Due In May :)

[Hann12]

Nice bump pic! I'll try and post mine in a bit!

Sorry for all the insensitive OH's - hopefully they will sort themselves out!

I had a horrible dream last night that I woke up with period like bleeding. I think it's because I heard yesterday that a girl I know here was 10 weeks and just started bleeding an miscarried. I think the baby must have actually passed earlier than 10 weeks but she didn't know. I guess that's why early scans are so good because you can at least see the progress. I only have 2 days to wait for my next scan thankfully! Wish I had my 12 week one booked in though! Stupid hospital!

That's why I'd have liked an earlier scan Hann. I keep worrying that ill get to my 12 week one and they'll say something bad. I know it's awful to think like that but I could do with the reassurance. But I doubt they'll let me have an early one so i guess we'll have to wait that bit longer to see baby!

How's your sickness doing Hann? Any better?

 

[Hann12]

Jary you have good symptoms though do try not to worry - I think this girl had none. It's very sad though. I wish they just have everyone early scans, we have been paying privately for ours but I know not everyone can do that so we are lucky.
My sickness was awful yesterday, it really varies day to day and hour to hour though. I'm finding that from about 11am onwards it gets worse. After my morning dry heave I find that if I eat breakfast I'm okay then from 7ish until 11, apart from the tiredness.
How about you?
I haven't found the heartbeat yet, tried a few times. Not sure what's the best mode for a sonnoline b so I've been experimenting but nada so far! I will feel loads better when I find it! Going to ask the sonographer on sat which side it's at so I can find it on the Doppler. My dd was def on the left and low. Might try again later...

Pro sorry that your OH is being insensitive, I don't think men realise how hurtful those comments can be

Powell: check our bumpy! Coming along nicely ! I just feel bloated! My trousers are starting to get tight and I'm struggling to hide it in tops now but only 2 weeks tomorrow till scan then no more hiding !

How is everyone? X

 

[Hann12]

My almost 9 week bump - think it will post sideways!

 

[Jary]

Well at least you can take comfort in the fact that your sickness is a good sign! Easier said than believed at times tho lol.

Mines ok at the mo. I've just finished nights and I had a bit of indigestion but that's it. Night before was awful tho....that was the first time I've been sick tho wasn't really anything there as I couldn't face eating much all day (which is probs why I was sick) and my indigestion would not go away! Had some gaviscon which only made me gag.

Luckily I met a pregnant relative of a patient who gave me one of her ginger sweets called 'gin gins' it did take the edge off the nausea a little but I'm still not a huge fan of ginger lol.

The last two mornings I've been naughty and had a McDonald's breakfast....not healthy but it's the only thing I've fancied. I think my baby might be obese by the time it's born because only fast food sounds good ALL the time xD

So bloated today too! Tummy feels quite hard and I feel like I'm waddling already heh

 

[Jary]

Nice little bump Hann!!!

Also, my NHS maternity exemption card arrived! Woop! Hopefully won't need it too much tho

 

[Stevensmummyx]

I've been terrible for fast food! But nothing else seems appealing! Its better than nothing right? (It sounds better when I say it like that )

I wonder how starry got on x

 

[shellgirl]

Love your bumps ladies! Can't wait for mine. I just have bloat right now, ugh.

 

[Hann12]

I was thinking about starry too - hopefully good news!

Just had lunch and now I feel sick. Annoying! Anyone else get headaches when they are tired? I literally feel exhausted but then get a splitting headache.

 

[Stevensmummyx]

I've had headaches but not as bad as when I was expecting steven so thank god, I feel exausted today tho, had a shit night trying to sleep so took the day off uni but still can't sleep :/! X

 

[Hann12]

I can't sleep either - got builders in and they are banging and drilling. That's probably the cause of the headache in fact!!

 

[BDownmommie]

No headaches, just extreme fatigue - honestly, I think I could sleep for 24 hours straight.

Wow, I'd be so upset with the OH right now if he said anything even remotely similar - he'd probably be sleeping on the couch for a week.

Love the bumps - my bump showed today too - I tried to get dressed nice bc we have a big meeting today - but the clothes I wanted to wear - nope, wasn't happening today...or for a while. Goodbye sexy cloths, hello baby bump lol

 

[eggo preggo]

Ladies loving the bump images, mine is just as big as yours Powell if not bigger lol. . Can't wait to graduate to 9 weeks! I've started peeking at maternity clothes on asos, since we are going to chilly Canada in November am going to need some super comfy winter snugly clothes.

I've been exhausted to, all I can manage is 6 hours at work then I need a snooze!

Also been boiling fresh ginger in the mornings and been working wonders to keep the nausea at bay. Keep well ladies x

 

[CLH_X3]

I am always hungry!!!! Grr... Anyone else ?

 

[eggo preggo]

I am always hungry!!!! Grr... Anyone else ?

Yes hungry that too!
Your baby is soo very cute

 

[pinktiara]

I look huge already mind you that seems to be how it goes after baby number 1 I never got rid of my stomach to begin with. Looking at maternity clothes there so friggin expensive I didn't wear them last time but clearly I'm fatter now haha.

 

[BDownmommie]

Awe, that just makes it sound sad pink - your not 'fatter' your just more preggers let's say. I hate the thought of the next few weeks before I officially tell everyone - when they think im just getting fat, and really it's two beautiful babies growing inside. I just hate that thought so much...of well, DH and I know.

It's so cute, the last few nights the DH has taken to talking to my stomach before bed, and actually kissing my belly (twice) goodnight. So cute. The strange part is - is that it makes me laugh, not only bc its cute, but just so ticklish now when i wasn't before...so strange.

And YES - almost always hungry....lol - feedings for three (two plus me) wowsers, feel like im hungry and eating all the time.

 

[Powell130]

Nice Powell! Sometimes I wish I looked that good again, my first two gave me some pretty permanent stretch marks, not to mention my c-section scar from my son lol

But anyway, could you be further along? Wow, I didn't start showing with my first until I was close to 16 weeks! lol

Thanx! Oh I have stretch marks, they're just on my butt and legs so you can't see them here thanx to the pants

No, I've had 3 US so far and they're all in line with my tickers. This pic was closer to 10 weeks than 9 as I took it yesterday. But I was also VERY SLIM when I got pregnant. Like I had a 6 pack. I have always been skinny so I figured I'd start to show pretty early, just never expected THIS early lol but I have a feeling it's going to keep going up and down for a few weeks while my uterus is still on it's way up. I've been able to feel it coming out of my pelvic bone for about 2 weeks. It's a mixture of baby and bloat. Baby at the bottom and the rest on top lol

My hubs aunt was 1 lb heavier than me when she got pregnant with her first and started showing around 10-11 weeks

 

[Sass827]

Ive been non-stop hungry since day 1. I'm huge. Powell and Hann - your little bumps are so cute! I'm looking 4 months along, and yes, it's my first.
My mom thinks I'll stop eating so much when I hit the second tri and it will help me balance things back out. I think I've already gained 8 pounds. I feel like a super fatty. Maybe when I get my first scan in 10 days it will show a few babies in there and make me feel better about this.
I too have a house full of handy men, Hann. They are a super headache! They've been here since Sept 5, making my life a nightmare. Hopefully they will finish tomorrow. What are you having done to your house?
