Midwife called and wanted to move appointment to today
Guess I'm not sitting around in pjs all day lol

 

[Summertime]

Thats great Millie - is this your scan or your booking in ??

Whatever it is good luck and look forward to jearing about it later!

 

[Haylian]

Ooh let us know how you get on?

 

[xMillie]

It's just the booking in appointment

Feeling so fed up of the spotting - it's on and off!

 

[Haylian]

It's really is worrying, is it still pink? And you're in no pain?

 

[Summertime]

have you thought about getting anymore accupuncture? it's supossed to be really good in 1st trimester. I was very sceptical about it but had such a positive effect on my cycle going to continue it until I have the 12 week scan.

I know I shouldnt be but on my lunch at work looking at slots for the early scan place! I will just have to satisfy my urge by seeing your lovely scan pics!

Hope you get some reassurance today Millie about the spotting x

Hi ladies. Is anyone else looking like they're atleast 5 months pregnant lol. I'm so bloated, I'm not sure whether it's gas or what

 

[Summertime]

I have to admit I have been eating like a pig so probably gained a couple of pounds which isn't helped by bloating.

I am quite active usually but really haven't felt like it and dont' want to put my body under too much stress so think lack of exercise and over eating is not good for my belly!

Reckon will get bump quicker second time round with it being #2 - I actually gave all my maternity clothes to a colleague who is due start of September - feel too awkward to ask for them back so will have to get on ebay x

Good luck today Milly. Let us know how you get on.

Anyone else eating utter rubbish? I can't stomach salads so just eating carbs and fruit. Just don't really fancy much at all at the moment. The thought of some things just make me feel really sick. It's horrible.

 

[Summertime]

Yes the only thing I fancy is carb heavy food - usually I bring a salad from home but been eating cheese baguettes and jacket potatos most days!

I gained far too much weight the first time around so I really need to try and keep in under control this time around.

I have just realised these do early scans at the mothercare which is 5 mins walk from my office!!! It's so tempting - not i've seen that don't think I'm going to be able to get the idea out of my head!

Fully out of pregnancy tests so nothing to pee on! heavily pregnany lady sat next to me at work, keep looking at her bump and thinking that will be me in a few months, so exciting

 

[Haylian]

I've just been wanting sweet things, but not sure that's the pregnancy ��.
I don't eat in a morning usually as I feel sick anyway but it's defo stepped up a notch.

 

[xMillie]

All done with Midwife for today

It was pink to start off with but now it's mostly brown? It's only there when I wipe.
I've had a couple of dull aches but nothing thats constant. Midwife said it's probably nothing to worry about.
Just need to stop worrying!!!

 

[xMillie]

Summertime, Did you do your last digi?

 

[Summertime]

Yes - and it said 2-3... I know shouldnt read into these things but hoped for 3+

According to last period I am 6 + a but I'm pretty sure I ovulated late so i reckon I'm closer to 5 weeks than 6. Not buying anymore tests now - need all my money for stuff the baby will actually need!

Thats good news from the midwife - are they going to send you your 12 week scan date in the post or are they waiting until your early scan??

 

[xMillie]

ignore that 2-3!

I want to see a 3+ as well but I'm too scared to use my last! Maybe if all looks good at the scan Ill use it then.
Worrying about the scan because sometimes they find it hard to see anything if you have a retroverted uterus, midwife said they may just tell me to come back in a couple of weeks. So ugh hopefully that doesn't happen!

12 week scan letter should come in the post at some point apparently. If I don't hear anything by 10weeks I need to call midwife to chase it up!


I'm starting to wonder if the full aches were just hunger lol

 

[xMillie]

Our rental car got here today and our car got taken off to be fixed
So good stuff is happening again!!
Now I just need to the spotting to completely stop and thrush to be gone!

 

[Haylian]

Glad good stuff is happening again xMillie.
Hopefully the scan will show that all is well and you won't have to wait

 

[xMillie]

Just had a couple of teaspoons of red
It's gone back to brown spotting I think
I called the doctors and they just said to wait til Thursday and see what's going on at scan
Seems so far away
I just don't feel right at all

 

[Haylian]

Oh no it's such a worrying time! Still not much pain? It's crazy how "normal" bleeding is in the first trimester but yet totally not normal.

 

[xMillie]

Yeah it's just a dull ache like minor period pain?
I'd feel so much better if it would just stop
