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

@snowboard14 that's amazing news. So happy for you!

BelieveItCanHappen · 15/04/2020 22:47

Ladies, I wanted to ask for your advice...

I'm 11 weeks tomorrow. And I still don't feel anything in my stomach. In my other pregnancies I'm sure I felt a little bump in my tummy in my tummy in the mornings. When I needed the toilet a lot or something. But I don't feel a thing. It's completely flat and squishy. Is anyone feeling any kind of bump yet? xx

Snowboard14 · 15/04/2020 22:56

@BelieveItCanHappen my belly only tends to go hard after I've eaten and I get all bloated... think that's why I was worrying so much, but today showed all is well. When is your scan?? X

BelieveItCanHappen · 15/04/2020 23:11

@Snowboard14 my scan isn't until the 29th. I will be 13+6. So they making me wait a while 😕

I have the bloating too. I've had it for weeks now but i know it's not the baby. It's the uterus that I'm talking about when it pops up and you can feel that hard lump just below your stomach. I remember I felt it early during second pregnancy. But can't remember exactly when. So I'm starting to get a bit worried. It's reassuring to hear you haven't felt anything like that yet. x

BelieveItCanHappen · 16/04/2020 00:27

I mean 12+6 😂

Bienentrinkwasser · 16/04/2020 08:11

Great news @Snowboard14!

@BelieveItCanHappen I have a slight feeling of fullness in my lower and omen but definitely not anything obvious. I had a tiny little bump at 13 weeks so assumed I’d get the same this time a bit earlier but still nothing at 11+.

Bienentrinkwasser · 16/04/2020 08:11

*abdomen not and omen!

BelieveItCanHappen · 16/04/2020 16:26

@Bienentrinkwasser thanks for the reply! I'm probably just overreacting. 11 weeks is still very early I guess. x

Hope everyone is okay today x

magvdamme · 17/04/2020 08:05

Hey ladies how you all doing. I've got my booking appointment today and feeling really nervous for some reason 🤔 never felt like this with my last 2 girlies. Maybe because I know this is going to be my last baby 😥 xxx

Rundle90 · 17/04/2020 08:26

@magvdamme ooh exciting! To be honest I'm nervous about my booking appointment, mostly because I feel she's going to ask a million and one questions!

Snowboard14 · 17/04/2020 08:28

Good luck!! @magvdamme I'm sure it will be fine, is it face to face as I know a few that have been change to phone calls. Let us know how you get on, I have mine monday 😁 feels so more real when/once you have your appointments doesnt it x

magvdamme · 17/04/2020 13:04

Hey do all done 😁 feel slightly relieved. It was face to face I was with the midwife over an hour with all the questions. Luckily it was the same midwife I've had for my last 2. Now just to wait for my scan. Hopefully that won't be long 🤞🤞

LayTheTableMabel · 17/04/2020 15:45

Hi, can I join in? Back from an early scan today. I am 9+6. Due 14th Nov. Seriously sick feeling but not actually being sick. Its my second pregnancy, we have a 19month boy, and 2 teenage step kids who i am home schooling week on week off so lock down feels pretty busy!

Snowboard14 · 18/04/2020 09:19

Welcome @LayTheTableMabel, congratulations!!

Think we have all been feeling that way, I'm 10+3 now and thought my symptoms should of eased up by now but had such a sicky bad headache day yesterday 🤯
I don't have any children yet so I've had a lazy 1st trimester so far, not sure I could of down it looking after a little one,and homeschooling. Well done you X

@LayTheTableMabel congratulations ❤️❤️ don't envy you with the 19month old and first trimester at all. That's the gap I have between my eldest 2. Virtually impossible to rest or have any down time !! Luckily they are now 4 and 7 so occupy each other really nicely.
I've managed to get myself really worked up over the last few days about something going wrong. Probably reading to many posts on here 🙈 when I got up this morning my husband has booked me an early private scan for 3.15 today to put my mind at ease ❤️❤️
Hope your all doing ok xxxx

Rundle90 · 18/04/2020 10:12

@LayTheTableMabel hi! Welcome! Oh bless you, that's lots to have on your plate whilst feeling sicky. Hopefully the nausea passes soon!

@Snowboard14 the headaches omg! I had to go to bed at 7pm as I couldn't cope any longer, my head felt like someone has taken drills to my eyes and temples. Felt rotten and sicky from the pain. Thankfully it has since gone and done a big fat one. But I have had more headaches in the past week than I think I've ever had Sad

Rundle90 · 18/04/2020 10:14

@magvdamme oooh congratulations on the early scan that's so kind! So excited for you!

LayTheTableMabel · 18/04/2020 10:20

@magvdamme how lovely. What a thoughtful partner. Hope you have a lovely afternoon. Can he go with you?

LayTheTableMabel · 18/04/2020 10:21

Thanks everyone. It's good hearing others who feel exactly the same (sorry you feel pants tho). Not long and the placenta will take over and we will be feeling much better

Snowboard14 · 18/04/2020 11:10

@magvdamme how exciting for your scan!!
@Rundle90 it's horrible isn't it,yesterday was the worse, every bit of noise and light hurt and the sicky feeling 😥😥😥 feeling better

Hope we all start feeling better soon.X

Sorry to jump on! I’ve had a phone call with my midwife (on Wednesday) and she has estimated I’m now 8+3. I’ve got an appointment on 29th for bloods and have been told to expect my scan date letter through the post shortly hopefully!

It’s my first pregnancy so naturally everything worries me, feeling very sick constantly and being sick and in the evening is when I usually am sick.
