Sensitive post- expecting another little girl ๐Ÿ’–

โ€ข27 Replies

Hi everyone.

We had our gender scan today first time hubby has seen baby on screen.

Baby wasnโ€™t playing ball just like her bigger sister - but after a jiggle about was able to reveal her gender. We think we will call her Amelia ๐Ÿ˜Š the only hitch was her placenta was lying low- I hope that changes.

Patched things up with my mum who apologised & saw my point of view โค๏ธ

Happy Halloween ๐ŸŽƒ

Yeah same I've kept loads and have bought a few bits as we couldn't find any new born or 0-3 but all the others up to a year we have loads and have steriliser just need new bottles as she damaged the teets ,at 6 month she will need a sit me up ring But we have a bouncer and changing unit pram were all set really was considering getting a next to me bed we have a cot but it's too much bending for me after a c section.a little girl is great for me as my daughter is 4 so the gap isn't too big x

That really helps, that is nice age gap, I expect she is very aware of what is happening & feel involved ๐Ÿ˜Š

There will 22 months age gap between Francesca & Amelia.

I think we might buy a few outfits, definitely bottles & double buggy will be essential for taking both girls out together on my own! Xx

I am thank you looking forward to getting 12 week scan in a couple of weeks so hopefully can relax a bit. Love the name Amelia and good news re your mum ๐Ÿ˜˜ xx

Thank you. The early weeks are so tough- particularly after a struggle & spotting. I spotted with every pregnancy- my grown up my grown up son & daughters ( only 1 was a chemical pregnancy- that was severe abdominal pain & the bleeding got heavier) it is very scary to see any blood but it is very common to have spotting in early pregnancy midwives also advised unless in lots of pain with heavy bleeding not to worry. 12 weeks is such a huge milestone. Wishing you the best with your pregnancy Xx

Congratulations Jess i love girls love the name Amelia too. Glad you've sorted things with your mum. ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ’—

Thank you so much. Theyโ€™ll be so close in age only 22 months so hope theyโ€™ll have similar interests. I kept everything of Francescas couldnโ€™t bare to get rid of it ๐Ÿ™ƒ- from changing unit to jumperoo definitely saved a huge amount of money which helps! All of her stuff is in such good condition. I hope the pregnancy is going well & no more spotting. Iโ€™ve spotted with my sons & daughters bloody awful & very scary each of my pregnancies bleeding has got worse had 7 episodes of fresh red with clots with this pregnancy this definitely my last one couldnโ€™t go through anymore too stressful Xx

That's the thing about having them so close no need to give items away, babies don't last to minutes in their clothes so you'll be really nicely prepared there too!! Really ideal coz it does get expensive!! Yes spotting has stopped ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป i think it was mainly coz of coughing loads and also blood thinner. Not sure though!! Got my dating scan on Tuesday so see how things are there. It really is stressful isn't it your bleeding is so much worse than what I've experienced. Glad all is going well though. ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ˜˜

All the best with your dating scan , such a good milestone to get passed Iโ€™m sure all will go well ๐Ÿ˜ glad the spotting has stopped โ˜บ๏ธI think my bleeding was caused by endo & nothing to do with any of my babyโ€™s. Will be thinking of you on Tuesday & hope you are able to have hubby there with you Xx

Thanks lovely. Hubby will be with the kids, its no problem though he'll be in the carpark waiting for me. Kids aren't allowed in the scans!

Yes it probably would have been your endo. Your endo is quite extensive isn't it! ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ˜˜

โ€ข in reply toAllWeNeedIsluv

Thatโ€™s a shame. My hubby wasnโ€™t allowed to attend the dating scan & I honestly donโ€™t think with lockdown he will be allowed to 20 weeks scan which was the only scan he was allowed to attend ( Iโ€™ve got growth scans due to my son being small) Iโ€™m so glad he got to see our baby today. Our hospital & private scans are all saying no to children, mind taking Francesca to a hospital is the last place Iโ€™d want to take her ๐Ÿ˜ณ luckily sheโ€™s not old enough to be aware or think that sheโ€™s missing out. Pictures are pretty amazing tho. Kids are quite accepting of the situation we are in, I think more than some adults! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

My endo is bad Iโ€™m amazed Iโ€™ve been blessed again with another baby. Still shocked! I didnโ€™t expect to get lucky again Francesca was such a miracle that we never thought weโ€™d have ๐Ÿ˜

I found the staff at my dating scan very supportive & really tried to put my mind at ease ( Iโ€™m such a worrier!) Iโ€™m sure the hospital staff will look after you Xx
