unfortunately so, but it is the biggest fight of the year! how you feeling tonight?

paulaplumpbottom · 08/12/2007 20:32

I think I'm starting to feel better. I've been able to eat today with has been wonderful. Still don't feel 100% but definatly better.

What about you?

bealcain · 08/12/2007 20:36

had quite abit of sickness today, eating my first food of the day which is a frozen pizza! Still getting anxious about finding out how far along i am, and not seeing MW till wednesday, i just want to know. Can definately feel something already when i lay down so got to be at least 12weeks, but still it might be twins!

paulaplumpbottom · 08/12/2007 21:28

what do you feel? a bump you mean?

sweetkitty · 08/12/2007 21:51

DP is staying up to watch the fight as well asked me if I was I said no way leave a warm bed to watch two guys knock 7 bells out each other I don't think so.

bealcain - when was your last AF do you know? With DD2 my boobs didn't get big at first as I was still BFing DD1 this time they are more tingly but not got that big, it's been about 6 months since I last BF though.

I'm just so fed up of feeling knackered all the time

PaulaYatesbiggestfan · 08/12/2007 22:05

gosh bealcain! I can no way feel a bump although i can barely do my jeans up despite losing weight over lat few weeks

have you got scan date?

pigleychez · 08/12/2007 22:20

I cant feel anything inside when laying down but my tummy is pretty hard and solid. I do have a bump which is definately rounded like a baby bump so not confused for eating too many mince pies!

Lots of people have commented that I look big for my gestation (10 weeks ) which is quite worrying!

PaulaYatesbiggestfan · 08/12/2007 22:30

usually at booking the mw is still unable to palpate uterus

bealcain · 09/12/2007 07:41

SK - sorry AF?

my LMP was 9 Sept, i was putting off doing tests! naively thought it wasn't happening! lol. Think i'm gona have a June baby this time, but i always go over by about 2i/2 weeks so reckon it'll be july! Not got scan date yet as still not booked in. A friend of mine is a mw and going to do my AN care and deliver and stuff but i haven't got round to booking in yet! got appt. on weds and then hopefully a scan before christmas as am about 14weeks!

bealcain · 09/12/2007 07:43

at 12weeks the unterus begins to come out and over the pelvic bone.

PutThatInYourPipeandSmokeIt · 09/12/2007 08:18

Morning everyone - I think I'm a bit behind on posting.

My exhaustion has lifted quite a lot since friday and now I'm worried that's bad news - I'm 8+4. I'm still tired but not nearly as much as I was. Has anyone else had this? I'm also looking a bit chunky for my dates!!

paulaplumpbottom · 09/12/2007 09:24

There is no rule that says you have to be tired all the time. I'm sure your fine

pigleychez · 09/12/2007 09:37

My tiredness comes and goes too.

One night im asleep by 7pm but others as last night i was still wide awake and very cherpy at 11pm.

Suppose it depend how much growing/developing baby has been doing that day.

Mummywannabe · 09/12/2007 09:44

Morning all.

Felt a little better last few days, less heaving - only about 5 times a day now. Had work Xmas do last night and managed tll 11pm! Several people commented on size of my bump (told work this week as was so obvious!).

Hope your all ok, have my scan booked in for 3rd jan, had booking appointment with G.P and haven't heard from a midwife so assume my anti-natal will be mainly G.P led??

sweetkitty · 09/12/2007 10:36

bealcain - wow you will be a lot further on then, my LMP was 31st October so I have a 8th July due date, looks like you will be more beginning/middle of June then. I agree it's usually about 14 weeks before you can feel anything I think before that the uterus just pushes the fat up and out so you just look like you have a bit if a tummy.

Does anyone elses stomach swell during the day so by dinner time you have a bump but next morning it's gone?

pigleychez · 09/12/2007 10:43

I wake up with a bump and it grows though out the day. In the evening it looks HUGE!

baby3 · 09/12/2007 11:05

hi everyone.... i haven't been on for about a week as I have been feeling so awful. Feel sick 24 hours a day to the point that all I can stomach most of the day is sips of water. Have lost a stone though which is ok as i am not slim. will go back to the doctors this week as i don't think i can go back to work yet. throw up about 2/3 times a day although i hardly eat so generlly there is not much to come up. feel really really miserable. will be 11 weeks on Wednesday so I am really hoping this has to get better soon.

I haven't read all the thread but thoughts and hugs to those who have had bad news.

paulaplumpbottom · 09/12/2007 13:03

I have more pink discharge, except its a bit redder. I know I have had this on and off from the beginning but it makes me feel so nervous. DH says its just pink mucus and I shouldn't be worried. I can't help it though, it drives me crazy

hugs to PPP - it must be a constant source of worry - but you need to have faith! I'm thinking of you!

I've got some good news at last - a scan date!!!!!

Friday 21st Dec - which is a pita because DS1 finishes school on 20th Dec, so I have childcare issues - chn aren't supposed to come to scans. Will have to try to change it, but no way am I waiting til after Xmas! I will be 12 + 4 according to my dates on the 21st.

I also have my first midwife visit on Thurs, so stuff is finally beginning to happen. I have met her before (briefly) in my last pg and she seemed nice!

Hope all you ladies are feeling ok

Evening All,

PAULA - fingers crossed for you and hope you are feeling a little less scared/anxious soon. When was your last smear? Do you think it is possible that you have cervical erosion?

BABY3 - my sympathies. My first 2 pg I was feeling sick 24/7 but this time is a little better.

MCCHEESERS - where abouts in Glasgow are you? Know what you mean about living in cities - good when you are a student, not so great when you are older I think. I lived in Knightwsood, Drumchapel (long story) and West End when I was a student. I used to frequent Glasgow Tech Union and the old Cathouse them were the days [nostalgic emoticon].

Especially if you are an OAP in the city - you just get shoved along in the midst of everyone.

I had a good day Friday - felt 'normal' and LO and I did some Christmas shopping. Yesterday I felt dreadful all day and I awoke about 1am this morning feeling really sick and couldn't get back to sleep as I felt so sick and hot. Then LO woke at 3.45am and needed a drink. Bleurgh - stayed in bed until 10.45 thios morning - forced myself out od bed to eat to try to drive away the ms. Does anyone else get really really HOT when pg? I am usually in bed for 9-9.30pm start feeling sick angain at night so just go off to bed.

My bump has gone down a bit the last few days - I'm not as swollen as I was. I'm not really eating dinners though - just small things throughout the day. Am mad on carbs just now, although last night I forced myself to eat a tuna,rocket and tomato sandwich then spent the early hours trying not to heave it back up again - fishy sick bleurgh!!!!

Anyway hope you are all not too bad - I think most of us have scans before and by 2nd week in January now so we will be able to chat singles/multiples, wrigglers etc.

Take care allxxx

EEC · 09/12/2007 18:45

Hello all. Sick sick sick today. Does anyone else feel worse after excercise? All the books tell you excersise is good for you, but I only need to walk to the post box, or even walk up and down stairs a couple of times with the washing and I not only feel absolutely exhausted, but horribly sick too.

Bump definitely gets bigger as the day goes on, but am finding most of my clothes tight all the time now. I don't want to buy any new clothes until after scan (tempting fate and all that), but don't know if I can wait 3 1/2 weeks.

paulaplumpbottom · 09/12/2007 19:46

About a year ago Santa. Whats cervical erosion?

EEC go ahead I buy a few things from new look in a larger size. That way you won't feel your tempting fate

PaulaYatesbiggestfan · 09/12/2007 21:19

i dont get this bump business i have none
in my first pg i dont think i showed at all until20 weeks - much earlier in subsequent but was looking at phootos of last pg and you could not tell in bikini at 15 weeks - just think i end up looking bulked up

no symptoms here apart from pms type mood and a hurting tim afer toddler literally dropped from a height - bum first onto it - i wonder whether i should be worried - dh says not!

i have lost appetite but not really feeling sick - retch in morning and at a bad smell etc but that is it!

any one had experience in other pg's of a 'thump' to the belly??

PaulaYatesbiggestfan · 09/12/2007 21:20

hurting tum not tim lol
