Hi, I'm due 12th Nov 2020.

how is everyone coping in this isolation. Have you told friends and family yet??
We havent as I have had 2 previous losses so we are waiting but being in isolation is making it feel so lonely and nervous about appointments. I still haven't had my letters from the hospital about my scan/booking app. Has anyone else yet??

Thanks
Jen

@rundle90 @snowboard14 thanks ladies still feeling very tender. Just spoken to epu have said to rest up at home with paracetamol unless it becomes unbearable or heavy bleeding. So a day on the sofa with Disney + I think for me 😊 hope your all ok xx

@magvdamme enjoy your Disney+ day! If you haven't yet watch Christopher Robin I have just watched it DH (dear husband) who was partly against it but he loved it as much as me! I'm okay thank you, feel all bloated but other than that I'm okay today thanks!

Let me know what you two thought of it! I was honestly surprised at how good it was. I have some light cramping pains in my tummy this afternoon, nothing dreadful but a bit twingy, been a bit dizzy too, especially if I stand up or turn too fast so that's new too.

Hello! Can I join you?
I had a dating scan last week as I had a weird long cycle, so I’m now provisionally due on the 3rd of November (might change by a few days at the 12 week scan in a couple of weeks). This is my second, and I have a 19 month old son. I’m really struggling with nausea and vomiting (again!).

@magvdamme oh I'm so glad you liked it! I almost did but I reined it in 😂 though I did blub to sleeping beauty, which I've seen a million times.

@Bienentrinkwasser welcome! Hopefully your sickness/nausea passes soon!
@snowboard14 ah that's absolutely fine you are fully allowed to sleep whenever you want too haha. Yes they've stopped now, it was intermittent cramps but light and like gentle period cramps, difficult to describe haha

@Snowboard14 the dizzyness has gone yes 😂 apparently my brain wasn't switched on as I completely misread your message.

@magvdamme oh me too! I LOVE Disney films the classic ones especially. Beauty and the beast is in my tops too. Absolutely love Disney+ other half was a bit sceptical of I'm honest 😂 apparently he wouldn't find anything to watch but he's watched a few now of his choosing.

@BelieveItCanHappen have you seen or spoken to a midwife yet? Best thing to do is phone the scan department directly and check with them. (Phone the hospital you’re booking with and ask for obstetric ultrasound).

BelieveItCanHappen · 14/04/2020 15:27

Thanks for the replies.. I phoned the department. The letters got sent out late. My scan is in another 2 weeks 😕 I'll be 13 weeks then. Hopefully it comes quickly. x

Hi @Mn345678 congratulations, I'm at UCLH too, I have both my appointments on the 20th I'll be just over 10 weeks.

Feels like it's getting more real now doesnt it??
Roll on these appointments. I have a private scan this eve to check on things, so I've had limited sleep and feel like I'm on a emotional rollercoaster today... I cried over my egg yolk breaking 🙈

@magvdamme @Rundle90 are you both feeling better now??

Hopefully as we are heading in the the next tri our sickness will start to fade... 🤞🤞🤞 the last few days its only hit in the evening.

@magvdamme I bet! So exciting! Is this for your scan or your booking? I'm going to be 13 weeks pregnant at my scan, which seems to be about average for people judging from our chats tbh! Feeling good today actually, no other symptoms yet today. How are you?

Rundle90 · 15/04/2020 13:18

@Mn345678 congratulations! I will be around 13 weeks when I go for mine.

@Snowboard14 I am feeling okay thank you, felt a bit headachey lastnight but fine this morning. It does feel so much more real now I have some appointments. My booking one is over the phone but they've given a form for me to fill in and take to an appointment (which I'm guessing is the normal route) so I'm not 100% sure what I'm supposed to do with that form 😂
