evening all!
mrsmugoo your post made me laugh!!! 
"Don't want to keep banging on about it but fuck a duck, it's glorious to feel normal again!! I'm even having a coffee this morning!"
until sometime yesterday I have been feeling horrific for about 4 weeks. in fact I have told anyone that asks that I have been suffering from a virus brought home from nursery by 3yo DS. I was starting to believe my own story!!!! I haven't felt particularly sick but just soooooooo tired. proper "OMG will I die?" tiredness, went off food for 4 weeks too which didnt help my low blood pressure and fast pulse, so I have been feeling faint and truly not quite all there. I could not take it anymore so called in sick last Wed & Thurs, worked from home on my half day on Fri, worked from home on Monday. Went to the office on Tuesday (via nursery drop off) and had to lie on the floor once I had arrived to perk myself up a bit. I was close to tears with exhaustion (I am not a public crier) and did wonder if I would be able to get home again!!! Things did improve enough that I could go to meetings and sound professional (I have a job that requires professionalism, IQ, EQ, quick thinking and all that jazz - talk about pretending whilst feeling like this!!!!).
Then I took my vitamins last night and immediately threw them all up (lovely - 1st actual sickness of this pg) and felt better within an hour!!!!! (it has put me off them though- has this happened to anyone else?)
Felt totes amazeballs today and even took myself off for a swim after work and had a smoothy after.
I really hope the tiredness has gone now. I am 8+3 so am slightly nervous it might come back. I did not have this tiredness with DS. My boobs grew and were sensitive immediately (I Knew i was pg without doing a test as soon as i was late!), I needed to pee loads too but I dont have those symptoms this time just sheer exhaustion. Somewhere between 8 & 14 weeks, with DS, I went off red meat and red wine and had the most awful insomnia. I really hope that does not happen again
I am currently overseas so seeing the gynae obs dr next Monday. DH will be here so he is very excited. I think the dr will do a scan but have no idea what else to expect or even who i can ask...... I had DS in the UK (& will have this one in the UK too because we WILL be back together as a family by then). Different countries do different things, ideally the gynae wanted to see me this week as he likes to see patients at 8 weeks but I dont know if a MW is involved - I doubt it as they see MWs as a little bit alternative here, or for poor people!!!!
