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.

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 apparently a more rounded forehead indicates girl and straight indicates boy - but there could be nothing in it at all.

Its difficult to tell from mine too as the photo was taken when they were 'mid swish'. Definitely can't see a nub either. I'm thinking boy based on what I can see on mine, husband has a very heavy/defined brow lol.

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 31/07/2023 15:39

@Strawberry06 oh really! Mine had a bit of a rounded forehead, so I'll let you know!

Hi lovely ladies! I had my 12 week scan today and dated 12+5 and my due date is Feb 7th so predicted corrected. Baby was bouncing around and I cried with joy. Here is the scan pic, anyone want to have a guess at the sex, feel free, my family think it’s a boy 🤷🏿‍♀️

Oh congratulations what a wonderful image! I also think definitely boy! X

amyg1985 · 31/07/2023 16:26

Congrats on the scan @Ebonythoughts and best wishes to those with scans tomorrow.

We got our Harmony test results back today (had the scan and blood test a week ago, so pretty good turnaround time). All very low risk. I didn't realise how much I was worried about it until I felt the relief when I opened the email!

sherbertlemon17 · 31/07/2023 16:37

Loving all the scan pictures 😍

@User0224 I’m due the 29th! Have gone from the first day of the month to last after my last scan 🙈 I’d actually love a leap year baby!

DmcinT · 31/07/2023 16:52

@Strawberry06 and @User0224 thanks, the dreams are mental and how vivid and real they are, terrified me. I’m glad appt is first thing in the morning so I’m not hanging around waiting🤞🏽

@Ebonythoughts congrats 🥰 will u find out the sex early or at birth? I wouldn’t have a clue looking at pics but I know some ppl swear by certain markers to tell.

Cheetocat · 31/07/2023 18:17

Does anyone have cats? How are we supposed to stop them from sleeping on baby when the time comes? 😅

Mummapenguin20 · 31/07/2023 18:19

I have a cat he didn’t even go near my son when I had him

PeeBeee · 31/07/2023 18:35

@Cheetocat we have 2 cats that use to sleep in our room but when I was about 6ish months pregnant with lg, we closed them out so they didnt associate being closed out of our bedroom with the baby coming so by the time I gave birth, they were use to not sleeping in there.

with day naps, we used the travel system and if needed to go into kitchen, would wheel the pram in with me as the cats were intrigued and one would defo have jumped in. Shes 15 months now and they run away from her😅 they still arent allowed in our room or hers but have sleeping places in our spare room and go everywhere else x

amyg1985 · 31/07/2023 18:36

@Cheetocat - I'm pleased you asked! I've been wondering the same thing. We have 2 indoor cats and they are very nosy and want to be involved in everything.

I'm told that babies are too unpredictable for cats so they keep their distance. Any stories/tips from anyone who has experience would be welcome though!

Ebonythoughts · 31/07/2023 18:50

Thank you all. ❤️

@Strawberry06 @User0224 my family all guessed big but I have no idea what they’re basing it on 🤷🏿‍♀️

@DmcinT thank you, I think we’ll find out at the 20 week scan if we can.

CrazyRosa · 31/07/2023 19:17

@Cheetocat I have 2 cats and a 15 month old. They didn't spend anytime in the same room as my daughter until very recently, they just ran away from her. It was almost like they didn't notice her, they sniffed her once and then no interest. Then she got louder and started crawling etc so they ran away from her. She can run after them now so one is loving the extra attention, the other still runs away from her. They're very good with her, the braver cat is very patient and we've taught her to pat him gently etc.

@PeeBeee I feel like we've so much in common, cats and a 15 month old and prgenant!🤣

PeeBeee · 31/07/2023 19:34

@CrazyRosa are you in an April 22 fb group by any chance?! Lol

CrazyRosa · 31/07/2023 19:39

@PeeBeee I am indeed! It was a group set up from here, haven't joined this Feb 24 facebook group yet as I don't know where the link is😄

PeeBeee · 31/07/2023 19:41

Ahh no wayy!! So nice to have someone from previous group cuz it was a godsend as a ftm!! Hopefully see you in there soon :) ohhh I will see if i can get a link - its not very active yet but sure that will change as well all get into the 2nd trimester :)

PeeBeee · 31/07/2023 19:42

@CrazyRosa does the above work? X

CrazyRosa · 31/07/2023 19:46

@PeeBeee yes it does! Just joined now! The group was great last time around, be nice to have another great group. The WhatsApp group from April 22 is really handy too for quick advice.

PeeBeee · 31/07/2023 19:48

@CrazyRosa accepted you in there :) I never did the whatsaap group! Was it not a bit hard to keep up with? Lol

CrazyRosa · 31/07/2023 19:54

@PeeBeee It was at the start but its after calming down now. It's the same people posting now so I feel like I know their story now etc. Feel like friends but I've never met them😄
Woop thanks for accepting me! I have my scan on 9th August so I'm hoping to be less anxious once that's done.

poppychunks · 31/07/2023 20:02

Love seeing everyones scans.

We had our NIPT test today which had a scan. I thought I was 10+3 but they’ve dated at 11 weeks. Which reassured me as my symptoms have been better for the last few weeks or so so it makes sense.

Baby didn’t move much but we saw his heart beat and his little legs. Even got a picture of his little frog legs ❤️.

any guesses on the sex? I have a feeling it’s a boy but no clue from the ultrasound.

Cxjai792 · 31/07/2023 20:09

Lovely to see everyone’s scans, congratulations! Good luck to those with them coming up soon.
Mine is tomorrow at 9am and I’m pooping myself after scare the other week

poppychunks · 31/07/2023 20:21

Oh I meant to ask, I had my first appointment with the midwife today. Lasted about 30minutes.
They then asked to come for a house visit tomorrow to get more past medical history and appointment would take about an hour. Anyone else had that? Thankfully I’m off work tomorrow. Just thought it was strange at how short notice it was.

Cheetocat · 31/07/2023 21:08

Thanks for all the info on the cats, I think we'll do that, lock them out a few weeks before baby time. I think the girl wouldn't be too interested in a baby but our tomcat is a curious little rascal and he loves to burrow under any and all blankets. I think a cot or moses basket would be very enticing to him.

OurRainbow24 · 31/07/2023 21:11

Hey ladies just jumping on the new feed and thought I’d share my excitement of finally being in my second trimester 🥳13 weeks today.
Congratulations everyone on your scans so lovely to see all the lovely pictures.

@poppychunks iv never heard of a home visit during pregnancy in my area but I could be a thing where you live.
