Finally managed to speak with my doctor regarding nausea, he's prescribed me promethazine teoclate. Has anyone taken this for sickness/nausea?

Thank you ladies💕
I’m okay, but you know how it is when your so hormonal and really trying not to cry when someone’s being a dick!
Glad you’re okay, ugh yes know exactly what you mean. Good for you for going to hr, hopefully they’ll be all over it as it opens them up to a legal minefield if that behaviour continues!!

I’m 11 weeks tomorrow, last 2 weeks nausea hasn’t been as bad. I thought I’d sussed that as long as I didn’t let myself get too hungry I was okay. Today it’s back with a vengeance.

Does anyone else feel like they look really pregnant already? I'm 8w4d and i honestly feel I look about 6 months pregnant! It's my second but surely a bump doesn't come this early and it must all be bloat somehow even though it feels hard 🤔

@SmartiesParty it's permanent! Unless I'm just bloated all day every day I think it might be here to stay 😅

@Mummapenguin20 yes exactly the same as me! I went into the office yesterday (normally work from home) and I swear people were looking at my stomach 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Golaz 🤣🤣 I wasn’t sure but I did think 63mm was big…. It is isn’t it??? 😳😳😳

sherbertlemon17 · 08/08/2023 21:21

@Sunshineclouds11 I felt both of mine move at 16 weeks which I think is quite early.

I can’t wait for those first movements. For me they feel a bit like little pops or a little spider tickling your insides 😅

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 21:27

sorry to interrupt any ongoing discussions ladies but if I can just ask or get any advice... sorry for tmi in advanced but, I haven't been able to poop for nearly 4 days now (never experience this any other of my pregnancies) I'm getting the feeling to go but for some reason just don't seem to be any bowel moments whatsoever no matter how hard I push 🤦‍♀️ obviously I'm trying not to strain too much as don't want to cause any damage to my insides 😂 but FML it's easier in my experience to push a baby out than it is too try do a 💩!! Seems like I'm suffering from constipation any ladies suffered with this in their pregnancies or are going through it currently? Should I ring my gp in morning? What can help get things going like? Appreciate any replies, thanks x

@MummyTo4BoysXXXX
Ive been having some trouble with this too ever since being put on iron tablets a few weeks ago, its so horrible.
I went to the pharmacy and got Lactulose which definitely helps!

User0224 · 08/08/2023 21:38

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 21:27

Does it feel like it might be too hard to push out? If so, dulcoease is great at softening things, and pretty quick to work x

Original poster

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 21:38

@LalalaBubs thanks for that 😊 worse thing is not on any iron tablets to be causing it so must be hormones! Is this a first experience for you too compared to your other pregnancies? x

OP posts:

LalalaBubs · 08/08/2023 21:40

@MummyTo4BoysXXXX no unfortunately my iron levels are always non existent during my pregnancies so I'm used to this😭
I hope you can speak to someone soon and get some relief!

User0224 · 08/08/2023 21:40

Sunshineclouds11 · 08/08/2023 20:46

Anyone who's on their second or more baby, when did you first feel them move?

I felt movement around 17 weeks. But I had an anterior placenta which meant it was right in the way of me being able to feel baby on the front of my bump. So I wasn’t able to feel early flutters or anything, just one massive unmistakable kick one day

Original poster

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 21:42

@User0224 see the thing is it's not that, once I get that cramp feeling in my tummy, so i go to toilet but then it's like my bowel just doesn't seem to be making any movements along side me pushing too? If that makes any sense! 🤣 it's strange tbf but when I do push getting this strange feeling in bottom of my tummy like groin area? :/ which makes me feel quite uncomfortable so I have to stop, but defiantly haven't been able to do one for nearly 4 days and its not like me at all I'm normally like once a day sort of thing 🤦‍♀️🤣 x

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 21:43

@LalalaBubs aww bless you but atleast your iron levels will be sorted and at a good level for when you give birth as that's quite important! Just a shame on the side affects of the tablets isn't it :/ well thankyou hun anyway defiantly going to ring gp tomorrow anyways see what they say x

OP posts:

anony1111 · 08/08/2023 21:59

@MummyTo4BoysXXXX I know the struggle 😫 currently having the same issues! Also happened in my first pregnancy too! When I spoke to my midwife last time she just advised the usual prunes/prune juice 🤢 and upping my fibre intake but that's hard work when you feel nauseous all the time!
I struggled all the way through my first pregnancy with it but I don't have the best bowel movements when I'm not pregnant either 🙈🤣

Original poster

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 08/08/2023 23:54

@anony1111 just out of curiosity what was your first pregnancy, a boy or a girl? and where will i be able to buy prune juice from?

OP posts:

Mangotango39 · 09/08/2023 01:11

No bowel issues for me but I'm having 3 dates in a smoothie each morning and I really think that's what helps personally xx

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 09/08/2023 06:15

Hot lemon water, kiwi fruit, dates and walnuts have helped over here with constipation

amyg1985 · 09/08/2023 07:11

Another vote for lactulose - you can buy it over the counter. I do 15ml morning and evening. Hope you get some relief soon. Mine was so bad I was vomiting and it's so uncomfortable.

mumtotwox · 09/08/2023 07:21

I got given Lactulose after the birth of my second son and it was amazing! The only thing is when you need to go, you have to GO 😆

MummyTo4BoysXXXX · 09/08/2023 10:48

Right ladies well my midwife has recommended for me to buy something called Laxido? Any of you ladies took this before and was it affective?

OP posts:

Meeting · 09/08/2023 10:57

I was prescribed lactulose for my constipation. I'm still only going every 3 (or so) days, but it's easier and less painful when I do go x

Sunshineclouds11 · 09/08/2023 12:34

Leaving for my scan shortly! I feel sick🤞🏽🤞🏽

Wishing you all the best @Sunshineclouds11 - hope to see a lovely scan photo soon

Kelb79 · 09/08/2023 13:11

12 weeks and feeling awful still!!!
I thought I was ok this morning but nearly fainted while making breakfast then had to leg it the toilet to throw up… have been flat out on the sofa ever since completely shattered with a headache!
will it ever end??!! 😩😩 I’m getting sick of hearing myself complain and being so miserable and I know OH is too 😵‍💫😵‍💫

Hawk90 · 09/08/2023 13:23

Ladies, after all that everything is a ok. Had scan, they said its 99% a girl too :) Due 15th Feb xxxx How is everyone feeling?

@Hawk90 congratulations on your scan 😊 did you have an early gender scan?.. do you mind sharing a scan photo of your little girl 😊

OP posts:

Clomid1 · 09/08/2023 14:47

@User0224 awww thank you! I’ve just got her into some very bad habits and its fine when you just have the one baby but the habits are so bad if I have her and a new born.

she still breastfeeds and she’s doing it for comfort I have no idea how to stop.
she co-sleeps this was due to her waking up in the nights a lot after I took her pacifier away at 10 months. She now likes to help herself to my boob whilst I sleep 😅

If I can get the breastfeeding and cosleeping to stop I’d be the happiest person ever. Any tips?

CrazyRosa · 09/08/2023 15:02

@Clomid1 I'm also breastfeeding my 16 month old and no clue how to stop. She eats plenty during the day and I'm down to just the morning and bedtime feeds. But I'm stuck with how to get rid of those feeds. We're moving house in the next 4 weeks so I don't know whether to do it now or wait.
