Congratulations and welcome new sweetpeas......
I have days of excitement and then.days where I'm rli.calm and chilled.as I know just how long it is until.I hold my Lil baby. I rli wish I could sleep through pregnancy. Just hibernate until labour, or even after labour would be nice. Hahahaha how is everyone finding everyday life?? I'm soooo tired

 

[Eleanor ace]

I'm feeling pretty tired too, I'm trying to pace myself although that is easier said than done with toddlers isn't it . My DD slept through the night last night a genuine miracle ) so I'm feeling boosted today!
Is anyone going to the gym/exercise classes through 1st tri? How are you finding it so far?

 

[mummy2_1]

I hear you guys, taking care of other kids. I am a foster parent and I have a 6 week old and a 4 month old. The good thing is that I can nap when they nap. I had 3 naps yesterday! I am 5w 5d and the ms and exhaustion is starting to get worse. I am happy to have the symptoms because I know the go is going in the right direction!

I had a dream last night that I started bleeding red blood, so midwife said I was miscarrying and I asked for a scan and the ultrasound showed twins who were just fine. I can not wait for Thursday (my scan day).
How am I coping with normal life? ?? I spend most of my day as a stay at home mum crying and lying down hahaha. Exhausted is one word to describe it. My toddler is full on, never stops. I feel so guilty I can't be a better parent to him right now!

 

[babydreams85]

Thank you ladies, I'm thrilled to be here! I was in a group like this when pregnant with my son, and it really helped to have others at the same place in pregnancy. It was SO exciting when we started having our little ones. I would stalk constantly LOL!

Anyways, I am feeling...well, pregnant! Sore BBs and nipples, some cramping (it has gotten a little better, so maybe just from baby settling in), nausea (especially late at night and early in the morning), and exhaustion. I noticed the last one while chasing my toddler around this morning.

Nice to 'meet' all of you!!!

Hi everyone, I haven't been around for a few days as the ms has majorly kicked in now. I've been in bed all weekend and just crying on and off. I've no idea how I will manage work tomorrow, I'm scared. The only time I feel better is late evening which is crap cos I'm going to bed anyway. I really hoped it would be different this time but apparently not.

to those of you who are feeling rough! It is definitely tough. I'm nervous for the symptoms to really kick in, hoping I get off easy this time around!

Same here Eleanor, I have no symptoms at all except for some fatigue. Wouldn't mind skipping all the symptoms either. I had horrible ms with my first and wouldn't want to revisit that. It made working so difficult. So I really sympathize with the ladies feeling it already.

My scan is not until the end of month. They don't do early scans here (just teh regular 8-10 week scans)... so in suspense I sit... but it's forcing me to get on with life too.

I still haven't told DH. I'm trying to wait until his bday which is end of month.

Hi thought I'd pop in 😄 due baby no2 mid sept we think! Got early scan on 2nd feb, cautiously excited as so early x

Hi Choc - we are the exact same days and weeks. I just started getting worse symptoms yesterday too. I spent my weekend on the couch sleeping. I had 3 naps yesterday. The ms is getting much worse. I also get this sudden hunger incidents where I have to eat NOW.

I keep reminding myself that all these horrible symptoms are my bodies way of telling me that everything is progressing as it should.

I have a scan in two days which will be exactly 6 weeks. Its really scary because thats when it tends to go down hill for me. This time it will be different

Hi ladies!
I'm not 100% sure if I'll be due end of Aug or start of Sept but I thought I'd introduce myself anyway. I'm 36 and preg with my second. My first is 22m and quite a handful - so active! My nausea kicked in on New Years eve which was awesome and has been good a couple hours a day and terrible a couple hours a day but manageable most of the day so I'm grateful. With my first I was unable to eat or drink anything from 5.5 weeks up until 13 weeks! I lost 8 pounds and it was just awful. So the fact that I can eat and drink some stuff this time is good enough for me.

We had our first scan on Thursday (my doc likes to have a quick peek to make sure things are in the right place) and I measured at 6w2d even though based on my fertility friend chart I was 6w6d. Hence the confusion around my due date - I think I'll know more in the next few week.

Congratulations to you all!!!! Hope we all have very sticky little beans

Sept 10 here with #2. I just found out on the 5th. Totally unexpected and unplanned; however, even though the worst timing possible, DH and I have finally got through the shock and are excited (even though scared because of our circumstances).

No symptoms other than bloating, constipation, and gas. Last week was crying uncontrollably. With DD, the crying only lasted a week, so I'm not too worried that I'm over the crying (especially as I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that it was a very overwhelming week).

I originally took a wondofo (sp?) test as that's all I had. Then took FRER and a Clear Blue digital afterwards. I've taken a total of 7 tests over the course of Monday - Friday.

I really can't afford to be buying a bunch of tests, but not testing is making me super anxious. I just really want other symptoms to kick in to help reassure me even though I know that symptoms doesn't always equal good outcome and no symptoms equal bad outcome. I just need something to show up as I feel like this is all just in my head even though I have tests to prove it.

The clear blue digital was 2-3 weeks on the 5th and 7th, and finally changed to 3+ on the 9th. I just really hate this part of the first trimester. My first appointment isn't until the 27th (I'll be just a little over 7 weeks then). I'm assuming my dating scan will be some time within 4 weeks after that. I just want to hear a heartbeat and see that everything is going okay.

Hi everyone, mind if I join you? I got my BFP last week. This will be #2 for us as we already have the most wonderful little boy who turned 3 in November. I was very lucky (in hindsight) last time to not find out till I was already 8 weeks and so finding out this early this time is really stressing me out! I am so cautious as I have minimal symptoms (mildly tender boobs which vary in intensity, cramps last week but have now gone) and I keep repeating the test which is slowly driving me crazy! I don't necessarily want the symptoms - I remember last time wondering how on earth anyone copes being early pregnant with another child to think about, but I am so keen to know that all is well, as we all are I guess. I am hoping to have an early USS maybe next week which seems like an eternity away! I hope everyone is well today? xx

 

[xLaura]

Does anyone else not feel attached to their pregnancy? With my first I was so excited from the start - yeah I felt asif it was going to go wrong at times, but I could still plan and get excited but this time I just can't.

I don't know why, I'm just convinced something Is going to go wrong. I don't even want to tell people cause I don't see the point. I just don't understand why I feel like this. I want to get excited.
