yes I always feel worse on an empty stomach. So far this morning, I have eatedn 4 packets of crisps and a doughnut! I'm thinking on my dinner already!

So I got sick for the first time last night, or at least tried to. My body is very reluctant to vomit for some reason, so I never do. Yesterday being no exception. It subsided after ten minutes or so, most likely caused by an empty stomach. Bf and I had a huge row and I ended up never having any dinner. Will not be doing that mistake again.

I think its normal to feel sick but not vomit. I hope it stays that way for me as its so hard to decide what I can eat, I don't want to vomit it all up and have to start again! I have been drinking ginger and lemon tea, eating ginger biscuits and have some anti sickness bands, they are helping a bit!

Usually I just feel nauseous and never get sick. This time my body really tried though. A lot of heaving, but it seemed that it somehow got stuck, not even bile coming up. Sorry for tmiing you ladies.

Anyway, just shared the news with my team leader and she was super happy for me. Also quite relieved as she had been very worried. Apparently I've been so much out of sorts this week that she was going to confront me on Monday and my colleague who works from home (in another country!) had talked to her about me being unusually quiet.

Had a scary 12 week scan dream last night which has made me feel very anxious about it all this morning. I ordered a home doppler on ebay yesterday, I used one last time around this time until I could feel regular movements and it really helped with anxiety. They're not recommended by midwives as a lot of people use them later on rather than monitoring movements but once I could feel regular movements I stopped using it and went on those instead. Hope I can find a HB before the 12w scan, took me hours to find last time! X

I had a dream last night about my 12 week scan. they scanned me and told me my baby was huge and that in stead of 12 weeks, I was 24 weeks. I think it's because I feel massive and am not even 7 weeks yet. I properly look like I have a bump.

 

[Blueflower]

Must be all the crisps!

Yes definitely! I'm on my 6th packet today. When I stop eating them I feel sick. Lol!

Oh can you imagine!! I feel very fat too, getting bloated so easily and eating way too much crap!

Ugh I'm finding it so hard to drink enough which isn't like me at all - I usually have glass after glass of water but for some ridiculous reason one of my aversions is pretty much any drink...all I've had today is half a cup of tea Not good!

I'm generally really rubbish at drinking enough and last night realised I'd only had one cup of tea all day and ended up guzzling diet coke at bedtime. Saying that I've only had one cup of tea today as well! Must go and get a drink. X

Coke is one of the few things I can stomach drinking! I must be having a ridiculous amount of sugar.

I'm due anytime between 1st and 5th Jan or two weeks either side 😊😊

I finally got my GP appointment to tell him the news and get the ball rolling, he has given me the number of the midwives to make an appointment. What happens at the first midwife appointment?

If I can remember right it's a few questions about your history and family history. And I think they took blood on my first one and maybe a urine sample. They might do your height and weight too.
It's been a while for me haha x

 

[Holdingthumbs]

Hello all! Hope you don't mind me joining - I was waiting for a February thread as my app told me 1 Feb, but I had my first doctor appointment this week and she gave me 31 January instead. So I've just sneaked in!

I'm in France at the moment and can't stop eating all the crisps but my most favourite thing is fresh baguette with butter fresh beef tomatoes dipped in balsamic vinegar! It's bloomin delicious ! Who needs cheese X

 

[Blueflower]

That sounds delicious! Fresh bread and butter is delicious and easy to eat! I had a nice macaroni cheese for lunch. Really gone off spinach!

Thanks for the info Paige, I might take a copy of my scan report to show them too.

Has anyone thought about clothes? I tried on some shorts today but didn't buy them as they won't fit me soon! Will I need to get maternity shorts for the summer? Could just wear wrap around skirts I suppose. Saw a nice denim dress a few weeks ago but there's no point buying that!

 

[FBTTN8079]

Mmm yum your lunch sounds nice too, I'm thinking more tomatoes for dinner too lol

I've bought a few maternity items from eBay some maxi dresses thinking that with the twinnies I may be a little bigger quicker and the dresses would be great for summer? I'm hoping my linen trousers will do me for a while too, I'll probably buy leggings and long vests and my SIL was saying primark have some lovely long skirts which would be nice for the summer ?

 

[Selina13]

Hey everyone, hope your all ok?

It's scan day for me today and I'm like a kid waiting for Xmas! It's at 9.50 so waiting for 9 to come round so we can leave!!!!!
I'm hoping we see baby and heartbeat, please god let everything be ok! After previous mc's it's a really anxious time. X

 

[Laura1992]

Good luck Selina, let us know.

I'm having a miserable afternoon at work (it's 3.40pm where I am) and just had a cry in an empty classroom. Ugh hormones.
