Hi,
I'm in Edinburgh too. I'm not due til around 12th April 2013 but my birthday is your due date lol! How's your pregnancy going?

I'm not so nauseous today. Managed to eat a ham salad sandwich. Glad to not be feelin so ill but now worried that something might be wrong. Lol. I can't win! Xx

 

[Sw1]

I honestly think I'm getting every possible problem! Sickness any time of day, back ache, so tired and major mood swings and very emotional. Hopefully it won't last. Seem to be putting on weight very quickly but Ive really lost my appetite. I find eating rich tea biscuits seems to be helping with the nausea. I know I get paranoid with every little thing because it's my first, when I'm ill it's bad but if I feel fine I worry why I'm not sick!

Hey ladies how are yous today??xx

Well I'm being sick now nt just feeling sick and it doesn't help u feel better I want to stay at home

Oh no At least every time you throw up you know baby is ok!

My symptoms seem to have gone this morning. To say I'm worried is an understatement.

Hi girls,
Sorry to hear you're so ill Cheryl. I was the same as you Laura. Been feelin much better over he last few days and then yesterday I felt back to normal. Rather than be glad of it though I went into panic thinking something was wrong. I googled it too - very bad idea! But then today i'm starting to feel ill again. Not as bad as the beginning of the week, but definitely not feeling normal. So now I'm just glad to feeling something, even if I do feel ill.

I keep looking at tickers in other threads that are in the 2nd tri and thinking ' I wish that was me!'. I never realised the first 12 weeks would be so worrying and stressful. Anyone else feel like that? Xx Emma xx

I fell asleep shortly after writing my post and have just woken up. My nausea is back big time! Have just made a cup of decaf tea in the hope of settling it a bit!

I do think the first 12 weeks are the most worrying. You have no indication that everything is going ok other than MS and tender boobs! I find rather than counting up to 40 weeks, I count down to 12 weeks!! 5 weeks and 3 days to go!

yeah, lol. That's exactly what I've been doing. If I counted up to 40 weeks I would definitely go insane! I'm actually counting the days til I'm 8 weeks cos that's when I have my booking appt. I wont have had any contact with anybody about the pregnancy up til then so I'm looking forward to being able to ask loads of questions! Xx

 

[lj2245]

I don't have my booking appt til I'm 11+3 so I'm glad I have my early scan on Tuesday!

Is it just me or are there more baby adverts on tv than normal?

 

[bbymc]

Haha. Maybe. It seems like absolutely everyone is pregnant to me. I usually see at least 4 random pregnant women a day. Lol.

How come your booking appt is so late? My first scan will be 11+3. It's totally ages away. I wish I could get an earlier date! xx

 

[lj2245]

I don't know! I don't have a date for my 12 week scan yet either.

 

[bbymc]

Hmmm. When did you phone up? Cos it's maybe to do with that. I phoned as soon as I knew I was pregnant and made both appts over the phone then and there. Got written confirmation about a week later. Xx

 

[lj2245]

I made an appt with my local midwife in my docs office when I was 4 weeks and she gave me my booking in appt with a midwife clinic a bit further away in Lanark. Had no confirmations or anything, I might phone and find out what happens.

 

[lj2245]

Just phoned Lanark and they said they dont usually send the scan card away until the booking in appt so I'd be looking at getting a scan nearer 14 weeks gestation. The girl couldn't have been nicer though and is going to send it away now because of my history.

She also said I've to say to Wishaw EPAS about a follow up scan 2 weeks after my scan on Tues. Hurrah! Hopefully this pregnancy won't be as anxiety filled as I feared!

 

[bbymc]

Aww that's great! No doubt that's put your mind at ease somewhat.

Just visited my mum. Turns out her and my dad have been ill over the last few days with a virus causing severe nausea, dizziness and tiredness. Lol. I'm thinking I maybe also had it and thats why I was so ill at the start of he week compared to now. Who knows though. Could have just been the pregnancy. Seems a bit coincidental to me though! Xx

 

[CherylC3]

Aw Bby glad u feel a bit better..x

Lj I'd push for a scan every 2 wks then Hun...x

I've ordered anti sickness band to see if tht will help I feel like such a moan the now

 

[bbymc]

I've ordered sea bands the other day too. Not got them yet though. I hope they work! Xx

 

[lj2245]

Lol I ordered mine off Amazon and looked today to see when they would come as not here yet and it says estimated delivery is not 'til next Friday!!!

Fluff!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I wished I paid for next day delivery. X
