So sorry to hear that ash take care of yourself

I've been having a low down stomach ache and lower back ache most evenings. Nothing like period cramps just a dull ache. Anyone else have this? Should I be worried?

cryingbabymess · 30/03/2015 20:38

I now can't stop worrying about this "stitch" like pain! OH says I'm being silly but ConfusedShockConfusedShockConfusedShock.

MissMrsMummy · 30/03/2015 20:56

crying Just keep an eye on it. If it's severe you need to get checked out. That's what they told me when I rang EPU about bleeding. Fx it's just wind or something Wink x

Mamama31 · 30/03/2015 21:17

So sorry to hear that Ash. Look after yourself x

Missmrs hope your doing ok.

Spinning thanks for everyone's kind thoughts and well wishes. Weds can't come soon enough but it's out of my hands now I just have to see what happens. I'm hoping so much for good news though x

Hope everyone else is doing ok and congrats to the newbies, hope you have a very boring and eneventful pregnancy.

Blueblink · 30/03/2015 21:28

So sorry ash, sending you positive thoughts.
Good luck for Wednesday mamama, will be thinking of you!
I'm also in the "lack of symptoms" club at 7+2, so now I feel like I'm searching for symptoms! I can report nipple tenderness and a bit of food aversion also quite tired so I guess it's not too bad. I have my booking in appt on Thursday and it can't come soon enough!

MissMrsMummy · 30/03/2015 21:36

Yes thank you mamama I am surprised by how much better I feel. Couldn't get over it yesterday or this morning but filled with hope now. Hope you're ok x

SnozzberryPie · 30/03/2015 22:16

Thanks all. That seems like a sensible solution to decide closer to the time although I don't want to drop out at the very last minute and cause a lot of problems.

Heir that is inspiring that you're hoping to be at the count. Do you work for the elections office (if you don't mind saying)?

annatha · 30/03/2015 22:53

Oh ash Flowers take care of yourself lovely.

Anyone suffering with lower back pain? Its literally the base of my spine but laying in the same position for too long means I can't move from the pain and it aches after being on my feet for too long. Had a pretty rubbish back since having DD but it's getting worse.

mrscatmad31 · 31/03/2015 06:40

Toots how unlucky they are both ill Sad hope they are on the mind.
I've had back pain too although it's gone now, mainly just don't like food at the moment
It's my birthday today and going out for a three course meal at lunchtime, can't see me eating much of it!

mrscatmad31 · 31/03/2015 06:41

mend not mind...

Lauramum23 · 31/03/2015 07:53

Happy birthday mrs cat!

Well what a rubbish nights sleep with that bloody wind! First dd woke up then half hour later youngest woke up then I got back off and then I woke up for about an hour. The wind was so loud! So looks like I'll be napping later on!

HeirToTheIronThrone · 31/03/2015 07:55

No Snozberry, I work for my local council in the press office - we have local elections the same day.

Karmanna13 · 31/03/2015 08:40

Morning all,

Wow, I struggle to keep up with this thread!

Ash, so sorry for your loss Flowers

MissMrs and mamama, fx for you!!

I'm 7 weeks today and nausea has finally hit. Really can't concentrate at work and keep procrastinating! Luckily I work from home but I've got a deadline this week and just can't seem to get my head into gear!

Got an early scan tomorrow, got everything crossed that baby is where it should be (previous ectopic) and that there's a heartbeat. This first trimester is just so stressful!

Focusfocus · 31/03/2015 08:44

Missmrsmummy many many vibes and thoughts to you for the next cycle, it's so good to see your strength and positivity. So sorry though that this has happened. Ash and mama - many thoughts going your way as well.

I spent last night with acute heartburn. Not entirely sure why. I am Indian I.e. Used to spice and I'd made some grilled tandoori chicken, my own home recipe, low spice, with plain rice and voila - up all night with heartburn that was strangely sorted with a few grapes at 3 am. Nauseous this morning and trying to down a glass of cold milk and a Nakd date and almond bar as can't be bothered to make breakfast.

CishAndFips · 31/03/2015 09:06

focus that tandoori chicken sounds gorgeous. i had terrible heartburn with ds i lived on constant glasses of cold milk. im waiting for it to hit again but just nausea and some sickness at the moment. still finding cold milk or water the best cures though.

Mamama31 · 31/03/2015 09:35

Thank you for all your kind thoughts. I'm feeling positive today, hoping, praying and believing that all will be well at my scan tomorrow.

ThreeBeanRap · 31/03/2015 09:35

bumpingalong hello due date twin! I could have written your post yesterday, I started feeling a bit queasy for the first time - not really in the morning though more afternoon and evening, boobs are slightly bigger and I need to go to bed early, that's it so far! I am also finding myself really hungry a lot but as soon as I eat I feel full, so trying to graze throughout the day. crying I took a second test a week later just because I'd been away all week with work and it hadn't really sunk in before I left. Take one if it will reassure you but try to relax and rest, I know it's easier said than done.

Mamama31 · 31/03/2015 09:36

And I agree that Missmrs is such a positive person and has got through this difficult time with such an amazing spirit. I am in awe x

Treaclepie19 · 31/03/2015 09:49

Just popping in to say so sorry missmrs, sending you hugs.
I hope all goes well with your scan mama xxx

KittyVonCatsington · 31/03/2015 09:56

Another PD here just having heard about MissMrsMummy and Mama-sorry for the intrusion ladies.

Mama-spinning told us what has happened-keeping everything crossed that tomorrow's scan brings you a little wriggler. Hang on in there today, lovely.

MissMrsMummy I am heartbroken as to what you have gone through. So so sorry you are having to deal with your loss. Am thinking of you and please feel free to PM for a chat if you feel like you need to talk. Lots of hugs Flowers

CoffeeTwo · 31/03/2015 10:19

missmrsmummy sending love Flowers

mama fingers crossed for tomorrow, we'll all be sending positive scan vibes your way.

Mamama31 · 31/03/2015 10:35

Thanks so much ladies! Really appreciate the well wishes from all my old pals, keep praying please xx
