Ladies,
I'm off for a scan tomorrow, and feeling so nervous.

I broke out in hives a couple of days ago, and went to the Dr yesterday.
He was really concerned, and didn't want to prescribe antihistamines.
He said :
"If you had 3 sons already I would prescribe it, but this is a precious first pregnancy" - My Husband was like 'sons?', and then realised it's a cultural thing.
So I went home and used Calamine lotion, and did oat baths,& witch hazel, but this morning it was even worse and has spread.
Saw the same Dr an hour ago, and he's booked me in for a scan tomorrow to check on the babies progress, if it all looks strong, then he'll put me on Piriton.
What a palava, starting to wonder if I am allergic to pregnancy !

Dreamsister, I had one or two good days but then it came back. I think you do start to get used to the hormones.

Kc- mine started at 5-6 and other than a couple good days, is still going strong and yucky and I am 8.5w.

MrsSparkles, so sorry you are having issues. That was definitely weird of your doc to say. Has this ever happened when you are not pregnant? Known allergies? Maybe google can help. Hope you get some relief and see a strong healthy baby tomorrow.

My sickness started this time about 6 wks im over 11wks now and its definitely easing. I'd isn't get any sickness in my 1st two pregnancies and the last two stopped around 11wks so it should be done soon!

Girlie Cat - never had anything like this before.
He's wondering if I could have the early onset of PuPPP - I had to google it, sounds horrific so please no !

He's an older Indian Gentleman, and he's obviously just of that old school 'Boys are more valuable than girls' mindset.
So weird though, as look at all of us desperate for girls !

Love your picture All Blue!

Good luck at your scan today, Sparkles!!

Just curious ladies (boy moms), did y'all lose weight or gain in the 1st tri with your sons? I remember losing weight with my son (I had some weight to lose), and gaining with my girls (I also had weight to gain). Just curious! Also, did you break out a little and did your boobs get bigger or smaller in the first tri, and did you feel like you were starving to death?... I am so tired of googling. I know all pregnancies are different and symptoms don't matter... just appease me, I may never get a scan I can obsess over! haha

Thanks for asking about me, Girliecat.

I'm OK. I still don't have any answers about what's happening with my pregnancy yet, but I have an ultrasound in 40 minutes, so hopefully I'll know something soon. My pregnancy symptoms still feel very extreme to me, and I've gained 22lbs since three weeks ago, so if I'm only having one baby I'll be wanting a medical checkup ASAP to find out why the extreme symptoms and weight gain is happening. I hope I'm healthy.

Good luck Serenity. I hope you get good news.

Mrs.Sparkles- good luck on your scan today too. Looking forward to good news and maybe a pic of baby.
