Due January - anyone else?

[Onekidnoclue]

Just got my BFP after six bloody long months of trying. Thrilled but a bit weirded out! Anyone in the same boat?

I brought this from not on the high street but I can't stand the smell at all 🤢 I wonder if it would work for anyone else

I’m now 6wks +2 and experiencing no symptoms. Is anyone else in the same boat?
@ Onekidnoclue I am also going about as I did before pregnancy. Still maintaining social distance and washing hands that’s it

6 weeks today and I think the nausea has set in! I was gagging over the toilet bowl (sorry tmi) but nothing coming up. Felt nauseous as soon as my eyes opened

@hopefulmummie - that's around the time it started for me. I had a couple of weeks of just being really nauseous with nothing actually coming up and then 8 weeks it all became a bit more intense. I'm at 9+3 and having a little bit of a better time but evenings are bad. Are you resting enough?

@seeker2020 it's horrible feeling isn't it. Yeah because I've been bleeding midwife told me to rest so I have been the last week

@hopefulmummie - good, make sure you get lots of rest and water. The magazines and celebrities don't do us any service by making this stage look glamorous or easy.

Morning all, interesting you mention safety from CV @onekidnoclue, I've been thinking about this lately. The information available isn't quite consistent and I've found it confusing.

I've still been out to the shops when I need to, albeit a little less frequently and will probably hold fire when it comes to mixing with family even when lockdown eases.

I’m on furlough at the moment do just going for walks for exercise and only to shops or chemist if I really have too. Not sure when I will be back at work though

I'm 8+1 now and have been back at work for 4 days this week. I work in a nursery and we have a lot less children. In which is nice but still on my feet all day. By the end of my shift on Thursday I was exhausted and felt sick, it lasted all of Thursday evening and the whole day Friday. I think the sickness was worse because I was so tired maybe? I'm feeling a little better today but spending the day resting!

Hi all! Due 20th Jan had early scan last week and at 6+6 and saw heartbeat, this is mh 3rd child but 1st with my partner.

So had my scan they done a normal ultrasound and couldn't see anything but she said it could just be too early to see anything and cause I haven't been bleeding heavy it's not a bad thing. They're gonna scan me again in 2 weeks and if nothing there they'll do an internal scan.

Not sure what to think really didn't get the answers I needed :(

@Hopefulmummie I'm sorry you didn't get the answers you wanted. It's very strange that they didn't do an internal scan very frustrating for you

@Hopefulmummie hi hun so I had an early scan at 7+5 it was a private scan and it was internal. She showed me on the screen which looked like a big blob in fact bigger than the baby itself and told me that it is bigger than usual but nothing to worry about and I will experience some bleeding as this will always come away that some woman notice it and some don't some just get spotting and others almost like the start of a period I've never had this before and it still hasn't come away so try not to worry x

This is my first pregnancy (I am currently 6 Weeks + 3). I am quite nervous as I don’t know what to expect. What’s classed as normal cramping? I have the occasional period like cramps and some muscular, tight feeling cramps x

@Tink2020 that's completely normal hun I'm getting really bad period pains at night like they wake me up x

I’m the same first pregnancy and I’ve had a fair bit of cramping, getting it most days and it’s a bit like period cramps... I’m 6 weeks 1 day Xx

That puts my mind at rest a bit, I have my booking appointment in ten days so will probably feel better then too.

@gracex4 that's reassuring thank you. It really helps hearing similar stories.

My bleeding has almost but gone away. Hoping it stays away I couldn't deal with the stress of it lol

I get that I feel like I'm waiting for mine to come and go and it's not then I'm like why isn't it happening 😬 I'm 9 weeks Monday x

@gracex4 I know you feel always on edge. But I've read loads it's so common throughout pregnancy just one of them things

Has anyone got any weird cravings I can't stop eating marmite, with my boys I craved talc n powder i used to eat it! 🤢

@gracex4 haha no way! I’ve not had any yet, not really had much of an appetite but I’m forcing myself to eat anyway Xx

@gracex4 I've started eating peanut butter and banana on toast for breakfast. Not something I ever thought about before.

I've gone off coffee and chocolate. Even though I've having decafe coffee since January.

I'd love to hear some funny ones 🤣 I can't drink coffee at all an I live off it usually. So at the very start I craved milk couldn't get enough of it in fact We got a milkman 3 times a week which we still have because I'm to embarrassed to cancel him 🤣 but I can't touch the stuff x

Wish I had gone off chocolate
I’m currently putting marmite on everything. Pasta. Cheese. Cucumber. At this point I’m even disgusting myself
