fears of the past.

[laura109]

Im only 5 weeks. I left my job in homecare the week before i found out as they were putting on me too much. I had no money or spare time. Ive gone onto a home course to do a health and social care btec.

i thought id enjoy being at home but im only 25 and the house is depressing me. I do see friends and family on certain days but there at work.

Ive found the first week of pregnancy scary as i was crampy.

i felt better this week and now im feeling tired and sickly. I lost a baby at ten weeks when i was young. I had such awful morning sickness and im scared of getting it again

i dont bring up that baby much because it brings back bad memories. But i remember not being able to eat anything somedays. I felt awful. My blood pressure went low and i ended up on tablets i also had a jab to stop me being sick for a few hours..

just washing my hair made me exhausted. The smell of shampoo and face creams made me sick. The taste of gum made me sick. Going in the car made me feel awful.

i stayed home for a month crying in bed and wanting to die. I realised last year i wanted a family and im starting to worry about going that way again. Xx

I've had losses too, and it's totally normal to worry, we all do especially here in first tri but you will get through this I promise. This forum is amazing, I used it when I was pregnant with my dd, when I had my loss a few months ago and I've used it all the way through this pregnancy so far, and I honestly think it's a god send because you get so much help and support.

Try and relax, I know that's easier said than done, we are all here to support you and answer any worries or questions you may have.

Thank you. I think there are tablets for morning sickness now arn't there? I do love this forum. Its ni e to know people are going through the same x

 

[Mummy to be x]

Yes I'm pretty sure there is, if you go see your doctor I'm sure he or she will be able to give you something x

I agree with mummy that this is a lovely forum. I've been on here when I found out I was pregnant with DD and even with my 2 losses. I am scared as well and think it's normal to feel this way after a loss. You can get prescriptions for sickness at your doctor. Xxx

I totally hear where you are coming from. I don't work so I decided to become a foster parent. So I am at home most of the time and it does get lonely. My husband pushes the fostering because it means that I have meetings to go to occasionally and appointments that I have to take the kids too. It gives me a little bit of work at my own pace and doesn't leave me isolated.

I am a week behind you, I am 4 weeks. I had a MMC around December, at 6 weeks. I am really being cautiously optimistic on this PG, I am soooooo worried about going through another MC. It's one thing to go through all that pain when it comes to labor and having a baby to bring home, it's another to go through it and have nothing in the end.

Just try to relax and not stress out....I know easier said than done.

Thank you. Must be very rewarding fostering. It is deffo one worry after another.

i hope u also have a happy and healthy pregnancy. Xx

It is great fostering. If you are at home it keeps you busy. Although it is not a job to pay the bills, they do help with some of your utility bills and stuff.

Sorry to hear your last experience of pregnancy. When I found out I was pregnant this time I worried about how ill I would feel after my last pregnancy. I was sick the whole way through that one but not as sick as you by the sound of it. I was panicking about how I would care for my toddler whilst being so ill. The big difference for me is being sick last time ended in the positive experience for me of getting my little girl. So I kept reminding myself of that. I have been the same this time and if has been Really hard but I am 12 weeks tomorrow and even when you think the weeks will never pass when you feel ill they do. I really hope you don't feel so ill this time but even if you do, lots of people have different experiences from one pregnancy to another and it sounds like a while has passed since the last time so hopefully that will be the case. I made 40 soups and froze them before my sickness began. Thought it would help give me nutrition although I haven't fancied soup!! Never mind. Thought it might give you something to do and maybe you will manage them !!!

Aww thank you hun. Im glad your doing well. I can imagine it can be scary when you have a child already to care for. I want the end result so much. Today has been a down day i think. But i guess ill suprise myself with how brave i can be lol. 7 weeks of sickness is worth it for a family.

the soup idea sounds good thanks for the tip and congrats xx
