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'm finding it's normal. Grin Hurray for the second trimester!

All my early pregnancy symptoms are gone now at 14+1, and have been gone for a couple of weeks. Now my only symptoms are that I'm uncomfortable sleeping/lying on my belly and I seem to be developing carpal tunnel in my left hand. Which admittedly was not a thing I thought pregnancy could cause, but here it is.

Scan day today. Feeling sick. Not sure if it's ms or nerves. Been gagging alot already. Now to drink lots of water. Anyone else got their scan today?

fluffyunicorns86 · 28/03/2019 08:47

@claireb2203 good luck today am sure everything will be fine. My scan is Tuesday next week and so nervous and anxious and gets worse the closer I get.

@Mummsie1, we decided before our viability scan that, if it was a singleton we wouldn’t find out what we’re having but, if twins (which it is), we would find out as there is so much more to get prepared. We don’t plan on telling people though so there will still be an element of surprise!!

@Claireb2203, good luck today; despite having a viability scan at 6+6 I was still worried things wouldn’t necessarily all be well when I went for my dating scan on Tuesday - thankfully it was fine!!

Off car hunting today if I can shake the headache I’ve got - found them really horrible and paracetamol doesn’t seem to do anything to get rid of them. Most other symptoms are getting better now at 13+0 today though finding I can only eat a few mouthfuls of food before I’m feeling stuffed. I am also still being sick from time to time - and the twins have decided they don’t like either Chinese or Indian food so looks like they’re off the menu for the time being!!

Gods luck today @Claireb2203! I have my scan today as well and am so worried I feel as though I'd just rather not go tbh.
@Rememberallball your post made me laugh where you said the twins decided they don't like Chinese or Indian 😂 That would be a struggle for me!

princesstinnedpeach · 28/03/2019 11:27

My baby would do well to go off Chinese Blush couldn't bear the heartburn from an Indian though!

russiandwarf · 28/03/2019 11:30

😂 @princesstinnedpeach

Scan date just came through the door...next friday the 5th. Im so nervous. Nervous that it will be there bit have no arms and legs or something seriously wrong like ectopic pregnancy.

Secretlifeofme · 28/03/2019 13:08

Hi all, just came back to update you. We had a scan today at 9+2 and all was well, the baby is measuring 9+4 with a strong heartbeat of 166bpm and we saw it waving its little arms and legs! So excited. Last time we got to this stage, we found out that the baby had died at 6+6, so this feels like a miracle! Smile

your welcome @secretlifeofme I got my 12 week scan next week and I am so anxious and nervous about it having losses makes u so paranoid about everything Smile

Secretlifeofme · 28/03/2019 13:40

I know what you mean @fluffyunicorns1986 but I'm sure everything will be OK. The risks of miscarriage by this stage are actually really low. Good luck to you for next week Flowers

Thank you @secretlifeofme I trying to keep positive, yeah I was just unfortunate to suffer a late miscarriage at 18 weeks October last year so got so much care this time round including from pre term team to check things over. Thank you will update after scan.

Claireb2203 · 28/03/2019 14:55
