Mine got moved back 6 days! I was gutted to start with but now just glad everything is ok..

Work trousers are super tight today - they're so uncomfortable :(

november90 · 10/10/2019 09:31

@Sunshine8888 good luck with your saying scan! With my first I had a few early scans and my ate got moved around quite a bit. I don't really think they can give you an accurate one until 12 weeks so don't be surprised if it gets moved again! Enjoy seeing your little one 💗

Wishful30 · 10/10/2019 09:42

Good luck ladies having scans in the next few days. Wish I could get one!
So glad the cramping and spotting stopped. But now every little twinge/stabbing pain is making me really anxious 😥
I did wonder if I was actually still pregnant... but I guess the pains are a good indication 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sunshine8888 · 10/10/2019 09:42

Thank you ladies, it’s going to be a long anxious days!! My stomach is doing somersaults 🤢

Doodlebug321 · 10/10/2019 10:01

@Wishful30 right there with you in the "am I?" thing.
There's no way to tell at this point and I'm still stressing over MMC/Blighted Ovum/Ectopic/Molar etc.

Doodlebug321 · 10/10/2019 10:06

Oops pressed post before I meant to.

I get the odd twinge here & there, but not the crampy feelings for about 2wks now.
Boobs are still sore, but they do fluctuate. Sickness is still there. But end of the day I know this means nothing.

Desperately wanting to know if there is a baby in there & if it's ok.

Helensss · 10/10/2019 10:48

@doodlebug321 I worry about
Missed mc too ☹️

Sunshine8888 · 10/10/2019 10:57

And me! That’s what I’m scared of tonight 😢

Shak19 · 10/10/2019 11:25

My morning is going awful so far. Staying in my mums as our boiler is broke. Had myself some cereal. 10 mins later it literally erupted out my mouth..couldn't make it to the toilet so it went all over the floor. Laminate floor so not too bad but then I slipped in it as going to get cleaning stuff and then choked as more decided to come up.
Feeling so sorry for myself now lol
Got about an hour chill time before I go to work. Eurgh.
I think I'm gonna have an only child 😂😂

Helensss · 10/10/2019 11:40

@Sunshine8888 What time is your scan? You’ve nearly got through the morning, just the afternoon!

I’ve taken today off, eagerly awaiting the post to see if my scan date is in it!

Sunshine8888 · 10/10/2019 11:42

@helensss it’s at 6pm! First client seen, a couple more this afternoon! I’m a bag of nerves. At my last scan I burst into tears when she found a heartbeat 💓 the hormones are making me so emotional

helpasisterout · 10/10/2019 11:48

@Helensss @Sunshine8888 @woollycat @november90

Thanks guys I think I will take another tonight before bed just to be sure.. I do have plain folic acid from before when ttc so may take that depending how yuck I feel!

I've actually only been sick 4 times so far but wrenching constantly.. doesn't help that we have a temporary outdoor toilet just now as house renovations are ongoing so it's a bit brutal first thing!!

Good luck for scans today/tonight for those getting them I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!! 💗

Helensss · 10/10/2019 11:49

Least it’ll make your day go quicker having meetings! Only 6 hours to go 😉 I wish I’d booked an early scan now 😢 x

helpasisterout · 10/10/2019 11:52

@Shak19 You poor soul 😱 you will look back in a few years and laugh at this disastrous morning but I have had a few of these moments recently and I just shake my ear and mutter f**k sake 😂

Shak19 · 10/10/2019 12:11

@helpasisterout I know itll all be worth it in the end but jeez women sacrifice so much to bring a baby in to the world. I really hope it settles down soon. If I didn't work I would literally go from bed to the sofa and back lol

Helensss · 10/10/2019 12:28

@shak19 yep! I haven’t gone to work today and I’ve only moved from sofa to heat up some soup 😂 I spent yesterday wanting to curl up in a ball on the office floor not being able to keep up with anything! Luckily I’m friendly with my boss so she knows and hopefully will be understanding today! X

Babymumma123 · 10/10/2019 13:22

@Doodlebug321 update - baby is perfect cervix is fine and womb! Crazy how I bled so my yestuday and even now and the baby was moving and fine! Thank god! They don’t no the reason for bleeding !

mrsf1204 · 10/10/2019 13:29

I am so exhausted! Work is becoming such a struggle as my mind seems to switch off come 1/2pm! And nausea is back with a vengeance. Walked round the whole of co op at lunch time and didn't really want anything, in the end I was drawn to carrot sticks and some sugary lace sweets!! Random combination. First time I have wanted actual fruit or veg though, I've been Carb and plain food mad for about 2 weeks so this is good. It's the tiredness that's a problem. I was debating asking work if I could have a couple of shorter days a week until this passes but I feel like it's a bit of a cop out? I don't want to be a pain. It's just my mind is fried. I actually fell asleep at my desk yesterday at 3pm! I've never done that in my life xx

facevalue · 10/10/2019 13:36

@babymumma123 great news x must be relieved.

i had no "hot boobs" this morning and not much nausea so had toast and tea then was lying on the sofa thinking bad things and fell asleep .. i'm up now and feel nauseous again - ordered KFC chicken pieces yummy and fatty waiting for me.

@Helensss haha that's me on sofa all day

@helpasisterout try taking the vitamins during a meal while eating that will cushion it so it shouldn't irritate your stomach x r u constantly nauseous or with certain foods?

@Sunshine8888 good luck - keep us posted

@CharlieB93 tell me about it! yesterday i digged our my old maternity trousers and jeans- i recommend the M&s ones you can order it online. it makes no sense because when i stand on the scales i'm still 74kg i'm 1.66 m tall. i'm not keen on becoming much bigger tbh ..

CharlieB93 · 10/10/2019 13:42

@facevalue thank you i'll have a look! I've got another 3.5 hours wearing them... is it acceptable to take them off (I have a modesty board infront of my desk) hahaha...
Same, I've had eating issues for as long as I can remember, i'm trying to keep calm about putting weight on

Doodlebug321 · 10/10/2019 14:16

@Babymumma123 ysy! So happy for you!

I have an awful wave-like sharp pain under my ribs on the right. Wondering if I need the prunes again 🤣

Bumpingalong84 · 10/10/2019 14:39

Hey ladies. I’m sitting here waiting to see midwife for booking appointment! So anxious for some reason even though I’ve done this Twice before and know what to expect.

@Sunshine8888 you’ll be fine I’m sure, the risk of MMC is so low, you’ve seen a heartbeat and that’s really good so try and feel positive going in. Best of luck.

mrsf1204 · 10/10/2019 14:44

Good luck @Bumpingalong84 ! I have mine on Saturday and have no idea what to expect! Let us know after the appointment how it goes and what sort of thing happens :) x

Doodlebug321 · 10/10/2019 16:04

I'm just over 9 weeks now.
Has anyone else noticed their underwear getting a little tight? I normally wear bikini brief style cotton underwear, so not much give in them. It seems they're suddenly a but tight & leaving an imprint across the top.

Time for some new underwear I think.

kstann · 10/10/2019 16:05

@helpasisterout hey, I was a taking a good quality multi vit but it was making me SO SICK! Within 20 mins or so of taking it. Even thought of taking it made me want to to Vom. I stopped taking it and got a folic acid only and a vitamin D spray separately now it's fine xx
