@Niknaknoo Ah look, how lush ! I can't ever tell, if I had to say cause of the head shape I'd say boy too x

@Nattles33 I've still got nausea and sickness think it's here to stay and my awesome son has given me his flu, so I'm suffering between head cold and vomiting (yay). But I will say I feel like placenta has taken on more, I feel a bit more like me.

I'm exhausted too and I get really shakey, I don't remember being like this with DS.. Gp gave me iron tablets so make sure you check your iron levels if you're struggling xx

All these scans as so exciting!

Our nhs 20 week scan isn’t until 6th Nov, so glad we have the privategender scAn on 5th Oct. I’ll be 15w 4days, they scAn from 15w 2days at our private clinic.

Nattles I feel like most of my symptoms have gone too other than the tiredness.

Has everyone revealed their pregnancy now? Ours is still secret.

Can’t wait for a little bump to appear. Just feel fatter haha

So pleased a few of you have started to feel the flutters xx

 

[Niknaknoo]

We’ve told friends and family, I am avoiding doing anything on social media at the moment. Maybe after we’ve had screening results and gender scan.

It’ll be a little longer before I start looking actually noticeably pregnant, at the minute I just look the same but the tubby belly is a bit more solid than it was before!

Xxxx

 

[Nattles33]

Okay so I think so spoke too soon when I said my nausea had gone I've felt so ill today with nausea just like the first trimester.
Last week must have just been a good week ha.
I cany stomach anything with a bit of flavour. Plain pasta for lunch and a plain packet of hula hoops. Anything with a little bit of flavour makes me want too
Hope everyone else is feeling good xxx

 

[Bre]

@Nattles33 I’m feeling great!!! 18 weeks just having some back pains other than that this pregnancy’s been so good to me. Sorry to hear your nausea has come back hope you start to feel like yourself again soon xo

 

[Nattles33]

@Bre you're making me feel so jealous!!

Is this your first?

Glad you're having a breeze lol I'm hoping tomorrow will be a better day xx

 

[Niknaknoo]

@Nattles33 ive just had the worst wretching episode yet. I’ve felt nauseous all afternoon after a few days off. My annual autumn cough is making its appearance now and I was coughing so hard and wretching all at the same time.

Stayed up late Friday night as we were at a wedding and it’s caught up with me. Have a 2 day wedding this weekend, so hope I’ve recovered by then! Have booked myself a facial at the hotel spa on the Sunday morning. Can’t wait!

Jeni, hope you are recovering and taking it easy. X

 

[Alexis2017]

I had to admit I've had zero nausea... But I've had indigestion, fatigue and the worst wind (both ends) I am so embrassed.

I had a really dry mouth for weeks amd now it's just on and off. I have a lot of headaches and my back is sore cos I have herniated discs x 2 in my lower back so it's painful as I can't take my normal painkillers.

I'm on call and got called out sat night and had to work Sunday so no days off for me and 11 days in a row... Roll on Friday when I get a day off... My job is not easy when preggers at all... Not sure how I will do this in 3rd tri! My work has told me they can't offer me part time when I go bakc so using my annual leave to work 2 days a week for 3 months then I wl need to find a new job! Ahh so unfair

11 days sounds nightmarish alexis. Hope you manage to find a job quickly when the time comes.

@Bre do I need to change your due date?

I'm so sorry for you ladies still struggling with 'first trimester' symptoms!! I'm just exhausted (but my LB is sleeping badly at the mo so that might not even be pregnancy ) I guess that's good preparation though!

 

[Bre]

@Summerwine

Sure! I’ve been given the 27 of February! But you never know

@Nattles33. Third pregnancy for me but first to full term xo

 

[SpiritedAway]

@Jeni 1990 Ah I'm so sorry you had to go through that Jeni xx Please make sure you look after yourself and take time out for you xx

 

[Summerwine]

@Summerwine

@Nattles33. Third pregnancy for me but first to full term xo

I've moved your date on the first page. I'm also due in Feb, but I'm expecting a mid-March baby!

 

[Summerwine]

Oh @Jeni 1990. I'm so glad you're coming back and letting us know how you are doing. I hope they clear you on the 30th so this doesnt drag on for you x

 

[SesameSeed]

Been thinking about you @Jeni 1990

How’s everyone feeling? I’m 14 week today and been feeling like things are certainly stretching over the last couple of days.

Going out for tea which some of the girls tonight and undecided whether to tell them or not. Was trying to wait until we’ve had the gender scan but just too excited

Is anyone opting/needing a c-section?

 

[Summerwine]

No c-sec for me @SesameSeed, unless baby is breech or something. I am considering a home birth if all goes well this time... really unsure though, and dont want to get my heart set on anything as it didn't quite go to plan last time!

 

[Bre]

I've moved your date on the first page. I'm also due in Feb, but I'm expecting a mid-March baby!

@Summerwine. Thank you! I just noticed that you got your BFP the same day I got mine!!
