Tanzibar: I'm craving sweets majorly, but just sweet fruits like pineapple and strawberries- I eat both once or twice a day

Welcome jmandrews! Congrats on the BFP

 

[SLCMommy]

I like mashed potatoes & gravy....weird! LOL

Hi everyone!
My name is Elizabeth and I'm new here. My husband and
I found out two weeks ago we are pregnant. I'm due july 30th.
My doctor has been away so I don't go for my first appointment
Until this Friday. I'm a bit paranoid at the moment because I
Really don't have any symptoms at all. I just hope everything
Is ok. This will be our first.

:wave: Welcome Elizabeth!!

 

[SLCMommy]

Welcome Elizabeth!!!

Hey all! Is anyone suffering from headaches and if so, what are you doing to relieve it? Also, I always get a bad taste in my mouth after I eat....anyone else?

 

[EWebb]

Yes!!! It's the only symptom I have. Headaches
All the time! I haven't taken anything but apparently
It's safe to take Tylenol as long as you only
Take the dosage needed as it says on the bottle.

Oh yes I got really bad headaches starting last friday and then I went on an international flight back to the uk which really helped....not! It comes and goes now but I'm glad I'm not the only one suffering.

I've only had a soluable paracetamol, I don't want to be heavily medicated at the minute, drinking water helps loads too!

My mouth feels like morning breath after food too, it's not good, I can't help but get paranoid at work with the blokes who are dads, I keep wondering if they'll see all my odd behaviour with food and toilet trips and put 2 and 2 together :S

Hi Elizabeth, don't think I've said hello!

 

[EWebb]

Hello everyone! Very nice to meet you all. I have my
First drs appt tomorrow morning and I'm getting anxious.
I have no idea what to expect at all. Plus, my doctor isn't really
One of those warm and friendly types which makes me nervous
Too.

 

[SLCMommy]

Welcome, Ewebb!! Let me know how your doctor's appointment goes!!

I've been craving fresh fruits & veggies....which is a good thing!

 

[EWebb]

Im totally into the fruits and veggies too.
My doctors appt was very boring. Like I mentioned she's
Not overly friendly or nice. She ran off a bunch of questions and
Then said she was referring me to "the maternity clinic. She said
They would be in contact to make an appointment. I had a
Few questions and she kinda seemed annoyed that I was bothering
Her. She gave me an information package and I left. Rather
Anti-climactic. She also couldn't believe I haven't told anyone yet.
She acted like I was crazy.

 

[SLCMommy]

Ewebb - I'm sorry you didn't have a good experience. Hopefully your next obgyn visit will be better.... some people are just jerks!

I just ate a tub of berries and an entire cucumber...LOL

 

[angieloo]

I'm craving fruits and veggies too- I'm going through a pineapple and two cartons of strawberries a week. Sorry about the apt E- will she be your Dr the whole time? Maybe a switch?

I went to see New Years Eve for date night with the DH and they have the best movie coming out- they are making What to Expect When you're expecting into a movie!!! It looks hilarious- no release date yet so fun that it's coming out during our time

 

[peacelikeariv]

People are all gung ho about telling around here too. Three friends are pregnant and due after me. They have all announced it to the entire world. I guess because I have bleeding I am more nervous. I want to wait until after my 14w scan, but dh says Christmas is 12w and we are sharing. I suppose I need to chin up and trust that God has it under control!

 

[SLCMommy]

angie - I heard it was supposed to be released in May

 

[ktskittle]

Sorry you appointment left much to be desired...
I can't wait to start craving anything... Food still sounds blegh to me, but I think it MIGHT be starting to ease up. Fxed!
I finally gave in and gave dj what he wanted last weekend, and had light spotting afterward. I went in for my second ultrasound friday and baby is measuring perfectly, heart rate in the 150s, 160s. They mentioned a very tiny subchorionic hematoma, but said since it is so small it should have no effect on pregnancy. I still worry of course, but I just have to have faith.

I just found out that I have two SCH's.. unfortunately mine are causing some discomfort and bleeding.. but I am hopeful they will reabsorb soon. Did they tell you where it is?

 

[babydumpy]

im due the 7th july but waiting for 12 week scan to confirm

 

[ktskittle]

Sorry to hear about your schs, but good to hear I am not alone. Mine is to the right adjacent to/beneath where the placenta is forming. What did they say about yours? Are you on bed rest?

 

[Bug222]

They didn't actually tell me where mine were. Yeah I am on modified bedrest right now. I saw my GP today but they didn't have the hospital report yet (good job the doc gave me a copy of the preliminary radiology report) so all I know is the sizes. I will have another ultrasound in the next week sometime to see whether is is growing or reabsorbing. I have also been referred to an OB.
