Struggling!

I am 6w 5d and really struggling with nausea and tiredness. And it’s starting to really get me down.
I’ve been prescribed 2 different types of medication and they’re not really touching the sides.
We are meant to be flying to Spain next Sunday, does anyone have any tips or tricks to help prevent these symptoms?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you ♥️

I don't have any advice to help unfortunately, but all I can suggest is make sure you've got health insurance incase you get dehydrated if you are struggling to keep food and water down. I've just come back from an all inclusive in Spain and I had a complete aversion to the hotel food, even thinking about it now makes me feel sick. We ate out a lot. Eat whatever you can stomach, make sure you take your vitamins and maybe take some healthy protein/fibre snacks. I barely ate any protein as I couldn't eat the meat, or fiber as I couldn't stomach the veg and avoided the salads.
I hope you have a better experience xx

Have you also tried Xonvea? Women who were not able to get relief from the usually prescribed pills have written this was the one that helped. As it’s expensive GPs tend to not prescribe it unless necessary. I’d suggest reaching out to try this one if not already.

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
