mooseville I'm glad it's not just me. There are some people at work that I have very little patience with and now that I'm pg I'm really not in the mood.

We'll be ok though 😆 Roll on the weekend!

MumofthreeandBean · 31/10/2016 08:25

I too have found my get up and go just deserted me!
I told kids no trick or treat this year, they were fine, then a friend asked the youngest along with them, I was so pleased as I feel so mean but I can't stand the thought of trailing from door to door.
Work is another thing, being self employed I can pick and choose but I'm getting so lazy, leaving jobs to the last minute 😂

I really wish I was able to get an early scan but around here they are near £100 and I can't justify it, only a couple of weeks to go, just dreading if something has happened but trying not to think about it too much.
My sickness is less now which is good I think.

Spoke to my dad but still didn't tell him, waiting until after the scan

Morning everyone.

Well the sickness bands seem to be working still. That or it's a crazy coincidence!

Will need to get fitted for bras soon as already outgrown current ones.

Oldest is back at Pre school today so it's just me and littlest. Few bits of housework to do and then can do some exercise and chill.

8w today

Just a quick question for all of you who have had your scan dates through, are they booked in for 11 or 12 weeks?

Sixisthemagicnumber · 31/10/2016 10:19

I have managed to Convince DH that we dont need to book an early scan. He was really keen to have one as we did in my last pregnancy and they are only £40 near to where we live but as I had an internal scan at the EPU last week and saw the heartbeat I don't really want to go for a private scan as well. I get very nervous before scans and although I will be reassured afterwards I don't need the stress that I will have before. Plus I'm not sure having a second scan so soon after the last scan will tell me anything new so even £40 seems a bit wasteful.

MumofthreeandBean · 31/10/2016 11:05

oliversmummy my scan date is for 12.1

Had an awful morning involving the police - not at all what I expected!!

ymmv · 31/10/2016 11:56

gosh MumofthreeandBean I hope it's nothing that has any repercussions beyond this morning and not too stressful.

Trying to catch up on this thread - so busy! I don't feel I know you all yet. Flowers for panda.

and I hope you're all doing well, not too sick, managing to hold your boobs up gently etc.

I've been reading about when you're tell people. We've done close friends and my immediate family - been quite amusing as had only just started trying so I was expecting to drop that into conversation first. I'm feeling better for telling people Smile My sister gave birth at one of my hospital options so after a chat with her I've now referred there.

I'm so queasy. Really doesn't help that our kitchen/living is open plan. I've bought sick bags Halloween Grin as everything stinks.

Oliversmummy mine is scheduled bang on 12 weeks, I've just been fortunate in that my scan dates fall on days I'm working from home (so no rearranging required) and that I managed to get a midwife appointment really early on so I can get my scans as early as possible

NappingRabbit · 31/10/2016 12:13

I have also lost all motivation to do anything. It's all about getting through the day at this point. Roll on next trimester.

Moon it seems to vary by hospital. Mine books your bloods at least 5 days before the scan so they have time to analyse and give all combined results instantly on scan day. It seems more normal to get them by post afterwards though.

My scan is booked in for 12 weeks. I've got my follow up scan on Friday morning though as my one two weeks ago was too early to see more than yolk sac.

themoonandsixpence · 31/10/2016 12:15

I just wanted to add that we've told a couple of people yesterday. My cousin announced her pregnancy and she did her reveal just how we planned to so we're (hubby & I) so hard we had to let her know. I'm so glad to finally be free to talk about bean.

MoonlightMojitos · 31/10/2016 12:32

It's just a private early scan ladies so won't be getting any results from it :), just some reassurance (hopefully!). I think I'll get my 12 weeks scan/screening appointment through some time this week after the midwife has booked me in today. No idea if they are doing bloods today or will do them when I have my scan, I guess ill find out now! I do have a pee sample ready to go haha.

oliversmummy26 · 31/10/2016 12:39

Thanks ladies, my dates are all a bit iffy, I'm either 5+6 or 6+6 today. Booking in next Tuesday when I'll be either 7 or 8 weeks and was going to tell her I'm 8 weeks to get everythign moving a bit quicker but was worried if my scan came through for 11 weeks I might be too early for a Nuchal...

Looks as though you're all getting dates for bang on 12 weeks though, so I think I'll give her my later dates and we'll see our Bubble a bit sooner hopefully Smile

HazyHazyJeans · 31/10/2016 12:42

olivers I'm sure I read that the dating scan can be done 11-14 weeks. I'm not 100% sure though. Anyway, if you are too early, I think they ask you to come back to get it done. Probably best to discuss it with your mw

peaceloveandbiscuits · 31/10/2016 12:54

I think you should just tell the truth oliver and say your dates are a week apart and you're not sure. They will make sure you're in time for tests, there's no need to lie.

Struggling to eat my lunch today Sad.

I've got a tuna sandwich... I'm starving but I don't seem to want anything.

It doesn't make sense!!

Skee · 31/10/2016 13:26

Welcome Max and ymmv! Apologies if I've missed any other newcomers - can't keep up! Congratulations! Star

Hope all's ok Mumofthree?!

How are you getting on Peace? Has your sickness improved any?

I've been wearing travel bands for a week, not sure if they're making any difference, but I'm too scared to take them off!

I do feel a constant ache from wearing them though, so perhaps it's the distraction that helps? 😂

Kitsandkids · 31/10/2016 13:30

I'm so hungry today! I cooked sausages and a fry up with onion, carrot, pepper and scrambled egg for breakfast and within a couple of hours I felt starving again!

peaceloveandbiscuits · 31/10/2016 13:33

Still really sick. Thanks for asking.

OP posts:
MoonlightMojitos · 31/10/2016 13:40

😂 oh peace you do make me laugh, sorry you're not feeling any better.

Anyone want to place bets on how late the midwives are running? My appointment was 1.30 and the girl before me has just been called in....

peaceloveandbiscuits · 31/10/2016 13:41

What's funny? Confused

OP posts:
Skee · 31/10/2016 14:11

Aww really sorry to hear that Peace. I hope you're not feeling too miserable, and it improves quickly xx

puttheteaon · 31/10/2016 14:21

Hi, I'm heading to the docs in a bit, think I'm 5+6, mega excited, mega sick.. Already. This is dc 2, hardly had any sickness with ds so feeling this bad has come as a bit of a shock!! Congratulations all xxx

Skee · 31/10/2016 14:28

Welcome puttheteaon! Congratulations Star

Sorry to hear you're feeling rough too, hope all goes well at the docs! x

MumofthreeandBean · 31/10/2016 14:35

I have just prepared cottage pie, cabbage, corn 🌽 for dinner this evening - I hope I fancy it later!!
I've been munching on plain crisps!!

I have a stitch on my left side,
stretching??

moonlight 40mins??!!

The police thing this morning wasn't what I needed, I turned up to a client and she had been assaulted, in her own home, she was battered and had a broken nose, blood everywhere.
Quite a shock!
Interview with the police in a day or two.
Luckily person has been charged and awaiting questioning in a police cell.
