Rosie, I'm just really tired and I can't control my body temperature. When I'm at work (I teach high school), I'm sweating like crazy, but as soon as I get home and sit around a little, I can't get warm no matter how many layers of clothes I wear. I'm having a lot of bloating/constipation issues already too. Yikes!
With my two girls, I was super sick. With my boy (my third), I was rarely ill. He passed away at six weeks old due to a severe heart defect this past summer, so my anxiety is already super high. I'm hoping this baby is healthy, first and foremost, but another boy would be nice too!
Oh srg, i am so very terribly sorry for the loss of your son. So very sad. I hope the little bean in your belly is another boy...not to replace but to help heal the heartbreak of losing your beautiful boy. I know way too many people who have lost kids and it is such a sad situation. My heart goes out to you.
I like you srg can not get my temps under control either...i am hot and then cold and dizzy and shaky. I just feel absolutely terrible with this pregnancy all around. I get this terrible pressure/bloating in my abdomen and it drives my crazy.
Today i woke up sick with a sore throat so it is just a miserable day. Two 2 hour long naps and I just want to go to bed still. Yuck.
srg- so sorry about your baby boy:( hopefully you can add another boy to help ease the pain. I am sure any babe will do that thought.....
Rosie- that really stinks you have a sore throat on top of all the prego yuckies!
It is so hard to find something that sounds good to eat when everything smells horrible to me!! Coffee is usually one of my favorite smells in the world but smelling it now makes me want to up chuck!!

Okay so I have a fever and the chills. I am so scared for the baby now...fevers can harm them right? I also feel so so so sick to my stomach and can't eat anything. I am unsure if its the illness making my stomach feel this bad or morning sickness. If it is morning sickness than wow i have never had it this bad. My husband stayed home from work today and I am in bed trying to rest...hard to do when i feel like ralphing. Yuck.
Only over 103 with fevers and pregnancy. Lower than that and don't worry about it. If it's higher, it's worth taking a tylenol if you can keep them down. Feel better soon!
Thanks atomic. It was 102 so i took tylenol just in case. I never ever get fevers...its crazy i have one.
Srg09 so sorry to hear about your baby boy:( that is likely the worst thing any mother must endure.

Well I am officially joining the due date group! October 26th is my day:) I have many mixed emotions as I come to terms with being here again- my loss in December is still very fresh and I can't believe sometimes that I am back at square one.
Aside from that I am already having pretty awful nausea and the acne is back in full force- even on my chest! Gross. I suppose I should be saying I am lucky, some women would die for pregnancy symptoms, my best friend included and I told her today that I was pregnant. It is so hard to share this with her but i know she was hurt when I kept my last pregnancy from her. Anyway-
Here I am. Again! Glad to be amongst you all!

And did I mention the wicked sharp cramps I have been having the last two days?!? Both sides, low in the groin on and off. Pretty painful. I wonder if it's related to my recent loss? Never experienced this with other pregnancies. Makes me nervous about the viability of this pregnancy! So much worry

Round ligament pain. It is the thin ligaments that hold up your uterus stretching. Remember, your muscles have a memory too and are accommodating your pregnancy early. Totally normal. It happens when you have had children before. Most women notice it later on, but totally normal to have it early. I had it BAD with DS2! That's how I knew I was pregnant, because I couldn't get a positive test until 21DPO!Quote:

I might, might not, or might flare up now and then. With DS2, it went away by the end of the first trimester, only to flare up now and then in the third. Rest helps and when you can, walking and a belly band to support your uterus and lift it so your tiny muscles holding up your uterus gets a break. It was a GODSEND for me in the third trimester!Quote:

Congrats again 2 boys and welcome! ! Those sharp pains are indeed normal. I have gotten a ton already. I am with you on the worry boat...it is really hard. My last two pregnancies both ended in loss so it is hard not to analyze every pain I feel as something bad. I am way way way sicker this time so while I feel awful i take it as a sign this one is working and so I am grateful.
Well the stomach flu has hit my house:( ds1 was throwing up all night Friday night. I am praying no one else gets it!
2boys- I have the crazy cramps also. I can't remember them being this bad with any other pregnancy I have had. But maybe I am sensitive to things going on since the mc.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
QueenB I hope the your guy is feeling better! It's very hard to see them sick isn't it?
I agree about being sensitive due to mc, it seems like everything is "raw", including the my emotions. I am really struggling to relax, I am constantly thinking how annoying it is that I am back here, nervous about gender AND miscarrying again. I am going to do the MaterniT21 test again- ahhhh! I can't believe I am doing this again. The waiting is going to pure torture. Last night I decided I am picking up my running program again- I was just into when I miscarried in December-I need something to burn off this worry!

Thanks 2boys:) I have also toyed with the idea of picking up a good exercise routine. But the nausea keeps me from even attempting to put in my t25 videos:-/ I know some strength training would do me some good. But is so hard to jump back into it when feeling so yucky. Plus it has been almost a year since I dumped all strength training for my sway. Yikes!!
Ds1 is feeling better. I am praying my younger 2 don't get it. Seems so much harder when the younger ones get it, they don't make it to the toilet as easily:(
I bet it will be materniT21 time for you before you know it!!
Hope everyone else is doing well!
Keepthefaith-has your nausea gotten any better??
Rosie- hope your fever is gone and you are starting to feel better!

Hey no still feeling yuk constantly, only think stops me feeling sick is to eat so I am slowly gaining all the weight that I lost with sway grrrr. Planning on trying to watch calories and exercise once sickness stops which hoping it will soon. I'll be 9 weeks tomorrow time going relatively fast! Constantly worrying though as my two miscarriages were so different and the second one I had no bleeding and full on symptoms and went to scan at ten weeks to see no heartbeat. That's was so hard as I was so sick and had loads of typical symptoms which means this time I don't feel symptoms are a comfort. I have harmony test next Tuesday and a scan will feel better after that I pray!Quote:

I am also very nervous about my first scan, and after two losses I can imagine how you feel! I will be keeping you in my thoughts[emoji120]
I have contacted my midwife and mentioned a scan. I want one ASAP, like within the 6-7 week mark. I will likely meet with her this week to discuss the plan. If she isn't up for it, due to midwifery beliefs, I have a great ob who I will go and see.

I am still sick but no fever anymore. My morning sickness is terrible..i am barely eating. I got some watermelon today and made chx noodle soup and those things go down pretty easy.
Keep...i kbow the feeling of feeling very pregnant and then seeing nothing on the 10 week scan but unlike you my morning sickness wasnt terrible so the fact that mine is now is somewhat comforting. I believe the odds of two missed miscarriage in a row are so so low and i am sure all is fine for you this time!
When i had my scan they saw a small bleed in the placenta...has anyone else had that and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy?? The doc said my risk of miscarriage was a little higher because of it and now i am so worried.
Rosie- did they call your bleed a subchorionic hemorrhage? I know lots of people have these and everything turns out fine. I am sorry you have to be stressed out about this:( just remember baby had a strong heartbeat!
Keepthefaith- one week until your blood test!!!
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
They just called it a bleed. She said it was probably from the placenta forming or what not. I am assuming it is similar to a subchorionic hematoma. I read if they are large enough they can cause the placenta to detach. I am hoping the blood just reabsorbs...if i see it i will freak.
Rosie I don't blame you for worrying. I had a large subchorionic bleed with DS2 and I never passed any blood. My body must have absorbed it, by my 20 week scan it was gone. .
Try not to fret too much. I was told they are very common and even women with large bleeds (me) go on to have healthy normal babies:)

Anybody else extremely nauseous?!? I am barely 4 weeks and I can hardly function by mid afternoon. And insomnia! Which is ironic bc I am so tired!!

Hey ladies. I'll come join you. I've been lurking but I need a sounding board :). I'm 4 weeks and just started to feel tired. My boobs have grown yay! Today I did something stupid. I fell off my horse. I was only on her as I was getting photos of her to sell her :( I got winded and grazed my arm and it hurt a lot! I rested for the rest of the day and even had a sleep. I know there is nothing that can be done if I have armed the baby so I just have to wait for my scan in a few weeks :( feeling very sore and stupid.
Hope you are ok Mars, I am sure baby just fine, it's so tiny at mo that it's well cushioned. For what its worth when I was 7 - 8 weeks pregnant with DS2 i was on a majorly fast roller coaster at a theme park and was whooshing about at 100 miles an hour, it was only after I wondered if I hadn't done something very stupid! Also when I had DS2 I ended up having to go in and get my appendix out and was pregnant the whole time! Babies in the womb are very hardy! Hope you're not too bruised hun and congrats again xxQuote:

But just taking one drink makes the nausea worse.Quote:

Rosie, I am glad your fever is gone. Do you have another scan anytime soon??
Mars, Welcome! Sorry you fell off your horse. I hope your appointment gets here quick so your mind can be put to ease;)

Welcome Mars! Sorry about your horse accident- it's very hard not be concerned, I know, but I feel like at this stage any bumps won't affect the pregnancy much as the baby is literally a couple cells big! There is a lot of cushion for that tiny seed! I think the concern with a fall in pregnancy is when the baby/placenta is large enough to feel blunt force, especially if the impact occurs on your belly.

I started taking the unisom b6 mix ...just couldn't get through my day without it. I was soo sick. My grandmother passed away and i needed to be well enough today to go to her funeral.
I do not have a scan coming up... i am hoping if they dont hear the heart by doppler on the 4th they will do one for me. I doubt they will hear it because i will only be 9.5 weeks and my uterus is tilted back
Sorry about your grandmother Rosie:(
Does the unisom make you groggy in the morning??
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I am so anti-pills. I don't want to take anything if I don't have to but if this keeps up I may give in. It's tough bc i just did this- 10 weeks of it and I have nothing to show for it[emoji20].
So sorry about your grandma Rosie. It's so difficult to lose a loved one. I hope you ok and coping well.

Hi again ladies...
I'm so undecided if I should get the panorama test. I think the worst part for me is when they tell you the gender. It's so official. I almost just want to try and guess by u/s only so there could be some ambiguity/false hope. I just am so afraid of hearing boy again, but I know the gender is already determined and it is what it is.
I will think about it. The cost is a huge factor as well, it's $800 here, so it's a tough decision.
Did anyone here get harmony or panorama yet? I think panorama is a bit superior because it also checks for microdeletions, but please don't quote me on that.
I'm in uk and getting harmony test on Tuesday, it's £500 here and includes a lengthy scan. I'm nervous r about results but figure the sooner I know the sooner can accept our fate.
I am doing okay...it was very hard losing my grandma. It was unexpected as she was still vibrant and going strong. She had a sudden and massive heart attack. It is the first member of my family I have lost that is near and dear to me. Life can be so hard sometimes.
So i am still having a hard time with the nausea and eating. I have found the only things i want is fruit...french fries with catsup and quesadillas. How about everyone else???
So sorry to hear about your grandmother Rosie, especially how sudden it was.
Ugh I'm so nauseated constantly, can't really drink water so I'm drinking watered down juice or coconut water. Only feel like carbs mostly, and tea makes me feel sick, usually I love tea everyday...
Keepthefaith, yes you have a good point about accepting the fate. I have been pretending it's a girl and looking on line at all the cute pottery barn kids rooms for girls. Probably setting myself up for huge disappointment, but it's fun for now!
Maybe I will just get the panorama, we will see...
Hello, all! Sorry about your grandmother, too, Rosie.
I had two days of horrible nausea and vomiting, and today I'm back to my usual: only being sick if I don't eat frequently enough. I hope this means that everything is going well with the pregnancy; I have my first appointment/in-office scan on Monday!
My nausea has got slightly less severe in last few days though still hits me now and then, hoping it's cause I'm at ten weeks and things getting nearer the 12 week mark. 3 days till my first scan and harmony bloods. Eek scared x
