It seems here they have more nondrowsy nausea medications...I wouldn't of been able to function my last pregnancy without them!

Hope all you ladies still feeling nauseous can start getting some relief...Hopefully no more then a few more weeks

I'm having massive food aversions, and it's really random. I can see something I want, order it...then take a bite and be done with it. Totally turns my stomach trying to eat it. I've lost 6lbs this pregnancy so far, and I'd of thought since my nausea hasn't been bad that it'd of been the opposite. With my son I gained weight first tri even though I felt sick all the time.

Anyone else having massive food aversions?

I'm gunna have to day buying a doppler was the best thing I ever did - it's helped keep my anxiety down. It's like an instant relief to hear that heartbeat

Oh most def yes! They change daily but sometimes the smell of something just puts me right off. Crisps are a prime example. Before preg
I was a total crisp addict but since preg I am so off them.
I still crave junk food most days which is so annoying. I've put on weight first tri even though I've felt sick throughout. I was the same with my daughter though. I'm not overweight so it's not too bad but I would still rather not!

 

[Ellivort]

Excited to see some roundness. I'm overweight quite a bit and thought i might just look fat the whole time, but the baby suddenly moved upwards and now where the firmness is , there is a noticeable bump!

Glad to see most are doing well.

Sorry to hear some are still having nausea!

 

[TattyHead]

Oxygen I struggle with anxiety & was feeling on edge constantly from 5 weeks onwards but the sickness has eased a bit since just over 15 weeks & I'm starting to feel better emotionally. Hopefully you'll find the same. The nausea meds have been a God send for me though & I definitely still rely on them!

 

[PrincessTaz]

Miranda sorry you're still spotting, hope you managed to enjoy the zoo. I've had weird aversions too, literally my normal favourite foods I can not stand, it's odd. Also I love my doppler, think I'd of had some sort of breakdown without it.

Broodymrs I've started getting the aches and pains too, I'll think I'll be huge this time.

Oxygen sorry you're still feeling so rubbish, I really sorry hope you start to feel better soon. It's a bit crap the nausea medication makes you so drowsy!

Ellivort yay for your bump I'm overweight and I was so sad I was never gonna get a bump but finally seem to have one. I can't wait for it to be massive lol.

Tattyhead glad you've been feeling better.

Hi everyone!
My due date is March 15th!!! I have a bicornuate uterus, so the baby may come quite a bit early, but a girl can hope!

I have to say, ever since I've hit the second trimester my appetite has completely decreased. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Oh, and congrats to everyone, of course!!!

 

[bicornbump]

Just saw this questionnaire:

How old are you?
I'm 29

What's your EDD, how have you figured that date?
March 15th-Ultrasound

What # child is this for you?
#1

Do you predict you're carrying a boy or girl?
The boyfriend thinks it's a boy and my mom thinks it's a girl.
I have no feeling one way or the other! Just hoping for healthy!!!

Are you finding out the gender?
Yes, at the anatomy scan

How many months were you TTC?
Zero! I was told I couldn't get pregnant, so this is quite a surprise.

Are you on any meds to help support your pregnancy?
Just a prenatal and I also have to take an antibiotic throughout my entire pregnancy because I was hospitalized with a kidney infection at 9 weeks

 

[elliecain]

Welcome bicorn. I hope you have a beautifully uneventful rest of pregnancy.

 

[sarah0108]

So my gender scan was supposed to be today, we had it booked and paid for for a month now! Yet that cancelled last night

Luckily I've managed to book elsewhere for tomorrow but still frustrating when you've made childcare arrangements and work arrangements for them to cancel last min! Plus we were so excited. But hopefully tomorrow will go as planned

wow so many new mam's Congrats ladies

so sorry for the ladies that have headache or are feeling distress just think positive that in a week or so all will stop and you will enjoy having something else..a movement, a small or big bump or a scan to see a cute baby


as for the stretchmarks i use Bio oil its AMAZING and i suggest it ladies!! any time i feel a stretch or itching i massage it with bio oil and until now i have no stretchmarks or anything on my skin
fiancee calls it my magical bottle because i always have it with me

i just started to get used to the idea of a baby girl i was really disappointed but as long as its a healthy baby i don't care now... more shopping and things to buy for girls

and damn! i still miss Coffee !! Doc said no coffee or wine and not a lot of walking only 20min a day... soo i am taking it really easy but Damn! i want a Mocha Frappuccino coffee

Bicornbump welcome to the group and congratulations, I've added you to the list
Yeah I totally lost my appetite at the beginning and have only really got it back the last 2 weeks or so. I'm enjoying being able to eat normally again.

Sarah108 that's so annoying, I wouldn't be happy either! Glad you've managed to book another and don't have ages to wait.

Arrow hope you enjoy all the baby shopping, I'm so bored of buying whites and creams, I wish more stores did colourful unisex clothes.
I can cope without coffee but god I miss wine so much lol, I went out for an italian on Saturday night with my partner and friends and they were all drinking wine and being merry, I wanted to punch them lol
Bio-oil didn's stop me getting stretch marks but it definitely helped them fade really really fast.

Xx

PS for some reason the poll doesn't let me see who has voted for what so if those who know if they're or and I'll update the list

 

[sarah0108]

I just realised my post made zero sense lol!

I booked somewhere else straight away so thankfully we will be able to go after work tomorrow and found out what these little twinnies are!

Up until now I've thought boy/girl but some days I'm swinging towards boy/boy... Who knows!!

Team blue here Taz. Can you also change my due date to the 23rd please.

Man you must have felt so disappointed when they cancelled. Such short notice too. Who did you book with? I'm really glad you managed to get another sorted so soon. The same happened with me with my little girl. I had my 20 wk scan but couldn't believe I was having a girl so I booked a private one, only to be cancelled the day before. Luckily I also got one for the following day, although I had to travel quite a bit further. I just wanted to know for sure it was a girl. I was soooo happy when it was confirmed lol.
I can't wait to find out what the twins are! Let us know asap lol.

 

[sarah0108]

It's gutting isn't it!
Thanks I will be updating asap haha

I booked with the place we went to for our 8 week scan and got a discount so it all worked out well. But still found it very unprofessional of them to cancel like that. They offered another scan in a week and a half but I declined and just went elsewhere. Can't guarantee they won't cancel again!

I've got the midwife this morning so starting work a bit later, hoping to hear some heartbeats! Got some kidney pain today though so also hoping it's just nothing but we will see x

Did you click on the number? I could see them when I clicked on that link on the poll.
Maybe try this: https://babyandbump.momtastic.com/p...12345-pink-blue-yellow-colour-your-bumps.html

Anyway, I'm team pink!

 

[PrincessTaz]

ttc baby no2 thank you, that link worked, for some reason it doesn't work if I just click the numbers myself though xx

 

[mirandaprice]

Welcome bicorn!

This morning after not have much nausea and no throwing up for a few weeks...I vomited stomach acid. My throat still burns...but, I felt so much better afterwards, so I guess not the worst thing.

I think I finally found a way to control all this acne I've been having- diaper rash cream

 

[bicornbump]

I have a question for everyone.

How long did you wait (or are you waiting) to tell people you're pregnant?
I'm just about 16 weeks and we've only told our immediate family and couple of very close friends. We haven't even told our roommates (we're luckily moving into our house November 1st).
I think because I'm higher risk I'm even more nervous about telling people. I'm just convinced something is going to go wrong with my pregnancy.
