10-12 weeks

How are you all doing? My 12 week scan is less than a week away (27th) and my anxiety has shot up 😩 symptoms have really eased off too which I know is normal but not good for an overthinker 🤪🙏🏻

my scans on the same day and i’m feeling the same! i was feeling fine until monday and then the anxiety just hit me😩 it’s horrible isn’t it!🙈

My 12 week scan is tomorrow and I am pretty nervous! Still so sick and nauseous though 🥲

My symptoms have eased off too in the last week, I’m 10 weeks 1 day today. I’ve googled it panicking and it’s basically saying that the placenta is starting to take over and that’s the reason the symptoms are easing up x

My symptoms have eased off too! I'm 10 weeks + 5 and got my 12 week scan on 1st March, felt awful for a couple of weeks but started to feel much better from around 9 weeks. Helps me feel better knowing others are experiencing the same so must be normal! Hope your scan goes well 😊

I’m 10+5 and mine have eased aswell, still feel like I could sleep for a year, boobs feel bruised but the nausea has eased. My scan is 29th and I’m so nervous xx

Mine was yesterday went pretty good, tho sonographer sent me twice to toilet to empty my bladder during scan and also asked me go for a 15 min walk and jump around a lil , because she was not getting position

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?

Fatigue

I had a GP (it was a woman) tell me she’s never heard of fatigue or exhaustion in the first trimester and that my body shouldn’t be tired from “making a few cells” - she asked if I was depressed and if I wanted to keep the baby/if it was planned and was kinda blaming me on not getting out of bed enough. I’m usually a very busy person, who is always on the go. All my bloods have been coming back okay, but the exhaustion is next level. I said it just feels like I’ve had the flu for the last 6 weeks. She said well is it the flu? That I should be energised and never heard of women being so exhausted before. She was very rude and just feels like it’s my fault I feel this way.
