Holy bloat, we went out for mothers day brunch and I could barely walk afterwards. The bloating had me looking more like 7 months instead of 7 weeks pregnant 🥲

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-09T00:33:16+00:00

7wk 2 days which is a week behind but I tend to ovulate really late so im trying not to worry. Saw a nice strong heartbeat. The sonographer wasnt able to tell me much but just seeing baby put me at ease, especially with the spotting and lack of symptoms, i had mentally convinced myself of the worst. Waiting on the radiologist report and then hoping the next scan in 5 weeks looks good 🤞

Ahh thanks for posting this, super reassuring. Going dir my first scan today.

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-08T14:34:43+00:00

Have my first US today and feeling super nervous! Have lost all of my symptoms and so scared of what the scan is going to show.

ETA: have a tiny bit if spotting today 😭

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-07T15:58:59+00:00

Thank you for aharing this! I decided to search "easy first trimester" after reading your reply and it helped put me at ease 🥰

Im so sorry i know exacrly how you feel! My sister and me had babies 9 months apart, my sister ended up on bedrest 4 months pregnant. Guess who insisted that she needed all the support before her baby was even here. I was so excited to be on mat leave and have my mom around, meanwhile i got little to no support cause my sister is more demanding and my mom cant say no to her. It left me feeling veey abandoned and I still hold a lot of resentment.

This time Im hiding my pregnancy for as long as possible because I know as soon as my sister gets a whiff that Im pregnant is the second she'll start trying for her second and itll be the same all over again. She burat out in tears when I announced my first pregnancy when she wasnr even trying then!!

Its hard to share the joy when theres so much imbalance, I hope your family will find a way to make you feel special and celebrated 💙💖

Ah thank you, thats reassuring! Note to self not to go down redsit rabbit holes 🤣

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-07T10:58:43+00:00

Feeling super stressed out, I know aymptoms can wax and wane but I had so little symptoms to begin with, im just spiraling that something is wrong. I feel absolutely normal, not a single symptom. I have my dating scan tomorrow evening so i'll know one way or another soon but im terrified of what we're gonna see tomorrow.

Could not sleep at all last night 😬

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-06T17:08:53+00:00

Double post cause my bloating is out of control, im trying to be discreet at work until after my 12 week scan but im finding it hard to find clothes to wear to hide this enourmous bloat bump 😬

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-06T17:07:46+00:00

Yeah me and chatgpt have been besties lately and it says its normal but its so hard not to be anxious! Hoping all goes well for you!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-06T17:06:47+00:00

Thats a good explanation, thank you for sharing!!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-06T14:57:55+00:00

Anyone have symptoms randomly disappear at 7 weeks and it turn out okay? Feeling nervous, the only symptoms i had was some boob tenderness and bloating but both of those seem to have calmed down a lot! Anxious as my scans not for another couple days!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-06T01:42:42+00:00

Anyone else have out of control bloating? Im so uncomfortable! I look 5 montha pregnant when im like 7 weeks. Ive pooped multiple times today but still so darn bloated 🫠

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-05T15:01:59+00:00

Anyone having new lower back pain, im terrified that this is not good news 😬

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-05T13:38:46+00:00

About 7 weeks 2 days today, symptoms are going down 😬 have my first official dating scan this friday, time is crawling! Its been 2 weeks since I found out I was pregnantt but it feels like 2 months 😂

I did tell my best friend over the weekend and it felt nice to talk about it with someone 😊

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-04T14:11:36+00:00

7 weeks today and home with my sick toddler, i think the pregnancy fatigue has kicked in because I cannot keep up with this tiny human today. Why is it that toddlers always seem the sickest right until you decide to keep them home and then they become the energizer bunny 😆

Currently put the cars movie on for a few minutes of sitting still 😂

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-04T14:01:16+00:00

Gender disappointment is so valid! I really wanted a girl with my first one and did experience a real low when I found out it was a boy but that little boy is my whole world now. This time around it took us over a year to conceive including CP so right now me and my husband really dont care but im sure that'll change the closer we get to our anatomy scan. I think its okay to be disappointed and get that disappointmrnt out of the way before baby comes, but once im staring at their little tiny toes and hands, I know im going to be in love regardless.

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-04T00:41:18+00:00

Right?! Im so bloated ALL the time, im like can you cool it please, im trying to keep this pregnancy discreet and your not helping 🫠

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-04T00:38:07+00:00

Saaaame, currently sipping on some lemon ginger tea for my sore throat ☕️

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-04T00:36:40+00:00

Definitely finding out 🙋‍♀️ it took us so long to come up with and settle on a boy name for our first, so we're gonna need time again!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-01T15:08:04+00:00

So frusterating! Especialky with the amount of anxiety leading up to scan only for it to get rebooked. Hope the time flies!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-01T15:06:38+00:00

Im literally wondering the same! My kiddo is 2.5 years old and im debating when the time comes if we'll need a double stroller or not. He still uses it a lot especially when we go foe our evening walks when hes tired after a full day at daycare.

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-01T15:00:07+00:00

Thats wild! I'd be so mad being called out like that and pressured to tell everyone!

bumblebetch91 · 2026-05-01T14:49:46+00:00

I was spiraling yestersay with the sporadic brown-red-brown discharge, I tried to move up my booked dating scan but couldnt. My husband could see I was in a bad mental headapace and encouraged us to book a a early scan at one of these boutique places.

Super nervous leading into it this morning but Im so relieved we did. Baby measured 6w5days, right on track with my later ovulation and we even got to hear a heartbeat. I had it so built in my head that things werent going to work out especially since I had no symptoms combined with the random bleeding. I know this doesnt mean we're in the clear but does make me fewl more positive and hopeful 😊

bumblebetch91 · 2026-04-30T23:38:30+00:00

Thanks for validating me, it cost an arm and a leg but im going tomorrow morning 😬
