@sunshine1987 I'm exactly the same. I've tried drinking the odd cup to keep me functioning at work and to hydrate since I seem to hate drinking basically anything, water and cordial seem to be OK for a bit then I go off it. but I haven't actually enjoyed one for about 2 months.
I did manage a vanilla flavoured coffee the other week from my SILs coffee machine, but I was having a particularly good day that day! Seem to have come downhill with symptoms past 2 weeks... But it will all magically change and I will feel amazing after tomorrow when I'm 12 weeks... Right??! 🙏🙏🙏😂😂😂

@Crossfitgirl bless you, fingers crossed it's the 12 week side of the between 12 and weeks!

Had nausea all day today, pesky! 9 weeks today, less than 3 weeks til scan.

Hi :) I think I can graduate to this thread now after a very difficult week.

BFP last Friday AM, started to bleed Friday PM like a period. Sunday I was certain it was a chemical. Monday bleeding stopped dead.

Still getting a BFP today so I’m hoping that means I’ve implanted and that squishy is safe for now. Getting early pregnancy symptoms so that is kind of reassuring. Trying not to get my hopes up yet though.

App dates me as 4+6. Due 29/9/19.

sunshine1987 · 26/01/2019 18:27

@keyboard91 bless you, that must have been worrying for you! x

SullyWifey · 26/01/2019 18:51

Evening ladies. Thanks so much for all your lovely comments! Haven't stopped looking at my pics and feeling so so lucky to be this far.

So just quick life update on me, if y'all interested 😂 it's so funny, things happen in my life and I'm like, ooo i must tell the thread later 😂

Anyways so you may remember I was getting stressed out with house hunting. Well we finally found one that ticked all the practical boxes and was accepted! Still renting so not that exciting but still, fresh new home! Move 22nd February and I'll nearly be 17 weeks then, which seems scary!

We went out today and spent 4 hours looking at sofas and finally decided on one. Can't tell you how bloody excited I am for this sofa. Honestly!! It will be perfect for bubba and we got the 5 year protection on it just in case of baby stains!!

Finished off celebrating our achievement of deciding on a sofa by having a lovely Toby Carv!! So yes that's how easy it is for me to be co rent in this life.

Good luck with your scan tomorrow @Crossfitgirl I shall be eagerly checking for an update!!

@CookieWaffle @sunshine1987 imagine if we all had the bubs on the exact same day!! Wonder who will be first! Ahhh such exciting times ahead. We are really very lucky ladies you know xxxx

SullyWifey · 26/01/2019 18:53

Just reading back through my post, co rent?? Meant to read CONTENT. honestly I am the worst on here for typos 😂

Crossfitgirl · 26/01/2019 19:14

@sullywifey awww so pleased for you!! Sounds like an absolutely awesome day! We just ordered a new sofa a few weeks back and it was literally a huuuge deal picking one we both liked! It's so satisfying isn't it! We got the 5 year sofa shield too for the exact same reason and it's a light colour! Link us to the one you got?? I love to have a nosey! Just to note, if you've ordered it for moving, be wary that it the move could be delayed for all sorts of reasons so just bear in mind when arranging delivery... You don't want to deliver it to a home you don't own yet!
My scan is monday afternoon so will definitely update after then! And will be doing the same as I think @chaosmoon (?) did and going out for tea to celebrate afterwards.
I'm so happy, I've started to feel normal symptom wise this evening for first time in ages and DH has got a meal deal from tesco and got some sparkling rose. So I think I'll have a glass!
And I feel empowered to do so with my meal having read that chapter of expecting better! Thanks @chaos! Also what maternity pillow do you have? I have acquired 2 so far, a body pillow from MIL (looks awful) and an actual pregnancy one I got for a tenner on fb marketplace that my SIL picked up for me that I haven't got yet.

mrsof20118 · 26/01/2019 19:35

@Bettythecat I'm also blaming the hormones on OH being more irritating. Sometimes I wonder how I got pregnant Shock

stormtrooperjulian · 26/01/2019 20:22

@Keyboard91 I’m so pleased to see you here, I hope the bleeding stays away from now on!

CookieWaffle · 26/01/2019 21:32

Ahh @Keyboard91 welcome and keeping my fingers crossed for you. It is certainly a scary time xx

@SullyWifey congrats on the new place! And yes, we should take bets haha xx

SullyWifey · 26/01/2019 22:10

@Crossfitgirl oh my god I totally thought it was Sunday already. Until I read your post 😂😂 my god, having the roast dinner proper threw me off!! I'm losing my mind, but on the other hand I still have another day off tomorrow!!

I will get looking for a link but don't know if I will find one as it was from a local store!

Crossfitgirl · 26/01/2019 23:19

@sullywifey love it when you have an extra day you thought you didn't have!! Haha.
This is ours, we went for a big corner one as our living room is quite big and open plan.
Gonna have to be v careful with any food and drink!!

@Crossfitgirl I've got the email dreamgenii. It's wonderfully malleable and makes my bump feel weirdly secure. Which has only really mattered in the last 2 weeks but is suddenly all that matters.

I'm really glad your symptoms have started to shift. And that your benefiting from the book. Saddest thing for me was discovering that I could have a glass of white wine, but no longer like the taste. Typical!

Congrats on finding a new place @SullyWifey, and the new sofa, and getting an extra day to your weekend! 😂

We designed a new sofa from these guys recently - www.nabru.co.uk/design-your-own. @Crossfitgirl I love yours too! Coffee sofa are awesome.

Congratulations @Keyboard91! I'm glad things have calmed down now and I hope they stay that way.

Crossfitgirl · 27/01/2019 09:17

Thanks @chaosmoon. I had about half a glass of sparkling rose with tea and wasn't fussed for any more, but still enjoyed it! Will check out that pillow. Sounds amazing.
Welcome @keyboard91! And congratulations!

Well, how weird is this? I'm bang on 12 weeks today by LMP. And this morning, I feel fine!! I've got up, had an actual cup of tea because I actually wanted one, and have fancied porridge for breakfast rather than bland cereal so topped it with fruit... Food aversion where are you?

Is this all in my head???? This is too strange to be actually true I'm sure its psychological 😂😂They will probably all come back tomorrow worse than ever. But... Thanks magic 12 week day, I'll take it!!

ChaosMoon · 27/01/2019 09:27

Happy no symptom day @Crossfitgirl! 😊

SullyWifey · 27/01/2019 09:53

@Crossfitgirl beautiful sofa!!! We got a corner one too! @ChaosMoon I saw that site where you got yours and spent hours on it!

@Crossfitgirl it's so funny because I was exactly the same. It was like week 11 for me and one day I woke up like a new women! And I have felt pretty ok for last couple of since. But since Friday it's like I have totally regressed. Tiredness and sickness is back and it's horrible. Still not as bad as it was but still. Currently laid up in bed not wanting to move.

Also one of my DH extended family members just heard the new we are expecting. They messaged me a lovely congrats message and I said thanks so much it's been tough start with sickness etc but we really excited.

They replied with "oh that sickness thing is all in your head, just don't think about it"

😡😡 WHATTTT?!!!!! Are they for real. Oh my days.

SullyWifey · 27/01/2019 10:02

https://www.scs.co.uk/helios-2-corner-1-rhf-chaise-scatter-back/L043455SHERGAR-ASH-NOVA-YELLOWW_LIGHT-WOOD--BEN02-.html

We got the corner and then an additional 3 seater sofa too.

Found it! Love how I thought SCS was a local store 😂 their website says there's 101 stores nationwide.

ChaosMoon · 27/01/2019 13:33

Oh that's beautiful, good choice. Yeah, their sofa builder is quite addictive!

I can't believe she said that to you @SullyWifey! I find it amazing how oblivious/insensitive some people are to the fact that their experience is not the only experience to be had.

MrsC87 · 27/01/2019 16:40

So girls I've been to mothercare to look at prams, fell in love with the silver cross pioneer Brompton.
I actually can't believe I'm going to be pushing a pram in July! Still doesn't feel real.

Love the sofas ladies 😊

@MyloC here you are lovely. Welcome 😘

Crossfitgirl · 27/01/2019 17:13

@mrsc87 googled that pram. Looks really nice! Great reviews too. We've only browsed in mamas and papas once but need to do some proper research about what would best meet our needs. Thinking of doing a mothercare personal supping experience as my friend recommended it x

MrsC87 · 27/01/2019 17:15

Definitely go try them out as some are heavier than others! It's like test driving a car 😂 @Crossfitgirl
How are you feeling about your scan tomo? Excited?

Evening ladies,

Hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend?

Exhaustion has hit me like a ton of bricks this weekend. We had a house party at a friends house, I was done in by 9pm. By 1am I think I must have looked so rude, lol I could barely keep my eyes open 😴 . Feel like my legs are lead today, hoping this isn't a sign of things to come... 🤞

sunshine1987 · 27/01/2019 17:52

@mrsc87 love silver cross prams, always loved the wave. We’re thinking (fingers crossed) of having two quite close so trying to find something that converts to two, really like the wave. It’s such a minefield though lol x

PhoebeBear · 27/01/2019 18:02

@Crossfitgirl we have the same due date! 😊😊
