BFPs after MC - Christmas Cake for Christmas Babies - Thread 1

[Cakelaur]

Here we go ladies!!! Let's continue it here and hope we all just switch from the TTC group to the pregnancy group

I know how you feel @hayleyfx - I’m having lots of cramping and it makes me so anxious!

Just had my midwife call to book my first scan for next week - super nervous now! I’m just already feeling so negative about it and preparing for the worst but hearing all the lovely stories here of how things are progressing well after a previous loss does really help!

Has anyone else got a 'bump' already?! Im only 11 weeks and well, it looks like I've swallowed a balloon! It's getting difficult to hide to be honest but I won't be telling anyone until at least after the scan next week.

Haha @athers666 I'm currently on holiday 11 weeks on Saturday and I'm so bloated it is unreal! I start off ok but then as the day goes on there's no hiding it or sucking it in! Currently have a podge haha x

Yep me too @Athers666 - really battling to hide it! Had a friend round today who I saw a week ago and she was like yeah that is definitely a baby bump... 2 weeks til scan!

@xLeanne128 ha, I feel your pain! Mine gets worse throughout the day as well, just so uncomfortable!

Can't wait for a proper little bump 😍 when's your scan xx

@Olivecake it’s so nerve wracking! Over the moon to be pregnant again but I’m ridiculously nervous this time 😬

@kaytees I'm glad it's not just me, lol.
@xLeanne123 the scan is on Wed next week. I'm absolutely terrified.

How exciting keep us updated. Mine 2 week today! Not amused I have to wait so long x

Me too @Athers666 Wednesday at 4pm!! Eek!!

I think I've got a bump but is it bump or is it fat. Doubt it's bloat as gas has defo been escaping, as I keep saying to DH we defo have a gassy baby! Baby also likes junk food!

@Cakelaur mine's at 10am. Pretty sure i won't be sleeping a wink he night before.

@Cakelaur @Athers666 mine is Wednesday too at midday! I'm on holiday and still think about absolutely nothing else!

@Athers666 I've also totally got a bump and as you say, getting difficult to hide. I'm gonna have to pass it off as holiday indulgence when I get home tomorrow! Which tbh it probably partly is!

Ok so 12+1 today and fairly sure I've felt the flutters a couple of times! Anyone else had this? Is it even possible or just my head playing tricks?

I feel like I have @Wiggle4, but it must be too early!

12 weeks today. Hoping this is bump, not bloat!! I haven't felt any flutters but I did have a bit of an appetite today.

Defo looks like bump Cakelaur! I just look fatter. I'm 11 weeks now, haven't felt any flutters, can't wait though.

My scan is on Thurs, starting to feel really anxious due to the bleeds, all day sickness and now never ending hay fever.

How are you all feeling?

Nice bump cake! My flab has got flabbier around my middle! I'm definitely showing a bit. But, it is my 4th pregnancy. Still refusing to wear mat clothes yet. The hair bobble holding my jeans up will do for a little while more!

I'm still feeling nauseous and v.tired peaches. Although not as bad as last week. Things normally improve at 14 weeks for me, so getting closer. Of course anytime the symptoms aren't that bad I worry!

(Scan also on Thursday)

SpongeBobGrannyPants my flab has gone flabbier too! But I haven't put on any weight, weird!

My scan is Thursday too and I feel like I'm showing although I'm only 11+4 haha

Eek!! I'm getting excited and mega nervous for the scan. I had some spotting last week. But did figure out it would have been when my period would have been due (if that makes sense) so possibly that. 🤞🏻

I'm sure all will be perfect @peachesarenom especially if your really sick. That's the only thing that's keeping me calm at the mo.

@Primrose16 how you getting on babe?

@hayleyfx how you doing? Feeling calmer yet?

Eek fast approaching second trimester, CANNOT WAIT!! I'm hoping this may be the trimester I find my "glow" 🤞🏻🌈

I'm feeling worse than ever. Seeing everyone's scans, bumps, list of symptoms and 'sickness is a good sign, healthy pregnancy blah blah' 'symptoms are good' I feel completely normal at 11+2 so am more anxious than ever that something has happened... Anyone else feeling normal??

Defo a bump @Cakelaur - can tell by the top of it! How exciting. You're so close to second trimester!

I just look chunkier 😂 am hanging out til next weds for my scan so I can tell people because right now I just look like ive eaten s lot of cake (I've only had a little bit, honest)

@xLeanne128 I have days where I feel symptom free for most of it and feel panicked. It can be really hard to tell while you're waiting for a scan I think!! For me, anyway. I was so sick every day with my first that I am astonished at 10 and a bit weeks I'm managing to eat a reasonably balanced diet.

I haven't had any symptoms at all though it's not that they come and go. I don't have any x
