12 weeks scan & update

[Butterfly93]

Hey ladies, a few of you asked me to update on how things went .

That’s what I’m doing lol

The scan was a success!

Baby is measuring healthy and well, low levels of abnormalities.

Low risk of me developing pre eclampsia due to blood tests , next rolling onto 2nd trimester soon ! 🥳🤩

Thank you all for the well wishes and positive vibes ! Xx

Hi Butterfly 93,

I'm only just catching up on the forum.

So glad to hear your scan went well. Its really exciting having a scan done and I'm pleased that everything is as it should be.

Look after yourself and your little family. Remember to allow yourself to rest. Something busy mum's aren't that great at!

Take care for now

Hello Butterfly93

How are you? I hope you are still managing a nap and perhaps making the most of the good weather although it's tiring when you are pregnant. Stay safe. xx

Hey Lilybeth

I’m good thanks hun 🤗🙋🏾‍♀️

Thank god I able to still have my daily naps, matter of fact I’m the last one to get out of bed in the mornings lol

I’ve been still trying to go for walks when possible but not over doing as you said it’s been very hot 🥵

Hope you are well and enjoying the sun ! Xx

Hello Butterfly

Lovely to hear that you're good and managing to have your daily naps .... taking your time to get out of bed is a good idea!

It has been very hot so take care. I'm well, thank you and like to find the shade if it's too warm. It's very hard to sleep in the heat so I hope you have a good night. Xx

[Butterfly93 in reply to Lilybeth]

Hey Lilybeth

Thanks hun ! Very hot indeed finding a shade area is wise, luckily I sleep well in the night so far I pray it continues I guess once I’m off that’s it lol xx

Hey Lilybeth

I’m good thanks hun, starting to make a few adjustments for myself around the house. In order to not strain myself . My 5 year old has also been extremely helpful with helping pick up stuff while her dad is at work. I’m actually 15 weeks with a bump that looks 17 weeks lol 😆 xx
