Thank you ladies :hugs:

Poppiebug, I completely understand what you mean it definitely doesn’t help in reassurance when your spotting regardless! But hopefully they get you in for that next scan to ease your mind a little more, wouldn’t life be much easier if we could just buy little handheld scan machines? :lol: I wish!

Waiting2c, I feel nauseous but haven’t actually been sick yet. Got a funny taste in my mouth and sore boobs but that’s about it for the symptoms so far.

I’m not sure how to date my pregnancy considering I’ve not had a period since my miscarriage, if I date it from our loss then I’d be due 21st Sept and be around 5w but I expect I’m probably earlier than that as I wouldn’t of got caught straight away. I’m hoping when the midwife books me in she’ll also book an early scan but we’ll see.. fingers crossed x
 
Congrats amytrish and alice1234, welcome :flower:

I've had the same with feeling nauseous but not actually being sick. It usually hits me around 3:30 or 4...just in time for my commute home.

Good job on the 3+ elliecain! I did mine on Saturday, 1 week after I got 1-2 and got 2-3 this time, so I'm happy.

I second ellie's comments, Fit_mama. That is a great doubling time. I'm finding doubt comes in waves; positively excited and then all of a sudden feelings of dread. I like being in control and knowing what is going on, so the uncertainty gets me. I hope you get reassurance soon. Are you getting genetic testing done?

Poppie, I hope the timing works out and you can get in for another scan.
 
of course since I said my nausea has been starting in the afternoon, today I've felt sick starting at 9 am...
 
I think my nausea is about over. Haven’t had any for the past 3 days. However, now the headaches have started. Ugh. Which kind of stinks, but that means the hormones are still climbing and I will take that! I have my first OB apt next week. I’m pretty sure they will just do a history and initial exam, we will see. I know I am considered ‘at risk’ because of my age, but I am hoping to keep all of my apts local.

Also we are planning to have genetic testing done, anyone else?
 
Scared to make a move to this forum.. I just got HCG tests back today. 105 on last Friday.. everyone in my obgyn is excited. But I'm still cautious.. that was on 13 dpo

Had more blood taken today, I'll get those results tomorrow. Only thing I notice is being short of breath and having what feels like a head cold.. wish me luck! We've been trying for three years!
 
So my nausea seems to be up and down at the moment. My stomach feels really sensitive all the time but not always nauseous. This morning however I couldn’t get comfortable I felt so sick and then I opened my bin to put something in and the smell made me vomit!!! But since then I’ve been okay. I’m 6 weeks tomorrow so think this is the beginning of it all. I normally get it bad from the 6th weeks so expexting it to start fully this week.
 
Congrats and welcome to all the new people!

I'm feeling the waves of nausea too. Not to the point where I need to get sick, but it comes fast and catches me off guard. I also either get the feeling where I can't even look at food or starving. lol Other than that I'm just really tired.

mrs- We had the genetic testing done with our daughter as I missed the deadline with the first trimester screening as I was with a fertility specialist. This time I'm with the regular OBGYN so I know we'll do the screening, just not sure if we'll get the genetic blood test again.
 
Welcome to the newcomers H&H 9 months to you all!

Hope your doctors appt went well Poppybug and that you were able to get the scan!

My symptoms have been weird, sore breasts have eased off a lot, i dont have a strong sense of smell yet at all which i did have before my 6wks MC so thats a little strange, i have been very exhausted especially with work and also feeling quite sick but not at all nauseas, just feeling really yucky in the tummy. It comes and goes all day long but doesnt feel like nausea at all.. so i dont know if MS can show up this way or not. Its horrible!

Hope everyone else is going well!
 
Feeling bleugh :( still nausea and can’t eat a whole lot. And now constipation :( that gives me crampy pains however I’ve had IBS long enough now to be able to distinguish between the period type pains and the IBS type pains. They are very similar and in almost the same place!
I have a scan a week Thursday so I’m just keeping my fingers crossed for that one that everything is okay.

Fingers crossed for you hun. Looking forward to hearing some good news from you soon.

I saw the Dr Monday night, a small SCH was noted on my last scan, so at least that explains my continued spotting. She referred me for another scan and I've managed to get in to a place for Saturday thank goodness. While I know the spotting is explained by that it's still annoying and I wish it would go away. Although I'll still be anxious about everything, hopefully seeing that bub has grown as it should and increased HR will put me at ease a bit.
 
Hi Ladies,

Jules, I totally feel the same way with my symptoms! Something my sister said when she was pregnant has really helped me that was eat as soon as you wake up. I keep saltines by my bed and just eating one when I first wake up seems to help. Also something I discovered by accident is organic Bone Broth has really helped too. I found it in the drink section of my local store and I just drink a small cup when I feel sick but can't stand food!

finally got a drs appointment set for the 8th of Feb!
 
A bit TMI but is anybody else getting a lot watery CM? 🙈

Poppie I’m glad you found a reason for the spotting.

Wishing everyone with a scan soon the best of luck :hugs:
 
Hi everybody

So I went to get bloods drawn yesterday (Tuesday) and I'm so excited that I'll be going for my first ultrasound next week Tuesday (I'll be 5 weeks and 5 days along by then). It's finally starting to feel real and I can just not contain my happiness. I'll also only be getting my blood test results back when I go for the ultrasound, but I'm really not even bothered by that. I'm going to be counting down the days until then.

As for symptoms: Well... not really much that I can say. I'm actually feeling pretty good, no sickness yet (just a little low grade nausea) and the overwhelming fatigue that just make you want to take a nap anywhere all the time

Hope all you Mommas are doing well
 
Cookiedough- Sorry the sickness is creeping up. I know it's a reassuring sign, but it's still not fun. P.S. My ultrasound is next Thursday as well! :)

Poppie- I'm glad you were able to figure out the reason behind the spotting, though I totally understand it causing a little anxiousness. Hopefully your scan on Saturday will help to ease it some.

Beach- Thanks for the tips! Thankfully I haven't have too much nausea over the past 2 days (knock on wood). I'll keep that in mind if it comes back though.

Amy- I have a little bit of watery cm, but not too much. I'm sure it's fine though, the body does a lot of strange things in pregnancy. lol

Mickels- I'm glad you were able to get things sorted out with a doctor. That's exciting you were able to get bloods and an ultrasound scheduled! Tuesday will be here before you know it!

AFM- Nothing too much going on. I was sooooo tired yesterday. I went to bed early and slept in a little so I feel kind of better today. Anyone having any weird cravings yet? I've been randomly craving spicy things like hot sauce and salsa. lol I really didn't crave anything too weird with my daughter. I remember wanting icy things like water ice and popsicles at one point, but I don't think it was this early on.
 
With my son, I craved tomatoes and marmite in first tri then salty fries later on. Today I had a massive craving for fresh mango and it tasted sooooooo good. I googled it and apparently it’s used to help morning sickness, so that makes sense. I’ve been feeling quite a lot of nausea in the late morning. I don’t remember feeling much at all with Finlo.

Amytrisha- I get more wet cervical mucus when I am preggers. It’s normal - hormones and the wonderful self-cleaning foof doing its job!
 
With my first son I craved meat! Bacon sausage steak and thick gravy. Also green veg.
With my daughter I craved anything sweet. Mint ice cream and also chicken ceaser salad!
With my angel son I was so sick throughout the whole pregnancy that I didn't really crave anything.
This time I'm only able to stomach potato based foods and sweet things like muffins and biscuits etc.
 
My cravings changed constantly with my son. I had a massive aversion to red meat though when it was cooking, the smell of burgers cooking once woke me up and I threw up :lol:

This time I wouldn’t say I have cravings yet but I only fancy certain things due to the nausea!
 
Jules - I was icy things too! Ice poles and frozen grapes in particular! I couldn’t stomach chicken or the smell of it all of the way through! First thing I wanted after Leo was born was a McChicken Sandwich, haha!

Randomly, at the moment it’s artichokes! The ones that you get in olive oil for anti-pasti. I could go through a jar at a time!

I’ve been eating really well recently - but I am working from home today and sorely tempted to grab toast with lashings of butter! Neither of which suit my current gluten free/vegan diet :D

Hope you’re all well -sorry I haven’t posted in a wee while - work and my business are crazy busy, and I seem to be sleeping for two rather than eating for two - zzzzzz!!
 
with my second pregnancy I came home from work to my DH cooking some ground beef in the frying pan, it smelled so bad throughout the whole house I cried! It was the dead of winter and I was sitting with my face pressed up against the screen of our front window crying, I'm sure the neighbours were wondering what the heck was going on!

with DS I would always eat pickles with a glass of milk, it totally grossed out one of our friends. I got sick of it one day and told him if he didn't shut up about it I would start stirring the milk with the pickle... I also craved orange juice with that pregnancy, which I normally would not touch at all.

I don't remember any specific cravings with DD. And this time I don't think I've really had any yet. I was going to say spicy stuff but that started before I was preggo so it doesn't count ahahaha :)

Good luck with the upcoming appointments and scans!

My cousin has gone in for her C-section today, so excited that her little girl will be here soon.
 
My nausea this time has been so different to all my other pregnancies! It's what I imagine normal morning sickness is like Lol! All my other pregnancies I was sick a lot and felt sick constantly. This time (and I know it my change even tomorrow) I feel sick and then when I eat something I feel better, then after a time I start feeling bad again all I have to do is have a little food and I feel better.
Makes me a little nervous that something isn't right as I've had 3 pregnancies with bad sickness (different genders) and now this one with barely any sickness....
