I am not quite ready to join the October group yet . I found out I was pregnant at 10dpo and confirmed with a frer 11dpo and 12dpo. No symptoms so far bar feeling really tired. Anyone else want to join me ? This is my first pregnancy so hoping all goes smoothly ❤

@lockdownbabyx so glad the scan went well! & to hear the heart beat is amazing 🤍
2 weeks on Saturday I’ve got mine, I just can’t wait!

@1992EM so glad to hear the spotting has stopped. It’s so nerve wrecking these first weeks but I’ve read so much where people say it’s all normal

@lockdownbabyx I'm glad the scan went well!
Mine did too, dates are spot on thank goodness, so I feel I've got over another hurdle. Got a 9 week scan in two weeks and then I'll be discharged from the clinic, so I think I'll self refer to my hospital now.

@1992EM I'm glad the spotting has stopped, everything is so worrying at this stage, but I'm sure it'll be fine. Hope you've been able to focus at work!

1992EM · 11/03/2021 19:41

@nw2021 and @Gabby1234 thank you. I am hoping that it was a one off and all is ok on Monday . Nothing like making ourselves feel more anxious 🙈 x

@1992EM you didn't over react at all, it's totally normal and we all do it. I think the problem is, we are so aware of what can go wrong in the early weeks and how common it is. I'd love to be one of those people who have no worries and get excited from the get go! Will never be the case with me though, il worry throughout this pregnancy I know it 😂

@NW2021 thank you, it was amazing to see it. Il still worry though 😂. How exciting for you, how are you feeling now symptoms wise?

@Gabby1234 thank you! Yes I feel the same, like I've got over one hurdle. I'm surprised they have already discharged me, considering my history and I have no other scans booked 🤷🏻‍♀️. Il probably book a private one in a few weeks though xx

1992EM · 11/03/2021 20:15

@lockdownbabyx Thank you, Iam always a worrier anyway so will worry throughout 🙈🤣

@1992EM good job you're not alone, we're all worriers in here by the sounds of things haha.

Is anyone else unbelievably hungry? Im nauseous on and off anyway, but it's worse when I'm hungry. Il have a full meal (like I did an hour ago) and now I'm hungry again! But I don't feel like eating if that makes sense? I just want to get rid of the hunger pain 😂. I've never had this before. A few days ago I had no appetite at all lol x

1992EM · 11/03/2021 21:02

@lockdownbabyx Yes , although the sight and smell of food makes me gag so it is really hard to actually eat or cook . I feel better once I have ate though so it a catch 22 🤣.

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 11/03/2021 21:04

@1992EM yes that's the problem isn't it! I'm not actually enjoying food, just eating because I have to lol

1992EM · 11/03/2021 21:12

@lockdownbabyx yes. Me too. I make sure to have all my fruit and veg at lunch as this is when I feel best and then just have what I can at night x

NW2021 · 12/03/2021 08:19

@Gabby1234 glad the scan went well lovely 🤍

@lockdownbabyx it’s so natural to worry! I’m trying my hardest not to, trying to not stress but i think it all comes with pregnancy, especially if you’ve had difficult times before 🤍

This week the nausea has just hit me so hard, yesterday I felt a bit better but the last week I’ve just felt so sick! I’ve not eaten great just white stoggy foods are the only thing that seem to work to stop the feeling.
I really need to increase my fruit & veg in take I just have no desire to eat food 😂

Is anyone still exercising at all? I had such a good work out plan before I fell pregnant but this 1st trimester I’ve had no energy to do anything.

1992EM · 12/03/2021 09:50

@NW2021 I feel better around lunch so tend to eat fruit and veg then. I have a smoothie with my breakfast and this way I get my 5 a day . Dinner I feel awful and tend to have unhealthy stuff or convenient stuff as the smell of cooking makes it worse. I was using the treadmill but when I had spotting I stopped and haven't since Wednesday. Once I get a scan and if it is all ok and they ok it , I will start again. It has definitely got harder to be motivated or do a long workout x

@1992EM good luck with your scan today! Really hope all is well. Please let us know how you get on ☺️ xx

1992EM · 15/03/2021 15:01

@lockdownbabyx thank you ❤ all went well and baby's heartbeat is strong and measuring at 7 and a half weeks which is exactly where I thought I would be. So nice to see all is ok x

lockdownbabyx · 15/03/2021 15:04

@1992EM Yes! I'm so happy for you! It's a relief to see isn't it 🥰. Did they give you a little photo? Xx

1992EM · 15/03/2021 15:21

@lockdownbabyx It was lovely and so glad I have that reassurance. Yeah I got one photo and they kept two in my file . Looks so small ❤

@1992EM So happy for you ❤️ x

1992EM · 15/03/2021 21:01

@lockdownbabyx thank you ❤ hopefully we both have a smooth pregnancy from now on 🎉

lockdownbabyx · 15/03/2021 21:04

@1992EM oh I really hope so too 🤞🏼. How's your nausea? Mine seems to have disappeared lol. I still haven't got much of an appetite though and my boobs are really sore still so I'm not worried. Just odd as I only had it for a few days! Xx

1992EM · 15/03/2021 21:14

@lockdownbabyx it has been awful since yesterday. Now being sick in the morning but can't actually be sick as I can't really eat at night. I am hoping it eases up soon. I have 12 working days left until I get 2 weeks off and it can not come quick enough . I really wish I was working at home 🙈 . I have heard symptoms come and go so wouldn't worry about them. I know someone who has no symptoms and is 16 weeks pregnant x

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 15/03/2021 22:06

Aw bless you @1992EM I hope it eases for you soon, must be exhausting! Yeah I'm not worried at the moment, il just enjoy it while I can I suppose haha. I have booked a private scan for the 3rd April, I can't wait until 12 weeks 😂 so that's something to look forward to xx

1992EM · 16/03/2021 16:57

@lockdownbabyx mine is definitely better during the day but hit 4pm i feel awful. I do think working plays a big part though as I am exhausted by that point too. Hopefully eases up soon. I can't wait for the 12 week scan. 5 weeks to go 🤣

lockdownbabyx · 24/03/2021 11:13

@1992EM @NW2021 @Gabby1234 how are we all? Don't know about you guys but I'm getting very bored and impatient waiting for my next scan haha. Xx

NW2021 · 24/03/2021 12:07

@lockdownbabyx Hey! I’m doing ok, how are you ladies? Got a private scan booked on Saturday I’ll be 9 weeks. I was doing so well but I’m so anxious this week leading up to it!

Waiting for my letter to arrive for my 12 week. I’ve had to refer to the hospital I want so just waiting on that decision.
Thankfully I’m feeling much better! Nausea has subsided a lot! Just feeling knackered still.

lockdownbabyx · 24/03/2021 14:00

@NW2021 ooh exciting! Please keep us updated! I have one Saturday next week when il be 9+6 so curious to see what a 9 week scan looks like haha. Yes I've also had to refer myself to a new hospital and am waiting for a letter. Also have my first midwife call on Tuesday which I'm excited about, never got that far before ☺️. Glad you are feeling better! I'm fine during the day, it's the evenings when nausea hits me but I'm grateful for it in a weird way. Xx
