I'm struggling with clothes too! Luckily my office is very cold so it doesn't look weird to have a big jumper on, I'm living in thick tights, skirts done most of the way up, disguised with a long vest top and a loose jumper. My bloating has gone down a lot though, a couple of weeks ago I looked huge but it's gone along with most of my symptoms. 11 weeks today!

I told my boss today, thought I should give them the heads up in case it goes wrong again as last time I needed lots of time off and they weren't expecting it. Only six more days and hopefully I can tell the world! And buy some new maternity jeans!!!

Myname I would be dying in thick tights, I'm always boiling hot!

I'm wearing a jumpsuit today but I look like I've got a massive pot belly which is a bit embarassing :S

I've just had my 12 week scan Grin

All is looking fine, the baby was having a right old wriggle around but they managed to get all the measurements they needed. The nuchal measurement was fine but obviously we need to wait for the blood test results before we will get told if low or high risk. Baby was measuring 11+4 which I was kind of expecting based on when I think I ovulated but they said they don't change your due date unless it's more than 5 days out which it wasn't. So happy and relieved now!

Oh and here's a pic Smile

Awww fantastic news, what a gorgeous pic!! I'm 11+5 going by LMP but scan isn't until September 2nd! So what is your due date?

maybebabybee · 21/08/2015 10:19

lovely news me, congratulations.

Me624 · 21/08/2015 10:25

Beautiful my due date is 4 March. I am exactly 12+0 today going by LMP, normally in my area they don't scan you until closer to 13 weeks but I am going on holiday tomorrow for 2 weeks so they managed to squeeze me in today which is really good as otherwise I'd have been too late for the nuchal screening by the time I get back.

I had a private scan at 8+1 which just looked like a blob so I'm really pleased it looks like a proper baby now!

Rosieblossom123 · 21/08/2015 10:42

Me baby is gorgeous :) 28th can't come soon enough I wanna see how much baby has changed!

I'm struggling with clothes too, my belly is huge today so bloated and had 4 donuts that didn't help but starting to feel better now since yesterday so happy, only thing that hasn't changed is my moodiness haha started crying yesterday watching eastenders??? hubby thinks i'm loosing the plot haha

IndomitabIe · 21/08/2015 10:45

Congratulations Me!

I love seeing these scan pics, the difference between the 8/9 & 12 weeks is astonishing.

I'm still in bed. Woke up with a headache. I've lost my 4head stick so eventually took paracetamol (nearly threw up taking them) and it got a bit better, but now it's back. Sad

Am also now starving (had a little bit of breakfast earlier) but don't know what I want (and can't muster the energy/desire to go downstairs)

BeautifulLiar · 21/08/2015 11:43

Rosie i laughed at the four doughnuts!!

Indomitable I'm also still in bed, was ok ish yesterday until i had a shower. Nearly passed out in it then felt awful all the way until bedtime when I was spectacularly sick everywhere.

12 days until scan - but feels like a lifetime when you're spending every day in bed and doing nothing! On the plus side I've saved loads of money by staying in all the time and when I'm not feeling sea sick I've managed to read quite a few books :)

Rosieblossom123 · 21/08/2015 11:54

Beautiful i've been craving donuts like mad haha so I gave in this morning and had 4, my boss couldn't believe it!

To be honest I thought because I'm working it'll go quick but it's dragging so much!! :(

sherazade · 21/08/2015 12:06

Hi everyone, congrats on ur scan me what a lovely pic . I think loads of us are having scans next week , can't wait .
Still nauseous here . Story of my life. Cravings are random and insane. Now that someone's mentioned donuts up thread I want one . Dh is away on a work assignment till October , he was telling me about the plane food and I actualy started to crave plane food . Rosie am losing the plot too I cried watching Jeremy Kyle Grin

BeautifulLiar · 21/08/2015 12:07

Oh really?! Ok should probably be grateful I'm not working then :( I'm craving anything really, just get so hungry.

Ok this is REALLY weird but basically... butterflies in my tummy make the nausea a bit worse, so I can't really get excited about the scan, because then I get butterflies, and start to feel sick! I'm the only one aren't I?!

BeautifulLiar · 21/08/2015 12:09

Sherazade - is your DH missing the scan too?

Rosieblossom123 · 21/08/2015 12:20

sherazade sorry haha go and buy some they are so satisfying :) same here, my cravings are weird, yesterday I had curry sauce with chips and pickles, it was so yummy, dp was not impressed Blush everything makes me cry its crazy and embarrassing, sometimes I cry looking at my cats because they are so cute hahaha

Beautiful trust me be grateful I would do anything to be in comfy clothes and watching tv in bed right now. BTW you're not the only one hun everytime I think about the scan I get butterflies and so nervous at the same time I even get it when I'm looking at my scan picture :)

Me624 · 21/08/2015 12:25

I was so nervous this morning before my scan, even though the private one at 8 weeks was fine!

I had a huge plate of curly fries for dinner last night Blush DH frowned at me saying that is not a very nutritious meal for the baby. I said the baby clearly knows what it wants and I must give it curly fries!

Rosieblossom123 · 21/08/2015 12:40

Me dp always says that to me and says I will end up with a 14lb baby hahaha I told him I hope not I'm only 5'2 and size 10 currently Shock

marmitemofo · 21/08/2015 13:42

congrats on your scan me Grin

my scan is on Tuesday, can't wait! there's still a part of me that hasn't accepted/realised I'm actually pregnant and I think it's all the uncertainty of first trimester getting to me. I'll be much happier once the scan is done and I know for sure all is fine.

Celen · 21/08/2015 14:47

Me what a great pic, how lovely Smile

Seemingly overnight my tummy has suddenly popped out and I'm now wearing my jeans without belts! I didn't wear maternity wear til at least 12-13 weeks last time and I'm only 9+5 Shock so feel it's way too early yet.

Me624 · 21/08/2015 14:51

Thanks for all the good wishes everyone. Sounds like there's lots of scans next week to look forward to!

BeautifulLiar · 21/08/2015 16:02

Will be fab to see all the pics and find out 'official' due dates!

Anyone got their scan the week AFTER next?

TriJo · 21/08/2015 16:14

Have mine at 12+3 on 11th Sept, so still a way to go yet. Just had the early one this week which moved me into March!

IndomitabIe · 21/08/2015 16:26

Mine's on 17th, Beautiful

QforCucumber · 21/08/2015 17:04

Mine is Monday the 7th at 3pm, been told I have to see a consultant afterwards relating to my previous mmc, but midwife says if all is ok at scan then I shouldn't be consultant led and instead discharged from them on the same day

AdorabeezleWinterpop · 21/08/2015 18:01

My scan is on Monday. Fingers crossed all is well. I received a letter today giving me a consultant appointment for 10th September so I am interested to see what they say.
