Oh my choccy is he/ she far away. Bet it feels strange

Helbelle75 · 18/09/2016 05:27

Thinking of you jaffa. I'm sure they will see you tomorrow. Hope you're managing to get some rest.

SharkBastard · 18/09/2016 05:58

Oh what a worry Jaffa. Really hope they see you sooner

Niks2026 · 18/09/2016 07:52

Jaffa I'm sorry to hear the spotting is worse. I hope epu see today. If not Go to A&E like they suggested. Waiting another 24 hours will be agonising. Keeping everything crossed for you.

My boobs are still soo incredibly sore and heavy. Anyone else had really painful boobs whose slightly further along than me (8 weeks ish) and the pains eased up?? I'm going to have to go out today and get some new bras which seems so early but I'm not fitting in mine at all.

MyGreenSofa · 18/09/2016 08:06

Jaffa - thinking of you and keeping fingers crossed.

Niks - I'm 10 weeks tmrw and boobs still sore but mostly just first thing in the morning. I think most boob growth happens in the first trimester and I already ditched my under wired bras for my maternity bras which are a cup size bigger. The relief!

Jaffa I'm so sorry things are getting worse. Thinking of you.

Niks I'm 9+3 and boobs still sore!! Im will in underwired bras but they are more like massive hammocks than a normal bra!!

choccy I bet that was so upsetting... Hope he/she isn't too far so they can come back and visit you! Or bring you their dirty washing!!

Great scan news hel! And welcome bella!

I stayed up until 10 last night!! First time in forever... I'm hoping this exhaustion is starting to get better!

choccybiscuit · 18/09/2016 08:56

jaffaI really hope everything is ok, thinking of you.
Thanks ladies, still so upset, damn these hormones! Can't seem to stop crying.
jpeg she's about two and a half hours away.... feels like I've abandoned my baby. Sad.....I must try and stay poditive though

Helbelle75 · 18/09/2016 09:18

I'm 10 weeks and my boobs are still sore, but not all of the time. Mainly in the morning.

SharkBastard · 18/09/2016 09:33

9 weeks today and boobs still hurt but more so in the evening when I take my bra off. My nipples are so sensitive so I have to watch out for those!

Nausea still very much a fixture, just wish it would pass now I've so much to do!!!

Welshy11 · 18/09/2016 10:03

Morning ladies sorry been absent for a while my FIL is really unwell.
Hand holding for those with bleeding and I agree with others that going to A&E will definitely put your mind at rest.
Nothing new with me apart from today I can do my trousers up with the button..it's the first time in weeks so bloating seems to have subsided. 9+1 here and nausea comes and goes with sickness in the evening but nothing much else going on x

abercorn · 18/09/2016 10:12

Dear Jaffa, sorry to hear. As others are saying, go to the a&e.

Niks,
Im 8+2, not sure if boobs have grown bigger but they defo hurt.
Got my first mw appntment date for about 10th week and scan for 13th.
No preg symptoms whatsoever, im wondering if at all i am pregnant! Sad

Puggleface · 18/09/2016 10:26

Hello all, sorry I been a bit quiet the past week. I've just been so exhausted!

Jaffa I'm so sorry to read about your bleeding. I hope EPU will see you ASAP. It's so worrying! Here to hold your hand along with everyone else!

Welcome to all the newbies! April sure does look to be a busy month!!!

I had a terrible nights sleep tossing and turning all night. Think the blob was having a bit of a growth spurt. I had some really dull aches and pains and my boobs are killing me this morning! 10+2 here today. I have my booking in on Tuesday (finally) and our 12 week scan is on the 30th! I really can't wait to get it over and for it all to hopefully be ok so I can tell my mum. I've been feeling very lonely in RL recently!

Strubo · 18/09/2016 10:37

Just catching up! Hi to the newbies and congrats on good scans.

jaffa go to A&E if EPU can't see you today, the worrying will drive you mad otherwise.

I'm 11+5 now, scan is booked for this Tuesday! I was feeling a lot better with the nausea but I feel dreadful this morning, I've not got out of bed yet.

My hip pain has been bad this week as well, ended up taking annual leave on Thursday and Friday so I wouldn't have to off sick again (I've just come back from 6 months sick leave after hip surgery). I had SPD pretty badly in my last pregnancy so I'm worried that it will return and combined with my current hip problems I'll be immobile! Fingers crossed rest will help though.

Cazbg · 18/09/2016 11:57

Jaffa as the others said I would head to a&e saying that from past experience in my area epu only scans during the week... This may b different depending on where u live.

I am 11 weeks tommorow and started having horrible headaches - hoping not a bad sign. Scan a week Thursday 29th.

MrsRhubarb · 18/09/2016 11:59

I've just got a late shift to get through then I have a weeks annual leave, which I am so ready for. Spent the morning heaving, and DD is entertaining herself with endless Octonauts. I really hope when I see my midwife on Tuesday she can give me something to help with the sickness as it's really just crippling.

Theknittinggorilla · 18/09/2016 14:32

jaffa have everything crossed and hope you managed to get seen today. Flowers

I had a solid few hours today where I felt fine - can't believe what a difference it makes. Gave me a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel. Back to full on nausea now but had some blessed relief.

Number4OnTheWay · 18/09/2016 15:36

Hey, I've been really quiet this last week too, exhaustion and sickness has just gotten the better of me. :(
Jaffa get yourself to a&e if you need to, they can take you to the epau and get you scanned (in some hospitals even on a Sunday!)
I've discovered I can only drink water everything else leaves me feeling so thirsty and dehydrated Confused I've also just finished a massive plate if salad and am feeling so much better. Funny because a couple of days ago I couldn't even contemplate salad.
I need to go and properly catch up.

Number4OnTheWay · 18/09/2016 16:13

Jaffa, in my 3rd pregnancy I started bleeding out of nowhere. Hadn't happened as heavy before and I was convinced it was all over. My 3rd pregnancy is currently running around d on the beach happy and healthy! I know it's hard with 3 under 5 (mine are 5, 4 and 2) but rest up as much as you can. Stick on a dvd and make up a indoor picnic and lie on the sofa and relax xx

Bubbinsmakesthree · 18/09/2016 17:00

Jaffa* hope you manage to get some reassurance today Flowers.

I had a couple of days thinking I'd turned a corner with the sickness and misery but it's back with avengence now. It's not just the nausea (which sucks) but I just feel flu-y and awful. Alternating between baking hot and shivering with cold. Really grumpy!

Only planning two children, so just desperately want to get the next few weeks out of the way, get a good result at the scan and then never, ever have to go through a first trimester again!

onecrazycook · 18/09/2016 17:36

Just checking in. Got my booking appointment this Wed when I believe I'll be 9+5. Don't really feel pregnant other than electrified nipples. Only two vomming incidents over a week ago and the odd seasick feeling spell.

RaRa25 · 18/09/2016 19:12

Sending hugs jaffa

ScandiManny · 18/09/2016 19:55

Jaffa really hope you got seen today and that everything is okay Flowers

Welshy sorry to hear your FIL is unwell Flowers

I've had a bit of a crazy afternoon. We've managed to keep this pregnancy a total secret so far. Anyway my Mom, sister, brother and his partner all popped round this afternoon and brother hands me a gift bag that contained a positive digital test!! Grin He'd told Mom and sister earlier so they were there to see my reaction. I cried, gave them a huge hug then made an excuse to pop inside, came back and handed our scan picture to SIL. The look on their faces was brilliant especially when they found out I'm 12 weeks already and they'd had no idea Grin. We've spent the afternoon talking all things baby and everyone is so so happy. Its just been absolutely lovely Smile

Jaffacakes1234 · 18/09/2016 20:24

Thank you for your well wishes. Unfortunately it wasn't meant to be, I got admitted to a&e over night and miscarried today at 11+2, I'm being kept in as I lost ALOT of blood and fainted. I'm numb and shocked. I'll be ok, i need to be back with my kids tomorrow. Thank you for the support and good luck with all your April babies you are all going to make fab mummies. Flowers

onecrazycook · 18/09/2016 20:32

So sorry JaffaSadFlowersFlowers
