Are you measuring behind?

Not sure who you were asking that to, but I am also measuring behind 2 days. Measured at 6w3d and by my calculations was 6w5d. Apparently the measurments are only accurate within 4 days.

Lemon helps my ms too! And mandarin oranges. Anything citrus is like instant relief to me.

I just realised we posted the same time! I was asking Mellie.

Fanta lemon helps ms here! Just went and brought more today.

Oh I'm gonna try some lemon related stuff!! I found some ginger tea bags so have those for today

Tonight I was eating a cheese stick... Spied the peanut butter on the table and without another thought started putting it ON my cheese stick! My youngest daughter looked at me for a second and I shrugged my shoulders... She said "don't worry mom I won't tell anybody it's ok" that my friends is the weirdest thing I have eaten in any pregnancy thus far!

Mines apple, grapes and melon covered in natural yoghurt! Not as exciting but delicious!!!!!

I did something odd too at 7 weeks. Put two chocolate buttons between two plain salted Pringles and ate them. At the moment, my favourite things are sweet full sugar/fat lemonade and really really really sharp salty and vinegary crisps!

Sickness has eased slightly the last few days and I'm hungrier, which is a relief as I've barely eaten properly since I got my BFP. Still have some pretty intense bouts of nausea but I'm functioning just a little better now. I'm managing to cook a dinner the last few nights. A couple of weeks ago I never could have! So hope I'm just starting to be on the home stretch now 2nd tri is on its way to me.

Melli your scan pic is adorable. So happy all is well.

And Miss Bellum, thank you! I hope you're feeling well too.

I had a very scary bleed yesterday. Baby was fine, no sign of an SCH, and my OB said it was too early to see previa.

Now I'm waiting to see maternal fetal medicine consultants tomorrow to see if they can find the source of the bleed. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this kind of thing. My OB is stumped, and I'm basically scared to go to the bathroom right now because I'm afraid I'll see blood when I wipe.

Tomorrow is my scan! Eek. Haven't heard the heart beat yet so of course I'm scared that they will be like there's no baby or something equally awful. Its going to be a long 24 hours... Hopefully by this time tomorrow I'll have good news and can breath a sigh of relief!

When I was pregnant with my son I craved that awful squeeze cheese on apples. It was so good at the time! I usually hate fake cheese but it was yummy.

This baby hates italian food of any shape our form. I can only manage raw veggies. At least it's healthy!

Thinking about you, wantsalittle1! I hope the doctor can give you some reassurance

My back started bothering my Sunday. The doctor said it is a classic back strain. It is going away and flaring up intermittently. I sure hope it is just a temporary back strain and not something that is going to persist as my pelvis adjusts itself.

I'm so looking forward to Monday. I think I'll be a lot more calm about the sustainability of my pregnancy after I get a good picture of my little one nestled in.

I just wanted to reply that I hope everything is okay...unfortunately I hv only had spotting with both my pregnancies but at 6 weeks and it stops. I hope u can find out soon what is going on. My thoughts are with u!!

 

[Cowgirl07]

I've bled once a week or so and spotted in between I have a SCH. it could be a irritated cervix or something simple.

Can I join? Got a super fast, dark BFP on November 19. I haven't been to the doctor's office yet. Was going on Friday, but the receptionist unfortunately wrote down the wrong type of appointment, and now it's been rescheduled for next Tuesday. Cautiously, optimistically PG, as I'm older, had a MC in May, and wasn't trying for this one. Due date is estimated at 7/24.

Welcome

Welcome, Nikki!

I'm so sorry wantsalittle1. I personally don't have experience but a friend of mine had a horrible bleed around 11 weeks. She said there was a lot of blood. They never found a cause and her son was born healthy! She thought for sure she had lost the baby. Hopefully this is nothing serious for you.

 

[wanna-b-mummy]

Little, please keep us posted. I am sure all is well I know many women who bled in pregnancy and with no explanation. One lady I know would bleed every month, as if she was still getting af. I am sure it was just a fluke, and sending lots of positive vibes to you.

 

[babydustcass]

I have seen on here it is so common to have small bleeds during pregnancy especially the first few months, i know my own sister had light spotting for months every time coinciding with when her AF would have been due. Its very scary but try to remain positive, I am sure everything will be ok


I have my scan this afternoon, so very nervous and anxious to see that everything is ok

 

[Hollynesss]

Do any of you ladies feel like you're sweating more? Especially in the underarms? I feel like I need to freshen my deodorant throughout the day!
