March Munchkins 2017 - calling all March Mummy's to be:)

[kmpreston]

All good at mine too but put me back to 6weeks5 days which i also expected as I thought I ovulated day 16 not 14. So new EDD is 29th March

 

[hhimayy]

Great scans everyone!

So doc is making me buy a more supportive sports bra for my chest pain. I do not know if I feel like that will help but worth a try. My pain comes on mostly after eating which makes me feel like it's not a muscle/breast issue but if it is that's a lot better than heart or gallbladder issues.

Mrs. Tigger so glad your first appointment and scan went well, it's amazing seeing those little heartbeats. It can be worrying and miscarriage does seem more on here but it's only because on places like this people feel safer to talk or may not open up in real life. Plus a lot of ladies here find these forums after a loss. It is scary x



Button so glad your scan went well x

Kmpreston yay glad your scan went well too x


Hhimayy I guess it's worth a try and they'll come in handy as boobs do get more heavy and sore x

My scan was also great, baby was so cute waving his little hand around. I was so convinced it was bad news, so much I didn't let my OH come woth me. I feel so bad now I pushed him away and then he missed seeing baby again. I really thought we'd lost baby though. Now also they cancelled my original dating scan next week as they could date me today so he won't even get that. Think I'm going to book a private scan to make it up to him. Baby is measuring bigger at 10+4 but I sure I didn't ovulate until later than that.



Also as I missed quite a bit on here last week so could anyone new please check I've added them to the first page, don't want anyone missed out

[SweetV]

That's amazing that everybody had great scans!

Afm - I'm on vacation and really feeling the fatigue and gross and bloated. Home on Wednesday and will get properly caught up.

 

[kmpreston]

Morning sickness started properly this morning rather than just feeling nauseous I was properly sick hope it sticks to just the morning and just the once and doesn't start being all day every day!

Hey everyone hope all is well. Had my first MW appointment today, should get my 12 week scan date through in the next 2 weeks. Everything is ok, minus getting awful headaches lately.

How's things with everyone?

Also that's great news taz!!!

Go to boots and buy the 4head rub - that thing is a life saver

I've got my booking in appointment through for 30th August and they will book my 12 weeks scan then

 

[sarah0108]

Never tried that before actually! I'll give it a try thank you! Paracetamol are barely touching it X

Honestly it's the most amazing thing I've ever found, gets rid of my migraines within an hour and safe in pregnancy. You just rub it onto any bit of your head that hurts (though I recommend avoiding along your cheekbone/eye socket unless you can have your eye closed for a fair while - the vapour doesn't half sting the eyes!)

 

[hhimayy]

Taz such a great pic of your little one! Are you still trying your doppler? I think I might try again today but still haven't found it.


So I'm convince my chest pain is not just my boobs growing. I cut out all fat from my breakfast this morning with no pain. Had a hot chocolate and the pain returned slightly. Very very low fat for lunch and no pain so far. Guess I am just going to stay away from as much fat as possible til my next appointment and hopefully doc will have some answers. I read that progesterone can increase gallbladder issues so I really hoping it is just that.

I feel like i am turning into a hypochondriac but I'm truly having the pain.

 

[PrincessTaz]

Hhimayy I've put that doppler away and it isn't coming back out for at least another 6 weeks lol. We here baby was is exactly where I'd been trying and nothing at all. I don't want to worry myself again x

 

[hhimayy]

Yeah I tried yesterday and nothing so I'm going to stop.

I also stopped my progesterone as I'm nearing 11 weeks and the placenta should have taken over or will soon and I have a feeling it is contributing to my chest pains.

I can't ever seem to get enough sleep. The struggle was real getting up for work this morning.

 

[hhimayy]

Told myself after my next ultrasound as long as everything looks good we will start prepping for baby.

That means only 12 days and I think I'll start getting super excited. Gotta prep cloth diapers, finish the basement so we can turn husband's office into baby room. Decide on carseats, do we get all in one's or infant carriers. Splurge on a new carrier, wanting to try ring slings. So much more.

Luckily I asked for gender neutral things with my daughter so we already have pack n play and swing.

Hi ladies.
Taz: great news that baby is doing well.

I'm still feeling rubbish. I feel nauseous most of the day but haven't actually been sick. I get like 10 seconds when I wake up in a morning and then the nausea makes itself known. I'm soooo hungry though, like all day. The foods I can tolerate changes daily but my stomach feels empty so quickly after eating. I'm going to put on so much weight at this rate

Midwife tomorrow for booking app.

Measuring 7 wks 6 days, saw a heartbeat. My sweet little jellybean

I'm being referred to a specialist for high blood pressure, my bp has been higher then they'd like to see last week and this week and I had pregnancy related hypertension with my son, so they want to be cautious

 

[MiBabyHopes]

Taz - so happy to hear all is going well for you and the pic is lovely!

hhimayy - if the low to no fat diet is helping why not give it a try and see what the dr thinks next visit. glad to hear you have found some relief!

oxygen - that stinks! i know that some ladies feel nauseous because their tummies are empty, so maybe try eating small amounts of whatever food you can keep down very often throughout the day, it may help with nausea and feeling hungry. when i had gd with my ds that is what i had to do to control it, thankfully it was diet controlled and no insulin was needed!

miranda - glad to hear you lo is doing well and hopefully their cautiousness is unneeded but still better safe than sorry, you definitely don't want preeclampsia (however you spell it)

afm - my first ob appointment is tom so looking forward to that and hoping she uses the doppler and all goes well. i so want to hear a heartbeat and see my growing lo tom. a little nervous as this is about the same time week wise that we had our mc the first time i was pg but trying not to think about it.

 

[TattyHead]

Hhimayy, it sounds like you could have acid reflux..low fat diet normally helps, you can get some serious chest pain with it might be worth a doctor's visit to see if you need some tablets to stop it.

These babies have a lot to answer for...!!

 

[SweetV]

MiBabyHopes - good luck today!

mirandaprice - I hope your blood pressure stays under control!

Oxygen7880 - I'm going to put on weight too but I always feel so full and bloated yet still hungry!!

hhimayy - I agree the low fat diet sounds like a good idea if it's helping
