Hi @CowBrow and everyone, thought I would start a new thread since the old one has filled up and I can't find another! If there is one and I've missed it, let me know Smile how's everyone doing?

I wondered why I couldn't post a little while ago! X

Frizzy1986 · 22/02/2019 15:05

I can't find one either so I'll jump on.
I've had a nice day out in Lytham today including fish and chips and lovely sunshine. Last day before being back ay work next week. Hoping I'll be feeling a bit better as I am shattered all the time
I also had to buy some size 16 jeggings today as I fit nothing and we have a weekly dress down day at work. Though 2 sizes up would give me wiggle room.
Feeling a bit sick now but that could be because I am texting in the passenger seat.
I'm still really freaked by my cramps and occasional pink cm tinges. Scan yesterday went fine. They found a heartbeat but there is something in my gut that is telling me that it's going to go wrong.

Hi @Dreamer2019! Let's hope everyone else finds us OK Grin

Hiya!
@SadieSue29 - you had mentioned exercise in the last thread, my understanding is that we are encouraged to keep up whatever exercise we have been doing unless it is extreme. If you've just started it recently it's probably best to keep it at an easy gentle pace rather than pushing yourself too hard. That being said I am a runner and am having to work really hard to pace myself and not run my best!

As for yoga I think most places say that it's appropriate to join pregnancy yoga classes from about 12 weeks, probably mostly because they are worried that if something goes wrong you might blame them. Realistically if something does go wrong it is probably not due to exercise but rather genetic issues.

Thanks for copying me in @Secretlifeofme Sadly, am no longer in the October club :(

Frizzy1986 · 22/02/2019 16:50

It's really bad that I'm already looking at another scan around 10-11 weeks so I at least have a date to look towards. It's stupid as I should just wait until 12 week NHS one as going early won't change anything at this point. Damn anxiety and coming off the anxiety meds to ttc.

Frizzy1986 · 22/02/2019 16:51

So sorry flyingplum I hope that you have a more positive experience in the future

SadieSue29 · 22/02/2019 16:55

Thanks coconut latte.

We only joined start of February and then I was ill so actually haven't done any exercise other than making an effort to walk a lot.

I am really worrying about weight gain during pregnancy and really want to keep it to a minimum. My partner keeps trying to encourage me to do to intense classes!

We have just been on holiday for the week feel much better now we're home.

CZFR · 22/02/2019 17:08

I thought that October thread had gone quite! 😂 xx

@saffy347 I only had a private one yesterday at 7+5. Heartbeat seen and measurements were exactly 7+5 but I just overly worry.

Darma87 · 22/02/2019 18:29

Hello, mind if I join? Baby due 22nd Oct, currently 5w3d. Been TTC for 10 months for 1st baby with an early mc previous cycle at 4w4d. Feeling positive but still pretty nervous, taking each day as it comes! Excited for an October baby as both me and DP are late October babies, so if I go 1 week over its very likely that baba will share one of our birthdays!

DaddysGirl36 · 22/02/2019 18:30

Tried to post this on other thread but it's obvs closed now...

@whitevixen I went through a MMC in 2016 where we didn't find out until 12 week scan. Worst feeling ever. I therefore had 2 early scans with my DS & they were so reassuring. Not going to with this pregnancy as my symptoms are strong, the same as with DS1 & with the first I had none at all

@glitterandunicorns I'm so sorry to hear about your bad news at the scan. A heartbeat is a good sign & although 2 weeks sounds a lot of time, you could have ovulated early or twice that month & also sperm lives for up to 5 days so fingers crossed for you. The waiting game is just awful. Sending hugs

I am on Cyclizine for my nausea which is horrific. I had a bad day the first day I took it but am giving it another go as I'm desperate. I have an 11 month old DS to look after so being ill every day is not an option

Copied list to new thread. Had to go back to posts from 17th Feb to find it so there may be people not on it. Just copy, paste and add yourself in Smile

My GP surgery rang today to reschedule my midwife appointment from the 11th to the 5th March, so not long to wait for that now Smile

MummyHenman2be · 22/02/2019 19:41

Aha! Found the new thread!

Found a groupon deal for an early scan for £39 so have booked one for next Friday at 2pm. I'm so anxious this time round so I'm hoping all is ok.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Can someone also let me know how we DM people on here? I'd like to be added to the FB group as I find it so difficult to keep up on here but can't figure out how to DM someone to get added!

Thank you xx

Newyearsameoldshit · 22/02/2019 19:47

Hello, can i join the party?!
Due October 18th, second baby, 6 weeks today and feeling like total shite Smile

faelavie · 22/02/2019 19:58

Hi again all!

Bad day today, terrible nausea and reflux, feeling like I've got a lump in my throat all the time. Just feeling miserable really.

kdd1980 · 22/02/2019 20:00

@Newyearsameoldshit we're due date buddies! I'm also due my second on the 18th Oct. l went to the zoo today with my little boy and I'm so exhausted I've gone to bed! Didn't feel too sick sort from this morning and now which is a blessing! It seems to come and go for me. Hope you feel better soon

Secretlifeofme · 22/02/2019 20:02
