Hey! I’m 10+3 and the morning sickness is really getting me down at the moment. I’m suffering badly all day, everyday. It’s starting to affect work!

Hi all, I am supposedly 7 weeks 5 days pregnant (which could make me a June 2025 pregnancy tbh but still joined this page haha). Confirmed it through an at-home test and missed my period.

Is this my girl trying to roll over? She does this sometimes when she lays on her back and makes exactly the same noises every the time as well. We do plenty of time time and assisted rolling and exercises to help with rolling but I’m just not sure. She’s 4 months in just over a week for reference 😕
