Thread #2! Welcome everyone! Newbies come and join and introduce yourselves. Wishing everyone a relatively vom free first trimester.

Also fretting here about lack of symptoms! My sore boobs have gone and I am tired but I think that's because my 2 year old was up every hour in the night as he's got the chickenpox.
I'm only 4+2 though so trying not to panic.

I'm so sorry amazing and Cremeeggs.

I am 5wks 4 and don't have many symptoms. I am working from home although actually working is proving to be difficult as I am googling so much and wondering when I will start having sore boobs and vomiting. I really want to be enjoying each day but I have worries. I have a stimulator inside me so for medical reasons I was being shocked, as soon as I found out I turned it off and now just have to wait to see. They have referred me to the hospital to see a specialist asap but when I called today to chase it up they told me because of the bank holiday it could be up to another week. The waiting is really awful but I am grateful to this group.... otherwise I would think I was completely crazy Haha xxx

Also fretting over lack of symptoms, other than tiredness and sore boobs. 5+5 today for me.

I will be 8 weeks on Friday.. so I guess maybe I will just skip the sickness part completely? My mum said she did but I didn't think I could get that lucky (now I'm living it though, I would still like a little bit!)

I had no sickness with my first Glasto but was very very ill with second so you never know.

5+3 today and nausea is kicking in for me 🤢 I wish symptoms were a sign of reassurance for me but I had bad sickness with both mc so really it's just an extra kick in the balls!

So many scans are coming up at the end of the month 😍
Good luck tomorrow glastogal

I'm due the day after you fishfingers and I have no symptoms either really. But with my 1st on day 1 of week 6 morning sickness arrived from having nothing to severe sickness!
I ended up being signed off work for 6 weeks with both my previous pregnancies. Hoping for different this time :)

Thanks tootsy, fishfingersarnies!! I'm sure if I was sick I would be paranoid too. I'm just a natural born worrier!!

cremeeggs sorry to hear about the bleeding. I hope you get a safe flight and can enjoy your holiday. It's just an awful waiting game unfortunately.

I am 4 + 2 and symptomless too. Am booking an early scan for when I am 7 weeks

Hope you're ok cream and amazing 🌸🌸

I'm on holiday just now and struggling to keep up with this thread! I also have no symptoms yet but only 4+3.

Did a CBD this morning and got my 2-3 weeks, hopefully get 3+ when I use my other one next week. I'm hoping seeing the progress will make me relax a bit but I doubt it 😬

Hi all.

I'm tired and sore boobs but no sickness yet. I'm 5+5 today. Early scan at 7+2 a week on Saturday and looking forward to that for some reassurance as I'm a worrier!

6+2 today and still no real sickness other than being off food at times. Really hoping I'll escape it. Had no sickness at all in my previous pregnancy. Even my tiredness is not as bad as last week which is good because work is full on right now. I'm flying to the west coast (US) in a week.

I'm so sorry cremeeggs ((hugs)) Take care xx

I'm 5+3 and relatively symptomless too. Boobs are occasionally sore, heartburn on and off, tiny wave of nausea this morning but that's all x

Well after my dilemma about my midwife appointment being late, and worry about not getting my scan in before we go away, I've managed to speak to them today. They don't refer for scan until at that appointment, which gave me only 2 weeks until I go away from 13 weeks to a few days into 14 weeks. So after some queries from me, they've brought my appointment forward a week - phew! So I'll be 9+6 at my first midwife appointment and....Hopefully they'll get me in for my scan before I go away now as they will have 3 weeks to do so

Tootsy please can you change me on your list as midwife appointment on 17/5

Thanks to everyone that told me just to ring them to sort it. It was worth doing.

Scans everyone?
I saw GP today, he says pains are nothing to worry about!
Apparently next step is to see midwife at 10 weeks...
I've heard nothing about a scan though :(

Hi feed. See my post below re the local process for me for midwife and scan. It seems everywhere is different. I'm in the East Midlands and my midwife appointment takes place first then they refer you for a scan. Others I've read already have their scan dates now and midwife dates too.

I'm paying for a private scan at 7+2 for some reassurance along the way.

Ah fab, I'm glad you got sorted bluebell

feedmyface normally the midwife refers you for a scan after your booking in appointment

Work isn't too terrible today, I feel rough, but its manageable. I have stopped taking pregnacare and am just on folic acid for now to see if that helps.

I just can't wait for my scan, and then after that I can't wait for this nausea to end!!

Thanks Tootsy!

Yeah bluebell so happy you rang them. It's good that you got moved earlier and they you can be booked in for your scan.

My nausea has been so bad over the last 2 days but has eased a bit today. I've read that apparently you get hormone surges every 48 to 72hours which is the reason your symptoms come and go. Well I'm happy to not want to chuck up my insides for a bit and actually make good without feeling dreadful.

I've booked for an early scan too. 4th may - 7 weeks exactly and the same day as my booking appointment. £89

Just seen some comments about making the booking appointment earlier if going on holiday etc.

I have my booking appt on 25th May and go on honeymoon on 10th June. So this will give them 2 weeks to do the scan before we go away? I'll be 13 weeks the day after we go away so really want the scan done before we go.

Should I get the booking appt loved to earlier?

Hi can I be added to the group please?
I'm 30 and 6 weeks pregnant with my first, due on 9th December!
Feeling ok generally just pretty nauseous and tired which I was expecting!

Congrats Bee!

MummyHenman* I was given the impression that 2 weeks is fine but personally I was worried as I know those two weeks for me were really busy with other appointments for things so I wanted to get the maximum time possible. I guess it also depends on the area you live and what their lead time is at the moment. Could you call your midwife and ask? I don't think it's anything to worry about.
