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

Ohhh thank you 60 I hope you find that reassuring amazing !

Amazing As I had fertility treatment I read endlessly about timings and it can take up to 12 days for the egg to implant, so your dates could well be out by several days. Keeping my fingers crossed for you xx

I feel rubbish/drained, found work a real struggle. Does anyone else feel cold at all? My hands feel so cold . Worried that I'm not throwing up like some of you, hope it's not a bad sign. I do feel sick at times though although hasn't been as bad Easter Sunday (yet).

Birdbrain everyone else in the house wanders round in t-shirts at most, the heating is set to about 22 degrees. Yet here I am on the sofa wearing two fleeces and huddling under a blanket. I hope it's hormones and not a cold coming on!

canthelpdancing - my eating has been a bit rubbish tbh! I was so active before IVF and had to give up running and weight lifting.. they were my stress relief and I seem to have replaced them with food 🐷🐷 really need to sort myself out! Spoke to the fertility nurse today and she doesn't want me returning to running 😫 but I'm allowed back to the gym if I take it easy. So I'm going to jump back on the healthy train!! I lost 8 stone before IVF and have put 2 back on since October 😳 can't keep on down this road!!

60 Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one!! I guess it must be hormones then. Hopefully we'll both start feeling warmer soon xx

Glasto you've done amazingly well; well done 😍

I just don't wanna put any unnecessary weight on..so I dunno if my lack of appetite is a knock on outta fear, or if I do feel genuinely nauseous - my Mediterranean rice was lovely btw but I'm stuffed now, on what is basically a handful

I was supposed to be at Pilates tonight 👀 but I'm locking myself in the living room and watching Pretty Little Liars instead 😍

zaber I'm like a wretching mess at the moment and struggle with pretty much everything. Luckily the spew hasn't come but I feel like it's about to hit hard and nasty!! I've been coping by eating little bits small and often.

bird and 60 I am so cold all the time too. I think the heat is all around the uterus at the moment and that's how it feels. Brrrr!!

Thank you 60. You lot are so lovely. I'm still confused as I got a vv faint bfp at 12dpo. I can't imagine I would've seen much before then, but that would mean my dates couldn't be too far out. I am torturing myself with dates and symptoms and measurements. I really hate this. Seeing the pain I'm in I would've hoped dh may have offered us another try but he is pretty adamant not, so if I lose this baby I lose the chance of the 6th person in our family .

@BirdBrain85 I've been cold lots too! Hubby hates it when I put my cold feet on his haha!

Mostly my hands that are cold though!

YY to being cold. What's that all about?
Currently taking a hot bath to warm myself up hand and feet are freezing!

Amazing
I'm sorry you've not had the news you wanted I can only imagine how difficult all this waiting around must be I really hope you get better news at next scan and dates are just out.
I don't know what to say about your husband not wanting to try again I can see how that must make all this so much harder I think I'd be trying to take it a step at a time though and just see what happens for now, I hope either way it works out for you all.
Look after yourself!

So on top of no cooker (still) ... we now have no hot water.

I literally just want chips and a bloody bath. I give up. I'm going to bed.

AND I even used the 'I'm pregnant and miserable' card. Got bugger all sympathy too.

Another cold person here

Zabe
That seriously sucks. I'll take an extra long bath for the both of us!
Also got an email- yes email from the midwife asking me to call them tomorrow as they have my scan and booking in dates all very exciting but don't know why a)they didn't just call me and b)why they couldn't have told me over email when they were.
All very odd.

Amazing I'm literally keeping everything crossed for you, I can only imagine how you feel xx I'm suffering terribly with anxiety myself, been up since 2am and can't stop thinking about that CB digi test. I'm literally worrying myself sick even though I know it's possible things are still ok.

I'm suffering from cold too...but then I wake up boiling and flushed on a night.
Still no nausea or other symptoms

60 and bird me too! I've been freezing for days. But it is cold out and I am doing a lot of sitting around whereas I'm usually rushing around so maybe it's that.

Zabe I am coping badly with the sickness. It's worse than my previous pregnancies and although I promised myself I wouldn't put on so much weight this time, the only time I feel human is when I'm actually swallowing food. 😩 I do seem to vomit less when I eat something small more often.

Can't wait for when we all start glowing 😜

Another one for being cold here! No vomiting yet just nausea but only 4+5 so it may still be to come.

I've been feeling cold all day today too, currently hiding on the sofa under my blanket!
I'm feeling stuck in a miserable rut today, nausea hasn't eased at all and I'm ashamed to admit I had a cry earlier on 🙈 bloody hormones. My mind won't rest at all and when I try to relax my brain keeps trying to prepare me for bad news. I get that I sound absolutely crazy! I'm getting my body pillow out for tonight, I was struggling to get comfortable last night with this dodgy feeling stomach. Blahhhhh.
1st tri is so stressful and sucky!

Cham I completely insist you have a bath on my behalf! I got a face mask and everything especially 😂

What a high tech midwife you have!

Tiredness is gone and sore boobs are gone. Really trying not to worry! Anyone else had symptoms disappear? 6+4 tomorrow

Evening everyone.
Amazing sorry to hear your results aren't all that you expected but it does seem like everything is not clear at this stage so fingers crossed for you for next week. It must be so hard so please rest assured you're in my thoughts

I've got the coldness too. Not all the time, just here and there I get sudden chills.

No sickness here but a bit of nausea after eating.

A relative asked me this morning, outright, if I was pregnant because they had a feeling! I denied it because I don't want them to know yet and now feel guilty for denying it

5+6 today and time is going so so slowly.

Amazingrobot I'm so sorry that the wait continues, keeping everything crossed that there was just a delayed implantation and everything works out. As others have said your husband's attitude must be putting an extra layer of pressure on you in an already rubbish situation, that must be incredibly challenging. I'm sure he has his reasons but hope that he can support you through this.

Zabe that sounds a bit miserable :( washing my hands under the really hot tap at work has been getting me through today, I'm always cold but definitely feeling it more at the moment!

Tootsy I hope you're feeling better now, first trimester is definitely very painful - I hope you manage to switch off a bit at some point and get a decent night's sleep

*Zabe you need to compensate for no oven by having a takeaway! Unless you're also feeling sick....! I had to come home early from work as I was about to vom all over my desk. And then I came home and had to snuggle under a blanket to warm up. Pregnancy symptoms are weird.

Meant to tag zaberwocky in that last one
