Take it off if you’re not feeling up to working. Pregnancy is the one time where you’re completely justified to take time off whenever you need to - not saying we should take the piss with it but if you need time off, take it. Hopefully the midwife gets back to you soon

Hey @Kitt did you manage to ring the EPU? And how do you feel today X
Hey yes called this morning after having more blood when I got up and some back pain. I explained that I’ve already lost one and now I’m having these symptoms so she booked me straight in for a scan but they couldn’t get me in until tomorrow. Just gotta wait til then to find out if everything’s ok. Fingers crossed.
So glad you're booked in. Tomorrow can't come quick enough. Thinking of you xx
Fingers crossed it’s all ok!
Will be thinking of you and I hope it is nothing to worry about xx
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and my baby has been head down from about 29 weeks. She’s not yet engaged but today started to get more pelvic pressure so wondering if she’s maybe starting to engage? I’m a first time mum so no idea, I haven’t dropped yet though. Any mums that have already had babies how did you know when they where engaged or did you feel different?
Good question, also looking for the answer, I am feeling the same, 36 weeks, baby head down and feeling pressure since yesterday, had midwife Friday who checked and confirmed she wasn’t engaged then, this is my 2nd baby but my first was breech and born by c section at 36 weeks.
Tbh, I've never felt them engage. And 2 of them didn't until labour.
But always had the pressure.
33 weeks is a tad early to engage as normally it isn't until after 34 weeks at least and some not until actual labour.
@Kitt thinking of you x
Ive never felt my 3 engage, and right up until my 39/40 week appointments they’ve always been “free”. As mentioned above, sometimes they don’t until labour. I’ve also never “dropped”
I am the same as this too. Never "Dropped"
The pressure has moved round to my groin area now so I’m not really sure what’s happening. Its not sore it’s uncomfortable I feel ok when I sit down it’s when I’m standing up was in work all day on my feet so probably didn’t help
All pregnancies are different but I think most of the time the nausea and sickness does go in the second trimester, my first pregnancy was symptomless too and this one I had nausea throughout the first trimester, I’m 28 weeks now just hoping it doesn’t come back
I feel like I’m constantly googling “is it safe to...” at the moment! Got in the bath today which was quite warm and then got straight on google to see if there were any warnings against it 
Can’t wait to hit the 12 week mark, I’m hoping it’ll help me chill out a bit but knowing me I’ll find other things to stress about!
@Upintheair83 I might have missed your update but did you find out the sex?

I started feeling a bit sicky week 7/8 still feeling sick
11 weeks on Thursday I had hardly any symptoms before now I feel just ugh all the time I bought some ginger shots to have and they really work and mint crumbles xOh bless you! It’s horrible isn’t it. I will try the ginger shots thank you. Roll on second trimester!I started feeling a bit sicky week 7/8 still feeling sick
Try fizzy drinks and fizzy sweets, that’s all that works for me (29 weeks and sick since 4 weeks
).
Im the same haha. Can I do aerobics? Is my shower too warm? Can I do a gentle yoga video on youtube (some of them specifically state not in first trimester, but i dont understand why). Can I have mozzarella and goats cheese on my pizza? HahaI feel like I’m constantly googling “is it safe to...” at the moment! Got in the bath today which was quite warm and then got straight on google to see if there were any warnings against it
i cant wait for second trimester!
It’s the worst, isn’t it? Mine started at around 6 weeks and I’m now a few days from week 14 and finally starting to feel better. It usually goes away in the second trimester. Hang in there
