Im crippled with exhaustion today and all I have eaten is cake and chocolate!!!! I had veg soup at lunch but it made me feel sick. Im not sure if I can face work tomorrow!

All I've eaten is total rubbish as well lol.

Carbs are the only thing that's any good right now. I wouldn't worry about veg soups or anything like that for a while. Just do what you gotta do . Wish there was something to stop the sickness though .
It's hard keeping quiet at this stage because I'm stuffing my face with junk and last week I was on slimming world :-/ lol.

I have ginger nut biscuits to hand at all times, they help with the sickness i find. Although, as sick as i sometimes feel, i think it's pretty mild compared to some women x

So excited about us all getting our dating scan dates.

I'm so excited about our private scan on Saturday , it's in the morning so I'll update you all - with a pic!

I'm not eating anything really exciting, yoghurts are my favourite thing. Or chips and garlic mayo! And sweeties like haribos. Can't stomach any meat. Hope this passes, I love my food! Bit annoying as I'm hardly eating anything but look 4 months already from bloat!!

I have a Doppler too somewhere...think I maybe got an angel care one.

It's weird having a due date at the start of the month, I have my scan a week today and then will be in tri 2! When I had DS, he was due at the end of the month so I was left behind all the time lol.

I had our first counselling session with my husband today. I suppose it went as well as it could although I just wish we could get to the bottom of why he did what he did quickly and there was a magic button to fix it all. What a mess! x

View attachment 71047. This is my bloat

Awww what a lovely little bump x

 

[Mariexo]

My bloat is pretty impressive I think! Haha x

 

[Carly89]

Keep being told you don't show till 12weeks. I'm 9 and I'm showing loads, look like you ladies are too! I'll take a pic later x

I had bloat with DS at 12weeks but didn't pop until 20weeks, the difference is a bump is very hard x

I know it's not the baby yet, but what is it that makes you bloat? Just all the stuff going on around it?, x

Yeah I think it's hormones causing gas and digestion to slow down, a bit like just before you get your period; some women bloat and I guess that's hormones? x

Just been having a read, stuff online suggests it could be because the uterus is growing. By 12 weeks it will have reached the size of a papaya! Maybe it's the in-between normal and papaya sized you see an increase x

I'm at 9 weeks today and I definitely see the difference honestly my uterus is now the size of a grapefruit so it's no wonder we are seeing growth in our tummies. I'm not enjoying the period like cramps everyday, or my mother saying oh my that not a good sign at every symptom.

Lovely bloats everyone! I'm not far behind with the bloat, trying to keep it concealed at work is proving tricky now but only two weeks today until my first scan. Then I intent to come clean if all is ok!

I've just woken up so giving myself some time to come round. I was sick three times before work yesterday, wouldn't like to repeat that as I felt crap all day then and had a right headache. Strangely, I think the sickness was brought on by brushing my teeth! I genuinely struggled to eat anything decent then. Best meal I managed was some pasta for an early tea. OH keeps saying these are good signs all is ok - which I get - but it's hard work when you feel so rubbish.

I better start getting ready - here's to a hopefully vomit free day!
