I am also in this position I have touched fruit and veg probably once in the last 7 weeks and thrown it back up ... before that I was always on the healthy eating exercising regularly. Its such a change and also socially has changed me, now happy being at home on my own. Now weirdly all I want is carbs and oddly ice cream (I don't usually even like this)

Ha, I feel like I'm almost the opposite as am currently on holiday so have been stockpiling ALL the lovely fresh fruit at the breakfast buffet every morning lol.

Feel like I'm going to come back and it's all going to go west 😔😂

@Sarah268 yeah I definitely panicked too, although I read it could be because the placenta is starting to take over. I have a scan tonight actually so I'll let you know and hopefully be able to give you some reassurance

That breakfast does look good! Enjoy!!

I feel like I can’t shift the nausea- was like this last time. Feel like the beige food helps short term and then I feel sick again but don’t want to keep eating.

Also the exhaustion is something else! Maybe because I’m running around after a 10 month old and you don’t really get a break. I napped with her this morning but still feel so tired!

92Char · 12/06/2024 18:29

I haven't had much nausea at all but if I get a little bit hungry I feel nauseous. My appetite is so high and I've been just eating a lot in general. I don't have any particular cravings though. It's funny how it's all so different depending on the person.

ohpoowhatnow · 12/06/2024 19:29

Had a scan tonight and all looking good, measuring just under 9 weeks.

LS888 · 13/06/2024 07:57

Good news @ohpoowhatnow ❤️

After the medium heavy bleeding on Sunday, I had my scan yesterday at 9+5 with the twins. Turns out one of the baby's heartbeats has stopped at 7w, (must have been soon after the viability scan), and the other one has healthy heartbeats, and their measurements is 8+6. The sonographer has seen the source of bleeding too.

I have been told I might carry on with the miscarriage of the lost baby, and that might not affect the healthy one or they might just stay there together. Anyway, it looks like there is more bleeding ahead of me (and I started spotting this morning again) and the nurse scheduled a scan in two weeks time.

I am a bit worried that the healthy baby measures almost a week behind (it's an ivf pregnancy, so we know the 9+5 is correct), but the sonographer tried to reassure me that anything within a week is normal and the progression that will count in two weeks

Regarding symptoms, to be a bit more on topic, I don't have much to be honest. I used to have the odd bit of nausea, for a few seconds, but it easily goes away on its own or after eating. I had sore boobs, but not that much anymore. The only thing that is still here is tiredness. Silly it is, but I do envy your symptoms

I feel tired of being hopeful, but I am trying to be

LS888 · 13/06/2024 10:35

@BeLemonQuoter so sorry to hear about the news of your one twin. Must be so hard but stay strong and keep hopeful. Thinking of you. Hopefully they will be able to reassure you more at the next scan 🤞🏻

Ttcagainnow · 13/06/2024 10:52

Hi all, I have my first midwife appointment tomorrow at 10 weeks. What can I expect to happen there?

BeLemonQuoter · 13/06/2024 11:02

I had blood tests, urine tests an carbon monoxide test. There will be lot of questions about you and your family's medical history too

m8ybeb8by · 13/06/2024 11:15

@Ttcagainnow morning!

I had mine this week! I had a call with lots of queries on medical history for you and your
Immediate family and then I had a follow in clinic appointment where they took my weight, height, carbon monoxide test, blood pressure and around 6 bottles of blood.

They also walked me through the midwives at the clinic and who is available when and what I should expect.

They also super useful in letting you know that the nhs puts on NCT style classes which are available.

Hopefully that's useful!

Nothing to worry about and if anything I had lots of random queries which they were more than happy to answer.

Just had a scan at the early pregnancy unit as I'd had a tiny bit of bleeding over the weekend for a few days. Baby looks good...as much as a blob can! Had a heartbeat. I'm only measuring between 7-8 weeks and I thought I was nine so that slightly freaked me out but the sonographer was quite reassuring on that front.

Going to move my scan back a few weeks as I will only be nine weeks if it goes ahead in it's current date according to this scan. Generally feeling reassured but am so nauseous and tired that I'm just too knackered to be excited.

bootsroots · 13/06/2024 13:14

So sorry to hear that @BeLemonQuoter that's such a blow. I hope you're doing okay and looking after yourself. When is your next scan?

That sounds really tough, I'm sorry - when is your next scan? Take care of yourself x

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your twin, and the anxiety about the pregnancy. I'm sending so much positivity your way and hope things well be well at your next scan.

I had sad news today when there was no heartbeat after the follow up scan. We are completely devastated as this was a huge leap of faith for us trying for this baby due to many factors. I have surgery tomorrow which is terrifying for me due to past trauma. Wishing you all the best with your little babas and thanks for the support in this group.

bootsroots · 13/06/2024 19:12

I'm sorry for your loss @Summerrose24 what awful news. I hope you are getting lots of support in real life x

LS888 · 13/06/2024 21:40

@Summerrose24 so sorry for your loss. Hope you are ok and have support from those around you. I had to have surgical management of a miscarriage a few years ago and understand the pain you must be going through. Sending lots of love xx

BeLemonQuoter · 13/06/2024 23:05

I am sorry for your loss @Summerrose24 and I hope you recover from the surgery quickly.

How is everyone getting on ?

m8ybeb8by · 17/06/2024 21:28

@ohpoowhatnow how are you?

I am somewhere between week 8 and 9 and am waiting for dating scan date.

I am feeling ok other than tiredness, bloating and constipation. I'm making sure I have food at hand at all times to manage nausea but otherwise nervous, excited, starting to believe this could be real but also in denial. Grin

I'm also getting back into walking again which has definitely helped my mental health.

warmbutteredtoast · 17/06/2024 22:40

@ohpoowhatnow I'm ok, I was in a car accident at the weekend, I'm ok but had a scan to check baby who seems fine. I've got quite a large hematoma which is a bit of a worry and they want me back in 2 weeks to monitor it. @m8ybeb8by I'm 8+1 so we're quite close! I'm feeling sick most of the time unless I'm eating but I've gone off all food (SO unlike me!)

Ttcagainnow · 18/06/2024 07:25

@warmbutteredtoast oh my!!! Me too, absolutely put off SO many foods. We've got so much food in as I just don't know what I'll be fancying! I'm 10 weeks 5 days.

m8ybeb8by · 18/06/2024 07:44

@warmbutteredtoast hope you're ok!! Good thing they've got you back on for a scan to check haemoatama!!
