Ms for me always got worse between weeks 10-13. When hcg is the highest. My nausea is super mild now and not even everyday. But i know its coming!

I know that feeling! I was due with my DD at the end of August, and I was the very last one to have my baby in the group..in September, because I went 12 days over!
 
My other 3 babies were all due in the middle so i had people before and behind me!
 
I'm with you Heather!!

I feel for all the nausea going on right now :hugs:

I can feel my tummy flipping a lot more now than a couple of days ago, but I wouldn't call it nausea yet. I foresee it getting me, though, and soon. :?
 
Heather I was due at the end of the month every time I was pregnant LOL. This time I'm due July 22nd. With my third baby I was one of the last to give birth in my month group and with my fourth baby, who arrived almost 5 weeks early, I was only the second to give birth. You never know. Baby could still make an early entrance and surprise everyone ;)
 
Today was my worst day with nausea and a headache so far. Thankfully still got to the gym early this morning before it all kicked in.

I also had a doctor appointment to get my referral sent off to the midwife clinic. I will be waiting now for them to contact me with my first appointnent date :) I also got a referral for my 12w scan. I will call tomorrow and make an appointment. I also think DH and I have decided to get the NIPT/Harmony test too. Anyone else?

I just went shopping for a friend's baby shower this weekend. Oh it made me SO excited for my own baby :baby:
 
Buffy we will be getting the harmony test too, just for our own knowledge if we need to expect any disabilities or abnormalities. My next appointment and ultrasound is next Thursday (I'll be 7w4d and I'm dying to see this baby! Then my harmony test will be done at 10 weeks and I'll have another ultrasound at 12 weeks so I have a few more appointments before the new year!
 
Harmony test costs $400 here, so I will wait until after my 12w scan to get it. Id hate to pay that money and then get to 12w and have no HB or something like that.
 
I’d never even heard of the harmony test lol

If anything costs money when we’d get it free i.e like gender scan, 12 week etc he will wait until those :haha: where as I would pay for a reassurance scan but with this sickness there’s really no need! I’m literally dying. Had to half jog back from the school run today to stick my head over the bog :haha: having some prawn cocktail crisps and so far they are working!
 
Had my first true craving last night. Driving home from a long day at work, it's almost 10pm, I had bought some groceries after work to prepare for thanksgiving tomorrow and all of a sudden I HAD to have a cheap Totino's Party pizza like my life depended on it. I pulled into the closest grocery store and bought 3 (2 for future use). I had been starving and nauseated all day, but I scarfed down every bite of that pizza. I may have my first bout of reflux this morning.
 
That's funny texmel! What the bump wants the bump gets ;)

Sorry some of you guys are having migraines too! I absolutely despise them. Just got over one that lasted 2 days, including all night. Every time I got up to nurse DD my head was throbbing :(

I just called my OB to schedule my 8 week appointment and the secretary... ugh. She asked when my last period was and I told her September, but I ovulated late so I am guessing I'm about 6 weeks. She then proceeded to inform me that I'm 9 weeks.
-eye roll- I think I know my body best, don't you?
 
buffy: we are planning to have the testing as well

texmel, that sounds intense. But good thinking getting extra ;)

livvy: I feel you on that. It's frustrating when they don't trust you, even though you're sure of what your body is doing.

I find this thread so comforting. I've been having headaches as well, and last night I caved and took a couple tylenol. Knowing that others ladies are going through the same thing is comforting, since it tells me that my body is doing what it's supposed to do.
 
7w and feeling miserable! Both nauseous and (sorry tmi) my bowels are not pleased with me. Probably the lack of vegetables since I can hardly stomach anything besides carbs. Ugh. Called in to work again, I can’t keep that up but I also can’t stomach the idea of work when I feel on the edge of vomiting all the time and dizzy. Blah.
 
Also i find it funny how in every pregnancy app/ticker my baby is a different size lol. A tic tac, a chickpea, a blueberry and a wee raspberry (a wee one!) are the variations I have this week. Yes i have a lot of apps!!
 
Funny thing is that I feel so guilty about the pizza because my husband is doing a super low carb diet and he's being so good on it! I started it with him, but now can't stand most of the foods he is eating, so i am now like all carbs all day. In the past, he totally would have devoured a pizza with me, but now I feel like I am kind of rubbing it in his face. :haha::dohh:
 
Finding it hard to keep up with this thread! I've had a read through now though :thumbup:

Sorry you ladies that have terrible morning sickness or nausea- nothing worse than feeling like that but still being expected to continue on with our normal busy days!

So far, no sickness or nausea for me but I am coming down with a horrible cold which is making me feel super yuck :growlmad: hoping it passes soon!

What's this harmony test? I don't think they do that in the UK.
 
They do the Harmony test in the UK..it just might be called something else. It is a blood test to detect any chromosomal abnormalities. So the 12w scan tests the Nuchal Fold so you can check for Down Syndrome, but this relatively new-ish Harmony Test checks for the Trisomys etc, and also gender of baby :)

I ate an entire block of fruit and nut chocolate after dinner last night. I feel sooo hungover, which automatically makes me want to just eat crap.

I had to take some medicine yesterday for my headache. I couldn't handle it anymore.
 
Doctors appointment in less than 2 hours. So excited and now getting a little nervous. I've had some strange abdominal pains today. Hoping it is nothing. Fx
 
Good luck texmel!

Sorry you feel so terrible alli!

Buffy, I've medicated a couple times too. We have to survive somehow..
