@lemons44thats great news ☺️ @PlanBFertilitysending positive thoughts. Hope your scan is early tomorrow so you don’t have to wait around x

I’ve lost my nausea and sore nipples so now convinced I’m no longer pregnant 😭

confused2025 · 06/08/2025 07:46

@PlanBFertility symptoms fluctuate and just look at @lemons44thinking the exact same yesterday and had a successful scan. Try not to overthink it (easier said than done)

This happened to me on Monday (the day of my scan) and I was so panicked but baby was growing as expected with a strong heartbeat. I think we look for problems because we are so nervous. My sore boobs returned before I was even back in the car 🙈 good luck 🤞🏻

I'm 11w1d, my symptoms have fluctuated so much since the start! I had about 2 weeks of solid nausea and exhaustion from mid week 8 to now, it's easing off again. Up until week 8 it was up and down so much and all my scans were ok. It's hard not to obsess over symptoms and analyze everything but try to stay positive. The past week I've focused on things I want to do with baby when he/she's here and it's really helped changed my mindset, easier said than done I know. It does get easier to be more positive the further along you get and just try to take each day as it comes.

I keep waking up in the middle of the night with a strong urge for McDonalds or Domino’s. I’m trying so hard to be good but it’s killing me 😂

@PlanBFertility how did your scan go?

confused2025 · 08/08/2025 09:03

@Timetotryagain I’m trying to be healthy but it’s so hard. I feel one day I’ll lose all self control and probably order it all. Waking up in the middle of the night has been pretty regular occurrence for me and have anxiety about my 12 scan later today. How are you doing?

PlanBFertility · 08/08/2025 14:38

@Timetotryagain all good thanks

I have cravings for salt. Could lick a plate of the stuff 😂😂

confused2025 · 08/08/2025 15:08

@PlanBFertility maybe you’re having a boy (I know it’s an old wives tale ☺️)

CandidSnail · 08/08/2025 15:47

@PlanBFertility How did your scan go yesterday 🙏

Timetotryagain · 08/08/2025 18:27

@PlanBFertility glad it went well 💕

@confused2025 good luck!! Let us know how it goes!

I threw up for first time today (7+6) i was brushing my teeth and the gag reflux was too strong haha

confused2025 · 08/08/2025 19:20

@Timetotryagainthanks for checking in. The scan was great and it was like the baby was looking at us and everything measuring as it should. Also spoke with consultant but didn’t really take anything from this. Although was a little taken aback when asked if I planned a natural or C Section - I haven’t really thought that far ahead. How are you doing?

worldwidetravel2017 · 08/08/2025 19:45

Hey all

But very likely to be prem
& be born in Jan or feb

worldwidetravel2017 · 08/08/2025 19:46

We turn 9 wks this wkend

Timetotryagain · 08/08/2025 19:57

@confused2025 glad it went well 💙 oh thats strange to ask so early about delivery. Do you have any medical indications that a csection may ne recomended?

@worldwidetravel2017 welcome :D we were on the march/ april thread together for egg collections! How come its likely to be a prem birth?

Thank you

Unfortunately i have many high risk things including anti philosphid syndrome - aps

CandidSnail · 08/08/2025 21:36

@worldwidetravel2017 are you on medication for APS? I'll be 12 weeks on Tuesday, been on Inohep and aspirin since positive pregnancy and due to stop the Inohep Tuesday. There was a query if I had APS, not diagnosed so they gave Inohep for first trimester. I'm extremely stressed about stopping it now. Had a small bleed yesterday also which didn't help, all was ok on scan after it but it's sent my nerves into overdrive now. I had a large bowel movement after days constipated and bled immediately at same time, stopped quickly so probably irritated something from it I'm hoping.

No constipation here

Really hope all goes ok for u

confused2025 · 08/08/2025 22:43

Thanks @Timetotryagain. My main risk factors are being 40, first pregnancy and being IVF. She did ask me about other embryos - we have one left and she explained that I would have a 2 year wait if I went c-section route so I might try and avoid this as ideally would love to try again relatively soon after (although realise I’m very lucky and chances would be small but I would want to give it a shot) x

Timetotryagain · 10/08/2025 07:17

When did you all get your dating scan appointment through? I wonder if they will book it in after my booking appointment which is when i am 10 weeks. I am 8+1 atm

PlanBFertility · 10/08/2025 07:40

I’m still waiting for my booking appointment - no one has got back to me yet. Welcome back to the NHS 😂

Hows everyone doing? 7+4 and nausea has ramped up massively. Feel travel sick 24/7

Hopeloveandkindness · 10/08/2025 07:47

I’m 9 weeks today. Sickness comes and goes for me this morning felt really sickly but feel better once I eat something- my boobs however today wow so sore 😩

I had my first midwife appointment on Friday and got set up on the badger app just waiting my app coming through on there think il book a private scan at 10 weeks though. Just need to know everything is still ok 🙏🏻

confused2025 · 10/08/2025 08:10

@PlanBFertilityif you don’t get it by end of next week, call the maternity hospital you selected up and asking for the booking department. My morning sickness seems to be getting under control but it’s still there esp when I go to take my prenatal tabs so have to get my OH to blend them in a juice for me. @Timetotryagain you will likely have this at 12 weeks but I will be very surprised if they don’t give you a scan on your 10 week appointment. I got all my appointments at my 10 week initial appointment with bloods and urine test and convo with midwife and got a green folder to keep records + everything came through on app apart from initial bloods I had to chase x
