Hey I am Back after a year!!

[Lauraaraa]

Hello! some of you lovly ladies might remember me or you might not!

i am back a year after my m/c, was a very sad time for me.

but a lot has changed and i am now 5weeks pregnant!!

so happy, really am, wasnt planned which makes it more special to me, i am with a new partner and so much more happier.

i did have bulimia bad last time - i look back now and cant believe how i was, i have sorted that now and not longer do it, i eat and i am happy.
no longer obsessed with my body shape etc etc.

now all i want to do is get to the 12/13 week mark - i will feel so much more at ease then!!
i do feel alot more relaxed - not sure if i am detaching myself from the pregnancy after what happened the first time i was pregnant or if i am just more relaxed in general now!! who knows!! either way i am happy!!

i have a few questions tho!!

is it safe to have sex when this early on in pregnancy - like are there any positions you shouldnt be having sex in?! i read alsorts on google - i just end up stopping reading it because some scares me to much!!

i am going to th doctors on monday, have had 2 positive superdrug tests, a positive cheapy one from savers and yesterday i got a clearblue digi and it says - Pregnant 2-3 weeks!!! yeaaay!
i think i am meant to go to the docs though beofre the 12 weeks because of miscarrying before? is this right?

also i havent been going to the gym because i am with my partner - he is on leave at th minute - but i was goin to go tomorrow or monday as i am back home then - is it ok to do the cross trainer (30mins) and the bike (30mins) this is all i do now - i stopped doing the weights a few months ago! relaxed what i do at th gym as was sick of worknig myself into the ground for nothing really! was madness!!

so i am due on 5th may 2011 all being well (and i hope all is very very welllll)

congrats to all of you in first trimester

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww welcome back and tons of congratulations to you.

Definately go to yours docs asap. This will not only get you in the system but they can arrange midwife appointmenst etc. also as you had a previous MC they may want to keep a closer eye on you (think this can vary but hey might as well get as much help as you can)

As for sex hmmmmm my doc seemed to think it was just fine but I would check with yours, am sure its fine tho.

Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months and come on over to the may muumie threads too

hugs n hugs

i remember you you was in 1st tri the same time as me

fingers crossed for a sticky bean

best thing to do my midwife said is relax and take it easy how about swapping the gym for a nice walk and some yoga? x

I'm also due May 5th 2011 !! So happy for you after what sounds like a difficult journey, but this will be worth it.

My doc wanted me to cut my cardio down to 45 minutes a day and to not get overheated until my 1st docs appt (Sept 16) to ensure everything looks good before going back to my regular routine.

Keep us up to date

Congrats on your bfp, and your success over bulimia, that is a major victory!
Sex is safe during pregnancy, although you might not want to be as rough lol, i personally have no interest in sex till I'm in the 2nd trimester...just hormones I guess...i think they have special classes for pregnant women at gyms, like pregnancy yoga, etc...once you get further along, you may not feel very well, like you may get sick, or tired, and or dizzy...so take it slowly and just listen to your body. Welcome to 1st Tri!!!

Congratulations!

I'm due May 2nd

It's fine to have sex as long as you don't have any medical problems or bleeding but you might just prefer not to for peace of mind.

Also as for the gym just take it easy. Don't get too hot or let your heatrate get too high as the baby can't regulate it's boday temperature and it's not good for you to get too hot.

And as for the doctors you should go before 12 weeks whether you've had a miscarriage or not. They need to get you to see the midwife for a booking in appointment which can be anytime from 5 - 12 weeks. Also they might want to confirm the pregnancy and they need to get you in the system so you get a 12 week scan date.

Just out of interest if you don't mind where are you in South West?

Firstly congrats on your BFP!!

And well done on beating bullmia.

Also you need to go the doctors ASAP really! Get your folic acid and your doctor will either rearrange your midwife appointment or pass your number on (my doctor passed my number on)

Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months! xx
