@Derv1 I'm so sorry

Sorry, struggling to keep up with this thread. I'm still getting nosebleeds. I'll bring it up with my midwife I think. I have my scan date now for the 21st April and decided to tell parents today mainly because we'll need childcare.

Needtobuildabridge · 23/03/2023 19:58

I've waited to post this until Derv said she'd left. It must be absolutely heartbreaking for her.

12 weeks on the dot. Everything looking good 5th October is DD!

@Needtobuildabridge what a perfect scan picture and a perfect little baby🥰

LaVitesse2022 · 23/03/2023 20:07

@Needtobuildabridge what a brilliant scan! 🙌 You must be over the moon!

I'm still waiting for my scan date (I'm 10+4). Midwife at booking appt on Sunday said I'd receive over the post. Is anyone else who's had their booking appt still waiting to hear about 12 week scan?

Summer022 · 23/03/2023 20:15

Just received 12 Week scan letter in the post today. 11th of April and I’ll be 12+4. So excited and so nervous for it. I haven’t had a private scan and so I am really desperate to see little bubba. Just hoping they are in there and all is ok. 🤞 x

OrionNebula · 23/03/2023 20:17

Congrats @Needtobuildabridge! Lovely pic.

I am 13 weeks on Sunday and have my first scan on public system on Monday. I'm in Ireland, not sure if anyone else on this thread is?

LWestYorks · 23/03/2023 20:38

@Needtobuildabridge perfect picture! My 12 week scan is 2 weeks today when I’ll be 13 weeks…counting down the days! X

katherine123x · 23/03/2023 20:41

Oh @Needtobuildabridge very thoughtful of you and a beautiful scan! Congratulations !!

Can't wait to see these 12 week photos flood in!!

SnookyPook · 23/03/2023 21:11

@Needtobuildabridge what a perfect scan pic! And really thoughtful of you to hold off sharing it - so sad going through losses with people on these groups isn't it. So glad all was looking good with your little one 🥰

TealDreams · 23/03/2023 21:11

@Needtobuildabridge such a lovely photo! Congrats!

Mine is tomorrow morning - I'm very scared !

VictoriaBlossom · 23/03/2023 21:23

@Needtobuildabridge I agree with @SnookyPook it's really respectful of waiting.
My heart goes out to her as I've been there, and it's probably brought home a bit of reality for a fair few of us.

Also, got on the scales cheeky 8lb weight gain from my pre pregnancy weight. Literally a pound a week. Christ I need to chill out on the McDonald's breakfast muffins. But they're the only thing I really really want to eat.

Gone from ok bmi to overweight in 8 weeks 😂

THISISIT23 · 23/03/2023 21:24

Just catching up with this thread! Congrats to everyone 😀😀 I have my
booking in midwife appointment a week Friday - feeling pretty rubbish at the minute but I’m on progesterone from the IVF keep reading this can cause the feeling rubbish and too top it off I’ve developed a few mouth ulcers anyone have any tips to help? Xx

katherine123x · 23/03/2023 21:32

Anyone not gained any weight ?? I normally eat a good big chocolate bar a day and haven't eaten it for 7 weeks!! I've eaten a lot some days and not a lot others and just think I haven't over eaten with bad stuff but I'm also concerned that I haven't 😂😂 why are we never happy!! Anyone else the same??

katherine123x · 23/03/2023 21:32

@THISISIT23 gargle salt water. Disgusting but works!

DmcinT · 23/03/2023 21:38

@Needtobuildabridge what w great pic 😍

@OrionNebula im from Ireland too, have my 12 week scan when I’m 13 weeks too, the wait is so hard.

PrimarilyParented · 23/03/2023 21:39

@katherine123x i have days of being hungry and days of barely eating, I’ve also snacked more on fruit than anything else (genuinely craving sour chewits but can’t find them anywhere so fruit is a second best sugar rush) so I don’t think I’ve really gained weight yet.

SnookyPook · 23/03/2023 21:43

@THISISIT23 a second vote for gargling salt water. You've also brought back a vague memory that I got a few more mouth ulcers in my first pregnancy 🤔

@katherine123x I'm not weighing myself tbh but I don't think I've put on loads. I've also gone off chocolate quite a bit, but I am eating a fair amount of carbs so 🤷🏼‍♀️ With my first pregnancy I was pretty much just 'me with a bump' the whole way through so hoping I'll be fairly similar again this time!

Lilacrose27 · 23/03/2023 22:20

@PrimarilyParented i was craving chewits and sour chewits the other week if you go on the website you can get them from there 😊 I got a selection box of chewits on there! Honestly was the best thing ever!

PrimarilyParented · 23/03/2023 22:27

@Lilacrose27 ohhh that is so tempting. Glad it’s not just me craving them.
