Sorry I've been so quiet ladies...busy at work!
Breezy...so super thrilled for you!!!!!! I have a friend who also had some spotting, I've heard it's very normal in pregnancy.
I am going to be 6 weeks on Monday and still feeling really good. My boobs are only slightly sore...mainly at night when I sleep...I am TOTALLY wanting bigger boobs. I'm only a B!!!! Bring on the udders ;-) No nausea...just hungry most of the day (but it's winter here...so that's pretty normal for me) and tired in the evenings. But nothing hectic. When did all your nausea and other symptoms kick in? I've heard 6 weeks...so a bit nervous about Monday ;-) I do bloat quite a bit after eating and do notice a teensy bit of constipation...no fun!
I think I am also going to head to the gym tomorrow, just for a gentle walk and cycle. Gotta keep active and I've been bad for the last 2 weeks or so!
Hope you all have an awesome week and I promise to be more active on here...xxx
My nausea didn´t kick in until 8 weeks
, and stayed for a solid 4 weeks.
It´s slowly receding. I sometimes feel a bit queasy, but that usually passes fairly quickly, especially if I force down something to eat (carbs are best for that... weird).
Thanks,
MrsC! I am feeling really good again today, but feeling much better about feeling good. Haha. I hope this lasts (with maybe one or two random symptoms to keep me from any worrying).
Ugh, I am so sorry you are feeling so nauseous! I hope it goes away early for you too!
I am still having major food aversions. So, while I am feeling good - there is not much that sounds good to me. It's funny b/c normally I am a big foodie. Now going out to a nice dinner sounds disgusting to me. All the rich sauces and fancy preparations -ugh! I'll just take a taco or hamburger and fries. I really shouldn't complain.
MrsC - don't you have an U/S coming up? Post some pics of that cute little stinker!
Preg_P - Yay! Excited for your first scan! Will you post a pic too?! Glad your nausea is leaving you! And hope it stays away!
No worries
babysa. Sorry work has been so busy. Yay for 6 weeks! When is your scan? I haven't actually been too nauseous. Small bouts at random times - mostly I have just been feeling like I am really hungover. The worst for me was 6 and 7 weeks. But feeling better yesterday and today - not so hungover. FX'd it stays away. Maybe you won't get nauseous at all! FX'd for you! I think staying active definitely helps (although, easier said than done).
Breezy - when are you gonna get a cute lil ticker? Are you five weeks now? How are you feeling today? I have my next appt on 8/2. So, that will be an exciting week for us!
I hope all of you ladies have a great weekend! And, agree, MrsC - so excited for all of us!!!
Yep, definitely posting pics here
Only 2 more days. (actually in 48 hours, I'll be walking out of the hospital with my pictures
)
The only food aversion I´m feeling now, is boiled and fried vegetables. I used to love those, now they make me want to hurl, just looking at them.
I´m totally craving any kind of carbs, as those seem to hold the queasiness at bay.
preg_pilot - I can't believe you had to wait until 14 weeks for your first u/s. That's pretty late! You must be very patient. But that means it's all the more exciting
Let us know how it goes!!! And share your image is you don't mind
I do hope your nausea is gone for good!!! FX I wouldn't wish this stuff onto my worst enemy
babysa - do exercise as much as you can while you can! I wish I did more as I let 'feeling tired' get in the way. Now the nausea won't let me do anything!!
MD - yeah it's hard for me cause I'm a big foodie too! We love cooking up awesome meals and going out to try new things, but right now all I can stomach is some Goldfish crackers (whole grain - I'm trying to be as healthy as i can!), toast with brie (pasteurized) and these VitaMuffin Tops I've found in the grocery store frozen aisle. They come in many flavors but the Golden Corn was the only one that appealed to me. They are great cause they are high in fiber and fortified with vitamins so I feel better when I eat them rather than crackers.
This is SO different than my usual diet - I've always been low carb (only whole grain carbs) so it's hard for me to be ok with eating only crackers and such. But I know I have to as it's the best I can do
hopefully soon I'll be able to eat protein and veggies again. FX!!! And I'm glad to hear you're not only feeling better but ENJOYING it!!!
Good work
Oh and my u/s is on Monday
cannot wait!!!!
Yea. No. I´m not that patient. My OH would tell you that
I´m totally freaking every day that I haven´t really had any confirmation of my pregnancy really. I peed on a few (ok, a lot) sticks, and then when I went to the midwife, she drew some blood, but I haven´t heard anything since then.
She tried listening, but couldn´t hear anything, as bean was probably still hiding behind the pubic bone.
I also don´t have to turn in a urine sample until at the end of this month.
I just want confirmation (other than my numerous symptoms of course
)
Yeah, I definitely didn´t like being pregnant for those 4 weeks, I´m a bit ashamed how pissed I was. (should be thankful, right?) . I was just so tired of this, and wanted it over.
For the last 3-4 days, I´ve definitely been feeling the pressure down there. Pretty sure my bump will pop any day now.
Hi ladies glad to hear your all doing well.
Breezy how scary for you I'm so happy it all worked out.
This has been a crazy week for me I feel like I'm drunk most of the time dizzy and out of it and ridiculously tired. I must say though I love it cause it reminds me I'm growing my child, what could be better than that.
I'm so jealous of those with upcoming ultrasounds, I'm trying to set one up for when I'm 8 weeks and it seems like forever away. Can't wait to see my peanut.
Can´t say I don´t remember that one. Bumping into walls
, needing to stand up slowly, and sleeping all the time (and napping, don´t forget napping).
Finally getting better, and I´m planning on a bunch of gym trips during the next few weeks
