Hi

Just wondered if anyone else is at 12 weeks and how they are feeling? And also what symptoms do you have ?
Got my dating scan Thursday and I'm pretty nervous!!

Hi! I’ll be 12 weeks this week. I’m feeling okay, just tired a lot and feel sick if I don’t eat every few hours. Also getting headaches which aren’t pleasant. My dating scan is this weekend, it’ll be the first one DH has been to so am looking forward to it.

I hope yours goes well on Thursday. It’s so exciting seeing baby Smile

Me! Also have my dating scan on Thursday, excited and anxious in equal measure. Symptoms wise I am incredibly tired, have about 6 good hours in the morning and by lunchtime i'm a zombie. Nauseous if I don't eat often enough, boobs a bit sore.
Does it feel like the last 8 weeks countdown to the scan have lasted 8 months to you too?! Nearly there now...

Dinosaurus86 · 10/05/2021 17:29

My scan is tomorrow and I'll be 12 weeks exactly (according to my dates). I'm terrified something will be wrong!

I don't have many symptoms now. Boobs still a bit sore, and some mild nausea and fatigue but much better than it was a couple of weeks ago.

4Minions2CallMyOwn · 10/05/2021 17:37

@Dinosaurus86 I’m scared something will go wrong also to be honest. We’ve had 2 miscarriages before this pregnancy, one in August and one in December. It’s so worrying but I’m just trying to stay positive.

Good luck for all of your scans everyone!!!

Jellybum2019 · 10/05/2021 18:15

12 weeks here too but NHS scan isn’t for another 2 and a half weeks as they have backlog so I am having private scan this week.

I agree with the tiredness! Few good hours in the morning then I struggle throughout the afternoon. Sore boobs and achey back!

Dinosaurus86 · 10/05/2021 18:38

I haven’t even had a miscarriage so far, so no specific reason to fear it, although had some bleeding earlier on. I’m sorry to hear about yours @4Minions2CallMyOwn. Both of my SILs have had them so I know it’s all too common.

That’s an awfully long wait @Jellybum2019 - I’d have a private one too! It must be a bad backlog. What area are you in? I’m in north London and was surprised to get the date through for 12 weeks on the dot. Can’t really focus on anything else today.

Needingsupportplease · 10/05/2021 18:43

Not quite 12 weeks, 11+1 but I'd like to join my scan is next Tuesday. 3 previous losses and one dd had 2 scans in this pregnancy so far due to loosing a twin and past losses.. nervous as hell and going to scan alone as dh has to work and my mum is having my daughter and I dont have anybody else. Hope everybodys scans go well! 🤞

NS1988 · 10/05/2021 18:55

I had my scan last week thought I was 12w5days turns out I’m 13w2days. Was so worried about the scan after a mmc last year but all was fine was a massive weight off my shoulders but completely understand how you are feeling. Feeling super tired and still get nauseous feeling a lot, I had quite bad morning sickness since about 6/7 weeks pretty much every day but starting to feel slightly better

Emmab321 · 10/05/2021 19:01

Mee ! 12:1 today and I also have my scan on Thursday :)

The only symptom I have really is nausea in the morning and evening . I have to grab an early breakfast or I’m feeling sick all day . Some evenings I can’t eat at all !!

Mariex1989 · 10/05/2021 19:25

12w today and my scan is next Monday.

I had really bad sickness until about a week ago and now just nausea, headaches and suuuuper tired ALL the time 🙈.

Good luck everyone with your scans xxx

Also what cream etc is everyone using on their tummy's ?

OP posts:
Kimblebee19 · 11/05/2021 14:40

Bio Oil, although only put it on once or twice so far! Collapse into bed after a shower in the evening and havent had the energy for the whole routine! Used that and some Berts Bees Mama cream stuff last time and got away mostly unscathed with stretchmarks (just some on my thighs which didnt survive getting hips in puberty either) - probably just luck and a fairly small (6lb 13oz) and on time (40+1) baby.... but will be doing the same this time just in case!

gemgem31 · 11/05/2021 16:02

I need to get some of that really I have only been using that palmers cocoa butter for stretch marks. I am the opposite though I remember to apply in the evenings after a bath but never in the morning 😫

12+2 here, scan tomorrow. I'm so excited/ nervous, counting down the hours.

I'm using Aveeno lotion on my (already scarily big) bump, it worked last time. Found the palmers a bit greasy.

Dinosaurus86 · 11/05/2021 17:21

Hi all, I just had my scan and it went well fortunately! Just waiting for blood results now!

Anyone else at 12 weeks
Honey1989 · 11/05/2021 18:09

Just at 13 weeks, so tired all the time, sickness is still lingering and I know this is TMI but the wind and constipation is so frustrating. Feel light pressure in lower abdomen. Not pain, just aware of it. Anyone else?

That's exactly how my lower abdomen feels at the moment I have been getting some really light cramps too but nothing major.

Glad some of you have had good scans and testing results. I'm 12 weeks now and my scan is on Tuesday. Just feel sick with anxiety about it with previous losses and mmc. Have no symptoms now either and am going to my scan alone so just hope baby is ok! Anyone else waiting for a scan??
