Hi ladies- I need a little reassurance. After all of my stomach issues yesterday, I've been having AF-like cramps today. No bleeding. I know first trimester cramps can occur, but I haven't had them for 3 weeks (I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow). I haven't really had any stomach problems today except for some gas after lunch.

Is it possible not to have the stretching/cramps for a while and then have them pick back up again?

I'm 11 weeks tomorrow and I've felt nothing much at all in terms of cramps except when I need a BM (sorry TMI!) for the last couple of weeks. However two nights ago I woke up with cramps and couldn't sleep through them. However, no bleeding so I've put it down to normal pregnancy cramps.

I've started trying to find the heartbeat with my angelsounds doppler but haven't had any success yet. I'm still a bit early for that I think.
 
Avalanche - amazing that you have so much energy! Buying baby things is the best!

Desiree - sorry you are so sick. It sounds awful. At least you have a very understanding and helpful family. Hope it eases soon.

Mummamoo - hope it goes well with the mw today.

AFM - my nausea is back full force today :sad1: was nice to have a break from it yesterday but I'm back to toast and lucozade today. I've been having cramps for a couple of days, very gentle, assuming it'll continue as I continue to grow.
 
Thank you, ladies. I feel so much better hearing that a lot of ladies have the same cramps and it is normal. I'll try drinking more water.

Littledreamer- we have the NT scan on the same day. I can't wait to have the results and feel confident. Sorry you're having house issues, we just bought a house and had to deal with some issues, but the owners wanted to leave town. They ended up dropping the price and we had to do the fixes, but fortunately we had most of them done before we moved in. Good luck Friday.
 
Glad everyone is doing well. Des- sorry you have awful ms too.
Littledreamer- I hear you with just wanting all the test results in so you can tell family. I'm supposed to start my blood tests for genetic screening tomorrow. Glad you get to see your hubby this weekend!

Amantila- thanks for that tip on the Amazon registry/free gift box. I don't think I qualify for the free gifts since I'm not a Prime member, but it was so much fun completing my registry and made this feel more real!

Xanza- so glad you got lots of reassurance on here from the ladies. And Campn had all through her other pregnancy, so assume it is totally normal. One reason I went for a 3rd scan last week was because I was having terrible cramps. My dr. said it is normal and just the uterus stretching. Mine would have improved if I was able to drink a lot of water, but I still can't keep down much liquid. So keep drinking water, and it should help.
Hope you are feeling good today!
 
Xan - Cramping was worrying me towards the end of last week too. But as ladies said, it is pretty normal and basically gone now.

Welcome back avalanche!

GL with the testing ladies!!

I decided to forgo the 1st tri testing with this bub mostly because my insurance doesn't cover it unless I am high risk, which I am not.
I have been debating whether to buy a Doppler. I think I want to, but I am a penny pincher and don't really like spending money on stuff. :dohh:

Nausea is still hanging around, worst worst worst after dinner!! Ugh this baby does not like evening time. Still have only thrown up ONCE through this whole thing so far though!!

I have been going to sleep soooo early, I am exhausted by 8PM. :sleep:

Telling in-laws this weekend!! I am so excited to start telling people. Our last baby was not planned and we were met with a lot of disappointment instead of joy and I think this time will be so much different! It makes me want to tell everyone, and I am struggling to wait till my 13Week OB apt to hopefully hear the heartbeat before telling work and facebook. What do you ladies think??
 
Just1more- Congrasts on 11 weeks today!! Sorry you are feeling so sick still. It is the worst for me at night too. I plane on telling the rest of my family after my ultrasound. Only my parents, hubby's parents ans my sister know right now. I really want to tell my grandma because she can tell something it up with me. But if I tell her then my entire family will know! She cannot keep a secret. lol I think its good you are telling your in-laws this weekend:) I would wait to hear HB as well before i announced to friends and Facebook.

AFM- My doctors office just called today and have booked me for a dating ultrasound on Tues Feb 16th. Yay!! Apparently the OB I am being referred too won't give me an appt until they see how far along I am. I am so excited as my first ultrasound was not until Feb 24. This one is only 5 days away:) Maybe once I know all is well with the baby, I can tell the rest of my family next week.
 
Hi ladies- thanks for all the support. I am feeling much better today and am chalking up the bad cramping to being dehydrated from my upset stomach. Drinking lots of water seems to be helping a lot.

Just1- I am personally waiting, because I let the cat out of the bag too early last time and then had to have lots of awkward conversations. But it really is a personal choice. I'm seeing my best friend from high school this weekend for the first time in years. So, yes, it will be a struggle to keep quiet.
 
This thread moves so fast! Just a quick bit of advice for those suffering with severe mirning sickness...I finslly went to tge doctors today and glad I did as I am dehydrated apparently which isnt good. She prescribed me drugs and they are amazing. I can finally drink without throwing up and feel almost normal. Def recommend seeing doc if you gavent already.bi have been off work for a week now and doc said need another week to rehydrate! Had to tell boss which is scary at nine weeks!
 
That's it! Am officially booked in with the Midwife!
She had terrible trouble getting blood out of me, so called someone else in to have a go and it turned out to be someone I went to school with! I'm still racking my brain trying to remember her back then! Got 4 puncture wounds in total - apparently I'm a real trouper and deserve a sticker :)
There is a chance I may have to see a consultant as I had a third degree tear last time, just for them to say either yes I can give birth at the mlu, or no, they'd rather I go to the mlu further away as the consultants are based there. The Midwife thinks I should be fine to stay at the more local one though... Fingers crossed!
Roll on next week now, 6 days till scan day!
 
OH has accidentally told someone in work :dohh: really hope it doesn't get out.
 
Hey ladies,

More parent teacher conferences tonight. I had a last minute appointment made so at least one parent came in tonight. I'm stuck here for two more hours and I'm exhausted and trying not to fall asleep at my desk while grading.

I've already decided that I'm taking the day off tomorrow. I need it between feeling nauseous again in the morning and daytime and just being exhausted from overworking myself this week and having to stay late for conferences.

I'm going to stay home tomorrow, sleep in, and try to clean our place up a bit because my grandparents are coming to visit for the weekend and I've been avoiding cleaning for...too long. It should be nice to see them...haven't seen them since August!

I second the idea of getting the meds. I've started on them as well and while it's not 100% effective it makes a humongous difference. I still have a lot of food aversions but as long as I avoid those certain things (and smells) I don't have any issue being sick.
 
Girlies, may be a daft question and Im probs over worrying again but have any of your symptoms subsided? I have had really bad nausea, only been sick 2ice but the last few days its been much milder, and my boobs dont hurt atall anymore. Im 8 weeks 4 days, had a scan at 6 weeks 3 days and saw heartbeat, im just terrified at my scan sunday there wont be a heartbeat. I had a mmc last year so im a lunatic!
 
jessiless, I know what you mean. I have only had mild waves of nausea and I am 7.4weeks. I have seen baby and hb and had mc last time. It makes me wonder if something is wrong. But, may be we are just lucky one not to have nausea that bad. Hope everything turns out ok for you.
 
Mummamoo - so exciting! Not long to wait for your scan!! Yours will be the first 12 week in here I think?

Aman - glad you are taking some time off. Hope you feel better soon, and don't tire yourself out with the cleaning!

Jessie - I think it's fairly normal for symptoms to come and go? I tend to have all day nausea (no throwing up thankfully) but when I get a day 'off' from it I can't help but start to worry. One of my apps said that the placenta starts to take over a little bit now so some symptoms might ease, so it could be that too?
 
Hope everyone is well?

I've got this cold/cough for 3 weeks & blocked ear. I'm starting to feel better & more energy now though.

Hardly any nausea now, just occasionally get the horrible yellow bile stuff ew.

Really hope I get my scan date through soon so I have the date to work towards!
 
Mummy1506, I had that yucky bile thing last pregnancy even before I was out obedf it used to come up and it gave me worst feelings ever. But, soon it will get over. I don't have anything yet this time but, fx it stays that way. I don't want to bw puking 4x a day.
 
Mumma- your scan in Tuesday? I think there is a whole bunch (3 or 4) of us that have a 12 week/NT scan Tuesday. Lots of news!!!
