Hi guys,

if like me you’ve just got your BFP, then it’s likely you’re due in January too!
congratulations.

@Moosey898 im 10+4 feel like it's flown since finding out.

Well done on getting those booked it it's great milestone to achieve think of it that way!

I have a scan on Friday and ive just actually been saying to my partner the anxiety and what ifs have kicked in but as he says there has been no signs to feel like that and stop worrying.

We need tinjust have faith in our bodies itnknows what it's doing xxx

Does the shower make anyone else gag? I literally can't get water on my face or I am off gagging and trying not to throw up? Same with the taste of toothpaste. I have actually ordered children's strawberry flavoured toothpaste in the hope that is better 😆

@Jadeypie aw that's great! You'll be at your scan before you know it.

My issue is 4 missed miscarriages back to back and no living children....I don't trust anything in the slightest unfortunately! I hope it does work out but it's hard to imagine a positive outcome if that makes sense. I know I sound so negative but I guess it's also self preservation at this stage.

@Moosey898 well done for booking everything. I'm the same as you. I've got a private scan tomorrow and the anxiety is at an all time high. I'm trying to stay calm and be positive but I'm struggling. But we have to just believe that all will be well x

@lifebeginz I've not experienced that myself. Sounds rough, you poor thing.

It is horrible. I am feeling much less nauseaus overall so I am trying to be positive and think I will take the gagging at random things so long as I don't have the god awful nausea lol

SureLook · 10/06/2025 11:18

@lifebeginz hopefully it doesn't get any worse 🤞🏻

Moosey898 · 10/06/2025 13:06

@SureLook will be thinking of you tomorrow and will have everything crossed that things are good and on track x

I know how you feel. It’s awful, isn’t it? I told my boss the other day because I was so ill and started it with “I have news but we’re not getting excited yet…” I just feel like it’s going to end at any moment. All we can do is take one day at a time. Xxx

Hi everyone, feeling ever so grateful to discover baby is growing perfectly, I’ve had a lot of anxiety over the past few days as I’ve had previous losses. My heart is so full. Wishing you all the best 💕

Beautiful news!! Congratulations! Xx

Does anybody find that their symptoms come and go? One minute I'm exhausted and feeling this constant low level nausea, the next it's all gone and I wonder if it's all just in my head... Got a private scan booked this Friday when I should be 6w5 and I'm feeling convinced that there won't be anything on the screen!

Symptoms can come and go seems to be common. I find my boobs kill of a evening and not so bad of a day xx

I find that when I am at work and focusing on other things, I don't notice any symptoms. But before and after work I feel back to being nauseous and tired again.

peps2917 · 10/06/2025 17:17

Guys I don’t know about anyone else but I am feeling soooo unbelievably exhausted!! I normally exercise a lot and now I’m definitely not able to. It is so sad! Any tips from anyone that doesn’t work from home? I can’t take naps (but I do have my own office so I can hide in there quite a lot).

I am allergic to iron tablets so need to wait for my midwife appt to see how I can get iron levels up. I normally eat lots of veggies that are iron rich but the nausea isn’t helping with that… 😔

can’t wait for this first trimester to be OVER!

Sunshinemoom · 10/06/2025 17:51

I’m so tired as well. Thankfully only in the office a couple times a week, I’ve taken to napping in the car on my lunch break. Then when I get in I nap for a hour on the sofa but it’s not sustainable!! I think I need to call my midwife as my iron levels were just out of normal on my booking appointment but I assume worse now with my sickness and nausea!

PilatesAndLattes · 10/06/2025 18:01

I thought week 7 was bad but I’m barely surviving week 8. My nausea and exhaustion is so bad. I’m only sick twice a day but the nausea is constant. I’ve also gained 9lbs already because I have to keep eating to stop being sick. The first trimester is hard.

Soo exhausted too! It feels like I have been drugged! I used to exercise a lot too and take long walks but I’ve turned into a sloth who struggles to move around the house.

The nausea is what did me. I’m on tablets for both sickness and my nausea and I really know if I’ve missed a dose I’m so ill. I’m hoping it gets easier as I’m 10 weeks today!
