FEBRUARY HEARTS Due in February 2015 , open group all welcome!

[RaspberryK]

Every so often I'm just so tired i sleep through but I got up to wee 4 times and the sun is waking me at 5.30 too.
We are staying at the in laws and they don't have thick curtains like I do at home.
Can you try blocking out the light? Xx

I had my scan this morning! The ultrasound tech was really rude, but other than that, great results! Heartbeat is 152, and measuring 4 days ahead of LMP so my new due date is Feb 21! I'm so excited It was really awesome to see the little flicker of the heart.

 

[MellyH]

Yay, awesome news Megan. Sorry about the rude tech though, hmph!!

Seven weeks today! First appointment in two days!

 

[lynnikins]

the light is waking me up in the morning too I am going to go to bed at 10pm tonight at the latest as I need it, was out till after 11pm last night babysitting for a friend , nearly wrote them a note and crashed in their spare room i was soo tired.

 

[Wnt2beAMom]

I've been sleeping more than usual! If I don't set an alarm I'll sleep 12hours...and if I don't sleep as much because of work I'm exhausted.
Also, my bloat has completely gone down and I have like no bump at all anymore. Is that bad?

 

[ZombieKitten]

I've also been having trouble getting comfortable in bed. My sleep gets interrupted because of how often I have to readjust. I had a body pillow... but I have no idea where it went

Hi ladies,

Can I join you please.

I'm due baby number 2 on 16th Feb

 

[lynnikins]

welcome Jessica
Wnt2baMum , i am sure the bloat going away and the sleep is not a bad sign, i suffer insomnia typically when not pregnant and till i hit about 14wks then i sleep fine till the last 1-2wks

 

[MiniBump]

Oh my, I feel like I've been hit by a bus today! Sooo exhausted. Had a nap with DD but that's given me a headache. Also, I just want to eat all the time to keep the nausea at bay but if I'm eating so is DD and I don't want her to end up obese!

Not feeling the pregnancy love today, I feel so different from my first pregnancy, if we didn't already have two sets of twins in this group I'd swear I was carrying two!

Scan in 3 days, nervous is not the word! x

 

[2nd time]

I dont know why but quite a few us techs are rude they dont realise its possibly the most brill and exciting time of your life

 

[swanxxsong]

Funny thing is, the sun isn't what wakes me up -- I can't see the sun, but my body just wakes. It is SO annoying.

I am now down 6 pounds since I got pregnant. I know my ultrasound went well and I was losing before I had the scan, but it still worries me. I wish I could eat.

Have you asked your doctor about medication? I was so, so sick and ended up needing something. She gave me diclegis, and it has done wonders. I still feel a bit queasy, but can eat and not spend all day being violently ill. I know that people are weary about tablets during pregnancy, but you can read a lot of info about diclegis online. Might be worth looking at.

This morning sickness has taken over. I feel so helpless and weak

Constantly throwing up, can't keep any proper food down and just want to lay down in bed or on the sofa all day. Not easy with a toddler

Anyone else feeling the same? The sickness is taking over my life. At 4 weeks I prayed I would get morning sickness lol. Don't want to complain but I'm finding it so hard to deal with x

 

[Feronia]

I’m finding it so hard to deal with the sickness as well. It feels worse than it was with my daughter. I’m not throwing up, but I’m also not eating. At least I can keep water down, but I feel absolutely horrible all day. It doesn’t help that I work full time in an office and nobody knows I’m pregnant. Ugh. I was also wishing for morning sickness at 4 and 5 weeks just to know things were okay, but I’m sort of regretting that wish now. I didn’t remember how debilitating it is!

 

[ShamzLovesKai]

It is horrible. I'm really struggling to deal with it.

This is exactly me right now. I'm also down 5lbs in the last two weeks (it was 6lbs, but now I haven't pooped in three days again so it's creeping back up!). I am not actually vomiting but just feeling ill and anti-food all day and night.

 

[MissEyre]

Just wanted to commiserate with you ladies. I'm still getting horrible evening sickness. I'm useless after 6 p.m. I miss wanting food!!

 

[readynwilling]

sorry to everyone that is sick

we don't sleep well, but that's cause my 10m old is the worlds worst sleeper.

 

[savvysaver]

I have dropped around 5-6 pounds due to lack of appetite. I was on stomach meds before I got pregnant and they made me really hungry, when I stopped the meds I lost my appetite. Starting yesterday it seems like I have gotten a little bit of my appetite back, but I am just trying to eat small portions throughout the day since when I eat a lot at once I get very full and a stomachache. Problem is that nothing sounds good to eat except strawberries!

Also having a hard time sleeping, I think it is because I wake up multiple times during the night to use the bathroom. Now I am trying to drink 80+ ounces of water earlier in the day so as it gets later I don't have to drink much more.

 

[swanxxsong]

My first appointment is tomorrow. I'm going to talk to the midwife about my weight loss.

My nausea comes and goes. I just have no desire to eat. And many foods I used to like, I can't stomach. I just have no desire to eat. I force down food and it often makes me feel worse. It's an uphill battle! I am grateful for a so-far healthy pregnancy but am worried about getting food for myself and baby. At least I can keep down prenatals to hopefully help my little one some good stuff! lol
