gingerbread I know how you feel about everything getting tight! I too only have one pair of 'comfy' jeans left. Also I had a parents evening last Wednesday and just before I went over I popped the button off my trousers.....and they were my biggest pair!! Just going to wear them with longer tops till next week if I can, got my scan on Thursday so if all ok with that I will then invest in bigger clothes!

bradders I sat in nandos then walked to cinema & watched film with fly on my old jeans completely down & jumper pulled over, the shame !

Lots of scans coming up this week, exciting!

haha we need to be comfortable!! I have no shame, I wore the trousers with the popped off button and every time I bent down I could hear the zip moving down! oops!
I have been in my pjs all day today, thank goodness for an elasticated waist!! Hope you enjoyed your nando's and cinema trip, I'm cooking a roast! x

Lol! Mmmmm, roast......

For the past week iv worn my work trousers undone and just had long tops to hide it
Tits iv dine the same as you with bread but when I went to the mw I'd only put in 2lbs but I have been very sick .
Iv not been dick for 2 days again 2 days is a record but today iv not hot dresses at all iv been in my dressing gown and had a 2 hr nap and have woken up feeling crap and now I have 2 dds to bath and hair wash ready for school tomorrow both girls have hair near to bum length , I wish they had bold heads today

Thinking of everyone who has experienced losses - take good care of yourselves.

I've been insanely grumpy today. Poor DH!

I dug my maternity clothes out of the loft today, omg I'd forgotten how comfy they are! And mostly fitting even though not lost the weight from last pg. Will need to buy some new jeans though as my arse no longer fits in one pair And given everything fits well enough to nicely accommodate the bloat bump, I'm not convinced they'll stand up to a proper third trimester bump

Ok. Can you check this works?!
If you click on the link below, you should be able to highlight a row and an "edit" option should appear for you to add your stats.

Fingers crossed it works first time!

Hi Kitty - I can see the spreadsheet but can't seem to add anything. Under the Edit tab, I only have the 'Copy' option available. Not sure if its just me tho

Checking into the new thread. Thanks plinky & kitty for the spreadsheet.

I'm so so sorry to those who had bad news this weekend. It's such a difficult time with so many emotions & hormones. Words don't help but hopefully your RL people are taking good care of you, & you're being very kind to yourself. I never thought early pregnancy could be so challenging.

I have a scan on Tuesday & I feel sick thinking about it. I keep remembering my mmc experience. Though by this point, after worrying about it for so long, I think I'll be glad to get it over with.

High five to everyone bursting out of their trousers- I'm with you. My stomach is huge! I've so little clothes that fit. Getting passed 12 weeks & not trying to hide it would be lovely!

i'm on it plinky!

Hi Kitty I can highlight the row but no edit option appears so can't type anything in xx

Can you try it now plinky?

Evening all,
I have had a shocking day today with nausea and bloating, i've put on about 4lb this week purely due to bloat, i'm hardly eating as my tummy is so round, i look 6 mths gone and the only thing to ease the pain is lying down.
Went to a kids party this morning and gagged when they brought the food out, quick retreat to get a glass of water and after returning home have spend the whole afternoon 2-6pm in bed and actually slept.
Think i may have a routine in my drugs box for sum immodium or renee to try and shift some of this bloat, mite get weighed at scan on tue so worried that this will go down as my booking weight.

Kitty... I dont know how to edit the speadsheet?, can see your stats but not sure how to add a new row. Maybe can only do it on pc? But thanks, and am loving that you have thought about all stats between now and birth!

Think I have fixed it!

Fixed kitty, and can do it on phone, thanks x

One added mine, nice one kitty!

I'm also struggling for work clothes and cannot find my one pair of bigger pants anywhere which is really annoying! May have to invest after scan too!

Thanks kitty!! Looking good, added my details in :)

To all those bloating - feel your pain. I look about 5 months pregnant right now. My weight has ironically gone down by 5lbs through morning sickness, but I've got UP a clothing size. Seriously thinking about buying some maternity trousers!

Hello all! Well I have a definite bump, people have started to notice, but only just over ten weeks! Guess this must be what second pregnancies are like!!
Feeling slightly better though, although the nausea comes and goes in wavEs.
Think I need to buy some maternity clothes!!

Btw - tried my Doppler for the first time today. Managed to find the heartbeat! Recorded it on my phone so I can listen back to it when I'm feeling miserable.

Uterus diag I nicked from here: forums.thebump.com/discussion/8402651/uterus-size-by-week-diagram-anyone-have-it

A good video on how to find the right heartbeat found here:

Iv added mine
I think iv found some dairy I can stomach hot chocolate . My midwife suggested that I eat babybel as one has the same amount calcium as a pint of milk

Loving the spreadsheet! I'll wait till tomorrow to add myself, despite bloat belly still can't believe there might be a healthy bean in there.

Excellent spread sheet! Thanks Kitty
