April 2016 babies. Nausea, bloating and wind - feeling HOT!

[Definitelysometime]

Thread two ladies. Hopefully this one will see us through into the long awaited second tri...

It's a bugger (but also very convenient) living next door to a station.

Is it your "proper" scan today raspberry or are you getting an early one?

Early scan due to multiple mc. Am just 8 wk. having lost at 10, 12 and 6 in the last 12months I'm keeping everything crossed

Had my booking appointment at last this morning - everything went fine but had a bit of a wait at the start! 12 weeks today, and have my scan on Friday. Feels like a bit of a milestone :)

That's brilliant carrot!

raspberry I'll keep everything crossed of you, you've been through so much.

So we really are at the same stage. So sorry for your losses. I've had two this year as well and it makes this such a worrying time

Not so positive here. Couldn't see a heartbeat so need to go back again next week to confirm viability. Not feeling confident tbh

Oh no raspberry. Thinking of you and sending positive vibes.

Oh no raspberry. FX for next week. What a worry after everything you've been through already

Congrats on the scan carrot and you as well Tri on reaching that all important milestone!

Oh raspberry, I'm sorry - must be worrying. Keeping everything crossed for you for next week.

Hi everyone

Not been back on since my first post due to app problems.

Sorry to hear of people's sad news. Raspberry, keeping everything crossed for you.

I'm feeling pretty rough, had to leave work early today as couldn't stop being sick. Have had to tell my boss already, but thankfully she's been great. I'm 7+6 at the moment, and this went on until 17/18 weeks with dd. So far I haven't found anything that helps for more than 5 minutes, but I am quickly realising what not to eat.

Not sleeping well at moment as well which doesn't help.

Aghh, sound like such a moaner, but I'm really finding this hard this time. I think it being unplanned hasn't helped, I've got so much to do, but just want to sleep.

So we've done a really stupid thing. Decided we were going to wait a few months before TTC again but got a bit carried away last night and I'm on day 12 of cycle with ovulation twinges. Went and got morning after pill today (right faff on and no longer free) but everything I've read suggests it's not much use if you've already ovulated. Partner putting far too much faith in it but I'm worried it's not going to work and that is terrifying but also exciting and I don't know how to feel :-/

Hello All,

Can I join? I am due on 2nd April too and have my scan on 18th. Cant wait to see little one as s/he is giving me grief with hyperemesis!

Hope everyone else is doing ok?
Raspberry so sorry to hear...fx for you x

Ample be careful that you don't end up dehydrated!

Welcome Peanut and thank you.

I feel sorry for myself with my sickness, can't imagine how bad hyperemisis must be.

Fingers crossed for you raspberry

ample I sympathise, it's hard work and I don't have a job, the madthings have seen me puking and retching so not sure how much longer I can hide this pregnancy, my elder boy may have guessed...

Welcome peanut you have your scan three days before me. Sorry to hear about the hypermesis, are you taking anything for it?

So today I spent five hours at hospital with ds2, this is an ongoing saga as he presents as though he has an inflammatory disease such as crohns or lupus, but doesn't.. So we don't know why he has the symptoms... Anyway more xrays and blood tests for him and I finally got my booking in bloods done after midwife and Dr's surgery failed I went to specialist phlebotomist at hospital.... It took three different phlebotomists five attempts to get blood out of me! Fgs. I have some nice bruises. Am now utterly knackered and feel sick and dh is at work till 11pm.. I need to motivate myself to get the little madthings in bed... I won't be long behind them I don't think.

Fx you get better news next week raspberry.

Hello peanut sorry to hear you're feeling rough.

Sophia1984 I'm sorry if this upsets or offends you or anyone else but I don't think your post was very appropriate on this thread (maybe it was an accident) considering what some ladies are going through or have gone through to get here

Thank God for pregnancy nausea, my DS who wears nappy at night and uses potty/toilet during day shouted for potty did a wee and a poo and i went to get wipes, came back in to him sat on the floor saying potty hat. Got to use the pregnancy nausea as an excuse for dh to clean it all up :D feeling smug! Hopefully that will cheer some of you up if you having a tough time with symptoms.

ashboo I think it's fine that Sophia posts here. She is in the same boat as others currently having issues.

Sophia I would be speaking to your GP's practice nurse or even your GP about contraception if you want to wait to try again. As for the effectiveness of the morning after pill, well it didn't work for us. Based on dates (DH was travelling when I ovulated) it didn't matters for us as to when I ovulated. I am now pregnant.

Well I'm afraid the morning after pill comment seemed flippant to me someone who has t seen or remembered her past posts. So maybe it's me that shouldn't post again. Good luck everyone with their pregnancies and future pregnancies I wish you all much love fir the future xx

Don't leave the group ashboo. There'll be lots of differences amongst us over the months I'm sure. There certainly was in my last group but it was such a support. Room for everyone I say!

Today has been incredibly hard for me. My partner feels we can't have a child now and I took the morning after pill because I don't want to 'trick' him into having a baby so I did it for our relationship, even though I would love to have a baby. I have just been through the trauma of miscarriage at 7 weeks and am struggling with the fear of going through that again. This is literally the only place I am able to talk about these feelings as even my mum thinks I should be on the pill right now. I'm sorry if I offended anyone but I felt like I belonged here because of the support I got during my miscarriage. Thank you want2besupermum x

And yes, I know I sound flippant. God knows why but I ended up laughing to the pharmacist when I told her I had only miscarried a week and a half ago. And then I went back to work and cried in the toilet.

Sophia It does take time to get over a MC. Physically your GP or the nurse can tell you when you can start trying again but emotionally it can take a while to be in a position where you and your OH feel ready to take on another pregnancy.

If you and your OH are struggling with fear of another MC and/or coming to terms with your MC I suggest you talk to your nurse/GP about it. It is very common to have emotional issues after a MC and there are specialists who can help you. I know one friend has never recovered fully from her MC's or her stillbirths and she talks to me about her cherubs on a regular basis. She has had therapy for years now even though she managed to give birth to a lovely healthy boy who turned 5 at the end of August.

poco that had me laughing! Another mother told me this morning how her younger DD dropped her toothbrush in the toilet with both #1 and #2 in it. I laughed telling her I would fake MS at that point if DH was still home!

Middle of the week and this early start is starting to take effect.
I'm on gate duty every morning and I think that's not helping my back pain. By the time I got home I was bent over in pain and having my DD rub my lower back (DP is working all week)
I'm hoping the midwife on Monday will give me something or some tips as the back pain didn't kick in til about 7/8 months with DS

Give me Saturday morning where I can sleep in past 6am

Sophia I apologise if I made your day worse but it couldn't remember you're id on here and based on that small post it seemed wrong. Having had a bad mc at 7 weeks myself in march and other various complications (which make me oversensitive) I'm sorry. Xx

Thank you definitely I will stick around but post less as it's probably safer xx
