First Trimester Scottish Mamas

[TheDaydreamBelievers]

Thought it might be an idea to create a splinter group as the main one is getting massive!

Im 5+3 weeks, first time mum
Midwife telephone appt 13/10
Scan 03/11

Feeling burpy, bloated, and anxious!

Brown has finally started to turn to red today. Why is it always so drawn out??!

Love the ideas of you all telling family and children ❤️

@TheDaydreamBelievers it's annoying when you sit down to eat and it's an anti climax. I haven't cooked properly since about week 5 and I'm now approaching 10.

I'm sorry @Daffodil21. Is there any hope for you or is it certain that its ended? Thinking of you x

@TheDaydreamBelievers there's still a chance it'll be ok, but I can't see that happening at this point. I just want it to hurry up and get it over with. I just don't want the scan to be ok on Monday and then not be ok shortly afterwards again. I just want to know either way and stop waiting around in limbo

Absolutely understand @Daffodil21. I guess there are other causes of bleeding so it could be that it is all fine, or it could be bad news. Glad you dont have to wait too long for the scan but it must be a stressful weekend x

@TheDaydreamBelievers there's nothing I can do but wait. This is the third time we've been here. I've been taking blood thinners in case I have sticky blood, progesterone in case my levels weren't high enough, high strength folic acid, metformin because the doc thinks I have PCOS (I do too) and prednisolone in case I have natural killer cells. There's really not a lot else I could have done this time around, so it's time to get 'it' tested and find out what's going on

I’m 14+2 now and feeling definite little bubbles of movement, I’ve felt a few small thumps too!

I wish I didn’t tell the kids yet, my boys are 5 and 2 just now and they keep going on and on about their baby sister. I asked 5yo if he’ll be happy if he gets another brother but he told me “if I get a brother I will send him back” 😂😂

@singleandttc

I ended up telling him on the phone this morning, he said “who’s is it” lol and I said he didn’t need to know. Then asked if I was the mother 😂
I don’t even think he was taking it in to he fair as he then started talking about something else. Probably went better than I could have hoped for but I worry he won’t remember the next time I speak to him.
Good luck for when it’s your turn 😊

Had our private scan today.
Two wee healthy wriggly non identical beans ❤️❤️
One measuring 9+3 and one at 9+5 (I estimated I was 9+4) so we are bang on where we thought we were.
Estimated due date first few days of June but babies will be making arrival in May.

Whoa @rosegoldivy congratulations! How are you and your family feeling about twins?

@TheDaydreamBelievers me and DH are over the initial panic / shock. Like I know we are in for an absolute graft for the first year but it will be amazing. If the twins are anything like DD1 it will be fine after about 6 months 😂 until then I will be living on coffee fumes

@rosegoldivy

Congrats!! To be fair I don’t envy you, I’m freaking out at just one haha! But really pleased everything is okay with them both!

Have you told anyone yet?

@rosegoldivy Congratulations - amazing news.

@Daffodil21 - good luck for today, I have my fingers crossed for you that all is well.

Hope all you ladies are doing well otherwise. Looking forward to my booking appointment tomorrow!

Morning all, hope everyone had a nice weekend x

I had one great day where I felt 'normal' again and was able to do a lot of tasks. All that changed on Sunday when I spent 5 hours in a dark room with extreme fatigue and nausea... It's like a Russian roulette every day! Hope today is better 😇

@rosegoldivy congrats! Glad everything is okay.

@Daffodil21 good luck today x

Wow @rosegoldivy amazing news how exciting 💕

I am currently off work I just can't face it feeling so unwell all the time and now have a cold, feeling bloody rotten! Now starting to freak out about coronavirus my neighbour has it and it feels so close to home now really trying to stay in house as much as possible, mind is playing games! Xx

Just had my scan. There's no heartbeat.

I wish you all the very best xxx

So sorry daffodil. Take care of yourself xx
