I forgot to say but I didnt go for the mima pram in the end I am having the cybex e-Priam simply flowers I am so excited about the pram
So we’ve got a glo egg but it’s not been plugged in for the last 2 months I think for first time parents in the first few weeks it’s really handy to know the temp of the room but now we just know if you know what I mean? Our house is pretty warm so we don’t use any blankets at the mo. Currently baby is just in his sleepsuit and he’s fine!15 weeks already! Wow. How have you found things in terms of feeding routine? Any recommendations for anything that has workef for you specifically? My friend has recommended getting a glo egg for room temperature.
LOVE facebook marketplace! Got a new next2me for £40!For things like this it’s worth having a look on Facebook market place. I got a gro egg for £5 and an Angel care bath support for £10, both in practically new condition!
You can do it. The first trimester is HARD. I mean, all of pregnancy is, but I think the bone aching exhaustion of the first tri is just the worst tiredness ever. It will pass, and you can make it through xI’m having a day where I feel really overwhelmed with everything. I feel exhausted and sick. I was going to do a shorter day at work but my workload means I won’t be able to.
I’m starting to doubt whether I can do this. I’m only 6w 3 days.
Try and push through it lovely, first trimester hormones can make you feel/think all kinds of things. Actually pregnancy in general can make you feel like you’ve lost your marbles but it does get easier I promise. Somewhere along the line the weight just lifts Go easy on yourself xxI’m having a day where I feel really overwhelmed with everything. I feel exhausted and sick.

Make sure you look after yourself, I know work seems important right now but your health and baby's is 100 times more important. I have even posted about being worried about work while being on maternity so I really understand the work stress!I’m having a day where I feel really overwhelmed with everything.

me too! It’s fab. Also the grow egg… my son was born in a heatwave and it was always bloody red shouting at meLOVE facebook marketplace! Got a new next2me for £40!
Yep I have this - mine was picked up after the 12 week blood test so very frustrating that you should have been told about it already! From what I’ve learnt some trusts don’t test for it. Have they told you if your treatment will be changing at all? I am having two extra growth scans (currently waiting for the first one now!) and have been prescribed aspirin - mine was not super low though - just under 0.4 if I remember correctly. There are some good NHS info leaflets around if you google it!I had my 25 week midwife appointment today, and I was told I have low PAPP A levels. They said they sent a letter informing me in APRIL but I never received it!! Any of you ladies been told the same thing? The midwife said not to worry as it can be quite common nowadays!
Ah that’s annoying try and and keep yourself busy (easier said than done). My 20 week scan next week is booked at 4pm also annoyed as that means I only get like an hour off workI’ve got my scan on Thursday and think the scanxiety is starting to kick in the worst it’s also not until 1.40! Feel like the day is going to drag!!!
Apparently a letter was sent but I didn't get it and no one decided to mention it until now!! I have a consultant appointment booked and two growth scans, but nothing was mentioned about aspirin!! I will drop them a message and ask about that then. I don't even know the exact figure I'm low by as they have now only just resent the letter! I was worried at first especially after googling it for the first time, but the more I've read the more it seems like it usually works out fine in the end!Yep I have this - mine was picked up after the 12 week blood test so very frustrating that you should have been told about it already!

I won’t lie I take three hours paid leave even if it’s just a ten min Appointment up the road. I work with all men non of them have children so they don’t really know the process. Then I go shopping or to McDonald’s. Am I terrible personAh that’s annoying try and and keep yourself busy (easier said than done).

im so jealous!!! I’ve been told I have to take leave as a) There’s too many pregnant people on my unit and b) I decided to have my baby at the hospital rather than the one I work at!I won’t lie I take three hours paid leave even if it’s just a ten min Appointment up the road.
