Due Date Club for Lil' March Hares, April Bunnies & May Pikas

[sugarNspice]

gurly - Congrats and welcome!!!

Tiggerian - I'm right here with you. Oh, I feel like crap most of the time, most days. Nauseous, though not vomiting too often (which still makes me worried), spending lots of time in the bathroom (my kitty has taken to napping on the bath mat while I'm in there), and dizzy and headachy. Feeling like I have a hangover, and wanting to do nothing but sleep. I still can't shake the feeling that this isn't going to work out, that the bean might not even be alive in there anymore, that I'm going through all of this feeling icky for nothing. And my house is so dirty, my kids are being neglected, I get nothing done... because I'm really not functioning. Ick, I so can't wait for the second trimester--to feel better and be reassured that I'm still pregnant, all at once.

[Tiggerian]

Well I hope this will make you feel a bit better - I'm in a different due date club and altho we all feel nauseas from time to time its actually very few of us who are throwing up and the other girls have all had scans recently and all is going well.

[gurly]

I wish the scan was sooner! Sucks to wait so long just to confirm my pregnancy is viable. I can't help but worry, I actually bought a couple of tests so I can make sure they're still positive every few days, over the next couple of weeks. Can't relax till I hear that precious heartbeat

[sugarNspice]

Tiggerian - I know, I make no sense. It's like, on the one hand, I'm miserable because I feel awful, and on the other hand, I'm miserable because I don't feel awful enough... There's just no way around this except waiting until some of the awful 1st trimester hormones subside. (and probably more good scans. lots more good scans.)

Gurly - Oh, yes. Waiting for ultrasound is so hard. And I have had losses after good heartbeats and development were found, which makes them less reassuring for me (and just makes me want more and more of them). This time around, I kept telling myself that the longer I waited for the first u/s, the better the information it would provide (this, statistically speaking, is true--you are even less likely to miscarry after seeing a strong heartbeat and appropriate for dates growth later in the first tri than you are after seeing them early on, though both are very good signs). Somehow, repeating to myself that the longer I waited, the more certain the good news, over and over again, really helped me this time around.

I no longer care about the gender as long as i get to give this baby cuddles and watch it grow up!!

I'm going to test again on Friday when af is due, and hope for a strong line. Then im going to register with the midwife on Monday, I dont know if she'll refer me to the miscarriage consultant again, part of me hopes so as ill get an early scan - but i am also terrified of scans so i am not sure i want an early one!!

I hope all the sickness is starting to go off for you ladies, it is def the worst part of the first trimester!
