[KylasBaby]

That is a very nice progression kylasbaby!

Thanks. Those are the only kind of reassurances I can get that everything is going well so I test ever two days like a crazy person haha

 

[kel21]

I tested everyday in the begining! I tried to skip a day and about went out of my mind. Thankfully the tests can't get any darker for me so I had to stop! Lol

6 Weeks!

 

[mommyberry]

Ladies... I'm only 5 weeks now.... but I seemed to have bloated a loooootttt!! It is not that I was thin earlier... just that...I'm big now. I'm not really eating for two yet... why am I bloating so much?

 

[zephyr]

Jmandrews - thanks for the heads up about the sea bands!! I was actually going to ask if anyone tried them. My nausea is slowly getting worse and my mum is here in a little over a week to stay with us for 3 weeks and I really dont want her guessing as we are holding off making it public till at least 12 weeks or after a scan.

ill get some bands this week and let everyone know how they go. Usually lemon and ice does it for me but this pregnancy ive gone off lemon and sour fruit!!

my cramps have mostly gone, but I now have frequent heartburn ugggh.

Bloating is pretty normal. It will go away just n time for your baby bump lol

Me too. With #3 I had a bump by 7 weeks and I'm only 5 weeks now and so bloated that I can't do up my jeans

About the bloating...about three days ago I looked huge! Even hubby noticed it...and one little girl in the school I work at innocently and sweetly said, "You look like you're having a baby!!" Argh!! Hahah.

I'm 6+2 today.....and have my first scan on Wednesday. Bloods came back all wonderful and good a week ago...but now I can't help but worry over my lack of symptoms. I am VERY tired, and still have sore boobs....but no hint of morning sickness or anything.

I know not everybody gets morning sickness and I shouldn't wish it on myself....but it might help reassure me that I'm actually pregnant!!

Who else is about 6 weeks and also is still feeling pretty much "normal"?????

 

[ljo1984]

6 weeks today, after fighting nausea last few days I was sick this morning!!! Only cause hubby didn't wash his plate last night and he'd had curry!!! Urgh too strong a smell for my pregnancy sences to handle!!!

 

[Mrs Eleflump]

Can you maybe call nhs24 mrs eleflump? I hope it goes soon. I haven't had migraines since I was a lot younger but I know how much of a nightmare they are.

I contacted nhs direct, but they didn't know the answer I had a miserable night, waking up all the time thirsty and headachey. I still have the headache this morning, so I'm going to see if the pharmacist can advise me better, and if not, I'll have to make a GP appointment, I suppose My migraines don't incapacitate me, they just go on and on for about three days, and I feel crappy, but not crappy enough that I think I can stay off work etc.

I don't know if I feel sick because of the migraine or if it's actually morning sickness. I feel a bit better now I've eaten though. My boobs have gone to another level of tender this morning...I can't lie on my stomach any more (guess I'd better get used to that, huh? ). I did an IC yesterday and the test line was much darker than the control line, which was very reassuring

Kylasbaby fantastic progression

Lijsken I am 5 +1 had some cramping and odd shooting pain but boobs are fine and no ms yet!! I am really tired though. During my last pregnancy 8 years ago!! I had had my first admission to hospital for ms which turned out to be 9 months of severe hyperemesis and hospital became my second home so hoping I get off lightly this time it has taken us 8 years to come back but I must admit I am a bit scared as thought my boobs would be sore lol

[Loopy Laura]

Hi I'm new here and wondered if I could join please? I've been TTC for over a year with irregular periods and got lucky on my first cycle of clomid! Got my bfp yesterday and still can't believe it! Especially as I was told from my progesterone blood test a couple of weeks ago that I didn't ovulate! So confused! Going to book a doctors appointment tomorrow.

Hey!

I haven't tested yet, but I'm 95% certain that I am pregnant. OH will hopefully get a test for me tonight.

I am 4 days late, was afraid to test sooner because of the fear of seeing a negative and being discouraged. But today every symptom in the book hit me, and I just instantly knew I am pregnant. We will see tonight if I am right.

I woke up this morning sick as could be, nauseau wise. Slight cramping, feeling very faint accompanied with pulling in my uterus that just felt like not enough blood flow was going down there fast enough, heart Burn/reflux, headaches, and my breast have become covered in veins which is my #1 sign that I'm pregnant, and my nipples feel like someone's pinching them. It all happened so much sooner with my first two pregnancies, this ones symptoms seem to be coming on slower but once it hit, it hit hard.

Congrats on all of the newly pregnant ladies! My first was an October Bumpkin for 2010 brings a tear to my eye remembering the journey.

XoXo

That's so exciting that you have all those symptoms! Can't wait to see that beautiful BFP and hear the good news. Let me know when ur EDD is and I'll add you.

Welcome and congrats trying4four and Loopy Laura!!!

Yesterday we told a lot of my family we are expecting #2 everyone is thrilled. We still need to tell DH's family. We need to call his grandma first. It's so fun to share our exciting news. I'm ok sharing it with our family and close friends because if something happens I will have the most loving support system.

I haven't been having many symptoms lately. I hate when the symptoms disappear. I have a little cramping this morning. My bbs are super sore to the touch still. DD pushes off on them almost sending me into tears. Other than that I feel normal.
