Re: March 2024
Kmor and Charly what symptoms are you having now? As we are all almost exactly the same date I wondered how you’re feeling?
I’m feeling quite sick most of the day and have to nap in the afternoon! Also having mild pains/ more like my body is moving around a bit down there, only started a couple of days ago.
Sadly still spotting on/off too, so wish this would go away!

Re: March 2024
I feel nauseous all day and it only passes when I’m eating really - I can’t even drink water as it makes me feel so unwell. I haven’t actually been sick but feel like I could be 24/7. I’m also really tired and my boobs are painful. But I’d take all the symptoms if it means baby is safe
Gosh I bet you wish the spotting would stop.. hopefully not long now! When we had our scan, the nurse said that I might experience some spotting over the coming weeks as she could see where baby had implanted, had damaged some blood vessels so said it might come out over the next few weeks. So good of her to warn us so we don’t immediately think the worst! Xx

Re: March 2024
The nausea is bad isn’t it! I have had two days where it’s not been there and it freaked me out. I go to Mumsnet for everything because I like real stories over doctor Google and people do say it comes and goes sometimes.
Also the heartburn, I go from starving (as I wake up at 6am!) to having the worst heartburn just from one piece of toast/ small bowl cereal and that lasts most of the day too.
Yes sore boobs too and they’ve already grown so much I’m going to get a new bra today, nothing fits!
Oh that’s so good they warned you about possible bleeding, I wish they had found a reason for mine. In my head I’m saying it’s where it’s burying in further and everything is moving around down there.
Do you plan on another scan between the last one and the 12 week one? I’m not sure I can wait another whole month!

Re: March 2024
Sorry about the delay ZLC. How are you?
So I wasn’t going to have another scan but I think I might cave and try get a private scan towards the end of next week. My nausea seems to have disappeared over the last couple of days which did make me worry a bit. All my other symptoms are still there and I know it can be v common for nausea to come and go but i think ill get another scan just for reassurance next week. How about you? X

Re: March 2024
Hi Kmor,
That’s interesting as mine was awful on Sunday- I couldn’t leave the house until the evening to walk my dog but then since then it’s faded off. Yesterday was mild and today I haven’t had any at all which has been really scaring me.
Spoken to friends and they said it comes and goes but it’s worrying at the time. I’m sure it will come back with a vengeance and we will be missing the moments we can function normally!
I have my midwife appointment on Friday and hoping after that I’ll know when the 12 week scan is exactly. When I do I’ll book a private one in between if there’s a week between them kind of thing.
I’m 8w 3d at the moment, how far are you?
I’m still petrified most days that it will go wrong but also hopeful.

Re: March 2024
Hi so I had my midwife appointment today, she was lovely which is good!
I have my scan booked for 31st May which would make me 12+6. I don’t think I’ll be able to wait another month so I will likely book one for 2 weeks time.
(They called me this afternoon to book this, you don’t book at the time).
Have you been feeling any little twinges/ light cramping at all? I have had a fair bit on and off the last 10 days ish. Makes me worried but then apparently normal as things move around.
Sickness has been back a bit but definitely not as bad, she said that’s likely just it wearing off a bit as you near the 2nd trimester (although that still feels like ages away!)
Hope you’re all well x

Re: March 2024
Hey - good news that you’ve got your scan booked in and your appt went well. I’ve had a few mild twinges but not many really but my nausea is bad again. I’ve had 2 really bad days this weekend and my food aversions have got worse, which is a bit frustrating. Im usually a pretty healthy eater but I’m finding it really difficult to eat vegetables and white meat/ fish. I feel like potatoes, beige food and fruit is all I seem to be able to manage. Hoping that dies off soon so I can eat a plate of veg hahaxx

Re: March 2024
Hi guys hope you all are well. Can i please ask a question. I had my transfer last Tuesday i been getting alot of leg pain in the last few days. Has anyone else had this.
Re: March 2024
Hi MSS. Good luck with your tww. I’m afraid I haven’t experienced this before but it could just be a symptom caused by a change in activity level or hormonal. I’m not sure though x

Re: March 2024
Hey ladies. How are you all getting on?
I had my widwife appointment last week, got totally overwhelmed and panic booked a scan last Friday haha anyway baby was measuring bang on 10 weeks and I can’t believe how different they look from the 7.5 week scan! They were waving and wriggling loads
I’ve just had my appt through for the 12 week scan and it’s not until 4th June… which will make me 13w4d which just seems so late. I was really hoping it would be closer to 12 weeks so we could start telling our close friends and family.. think I’ll be ringing every day now for a cancellation haha xx

Re: March 2024
Hi KMor,
Sorry I’ve only just seen this!
Ah what a lovely sight! I’m 11w4 now. Had scans at 6,7,8 weeks then my sickness suddenly stopped at 9w3 and hasn’t returned… half of me is so panicked but the other half is listening to others who’ve had this and a successful pregnancy so
My scan is also at 13w next Friday which seems like forever to wait but I’m also now really scared of having another scan (which is why I’ve not been private after symptoms went).
How are your symptoms?

Re: March 2024
Ps regarding your meds- the clinic said estrogen until 12 weeks and progesterone until 16 as I had bleeding so need it for longer.
Will you just suddenly stop taking it or wean off of it?
The internet seems to like weaning but the clinic didn’t mention it.
I feel like I’ve asked them 1000 questions so just wanting other’s opinions before I bother them again!

Re: March 2024
Hi ZLC. I think it’s totally normal for symptoms to wear off when the placenta takes over - everyone is soooo different so I think it’s hard! Mine eased for a few days but then I’ve felt nauseous constantly - I was hoping it would ease off by now as I’m 12 weeks tomorrow! I did manage to get a cancellation for a scan so it’s next Wednesday now, making me 12w5ds - v pleased about that!
Re medication - I’m the same as you, supposed to stop estrogen at 12 weeks and then progesterone at 16. I think I’ll actually keep taking oestrogen until Monday (12w3ds) as the clinic seemed confused about my dates
and then I might just half my dose for a few days and come off them completely by 13wks. Not sure about the progesterone - I’ll definitely stop injecting at 16weeks but not sure about the pessaries. I might actually ring my clinic and see what they say xx

Re: March 2024
Hi KMor,
Ah that’s good news about your scan! The first date they gave me was at 13+6! I said erm do I really have to wait so long!? She took ages and eventually found me the one at 12+6 so I couldn’t be bothered to argue further! Now I wish I had though as another week is killing me!
Oh I’m envious of your sickness (never thought I would say that!) I still can’t believe it’s not there as it was so bad.
Yes my clinic due date is 7th Dec but at all three scans I’ve been measuring two days smaller so I think the NHS will make its 9th Dec (if all is ok obviously).
On that basis I think I’ll keep taking it for a few days longer too and maybe half it soon. I’m on patches every 3 days and 5 pills a day. Progesterone I’m just on 3 pessaries a day, I didn’t have to inject as my level was quite high. I think you’re right, I’ll ask the clinic! I feel like such a pest but I guess that’s what we pay them so much for!

Re: March 2024
So I emailed the clinic to ask if I just stop medication or wean off it and they said:
Regarding the estrogen, reduce to 2 tablets a day for 3 days and then stop.
With the progesterone drop the morning dose for 3 days and then stop.
I can’t really believe we weren’t told this sooner! 12 weeks is tomorrow for me. Oh well, just as well I asked!
Obviously it may vary for you as you’re injecting but good to know it’s not a useless question!

Re: March 2024
It is a good job that you asked! I think I’ll continue with what i’s planned but I’m going to ring Care on Tuesday morning too! Thanks for sharing
Hopefully the bank holiday keeps us occupied and then it’ll be scan week! Xx
