@RainbowsAndUnicorns23 I’ve had crampy lower abdominal pain. Had it a few times. First time maybe around about 7 weeks but it didn’t last more than a few minutes at a time. Then at about 9-10 weeks one day pretty much all day long at work. Mainly on the right side but a bit on the left. Anyway it eased off the next day but I was worried I’d ignored something I shouldn’t have so I called the midwife and she said see a doc and the doc said I was fine.

If you’re worried it’s best to get checked out though.

Hana327 · 27/01/2018 22:23

IM finding it hard to get excited as well @E2017. My mum is so excited but I'm worried something will be wrong due to my sickness and I'm also struggling to be excited when I feel so poorly. Your not alone!

E2017 · 27/01/2018 22:30

Hope everyone's weekend is going ok.

Thank you all for your feedback about stressing before 12w scan. Can't sleep I'm that worried about it. Even though I have n

E2017 · 27/01/2018 22:34

Sorry didn't finish typing before I hit send.

Can't stop worrying even though I have no obvious reason to. I'm still being sick a lot, nauseous the rest of the time too pretty much. Only weird thing is the pains I'm getting in my lower abdomen mainly on the left hand side. Not constant but quite sharp when I get them (mainly if I sneeze, wretch or roll over too quick when in bed). Google tells me this is prob just round ligament pain but will check on Monday at Scan.

Hope you are all able to relax and enjoy your weekend. X

peterpanwendy · 27/01/2018 22:37

@E2017 I'm exactly the same as you! Including the pains on the left hand side. When's your scan?

I'm currently lying on my sofa with my best friends 9 week old fast asleep on me, he is so gorgeous and I am so broody! Hope my little bean is ok in there!

milney25 · 27/01/2018 22:42

@E2017 I've had so many pins like this, they told me at the 12 week it was normal. I'm 13+3 and am still having them. Especially if I get up too quickly or move positions in bed!

milney25 · 27/01/2018 22:42

Pains not pins!

SpriteGirl · 27/01/2018 22:47

@E2017 I’ve also had a lot of pains like this when I move/stretch etc. Think it’s normal.

amzq87 · 27/01/2018 23:45

Awww @peterpanwendy that sounds lovely! Got snuggles with my friends 11 week old on Thursday at fat club and I just melted and then had a "OMG - I'm going to have one of these!" moments as it's my first. It was the night before the scan so really helped me relax a bit :-)

@E2017 so many pains like this - I've had a slight cough after having a cold and every time I cough in bed I get one. Easing a bit now though :-)

babyH3O · 28/01/2018 00:05

@E2017 This is a pregnancy symptom for me - when you sneeze and feel like you've pulled a muscle! Totally normal.

My husband bought me a maternity pillow yesterday. I think it's the best thing he has ever bought me! Still have sore hips when lying on my side so I think we need a mattress topper. In previous pregnancies I put a spare duvet folded in half on my side of the bed and that helped. Hope everyone else is comfortable and sleeping well. I keep waking at 2am for an hour or two but other than that can't complain.

@Subo2018 Thinking of you, what an anxious time. I hope you have more clarity v soon. Thanks

Babydreaming · 28/01/2018 06:35

Feeling a bit sorry for myself today! My 13 month old is a terrible sleeper. Today he woke me at 5.15am still tired but wouldn’t go back to sleep! We had an hour of screaming from 5.15-6.15. I haven’t had an 8 hours stretch of sleep this whole pregnancy/last 13 months and am always tired! I just don’t know how I’m going to cope with a newborn in the picture too!!

Thank you for responses. Yet again they have reassured me. Thank you. Snuggles with little ones sound so nice. X

Tinks15 · 28/01/2018 08:20

Hi everyone,

I've been quiet again. Sorry! Had my scan on Wednesday...everything went great thank goodness I was very nervous. Department was running late as per usual so was up there a good couple of hours.
Anyway they've given me a due date of 31st July now so a little ahead than I thought.
I've joined the July thread, but would like to stick around here too incase he/she is late one.
Hope your all doing ok.

milney25 · 28/01/2018 08:22

@babyH3O which one did he buy you? I really want something to help me sleep better, but there are so many in the market. DH is getting sick of my pillow fortress!

Emmasmum2013 · 28/01/2018 08:23

@babydreaming
Is there no one who could have your little one for a sleepover or some time today so you can have a break for a bit?
Does the baby still have a nap in the daytime? Maybe try and knock that on the head or reduce it so he sleeps better in the night?

@Subo2018
Thinking of you, really hope everything turns out for the best x

babyH3O · 28/01/2018 08:39

@milney25 This one: (but we live overseas so I'm not sure if it's readily available!) Added benefit is it stops me rolling onto my back and should keep me on my left hand side.

Stephiewoo · 28/01/2018 08:58

Urghhhhhh!!!!

In pain this morning, glad to know I'm not alone. Back hurts, arse hurts, hips need replacing by the feels of it, cough or sneeze feels like I've ruptured a muscle. There's still 28 weeks to go!😂😂😂

milney25 · 28/01/2018 09:42

Thanks @babyH3O they sell them on amazon and so I think I'll invest 😊

BlueberrySquash · 28/01/2018 11:03

I'm googling 12 week bumps because... why not? Some women have really impressive bumps!

Who is showing? Any bump pics?

Stephiewoo · 28/01/2018 11:31

@BlueberrySquash
I don't have a bump, I have a flaming mountain, no joke! 4th baby and I'm
Huge already.😂

BlueberrySquash · 28/01/2018 12:06

@stephiewoo that's so exciting!!

I've got my 'bump' on my hips and arse from eating too much toast! Oops!

Babydreaming · 28/01/2018 12:32

Thanks @Emmasmum2013. My mum came over this morning and took him for a while so that was nice! He still has 1 nap a day (we cut down from 2 recently). He’s only 13 months though so I think he will still need it for a while!

I have no bump yet...I just look super bloated!

Emmasmum2013 · 28/01/2018 13:40

Aww that’s been good that you’ve had a bit of a rest. I’ve had to ask my MiL to have my DD for a bit today. I’m so wiped out with this cold and being pregnant. All I want to do is lie down and close my eyes.
I’m sick and tired of feeling sick and tired :(

misshannah · 28/01/2018 14:01

I'm also curious about 12 week bumps, fast approaching and I'm feeling like a sausage already!

Is anybody thinking of subscribing to project b? Anybody used them before? Keep thinking it would be a nice monthly treat but my DP thinks it's a waste of money... www.project-b.com/

Gem173 · 28/01/2018 15:06

I haven’t got a bump just look slightly overweight now for my height and size. I also still don’t get many symptoms other than getting up for a wee every 30 mins oh and never hungry around tea time (6pm). Booking in appointment tomorrow! Can’t wait to get my scan date! Been naughty and have had McDonald’s twice this week 😩 never stepping foot in a takeaway this coming week (hopefully)
