Ah Miami the bleeding is tough, hard not to be anxious with that going on but hopefully having a known cause for the bleeding helps a little.

Scots best to check just for peace of mind. Hope the pain has improved.

I'm still firmly on the worry bench too - don't feel pregnant at all other than the bloat. Has anybody lost any bloat yet? I am straining out my trousers even with the hair band trick I am very small built so I find it very noticeable but doubt other people will be - or I hope not anyway!

Oh and I seem to get hangry a lot

I am so unbelievably bloated and I have a belly full of gas. Half the time when I puke it's just giant belches coming out. So disgusting.
31 degrees in Geneva today and no air con in our office. I have bought lots of very light linen dresses which are super comfy so no waistbands of any description thank god

pause peanut butter on apple is one of my favourite things in the world...even before I was pregnant! Its my recommendation if you're on a peanut butter binge.

No idea if what I've got is bloat or bump! It's pretty solid but gets bigger as the day goes on. In the morning the maternity jeans I bought are too big, by late afternoon the are the comfiest thing to wear!

Hi all, first time poster, long time lurker! 😉 11+1 - cannot wait to get to scan and past the first trimester. Despite the initial excitement, now just finding it really draining. Constant sickness, an inability to eat anything bar cheese/beans on toast, waffles and salt and vinegar crisps and just generally feeling bleugh...it does get better right?!

Hi Kate!! Welcome...I'd love beans on toast but cannot find them in Geneva. Am making do with other stodge though

Hi Kate!

No beans in Geneva!!! Whaaaaat!

My god! I would have starved without them! Haven't eaten a single vegetable in about 6 weeks - thabk god for vitamins!

I know. I lived off them last pregnancy. Actually here we also have no takeaways and no amazon. Deprived we are!

You sound deprived!! Good cheese and chocolate though, right?!

Hi Kate!! I'm a big fan of salt and vinegar crisps too.. really strong ones ♥️

Lapin, but cheese and chocolate and nicer weather!!

I don't eat beans on toast - brrrrrrr. Never have, never will.

DH - 'Is that all you're eating for dinner? Potatoes and bread?'

(Actually no, I just had some Pringles but he doesn't know that.)

feeling - 😆😆😆 (what flavour pringles?)

Texas BBQ

Hey all. Had a lovely time with family today and resisted telling them just yet. I'm definitely bloated too - not bump like yet just a little podge on my tummy. If I look down it looks huge and more bump like but in the mirror it's just podge like haha.

Welcome Kate.

Hope you got some reassurance scot?

Feeling* that made me LOL! I had BBQ beef hula hoops earlier. YUM!

My new 'craving' is anything yoghurty/milky/creamy. So I bought some kids fromage frais' earlier. Such a big kid

I've been looking at gym stuff too - i think mamlicious or serpahine have the nicest looking. Also Mamas and Papas......

macs, thanks for the tip, I'll try weaning off the frackers tomorrow and replacing with apple.
mrsbluebell I'm loving the custard flavour yoghurts at the minute. Comforting, cold, creamy - tick, tick, tick! 🙂

Frackers? Crackers!

I ate some fresh cherries earlier. I'm normally a lover of fruit to snack on but I've been totally off it recently so I was really proud of myself for wanting these cherries and eating them hehe.

DH bought watermelon, cherries, strawberries, apricots and nectarines home today - think he's trying to encourage me to eat better he would sympathise with your DH feeling

I think I'm getting better with food generally though. Down to my last packet of hula hoops (can't get them in Brussels lapin and my parents brought a load over last time they were here) have only been sick twice in the last week, and at 13+2 trying to persuade myself the exhaustion is heat-induced.

Now craving custard and peanut butter

Urgh, fell asleep then woke up panicking totally anxious

Just in bed now. Pain has disappeared. No idea when it went. Must have been when I was too busy to notice. Still worried that the scan will show no baby and that it's all in my head. Sleep time then up at 7am to trek up a hill and fingers crossed sleep under the stars.
Bluebell I feel your worry. I've just had mars bar cake on the worry bench. Feel free to join. I have plenty.

Glad the pain went Scots. Hope you are feeling better today. Enjoy your camp out tonight.

Good luck to those having scans today. Looking forward to seeing everyone's pics this week.

Good morning ladies! Just catching up on the last few days. Hope everyone is doing well!

Who has scans this week? We have our NIPT test on Thursday; feeling so nervous. I'm 10+3 and still feeling quite nauseous and throwing up 1-2x a day.
