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

How is everyone getting on? This weather is amazing! I’m melting and tbh relieved I’m not heavily pregnant in the heat.

Hi all I’m now 9weeks + 5 days. Sickness easing off slowly.
Is anyone suffering really bad bloating? I look five months pregnant Hmm. Any tips for easing it? It’s quite uncomfortable, god help me when I’m heavily pregnant lol

Onekidnoclue · 25/06/2020 14:33

Glad the sickness is easing @Sonny124. I fine fennel tea helps a bit with bloating normally and I tend to do bicycle legs to release any trapped wind! Sorry for the TMI!

Can anyone recommend a stretch mark stuff?

Seeker2020 · 25/06/2020 15:16

My only significant symptom now is sore breasts and AWFUL bloating. I feel like I'm going to literally pop.

I'm trying to reduce the snacks in the evening. Generally would help if I could go back to being sugar free but I just don't have the will power.

My bloating seems to start really high up, right from under my boobs. I'm worried this is fat from lack of exercising!!

Agree with the bicycle legs tip! Also stretching back and forth on knees and elbows also helps with excess gas. All very undignified!!!

@Onekidnoclue such wonderful news

I am having a don't feel pregnant day , driving myself crazy !!!!!!

Tink2020 · 25/06/2020 20:26

@lauraha85 I go through that every day, changes throughout ... had a lovely dream about telling my brother then about an hour later, panicking ....

Onekidnoclue · 25/06/2020 20:38

It’s torturous! I had the scan this morning and I’m already panicking something might be wrong 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
Since I had the bleed I’ve felt so much better, not at all sick and almost normal levels of energy. Was part of the reason I was so sure I wasn’t pregnant. It’s enough to drive anyone batty and I was in a questionable place MHwise anyway!

Hi ladies, had my 12 week scan yesterday and all was well. Just got to get through this MS phase now. It really is kicking my butt. How are you all coping in the heat?

Tink2020 · 26/06/2020 11:32

I actually feel pregnant today. Exhausted walking round shops. My bump / bloat is huge and my back is starting to hurt 😂
@seeker2020 I’m glad your scan went ok. I’m surviving in a cool living room / hallway, drinking cold drinks and eating watermelon 🍉 😂

Lauraha85 · 26/06/2020 11:40

@Tink2020
Yes my pregnancy symptoms are defiantely back with a vengeance today- been sick all bloody morning

angelascott · 26/06/2020 17:38

Got another scan tomorrow just to check how things are and I'm soooo worried, we haven't had any issues and Ive got many pregnancy symptoms but I think until I see the heart beat again I'll be worried x (10+2 tomorrow, last scan was at 7+3)

Hope everyone is well x
