I've been abit quiet on here as had some bleeding on Thursday. Was sent for a scan this morning and everything is fine but have quite a bad urine infection. 9 weeks today x

Hi all. I had a bit of a sharper pain and cramps on my left side and started to worry but I think I might’ve just overdone it today. Couldn’t finish dinner as suddenly felt really nauseous and had to rush upstairs to the hotel room as thought I will be sick :/ feeling so exhausted as well... I’m usually always on the go and busy and feeling so shattered every afternoon is really annoying...

Glad to hear all is ok @bitzy12. And sorry to hear you are feeling so horrible @Scoobysue & @Helen! Let’s hope not much longer and we are all back to normal selves...

I'm not eating very much due to feeling rubbish I'm ok on a morning but by time 2/3 comes I can barley eat anything I havnt actually been sick but I've felt it loads, I'm worried I'm not eating enough but I've no idea how much is enough, today I've had a bowl of cereal and 2 boiled eggs with 2 pieces of toast by the OH has just made me some pasta and I can't eat it, I've got cyclizine from my doctor but he scared me a bit when he said only take it when I'm desperate and when I'm actually been sick so I havnt taken it yet

Hi ladies I’m really worried, DH has used white spirit for a household job and the smell is so strong, it’s apparently known to cause birth defects. I’m so upset Sad

Try not worry about dates. I was expecting to be 6 weeks when I went for a scan with my son. They said I was only 5 and to come back in 2 weeks to be re scanned.....2 weeks later I was back where I should be measuring at 8. Every pregnancy is different and they all grow at different rates x

cougarsrus · 03/02/2018 20:41

Thank you, I'm holding onto that. God bless x

bitzy12 · 03/02/2018 20:44

How far along do you think you are @cougarsrus ?

RedRobin7 · 03/02/2018 20:47

@Marriageoftrueminds Try not to worry. I am sure it just means long term exposure to it. Science labs use it daily, so a lady who works in a lab is considered a high risk. Keep your house well ventilated and ask your husband not to use it.

I know what you mean though, it's hard not to panic. My husband started painting last weekend and the smell was so strong I freaked out.

cougarsrus · 03/02/2018 21:12

@bitzy12

6 week 4 days from LMP but 6 weeks 1 from ovulation x

Woodchuck9 · 03/02/2018 21:55

Hi ladies, I'm exactly 7 weeks now 😁

Marriageoftrueminds · 03/02/2018 22:02

@redrobin7 thanks for your reassurance. I think I’m having so many freak-outs because the last baby was an ectopic and it took two years to conceive a healthy one and I feel so responsible! I know we all do. Thanks again. Husband put the offending chemical away as soon as I asked and smell is all long gone now so I’m trying to relax x

I have felt a bit better today. Have kept down food and managed to eat a small amount of salad and pitta bread at tea time.
Was sick a little while ago but was mainly phlemb due to cold I have had for a few wks now.
So quite pleased I have kept everything down today.

Michaela27 · 04/02/2018 07:47

Morning!
This is my first pregnancy & im nearly 8 weeks. I have had severe nausea & sickness that has sometimes lasted throughout the whole day!
I was taking pregnacare but have stopped as I had a feeling it was what was making me feel worse, and now the sickness & constant nausea has now eased! Has anyone else had this?

SC126 · 04/02/2018 08:00

@michaela27 I've just stopped my pregnacare too and am just taking folic acid for a few days. I was having bad diarrhoea and all day nausea which I suspect was caused by the pregnacare. So far it was eased but will see how it goes.

niclw · 04/02/2018 08:35

Got my first appointment with my midwife in half an hour. Smile

Scoobysue10 · 04/02/2018 08:37

Good luck with your appointment niclw.

Scoobysue10 · 04/02/2018 08:53

When relaxing on sofa or laying in bed I sometimes feel what I can only describe as little pops or little jumps. I am only 10 wks so know it's too early for feeling baby move.
Is anyone else feeling weird movements.

Penguin34 · 04/02/2018 09:12

Hi all, how is everyone?

Im 7+3 due 20/09.
I wish I was feeling morning sickness, just something to make it all.
I had a miscarriage at 6+5 in October and since I found out I was pregnant I can't stop checking for blood, it's so stressful, I'm
Checking at least once an hour and every tiny little thing I feel (wind probably) I panic.
I had an early scan last week and had a panic attack on the couch! I feel much better seeing that little fast heartbeat.
Anyone else the same?
Xx

Penguin34 · 04/02/2018 09:14

I take my pregnacare max tablets at night l, I find that if I take any vitamin in tablets in the morning I feel terribly sick and often was (sensitive tummy)
Just thought this might help those with sickness x

Ktn35 · 04/02/2018 09:54

@penguin34 I’m the same and had to book and early scan to help me cope. I just try and talk about it like a baby and focus on it alive at the end. Sounds silly but i’m Having nuaghtmares about it dying and horrible flashing visions of it. It’s really dark! I have found the best thing when I feel like that is to look at baby names or prams and try to change the focus only my thoughts towards September!

On another note has anyone got a hard belly? Mine is definitely harder and more rounded than it was at only 6-7 weeks???? I though it might be wind but it doesn’t feel like bloating? I am a size 16 so was expecting to take longer to show!

Scoobysue10 · 04/02/2018 10:07

Ktn35.
I am a size 12 and tall at 5ft 7. I didn't show with my first till I was 6 mths and I was a size 10 then.
My second I was showing between 14 -16 wks. And again was a size 10.
Actually loosing a bit of weight due to not eating properly. I put on exactly 3 st with last 2 pregnancies as had water retention both times. So will probably balloon up this time too and hopefully have another small bump.
