That doesn't sound good buttermilly. How far along are you? I find my nausea slowly getting better just now, I'm 6+3, however I seem to be starving all the time. I've been in work since 7.30 and I've already had a breakfast bar and a yogurt!! I feel if I eat more I'll be too large when my bump shows!!

Is it the baby making me more hungry or is it just the fact I'm a pig? Lol.

Blueblink · 26/03/2015 11:22

I'm sooooo tired! I've been (quite smugly) feeling really good the past few days! I had my first appointment with my GP yesterday who is super excited that I am expecting and was very re-assuring after I suffered with early bleeding a few weeks ago. she's also getting the ball rolling with my 12 week scan before I got to see the MW next week. For those of you that are still getting bleeding and spotting do push to get an early scan. I had one at 5+1 last monday and we were able to see a tiny heart beat which really was re-assuring and they (as in healthcare professionals) keep telling me the risk of MC drops alot after seeing a HB.
I'm now 6+5, mostly feeling OK but I look super bloated especailly by the end of the day. My DP pointed at my belly when I got home from work last night and said "you've been a bit busy" oops!
Can not wait for this 12 weeks to be over already!

thatduck · 26/03/2015 11:28

I've still not got any real symptoms except a little bit of cramping, I almost want something to make it feel real. I'm seeing the gp on Monday as I already have ridiculously low iron and vit , I just want something to happen now :)

Fitnotfatthistime · 26/03/2015 11:43

Thanks Bowiesjumper for adding me to the list :)

Ashboo hope all okay x

annatha · 26/03/2015 11:43

So yesterday I was moaning to OH that I didn't feel pregnant. Last night my body responded by making me throw up halfway through trying to get my dd to bed (I wasn't sick on her! I had to pop her on the bed looking confused while I ran off though) and this morning I feel very hungover.

Hmmm I don't think my teeth are going to survive this pregnancy, I have to suck sweets all the time not to throw up! Also how is everyone else managing to snack on digestives and crisps without their two years olds spotting?!!
My husband bought us holiday in Europe to a place I've always wanted to go from the 1st April, but I don't see how we can go! I feel queeZy all the time, and it's only the meds holding back the vommiting! It takes me all morning to leave the house, the though of being somewhere strange scares me silly, I need home comforts! But I fee so guilty and my husband will lose all his money sad

Ashboo, hope you feel better soon. The first trimester can be hard enough without a demanding job. I don't know how I've got through some days over the past few weeks, but we'll get through it ... Smile

Nomore I've got my 12 week scan date on the 11 April when I'll be 12w exactly! Smile.

ashboo76 · 26/03/2015 12:36

Thanks crumblina I didn't realise I was such a good actor ... My colleagues don't have a clue that I have the worst period pain feeling ever. I'm not crippled (being strong) but should I go and rest will it make a difference to the result?? Watching the clock I finish at 3.... I'm washing up all day btw but it's quiet

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 26/03/2015 12:45

ash - really sorry to hear this.

Is it possible to go home? You must be feeling crap and might want to go to the EPU if you get anymore spotting. Even if not, I think you're quite entitled to go home as its really hard having to pretend that you feel wellat work Flowers

BowiesJumper · 26/03/2015 12:46

I'm having waves of nausea, but no sickness as yet. I'm trying not to eat to keep the nausea at bay, because I've put on a frightening amount of weight in the past few weeks already because I've been chomping whatever I like. I have a rubbish metabolism so I'm trying to be good now. ARRRG is all I can say!

cryingbabymess · 26/03/2015 12:51

Bowiesjumper I literally can't stop eating! I've put on loads of weight in 2 weeks! It's crazy! I've got a bump already but its a food baby rather than my actual baby! Confused

halestone · 26/03/2015 12:53

Ash i think if you can go home, go home. This maybe your body telling you to have a rest. Ring the EPAU if your worried.

OP posts:
ashboo76 · 26/03/2015 12:55

Thanks Gobbo forgot to mention I'm the boss it's my tea shop if I go home I have to tell them why and I don't want to. Also they won't cope without me at lunchtime but I'm off tomo. Pain no worse and no more red wipe last hour ... Sorry for tmi

TakesTwoToTango · 26/03/2015 13:00

Oh ash if you have cramping and spotting, I'd just go home and rest. No job is worth that stress (speaking as someone who regularly has to work all-nighters to meet deadlines etc).

TakesTwoToTango · 26/03/2015 13:02

Surely you don't have to say why? Tell them you have really bad Stomachs cramps, think you may be coming down with a horrid bug up don't want to risk passing on in a food environment.

TakesTwoToTango · 26/03/2015 13:04

Still spotting here but touch wood, no worse. Still feeling sick but not being sick yet. Am finding it a bit difficult with food though. 6+4 today.

S1mmy · 26/03/2015 13:04

congratulations everyone! Am so excited for you all, i feel like I'm a part of a special club :)

Everyone talking symptoms some people more extreme than others. I've just got mild cramps (that's normal right?), some weird sense of smell and feeling ravenous, then immediately not hungry at all.

Waiting for an early scan date from my EPU to check everything is ok. From my past experiences, ladies, if you feel something is wrong or you are concerned then be pushy to get seen by a dr/ EPU/ midwife asap and seek advice. 1st trimester is always a scary time and there's nothing worse than a medical professional being blasé about things.

Good luck with your scans xx

NoMoreSashimi · 26/03/2015 13:33

Yey Crumbelina counting the days!

heloharris · 26/03/2015 13:38

For the past few days I've been gobbling down Walkers Baked crisps - two at a time - they're only small....

We've got a walking holiday in the Highlands a week on Saturday. Am not sure how I am supposed to hike for 7 hours a day but I really don't want to disappoint DH as he has been looking forward to it for so long. Eek!

FlossyLil · 26/03/2015 13:53

Ooh, can't wait to get my scan date. I'm hoping it's before 1st of May, as go on holiday then for a week and I'll be 14 weeks by the time I come back. All being well, would love to announce it before I go. Hoping the nausea will have passed, so I can enjoy my hol!

Know how everyone is feeling with the food. If I don't eat I feel nauseous, so trying the lowest calorie things can find, but everything I can stomach isn't v.healthy. If the MW weighs me next week at my booking appointment she'll be raising her eyebrows. Hope they take off a few pounds for clothes!

Lauramum23 · 26/03/2015 14:06

Hello everyone busy day here today! No rest for the wicked eh!?
I'm not going to add my stats till after a scan as I'm not sure on my dates anyway after miscarriage last month so it will be exiting to know a date tbh.
Just a thought but how about a Facebook page a bit later on? Maybe once we have all got past the scans etc? Might make things easier to follow? For those who want to doesn't matter if you don't fancy it. Smile

ashboo76 · 26/03/2015 14:07

I've come home from work and faked a stomach upset but am bleeding with some clots and heavy period pain one min crying next positive ... Waiting to see how I am at 5 when DH gets home xx
