Mounjaro mums need advice

I’m on week 4 of 2.5mg and I keep seeming to have the same issue - nothing sounds or looks good to eat so I tend to forget to eat then I go past the point of hunger and feel sick and dizzy then I can’t stomach any food. Any advice on how best to deal with? Perhaps meal prep small meals or no carbs so it’s light? Any advice welcome

Hey I felt the exact same! The sickness was horrific I believe injecting in certain areas help prevent it but don’t quote me on that.
I realised very quickly it was best to avoid carbs and rich & spicy meals.
Try eat breakfast lunch & dinner and avoid snacking. Even if they are small meals at least you are fuelling your body xx

Definitely don’t skip meals. I got so sick, my blood pressure plummeted and I had to go to the ER. Meal prep small meals, prioritize protein and hydration above all, set timers to make sure you’re eating something. The severity of the food noise stopping does calm down over time, the first doses are the most severe on appetite.

Final growth scan update 💜

I had my final growth scan this past Thursday!

At my appointment on Tuesday…
My midwife struggled to feel where the baby was and thought they might be head up… so even she thought that's ‘breech’ so I booked a private scan just to be absolutely sure.

I’m so happy to say — baby’s head has been down the whole time! 😂💜 Exactly where they should be, ready to come any day now… my due date is 14 August 🥹

Baby is in perfect health and weighs 6 lb 11 oz — growing beautifully 💪✨

I’ve let the midwives know, especially since it really felt like she was pushing me towards the hospital againg and talking about needing a section when there was actually nothing to worry about at all!

This is when I was worried, in case, but definitely going ahead with my home birth exactly as planned
🥹💜💜💜

So relieved!!!!
My body knows exactly what it’s doing.
Everything’s ready…
Just waiting for our baby to decide when it’s time 💜

Pregnant again

So I'm a FTM 5.5months PP and just found out I'm pregnant again! We did a private early scan and estimated to be 5+5 at the moment. Absolutely not planned this time (although we did always want another one, just not this soon!)
Anyone else been in the same boat and can tell me it'll all be okay?! Freaking out a bit here! 🙈
