.. October 2016 Mummies - First Trimester ..

[Cherrybelly]

Hi Ladies, I used to be on the trying to conceive boards a while back before I started my first IVF cycle when I had a break from the forum. Thought it would be nice to be part of a pregnancy forum now and try make it feel a bit more real. My due date is the 28th Oct. I've had some spotting the past few weeks and not due a scan until the 23rd of March. Feel like I'm going out of my mind ! Not had any major symptoms, just some headaches and my boobs are starting to get a little sore but not as bad as they get around my period. I thought once I had my BFP I would rlax but this is worse than going through the treatment.

Hope everyone else is getting on well x

Hi Meggy! Congratulations on your bfp!!

You're right, tri 1 is terrifying, but we'll all get through it together xxx

Can I join you October ladies? I'm due on the 14th. I haven't read all of this thread, but is anyone starting to show, I'm convinced I am, this is baby number three so I haven't got any stomach muscles left anyway!

Hi Jo and welcome I'm due 14th as well. I think I'm starting to show but this is my first but as it's worse as the day goes on I think a lot could be bloating? Either way I'm worried I won't manage to hide it until the 12 week scan.

Hi and welcome, yes I never expected tri 1 to be this worrying but I think we are all in the same boat. I've not suffered any sickness yet but have had growing painful boobs since before my BFP vivid dreams disturbed sleep and tiredness requiring afternoon/evening naps sometimes. Twinges and cramping but Otherwise not a lot of change x

Welcome Meggymac, glad to have another IVF bubba on this thread. There are a couple of us. Yes Tri 1 is terrifying. X

I'm just lounging today. Went out with the puppy earlier to get him a new coat as he's outgrown his other one.



A date to update the thread with aswell...... The hospital called me on Friday and want me to come in for a scan tomorrow at 6w1d !! I'm excited and nervous, she said that it may still be too early to see anything. Still have my 7w scan next Monday aswell. X

You might see a heartbeat

What puppy have you got xx

That would be great! I had a bit more bleeding on Friday though and I stupidly did another digi Saturday morning to see if it had gone up to 3+ as my bhcg should have gone up again to at least 2000muI/ml after my results of 1,317 on Thursday but it still showed as 2-3weeks í*½í¸•

We have a Whippet puppy, he's 6 months old now and have had him from 10 weeks old. We have 2 retired Greyhounds aswell, so a house full í*½í¸œ Xx

Put them tests away missy lol...

What will be will be, we should all remember that....

Its something that is out of our hands
And you needto relax xx

Haha I know! I'm sure I like to torture and torment myself! 😜 Xx

I went to Mothercare today and picked up a couple of bras as mine had become so uncomfortable. But I tried on some maternity jeans and they were huge. My current jeans and work trousers are so uncomfortable after lunch. I tried the hairband trick through the button but it doesn't work on my work trousers. Not sure what to do. I wish I could go to work in my PJs, they're so comfy!

 

[Wilson28]

Did you buy the bras chick? A littletio, asda sell £3 wireless sports bras padded and are fab, also aldi do them for £6 x

 

[SLHRK]

Only thing I can actually eat without feeling nauseous is crisps ..this is so bad! Haven't had a proper meal in 2 days now xx

 

[Meggymac]

Thanks for the lovely warm welcome everyone! Congratulations to you all. Looking forward to seeing/hearing about everyone's scans as they come along. I've been better tonight and been googling nice pregnant things for a change and just being on the forum tonight has allowed me to feel more excited rather than anxious.

I'll need to remember that hairband trick D3bbie as my work trousers aint gonna fit soon if I keep eating Easter eggs the way I have been !

 

[Wilson28]

Snap...im loving prawn cocktail crips lol and cheese spread/cucumber swichs lol...

Hey everyone, my names Natalie, I'm currently 8weeks and 2 days pregnant with my first baby, I'm due on the 8th October, and my scan is forever away on the 4th April!!
This is because I'm a posted worker and I'm currently working in France and they soonest they could get me in is April 4th which is actually mine and my oh anniversary!
Looking forward to chatting with you all during our pregnancies! x

 

[Hedgehog]

Morning ladies, hope everyone had a nice weekend. Is anybody else suffering from headaches daily? It's really starting to annoy me. Still no sickness but did a digi this morning and it has gone up to 3+ so that's put me more at ease.

Welcome and congratulations Natalie xx

I'm hoping to tell my parents and my parents-in-law about our pregnancy next weekend (Mothers Day!) Since our booking in appointment has now been moved, I will not have had any doctor appointments by the time I am intending on telling them (although I will be almost ten weeks gone). I know that I am pregnant only by the stick I peed on six weeks ago and the size of my breasts! Do you think I should wait until after my scan to share with parents or would I know if there was something wrong by now?...
