@Srx1

No problem @moomoose . Good luck!🍀 I know how you feel and I hope everything will be ok. 🤞🏻 Try to relax, although I know it is easier said than done.

My 8week scan was great although I was dreading it bcs of what happened before. I worry a lot in general. It kept me calm for some time but now I am again scared as my nausea stopped last week at 10weeks however I still have some breast soreness. And I need to wait for almost 3 weeks for my scan so not sure how will I stay sane until then.

Hi, just to jump on as I was exactly the same. Nausea, fatigue and boobs all seemed to disappear at 10weeks but had 12 weeks scan today and I have a little wriggler so it doesn't have to be a bad sign. :)

Hi @disneygirl87 thank you soo much for replying, I have no one to talk to as we haven’t told anyone yet so just going crazy these days.. I’m so glad it was all good on your scan! How long did your nausea last for? Mine started just before 6w and stopped just at the start of 10w. I haven’t been super tired at all. Boobs kinda hurt at night although last night almost nothing and then today i think again a bit sore to touch or if I hug etc. Those 2 have been the most obvious main symptoms. How about yours? And they all stopped 10weeks? Did you feel pregnant then at all? Did you have any sensations/twinges in your abdomen? Thank you!

I was very nauseous almost all day from about 7 weeks until 10 weeks on the dot then they tapered off. I still get the odd nausea in the evening but I think that might be all the supplements as it's usually after dinner when I've taken them. I worried like you that something was wrong. I had private scans at 8 and 10 due to anxiety from previous MMC so worried even more when the symptoms disappeared. Other than the odd twinge now which I believe are growing pains, I wouldn't generally know I'm pregnant now. This brings both happiness I'm feeling ok and fear that something is wrong but just taking each step as it comes!

I hope everyone is keeping well, I am sorry to hear some of you are still experiencing bleeding. 🙁

I can't actually believe my GP said he is not allowed to prescribe cyclogest pessaries, he will get in trouble if he did, I should obtain private prescription because I had private fertility treatment 🙄 I phoned EPU who wrote an email to GP stating to prescribe progesterone, I hope he will now, waiting for a phone call today..

mrshodgy21 · 21/04/2022 07:58

Hey sorry I've not been on my dad passed away last sat then the silly app weren't working I hope everything is well x

speake1 · 21/04/2022 08:00

@aesgriff amazing news that your dating scan went well & baby is measuring ahead 🥰 congratulations xxx

Cruz86 · 21/04/2022 08:10

Argh my app hasn't been working. Just writing this after uninstalling/reinstalling in the hope that it works 🤞🏻

And it does 😅 time to catch up!

Sunday really isn't too long away now @Skl2021. Are you finding out the sex? Can't wait to hear!!

@Tulip1112 sorry you had a bad day. I don't have any experience because I only had a little bit of light bleeding right at the beginning, but I'm shocked at how many ladies in this thread have had to deal with consistent bleeding through the first trimester and beyond. And everything has been okay! I can't help but feel like this is a lucky thread 🌈

Unfortunately I only managed to get an early scan because I'd had some bleeding @moomoose, I don't think they're very forthcoming with offering extra support! But worth a try I'd say.

@Srx1 my boobs stopped feeling sore at around 9.5/10 weeks and my nausea has eased off from about 11. At my 9+3 scan, the midwife specifically told me not to panic about loss of symptoms - easier said than done though isn't it!!

@aesgriff I feel okay thank you! I've managed to eat so much in the last few days which has been bliss. Weird, but I also had 💩 yesterday nothing too! So glad your dating scan went well. How far along are you now? Frustrating that there actually is a pocket of blood, could've saved you a little bit of anxiety if you knew that already! Great that your swab came back okay too. I'll ring next week and see if they have mine yet!

For those with protruding bellies, is it still rounded when you lay down? There's no denying mine when I'm standing up, but laying on my back it just disappears 😂

@flowergarden16 good luck for tomorrow 🌈 Is there anything in particular that makes you feel like you've lost baby? Or is it your mind trying to protect yourself before your scan? ❤️

Sorry to hear about your Dad @mrshodgy21. I hope you're okay 😞❤️

And I'm done 😆

Xx

@Cruz86 no I feel sick today and sore boobs etc still. Just I felt like this before and baby had stopped growing. Least I can say it's tomorrow now! Thanks lovely xx

sunnyd67 · 21/04/2022 08:37

@mrshodgy21 I'm sorry to hear your sad news, take care of yourself.

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 08:42

@mrshodgy21 so sorry to hear that look after yourself ❤️ x
@Cruz86 this new Mumsnet is terrible I hate it. Everything looks the same on my phone and all the commentsk

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 08:43

@Cruz86 and now it sends without my pressing send 🤦🤦 yes I will be finding out if baby plays ball! Last scan was hard work so we will see. Praying everything is ok I'm really anxious and scared. So jealous everyone has a bump and mine is just podgy 🙈 xx

flowergarden16 · 21/04/2022 08:49

@Srx1 your hcg levels peak around 10 weeks which is why some people feel better and symptoms reduce after that. Nothing to worry about x

flowergarden16 · 21/04/2022 08:49

Sorry to hear that @mrshodgy21

calimc83 · 21/04/2022 09:58

I'm back 🙈 is it just me or has mumsnet gone all weird?! Hope everyone is ok..had to take today as flexi as my youngest is poorly! Last night was a nightmare ( trust DH to be away as well! ) feel like I need to do something productive today but cba 😆 xx

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 10:13

@calimc83 it's terrible isn't it 🤦 hope your little one is feeling better soon ❤️ sounds like u had a hard night! Take it easy and relax today 🙌 😊 x

calimc83 · 21/04/2022 10:18

@Skl2021 hopefully calpol and paw patrol on repeat will help! When's your scan lovely? X

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 10:21

@calimc83 I'm sure that will do the trick 🙊 it's on Sunday 😬 I'm petrified 😣 xx

arianasky · 21/04/2022 10:22

Sorry I haven't posted in a while mumsnet wouldn't let me 😂 I had to reinstate the app, how is everyone? 9 weeks today and my baby passed at 9 weeks in October so I'm a little nervous I'm clinging onto every symptom at the moment 🙏🏻🌈

@mrshodgy21 I'm so so sorry ❤️

Annny27 · 21/04/2022 10:42

@arianasky we lost ours at 6 weeks but didn't leave my body (mmc) untill 11+5 so both of those days for me were filled with major anxiety. Realistically it's just a day! But the fact it was same gestation really made me worried. Hopefully the day passes by and tomorrow you can officially be the furthest along!!

flowergarden16 · 21/04/2022 10:46

@Skl2021 how many weeks will you be? Mine is tomorrow and also terrified

@arianasky I feel the same. Mine was lost between 6-8 weeks and I'm now 8+4 so tomorrow feels just awful

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 10:51

@arianasky it's so hard when you get to the point of your last loss ❤️ try and keep busy and positive 🌈 x
@flowergarden16 I will be nearly 17 weeks when I have my scan. I thought it would get easier but it hasn't. Scanxiety is real 🤦 keeping positive for us both 🤞❤️ xx

flowergarden16 · 21/04/2022 10:52

@Skl2021 I totally understand: I think we'll all be like this the whole way through. Hope it gets easier once you start feeling some movement soon x

Skl2021 · 21/04/2022 10:57

@flowergarden16 that's what I'm waiting for just a bit of reasurance just feel in limbo. Big build up to 12 week scan and then nothing and all your symptoms stop which worries you. That's why I booked this scan as the wait until 20 weeks was killing me. Just want to know everything is ok 🤞 hope your scan goes well tomorrow 💕 xx

flowergarden16 · 21/04/2022 10:57

I am defo going to book a scan or two between 12-20 if I get that far: the only way.

It's totally understandable x
