September babies 2018

[Pinkslink17]

Hey everyone I thought I'd start a thread for September babies!

I've found out I was pregnant yesterday which was amazing! I'm a first time mum so I'm new to all of this, conceived cycle 2.

When should I contact GP to confirm pregnancy, has anyone got any advice this early on?

@snowy1982 sprite has no caffeine but coke does I always check the labels and sprite was recommended for m/s.

42mg of caffeine in Diet Coke and 32mg in normal coke

Every days a school day isn’t it!! I just assumed they were all much of a muchness, really surprised ordinary coke has less than Diet Coke

@snowy1982 more crap in Diet Coke people think it's healthier as nearly no calories but it's just packed full of sweeteners and chemicals.

What stuff can and can't you eat? Main things?

@helen290 I know there is a lot of chemical crap in Diet Coke but I hadn’t realised it had an affect on the caffeine

@snowy1982 I don't know why it has more but that's what it says weird

@MissSophieB397 look at this NHS website will tell everything you need to avoid www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/foods-to-avoid-pregnant/?

When did everyone's morning sickness start?

4w today and same symptoms for the last ten days (emotional, constant back ache, on and off headache, slightly enhanced smell but no taste and appetite is either on or its off), no development.

Know I should be dreading it but right now resisting the urge to keep testing to be sure!! FRER has quickly become my most moronic expensive habit. Probably why they advise not to start until missed AF

My morning sickness has gradually been coming on since about 5weeks I think. I haven’t vomited at all (some people never do) but nauseas everyday. When it started I was mildly nauseas late afternoon/early evening, then developed to all evening, last couple days I’ve been getting it in morning too, but evenings are always the worst.

I don't think mornin sickness starts till 6 weeks plus I don't think? I'm 4+4 today and just had terrible backache and my boobs are so sore xx

My nausea started at 6 weeks I have it most of the day been sick a few times it's usually worse morning time and in the evening but the last two days it's been mostly in the morning much better in the evening. I am now 7 weeks 4 days.

Helen 290. Hi hun. Thanks for the advice, I know too much caffeine not good. Probably having about 2 small glasses at the most. Currently drinking cold ginger beer. Drinking eating cold things seems to help with feeling sick.
My sickness and queeziness started about 6wks. I'm 7wks + 4 today. Some days are better than others. Just hate the feeling sick all day that i've had since yesterday.
Really drinking to drink more water as still dehydrated.

Oooh Helen290 we are due the same time.

@Scoobysue10 we are 😊 hehe, looks like I might have a urine infection which explains the back ache so that's a slight relief I guess, the reduction in nausea is still a bit concerning lol you said your nausea is better some days I have been having most of the day but today and yesterday mostly just in the morning have you had that too?

Helen290
When it started it was worse in the mornings. Then started eating ginger biscuits last wkend and drinking ginger beer and the sickness improved.
But yesterday afternoon and evening I felt so sick but wasn't. Was sick this morning and felt ill all morning so have started back on the ginger biscuits and ginger beer this afternoon and feeling alot better again.
Have you tried ginger to see if that helps ??

I am so excited to be posting about my September baby! Just found out the other day, I'm 3w + 5d. Symptoms: achey back, tired, need to wee a lot. No sickness yet (but that comes at like 6w right?) I've just bought 'How to Grow a Baby and Push It Out' - too soon, or sensible forward planning?! Xx

Hello! Found out the other day that my 1st baby will be a September bub :) I'm 3w+5d. Symptoms: achey back, some aches in hips, tiredness. Sickness is more like 6w right? Just bout 'how to grow a baby and push one out' - too soon, or just sensible forward planning?! Xx

I am so sorry my post uploaded three times!!! Apologies apologies

I've had mild cramps all afternoon, no spotting or anything though. I've had a miscarriage so I'm just really paranoid but is cramping normal? I'm 4+1

Thanks re morning sickness @snowy1982 @brownbear84 @helen290, will enjoy my last two weeks of eating with gusto peace and quiet then! And keep trying not to test......

Congrats @splendidsqueak7 you're a day behind me & same symptoms, plus raging / absent appetite on and off. Also succumbed to "what to expect" arriving today Definitely sensible forward planning

Seems fairly normal from what I've read @samanthajonespr but fx for you
