I'v not got on for a few days but am so glad to hear about all the good scans. Poshie and beachlover, your about ready to move over to the second trimester board now! Samzi, are you more nervous or excited now?

I had a midwife appointment on Wednesday and it went well. It was my 24/25 week appointment and I am weighing the same as my booking in appointment but the MW said not to worry since my LO is growing fine and my bump is getting bigger and I seem healthy. I thought I was losing a bit of wight but was not sure since my belly was getting bigger but I feel relived that she said there was no need for me to be gaining much wight. She also gave me some cream made for breast feeding mothers and it is making me feel a bit less sore, although my breasts as a whole still feel full and achy and are leaking.

Hi girl, hope you are all well. Haven't been on much as sooo busy at work this week!

Am starting to have a bit of doubt about everything. I have been so positive and don't want to lose that feeling but also don't want to tell anyone how I feel because all everyone keeps saying is "lots of people have 2 miscarriages and will have perfectly healthy baby, don't worry it will all be fine".

I don't feel like I have many symptoms at all compared to some of girls that post My nipples are more horribly sensitive than sore, boobs not sore every day but get occasional pains in them, nauseous maybe 75% of evenings but have never been sick. Think Im more tired than normal in the evenings but not every evening. Am just starting to panic for my early scan in case I have another MMC My symptoms aren't wildly different than they were last time. SOme days have a lot of twinges and back ache but then some days I don't feel pregnant - at all!

Sorry girls think Im having one of those days and the only place I could think to post where people will understand is here.

I will be 8 weeks 5 when I have my early scan and it's back in the EPU where I had all the other problems and I don't want to go back.

Sorry, I guess I just want to know if everyone feels this way? Is not having loads of symptoms bad.

 

[OmiOmen]

Minime, a lot of people have no symptoms and have very healthy pregnancy's so I would try not worry about that and by the sounds of it you have quite a few. All I had in the first trimester was what felt like period pains that turned into clear stretching pains and very bad nausea and sickness and had days when I did not feel pregnant at all. It is defiantly normal to feel that way after two m/c's and for the first 12-13 weeks I spent all my time trying not to think about being pregnant at all because I was so sure it would happen again. The first scan will be hard, I did not get an early one this time but my 12 week one felt awful and I wanted to run out of the place. I hope everything goes really well at the scan, not long to wait for it now!

 

[Poshie]

I agree with Omi. You have got symptoms hun (you read back through what you've put and you'll see you have). I haven't had sore boobs or nipples since 7 weeks. I have afternoon/evening nausea since then but have never vomited. I had my early scan at 8w 6d and saw our healthy pip. I'm sure this will be the case for you you know. I felt exactly the same as you, I was dreading going back to 'that place' and was sooo nervous and tense. I also know that no matter what anyone says, you will be nervous. This is totally understandable but you are pregnant and the odds are on your side. Plus you are a member of the exclusive 3rd time lucky club and we have a 100% success rate so far

Hi Omi. Glad all went well at your appt and the mw is not concerned about your weight. I know I'm further behind than you but I haven't put on any weight yet. I think it varies from woman to woman as to when and how much weight you put on. In some ways, I'd say it's lucky if you don't put on much weight (as long as bubs is okay) as there'll be less to lose afterwards!

 

[minime2009]

Thanks so much

I even had myself wondering if I was thinking so much about symptoms that I had imagined them!

You are both very sweet and cheered me up a bit! Fingers crossed I keep the 100% success rate!

 

[samzi]

Omi - im more excited atm, but i know once im in full swing il be nervous as hell

been having some period pains today and im 37+ 3 by my dates. bet il go overdue though!

 

[beachlover1]

Hi girls!!

Back from being away with work!

Minime....what you are feeling is TOTALLY normal!! especially after 2 MCs. PLEASE dont worry, yes you do have symptoms 1) you feel sick 75% of evenings...I was only sick 2 times at about 9/10 weeks, didnt feel sick all the time, and sometimes it lasted 2 mins then left!
2) yr tired!...i have never been tired really, no more than usual!!!
3) yr nipples are sensitve!!...mine never have been!
4) yr PERIOD has not come, you are not bleeding, you are not in pain.

Please be reassured by this, everyone is different. i was speaking to a work mate last night whos 21 weeks, she has NEVER felt sick, never had sore boobs and never been tired!!!!! shes doing well!

Once you get that scan you will be reassured, but we have all been back to "that place" and survived! you will be fine....we have 100% success touch wood. Big hugs xxxxxxx

Everyone, hope your all ok...its the weekend at last!!!!! xxx

 

[beachlover1]

ps I just noticed my ticker moved up a box!!! ;-) xx

 

[OmiOmen]

I had to ask samzi, now I am getting near to the third trimester the worry is just starting to set in a bit.

Well, 13+3 is defiantly officially the second trimester! Did it go fast or slow for you? The first trimester seemed to drag for me.

I am not too worried about my weight now the MW said it is ok. My hope is that I don't gain loads now so I will not have much to lose. My breasts were totally fine until a few weeks ago and now are really uncomfortable and I am producing colostrum at a ridicules rate, I feel like I could feed 10 babies already! Lol. It is so gross! I think I had more symptoms in early pregnancy the first time but the "morning" sickness was worse this time and thats all.

 

[samzi]

no worries, i didnt mind you asking

Thanks hun. I have been doing so well being positive but just the past 24 hours have been a struggle. You have all helped though

 

[Poshie]

Welcome back BL how was your trip? for weekend and for moving up a box!

Had a fairly strenuous morning starting with a dog walk, followed by cleaning my car inside and out. Hard work I can tell you

Watched a sky+ programme, the first I've ever recorded and yep it worked fine. Lazing around this afternoon and now thinking about 2nd dog walk and cooking tea.

Not long til you see you see your bean minime

 

[MissyMojo]

just popping in with somee supersized and giant box of sticky

 

[Drazic<3]

Hey girls,

I suck - sorry I haven't updated. Everything was grand. I was so expecting bad news but there was the little heartbeat. They don't want to see me in the EPU again so trying to be brave and to push through until my NT on 22nd Feb. That feels like FOREVER away! But we will get there.

Minime, please don't panic. You are just behind me and I was exactly the same. It's only in the last week or so my sickness has really stepped up loads! My boobs have never really been sore, unless I squeeze my nips which would probably hurt anyway - I know it's so hard, but chin up

Love and all round -x-

 

[shmoo75]

First time in ages that I have had a chance to get on here!! I'm so busy at work I don't have a chance to get on here!!

I am very glad all so far has gone well with everybody's scans. I have my official 12wk scan tomorrow at 12pm then, I have my blood test which, I will get the results of by 11/02 when I next see the m/w. Me and OH are starting to fret again as scan day is approaching. I know the chance of something going wrong once you have seen the baby and its hb is drastically reduced but, as I have also had 2 m/c's its hard not to think the worst. I am sure everything is fine. Will let you all know once I am back home from the scan.

 

[Poshie]

Good to hear from you drazic and so pleased your scam went well milestone no. 1 under your belt now eh. We all have to start somewhere and that first scan being positive is as good as it gets I know what you mean about 22 feb being ages away....my next scan is in 7 weeks and that seems like an eternity!

Hey schmoo Hun, great to hear from you, I have been wondering how you've been doing best if luck for your scam tomorrow, we will all be thinking of you and waiting for your update. How are you feeling symptoms wise these days?
