Hi, im 15 weeks today.

Morning sickness has died down, still incredibly gaggy though!

Very tired so always having early nights but waking up stupidly early (3am/5am) for a pee and having difficulty dropping off again!

Bump is very noticeable too now!

Dannii

Thanks ladies, very excited!

Dannii, My MS is gone but sometimes feel a little sick and also extremely tired. I don't wake up though and can sleep all day

The last week I have had a bump ( bigger in the evenings ) but always thought it was gas.. But it never goes down so perhaps I have to accept there is a bump coming the other day a lady actually stood up on the train and offered me her seat! I could not believe it!!

Had my 16 week midwife appointment today. All blood test / irons / etc fine. And she let me listen to heartbeat - was brilliant.

Full of cold at the moment and can't take anything but hearing that today made it all worth while.

Hope everyone else feeling ok X

Morning sickness has pretty much gone for me too, but I still feel 'off' food, but when I cook I make far too much LOL.
I have leftovers from the last two nights, but I have ended up sticking them in the freezer as I just didn't want any of it.

Today I have been so unhealthy - went out with friends and had a chip butty and onion rings! And then had a slice of cornflake tart
Tonight I've just had a banana and a thick slice of fresh crusty white loaf with butter & jam lol.

I'm wanting carbs again at the moment (bread, veggie burger in a bun & chips etc), but no matter what I eat in an evening I feel queasy and dissatisfied afterwards

On the plus side, in the last few days I've started feeling the baby move a lot more, at least 3 times a day. And this morning I was laid in bed on my back and it was moving so I put my hand on my belly and actually felt a 'kick' with my hand (albeit very gentle). So that's exciting. Can't wait for the kids and other people to be able to feel it kicking

Eeek after worrying I had less movement and then no movement over the last few days husband had hand on my lower tummy and baby was kicking a lot and he could feel it all aswell for the first time. Has stopped now but that's the most movement I have felt I usualy only have felt movement once a day and not as many kicks as this.

When the midwife tests for iron levels - (this may be a silly question) if I'm taking a supplement which includes iron, surely my reading wouldn't be as true as if I weren't taking them?

I'm curious about it because had a weird turn last week and then started taking an iron supp and it hasn't happened since. Plus my mom was anaemic when she was pregnant with me.

Has everyone got bumps now? Mine is still quite little but it's getting there xxx

 

[Phoenix85]

Mine's huge - or so people keep telling me

 

[Redbootz]

Mine gets bigger throughout the day so some of my bump has to be gas and food! It's really small though so no one would notice i am pregnant. The midwife said to me expect to have popped by 24 week appointment.
