July Firecrackers 2018

Lilmiss don’t feel bad i have probably gained the same :( eating every hour, only carbs, being totally sedentary. It sucks but now that I am feeling better I’m eating better (still eating often but making healthier choices!! And not as often or as much as I was before) and I’m back at the gym. I’m trying to trust that my body is doing what it needs.
 
Yeah I think the major issue right now is that my stomach hurts worse when it's empty so I'm constantly snacking, and then it isn't always the best things because I can only tolerate certain foods. I think once the nausea goes away completely I can start focusing on eating healthier. How are you feeling now Alligator? Is your nausea still coming and going or is it gone for the most part?
 
I'm feeling a lot better. I have some moments of nausea, almost queasiness, but by and large I feel really good. I won't say 100% because if I chance it too long without eating I get a bit queasy, and I still have some food aversions, but night and day in terms of the all day debilitating nausea. So long as I eat regularly I'm good!
 
My nasuea just seems to still be getting worse...cant wait for it to end!
 
My nausea is finally getting a little better. I still can't eat like I used to be able to, but, I can at least eat more than once a day now and I feel hungry now whereas before I never felt hungry.
I've been losing weight, last time I was at the doctor I had lost 5 pounds but the doctors not concerned and said he wanted me to lose weight but I don't see how that's good for the baby.
 
Im actually still nauseous. Also getting headaches, which is a new "symptom" for me. So annoying.

Lilmiss - I have low iron this pregnancy and am taking supplements. I had low iron last time too, with a level of 8. Despite going to the gym every day, I have already gained quite a bit of weight also. I cannot stop eating, and the nausea is unbearable if I dont eat.

Welcome Chrissy + January. I have updated the front page.

Hey ladies. I just wanted to update that we went along to the first scan yesterday and all was looking well. I was surprised to be told baby is measuring 13weeks exactly since I had myself a week or more behind but that's great I've catapulted into 2nd tri lol. Will post a scan pic later on, but I have a due date now and it's July 19th! Still very sick here, but seeing baby has been a great boost and hopefully since I'm 13weeks now just a few more weeks of sickness (going by previous pregnancies). It's both my kids birthdays in the next week so that'll keep me busy too. Can someone please add me to the list of due dates I see there are a couple of ladies also due on the 19th, exciting! X
 
A week ahead, edd! That's the dream lol. Awesome. I hope you start to feel better soon!

I feel pretty gross this morning and I was having a great week and thought the nausea is gone but I think I might be coming down with something or just having an off day. Feeling blah and happy it's Friday...all I want to do is lay around and sleep all day.
 
I'm in the swing days now too. One day the nausea will be tolerable with hunger pains, the next day it'll be horrible and I won't have much of an appetite. Buffy I'm with you on the frequent headaches and they are annoying.

January that's great to hear!
 
12 week scan Monday can't wait to get a proper look and share my photo with you all
 
edd- we are due date buddies! I'm also due on 7/19.

Anyone else getting bad headaches lately? I thought that my lack of headaches in the first trimester was due to not drinking alcohol anymore but in the last week they have come back with full force. And of course we aren't supposed to take Advil and I don't want to take too much Tylenol so I'm basically just trying to suffer through them which sucks!
 
JWC I have only had a couple headaches and they weren't that bad. Have you tried caffeine? Some women claim it helps with headaches for them...Like a cup of coffee, well within the recommended daily limits. You could also try peppermint essential oil on your temples (just make sure you buy high quality stuff).
 
January - i have added you to the front page :flow: i also have 2 birthdays in the same week with my kiddies. They are both born in September, 6 days apart. Im so pleased to be having a baby in a different month this time haha.

Glong88 - your scan will be great. Look forward to seeing pics :flower:

JWC - i never got headaches in first tri, but have started getting them now. It is so so annoying. They wont go away no matter what I do. I just have to wait for them to go away.

Depending on your BMI with which you started your pregnancy, losing weight can definitely be OK.

If you begin with a lower BMI, you are expected to put on more weight.
 
Talking of babies born close together my boys are the 2nd and 3rd February haha! Glad this one will be a while after

Ha I have a cup of coffee every morning! Could not give that up and thankfully I didn't have to lol. I've considered looking into essential oils so I'll look into peppermint oil.
 
Yeah I have a cup of coffee daily too ha there's just no way I could function without it. I used to have 2-3 cups a day between coffee and tea, but I now have only one, and rarely have any on the weekends anymore.
 
I have a pepsi max every day! Ive never had coffee before. If I drink tea (gone off it a bit during this pregnancy) I drink decaf.
