Yay pearl! You must be pleased!

Did they change your date? Or is that our original date?

*your

re: appointment at hospital - not as far as I know - I'm finding it really hard to get information! I phoned the receptionist for exactly that reason and I went through all this and how everything has led me to believe that a booking in appointment was at least 30 minutes. I'm certainly not going to be bullied out of the surgery if I've still got questions. The receptionist assured me this was how my surgery did it, it would be the same with the community midwife, and that this particular doctor was seeing 3 other women that day as well.
I have had previous concerns with this surgery: admin errors and rubbish asthma care. Hence saying that perhaps I should move GPs.
I know many of you think I'm being ridiculous, but it's my first pregnancy, I don't know how it works and I can't believe how blasé everyone seems to be about it all.
A positive sign, however, was I had the appointment with the doctor on Monday and my letter for my scan came today.

I don't think you sound ridiculous. I think your doctors sound ridiculous!

Well...you'll only find out by turning up and seeing how your appointment goes! Good luck with it!

doctor yes they moved my date back a couple of days. Yes I would be concerned as well, 10 minutes is not long at all. Have you phoned the hospital directly to find out if you can book in there ? How easy is it for you to change gps?

If you can't do anything about it. Go in with your list of questions and then ask for an additional appointment if you run out of time.

Oops jaykay yes they changed my dd back a couple of days :)

Oh Pearls that's great news!!

Doctor I think all areas and doctors seem to do things differently. I have my MW appointment on Monday and I was told it would be about an hour, no idea when I'll get my scan date.

I'm getting a cold :( Does anyone know how much Vit C is safe to take in early pregnancy??

Wow we are a chatty bunch - or rather just full of helpful information, advice and wisdom that must be shared, like cake or bottles of wine...

Someone said about all needs becoming instant, hunger, weeage etc. Really (really!) need to get DH to understand that one. He's very laid back normally, bless him, and I do love it when he does lovely things like make me dinner, but right now when I'm hungry I need feeding or I'll be nauseous again. Which he gets sad at cause I'm suffering! Bless.

Being made to sneakily go and see H&S officer tomorrow. Nothing like being timely with this sort of thing - I told tutor a few weeks ago as soon as I knew (suspecting H&S issues) but now I have like 10 days left! Fingers still crossed I don't vom on the examiners...

Hi, room for another?
Am pregnant with third, was unplanned so just getting my head round it. Had 3 false negatives after period due date which was wierd, still quite surreal.
Telling doctor tomorrow, will be 7 weeks. DD 12 July.
Symptoms- lot less than last 2 , probably explains why not fully feeling pregnant. V tired (fell asleep on tube today and missed stop!) But constantly knackered with work and kids anyway. Bit nauseous but eating regularly. Main thing is digestion slowed down, feel dreadfully sluggish. Already looking bit podgy! Have cold at the minute too!

Museum

welcome and congrats! I'll add you to the list tomorrow.

So cross with myself

For the last month I've been worried about the baby and now I find out the risk has gone then I start worrying about my weight again.

I wish i could just be grateful and not so selfish. I think I deserve a cloud hanging over me.

Well ended up over at hospital last night, sickness has became unbearable and nothing like i was with my dd, so they wanted to check my blood pressure and my pee, all ok thank god but been put on anti sickness meds, praying they work!! Being in the same place where i gave birth only 10 months ago was frightening, as soon as the smell hut me i was back there, i don't no if the fear of the unknown or knowing what to expect is worse!! Haha ive got 7 months to mentally prepare i suppose!

So sorry for those with awful sickness :( my new strategy is to eat myself out of it so this morning have had a bowl of cereal and three pieces of toast but finally don't feel quite so sick. Now to get this work finished. Happy Friday everyone!

mrsc oh no! That sounds terrible. I hope the meds work for you

I m so miserable, what have I done, I struggle to cope with two children how on earth will I manage three? I m having an awful day today.

Oh turnwest, it's so unfair isn't it sometimes? I'm so miserable as I'm probably about to have my 4th MC, and want nothing more than a 3rd child, and you are feeling overwhelmed at the thought of it!

Please be gentle on yourself, your hormones are probably playing merry hell with your emotions and what you're feeling is really normal.

Hope you start to feel better soon

Room for a little one?

Such early days - EDD is 30 July but desperately need somewhere to obsess! Can't seem to stop peeing on sticks...I am an hpt loon.

Already have a just turned two year old. Boy, will 'mat leave' be different this time round as a sahm!

Despite my tendency toward the contrary I'm thinking positive and have booked a mw appointment and private scan the day before Christmas Eve so that we can be a bit more confident telling family why I'm not knocking back the prosecco over Christmas.

Lovely to meet you all!

Pearls I'm worried about my weight too - Worked hard to get where I am (which is still fat) so I know how you feel. The bonus is I just look my normal fat self rather than pregnant!

Mrsc hope the meds help.

turnwest have you got anyone to talk to in rl?

No sickness here yet just a bit queasy when hungry. I feel really well apart from SAD, worrying about medical complications, changes at work that may mean I lose my job and trying to hide pregnancy until scan.

Congratulations and welcome to the newbies! So many of us on here now!!

MrsC hope the sickness meds work for you!

Turnwest sorry you are feeling :( I'm worried about how i'll cope with one! I'm sure it's hormones making it worse, you will be fine

Jaykay how did your MW appointment go?

I've got a stinking cold :( Got my early scan tomorrow and I'm getting nervous that there wont be anything there, as I still don't have any symptoms other than tiredness and hunger!

Hope everyone else is ok!!

I'm really unhappy about my weight.

My starting weight is the same as what I was at 9 months+ with my two youngest.

after DS5 I lost 2 stones in preparation for next pg and I put it back on with DD, which was all fine - but as DH took ages to decide if are going for it (and was leaning towards no for a ling time) I didn't bother to try and loose weight again.

I'm kicking myself for "waiting for him", but I was in a bad place emotionally so I was comfort eating.
he eventually changed his mind to TTC, but we had so many arguments by then that I was doubting if getting pg again is even a good idea.

we agreed to try for 3 cycles on a "it's meant to be it will happen" - basis and it coinceded with kids going back to school do there was no way I could concentrate on myself and dieting...

don't get me wrong, I'm happy about this baby, but I'm incredibly unhappy about circumstances, stressing about my weight and I blame him for wasting precious time that I could have spent loosing weight before TTC.

I'm probably being unreasonable, but I don't feel prepared, I hate my weight, I'm angry with DH and I feel really sad.
and that's not how I'd want to be right now, so that makes me feel even worse.

I don't know how to get rid of those bad feelings.
unless I either start dieting or start being sick so I can loose some weight before ballooning again.
I'm so unhappy right now I can't stop crying

I'm with you on the weight issues. My weight is really bad. DS4 is still only little and has a lot of health issues so I put on weight after he was born because I was just eating rubbish. I'm also worried about my C-section scar and whether it will cope with the strain of another pregnancy so soon.

Oh no. Lots people seem down today. Look after yourselves and FX tomorrow will be better!

Thanks mrsb. It was fine. Took almost an hour and a half. They took loads and tested my urine. They asked lots of questions - but very few about DH.

I now have a mountain of paperwork to read!

They weren't very interested in my early scan dating or that Im having a private nuchal scan. So they're sending me my 12 w scan letter this week (no idea why they want one).

As expected, Ive been referred to consultant - thyroid and Bmi - but also anethatist (sp?) as I have historic back problems.

Not trivialising any of these worries but remember that your hormones are giving you quite a kicking at the moment, which makes any bad situation seem bleak. You just know there'll be a fab MN weight loss thread to help us all out afterwards!

Our bodies are doing amazing things - let's be nice to ourselves :-)

My nipples are beginning to look weird. That is all.
