Does anyone else get hungry in the night / early hours? 5am here and munching on biscuits

@Growingaseed im always hungry at the moment. I feel like I constantly eat

Anyone else’s tummy feel really heavy? I’m out with my toddler on his bike, and I’m walking but I’ve had to sit down because my tummy just feels so heavy. Not painful, but almost like achy heavy - don’t really know how to describe it. It feels fine when I sit down and only happens when standing. Maybe things just stretching out again 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Lookingtogrowthefamily I did have this but it's been okay the last few days

Dec 23rd

I hated the digitalis with a passion as they made me anxious: I also spent way too much on them as I was stuck on 2 - 3 for way over a week and kept testing. Thankfully on 3plus now but I would advise to put them down as they cause more anxiety than necessary.

Hi everyone, hope you are having a nice weekend 😀. I am 7w5 days today and my boobs have decided to go crazy! Yesterday I had short pan in the muscles in my left breast (lasted about 15 minutes) and today they both decided to tingle like mad - pins and needles sensation everywhere for about 10 minutes. I had a mild ache throughout but definitely something’s changing. Anyone else experiencing this?

Just wondering has anyone told anyone yet? I have a 14 year old son from a previous relationship who has an amazing relationship with my partner (doesn't see his biological dad anymore) the 3 of us are a very close and always promote no secrets, honesty etc. Feels a bit wrong leaving him out til after 12 weeks and I'm honestly not sure how he'll take it, I've a history of recurrent miscarriage (none of which he knew about) but have seen a heartbeat this time at 7+2 which we have never got to before. I'm due another scan on Thursday when I should be just over 9 weeks .. was thinking of telling him then if all ok? Any thoughts?

@Aprahel87 not actually had any boob pain at all yet in this pregnancy. I don't think i had any in my first pregnancy, but i did get very very itchy booby towards the end of the first trimester.

@Desperatelyseekingme I've told some of my closest friends so far. Their support meant the world to me when I had my miscarriage last year. I ideally wouldn't tell anyone else until after our 12 week scan, but we're going on holiday for a week with some more friends (when I'm 12 weeks). And I'm pretty sure they're going to suspect very strongly 😅so I will tell them soon, I think.

We decided not to tell our son until after the scan because he's so young. He's 3, will be 4 in July. And I think he would get very confused if we had another miscarriage. If he was older, like your son, then I think i would probably tell him earlier. As you say, it's very difficult to keep secrets, especially when you're trying to have honest relationships. I think my son knows something is up, as I'm constantly lying down and resting at the moment. But he just thinks I'm not feeling well.

Speaking of, I've picked up a cold 😓 every time I cough, my lower abdomen is hurting. Nausea seems to have eased up today, but still feeling a bit dizzy and lightheaded.

@JH20000 I have also spent way too much in a short time and now wish I’d have just accepted my line tests 🥲 I got a 2-3 today so I’m going to stop now and let things be (as hard as I find that)! Glad you got what you were hoping for in the end 🧡

In the same boat! Due in December. Congrats 🥳

Told my mum our news today and wish I hadn't bothered. All she said was "are you mad?" and "does DH know?"... Funnily enough, he does 🤣
That was it! After 4+ years on secondary infertility, what a gut punch.
There was absolutely no need for the cold reaction, she has never been asked (or offered) to babysit our eldest, we're not financially reliable on her... I'm a 35 year old, married, homeowner with a daughter who is thriving. Her reaction was so bizarre!!

It's put me off telling anybody else now until the 12 week scan... Although can't imagine anyone could have a worse reaction 🙈

@Bomatoes oh gosh, I'm sorry to hear about the reaction from your mum. What a weird reaction to such beautiful, happy news!

@Bomatoesim sorry your mum was like that. I know my family will be horrified when they find out I'm pregnant, especially because they hated my boyfriend, but my ex husband is being amazingly supportive. Everything feels surreal to be honest and it's only been 10 days!

@rach971its such a strange feeling and hasn’t eased off at all yet, but I’m hoping it’s just today.

@Aprahel87i haven’t had any pain in my boobs at all. The only difference I’ve noticed is a change in my areolas, especially if I’m feeling sick they become so big!

@Desperatelyseekingme we haven’t told anyone yet but I’ve become so close to telling my mum. I actually really want to but my step dad has just started cancer treatment so feel like I can’t say anything yet and load more onto her plate as she’s a worrier. If that wasn’t happening I’d have probably told her by now. If you feel like you want to tell him then I would, as you’re already thinking about it so must want to - if that makes sense? It might be quite nice letting him in on things and feeling like you still have that completely honest and open relationship between you all.

@BomatoesI’m sorry she’s reacted that way, it does seem rather strange! Especially if you don’t rely on her for anything, I don’t know why she would say that. Was it in a joking way, or? And do you have any siblings? Just trying to think maybe she’s thinking you’re about to get even busier with another one and she’s speaking from experience? even so, a congratulations and some excitement would have been a bit nicer 🙈 xx

@Bomatoes some peoples reactions are just bizarre aren’t they. My sister in law and brother just said “oh okay…” that was that. We told them 3 weeks ago - I’ve not had a single message from either of them asking how I or things are. Bearing in mind I’ve had 3 previous losses. My sister in law had 2 losses so she understands how it feels to be pregnant after a loss.

@Desperatelyseekingme i guess you know how your son would be should anything happen prior to 12 weeks, but in my eyes, we’re not safe from bad things ever so should we not be honest and share everything that’s going on? That’s just my perspective since my loses, my niece was so lovely with me during my last loss, she had just turned 11. Whilst she cried, she always true to comfort me and said she will forever remember her angel cousin, it teaches emotions and real life rather than an idealistic life - if that makes sense.

Thanks everyone, your messages are very validating! She had three childen, so it is a little pot-kettle..

I'm trying to just push that to the back of my mind for now, I hosting a big meeting tomorrow (4 hours) and a long commute, need to pour all my energy into staying awake and not being sick! The bloat is seriously bloating though. Anyone else already in maternity wear?
