Dates been pushed back

So I went for a private dating scan today and they said I am 1 week and 2 days earlier than my midwife’s edd. This means I am 9 + 4 rather than 10 +6. Should I be concerned

Mines the same :) also happened with my last Baby. Just means that you didn't ovulate exactly when you thought or maybe your cycles are a little longer than the 28days they use.

dating scans that early can be inaccurate. the baby is small so it’s hard to get the right measurement

the NHS 12 week scan is the one they go off as that’s your official dating scan x

I was the same, my midwife said I was 11weeks based off my last period, but I went for a scan today and I measuring at 9w&5 days, you may of ovulated late which is what I think happened to me

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Little girl turning herself sideways in next to me

My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!

Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Caffeine addiction suuucks. (Coffee)

I'm off of literally everything. Don't smoke, no medicine, don't drink except VERY rare occasion, nothing. I drink a large coffee everyday (usually mcdonalds or 7 brew)... or a couple cups of coffee at home if I don't get out. Today I had neither and I was OUT FOR THE COUNT. Awful headache, no motivation, throwing up. Then I drink coffee and it's instantly better. 🙃 coffee is one hell of a drug I tell ya.
