MARCH-MALLOWS 2020

I could not have written this post any differently. I feel the exact same! I thought i was just being a fatty!! For me too with the ready salted crisps!! 8am on the train to work haha!! I haven’t actually thrown up yet either. How far along are you? Im 6+3 according to my app. (My ticker is wrong)

I have my early scan tomorrow and ive got such anxiety today about it!! I was nearly in tears earlier. Ill only be 6+4 xx

Good luck today! I'm sure you'll be grand and will feel much better after seeing your little bean. What time is your scan? I'm 6+2 today. Nausea wasn't bad from yesterday afternoon but I'm not sure if that is because I kept snacking. Feel fine this morning as well. Getting a bit worried as I think it is easing off which has never happened to me. My scan is in 4 weeks 4 days so I've a bit to go. Let us know how you get on!
 
My booking app went fine, I told her my symptoms had reduced and she didn’t seem concerned at all, I also mentioned to her how i feel a bit disconnected from this pregnancy and she said I would probably feel better after the 12 week scan after I’ve seen the baby.

I’m thinking of booking a private scan for this Sunday and then telling close family, I let slip and told my eldest daughter so it’s only a matter of time she spills the beans!

Jam- good luck with the scan x

Gemma - that’s geaat you got to hear the HB on the Doppler
We got pregnant on the first try this time and I'm the same, I feel a bit out of it. I keep thinking it's too good to be true so something bad might happen and if I detach myself from it then I won't be as upset. But then there are days that I find myself talking to the baby in my head. It's a confusing and frustrating time for sure! It doens't help that some days I feel pregnant and some days I don't. Day by day it's getting better though.
 
Does anyone have a gut feeling on their baby's gender? I'm not sure if I trust mine. We didn't find out with dd1 but I was convinced she was a boy. That's because there are so many in both of our families that I just assumed I would have all boys. I always said I'd be blessed with boys. I have two daughters lol. With DD2 I didn't allow myself to have a gut feeling as I was so wrong the first time. We found out her gender at the 20 week scan. This time we are going to find out again (if baby co-operates!) I keep saying it's probably a girl but deep down I keep thinking boy. Not sure if that is because after two girls a boy would be a lovely change of pace. Obviously a healthy baby is all that is important but I'm just curious if any of you have a feeling or have been right in the past with your gut feeling?

I have a gut feeling im going to have a girl but not sure if thats cause thats what i want lol. With my son i had a gut feeling he was a boy but tht was from about 20wks+ But i also thought i would have a boy first then a girl. My hospital dont tell you the gender and back then i couldnt afford a private plus 7yrs ago there wasnt alot of private clinics nearby. We will definitely go private this time though, my OH wants to do the whole balloon popping thing etc lol

Yeah it's hard to tell the difference between what you want and what you feel. We had a boys name picked out a year before we started trying for our first so I would love to finally get to meet him. But my girls are amazing so I know another girl would be a perfect addition to the family. I tried to talk to some of my friends about it at the weekend. I just got told to stop and just be grateful. Neither have kids so it really frustrated me that they weren't willing to listen or understand. I'm completely grateful but it's ok to wonder or to say I'd love a boy or girl. It doesn't mean you won't love your child. I just can't wait to see if my gut feeling is right this time around :-k
 
I had a gut feeling with all mine. With my first she was a boy initially. Then someone announced they were having a boy and I said that was where the feelings were coming from and mine was a girl. I was right. With my son I bought a load of boys socks early on coz I felt it was a boy and I was right. With my 3rd I just knew she was going to be a girl. I’m torn at the moment. My gut says boy but I’m not fully decided what my gut says yet. We’re having a private gender scan around 16 weeks xx
 
Well i went to doctors today ladies & got anti sickness tablets so far they are workin but im stil really tired which doesnt help when a side effect is tiredness frm the tablets aswell
That's the bad part of it. I can't even hold conversations, feel like a zombie but I'd take that over vomitting constantly. I'm on the max dose now but still have nausea some days. Today is being quite bad considering I'm on meds and eating is not settling it.


I took this bloat picture yesterday morning, I don't usually have a belly, and in the evening is sooo much worse.

Wow that is accurate! Can your gut to get a sense of what I'm having?! :winkwink: I've never had a private scan but I'm so tempted to this time. Think DH will only be open to it if we can't find out the gender at the 20 week scan. I was hoping to guess by the nub theory at 12+ scan but the hospital scheduled mine for when I'm 10+6 so that's out. I might look at my old 12 week scan pictures and see if the theories hold any weight for me. Anything to pass the time lol

Thanks lovely. Im so nervous. And keep thinking that they wont see anything! Its not till 6:30pm tonight!! I have found that constant snacking is keeping the nausea away! But then im going to be the size of a house!! Im not exactly small anyways. Im a good size 12/ small 14! Xx
 
My gut is telling me girl but then again I think it’s because I was told I would have a girl! I’ll find out hopefully in five weeks. My sister should know a week after my harmony results so will be exciting to see if it is! We are letting the kids do the gender reveal with all our family here x
 
So here it is. Our little blob. Everything as it should be. Saw heartbeat on the screen. Xxx

Yaaay glad everything went well Jam :)

Hopefully get my booking appointment through tmorro been trying to phone all week so resorted to emailin thm n they sent me a form to fill in and send bk
 
So I was definitely too quick off the mark worrying about my nausea going. It came back with a vengence yesterday evening and has been awful ever since. I was awake for 2 hours during the night it was that bad. Then I was finally sick which made it a little better so I could sleep. Today has been awful. All I've managed to eat is toast or crackers and neither are helping. Ginger nut biscuits & ready salted crisps aren't working. Just wish I could lie down and sleep more .

Had my scan earlier, all went well. Dates are correct and little heart beat flickering away.

I’ve been so anxious about telling family we decided to just get it over with and tell them, they were shocked but all ok.

Brilliant scan photo Lilyfleur. So glad it went well x

Awww so cute!! So we were planning on waiting till 10 weeks to tell family but i just dont think we can wait that long. My one SIL is already convinced im pregnant. Obviously she’s correct but ive tried sayin ‘oh noo. I came on today thats why im so bloated’. Horrible to say that i came on my period as thats my worse nightmare atm!!

I just don’t know how we are going to hide it all much longer. With no drinking or vaping for me.
