Diary of a yummy mummy wannabe: From poppy seed to birth

[first timer]

Hi am going to join as well (if that's ok?) I got bfp 4 weeks ago and am going for a scan on Friday as am not sure of my dates (think last period was April :0) I think am only about 7/8 weeks though. I've put a stone on since April and really want to keep it to a minimum as with my last baby I put on 3 stone and hated every minute of being pregnant and after as felt fat not pregnant. I loved my first pregnancy as I didn't put on much weight and had a lovely bump. Am going try to loss some of this stone and need to find some sort of diet that will work with pregnancy am also considering going back to spin class.

Anyhow I hope we all have a healthy/happy pregnancy.

The more the merrier!! So far I've managed to maintain my weight at between 85-86 kg but ideally would like to lose a bit once I start slimming world as I've been feeling super tired and out of breath just from walking and I've not even got a bump yet!

Kellie - hope you're feeling less panicky, hopefully it is all going well - they say all pregnancies are different

What food plan are you both following?

 

[Kellie mum of 4]

I am calorie counting at the moment i am using my fitness pal app and trying to stick to about 1700 calories a day what are you doing

 

[margarino]

At the moment I'm not doing anything but hoping to start slimming world just to have some structure.

At the minute am doing nothing am just "trying" to bd good although not getting far need to start but nausea is killing me and when I feel ok I seem to eat crap

 

[Kellie mum of 4]

Hi i had a scan at the early pregnancy unit they said it looks like i am only about 5 weeks pregnant so they couldnt say whether everything is ok or not although they said there is a bleed next to the sac so i can expect some bleeding and they told me i have to go back in 2 weeks when they will be able to tell me more as by then there should be a heart beat. Hope you other two ladies are ok

Hi hope everything goes well for you am sure it's s worrying time for you. I have my early dating scan on Friday morning looking forward to knowing how far along I am and when an due.

Take care and try not to worry

 

[Kellie mum of 4]

Thanks for your kind words it does worry me abit as i should be 6 weeks but i am trying to cling on to maybe i ovulated abit late but i got my bfp 2 weeks and 1 day ago so that would have put it a very early positive about 8 days past ovulation if there date is right so i dont think it is that positive but hopefully i will know more in 2 weeks time good luck for friday keep us informed x

 

[margarino]

Sorry the news wasn't more positive Kellie but hopefully you'll have better news in 2 weeks. Just take it easy, look after yourself and try not to worry.
