I woke up this morning with the bloat bump, I went to Walmart and a lady said, ahhh, how far along are you? I said, 6 weeks....she said, wow....

I know you show earlier with the second, but this is all bloat! Lol I can't button my pants, I'm back in my maternity dress....other than the bloat and constipation/gas...I have absolutely no symptoms yet at all, which is a bit odd as I was puking my guts up by now with Esmé...have my first appointment in a week...just hoping everything is ok!

Hi everyone, I am new to the forum, but thought this was a great community for me to get involved with! =) I found out 2.5 weeks ago that I was pregnant (first pregnancy, i am 29 yrs old) through HPTs, and have my first doctors appt next Tues! I should be around 7 weeks and 4 days then, EDD March 15th!
I've been worrying myself sick lately though because i do not feel pregnant at all! the only one symptom i had was sore boobs which lasted about a week only and disappeared completely 2 weeks ago. Other than that... nothing! No sickness, no cravings, no anything... =(

The OB doctors here wont see me until i am between 7 and 8 weeks, so that they can use the ultrasound. I am wondering if i should have gone to seen a doctor earlier now just for blood tests...


ahh..!
hope everything goes well next week.

Hi Ladies

Had a bit of a funny couple of days.
So, as most of us seem to be suffering, I have some very uncomfortable bloating (in the evening especially) and diarrhoea (in the morning, a few times). Thsi has been getting worse over the last few days.
Yesterday, after lunch, at work, I started to feel very uncomfortable, really painful actually, I could not stand up straight. I ended up spending a fair bit of time on the loo (sorry if TMI ) and laying on the (nice cool) floor for a bit in a cold sweat.
When I started to feel a little better I went back to my desk and said I was going to head home, except I was not really ready and proceeded to sweat profusely, go a terrible colour,have tingling hands and fingers and almost pass out. Great. My Boss already knew and now I had to tell the First Aid person too.
Anyway, they would not let me drive home but paid for me to go home in a taxi - its an hours drive and cost £120!!! Bless em.

Lucky for me I already had an appointment with the Doctor booked for the same day so off a went and she was lovely. I cried a bit but she was very understanding. I light of our last pregnancy she is getting a scan for us THIS WEEK!! Hurrah! and she insisted I stay home today (shame).

I am feeling a bit better, not so bloated, but I realise I need to eat differently. Little and often, and careful WHAT I eat too (no more white bread & pasta).

So I am working from home, waiting for the Doctors office to call to let me know when the scan appointment is - but she promised THIS WEEK. In a few days I will either very happy or very sad - I am quite scared and stressed about it.

Sorry for the long one - it just after a MMC at 12 weeks and Chemical pregnancy I really am desperate for this pregnancy to stick...

Just wanted to say best of luck to all of you and thanks for the support and advice. My scan didn't go well today (would have been 8 wks tomorrow). Blighted ovum. I'll leave it at that. I know how hard it is to read these kinds of posts. Happy and healthy pregnancies girls. Much love. Bec. Xx

Oh I am SO sorry, went through the same at 12weeks last year. So painful, take care. Huge hugs xxx

My edd is the same and i have nasty cramps as well

Hey Everyone,

I am a newbie to the site, as this will be my first child. I am kind of nervous and don't know what to expect. Glad to see so many others in the same position. I am currently 5 weeks pregnant, and my due date is March 26, 2013.

I have two questions:
1. When should I tell work that I am pregnant? How many weeks?
2. I am having a lot of cramps, but no blood.is this normal?

 

[trying2becalm]

Excited and terrified!!

The hospital rang and I have scan on Friday morning! I will be 6+5

fingers and toes crossed hoping for a little bean on the screen with a heartbeat loud and strong.

Scared it will be an empty sac again

Funny little story for today. Oh went to cook some bacon before work he went the fridge and it was gone.. When he asked me about it I told him I went to make myself some it smelt bad so I threw it all out. Needless to say it wasn't bad he had just bought it oops!! So now I'm not allowed to throw anything out until he checks it first

Does anyone know if there's any acne medications that are safe during pregnancy? My face has been breaking out like crazy since I got my BFP

You can use one with benzoyle peroxide, just don't use one with saliclyic acid.

I really don't know but would ask a Dr first...my face has the same issue it is all the extra hormones...although never did this for my first...in fact with her my skin and nails and hair were awesome! Each pregnancy is different I am told.

 

[electrcaldiva]
