Hi ladies, Just wondering, does anyone know when it is advised to stop wearing underwire bras? I heard something about stopping due to developing breast tissue/milk ducts. Thanks! Also, re the maternity clothes. Try shopping online - new look or ASOS, will deliver here for free (I think new look has a minimum purchase).

Hiya ladies, I haven't been checking this thread because i was given 3rd April as my due date by Dr Anne Phillips but Dr George as the genesis clinic gave me the 31 March...i was 4 days early with my first so I'll be checking both threads...hope thats ok. Saggi 1... Instead of buying loads of maternity clothes have u thought of wearing maxi dresses...i found them so easy during my pregnancy....i did buy a few maternity wear too but its so hrd to find something nice...I'll be looking n Max as they are reasonable also bcos we may think this is our last :| hi MrsDB... congratulations and most welcome to be part of this group too... are you happy with Dr Anne... i am still considering to change to someone else...infact i loved Dr George - he was so much better in communication than Dr Anne... also she goes of on leave every three months... which makes it very hard to plan regular check ups... she is also planning feb/march holiday and may not be available during the delivery, please check i just ordered a few dresses from Asos... yeah i love maxi dresses and still fit into some of my beach wear ... haha but cant pull it off at work... Hiya Saggi1, I totally understand what u mean about Dr Anne, she seems so nice but both times I've been in shes either had to rush me because there's a delivery or loved to talk about her family who r all Drs lol. I also find that its hard to get a word in at times... I'm planning on going home for the birth which is why I think i might just stick with it...shes a diamond compared to the NHS too lol I cnt help u with maternity work wear sorry, I've never experienced it...i hope u find something soon

Morning ladies! Hope you and all your little bumps are well. I had the 12 week scan and all is well with baby. Also found out the s*x of the baby. Wonderful news. I feel so different this time round compared to my first pregnancy. No Morning sickness, tiredness, no break outs on my skin. Had it all the first time round. Feeling very lucky. I am going to City Hospital with Dr Elsa, she is just fab, had my first lo with her.

Hi alowicious, I am also having a terrible time with my skin breaking out. What are you doing to manage yours? I haven't yet asked my doctor what products are safe to use. Thanks. I have chosen Al Zahra Hospital and Dr Yamini. Down syndrome screening done and all clear. Bring on March! It's due to the hormones so there isn't a lot you can do really apart from try to drink lots of water!! I have some witch hazel gel which I put on them every night and by the morning they look better but get worse again throughout the day. Mine are more pimples under the skin which feels like sandpaper to touch and those big blind spots that really hurt :( Can't wait till I start to glow - oh wait, I don't think I ever glowed last time lol!!!

Hello ladies ... Congratulations to the new members of march due date... I just got my Down syndrome scans done today at genesis with dr. George and the results were good and normal. I am soooo relieved that the baby is ok. I was so negative all this time. The scan was amazing ... Just divine to see the baby move.... I really liked dr George as well... Although I am with dr Anne at city , I felt he was more warm... Thinking if I should switch but not sure how that would work out... And which hospital he delivers As of now just cherishing the beautiful images and feel more positive .... Glad your scan went well :) My scan also went well. I am 15 weeks now and I've had a week and a half of a reprieve from the nausea and then yesterday felt really sick again - must have been a surge of hormones. Not feeling the 'pregnancy glow' as yet and my skin has gone really spotty - face, neck, chest, upper back - I feel like a teenager lol!! Welcome to the newbies :) Many congrats! I have chosen American Hospital to deliver in but haven't made an appointment as yet. I really want to be more relaxed with this pregnancy so am following the UK schedule of scans and tests and will not see the OBGYN until just before 20 weeks probably. At 13 weeks 4 days I started feeling the baby move :) Last time I didn't feel movement until 15 weeks but didn't realise that's what it was until 16 weeks. My first pg I had an anterior placenta and this time I have a posterior so maybe that's why I have felt 'it' so soon. We didn't find out the gender at the 12 weeks scan so I need to come up with a good nickname for the baby instead of 'it' lol!! Hope you are all well x
