Oh I get the worry! I think I have my blood test at the same appointment as the scan so will probably have to wait another week for the results.
I'm feeling OK. My belly seems big atm lol but I'm sure it can't be a proper bump at only 11 weeks?! Might well be all the extra food I'm eating 🤣 I still can't stomach much other than bland foods but the more often I eat the less I feel sick lol. I'm hoping it settles soon I'd love to be eating a bit healthier!

@SAbs86 @Magix86 I'm so bloated I've just decided to bite the bullet and wear maternity jeans they are soooo comfortable!!

My scan is a week today. I think they do bloods the same day, or are you talking about the bloods the midwife did at the booking appointment (I've no clue what they were actually for 😅)

Hello, ah that sounds like good news! @SAbs86 I’m sure if you had them all tested then it surely must be ok? I’ve heard that the early non invasive tests have a high false positive risk.

@Magix86 yes my scan isn’t for another 2 weeks too so feels like a v long wait!

I’m all good, had a horrible night a week ago where I started bleeding and the A+E told me I was miscarrying, it was awful, but the next day we paid for a private scan and everything was absolutely fine. I just had a low lying placenta which means it might cause some terrifying bleeding every now and then 😱 I’ve never been so relieved! So now just trying to remain calm and not constantly freak out.

Agree with @CakePigeon30 and @Magix86 I am so crazy bloated, nothing fits! Also gone up 2 bra sizes, it is a bit nuts. I was reading and found a lot of women saying they put on the majority of weight in the first trimester, which was reassuring. It is so hard when you need to eat to keep away the nausea xx

In a way I'm glad it's not just me @CakePigeon30 @Triselly 🤣 but I'm also sorry you're both feeling uncomfortable too!! I'm going to order some maternity leggings and jeans this weekend I think, just so I'm a bit more comfortable. I work from home most of the time so am in pyjama bottoms mostly! But not comfortable in normal jeans now.
I'm also still going to bed crazy early every night, sometimes even 7.30pm 🙈 I just can't bear doing anything atm lol.
Glad to hear you haven't had any more bleeding @Triselly that must have been a big shock x

@Magix86 that's what I thought about bump, I figured maybe it just bloat but I wake up with it too I think it is a little bump! It just seems super early like you say! My appetite has been increased but I've been able to stomach most food hopefully you start to feel better too.

@CakePigeon30 I think might have to do the same! Even my loose jeans are starting to feel tight 😅
At the booking appt it's different bloods, I had my screening bloods a week ago (you can only get it between 10 and 14 weeks) and then I got the results for my screening bloods today.

@triselly yes I'm sure all OK but I'm an over worrier by nature! That must have been so scary for you I'm glad all OK and hoping for a smooth pregnancy for you.
