Holy hell my nausea is bad! Anyone have any tips to help it? I remeber wearing sickness bands on my wrists before but can’t recall them helping much!
Girlsway I like drinking ginger ale for nausea. I've seen a bunch of products lately at the store for morning sickness - "Preggie Pops", "Preggie Drops", teas for pregnancy nausea, etc. Not sure if you have those in the UK. And I haven't tried them - since I have no reason to at the moment! - so I don't know how well they work!
Hi everyone x
Girlsway I noticed in Tesco yesterday they are selling the sickness bands, a little aromatherapy roll on for pulse points and some ginger with folic acid in. They were along with the breast pads etc
Thank you both! I actually bought some ginger ale the other day and gagged because it reminded me of feeling sick last time (irony!!) it’s annoying because I remeber it helped before! I’ve been nibbling ginger biscuits, oh the calories!!!!
Girlsway none of the at home remedies ever worked for me (wrist bands, ginger, crackers, etc). But diclegis was a lifesaver and it’s very safe. I felt like a human again after taking it.

I don't think diclegis is licenced in the UK? I agree tho that all the ginger etc is a pile of poo and doesn't work lol
The only thing that helped me (slightly) was lemon squeezed into water.
I’ve never heard of that before, greydore! Babybeau I’ll try that tomorrow I feel horrific!
I'm pretty sure Diclegis is literally vitamin B6 & Unisom, right? If you can't get the Diclegis maybe you can get those two things separately - both are considered safe. I used Diglegis in my last pregnancy but didn't find that it helped me much. It is the one medicine considered totally safe though. I've heard magnesium can help too (especially if you're low in it, which a lot of people are, plus you've been dieting!). With DS2 my only cure for nausea was to keep eating LOL - I was nauseated whenever I was hungry but unfortunately I was ALWAYS hungry in those initial weeks, thus always nauseated!!
I'm jealous of your nausea/feeling horrible, girlsway :) :)
ABC it is just those two things. I found that buying them separately for some reason didn’t work as well as the prescription (probably due to it being extended release). I’m sorry it didn’t help you, that sucks. Phenergan usually works well but makes people so tired they can’t function. You just can’t win with pregnancy nausea.

Don’t be abc! I jinxed myself! Enjoy whatever non gross feeling time you have left lol!
Also can’t win because once I got the nausea I convinced myself it’s another boy even though there’s no logic in it, maybe best to prepare myself!? :p
Girlsway I’m so sorry you feel so crappy. I had HG with my oldest and it was truly debilitating. I was so jealous of women who had easy pregnancies. Hang in there and don’t be afraid to call your doctor to try something.

Greydore oh that's interesting - yea I could see how the extended release would have a different effect.
Girlsway - I'm doing the same thing you are - over analyzing my symptoms (or lack of) and gender. It really is impossible to know though from symptoms.
I went to bed last night at 8:30 - exhausted, had a headache and was a bit dizzy. So I guess that's something. I do feel more tired this time than I remember feeling with my first two. I never really had fatigue with them.

I don’t remeber feeling tired with my son either but I keep falling asleep at 4/5pm on the sofa! But then maybe that’s because I have a 3 year old this time!
Not long now abc until Tuesday!
Oh crap!! It didn't let you just message me? So dumb!! Yes it worked!! I am so happy I found that clinic. I couldn't be more happy with everything! The actual FET was so serine and peaceful!!
How's it going on your end? Are you going to do another round soon!?

Hey Throwaway Panther!! That's exciting! Hoping you get good results this week!!!!
Having another "I don't feel remotely pregnant" day today. Sigh. The next 24 hours cannot go fast enough. I had a hard cry last night in front of DH, worrying about the baby. As I was worrying and crying he said "well, you're definitely more hormonal lately, so that's probably a good sign!". LOL. Probably true, although I'm a pretty emotional person naturally. But the outburst last night was kinda random. I'm also getting ANOTHER cold, so that's fun.
HGMama how are you? Honeybug, momof6blessings - are you guys doing ok? Robin is your u/s this week?
Girlsway - YES! That 4 pm to 6pm-ish time of the day is always when I'm feeling super tired!!! I've taken a few naps during that time of the day so far and when I don't nap around then I get pretty grumpy!!! It's so weird because most of the rest of the day I'm ok!
Abc! What time tomorrow? I’m excited to see your sweet baby!! ❤️

The gestational sac is only measuring 5 weeks 4 days & I should be 7 weeks. No sign of a fetal pole. I go back in another week for another scan but it doesn't look good.
I'm crushed beyond words right now.

Abc I'm so sorry, there's just no words [emoji22] The next week is going to be an absolute nightmare. The wait is the worst and the rollercoaster of hope and despair exhausting. Please reach out when you need to. We are here for you [emoji173] Some of us have walked in your shoes so we truly do understand. Biggest hugs xxoo Wish I could offer you comfort in person.

Abc I’m sorry the scan didn’t go as expected but just wanted to mention I joined babycentre since concieving and have seen SO many people have early scans to be told they are earlier than they assumed but when they went for their 12 week scan the dates evened out! (Literally seen like 10 posts)
I know it won’t help you feel better but just had to mention especially where you’ve had no bleeding or pain either! Got my fingers crossed for you and hopefully in a week that little flicker will be clear as day! Xoxo
Oh no ABC - so sorry to read this...praying for good news soon.
Aww no I am so sorry to hear this ABC. But maybe it was just too early!!!??? The heart doesn't start bearing until 5.5 weeks to 6 right?.. I am hoping and praying for you so hard!!

Thanks all. Girlsway, I hope that's what's going on. Being off a week and a half though seems like a lot, especially since I know I O'd on CD15. Doctor said the yolk sac was smooth and a "normal" shape, which is one good thing as sometimes if something is wrong it will be abnormally shaped. He said not to give up hope yet. I'm still almost in disbelief right now. The moment in the ultrasound when I realized things weren't right was awful. The tech said she couldn't see a fetal pole, then she started measuring the sac and I could tell it was off, and then she basically rushed through the rest of the ultrasound and told me the doctor would talk to me about it. I don't think I even really got to see the yolk sac closely. Now I wish she would have at least printed a picture anyways so if I do lose this baby, I would have that.
Only thing to do now is pray for a miracle.

ABC came on to check on you...wish things had been more definite. It’s so hard being in limbo, but will not give up hoping for you that this baby should your sticky bean, just a bit shy and that it will show itself nice and strong next week.
I know the wait will be agonising, so sending you so so many :hugs:
Abc i will pray for your baby and wish all is ok next week:pray::LotsofLove:
ABC I had an early scan with dd2 because of bleeding and they could only see a sac. Praying that things are just a little behind and your little bean will show up next week x
Hey ABC (and all you fabulous ladies!),
I have been reading this thread but not posting, because I DID get a big, fat positive a week or two ago...but I wanted to wait until I knew the pregnancy would stick before I joined the group. I am 42 and have been trying for a long time. Only had one other positive last year, and it ended in an early miscarriage/chemical.
I wasn't going to officially post here until I felt more secure with this pregnancy. Well, after a week of blood draws, the doctor told me to stop taking progesterone and that the betas aren't increasing/it's not a viable pregnancy. I still wouldn't have posted, but I just wanted to say ABC, I might know a little of what you're going through and I'm sending you all good thoughts and prayers.
But I hope hope hope and pray you get a miracle and all is well with your little bean!
Sending love and hugs. I think we are all here for you.
Thanks again all. I'm sorry, BacktoSchool, for what you are going through too. It's beyond painful. If this baby doesn't make it, it will be my 3rd m/c in a row and I don't know how I'll survive it this time.
BBB do you remember how far along you were when you had that scan?
Hang in there Abc xo there's still a chance this will all be a bad memory and things will be looking up next scan as everyone has said [emoji173]
Fwiw I thought the same about mc number 3 and the thought of it possibly happening nearly undone me. When it did happen though I actually coped with it the best [emoji53] whether because I was somewhat numb or disconnected I don't know. I only know it made me feel stronger than I've felt in a looong time (after the initial grief of course) and that really helped me cope.

I was around 6 weeks I think, the Dr mentioned possible ectopic which I knew nothing about at the time and had never even thought about, so I was left worrying for a week but thankfully everything was ok. I did continue to bleed until 12 weeks though
Hello ladies, I'd like to join this thread after getting my bfp. I'm about 5 weeks and due November 1st.
I have 3 boys and 1 little girl angel who was stillborn at 39 weeks. I swayed for pink for about 5 months so I'm praying I get a baby girl to keep.
I'm sorry for those of you that have had losses x
Huge congrats iggle and so sorry to hear about your loss!
How have you been feeling? My nausea is still so bad and I’m struggling to get on with my days!
