PK yoga sounds like a great idea. I def want to keep exercising (once this horrid cough and cold go away) to avoid excessive weight gain. I am feeling like if it wasn't pregnant I would be going on a diet about now so I am worried about how heavy I will get. So far been eating healthy so just got to keep that up.

I slept awful last night! Couldn't fall asleep for some reason. Going to make for a long day today!
 
I am petrified of putting on weight!! I lost 2 stone recently and I don't want to put it back on! I will be watching the scale most definitely; and I plan on carrying on the gym until I can't but I won't be doing 2/3 hours a day, probably just 45/60 mins of cardio every other day!
 
MummytoAmber- Im worried about weight,mostly how doctors and midwives are going to treat me.With my first i was a slim size 14,and my weight was not mentioned once,i wasnt even weighed,i was only given a GTT at 37 weeks when they realised babies tummy was measuring big,but i passed that fine.
This time round i am a size 18.I agree that BMI isnt accurate but thats all they care about.Im absolutely dreading the comments,my self esteem isnt good anyway since putting on weight,i just want to be able to enjoy my pregnancy
:dust:
 
Just got back from my booking in appointment. Urine tests came back fine, they took my bloods etc and gave me a form for free prescriptions.

Now I just have to wait and see if I get a phone call tonight from OH’s mother, who works in the blood labs. I really really don’t want to tell people I’m pregnant until I’m 12 weeks but with her actually working in the blood labs, she might find out. Hopefully she will just keep it to herself if so. I know she can lose her job by breaching the confidentiality and that but… You never know.

Also, sick of people's unasked for advice already. Posted this ^ on my blog and had a response saying "You should tell your families. If something was to go wrong then you’ll want their support. Trust me"

How about do one! Do you know me? Do you know my family? Do you know if I would want their support? No! You don't know me at all. As a matter of fact I'd rather keep my losses to myself thank you very much!! I had enough horrible comments from IRL people after my first losses and don't want it again! Also the last thing I want is people knowing I miscarried, I don't want people ringing me up asking me if I'm okay or worrying about me! I don't need anything adding to the stress of having a miscarriage, least of all having to deal with other people being upset or worrying about me!!

I should KNOW what I'd want in the event of a miscarriage considering I've had 2 :mad:

No but it is 2 weeks to the day after my spotting started and it's slightly heavier spotting. I think it's hormones. Still getting very dark lines on hpts so carrying on as normal until my scan next week. My first pregnancy wasn't half as much trouble! I said to my mum that if this baby does make it it'd better be a good sleeper to make it up to me!

Sorry you're having this worry. Have you spoken to anyone? :hugs:

I spoke to EPAU and they said I could come in if I want to have another scan but OH can't get time off and it's a nightmare dragging LO to scans. I've decided to keep my original scan date of next week.

Saw the dr today and got referred to the midwives so that's got the ball rolling as they also sent off the form for my 12 week scan. He also said that the bleeding and cramps could be because -sorry tmi- I'm constipated so he's given me some lactulose.

Big hugs totally know what you mean. Im 16-18 at the moment.
You had any comments yet? Thankfully gp didnt say anything, im hoping for a lovely mw if not id seriously be considering a doula for some much needed mental support. x
 
I am also one of those who are concerned about weight gain. My weight has fluctuated so much the past few years and right now, I'm JUST overweight, like a 26 BMI. I'm concerned about allowing it to get too high. I really just want to gain what is necessary.
 
You can also add me to the list of ladies slightly concerned about weight gain! I'm not a Skinny Minnie to begin with- about a size 14. I'm guessing the doc will tell me to try to keep my weight gain to a minimum. So far I've been eating healthy (all of one week in lol) and I'm walking my dog every day. Though I'm a little scared to go back to the gym. I think I'll wait to talk to my OB about that before I start any exercise outside of walking.

In other news, I woke up this morning feeling pregnant. My bb's are heavy and soar, and I feel a bloat. I also have a soar throat and stuffy nose for the past two days. That can go away anytime. I'm also lacking energy, but that might be due to this cold, or whatever it is and less because of the pregnacy. I think work is going to be rough today. I have a very demanding job and I'm already wondering how I'm going to make it through the next nine months. When are you ladies planning on telling work if you haven't already? I want to wait a little longer- at least 8-10 weeks so I feel more confident this will actually work out. But, at the same time, if I'm feeling so crappy, and I can't keep up, I really should let my boss know.
 
Hey I wrote a response earlier bit it got lost I think. Congrats on the wonderful scans mine is in 5 hours agh. Hopeful not sure what you mean about your uterus?

I normally have Vivid dreams but they get more so during pregnancy. I'm currently fighting a cold which makes me feel not pregnant as these sumptoms overise the pregnancy ones!

All the best for your scan :) x
 
Applied for my maternity exemption certificate just now. So free prescriptions soon \o/
 
Hi ladies,
I would like to join this journey with you....my scan is on Monday...my progesterone dipped a little so I am little gaurded. Although this baby was conceived naturally, my first was with Clomid....so you can guess how surprised I was to be pregnant the first month of trying!

Happy Healthy pregnancies to all!
