I did a thread like this in conception
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/1394415-TTC-Hysterics-thread

I found it very helpful,and I think others did too.
Pg is such a stressful time full of worry anxieties from the very serious to the very silly.
We all all need a safe place to vent these worries without judgement or made to feel guilty.
Soooooo..
Let the Hysterics Commense!.

Bfn again today.seems its not to be. Good luck with your pregnancies ladies xx

kirrinIsland · 08/04/2012 10:55

Keep trying morecoffee - false positives are pretty rare?

hoe def head to the GP on Tuesday if you need to. I had anti- sickness tabs in my last pregnancy, and while they don't make it go away completely, they definitely made life a bit more bearable. Are you being sick constantly? Make sure you drink plenty.

CODwidow · 08/04/2012 13:51

I've only done one test now I feel I should do another just to check! Feels nf a bit crampey today and lower back pain is a killer but hoping its all the stretching that's going on.

Cookiesandcream06 · 08/04/2012 16:37

I am feeling constantly exhausted. I forgot how completely dead I felt last time, and this time with a DD to attend to as well, it's a struggle. I definitely feel pg that's for sure.

EggsMichelle · 08/04/2012 17:47

I'm panicking because I'm nearly 7wks and haven't had any morning sickness. Of cause I know that it can start any time from 6wks onward, 2 out of 10 women don't get it and i should count my blessings that is hasn't started yet. However i appear hung up on the high level of hormones is good for pregnancy and causes the MS, and low levels of hormones can mean miscarriage!

kirrinIsland · 08/04/2012 21:23

eggs my ms started at 5 weeks this time, but in my previous 3 pregnancies it started at 8 weeks so don't worry - there's still time! I also know several people who were lucky enough to get little or no sickness and it all turned out fine for them :)

Hoebag · 09/04/2012 11:57

I can keep food down, its odd somedays I'll be sick 5 times some just one.
tbh the constant dizzy nausea and not being able to stand up a long time is the worst aspect. totally rules my life.

yesterday I had to call my mum who live less than a mile away to come and bring to her house coz I couldnt walk and had spent they day crawling round the flat :(

I think I'll be on tomato soup for a while.

Hoebag · 09/04/2012 11:58

Eggs at 7wks you can ask your early preg unit for an early scan if you're worried.

Hoebag · 10/04/2012 09:08

Urgh already been bloodyh sick after doing the 'eat a cracker before you get up' trick arrgghhhhh

can be doing with 8 months of this lol.

CODwidow · 10/04/2012 09:50

I'm fine as long as I keep eating the minute Im hungry then the queasiness is horrible. But after losing 2.5 stone since Xmas it feels wrong to just keeping eating! Lots of apples and bananas I guess :)

Cookiesandcream06 · 10/04/2012 16:14

Oh no! That doesn't sound fun at all. I am so grateful that I am yet to be sick, although still early days. Wasn't sick with DD So maybe I'm lucky?! I've been an irritable snappy cow the past few days, and really grumpy from feeling tired. Keep having mints to disguise metal taste/fool my body into thinking its eating real food. Keep wanting carbs though- nightmare!

Hoebag · 11/04/2012 12:45

Had an early scan today, not a dating one

All is okay , i'm 8 wks 4 days :)

kirrinIsland · 11/04/2012 18:26

That's good hoe
I've got one tomorrow - should be 9+5 - ridiculously nervous!

Hoebag · 12/04/2012 09:55

Aw Good luck !!

Sproglet · 12/04/2012 10:06

Hi, wasn't going to post yet as I feel I am tempting fate as the last time I finally got the the courage to post I miscarried a couple of days later. I am now 5+5 weeks and bricking it ! I lost the pg a day before my 7 week mark so the closer I get to it with this pregnancy the more neurotic I get !!!! I already have two children DS 12 and DD7. Sorry if TMI but at the moment I am sleeping really badly as I am so worried that I am going to wake up bleeding like the last time...I think I am losing my mind ! I keep telling myself that I am lucky that I have only had one miscarriage out of concieving all my children and there are women out there that have many more......but I still feel so scared as I desperatly want this one to work out so fingers crossed and I will be joining you ladies whole heartedly with mutual neurosis Grin

CODwidow · 12/04/2012 10:44

Hi sproglet I know what you mean as that is what happened to me with my mc I was (what I thought) 11wks, baby had stopped at 6wks but I just went to bed and then woke at 2am. So I'm the same with sleeping. X

kirrinIsland · 12/04/2012 11:50

sproglet Congratulations :)
I am now 9+5 following a mmc in January and I haven't stopped worrying, so I know how you feel. Any chance of you getting an early scan to help reassure you?

I've had a scan today, and all looks well :) I've already had 2. Like I said, I'm a little paranoid!

Sproglet · 12/04/2012 12:41

Thanks for your support 'Kirren and 'COD'. I don't know if a scan would make much differance....I know I am definatly pregnant it is just if it sticks or not....if I can just get to the 8 week mark I think i will relax a little.........maybe.....or....maybe notWink
Just can't or won't let myself get excited at the moment, actually feel quite low which is not how it is meant to be ! But on the plus side I have nothing to indicate that a MC is going to happen so will just focus on that !
What are people doing about bras !? My boobs are hardly being contained anymore but bras are so expensive and I am still so early into my pregnancy and don't really want to have to splash out yet untill I am sure !
And is anyone else craving salty foods ? Can't get enough of the stuff and now I am worried I will suffer from High Blood Pressure Hmm!

Hoebag · 12/04/2012 14:40

Hi Sproglet congratulations,

sorry about your mc, good luck with the rest of your pregnancy.

Yeah im craving very savoury stuff.

I'm showing already :( im only 8 wk

kirrinIsland · 12/04/2012 20:39

I'm showing too hoe but I was told at my scan today that the baby measures 3 cm - so I'm guessing my bump is bloat not baby!

Hoebag · 12/04/2012 22:23

Yeah true I've put on so much weight though :(

I've got my sea bands but still feel quite queasy.

Spananah · 12/04/2012 23:11

Help!! I am slowly going mad ...

I am currently 5+3, and have an early scan booked for two weeks' time. However, I'm not sure how I'm going to cope until then. My mood varies wildly: I was feeling so happy and excited and confident until yesterday, when I convinced myself something awful was going to happen and went to sleep in tears, only to wake up in the middle of the night crying in fear of a miscarriage. No morning sickness, but I know it is very early. Symptoms so far are sore boobs and tiredness.

I think the issue is that we conceived on our first try, which was not expected after I had quite a few issues last year with my cycle/anovulation. I feel so incredibly lucky, but as if we don't deserve this, iyswim... and therefore it seems more likely that it will all be taken away from us.

Argh: I had anticipated that the 2ww would be terrible. What I didn't realise is that the 12ww is actually far worse! (although of course, in a lucky, very happy to have conceived kind of way....)
