Page 37 | Due December 2023

I haven't seen one of these yet for December so thought I'd start one! I'm due 1st December with hopefully a little rainbow. I'm on cyclogest because I had 2 losses in the latter end of last year (October and december) at 6 weeks and 10 weeks. Fingers crossed for lots of December babies!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I’ve had some cramping today, feels like AF is on the way. Not specific to one side and not sore just noticeable if that makes sense. I’m 5+2 anyone else experienced this? X

Rainbowdust557 · 19/04/2023 22:31

@99SR Yes, I did, its quite disconcerting isn't it! It's relieved a bit at 6 weeks, feels more stretchy but odd pains here and there. @smldnlove Oh yes, so bloated, I feel like I look the same as when I was 6 months gone! 🙈

Charlielechat · 19/04/2023 22:41

@Buttons86 wow that was very quick! I'm going to try hold off til I'm 6 weeks I think.
@smldnlove I don't have any bloating yet, just sore boobs and the odd pelvic twinge, and having to pee more during the day!
When did everyone start getting other symptoms?

Hi! @YorkshireWoldsMama im just behind you and 5 weeks tomorrow. Also no symptoms at all apart from some minor cramping but nothing I wouldn’t expect from early AF symptoms. Congratulations! Have you done anything/booked anything in etc since finding out? 💕

Thank you and congratulations to you too!

I find the lack of symptoms kind of worrying but I can't remember how early my morning sickness came in my last pregnancy. I need to keep reminding myself it is normal at this stage.

I've booked a scan for two weekends time. I should be just shy of 8 weeks then. I've also done my self referral.

How about you? Booked anything yet?

smldnlove · 19/04/2023 23:10

@Rainbowdust557 yes same! Ha! I used to get bloating around AF but this is just constant at the moment. Hoping it goes soon…did yours go away last time round?

@Charlielechat Yes with you on the pelvic twinges, just had some very sharp ones on my right hand side. Surprised by the complete lack of symptoms other than bloating really.

smldnlove · 19/04/2023 23:13

@YorkshireWoldsMama agreed, have really worried myself today. Have just made OH drive me to Tesco to get another clearblue as convinced myself somethings wrong. Was the same as before as were the other tests I did this evening 🙈Really hope for some certainty soon. I’m going to call my GP tomorrow and book in either a 6 or 7 week scan xx

OnNaturesCourse · 19/04/2023 23:26

Anyone else getting more nauseated and sick at night than in the morning?

I get indigestion at night too and it all sort of kicks each other off. 😭

wannabemum38 · 19/04/2023 23:44

@OnNaturesCourse yes my nausea is way worse at night although was bad this afternoon too. But yes night time is horrible

OnNaturesCourse · 19/04/2023 23:57

@wannabemum38 it's horrible, isn't it? Seems to kick in right when I need my energy and focus the most (aka kids bedtime) and then I suffer all through "my" time when they are asleep.

HannahLouD · 20/04/2023 06:11

Hey girls,

Sorry for tmi but I've had not solids poos for the last 3 mornings now... Not really got much nausea at all, if any! I think the nausea is in my head because I want so badly to have symptoms. I just have this bad tummy. I don't think it can be a bug or anything as it's literally just the case for the first few hours after I wake up and no one else is ill... Normal? 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm about 6+4.

Also, I went to my GP at less than 5 weeks as I thought I was having another cp and they must have referred me... Naughty I think! Anyway, I have my booking appointment on Tuesday! I contacted them and said isn't it too early and they said no 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also got my scan date through but again I'll only be about 11+2/3! To be fair, I was only 11+3 with my daughter at the "12 week scan" as well. x

DaisyMay25 · 20/04/2023 06:41

@HannahLouD my bowel movements are the same, running to the toilet in the morning for them.
The nausea comes and goes but worse in the morning.
I'm burning up constantly too.
I need to stop knocker checking but I know I won't.

Did my second frer today, one top one was on Sunday and bottom today so four days in between, always nice to see them

@Smileyface32 it really does drag…try and distract yourself until then. I felt like I was wishing time away until could have it. I hope it goes well for you.

Congrats @rankin21 , agree that there is a real mix of feelings when have had a loss but keeping everything crossed for you.

Thanks @Buttons86 everything crossed for you too! Such a crazy time the first couple of months isn't it 😂

Mummy1502 · 20/04/2023 07:20

Lots to catch up on here!

@smldnlove yes I’m very bloated too and looking pregnant 😂 x

@99SR ive had that cramping too on and off worries me everytime! X

@OnNaturesCourse i find I’m more nauseous in the evenings too x

@DaisyMay25 great line progression x

I think I may have just got my dye stealer or at least the start of a dye stealer! (Top one yesterday, bottom about 10 mins ago) x

DaisyMay25 · 20/04/2023 07:22

@Mummy1502 love to see a dye stealer! I'm
Just getting through my cheapies now but I don't think they're as reliable.
I'm happy with the frer so I'll stop with them and just use a cheapie in a week if I can stop myself to then

Mummy1502 · 20/04/2023 07:25

@DaisyMay25 yea I’m gonna stop testing now and do a digi next week hoping for my 3+, currently 4+5 so will try hold out until at least 5+3 to do a digi x

Your scan should be between 11 and 13 weeks (ish) so don't worry that it's a little early, it's absolutely fine! If anything, think how lucky you are that you don't have to wait until 13 weeks!

DaisyMay25 · 20/04/2023 08:10

@Pitstop1986 annoyingly the cut off (if you're waiting NT) is 14+1! Seems so late though doesn't it?!

NoodleQueen90 · 20/04/2023 08:13

@HannahLouD my booking appointment isn't until 9+6 and THEN they'll book the scan appointment.
I'm only 6 weeks today so it seems like forever away 😂 I've never known time to pass so slowly in my life, I've only known a week and a half and it feels like months!

allthingspinkx · 20/04/2023 08:30

@DaisyMay25 I'm 4 weeks on Saturday so super early!! I'll have a look later and see what I can find online.

@smldnlove My friend who's expecting said she contacted the GP at 6 weeks so might do the same, think I'll definitely book a private scan as soon as possible though, need some reassurance that this is definitely happening, still can't believe it lol x

I'm already so bloated and so gassy it's ridiculous 🤦🏼‍♀️

OnNaturesCourse · 20/04/2023 09:13

When is it you need to tell/book in with your midwife team?

With my others I've always been quite quick at telling them (think before 4 weeks lol)

I guess I'm already on some sort of system considering I've been at the EPU and hospital.

Wineisgreat · 20/04/2023 09:34

Hi all, I'm 7 weeks today. Anyone else think it's the strangest thing that you're feeling really sick but know that the only thing that will make you feel better is to eat something?!

Omg I'm feeling exactly the same at 5.5weeks!!
Feel awful and literally force myself to eat but makes me feel so much better afterwards.

I honestly think at the moment my sickness is coming in when I'm starting to get hungry.

Pregnancy hormones are crazyyy😂

OnNaturesCourse · 20/04/2023 09:40

Is this a "dye stealer"?

I ovulated extremely late first month off the pill, I self referred last week and have a scan date for 11 may, I will not be more that 11 weeks then but nhs guidel say the 12 week scan can be from 10 weeks so hope that I'm ok then.
