Phew! Glad I'm not the only one!

I'm having a rough evening Remembering how crappy first trimester is.

 

[southerngirl2]

Mine come and go, too. The only thing that's been consistent is having to pee a lot and being hungry every couple hours.

Usually once I slack off on my water intake (after 12) I don't have to pee much... but I have been! So weird...

Hey all.
I don't know if anyone has this problem, but what would you do about second hand smoke? Neither me or husband smoke, but my parents do. We visit them quite often. I don't want to tell for a little while, but I also don't want to expose the little one, no matter how small, to it. Any advice?

Duchess of cambridge had very bad morning sickness and she had baby George

I suppose the only truth with wives tales is that they are all 50% true! Still fun though!

Do you have any preference laska?

Since Hubby already has a son who I've helped raise since he was 9 (he's now 18). We would both love a girl but all I'm praying for is a healthy baby!!!

Went to the Dr. Today for a blood test, that'll take a couple days to come in but another urine today was positive! I'm still in shock that this is happening so soon!

 

[Laska5]

Phew! Glad I'm not the only one!

I was feeling pretty normal today too, but this afternoon the pressure/cramps have started! The ladies are tender to touch but not really sore.

I've always had to pee more than average, so pregnancy is just extra fun

Hello, ladies! May I join?
My second LO is due March 1st, although I'm secretly hoping for a February birthdate, as I don't want both LOs being born in the same month. I know it's silly, but I'm allowed to be silly! lol

Haha I do too!

We're going to see How to Train Your Dragon 2 tonight. I'm a little worried I won't make it through Thankfully we're seeing a short movie and not one of those 3 hour epics!

I'm already waking up to pee once overnight. I'm really afraid of the third trimester. Maybe I'll buy some extra extra large diapers

Could you make up an excuse such as you've got a sore chest/throat and ask them to go outside?

If it was my parents I'd just moan and nag them to go outside as I don't want to smell of it. Just depends on the kind of relationship you have with them I suppose. Could try just asking them out right not to and using the excuse it's uncomfortable/it stinks?

Sorry I'm not much help!

welcome Curly & congrats on your BFP!

Maybe I sound stupid, but me and SO bd (is it still called that once I'm preggo?) and he hit me once in a weird spot inside that sent pain through my uterus... is this bad? He went softer after that, but I can't help but think something bad could have happened?

 

[chimama]

Congrats curly! We have the same due date.
I have ultrasound scheduled for Monday, July 7th so looking forward to it.

I went on a hospital tour yesterday and felt odd with these group of ladies who looked like they could go into labor any second! It was fun though and we saw two cute babies in the nursery. At that point, no one was listening to the tour guide and was just admiring how cute the babies looked!

I liked the hospital (the best in the state) but I have another tour at the end of the month for another hospital that uses more midwives (their CS rate is also lower). The second hospital is also about 5 minutes from my house and I don't have to pay for parking every time I come for antenatal. I also get a chance to meet the midwives at the second hospital so will see if I feel comfortable using them.

 

[Foxycleopatra]

Well the morning sickness has kicked in. Not to the point of vomitting but the feeling neausiated all the time and can you say bloated?!?

I just rang to get bloods and my OB/FS is on leave till the end of next week so I will have to be happy with my lines getting darker till he returns.

I guess I should go to the chemist and get my progesterone pessaries.

He's probably just hit your cervix which will be extra sensitive and tender at the minute. Baby had a lot of cushioning so I can't imagine it doing any harm! I have this happen to me quite often, even before pregnancy. Just take it easier for a while.

Oh I hope you're right! Every ache and twinge just makes me nervous - the next 25 days (until my first US) can't come fast enough.

I know the feeling! Mine is in 3 weeks. Can't stop worrying. Had some mild cramping earlier and was panicking. So glad to have everyone on here for support!

Well had some sharp pains on my right side earlier so of course I started googling ectopic pregnancy like a mad woman! It was like a sharp stabbing pain that lasted only a second and would come and go. It happened probably 7 times over the course of a few hours. I know it's rare but it still worries me. 10 more days until my ultrasound, these are going to be the longest 10 days of my life

I have been having all kinds of sharp pains too - I refuse to Google ectopic (I'm at a high risk and am scared enough of it), I have already Google'd miscarriages and am sufficiently freaked out. I told my concerns to my SO, who told me the worrying started the day I got BFP and isn't going to stop for the rest of the child's life... he's really right...
