Hi Everyone,
Another Kelly here but I'm in Auckland. First baby for me - 6wks 4days. Any one else in the group have Endo? Everyday is a concern, that I might miscarry as before getting pregnant I was forever being told this would most likely happen. I'm off food and it's really getting to me. Each new person I encounter has recited what not to eat but no great suggestions on what's good to eat (I'm allergic to dairy & lots of other food, due to Endo, upset my stomach) I was in hospital last week for what might have been a gastro bug though no-one's really certain. It's really hard to enjoy this, normally I'm a bubbly happy person. Now I'm trying to find a midwife and it's rather overwhelming. But I'm trying to keep hold of the positives like when I was in hospital the scan revealed a sac but no baby however at the follow up scan this week there bub was! With a strong heartbeat and everything looking great. Well that's my journey so far and so glad I found this group as you all sound like such lovely supportive women congratulations to you all and I look forward to reading more of your wonderful posts in the coming weeks 😊
Kelly (No 2)

Hi Kelly and welcome! I understand your concerns and feel for you. There's not much I can do but let you know that we're here for you. I miscarried my first child (I have pcos) so every subsequent pregnancy I was fearful in the first 12 weeks of miscarrying again. With every week the fear eases and drops to the back of your mind :) I hope the same happens for you :) Rest assured your baby is doing what it should now and do take time to rest and relax. The OHbaby! website has some great paleo recipes and gluten/dairy free ones in there if that helps :) Don't forget to start taking a supplement for folic acid and iron :) Take care :) Ang

Hi Kelly,
Congratulations. I know it can be hard and very overwhelming. Somestimes its easier said than done looking at the positives. When trying for my 1st I was told I had PCOS and the chance of falling pregnant was slim. Took 7yrs but finally have a little one.Not sure what food would work- but I have always been told keep it healthy and fresh. Kind of hard when all I want right now is an ice cream- yum yum.
The community on OHBaby are awesome and everyone is here to help or just lend an ear.
Just saw we would be due around the same time.

Hi Kelly, I'm 10 weeks with my first and have had two surgeries for endometreosis. I am also pretty anxious about having a miscarriage because of this. I have seen the heartbeat twice which is reassuring but I can't seem to shake the anxiety! I feel like I want an ultrasound every week to check on it!

I'm Mel, 10 weeks due on the 7th of July with my first. I'm in Auckland and would love to meet mama's due around the same time! I will only be in Auckland until March/April and then moving to Wellington so would be great to connect with people there as well.
My morning sickness is now starting to ease off but I was in hospital twice with hyperemesis, now taking ondansetron which works really well! :-)

Hi Everyone, Sorry for not replying earlier to the lovely comments people sent me. After checking out various beds on a number of occasions at the local hospital sadly I will not be joining you all on the journey into motherhood. Best of luck everyone and I will be thinking of you all in July.

Hi Kellywood, thanks...do you know what the Facebook group is called? I can't seem to find it. The only one I found seemed to be people in the states...is it a private group? If so, could someone invite me or something?
