October/November Conkers 2021***

@Mummy2Corban getting boy vibes from that scan!

@Suggerhoney i think blue for you too.

AFM, managed to have a shower today and then threw up immediate afterward. But it was too long in between showers and couldn’t put it off anymore. Really praying week 11 is kinder to me than the previous weeks. After having a shower and helping set up my middle DD with her virtual ballet class I’m knackered. Laying in bed all day barely eating anything has taken all my strength. I don’t know how I’ll go back to work when I feel better (I’m a massage therapist so very physical). I have barely the strength to stand.

I need to get in my head the positive things about having a baby... I know this is terrible to say but I can only think of the negatives and it’s making me not want this baby at all. My life was so easy before this pregnancy. I know it’s selfish. But I’ve never felt this way about a pregnancy before, I didn’t even know it was possible. I always say a baby brings so much joy but I just don’t feel that way this time.
 
@Reiko_ctu HG and severe morning sickness is known to cause antenatal depression. Please know it’s understandable. I spent my entire pregnancy with DD2 wishing I wasn’t pregnant and even wished for a loss, it was horrible, but now she’s like the best thing that could ever happen to our family, absolutely adore her.

are you under any medication at all?

Yes I have gravol 4x and the peroxidine one as well 6x. I am too scared to take ondansetron because of the risks and I’m under midwife care so I’d have to go to a doctor to get that prescribed here. I’m really hoping it eases soon and the gravol and pyroxidine is enough.

even with my last pregnancy when I had HG I wasn’t depressed but with this one I think it is depression because I just can’t shake the feeling. Did it creep into postpartum for you at all or just during pregnancy?
 
I’m going to attempt to eat a slice of pizza tonight... how does pizza do coming back up lol??
 
For me was just during pregnancy. I think it’s worse when you have other responsibilities and you feel like crap because you are neglecting other things. I had it with my first but didn’t feel like that was only with DD2.

As soon as she was born and I was back to normal the feelings went away.

I hear you about ondansetron, I have prescription but only take it when I’m absolutely feeling like shit, too scared to use it regularly. Doxylamine is currently helping me a lot

story of our lives. DP was laughing at me when he realised I choose what I eat based on what it’s like coming back up. Haven’t had issues with pizza, just remember to chew a little more than usual.

I had peanut butter and banana on toast the other day and that was bad coming up lol.
Have managed to keep the pizza down for 4 hrs now so FXd it won’t be coming up. I’m so thirsty though and ginger ale is the only thing I’ve been able to drink but I hate that it’s so sugary. I only ever drink water when not pregnant but I just can’t drink it. Another terrible thing is the strong smells. Even when the nausea gets better I’m worried the smells will still make me ill! Even nice smells are terrible to me!!

@daniyaaq how is your HG compared to your last pregnancy? Better or the same?

@Suggerhoney how many hrs till your scan?
 
I’m same it’s gingerale all round. I can tolerate water only if it’s ice cold.
I’d say my HG is much better, smells don’t trigger me and I can actually eat the food ( keeping it down is a whole other story) with my last I couldn’t stand a smell and even looking at food would make me sick.

4 hours is good. by then most of it is digested. I find bananas awful to vomit honestly, same with custard absolutely hate it. I keep getting myself in the situation of eating hot sauce and I die everytime it comes back up

Ooh that burns and esp if it gets into your nose!! I was craving spicy dip for my pizza but didn’t do it for that reason only. Still had a good puke tonight but the pizza had been digested praise be!!

I’m almost 11 weeks and can’t wait to be out of the first tri...

To make our lives more complicated DHs parents now have Covid and have to quarantine! Praying they don’t get too ill!!
 
Oh ladies! It’s awful isn’t it. I find the first part the hardest. Not so much with my first as I think it was exciting but after that I’ve struggled with the first part but as soon as I’m feeling better that feeling definitely lifted but I think by that point having a bump and feeling baby helped too. Big hugs! Hope your feeling better very soon.

@Suggerhoney be thinking of you!!!!! Team blue.... hehehe! Have you any names at the ready or do you wait till birth to announce?

@daniyaaq thanks for changing my due date! Even if it isn’t right it makes me feel better skipping a bit of time! Hahaha!
 
Hi ladies.
My scan went so well. She said baby looks perfect and baby was waving and just looked so much bigger since 13+4 weeks.
She took 2 viles of blood and the gender will also be with the results.
But we do know the gender

So happy and do feel so much better now.
Let's just keep praying these bloods come back all good.[-o<

 
@Suggerhoney congratulations on your baby boy!!!! Yay!!! This is amazing news. The video!!!! Oh my days.... so so cute. Let’s hope these results come back quickly!!!! Xxx
 
I feel like I achieved something today actually went to a birthday dinner with my girlfriends for one of them. And I survived, didn’t eat much myself but I managed to not get sick just from the smells and looking at food. It was nice I think first time I socialised successfully since getting my BFP. Last time I tried to go to a bbq didn’t last 30minutes.
