[wannabubba#4]

GG -Sorry to hear that babe -but think of the wonderful wedding you are going to have...and then ?? a Honeymoon baby !!! Keep in touch. Hope you are feeling okay.xx

Justmarried -Omg that's the best day ever for your scan. You can go into the new year with fresh images of your lil baby kicking his/her legs etc, and a pic of your LO too. Double celebration, Hogmanay and first baby pic awwww. Definately worth a teensy tiny glass of champers at the Bells lol. xx

Sickness/nausea is still here all day and night but haven't been quite as sick, managing to keep hydrated and at the moment thats the most important thing. Was on my way to buy some accupuncture bands today, and got stuck in a huge traffic jam yuegh -with my real distaste for travelling at the moment, motion sickness yukky yukky It was the worst hour of my life and ended up having to turn around and never got to the shop after all lol

Hello ladies

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.

MS still here, but not quite as debilitating as before so that's good.

Hugely bloated though,Omg I look about 4-5months gone rather than only 8weeks. And I feel so heavy too -feel as though I am carrying around a huge boulder in my belly lol. With the continued sicknes though, I haven't actually put on any weight -I am exactly where i was 8 weeks ago lol but wiith a huge drum belly lol.

How is everyone else doing??
MM Glad to here it isn't just me who hasn't a clue what my hcg levels are lol - would be nice to know I s'pose but then only something else to worryt about lol -Is it too high? Is it too low ? haha -we are going to worry about every little thing throughout the entire pregnancy aren't we? lol
I haven't got my MW appointment yet but I have heard a few ladies sya that the booking in visit is at home.

take care everyone xx

Hello all!

Sorry for not checking in all weekend but it has been a busy one, poor hubby has got 'man flu' so feeling very sorry for himself at home today, wish I was there, I am shattered!

The bloat is awful isn't it? I am struggling with my jeans etc! I cant bear to get on the scales for fear of gaining over half a stone or something! My Mum told me if you try and gain around a stone it's easy to take that off afterwards, so I am hoping once the nausea subsides I will be able to eat healthier again as the only thing that works for me at the moment is carbs.

My midwife appointment is a week today, I am so excited!

I cannot wait to answer all the quesitons and learn all this new stuff, still waiting on a scan date though, hopefully I will find out this week when it will be.

Hubby said on the weekend that he thinks we should get another done before Xmas so we have some photos!

Hope everyone is doing ok and the MS is not too bad! xxx

 

[Beadette]

Hi girls,

got my midwife appointment tomorrow- so excited!!

I've been feeling a bit perkier for the last few days! More awake! But jeans don't fit anymore - bad times! Am soooooo bloated! x x x

 

[wannabubba#4]

Oh Beadette -how exciting your first MW appt -hope it all goes really well xx

nb are you going to pay for another scan if you dont have a scheduled one with NHS? I am sooo tempted lol -but to be honest, so want to know the sex of baby this time and am definately getting prepared for paying for a gender scan this time just incase baby is crossed legs at my 20 week scan or something lol. Maybe not but I cannot justify paying for 2 scans (prob me just being a bit mean lol)

Nothing from charmed anyone? I PM'd her a while abck but nothing. Oh I hope she is okay.

MilitaryMummy -when is your MW visiting? exciting stuff -I cant wait on mine,and I have done this three times before haha -still feel so excited this time too... and it has been a a while lol

Justmarried -hows things? I am so tired too, and have just phoned to resume back to work Omg how tired will I be then haha? I am tired doing practically nothing just now.

Anyway vomitting has stopped (fingers crossed; touch wood) Still nauseous at times but haven't actualy been sick in a couple of days -So hoping that this is it getting better xx

AAAArrghgh and only just over two weeks to Chrimbo ,and I have hardly bought anything OMG Panic Panic -have been too tired,sicky yukky feeling really to do much Chrimbo shopping. Now Panic time aarrghhh Better get my skates on now lol

Take care ladies xx

 

[nb1984]

Hello all!

I was going to wait until my scan but hubby has said he wants another before Christmas so we have a more up to date photo to show people, he hasn't mentioned it again so I might just wait and see what date they give me first!

They have said it would be the week between Xmas and New Year so I might call today and find out!

I seem to be getting my nausea still in the evenings, I can eat ok in the day but can't do a big evening meal, just eat little bits here and there!

I sent a PM to charmed as well but got nothing

[Beadette]

Hi girls! Had an excellent midwife appointment! I have done a thread about it in first tri! I loved it! And I've got my scan date for 30th December! Am so so excited!!! Xxxxxx

 

[wannabubba#4]

Beadette - that's lovelynews and I read the post in first tri too. And another Xmas -New Year scan date -turns out this is a great time to be in first tri lol -what a nice Xmas pressie; getting to see your lil baby for the first time.


Well my GP phoned yesterday -I have a UTI -which is prob why I have been feeling so crap,so starting my weeks course of antibiotics as of today.

Have a good day ladies -I need to pop out and see about getting some Crimbo presents; and its so cold and miserable out there -I really cannot be bothered today.

 

[nb1984]

Wana - so sorry to hear about your UTI, I hope it clears up quickly for you!

I was actually going to put a post in 1st tri myself as last night I was waking up pretty much every hour feeling desperate for the loo, my bladder would actually be hurting. I hadn't drunk anything from about 11pm so there was no reason for me to need to go. And when I did get up there was barely anything to wee!

I have had cystitis before, so I know what that burning pain was like and this wasn't at all...and all day today I have been fine, just going as normal, has anyone else had this at night time? Or have I just gone mad?! hahaha! xx

 

[wannabubba#4]

nb from what I have read -and believe me i have been reading loads of pregnancy stuff lol -that sounds pretty normal, getting up several times in the night to pee
-I have actually been worried cos I haven't been; and everywhere says that by 8-9 weeks that getting up in the night to pee is expected cos uterus is presing down on the bladder by now; so why is mine NOT iykwim?? lol -Total worry-wort these days lol -so cant wait to see him'her and be reassured thats all going well.

p.s especially with me having a confirmed UTI -I have no urinary symptoms at all -mmmmm-v strange !!

xx

That is weird as whenever I had a UTI I either had a burning pain when I went for a wee, or frequent weeing all the time, but I guess it could be a different type! Any UTI usually means your white blood cell count is higher than usual, its why I got referred to a gyno before we started TTC as my white blood cell count was always high, it turned out to be me not producing enough oestrogen so he said we might find it hard to conceive, and here we are 3 months of TTC!

 

[MilitaryMummy]

Hey ladies.... Beadetter glad you're midwife appointment went well. I had mine yesterday and have been put 5 days further ahead than what i thought i was lol. I'm glad you got you're scan date. I don't have a clue when mine will be but she said she'll send off for it asap hehe.
SO EXCITED.
Wanna - you're not the only one that doesn't get up during the night to pee, i don't seem to be either, but i do have to sprint to the loo as soon as i wake up hehe.
Hope everyone's well xxxx

 

[wannabubba#4]

Militarymummy -why/ how did your MW put your date forward? The reason i ask is because I have worked my EDD out from my LMP -which I thought all MW and Gp's do (they used to anyways lol -but its been a while lol) Did she work out yours on your LMP or change it due to ovualtion dates or something? I know I ov'd early as I was charting which would put me forward 6 days but reckoned I'd need a scan to alter my date any.

Glad it went well anyway.

I have my appt through as well Yay -I cannot believe how excited I am about an appointment lol. My booking in appt (also at home -what did she do/say if you dont mind me asking MM??) is on Monday morning; and my first actual clinic appt is on 5th Jan -with my first scan then too OMG I cant wait -baby should be 12 weeks exactly or 12+6d lol if my ovulation date changes things lol .

I really need to put this all to the back of my mind for a while and get on with crimbo cos its only 2 weeks to go and I haven't wrapped a thing lol.

xx

 

[nb1984]

Wana - when I saw my gyno for my scan he kept my EDD the same, and he said my measurements worked for that too, the only thing that can change it is your cycle length I think? But maybe your scan is what defines it?

I have my midwife appointment on Monday and my scan the 4th Jan, so only the day before you, I cannot wait!

My nausea really seems to be wearing off which is fab and my cravings are kicking in, I seem to be very definite about what I can and can't eat. I was craving tuna like mad at lunchtime and there were no sandwiches left in the supermarket, gutted!! So going to make some for tomorrow! Although by then I will probably hate it again !

It is nearly the weekend! Just got to get through my office party this weekend then I am on the home stretch to telling everyone!! x

 

[wannabubba#4]

mmmmmmm Tuna sandwiches -that is so what I want right now mmmmmmm
gotta go and make it now mmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[MilitaryMummy]

Hey wana.... you can ask as many questions as you want lol.
She done mine by LMP but got a different date than me? who know my scan (whenever it is) may possibly put it back or forward again as i have very irregular periods! lol.
She just asked lots of questions and filled out some forms and talked me through some stuff.
She told me i have to book in to the docs to get my blood tests done. Which are for all kinds of stuff haha. And she gave me a form to take to my scan when i recieve it.
It really did make things seem more real lol.
I don't really know what else to tell you. lol. xxxx
