Morning everyone

4+4 today and I've woke up today feeling like I've been hit my a bus. Almost feels like a have a hangover.

Anyone else felt like this so early on?

kirstylou44 · 16/01/2021 09:59

Hi how do I join?

2021mumma · 16/01/2021 10:02

@Hopefulmummie yes I’ve felt hungover/nauseous feels like since I found out I’m 6 weeks now, taking antisickness tablets and still not improving

Positive though I had an early scan this morning and saw the baby and flickering heart it was very reassuring and was so glad to know just the one in there!

lockdownbabyx · 16/01/2021 10:04

Morning all! Got my BFP yesterday, I'm 4+3 today ☺️. Previously had an MC and PUL so third time lucky.
I was spotting for 2 days before AF was due but that seems to have stopped, still can't help but worry though.

Hopefulmummie · 16/01/2021 10:11

@2021mumma I never felt this bad early on in my previous pregnancy so maybe this is a good sign.
Amazing that you had a positive scan :) I can't decide whether to have 1 at 6 weeks or wait until 8

@lockdownbabyx congratulations :) this is also my third pregnancy since June. Had an ectopic then a miscarriage. I've fell pregnant straight after the miscarriage. I'm just trying to stay positive and take each day as it comes x

2021mumma · 16/01/2021 10:26

@Hopefulmummie same previous pregnancies I usually start being sick around 8/10 weeks this is awful. Hope you feel better soon.

lockdownbabyx · 16/01/2021 10:27

@Hopefulmummie aw I'm sorry for your losses, it's so hard to remain positive isn't it? Have you had many symptoms? My boobs are very sore, constantly hungry but also keep getting headaches which I don't usually get. Not sure if that's a symptom or not ? 🤷🏻‍♀️ xx

Darklava09 · 16/01/2021 10:32

@wrensandrobins you can take fybogel. They are about £3 and I used them
Last week and they worked well! Don’t take before bed though haha 😂

Hopefulmummie · 16/01/2021 10:35

@lockdownbabyx yeah my boobs became really sore yesterday and worse today. I've woke up this morning feeling rotten. But no proper nausea yet. I suppose it's still early.
I think headaches are a symptom x

MushroomQueen · 16/01/2021 11:53

Hello all got my bfp this morning at 11/12dpo. I thought I was yesterday as metallic taste appeared strongly yesterday and today. This is my 3rd dc. I have 2ds (6 almost 7 and 4 year old)

FTEngineerM · 16/01/2021 12:10

@kirstylou44 congrats, I’m assuming you’ve got a BFP?🎉🥳

@wrensandrobins not this time, but last time I did, the whole way through too. Well not whilst I had my tomato craving but all other times I was constipated. Walks helped me, and eating lots of veg.

Reassuring to see heartbeats so soon ❤️❤️ I cannot wait for that moment. Still sick, does the medication for nausea help if you’re not actually being sick?

FTEngineerM · 16/01/2021 12:11

@MushroomQueen congrats 🥳 full house.

Lozza85 · 16/01/2021 12:48

Got my letter for my first midwife appointment, 12th Feb so I'll be 9 weeks. Feels like still a long time to wait!

I'm 5+1 now, 1 week since my positive test and it's dragged...Still have tender boobs and had a migraine on Thursday 😫 but otherwise feel ok. Have to keep reminding myself that it's ok not to have lots of symptoms at this stage.

Congratulations to all the new BFPs, hope everyone is doing OK x

MushroomQueen · 16/01/2021 16:00

@Hopefulmummie yes, normal I'm afraid hence why I was late taking my kids to school I just couldn't get up

lilyj13 · 16/01/2021 16:38

Does anyone shake, strange but I'm constantly shaking, I'm not sure what it is. I'm not cold or anything

Scotti84 · 16/01/2021 17:14

@lilyj13 yep I’m shaking a bit, not all the time but when I pour water from a bottle or something my hand shakes. I somehow stupidly never expected all of these weird things, I’d always assumed aside from morning sickness I’d feel the same, as energetic as ever... how wrong was I 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

lilyj13 · 16/01/2021 18:20

@Scotti84 oh this is my 3rd and believe me I suffered badly with all mine, this is my last and I was hoping for a nice pregnancy with a bit of a glow, I don't think in real life that happens.
My taste buds are horrible, my mouth is watery, I'm anxious at night and slightly nauseas sometimes I actually wake in the night with bad nausea.
I just need to get through 8 months and I'm done.

Kat1112025 · 16/01/2021 20:48

Hi everyone, mumsnet newbie here. I got a very faint positive two days ago and a “1-2 weeks” on a CB today at 12dpo, so a little bean due at the end of September Grin

Sadly I had a miscarriage at the end of November. I’m hoping for better luck this time, and a bit of support to talk through all the craziness of this first trimester while I’m keeping the pregnancy on the down-low IRL.

Congratulations everyone on their BFPs!

bumptobean · 16/01/2021 21:53

Anyone else super anxious? I’m waiting for my 12 week scan to see everything is ok but it’s still 7 weeks away! Ahhhh I just want to know if everything is ok. And I’ll be alone as my hospital still isn’t allowing partners 😭

bumptobean · 16/01/2021 21:55

Oh and anyone else have no symptoms yet? With my first I was sick all the way through but so far nothing.. not sure whether I should be worried or relieved! So far all I’ve had is aches around my hips 😬

Scotti84 · 16/01/2021 22:39

@lilyj13 I just feel so pathetic 😂 I’m not one to get ill and stuff, I power through most things but I just can’t find the energy, it’s like I’m running at 50%. I’m relieved I’m on furlough atm cos I don’t know how I’d cope with having to get up at 6am and working 8 hour days. I’m ranging from nausea to no appetite but craving all kinds of stuff, I can’t eat veg, can’t stomach it but am wanting fruit or fruity flavored things, stomach is twinging and tugging and at night my hips and tops of my legs ache and I’m sleeping 12 hours at night with a afternoon nap, I feel like a sloth! Does it stay like this the whole way? Or do the symptoms ease as things progress?

123deepbreath · 16/01/2021 22:43

We had a little heart beat today! I wanted to check everything was in the right place and looked viable before telling work as I've had to be taken off patient facing duties immediately so it's pretty obvious to everyone I work with why I'm in the offices! Everything looked good, single viable baby in there, sonographer reckons I'm just under six week measuring which looks hopeful!

lilyj13 · 16/01/2021 23:05

@Scotti84 are you on any medication for your nausea? sometimes that can doesn't help. How far gone are you?
Your body is changing loads and sometimes your body is playing catch up, I would take as much sleep as you can whilst you can. I've been having the moju ginger shots in the morning to boost me a little can help with nausea but it's never helped me when I've been extremely poorly but you try anything.
It's a big crap early stages of pregnancy you just have to try and do what your body wants. I'm still working but wish I wasn't.

MamaPheebz · 16/01/2021 23:16

Hi, just joining you all. I’m 5+1 with my second baby. This is my 4th pregnancy as I’ve sadly had 2 MC in the past 6 months. Very anxious and hoping for some good, strong pregnancy symptoms soon. I felt a little sick today but nothing compared to what I felt with my son. I’ve never wished to be sick before!

2021mumma · 17/01/2021 08:05

Morning everyone hope you are well! Can anyone please help me with medicine they are taking for sickness have been on cyclizine for a week now and it’s not helping the sickness, it’s making me so drowsy I basically slept all day and night yesterday not good when you have a toddler (my husband doing everything right now) I’m going to call the gp tomorrow but just wondering if anyone is taking or took anything different? I need to be fully focused for work and can’t continue on cyclizine. Many thanks I feel so desperate at the moment.
