I'm 8 weeks today. I've had 1 appointment with a midwife at my doctor's and I've got another appointment with the midwife I think I am seeing throughout my pregnancy on Tuesday morning.  I can't wait for my scan date to come through - I just want to make sure that there is something actually in there!! x

We're 6 + 5, and got another load of blood tests on Monday (I'm rhesus sensitised, but other half is rh neg too, so not overly worried, but better safe than sorry). Booking appointment with midwife on the 16th. I'll be glad to get all the blood work results back. Got an uti at the moment too which isn't causing me any discomfort which is worrying me. Got next week off to watch the Olympics and to rest and chill out before getting results back. Trying not to worry about anything but the emotional side of things is starting to kick in and I'm not used to being unable to hide how I'm feeling around people.
Apart from the worrying niggles things are going well and we're still feeling incredibly lucky and excited!
Back to Olympics! x

I'm also 6+5 today. Feeling rubbish, making the most of my baby's naptime to sleep so the house is a mess at the moment! Annoyingly i'm exhausted all day but then can't sleep for ages when i go to bed at night! Feeling very sick, same as last time really so i'm taking it as a sign that all is going well. Had booking in on tuesday so just waiting for the letter from the hospital about my scan. Won't be until early Sept though. xxx

I rung my community midwife office as soon as i found out and my appointment was at 6 weeks. Last time the docs receptionist told me i mustn't ring them until i was 8 weeks, so i didn't and when i had my booking in my midwife was very annoyed that they were giving wrong info out, as they like to see you asap in our area. Didn't see a doctor throughout my last pregnancy, except when i had a uti at 5 weeks and had to go to the out of hours unit.

I'm 6+3 and my lord dont i feel awful!! 24/7 nausea & struggling to eat & drink, weeing non stop, exhausted, really bloated & boobs starting to get slightly sore. Think being emotional is starting to kick in too lol, feel like weeping at most things lol. Seen my doctor straight away 2 weeks ago, she booed an early scan but still not had the appointment through!! But had emergency scan on tuesday & seen my little bubs with a beautiful strong HB I'm waiting for this scan date which i'm guessing will be around 7-8 weeks & i see midwife on weds so she will book my 12 week scan. Shall also ask her about my nausea as think i may have hyperemesis again, was told though to expect it again! Xx

8 + 2 if we pretend it is sunday (it's only 8 mins away!) I have my mw appointment at the childrens centre on Monday, and my scan is in almost 4 weeks!

Sickness has passed, I am amazed as I had it so bad last time and was also told to expect it to get worse with subsequent pregnancies! I am a bit worried as I am already showing signs of my hypermobility again, I have a split rectus already (your tummy mmuscles part too soon, and you get a ridge when you sit up!) so going to ask mw to refer me back to my old obstetric physiotherapist, she is fantastic, but the waiting list is a mile long, so the sooner the better. My jaw has been really bad too as all of my ligaments really loosen up, and I have pain in my feet, but think it may also be down to the fact I fell again so quickly after mc and body didn't have chance to fully rid the hormones that were flying about!

I feel a bit sickly and dizzy at times, but touch wood, am feeling really well, the only real issue is the insomnia and runny tummy, but I can cope with that!

It's getting harder not to slip up and say something, I need a big piece of gaffa tape for my mouth! We were at a family party tonight and joking about being heavily pregnant at hubby's cousins wedding in March just to annoy her, and I nearly said "ha I will be!!!" Me and hubby had to exchange a quick giggle, and my SIL was saying "what, what?!" we just laughed it off fortunately, and they all thought I was on G&T, but it was really lemonade!!!

I'm still feeling nauseous and dry retching is awful cant eat any fruit or veg without being sick so am struggling confined different things to eat! My legs are really itchy had this all through last pregnancy too and am really bloated with a definite bump! Hoping I can keep it hidden for another week until after scan x

I'm 9 weeks today by period dates, dont have scan til 31st so wont know for sure til then. Still feel horrible all day at the mo, hopin it will pass soon xx

I'm 10+3 by my dates but had an early scan last Friday & I was measuring 9+3 which would make me 10+6 today. My 12 week is booked in for 22nd August. All going well so far but I'm dying to know that everything is still ok, 22nd seems ages off. 

I had my booking in at 6 weeks & have been put under shared care as had 2 previous miscarriages & had a fibroid removed a few years ago. Still waiting for consultant appointment to come through but that should be arouns 16 weeks.

We have told our closest friends & family but really don't know how I'm going to keep it secret for another 2 weeks. I'm so bloated that I'm having to wear baggy clothes to hide my bump. Completely gone off tea & coffee & usually have around 4 cups a day in work & I can't stop yawning in the afternoon. I'm sure some people will have guessed by now but don't want to say anything.

I'm being a bridesmaid for my friend in 5 weeks & due to have dress fitting in next week or 2 which I'm dreading as I know it wont fit. My boobs will be touchig my chin!! xx

i'm 9+3 today, not feeling too bad, not much sickness, seen to be able to stay awake more, although i am having a little extra in the morning as its school hols.

I think i'm getting bigger but clothes are fitting fine (as they are a little to big for me anyway) although when i'm sat in my jeans they seem to be digging in! I look huge when i let myself out!!

I can't help but worry there's something wrong and that i'mm going to be devistate at my scan... normal i guess, as i had the same with the others

oh yeah (just as i'm sat feeding dd) not my boobs but my nipples are more sensitive, hurt a little when she if feeding but bearable..... good sign i hope.
