My husband just told me I need to eat healthier cause all I can manage at the moment is bland carby stuff.

Does anyone want my address to help me hide the body?
😂 I can definitely relate! Even now I'm in 2nd trimester I still can't stomach certain veg like broccoli, and I was a very healthy eater before pregnancy. I just want salty carbs and my husband keeps trying to stop me!

Hi guys 1st time commenting on this thread. 6 weeks and very happy to be pregnant. I've just been hit with nausea and exhaustion in the last few days and finding it very hard mentally as I have other children.my last pregnancy was very difficult and i naively thought this might be different. I feel extremely low and upset today facing the reality of the hard weeks ahead. I am ringing my doctor tomorrow to speak to them. I was offered meds my last pregnancy but declined as I was concerned taking anything but I think I might need something this time. Do they work? I bought seabands today and I'm not sure. If anyone has ANY ADVICE I would be so so grateful. I am feeling so bad and like I dont deserve to feel sorry for myself , I feel sorry for my other children who are so needy and I'm am useless the last few days. Any help much appreciated.
Congratulations!

with my third baby I was hit with horrendous nausea from 5 weeks. I’d never had it previously so really took its toll. I waited ages to get meds but that was silly as they did help a LOT. But the 10 weeks before I started them were horrendous, I could barely cope at all with my two older ones, and work. This time round the sickness started at 4 weeks and I held out until 8 weeks. The meds don’t help so much this time round, although I could have asked for a different prescription, but they take the edge off enough for me to function and look after the other kids. I’m now 27 weeks and just starting to be able to go without.

don’t hesitate to take the medication.

Ugh, I gave in and I’ve had a smoothie and an apple.
I had 6 oranges. Pretty sure the inside of a Jaffa cake is one whole orange 👍🏻

On the serious side, just eat what you can when you can. No point forcing food down.

Has anyone got any recommendations for good pregnancy/baby apps?
I downloaded what to expect and it’s cool it tells you the size each week and also has info to read also a community to talk on but I find majority of women are American 🇺🇸 so the care they receive seems very different but still nice to talk to people who are due the same time there are literally thousands on the September due date there is a forum for everyone x

Thanks I’ll have a look at that one! I’ve got Emma’s Diary but there’s only so many times a day you can look at the same one 😂 x

This may sound silly but read the community threads at your own risk as I’ve had to stop reading them as it started to make me
Anxious lucky the threads all have detailed titles x

this is exactly the same as me with mumsnet. I thought it might be nice to speak to people due around the same time and I lasted like 2 days on there. I thought I was anxious / worried but my goodness, it’s intense on there. I couldn’t cope with it at all.

If anyone is looking to chat to people specifically due around the same time the forum on babyandbump has a section for pregnancy groups which usually congregate in to due date months. I have used it quite a lot in the past and everyone has always been very pleasant

Same here I think I will just keep the app to look at the size of the baby but I am trying not to google things anymore because it just worries me. Have your boobs grown btw mine are growing already only asking because we are around the same time they are also very sore 🤣
