Anyone not that hungry? I know I need to eat and I feel a bit hungry but don't want to eat anything. Not necessarily due to nausea or ms but just not in the mood to eat. Nothing sounds appetizing minus some Steak n Shake now that I think about it. Yummmm. Too bad it's not that close.

I'm pretty much the opposite, I am starving all day!! Mind you that's not really a change for me ha ha!

argh! I want it to be the weekend already.. So bored of this week. I wanna go to the doctor and make sure everything is ok with my little bubba... although I know the doc wont do anything except refer me to a midwife... these first few weeks are the hardest to get through... Im sure of it!

Time does seem to be dragging! I woke up today sure it was Thursday, but its not, its only Wednesday!

I am also starving! Still. I have been eating so much more! My sister said to me today that there's no way I can hide this, she said it looks like I've lost weight everywhere but gained heaps in my belly! Nice aye and I'd believe her too. Ive been wearing skirts the past week and stretchy workout pants for comfort and today I put on my dress pants and they didn't fit round the waist and I had to do the hair tie trick. Which I had never tried before but it works a charm!

 

[zephyr]

no matter how much I eat and drink I still can't shake this terrible hollow hungry feeling

 

[ClaireRSA]

I'm also not hungry... very odd for me!

Are there any other ladies on Progesterone?

Hey here is my scan im 5 half weeks and i go back on the 28th for baby heart beat im soo happy. I had a private scan booked but there no point now. So glad everything is ok x

What a lovely picture!! Did you get this from the NHS or private? xoxo

Its NHS but I did pay for a private one, it was only £50 and that was for next Monday but as they want to see me again on 28th to see heart beat I wont bother going x

How did you get an early scan? I can't wait for mine, got over a month to wait xx

Girls, I need some advice. I'm going to email my dad tonight to tell him Im pregnant because I just want this whole thing out in the open. After the awful reaction from my mum, I just want to get it all over with. My mum is still not talking to me! My folks got divorced 21 years ago and they dont speak to each other. My dad still lives in Botswana so I hardly see him but we are really close. I know he's going to go mad at me but I have to get this out the way! I though my mum was going to be a bit better than this, but obviously not. She's got alot of issues and I guess shes holding it all against me like she has done my whole life. Im hoping my dad is going to be better than my mum, but I highly doubt it!

So anyway... after my rant, what do you think I should put in the email?!

 

[ClaireRSA]

Hi Anti

Just keep it as simple and to the point as you can. Also, your e-mail should sound happy...then your dad can see that this is good news that you are sharing with him! and then, i suppose, what will be will be.

 

[anti]

Thanks Claire, I've typed something up and will let oh have a read before I send it. So nervous... My dad is a proper old fashioned Afrikaans guy, so I could be in for it! but anyway... I got bigger things on my plate to worry about!

Work has been absolutely rubbish and today they've brought a new thing in where we have to document everything we do all day on a spreadsheet... down to taking a wee! and how long each process takes us. I wish I could leave now but I really need the money! all good things come to those who wait!

Hey everyone, hope you are all well

I'm sooo tired today, woke up at 5am and couldn't get back to sleep! Although I keep saying give me all the symptoms you want as long as I get a healthy baby out of this I really don't mind hee hee.

I've got my first appointment on 4th October so a few weeks wait yet. If I want an early scan I'm allowed one as I did have a mmc in January, still undecided what to do though...I think I may just wait it out until 12 weeks.

 

[ClaireRSA]

lol, I have also been filling in my timesheets today...paiiinful!!

Sterkte with your dad maybe it will all turn out better than you think...xxx

 

[RBurnett]

I was having pains so i went to DR and she orded me a scan that same day, was lovley seeing my lil bean and when i go next ill see heart beat.. why not pay for a private scan x

Aw, exactly! What were your pains like? Did she think it may be ectopic? I'm glad it all went well! xoxo

Finally have a day off work today after working 6 straight and then tomorrow at 8am I have my first appointment!!!! I'm hoping for a scan, since it's an earlier-than-normal appt due to my losses. So excited and terrified at the same time. Anyone else here have their first appt tomorrow?

Anti - Good luck with the email to your dad! My mom took it better than I thought, she's telling my stepdad tomorrow and his reaction I'm worried about. My dad won't take it so well either which is why I'm holding off on telling him.

Good morning everyone...

how are you all feeling today?

One thing I hate about pregnancy is to have a lot of food in the morning. I was never a person who can eat a lot in the morning. I am lucky enough to have my tea and one whole wheat bread with strawberry jam. lol

Who is really annoyed by the bloating? I know it is just bloating but it takes its time to go away. In the morning I have my normal tummy back but then during the day when I eat more and more it bloats again. argh! lol

 

[anti]

thanks wavescrashove - after how bad my mum took it im just going to bite the bullet and tell my dad and step mum so I can get this all over and done with! My first appointment is only next thursday and it cant come quick enough!! I wanna know my bean is ok. I been getting strange pains in my chest and belly so getting a bit worried. I know everything is ok though. It has to be!

janine0187 - I have major bloating as well but mine never goes down!! so frustrating! but it makes me feel pregnant... im a bit sad like that. Really looking forward to having a proper baby bump!

 

[janine0187]

@anti - I know what you mean. I am looking forward to the REAL bump but all this bloating can go away. I want to look slim until real bump comes. lol

 

[anti]

I know what you mean!

 

[freddie]

Argh I am so so so so so so so so tired!! I want to sleep soooooooo much!!!! Anyone else?!
