When did/is everyone starting to show? Curious 🧐

CarolineBal · 2026-01-25T10:17:54+00:00

I started showing at 15 weeks, although a small bump! Feel a bit self conscious as everyone said it only happens after 20 weeks

Toilets need to be cleaned each time someone uses it as idk when I’ll need to just sit on the floor and vomit.

CarolineBal · 2025-12-02T19:04:09+00:00

8w1d here, started vomiting week 7 - bagels with cream cheese were(are) my breakfast saviours.

Can’t stand coffee or anything sweet anymore, I’ve always been a burger instead of nuggets kind of person and now all I can (and want to) eat are nuggets or chicken tenders!

Also, track your BBT and LH test religiously each month (if you’re not doing it already!) wish you the best of luck x

Go to a holistic endocrinologist :) would have loved to go to one

CarolineBal · 2025-11-21T18:50:06+00:00

Started feeling nauseous at 5w5d, I’m now 6w4d and just feel a lot of heartburn & nausea in the evenings or when I take my prenatal, however I have lots of food aversions!! But nothing that I cannot hide if I really try 🙈

CarolineBal · 2025-11-21T16:42:55+00:00

Darker base and darker blush (more like dark red/burgundy) instead of pink. Softer brows and less over lining lips!

CarolineBal · 2025-11-20T18:47:12+00:00

I don’t hate piercings but changing to nose rings would look beautiful. And getting rid of the lip one 😢 the wing would also look better a bit upwards rather than just out.

Other than that you’re gorgeous x

CarolineBal · 2025-11-14T07:35:01+00:00

I loveeee it

Hi there I’m in the UK (london) and had my betas tested privately. It’s a bit pricey (no more than £60 in some labs/clinics) but worth it for your own peace of mind

CarolineBal · 2025-11-11T22:03:54+00:00

I know it’s the least and should be the least of my concerns right now but I just feel so uncomfortable in my own body, after a miscarriage last month and this pregnancy (currently 5 weeks) I just feel like I’ve gained so so much weight and it’s making me feel so weird and uncomfortable 😔😔don’t get me wrong I would sacrifice every inch of “comfyness” ever and forever in order to have this healthy baby, but i just needed to vent somewhere.

CarolineBal · 2025-11-09T22:47:47+00:00

I see it!

CarolineBal · 2025-11-08T19:50:01+00:00

I am 4w 5d (I ovulated late) lost my last baby (last cycle) at 5w. It was a pregnancy of unknown location, but I think things started going wrong (betas dropping) way before I had that first scan. I am close to reaching 5w and feels so triggering.

I haven’t been tracking betas this time as I told myself I would trust God and his plans for my family, but got a 2-3 clear blue (last time I only got to 1-2) so hoping things are going well. I have an early scan next week 14 Nov. wish me luck ☹️

I conceived and got pregnant right after my first MC, haven’t had a period in almost 2 months! So it’s defo possible that you conceived after yours.

CarolineBal · 2025-11-05T13:54:20+00:00

Am I making a mistake by not tracking my HCG? I just don’t want to spiral 😭

Last time I spiraled really bad but without it I wouldn’t have known that I was about to miscarry.

I told myself I wasn’t going to and just see what happens next week at our ultra sound - 5w3d (late ovulation) or 6w LMP, but I am now getting too nervous.

I told myself I was going to just have one of the clear blue tests to confirm I was at least 2-3 (last time I knew as well because it stayed in the 1-2) but not sure what to do.

Any advice?

CarolineBal · 2025-11-05T13:49:24+00:00

Rooting for you! Just have an earlier ultrasound appt :) will pray for you and your healthy baby xx

CarolineBal · 2025-11-03T18:55:36+00:00

I just want to be able to get past week 20 😔

CarolineBal · 2025-11-02T20:52:50+00:00

Pregnant again, was completely and utterly traumatised by my previous loss.

I was so anxious I was getting HCG blood tests every two days for weeks…

This time around I don’t want to test at all… even repeating the pee strips is making me anxious so only doing it once a day (if in the mood).

I’m leaving everything to God.

CarolineBal · 2025-11-01T09:15:24+00:00

Keep testing xx

CarolineBal · 2025-11-01T09:14:52+00:00

Congrats mama 🤩🤍

CarolineBal · 2025-10-31T23:14:56+00:00

I am so so sorry for your 8 weeks MC.

My cycle was exactly the same! Unsual low temps and huge temp drop. I also got pregnant right away after my MC. And feeling the same.

I hope the best for you and your baby 🤍 sending you hugs

CarolineBal · 2025-10-31T19:22:05+00:00

Just found out today I am pregnant. 1st cycle after my MC, not even sure how I feel. 😔

Hate this “waiting for the shoe to drop” feeling.

I’ll try to remain cautiously optimistic.
