June 2019 - thread 3

[pollykins151]

Just starting a new one folks. Thread 2 was nearing its max 😊😊

Oh so sorry @Peanut1980, sending love and hope you and your DP have some support.

So sorry peanut :(

I just tried to find this thread on my computer rather than phone and I couldn’t for the life of me find it. It looks like it’s in pregnancy and not antenatal clubs where the last threads have been. Do you think some people might have got lost? Might be good if we can get it moved just incase!

@peanut1980 so sorry. Hugs to you and your oh.

I just bought some fybrogel to help. I’m not eating anything healthy at all so I’m not surprised.

Sorry to hear your news @peanut1980 why did you have such an early scan?

Thank you. I had an early scan as I’m pregnant through IVF and the clinic scheduled the scan. It’s a dating/viability scan. As soon as there’s a heartbeat they discharge you from the clinic and pass you back to your Drs surgery to manage moving forward x

@Peanut1980 I'm really sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself.

I have awful IBS and spend most of my life with diarrhoea. It drives me crazy. It was awful on Sunday and Monday. With my little boy, from about 12 weeks the IBS was so much better until after he was born. Hoping for the same.

I've got my scan in the morning. Fingers crossed. Also got a letter through yesterday giving me a booking in appointment for tomorrow but I've rearranged it for next week.

I'm so, so tired. Also a bit nauseous and have some major food aversions. Bit of a shock as I never felt sick with my little boy and hadn't done so far this time. I don't know what to do with myself! Living on ham and beetroot sandwiches and chicken nuggets. So nutritious.

@PaulHollywoodsSexGut don't worry I ate 5 chocolate digestive biscuits on Sunday and yesterday 🤭 I don't care! Once the nausea and sickness stops I will focus on balanced meals. Right now if I can keep down biscuits then so be it.

Very sorry Peanut please be gentle with yourself and I hope you have good support.

Oh @Peanut1980 how awful. I'm so sorry ❤️

Hey. Poking my head into the new thread but no pro.ises on being active. 11 weeks today and while I thought the HG was behaving this morning it is totally not this evening. :( Very sick and trying to drink and eat now to keep myself away from drs/hospital

Thank you for you kind words and wishes. Good luck and good health to you all x

Shall we do a 12 week scans list so we know when people are due theirs? Maybe added to the due date list. Mine's not until end of Nov anyway when I'll be nearly 14 weeks ffs!

Please please help calm me down. Boobs not so sore at the moment. Also was pretty sick last night around 8.00 and tonight I managed tea perfectly happily. Was not feeling wonderful this morning though. All I had in the house is cb digital which still says 3+ but I just cannot shake the panic and fear.

Shake me, please!

@socktastic

Don't worry my love, my symptoms have been up and down too this week. How far are you now? X

@socktastic I do the same. Constantly grabbing boobs, assessing how sick/nauseous I feel. I keep trying to tell myself what will be will be. I was diagnosed with HG last pregnancy and it was a mmc. My friend is due next month and had a symptom-free first trimester. So symptoms don't even necessarily mean anything.

Doesn't stop me worrying either though. Handhold. The first trimester is shit.

7 weeks-ish (depends which app I go by) had miscarriages in the past so absolutely terrified it's going to happen again although this one seems stickier than the others.

Hate, hate, hate the first trimester. I remember I was nauseous with my wee boy but not actually sick. Maybe I'm expecting the pregnancies to be the same.

@toasterstrudel laughing at the boob grabbing. I must look an utter fanny if anyone sees me. Think I do it at work now without even realising!

@socktastic I do it ALL the time! 😆 Someone is going to catch me at some point in Tesco or similar and think I'm a right pervert.

peanut1980 I'm so so sorry, that's the worst news after all you've been through. The loss of hope is devastating. Sending love. Be kind to yourself. X

The symptoms coming and going/not being same as previous pregnancy is enough to make anyone loopy...
I have had a few days where I was actually (shock,horror) productive at work and I kid you not, started to think "shit that must mean I'm not pregnant anymore...!!"
Loopy, I tell you.

@Peanut1980 oh love I am so, so sorry. 

@socktastic I cried yesterday because my boobs didn't hurt as much. I cried just now because the dog brushed lightly against my nipple as she got onto the sofa with me. Have hope for tomorrow's symptoms xx

Got a scan tomorrow morning at 9:40, I will be 9+0. I'm so nervous, I had a mmc last year. But with that one I knew all along something wasn't right. I had no symptoms at all. With this one I am feeling a lot more positive, got sore boobs, nausea, food aversions, fatigue, but at the same time I will feel stupid for feeling pregnant if I'm not actually pregnant.

@socktastic I've been the exact same today!! Was able to get up and showered today within 20 minutes of waking up for the first time in 2 weeks, slight amount of dry heaving, minimal nausea and boobs have been ok, I've been anxious about how good I've felt ALL day!!

It's the last day of our honeymoon (and possibly the first day of it my husband doesn't regret marrying me...) so I'm grateful for feeling good but it's so unnerving too!

So awake at half 2 feeling rough and having horrendous trapped wind. (A new one on me!) Honestly in so much pain. Of course when I woke up and felt the cramps I though oh right here we go. It's moving but it's so sore! Feeling a bit rough too so hoping this is a positive thing.

I’m a bit worried. Having pain in my shoulder, I know this can be w sign of an ectopic pregnancy. I’m meant to be working today. If I see the GP will I even get a scan today , I have one booked tomorrow afternoon but worried about this pain and hoping it’s safe to wait.

Also my shoulder feels tender to touch which makes me think maybe I just slept funny? Surely if it was from an ectopic it wouldn’t hurt to touch?

Peanut I’m so sorry, I hope you can take some time out for yourself xx

Socktastic trapped wind can be agony, I remember having it badly after my csection and it got so bad I couldn’t move in bed to pick up dd and had to ring my mum down the road to come and sort out dd!

Naps I’m sorry I don’t really know enough to advise you. Maybe ring epu for advice and see if they suggest having a scan or if it’s normal?

Symptoms definitely go up as down as I remember booking a panic private scan as I felt normal for 2 days and was convinced I wasn’t pg anymore. Symptoms came back soon enough and I wish I’d enjoyed the symptoms free time more.
