Morning Ladies,

Morning everyone. I’ve had a few stab type pains lower down this morning and feeling crampy. I feel like I’m getting cold as well so feel rubbish. I honestly wish these 12 weeks would fly over, I hate the worry everyday. Are you all going by the date of your last period of date of conception? Hope you’re all ok x

heartbroken22 · 20/11/2022 09:42

@Dannic2018 aww I've been feeling the same stabs particularly on my left side and some cramps too. It's just our bodies making room for baby. I hope you get better. I'm using the date of my last period as this is what they ask at the hospital.

thelma57 · 20/11/2022 10:13

I’ve had this too @Dannic2018 This morning it feels like a stitch really!

I’m counting down the days until my scan, I wish we could all just go to sleep for weeks to avoid the stress 😭 at the same time trying to enjoy it.

My spotting seems to have totally cleared up now so 🤞 it was just a one off, can’t take the stress!

Abbi95 · 20/11/2022 10:22

Hi all,

so very very sick 😷 had a hospital admission for injection of anti sickness and IV fluids on Friday but back home and no further forward I’m only 8weeks so I know this is going to go on a lot longer which is really hard for me ! also can’t get my booking appointment till 12 weeks!

Scotti84 · 20/11/2022 10:47

@Abbi95 oh no, that sounds unpleasant. Did the anti sickness stuff help at all? These hormones bring so many awful side effects dont they. Hope you feel better soon x

Daniki · 20/11/2022 13:04

@Dannic2018 iv has the same pains aswell! Comes and goes. 8 days on and I’m still having small brown spotting cannot take the stress of it! Roll on 12 weeks!!

gg9320 · 20/11/2022 14:13

Hi @Abbi95 me too, was admitted on Thursday. I’m sorry you’re also having severe sickness, it’s horrible. I was sent home with cyclizine and metacloprimide and thankfully haven’t been sick since but very nauseous - there are other drugs though that can work if what they sent you home with wasn’t effective. I found the hyperemesis support thread on here really helpful www.mumsnet.com/talk/pregnancy/4658900-hyperemesis-support

heartbroken22 · 20/11/2022 18:13

@Abbi95 did the anti sickness injection help? I had it last time and it was good for a day. It made life seem normal. Did they tell you how often you can have it?

heartbroken22 · 20/11/2022 18:14

@Abbi95 @gg9320 hope you both feel better. This nausea and sickness has made me feel like no more babies after this and that I'm crazy for thinking one more won't harm me.

to an extent I didn’t thow up that night but was still nauseated back to square one the day after but they did say to go back in if I get bad again

thelma57 · 21/11/2022 11:14

My sickness has properly started today (which I’m trying to take as a good sign!) haven’t been sick but feel awful and like I could at any second. Also craving a bowl of mash potatoes 😂

RainbowSearching · 21/11/2022 14:21

So this morning I had a reassurance NHS scan. I think I’m 6+3 but measured just under 6 weeks. We got to see a heartbeat, so that was reassuring, however they won’t scan me again unless of bleeding etc despite my 3 miscarriages ending at this same stage. I just feel like I need some additional reassurance a week or 2 down the line that it’s still growing.

Ballygowenwater · 21/11/2022 14:26

I’ve gone from feeling very pregnant, have womb, sore boobs etc for the last week to nothing at all today. I really hate this stage.

Dannic2018 · 21/11/2022 15:44

I’ve made the leap and have rang the midwife to refer myself today. Was going to wait incase it jinxed anything but I was in the doctors with my toddler. Also up north it’s all paperless so this will be new to me. Have to get my bloods done at my local hospital in December which I never with my son 2 years ago. Full of cold today and feel sick and my poor little boy isn’t well so is wanting to be on my boobs and it kills when he feeds 😩🤣 x

rach971 · 21/11/2022 16:29

Did a Clearblue dating test today, it got me bang on 😁

Due July 2023
Dannic2018 · 21/11/2022 20:40

@rach971
ah I haven’t done a digital one because the prices in Tesco were shocking 🤣🤣. Feel like I should though and see what it comes back as

rach971 · 21/11/2022 23:46

@Dannic2018 I used good old Amazon 🤣 Just over a tenner for the two.

Daniki · 22/11/2022 10:54

Has another scan today as my spotting is still going on, it's faint and it's brown but still there, and everything ok im 8 weeks seen the heart beating on the scan ☺️

thelma57 · 22/11/2022 11:08

Glad to hear all okay @Daniki I’m still having very light brown discharge from time to time when I go to the loo. Got my scan on Friday! Hoping and praying for that feeling of knowing there’s a heartbeat 💕🤞

Daniki · 22/11/2022 12:25

@thelma57 hope all goes well! I'm sure be fine, the nurse was like don't worry about brown it's when it's red heavy and can fill a pad that you need to worry xx

bubble55 · 22/11/2022 12:44

I’m 8 weeks today and got the worst sickness. I feel light headed I feel so nauseous, yet I can’t seem to throw up 😩

rach971 · 22/11/2022 13:03

Daniki · 22/11/2022 12:25

I wish they wouldn't say that because it's completely untrue, in some circumstances anyway, not all. I'm so glad baby is fine though. The scans are so reassuring aren't they ☺️ can't wait for mine! Will be in 2-3 weeks time I think

Daniki · 22/11/2022 13:08

@rach971 hope the time flies for you it's such an anxious wait! Ah I know what you mean I think maybe she meant for me maybe to not panic about the ongoing brown spotting but if it changes then to go back, I worded it a bit differently! X

Butterfliesandroses · 22/11/2022 14:09

I'm pleased for you @Daniki !! Positive stories fill me with hope 😊

Butterfliesandroses · 22/11/2022 14:14

@rach971 I've read a few times that people have been told not to worry about brown, only red. However, both my miscarriages started brown and one started really light brown spotting 🤷‍♀️
