 27th November at 22 weeks 1 day, arrrrggghhhh0 -
I’m also counting down to mine on the 27th. Though I’ll be 20+6. Originally I was down for 11th December at 22+6 but I managed to nab a cancellation spot to get it earlier.
It’ll soon come around x0
