I’m still sleeping ok but I think that’s definitely down to having the bed to myself and being able to sprawl as much as I want and also my pregnancy pillow which is like hugging a cloud I used to sleep on my side but leaning on to my front so I just prop my pillow under bump/1 leg over it to stop me rolling more on to my front. Although I don’t think it would be possible now anyway - I’d just look like a seesaw 
I do occasionally wake up on my back and have a panic but I’ve read that you’ll wake up before any harm is done? Still massive panic every time though.

The tiredness has come back. Not full on fatigue all the time but half way through the day I'm having to go for a nap. Feel like an old woman.
Had some bleeding today so went to urgent care. They did tests but couldn’t do a scan until blood test results came back to check hcg levels were over 1500 (I’m only 5 weeks 6 days.) They’ve just rang and said my levels are high enough for a scan but next appointment isn’t til Thursday!
Anyone else had bleeding? It wasn’t a lot but it was every time I wiped and the nurse could see it in my urine sample and said there was a lot of it. Stressed!

Is this a normal pregnancy or IVF? Early bleeding very common with the latter, and I had loads of bleeds in my first 12 weeks.
remember it only takes a tiny bit of blood to look like “a lot”
hopefully it’s just some mild irritation to your cervix! Stay positive xx

It’s fine to sleep on your right? Left is just optimal.
the main thing is avoiding sleeping on your back after 28 weeks, but even then it’s not the end of the world if it happens - you just have to correct yourself as soon as you notice it. Don’t be so hard on yourself!
Just had the 12 week scan. The nub theory is 100% showing a girl 
like it’s just not up for debate in the pics / my partner said the same when he was looking at the screen. Like I almost feel like this has to be a prank because there’s no way I’m actually getting what I have always wanted. Baso I need to calm down

Going to be a long wait til Thursday to see! Thank you!
yeah you never know… you might get a supriseJust had the 12 week scan. The nub theory is 100% showing a girl
And the main thing is that they’re healthy
I’m nearly 11 weeks and have been spotting for the last week and a bit. I don’t have a job that I can just leave at short notice so I have to wait until tomorrow to go to the day mat unit. It’s so scary but it is quite ‘normal’ in early pregnancy so try not worry too much. Could you get a private scan in the mean time to help with nerves?
Had my 20 week scan this morning. We’re having a baby boy 
we’re sooo happy! I found the scan quite intense, my sonographer was really quiet while scanning which obviously sent my mind wild but all was well!

I had spotting at 5 weeks, it happened on a Thursday and they couldnt scan me until the following Thursday - the wait was agonising! All was ok. Like bambi said any blood always looks like a lot. Hope you’re ok and the wait flies by!
Congratulations I’ve got mine in a couple of weeks. Do they just stay quiet until the end then or do they give commentary as they go through and have checked ? I’ve not read up yet on what to expect !Had my 20 week scan this morning. We’re having a baby boy
I’d also be worried that sometimes in a scan they can’t see much / a heartbeat etc when it’s that early so might just cause you more worry. I’ve definitely read so many comments about bleeding and it being fine and normal, so don’t worry
Mine gave commentary during my 20 week scan and showed on the screen what she was looking at and when
she did have a very serious face on her at all times though!It’s crazy how many people have spotting and it’s fine but no one talks about it unless you’re pregnant. I had spotting at just under 7 weeks, it stopped over night then had a scan a couple of days later!
I had some this pregnancy on and off for about two weeks. They never knew what it was and baby is ok! Good luck xx
I'm really struggling 
Have just over a week until baby's due date and this past weekend is likely to be our last weekend as a three. Had hoped to be able to do something fun with our little one but I felt awful. Feel like I have a sinus infection because my head is so swimmy but I'm also not sleeping because I'm having the most horrific nightmares and have been having panic attacks throughout the day too. Felt so upset and guilty for not being able to take my little one out on Saturday that I forced myself to go out yesterday and now feel really rough so don't feel up to doing much in my house. I'm at such a loss of what I should do. I don't feel ready for this baby and I don't feel like I'm being a good mum to my little one either

I don't feel ready for this baby and I don't feel like I'm being a good mum to my little one either You’re a fabulous Mum and you being so worried about not being a good Mum just shows you are! your little one won’t remember not doing anything or going out, you’re about to give birth to a literal human, rest & take it easy, don’t be so hard on yourself! I’m sure your little one would just love a cuddle on the couch rather than going out anywhere. Save that for when babies here and you’re feeling better. Leave the house for your partner whilst you’re feeling rubbish. Enjoy cuddles with your little one as soon things will be different! I’m only 26 weeks but I’ve started worrying already about time with my little one and it soon being 4 of us rather than the 3 of us, so just use this time and enjoy it even if the house is a mess and you’re feeling tit 🤍I'm really struggling
I had some bleeding at 7 weeks. I went into full blown panic mode and feared the worst. I had a private scan and they confirmed baby was totally fine, that bleeding is quite normal and she explained it was something called a subchorionic hemorrhage causing it, which despite sounding very dramatic is basically your body adapting to all the changes going on. Just keep monitoring it if it continues and if you feel like you're bleeding excessively, as in soaking through a pad quite quickly, I'd call your EPU or 111 and explain it's worsening. Fingers crossed you you x
I’m sorry you’re feeling so rubbish.I'm really struggling
Just remember your little one is not going to remember this one weekend. They’d be more likely to clue into you feeling rough than realise they’d missed out on something fun. Enjoying quality snuggly time at home with mummy is just as important to LOs as the zoo or soft play. Crafts, baking, making a den on the sofa are all as fun if mum is there too x
