Healthy eating 🍓🍇🍌

Hello 👋🏻 I’ve developed the worst food aversion for fruit. Even the smell can make me gag! I’m worried I’m putting on too much weight as I’m struggling to keep fit too and can only manage a 30 min dog walk daily. Does anyone have any tips to making sure I’m eating enough of my 5 a day/ staying healthy? Currently 13 weeks 🤰🏻Thank you!

Have you tried making smoothies with frozen fruit/veg? Daily walking is good, also swimming/yoga/pilates. Try to reduce carby/fatty/sugary foods. Well-balanced, wholegrain options, sufficient protein, and high in fibre

Fresh orange juice! 1 of your 5 a day and plenty of vitamin C! X

I hadn’t even thought of that! 🙈 Thank you!

thank you - I’ll try smoothies! I really need to reduce my carbs but it’s all I’m craving! 🙈 yoga is a good shout 🥰

@Emily there should be no strong smell with frozen ethier. Don't worry, I understand! For the 1st trimester, the only foods I could really stomach were carby foods. Everything was mainly beige foods! I also wasn't able to exercise due to nausea. My plan is to fix my diet and start exercising again now (2nd trimester). However, this has been delayed due to currently being sick with covid lol x

I used to go to the gym multiple times a week but have actually cancelled my membership! Oh no! Hope you feel better soon 🥺

@Emily thanks lovely! Yes, my membership has been cancelled, too. I'm just going to do prenatal classes instead x

C - section

Hello lovelies, I’m getting closer to my date of c section.

Can I ask how it all went for you? I felt prepared and now I have this awful feeling what if I bleed out! I’m sure that’s not the case. But I just wondered how it went, and how the aftermath was. I have seen on social media people say it’s horrendous but then I speak to friends and family and they’re like yeah it’s not easy but you can cope! You can walk, etc. I think it’s the unknown… lol!

Also were you all sick during your procedure and did you all get terrible trapped gas? If so what tips do you have xx

Just want to sleep again! 🫩

I wake up around 8.30am, have some cereal, meditate/pray for a bit, make a cuppa and then by 10am I’m tired again and could easily nap. My iron levels have been checked and were fine. Is it just me or is anyone else feeling like this? I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant 👀

Can you see anything? I’m 12 DPO 🙏

My own opinion is that this is inconclusive (can maybe see a vvvfl but could also be an indent too hard to tell) but curious what others see

Princess birthday party

My child will be turning 5 over the summer and they’ve asked for a princess party but keep changing their mind on which princess they’d like to most their party so have said I can choose 🙈 which princess would your child have chosen at a similar age or if you’ve been to a few princess parties which one was best?

20 week scan!

I had my scan today! All was good, she was very stubborn though so it took ages to get all the measurements. No cleft lip from me being on Ondansetron for my sickness (I’m still unwell everyday).
However, I currently have a low lying placenta- has anyone had this before? I have to have another scan to check on it later on.

They asked if I knew what I was having and thankfully confirmed she is indeed a girly whirly.
I did ask for them at the end to show my husband the “burger” so he could visibly see no willy 😂

I’m so glad my 8 week blood test was right 🥳 a big 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻 to soooo many saying they’re a waste of money and not right so early on 😂 (not ladies in this group, but I’ve seen so many comments in other groups that are always so negative).
