I'm having a Dr google day and it's sent me nuts! Why do we do it???? Why do we google anything???
Especially "cramps in early pregnancy" I've been told by google it's down to ectopic 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

God.. I now can't stop obsessing over how my tummy feels! 😩😩

Anyhow.. how is everyone??
Don't worry @Katbaby I range from freezing to boiling!

Has anyone watched what to expect when your expecting?? Oh my god it's sad but lovely too 😓
I'm a mess today girls, forgive me. 🙈

@Katbaby they'll get there you'll soon be having to wear a bra 😂 I feel ok this afternoon this morning felt icky but seems to have passed. I'm off work this weekend too which I'm so happy about hopefully I'll sleep better.

@djmbaker ohh god I'm with you there, I have a sharp pain before I think it might have been wind but I googled it and didn't go down well. DP said I'm mental and need to stop 🙈 I just wish I could sleep from tonight until 12 weeks and wake up and baby is fine haha, hope your okay though lovely x

Elmlee · 01/05/2020 15:26

@Rnic1x
Yes it's our first, what about you?

No I haven't seen the Mayan MC is that on Netflix?
You'll have to private message me as we are so close together. Xx

Rnic1x · 01/05/2020 15:30

@Elmlee yes it's our first too, so excited. No it's BBC iPlayer it's not as good as sons but really good!

I will do lovely, we are on about once we are all 12 weeks and all ok creating a whatsapp chat 🙌 these threads only allow 1000 comments the last one got full in a few weeks 😂 x

Afternoon ladies,

Popping back to see how you're all getting on,
I feel really good today, managed to get the clean washing pile of clothes back to where they belong I have a abandoned the ironing as we've been indoors for so long!

My bras are beginning to feel really tight around my back so I've put on a bikini top which you can tie around instead of being bear hugged all day Grin

I also keep going freezing I've put the heating on then all of a sudden I look like a tomato and open all the windows 😂🙈

I lovedddd sons of anarchy I cried when I wasn't hormonal haha!

I've also done the google search and had the same answer about the cramps however I am sure it's a digestion problem as everything slows down especially if you have been constipated sorry tmi but it's a symptom I'm experiencing atm giving me grief!

Sorry for the essay, my toddler has just emptied a whole bag of stuffing mix onto the floor 😭 so il be back shortly ♥️

PocoyoandEllie · 01/05/2020 15:56

@djmbaker google has convinced me I am having an ectopic!!! I have odd twinges on my left side!

Katbaby · 01/05/2020 16:00

@djmbaker I love what to expect when youre expecting I've seen it about 50 times. That one sad bit makes me cry every time though. I watched it last week and when the sad bit was on I went cold and goosebumps and cried😥

@Rnic1x I would have to buy a bra before I can wear one 🤪 I do have sports bras though.

Just ate nearly a full sharing bag of salt and vinegar crisps and some fruit pastels...was wanting to have a healthy pregnancy going so well...

dixiedo · 01/05/2020 16:13

@notalwaysalondoner our GP isn't letting anyone through the door. I handed it in through a window inside a glove they gave me.

Crazy time to live in general. I really hope we're all done with this completely by the time December comes around.

They've had to send it off as I've already had antibiotics so nothing until Monday now. Had a rough morning with it but me and DP dtd twice last night so maybe that's made it much worse
She said the ones I had are not for use in pregnancy and make sure I'm taking my folic acid 😬 that worried me as I never knew. Xxx

dixiedo · 01/05/2020 16:14

Is anyone really constipated by the way ? Sorry for asking. Wondering if it's normal x

djmbaker · 01/05/2020 16:14

So glad I'm not alone in the google hell!!! I promised myself I wouldn't do it after my last time but today, I succumbed.

My cramping is actually all over my tummy so I know it's normal.. it just hurts more today on the left. Which is a lethal combo when it comes to google.

I think it may actually be my UTI that's come back 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi 👋 hope you don't mind me joining. Looks like I'm due 25th December from an online calculator.
I've had a bit of bleeding, I had an early scan Tuesday but they couldn't get a heartbeat, dr thought it could be a bit early as i was only 5+4 so said not to worry yet (easier said than done) and booked another scan for in 12th May.
Haven't really had any symptoms apart from really vivid dreams and night sweats? Is anyone else experiencing that, its gross 😝 I wake up soaking!

december2020 · 01/05/2020 16:28

Afternoon everyone!
Oh gosh it took a while to catch up on this thread!

Omg Dr. Google is my downfall too! It's also convinced me I'm having an ectopic or a miscarriage. The worst thing is all we can do is wait and see until we have our appointments and scans. I think my friends thinks I'm absolutely loony haha!

Did some yoga this morning. Now not sure if I'm hungry or nauseous. It's like my body can't decide (it's had lunch so I'm not depriving it)!

New craving is vanilla yogurt 👻 no idea why!

What is everyone doing this weekend?

djmbaker · 01/05/2020 16:38

@december2020 that's the problem with google.. whatever you type in you are dying aren't you?
I've got two weeks until my scan so I've got a wait but I'm hoping tomorrow I'll wake up calmer. I woke up a tad emotional today. 🙈

I can't work out if I'm hungry or sick either.. the thought of eating makes me feel sick but I know I really need to! I think that's why I feel weak today.

Vanilla yoghurt? Yum!

Hi @Ssammy welcome!! Night sweats are a delight aren't they? 😅

OP posts:
Ssammy · 01/05/2020 16:47

@djmbaker I had never heard of night sweats as a symptom before, lovely surprise though.

I'm also spending half my life on Google, decided 3 days ago I would stop but that hasn't happened 😂

Rnic1x · 01/05/2020 17:10

So the being freezing didn't last, I've just changed my bedding and now I'm lying in sports bra like a sweaty mess on the landing 😂 I'm too tired and hot to even move god knows what dp is going to think when he comes upstairs cause I ain't moving anytime soon 🙈

djmbaker · 01/05/2020 17:29

@Rnic1x hahaha I am the exact same!! I get SOOO hot so quickly. 😂

OP posts:
notalwaysalondoner · 01/05/2020 18:22

@Ssammy welcome! My main symptoms are small cramps, very slightly sore boobs, peeing lots and being hot and cold. Also more tired than normal after about 7pm. But I’ve got away lightly so far but think I’m only 5+2 so maybe they’ll hit later!

Jealous of all you ladies who cry with hormones - I just turn into a right bitch and my husband and parents are all a bit scared of me right now! Never know if I’m going to snap their head off! It’s funny as I used to cry loads as a teenager but seem to have grown out of it...

Rnic1x · 01/05/2020 18:23

I feel like I'm starting to imagine pain and symptoms I've just been sat here and belly is hurting (I am hungry though) but I feel like a period type pain is there one second then the next it's not... Wonder if it was even there in the first place 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ssammy · 01/05/2020 18:50

@notalwaysalondoner I think if I hadn't has the bleed last week I would be happy that I'm escaping the symptoms. I am tired though but then I'm pretty sure I spent half my life moaning that I'm tired pre pregnancy too.

@Rnic1x I know exactly what you mean, I can't decide if I'm feeling nausea every now and then or if I'm just imaging it where I'm always thinking about it

SwedishAnna · 01/05/2020 19:05

Wow have had a big day at work so lots of catching up again! Nausea kicked in today so have been struggling.

@djmbaker thanks for vitamin advice will get some vitamin d too!

@Katbaby I am testing my way through the ranges! Found a decent 0.0 at Waitrose but have chucked the bottle. The 0.0 I had last night was horrid! Have lindemans 0.0 to taste for tonight! I love my red wine!

Katbaby · 01/05/2020 19:48

Well whoever mentioned thai food the other day is to blame for me laid out stuffed on the sofa!!

I had no appetite earlier and then since I ate a late lunch I've never stopped eating I feel like a right pig! Hardly moved from the sofa as well. Hate that Ive not done anything

@notalwaysalondoner I'm the same - I snap I don't cry 🤪

Elmlee · 01/05/2020 20:20

I've just had a Chinese and now ready for bed. So so tired 💤

dixiedo · 01/05/2020 22:27

These are the scratch cards we bought to give to our couple friends. I'm not sure. It would be nice to give it to them all if we were in a group but I can't see that happening any time soon 🤷🏻‍♀️
I wouldn't tell my girlfriends this way and I don't want to go social media official til much later as I'm still paranoid about negativity ☹️

I had a crazy moment when I felt symptomless they other day and ordered 50 internet cheapies off amazon. I've peed on about three today. Just for fun. I am so scared. I genuinely feel this is my first pregnancy it's completely different.
I'm still waiting for my 3+ too. I think I'm 5+1 today and midwife said due 1st Jan. I was 39 weeks exact when I delivered my two.

We were laughing today my youngest has autism. Extremely high functioning. They think aspergers, unsure if it was chemo to his brain or if he would have always been like this. Anyway, he's hilarious. The funniest little boy ever, we crack up daily with what he comes out with. But - he hates babies. He said he doesn't know why. He just really dislikes them this has been ongoing for about a year with friends babies etc. He ignores them point blank. So we were talking and it came up when watching secret life of the zoo and I pressed a little and said so why is it that don't you like them (he's extremely literal) his reply - "They're just so cute that they blow my mind and I have no words." 😩🥰🥰🥰

@Elmlee I'm desperate for a Chinese now !! We are in a small town about 1 hour from chester. We don't have deliveroo and we have about 6 terrible Indians on just eat and 3 terrible kebab places. No Chinese delivery 😣

Usually we eat out but I've been stuck cooking every night now for weeks. I can't bloody wait to eat something I haven't made myself x

djmbaker · 01/05/2020 22:58

@dixiedo I feel you!! I live in a small village about 25 miles outside chester funnily enough and we can't get anything decent delivered. Everything is pants!!
I really want pizza but proper pizza not dominos.. been craving it all day 😩

Love the scratch card idea 👌🏽

I adore your sons reasoning for not liking babies, that is absolutely adorable 😍😍

Why would anyone say anything negative about your pregnancy?? It's wonderful news, regardless of your situation etc 😍😍
