    2b, I know you're a bit of a worrier (like me) but I felt the same a few weeks back, symptoms seemed to come and go a bit. Once the sickness came back I wondered why I was ever worried and kind of hoped the symptoms would go away again (clearly no pleasing some people - haha)

    Now I just need you to catch me up and hold my hand as I go to the big thread :p Not long to go now xx

    :D:D:D I want to! I am wishing time away!

    I rang my local early pregnany unit, and they said they wouldnt see me unless I had bleeding or pain. So, I just need to learn to sit and be patient.

    I had a MMC in my first pregnancy and miscarried twins, which I expect is why I am a nervous wreck.

    2ba3c, in my first tri the only symptom I had was banging headaches, they were awful. I'd consider them migraines. Hope that helps xx

    Thanks Gillyx xx

    Sorry for worrying girls, and thank you for the support, I really do apperciate it. I feel like this is the only place I can come and talk about stuff at the moment!!

    My headache wont go away (although I dont think I would call it a Migraine, its not quite that painful).... I am pretty sure it is a dehydration one, but no matter HOW much I drink, I just cannot rehydrate myself.

    I think I'm going to try and get an appt wtih my GP tomorrow, I really just don't feel right.

    I have had a banging headache on and off recently! Good idea to get checked out though if you don't feel right xx

    I sometimes feel like all I do is moan at OH at the moment :D

    I used 4head constantly, I went to my GP who could only recommend paracetemol, drink frequently and eat little and often. It was the middle of summer and I could not look at light at all, spent the majority of my time in bed with a cold cloth on my head and the blinds and doors closed :(

    I'm another one suffering with my head this time around. I suffer with headaches and migraines normally but with my little girl my headaches cleared right up. Not this time tho :( I have had 3 really awful headaches so far and paracetomol doesn't seem to touch them at all. I use 4head too but I don't know why because it does naff all for me. I have to just go to bed with a cold cloth on my forehead and eyes. Really hope they don't continue all the way through.

    Oh Gillyx and ymakemesmile - its miserable isnt it :(:(:( ((BIG HUGS))

    That forehead, always gets in my eyes, not literally - but the menthal bit makes my eyes sting!

    I finally got rid of mine today, I think it might have been food related too but after I eat it went. I hope it stays away!

    It really is horrid, mine went just after 13 weeks I think. I had a brilliant pregnancy after that. So fingers crossed xx

  • Hi everyone!!

    So it appears my palpitations were a one off, not had them since and mw said they are reasonably normal unless dizzy/short of breath etc. I am concerned about my doctor however, I asked him for a fitnote as tomorrow is day 7 of sickness :( but he said he wanted to try me on anti nausea meds first. Had 1 about an hour ago as nausea was bad, tasted disgusting but not nauseous! For some stupid reason I decided to google the meds (buccastem 3mg) and it says it shouldn't be taken in 1st trimester unless absolutely necessary! I spat the remainder out, for me it's not worth the risk of any probs with baby so I'm going to phone back doc tomorrow and tell them I want a fitnote and not take no for an answer! I feel so confused just now, I don't want to be off work but im struggling to be in work! Grrrr!! OH is really annoyed after he went on google, my sickness isn't that bad, I can handle it just!

    Anyway I'll let you know what they say tomorrow and be less anti social, I haven't read any posts since earlier so apologies but I'll post tomorrow xx
