May 2020

Hi everyone! I can't find a May 2020 group yet. Most of you don't even know you're expecting yet. I'm due May 1st and got my bfp on 9 dpo. So I'm only 3 weeks 3 days. I feel like I may be lonely in here for a little while.
Looking forward to being joined by other mummies to be :)
This is my 3rd pregnancy. 1st was 7 years ago and I have a 7 year old son. 2nd was 5 years ago which ended in a m/c feeling positive for my rainbow.

@november90 have u see the new Cadbury ginger biscuit edition. Could be answer to ur prayers haha.
Choc and ginger to help with any nausea lol

@november90 I just crave anything beige and carby! Midwife said totally normal and what our bodies need! Just go with it 😊 she said by second trimester we’ll probably feel more like a salad again 😂

@Sunshine8888 @TtcanotherG god I'm the opposite haven't touched bread in like 3 weeks by body is just craving healthy stuff 😅 anything green and leafy 😂😂😬 doesn't do good for the grumbly tummy though!

Guys! just discovered the most amazing app! you put your due date in and it shows you a 3d video of what your baby looks like!! you can personalise baby to match skin tone and everything!

its called pregnancy + and i'll be honest made me cry! (Happy Cry)

@KittenMittens1 yeah I've just downloaded that! A friend on Instagram has it the 12+ week babies are just so adorable

@flossy12 Yass! we're at the weird looking stage at the moment, lady on the desk next to me asked why i was crying, i showed her this and she said what on earth is that!

@TtcanotherG oh no I haven't but it sounds lovely!!! I've just had an emergency big bar of Cadbury caramel and it was unreal! I can't stop thinking about it 🙈

@KittenMittens1 yeah we are 5+6 so total tadpole at the moment but how amazing is it 😍

@BlueberryPoppy123 how are you doing? Just noticed you hadn't posted in a while

Oh my goodness the pregnancy brain has already struck, just realized you posted yesterday!

@Shelbustotherescue hey and welcome! Just working my way through the last few pages and saw no one responded to your post. No one's responded to any of mine either so may join the April thread!

If it wasn't for my last baby by the time this one is born there will be ten years between the youngest and my eldest. My body coped well last time but my brain had definitely forgotten absolutely everything as it had been 8 years, I couldn't remember even how to change the baby! How are you feeling? This first trimester is a strange one, often lots of symptoms but no bump & the anxiety pre scan ect.

Bring on twelve weeks 🙏

Looks like we are due a similar

*time

had my booking in appointment with the gp this morning (we do that and he refers me to the midwife) and i mentioned to him that i have had a stitch type pain in my side so he has referred me to the EPU

I am not overly worried as i have a disabled 4 year old who i've been lugging about and i've probably lifted her the wrong way.

only 5+5 so not sure they'll even see anything!

Anyone else experiencing back pain? With that and my af type cramps I took another test yesterday and still positive. Think I need to stop overthinking!

@Coastaldreamer yep I’ve suffered with back aches since I found out I was pregnant! It gets worse if walking up hill I find. Also get cramps on and off. All part of the fun! Ha

@Huffthepuff Hope you're doing ok today. Sending lots of love and hugs. Like @november90 said, not a downer at all and please feel free to talk if you want to xxx

@KittenMittens1 Wow that app is amazing!! So cute you can choose the baby's ethnicity too! Thanks for sharing! Xx

Hey guys. Hoping i can join in with the may club. Longtime lurker not really posted before but like a few of you feel its too early to tell others but nice to be able to have a chat to those experiencing the same. Congratulations to all of you.

thinking of everyone who’s early pregnancy journey hasn’t gone to plan.

Im 6wks and 6 days according to the early scan today which was arranged by gp after i had started spotting so far they have said that they found a heartbeat so have my fingers and toes crossed all will be ok but sometimes nerves get best of me.

@champoopapi yes just dying of nausea but otherwise I'm grand. Mainly active on the Facebook page now as I don't have a computer and is much easier when using my phone to write and reply xx

@huffthepuff

I am so sorry you're experiencing this. It's rubbish. Please don't think you are being downer on the page. We are here for you if you need us to be and when you don't need us anymore you can choose to stop replying. But until then you keep on if you need to. Sending you lots of love your way xxx

Girls this is a bit embarrassing ur I've bleached my top lip for the past few months as I've always been a bit self conscious of having darker hair there (I'm so fair so i just feel like it's so obvious)! I've read you shouldn't do this I'm pregnancy and I don't know what to do! Does anyone know any natural remedies or have any advise? I feel really self conscious!

@november90 perhaps not the nicest thought to do it yourself, but maybe wax strips?

Is anyone experiencing all day/ overnight nausea, rather than 'morning'? Im finding I feel rather sick all day, but it really ramps up when I am in bed trying to sleep. Meaning Im getting very little sleep ontop of feeling bleurgh.

In other news, a zoku instant ice lolly maker is my new best friend. Dh thinks I'm barmy making an orange juice ice lolly this morning for breakfast as it was all i could stomach.

@november90 eek I don’t know?! I bleach mine as well, please let me know if you find out!

Really random question but is anyone else experience bright yellow wee?!! And when I say bright it’s like neon yellow. 🙈
