@flossyfloss ooo were abouts? Xxx

Iamchanging · 29/06/2017 10:58

I'm just taking folic acid on its own at the moment as I'm getting loads of vitamin D with travel for work. I've been on it for ages so don't think it will be that. Got pregnacare waiting at home so I hope it doesn't make it worse! To be honestly I've had this issue on and off for the whole pregnancy, but it's only in the last few days I've been getting the cramps as well.

Victoriaaaaaaaa · 29/06/2017 11:19

I'm getting another sick note tomorrow I feel so bad for work! I never have time off :(

Roseandbee · 29/06/2017 11:52

@flossyfloss have u still not heard about your harmony result, I figure I'll get my closely after yours seeing as I did it on the Sunday

I'm also getting a bit more cramps lately a lot of it's to do with bloating and when I was puking before got a real twisty pain

Roseandbee · 29/06/2017 11:53

Victoria if I didn't work part time from home I'd have had sick days too as it is I can go to sleep for two hours and finish off my work day later as I'm flexi time

flossyfloss · 29/06/2017 11:54

Not yet Rose Sad the wait is killing me!

weasledee · 29/06/2017 12:14

I've been signed off a month now as the HG is so debilitating, luckily work are very supportive. Must be terrible for those who don't have a supportive boss :(

EekThreek · 29/06/2017 12:52

Is anyone else midlands? I think i might be the only one?

@Victoriaaaaaaaa I sympathise with the tiredness, i feel like I'm wading through treacle. Everything takes so much concentration which wears me out even more, then I never feel like I've slept enough. I look forward to the weekends when I can have a nap (if DS does)!

Victoriaaaaaaaa · 29/06/2017 14:15

Got given some gavicson on prescription today and included in my prescription bag was a box of contraceptive pills?!

Iamchanging · 29/06/2017 15:31

Well they might come in handy after the baby I suppose Victoria?!! (Clutching at straws!!)
I'm sat on the plane starting my epic 20 hour journey back from Korea. So glad to be going home!!!!

MegRam · 29/06/2017 16:41

@EekThreek I'm in Nottingham!

Ruthcarr1990 · 29/06/2017 16:51

Just booked my sexing scan for 5th Aug!!! Xxx

Roseandbee · 29/06/2017 17:44

Flossy I got my results, all low risk. If you've not got yours today too hopefully they'll come tomorrow!

Gemaxo · 29/06/2017 18:21

Has anyone else been having really bad Lower back ache? Or had it around 10 weeks. Mine is really bad today, can't settle in any position 😢

Loulou1286 · 29/06/2017 19:04

Hi all, new to this. I had a dating scan today the lady wrote in my notes XXCOMPXY I haven't got a clue what this means,does anyone else? Then the lady that took my notes and blood said "oh so could be another girl for you"!!? I just smiled and felt confused.
Baby #4 due 4th Jan 2018

WLMcI · 29/06/2017 19:20

Loulou welcome! I guess you're new to MN, but not new to motherhood! I have not a clue what most of the notations are meant to be in my green folder notes lol. They're pretty illegible. But I don't see anything like that in mine.

I had a bit of a scare--last night the dog jumped up at me as I was sitting putting my shoes on (he was excited as I was just home from work and we were about to go for a walk) and he landed on my stomach. I happen to know (because I've given blood) that I'm rhesus negative, so I rang the EPU and they had me come in for blood test in case there was any internal bleed; very dangerous if baby's blood were to mix with mine. They gave me the anti-D injection to be on the safe side, but they had no sign anything was wrong. They didn't do a scan, but it really wasn't a major trauma so I'm trying to be positive about it (he's not a heavy dog and it didn't knock the breath out of me). Just everything throws me into a panic! I feel absolutely wiped out and like I could sleep from now to Monday...

Ruthcarr1990 · 29/06/2017 19:48

@Gemaxo I've been getting aching in my hips. It's killing me xx

Fattycowagain · 29/06/2017 19:52

I'm so in love... I got put on 12 January as my due date, so if it could be changed from the 10th on the next list update?

Also, if anyone would like to join the Facebook group, just send me your email by PM.

January babies #3
PurplePoppySeed · 29/06/2017 20:03

Had my 12 week scan last Friday, they put me forward to 2nd Jan which was a surprise, but I'm tall, as is my daughter so I suspect it's just another long baby and won't come much earlier than I expected! I have no idea how to post the pic from my phone, but it's not great as baby kept turning its back on us Hmm

EekThreek · 29/06/2017 20:09

My dates have been brought forward both times @PurplePoppySeed , but I've given birth on my original dates. I know they say that the first 12 weeks are pretty universal for growth/development but both my babies were 9lb so I think they were just big all along 😁

Waitingonasmile · 29/06/2017 20:22

Lovely news that scans have all gone well Smile

I had my second dating scan today (to do nuchal fold) and due date definitely changed to Jan 9th.

Loulou1286 · 29/06/2017 20:34

Thanks for looking!
Hope your feeling ok now x

PurplePoppySeed · 29/06/2017 21:38

Thanks eek I gave birth about a week after my original date but closer to their estimate, however she was big, had loads of hair and meconium which are all signs of a late baby so who knows!

ImBreakingBad · 29/06/2017 21:49

I've ignored the thread so long it removed itself from my active list! Here I am place marking again.

Quick update of things - 11+2. Had a private scan yesterday and all looks well - NHS scan is next Wednesday.

I'm feeling awful, sore, emotionally drained and my SPD is horrendous! Walking is a killer, as is stairs, sleeping and moving in general Grin.

I can't wait for January!!

WLMcI · 30/06/2017 07:28

Great news on all the good scans! Mine was the same PurplePoppy, which is why I never posted the pic (it's all just a disjointed blur).

I'm 14 weeks here. Just wondering if anyone else is on the combined antenatal/parentcraft route called the Solihull approach (on NHS)? It's being trialled here in NI and I'm in the first group of guinea pigs! It means we all have our antenatal appointments pre-scheduled, so that's handy for work, and don't have to make separate appointments for parentcraft.

Also I may have gone overboard with the maternity shoppingonly went in for a pair of jeans and yoga pantsbut the Belfast H&M were having a clearance (in store)! It was mostly cool weather stuff as I think it's the winter/spring range, cha-ching! No idea if this is universal or not, but it was certainly good timing. We're going on holiday in 10 days and I can only wear 1 pair of jeans, and most of my tops are not long enough to cover my rubber-band contraption at the waistband...
