Anyone want to join me? I'm likely jumping the gun as I have a history of reoccurring loss but it always helps me to chat as if it really will work out this time 🤞🏼❤️

has anyone started a Facebook group?

bringmearainbow · 14/11/2023 13:44

@threeinthree no don't think so. Previous threads I've been on have started Fb groups and WhatsApp groups I wouldn't even know where to start making either of them 😂

Morning sickness is kicking my bum today. I just can't look after my toddler properly and had to have the tv on most of the day. Feel guilty and ill!

hopingfor23 · 14/11/2023 14:29

@Purtyburty me too 😩😩😩 I'm not even 5 weeks yet too so god help me. I have a ten month old and the poor thing must wonder what's going on 🙈🙈 survival parenting!!!

Tammy2603 · 14/11/2023 14:42

@Purtyburty

Same here! Feeling very nauseous over the past few days! Always worse in the afternoon. I'm 6w 6days. Have my booking appointment a week Thursday. Then hopefully a date for a scan!

justanotherlaura · 14/11/2023 14:42

Last time my morning sickness kicked in at exactly 6 weeks, I'm 5+4 today so I feel I have to get as much done as I can before Friday. The fatigue is really bad at the moment though and I feel like I'm wading through custard trying to do simple tasks!

Purtyburty · 14/11/2023 14:46

Praying this sickness ends soon. The nausea is debilitating. I am 6+4 I couldn't deal with another 6 weeks of this.

MrsHousePlant · 14/11/2023 14:48

I’m currently hidden away at work yawning my head off waiting until I can get home and get some rest! The fatigue is really getting to me. I have a bit of a cold coming on my throat is sore and feels rough which is making me gag regularly today, never had that before!

misslomi · 14/11/2023 17:10

Can I join please 🙋🏼‍♀️

Found out I was pregnant a couple of weeks ago after 2 previous miscarriages.

Had a little bit of a roller coaster so far, had some bleeding this weekend, went to A&E and had bloods taken which looked good. Had an early scan today and saw baby with a heartbeat! Baby was measuring a little bit small but they said nothing to worry about as my cycles have been irregular since last miscarriage.

Now I'm looking at 5+6 rather than 6+2 but so unbelievably excited! As I had bleeding and 2 prior miscarriages I had been prescribed progesterone and booked in for another scan in two weeks.

CheshGirl · 14/11/2023 18:55

Struggling big time here, I've been signed off work for a fortnight. Constantly nauseous and exhausted, I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old off school with an ear infection.

Each day feels like a marathon Confused

misslomi · 14/11/2023 19:24

@CheshGirl oh no! That sounds really stressful! I'm the same, constantly feel sicky and knackered. Have work been good about you being signed off?

bringmearainbow · 14/11/2023 19:34

@misslomi that's brilliant! You might find baby catches up again by 12 week scan

@CheshGirl sorry you're feeling so rubbish that's such a tough time hope your other two get better soon

@bringmearainbow thank you! It's been a good day 😌 oh cool! I suppose its so tiny still it's hard to know exactly.

CheshGirl · 14/11/2023 20:25

@misslomi I don't know, I emailed it in and then haven't looked at my laptop since.

I'm so utterly distracted by the nausea that even thinking about work feels comical.

I've had to lean a lot on my DH and dad, they've been great but I don't think I can continue like this for much longer. I'm 7 weeks today.

Having an early scan on Thurs just to check everything ok (and maybe if there's multiples)

misslomi · 14/11/2023 20:55

@CheshGirl Good for you! Yours and your babies health come first. Good luck for your first scan!

MixedCouple · 15/11/2023 02:28

Morning all. I created a group on Birth Clubs had no idea this was here 😂

I got my first Positive 10DPO on Saturday. Very early FF puts me at 4w 3d from period but feom ovulation 4w.
I am 36 with a just turned 2 yr old. We conceived i believe the day of LO birthday 😂

Due the end of July NHS say 27th and FF says 24th. Had LO at 39w 5d so will see if this one comes sooner.

I dont have Facebook so wouod prefer here. Last tike qith LO I was forgotten about every one moved to FB and I had no company.

Savvy21 · 15/11/2023 07:38

@bringmearainbow best of luck with your scan today. Let us know how it goes 🙂

MrsHousePlant · 15/11/2023 07:41

@bringmearainbow Thinking of you today, hope all goes well with your scan 😊

Aaliyahrae · 15/11/2023 11:41

hi guys, can I join? (Quietly). Baby #3 after a miscarriage in July. Had a scan this week and they believe I’m around 6 weeks. Honestly feel so unwell right now, morning sickness is killing me. How is everyone else feeling?

Laylamoxx · 15/11/2023 11:45

Thank you to everyone who responded to my post about lack of symptoms. I spoke too soon and now I have been hit with everything at once. Dizziness, nausea, throwing up. I am 7 weeks this Friday and feeling really bad :(

I have booked a scan for this Sunday, hopefully I will be able to see the baby and the heartbeat. Right now it still does not feel real but hopefully seeing it would make things set in for me and my husband.

Also I hope 7 weeks and 2 days would be enough to see something on the scan. Really scared it won’t be and I am actually dating earlier than I thought. Can’t deal with the crazy anxiety I will have if I won’t be able to see the baby!

Busheytree · 15/11/2023 13:27

Hi all
First pregnancy and 5+5, nausea hits each morning and have to eat a snack every two hours, NHS due date is 10th July so fingers crossed.
Just had two questions, do you think i can carry on in my netball league in the first tri? Or is it recommended not to? Its a recreational league.
Secondly can anyone recommend a good private scan company? I want to get one in before xmas so i can tell family. If you cant recommend could you say what is the average cost? Dont want to get ripped off. Thank you!!

justanotherlaura · 15/11/2023 14:12

Hi @Busheytree congratulations! I'm 5+5 too today :)

I don't know for sure but as netball isn't a contact sport I'd say it'll be fine to keep playing

I used ultrasound direct last time at 8 weeks and a 4d scan at about 32 weeks I think and have booked again for 8 weeks this time. It was £75 but I don't know how that compares with other places, it's the only place in my city

MixedCouple · 15/11/2023 14:16

@MrsHousePlant oooooo hiya. How are you? Nice to see a familiar face/name. Thank you!
I have been hit with extreme fatigue today 15DPO and aches in lower back and pelvis to.
How are things with you?
I been taking lots of tests after the chemical in Sept and things are looking good thus far.
