June 2019 - Thread 2

New thread for those of us due in June 2019 😊

@JBCG I'm so sorry to hear your news.

Evening all. Not been about due to a horrible cold, totally choked up and coughing away.

Weighed myself tonight and shocked to see I have put on 10lb already. I am always just under 9 stone, now I am not far off 10. I dread to think how much weight I will put on with these twins.

Been having wobbles on and off about carrying twins. I have had 4dc naturally and I really don't want to have a C-section. Money, time, space and so on are all getting to me. Ultimately I know we will manage, just it's a bit scary!

@JBCG I’m so sorry you’ve had some bad news. I hope you’re ok and get some answers on Tuesday x x

Sorry to hear you’re feeling unwell @CollyWombles. Sorry you’re feeling anxious about having twins too, I have no words of wisdom, but just want to send a hug! x x

Welcome @Cassia90 👋 and congratulations! x x

@Stormwhale I'm so sorry I didn't come back, I fell asleep ridiculously early last night!

You poor thing, it is a bit of a shock isn't it. It really is very normal though, my spotting led to me seeing baby's heartbeat on a scan, so it's not always bad news. And I've had 2 mc so you can imagine where I thought we were heading! One word of advice - stop googling it. I google everything and work myself up into such a state!

If it gets painful or heavy, go and seek help. Otherwise it could stop on it's own and everything continue as normal. Sending a great big hug and squeeze. Xx

@jbcg so sorry to hear your news and hope you get some answers on Tuesday.

Hugs and hand hold to those having some spotting as if the first trimester is not worrying enough. I am sure it is nature's way of saying well you want to have a child so best get used to worrying now there's lots of years of this to come...

Thank you for the support. It didn't get worse last night and seems to have stopped this morning. I had a normal night with sore boobs and waking all through the night so nothing different there. Not feeling sick yet today, but trying to think positively. I think I freaked so much because I didn't have any spotting at all with dd, so my mind went straight to the worst case scenario. Still worrying quite a bit but I'm calmer than I was.

@JBCG so sorry to hear that xxx

So sorry to hear your news JB. Fingers crossed everything sorts itself out and you have a sticky bean soon!

Even though I feel horrendous, this pregnancy is going so much better this time round I - the medication makes such a difference. Right now, I can't stop nibbling. Whenever I don't have something to eat I feel so sick, so nibbling at biscuits, chocolate, anything sweet I can lay my hands on. Tried chewing on some softmints, but that was vile so I don't think chewing gum will help!

The tiredness is overwhelming. I am shattered despite going to bed at 7pm last night, though DD waking in the night because she's not well isn't helping. Tiredness make everything worse, including the nausea.

I'm so sorry, @JCBG. Glad that you have your husband and kittens to keep you company. I hope that you're getting lots of snuggles from them.

Sorry, meant JBCG.

@JBCG 💕 thinking of you, take care of yourself.

I'm 8+4 today, still battling through the nausea. Weighed myself and I haven't gained anything yet, probably from feeling too sick to eat proper meals.

Hi @Skee thanks! You too I presume, I can't see your intro on here there is so many of us

Nausea has kicked in and I’m in the feeling sick unless I’m eating stage.. preferably salty things. Dread to think about how much weight I’m going to gain, avoiding the scales. 7 weeks today

@Napssavelives I'm the same. I'm dreading be weighed at my booking in appointment as all my clothes are snug already but eating crackers constantly to avoid nausea.

I'm feeling rotten now tbh, and not sure how to cope as with both girls I was pretty much symptom free. I had nausea a couple of times throughout the whole pregnancy and that was it.

So sorry @JBCG - did they tell you your HCG level? When I had bleeding early in a previous pregnancy mine was so low at the first test that I wasn't in limbo waiting for the follow up as I kind of knew it wasn't viable. I think (strange as that may seem) that helped me - but hope you are doing ok.

I'm still not really nauseous (6+6 today) but definitely feel "off". And I can't seem to stomach my beloved coffee at the moment!! I battled through 1 cup today but secretly tipped away the one my mum made me at the weekend and am down from 3+ a day. Couldn't even stomach tea this morning! I am finding the lack of "obvious" symptoms slightly worrying (especially compared to last pregnancy) as my boobs don't seem to have grown or be painful and am not feeling sick. But I am definitely off-the-scale exhausted, a bit grumpy, wanting to eat really specific stuff and gaining weight, so I can only assume I am actually pregnant and everything's going as it should!! Or maybe the nausea is going to hit tomorrow 🤪

I’m still like that, @toomanyflatwhites. I’ve started skipping (decaf) coffee a few mornings now and every now and then I feel a little sick, but I haven’t had much nausea. I just feel a bit off sometimes. I’m 9+3 and I was worried about what it meant for the pregnancy but we saw our little one on a scan last week and every thing seemed to be okay. I do have sore breasts though, still trying to find new bras to fit!

I have my booking appointment tomorrow and I’m nervous about being weighed as I know I’m overweight. I haven’t actually gained any weight, but I’m still anxious about how I’ll be treated.

@napssaveslives me too 6+5 today and even with sickness bands on today I feel really nauseous unless I am eating. Was also looking forward to my lunch today then started eating and had to pick out bits of it as made me feel more sick. Also exhausted but laying down does help the sickness.

This is going to sound like a ridiculous whinge, I'm sorry!

I've had a really tough day. Actually a really tough couple of months. Had an issue at work that I had a disciplinary hearing about this morning. I've been terrified about it for about 8 weeks now, so constantly anxious. I love my job and was so sure I was going to lose it. Anyway it was vile, but I've kept my job. I want a glass of wine so badly now though! Shocking I know. I used to always have a few glasses on Monday nights as my little boy is with his dad, so it's hard to break the habit.

Anyway other than that, I'm shattered and my boobs are killing me!

@coastergirl that's a totally legitimate winge!! Just focus on the fact that it's over now and you can move on with your life - and I'm really glad you got to keep the job ☺️

Thanks @Torsz That's what I'm trying to do. Having tea at the pub (no wine) then an early night. Excited to wake up tomorrow hopefully not feeling anxious.

That’s not ridiculous at all @coastergirl! I rarely drink and even I’d feel like a glass of wine in those circumstances!

Question for those of you having private scans or tests (like Harmony) done. Are you sharing this information with the midwife? Is it something they are interested in?

Good evening all, unfortunately I'll be saying goodbye to the June 2019 gang. You may remember I posted about spotting, lack of heartbeat, and not being sure whether it was mc or wrong dates. More spotting on Sat developed into a full-blown miscarriage yesterday and all was confirmed at hospital today. I'm doing ok, fucking sad but ok.
I wish you all beautiful healthy pregnancies and a lovely summer with your squishy newborns. Xxx

So sorry @Azure83 x

Azure I’m so sorry, please be gentle on yourself and take it easy. Wishing you every luck in the future x
