.. October 2016 Mummies - Second Trimester ..

[D3bbie]

I have a migraine again and I just don't know how to cope.

I keep getting pelvis pain too, at the back when I've been sitting too long. Luckily I have this week off work but we have done a lot of driving for hours the last few days and it's been agony.

Haven't been on much as we had our big house move over the weekend and start of this week, I am literally exhausted. Glad I have this week off work. Other half is an absolute gem, gets up at 5 for work every morning, comes home and looks after me then goes away and sorts boxes, bless him.

Got my blood work results back at low risk for Down Syndrome, 1 in 2246 so that's good have got my next midwife appointment on Monday, then got my next appointment with the family partnership midwife on Wednesday (because of my age this is what I get instead of a health visitor!) and then my private gender scan next Sunday! Already sorted out keyrings for all my family which will have a scan photo on one side and then will tell them to turn it over with its a boy/girl on the other side, so I will phone the company when I know what we are having and they will have them ready to pick up the next day.

Hi everyone, can I join you all here now of do I wait to hit 13 weeks? xxxx

Im a bit of a rule box, so I tend to not move fully over until Im in that Trimester - but there aren't any golden rules as such!

I had a belter of a migraine Tuesday - I've got Neurology in May for review. Hopefully can get something safe for pregnancy and had a meeting with my manager who's reassured me loads - I was super stressed because we are all under pressure but now Ive emailed and told her that I am going home gubbed basically and suffering migraines through stress in here, shes hopefully going to leave me be.

Today I have just been feeling so sick and been sleeping a lot today and still tierd meh! Work tomorrow so hopefully this sickness will do one lol x

 

[Jasmine111]

Been sick as a dog today, think it may be the iron tablets though, I took my first one on an empty stomach and paid for it all day xx

 

[Cookie24]

I don't like iron tablets as they make me constipated lol hope I don't need them for this pregnancy!

 

[Wilson28]

Yes iron tablets make you like that, ring the gp and ask for a prescription for liquid iron its alot gentle to your tummy. Xx

 

[Hedgehog]

I had iron tablets after having DD and the constipation was awful x

[Dodsy83]

Hi all, just popping in as preparation as I'm tri 2 on Monday.
Can I be added to the list please? Due 17th October

Thank Sarah x

 

[Cookie24]

So I thought the sickness would go away in tri 2 but I'm still feeling so sick (feeling sorry for myself lol) and a headache, and to top it all off I'v got work tonight and looking after two kids, I just want my bed haha!!

 

[Jasmine111]

Didn't take my iron tablet until lunch time today, after I had eaten. I haven't been sick at all today, first time in weeks-so happy!! that might all change next week lol xx

 

[russellmuscle]

Right I went back a couple pages and updated some dates.

If I've missed you just let me know.

I have my gender scan in 5 days

Starting to feel a lot more moment now too which is reassuring. Pokes, taps and wriggles. Always when I'm lying down flat so mainly night time or if I drink something cold and I'm sitting I get a few pokes.

I just can't wait to get buying now once we know what we are having. I'll be going pram shopping next week no doubt and probably get my snuzpod then too.

xxxx

 

[Jasmine111]

I can't wait to my snuzpod, they look fab xx

 

[russellmuscle]

They do. I think I'll keep mine in the shop with the pram if we can because I don't want it in the house I've not got huge amounts of storage. Plus I'll want to build and play with them

[Wilson28]
