Marking place

wetsnow · 17/02/2016 06:39

Morning all and welcome! So many of us.
Realised my 12 week scan is in the easter holidays which actually is great. Mean I won't have to get time off work.

Feeling crap today... not sure if it's cold or bean.

shrops I got both my dates together... seperate letters but arrived on the same day so no.
I think your scan has to be between 11-13 weeks so they can't push it back too much.
Hope you are sleeping better!

Dd is full of beans today... We have a day trapped at home with carpet fitters.😐

Shropitlikeitshot · 17/02/2016 06:41

Thanks Wet!

Just about to board my flight. Already miss my baby.

wetsnow · 17/02/2016 07:10

Aw hope you have a good flight. Xx😚

LillianFullStop · 17/02/2016 07:23

I'm hoping for an early scan too so I'll call in to self refer today. I'm still unsure as to which hospital I want to go with (big decision!) but I assume easy to change? I've read safest bet is to go with the closest one simply for convenience.

Anyone else find they are waking up early? I'm partial to a good lie in and would hit snooze 3 times but the last couple of days I've been waking an hour before my alarm!

Fraggleface · 17/02/2016 07:35

Please can someone add me too?
Fraggleface due #1 c.7 Oct
Thank you

I've started getting terrible nausea the last couple of days and am waking up numerous times during the night. Working from home today luckily but not sure how I'm going to get through busy full time weeks at work when I am this exhausted!
Couldn't get my booking in appt til 9 weeks.

I'm guessing I'm about 5 weeks, af wasn't regular!
My ds is 20 months now, so this should be funConfused
Hoping I have a similar pregnancy, I wasn't sick at all, but need to control my biscuit habits, I was the size of a baby elephant last time, have finally started to back into some old clothes, and I fall pregnant if you don't laugh you'll cry

Can someone add me to the list to please? I can't do it on my phone:

SchnitzelvonKrummsverylowtum, due #2 27 Oct.

Thanks!

I'm having a major stress as I have an exam today, which is really important for my job. I feel sick and headachy, and I don't know if it's stress or early symptoms!

I also feel guilty because DS stayed with my DM last night so I could sleep before the exam, so I haven't seen him since yesterday evening, and I miss him, so I'm teary about that.

wetsnow · 17/02/2016 08:25

biscuit snap I had lost 2 stone and was feeling good. Really don't want to gain too much this time.

schnitzel good luck!

Havetobecrazytolivehere · 17/02/2016 09:14

Hi, can someone add me to the list please?
My attempt to do it didn't really work, iPad is useless at copy and paste!

Havetobecrazytolivehere due #4 10 Oct

Nausea is starting to kick in now, have to keep eating to keep it at bay. Really should be fruit and not biscuits. SIL wants to meet up but worried I won't be able to hide it, this is def the longest I have kept it quiet haven't even rang the midwife/gp yet.

espresso14 · 17/02/2016 09:29

I came off the list too. Yesterday was hard - sick at 4am, 6, 6.30, 7am, and then it came on strong on the bus home at 5pm. Managed to hold it in - and then threw up over my shoes once off the bus. Had to eat all day to control the nausea so I could get some work done - sick of eating, and upset by all the health advice that says "you don't need any more calories in the first trimester". How do you control the nausea then?

I've had to cut exercise as it was making me so hungry and tired and making the sickness worse.

But, today is much better. Only a teeny bit sick today, and didn't need to get up at 4am and start eating to control it. Perhaps 3 nights of 8.30pm bedtimes, eating a bag of crisps at 8am and no exercise have helped!

I'm properly amazed by how quickly some of you conceived - fantastic. I think in infertility world it's easy to forget that lots of people manage to get upduffed very easily, whereas once you're into IVF the idea that you could get a BFP from having some sex is such an alien concept!

MsFiremanSam · 17/02/2016 10:51

Oh dear, I was on the list at the top of the page then dropped off by the bottom!
Not feeling up to doing much with the kids this holiday so bought them to soft play. They're running around like loons while I eat loads of teacakes 😀

Fraggleface · 17/02/2016 10:59

Not sure how we're going to keep this list complete - there seem to be several different versions now!

bananafish81 · 17/02/2016 11:07

Google docs stats sheet? X

LisaTheGreek · 17/02/2016 11:09

Good idea, Banana. I've seen other threads do that too for their months.

Key question - anyone know how to do one?

bananafish81 · 17/02/2016 11:14

I'll look into setting one up - other threads have one person managing the stats sheet but there's so many of us I think one we can all edit would be more manageable!

isthatpoisontoo · 17/02/2016 11:22

espresso I'm getting very frustrated with the official advice, too. I have to eat constantly so as not to be sick (I'm sitting at work with a huge bag of popcorn). I asked my doctor how I was meant to exercise when I got so dizzy every time. She checked my blood pressure, said it was low, then repeated the official advice about continuing to do whatever exercise I did before. I wish I could, but taking a packet of biscuits for a walk is working at capacity for me!

I've decided that there are no points to be gained by making things difficult for myself. I'm lucky that this is my first so I can spend the evening on the sofa, so am going to take advantage of it.

ditsygal · 17/02/2016 11:28

Right, I have just gone through all the lists on this thread and merged them all, so here you go...I havn't gone back to the first thread though, so if any dropped off on there they might still be missing.

bluecarrot that's such a sweet way to tell DP although he really has to do something serious to compete now! Is this your first DC together? It's our anniversary of being together next week and we are going out without the kids. Maybe that would be a good time to tell him.....! I'll be 6 weeks then which is my target due to previous early mcs. I just can't believe I have this little poppy seed growing inside me. I'm not feeling anything different at the moment however I know the bone-aching exhaustion will kick in around 8 weeks.

Should probably ring my GP to find what their process is. Where we used to live I went to the GP and they referred to MW.

Oh, can't remember who said upthread their little one is 20 months..... there's 2.5 years between my 2. It's turning out to be a really great age gap. There will be 23 months between my DS and this baby. Crazy times Grin
