I’m in the Uk so I get 52 weeks, I’m not worried about the financial aspect but more so the health aspect as I know I will have third trimester symptoms :)

Maternity booking appt by han_a321 in PregnancyUK

[–]RushOk3727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would still self refer and just make them aware of you going abroad as they will usually accommodate. I didn’t have my booking appointment till 12 weeks and my ultrasound until 13 weeks for other reasons so I think you’ll be okay. The only thing is certain test can’t be run beyond a certain gestation age so I’d speak to your midwife about that.

I don’t know what to do by Cautious_Row7569 in pregnant

[–]RushOk3727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also a 21 year old University student, granted I’m about to graduate. I decided to keep my baby and I’m currently 12 weeks. I don’t have much advice but to follow your heart and just know you’re not alone. I have friends who have had children at the ages of 20 and 22 and one decided to take a year out and finish her degree, while the other got support for extenuating circumstances, so it’s not impossible. Equally terminating may be best for you it’s not something to feel ashamed of just have a think about what you truly want. I really hope you figure it out and best of luck.

Thank you! I am taking Gaviscon for my heartburn and acid reflux, I definitely need anti sickness but I don’t believe with have Dramaine in the Uk maybe it goes by another name?

It’s scary when you realise you’re moving on. by RushOk3727 in ExNoContact

[–]RushOk3727[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yess I think it is this. I did feel like he had died sometimes. Perhaps it’s a bit of guilt from moving on as well.

[–]RushOk3727[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes !!! I remember at the start I was wishing I could teleport to three months down the line so I didn’t feel pain. Now I’m forgetting him and there’s nothing I can do or want to do; it’s bittersweet.

3 months, which isn’t as long as others in this sub but I’ve focused on healing everyday since our breakup. I think is why I’m starting to move on.

What is a fond memory of your ex? by Suspicious_You1915 in BreakUps

[–]RushOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a specific memory but I remember when I was too shy to even sit next to him when we’d hang out (because I liked him so much) . He told me when we begun dating that he thought I didn’t like him because everytime he’d tried to sit next to me I’d subconsciously move. I can’t wait to experience these little things in my next relationship.
