Weight gain
I cannot stop eating (mostly sweet things) and have already gained a stone already and I’m only 13 weeks. I’m worried about how much weight that means I’ll put on throughout the whole pregnancy 😭 but I literally can’t help myself, I’m starving all the time and always want chocolate!

Me too!! Can’t stop 🙈
I could have written this in my first pregnancy. You are probably fine but just a word of caution, I think I was gaining and craving due to the terrible case of gestational diabetes I had. Worth a mention to your midwife. Headaches and excessive thirst along with crippling fatigue an hour or so after meals or snack with carbs/sugars were also symptoms. But I hope your cravings are just normal pregnancy cravings.

Finally packed 🥳 but still no date?
Today I have finally packed my hospital bags 👏🏼 38 weeks on Monday and 3rd baby so a bit late but I’m due a planned c section at 39 weeks although I still don’t have a date and im stressing.
Really don’t want to go into natural labour myself before and end up in an emergency section. 🤦🏻♀️ Is anyone else still waiting for a date??

When to start buying baby stuff
Hi all, when is okay to start buying some outfits and dummies and you know just little things? I am 13+1 weeks today and we had the 12 weeks scan which was great and we also got back our NIPT test which indicated no problem either.
I had a miscarriage earlier this year (in June), so I really don’t wanna jinx baby boy or make it into a huge thing.

26 weeks glucose test twins
I know a lot of people are generally scared about this test, but honestly, in my experience today, it was straightforward and not bad at all . The drink was thick and tasted like soft lemonade with a taste of honey towards the end (I don't know why it had the aftertaste, but it was a good drink) 🤣
I just felt tired after towards the end (obviously sugar crash), then took my second lot of bloods, then I was on my merry way.
So I spent most of the day resting and trying to just keep myself distracted and ended up never getting the phone call amd my results came back normal so overall I'm happy about that and I hope this post might ease people's anxious thoughts about the process but you got nothing to worry about. Again, my experience was different, but everyone's experiences to the test are different, and that is normal, too, btw.
But let me know how you guys get on with the test.

Nervous
Has anybody ever had a chemical pregnancy and felt so nervous to try again because the thought of having another one if so, how did you guys overcome the fear of wanting to try again but also nervous enough not to want to because July 31 I found out I was pregnant and August 14. I ended up having a chemical pregnancy and I really want to try again but I’m just anxious because I don’t want to experience that kind of heartbreak ever again.

36 weeks and 6 days
So I'm 36 weeks and 6 days pregnant and I am 2 cm dilated. Hopefully my little girl will hold out a little longer until the first of October since we will have money for gas for the car then. Only 8 days way. Hopefully it's slow progressing.
