poppet85 · 03/07/2014 17:46

Mine are as well . After I told my boss I was pregnant (only because she asked!) She went on to tell the chief exc and a member of the trustees because its a 'health and safety 'issue ! Not only did she massively jump the gun but she didnt ask or tell me that she was going to do that .Least to say I am keeping my head down until mat leave and then I wont be returning !!

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 17:40

They are rotten people poppet!! Grin

poppet85 · 03/07/2014 17:34

ducky thats so rotten !!dropping something like that when your pregnant is not nice of them !

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 17:30

Good golly I am emotional today.

Work have told me they're moving me to another office permanently which will take me an extra hour to get to: problem is I'm having EXTREME nausea when traveling.

I just rang my gp and had a breakdown on the phone. They're writing me a sick note to say I should keep travel to a minimum. I must hae sounded like a crazy woman on the phone.

Now I got to go and hae a meeting with work about it and I'm dreading it Hmm they're going to be angry

lillamyy1 · 03/07/2014 16:58

Congrats Bugaboom Smile

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 16:43

That's ace boom!!!! GrinGrinGrin

poppet85 · 03/07/2014 15:02

Kitkat I am normally quite a chilled out person but since, finding out I am anxious about symptons, anxious about no symptons ,scans,the fact I drank a cup of actual tea today !!its so silly !! I cant even think past 12 weeks I am so worried about it ! Guess its the start of a lifetime of worrying !!
Congrats bug !!!!bet you cant wait to tell everyone !

Bugaboom · 03/07/2014 14:42

Scan went fine, due date brought forward to my original date of 2nd Jan (instead of 8th as predicted on early scan). And I peed before the scan, quickly drank a couple of glasses of water and sonographer didn't mention anything. So ladies, definitely no need to have bladder full enough to burst!
This baby seems quite chilled out lying on its side hands behind head. Not like my first who was a live wire and a bit of a poser on scans!

Relieved that I can tell people now.

Cupcake92 · 03/07/2014 13:32

Kitkat as soon as baby is here ull forget all ur worries. Ull be a brilliant mom!!

And Bears , the landlord did the work himself. He never hired anyone to do it.

Aw Ducky I can understand u not enjoying ur pregnancy :( I would be the same In Ur situation.

Kitkat my pg has been terrifying. I'm terrified of scans, I'm terrified of no scans. I assume every few mins that it's over. Cannot enjoy it at all

lillamyy1 · 03/07/2014 13:23

Kitkat it's terrifying and of course you're going to have worries but you're going to love your baby so much you'll be a great mum! Hormones can make you really miserable.

Tori, I'm sure it's totally normal, it's still early. I know someone whose baby didn't show on the first scan they could only see the sac but they found the heartbeat the next week.

I've been having such a nightmare with my hormones that I had to call in 'sick' to work today. Thought a nice day at home with DP would cheer me up but he's just woke up in a right mood and decided that he 'doesn't like me at the moment' and wants to stay away from me so has gone off to work for a meeting and says he's going to stay there and get some other jobs done in order to avoid me. Sad I know I've been a mardy cow the last couple of days but I apologised last night and was being nice to him when he woke up this morning. He should appreciate that I'm not myself at the moment what with hormones and having just stopped my ads. He's not understanding at all.

kitkatkaty87 · 03/07/2014 13:06

Sorry to hear it has worried you tori. But it is so early still. She didn't mean 5 weeks gestational did she? Because then that would be right if it's seven and a bit weeks since lmp. I'm sure it will work out fine, did she manage to find a heartbeat or is it too early for that?
If the scanner said that it looks ok then try not to worry too much as they must know what to look for and things.
I will be 7 + 5 for my scan on Saturday as far as I know. Feeling nervous. Has anybody else had any anxious feelings at all? Like I keep worrying what if I'm awful or don't like being a mum or get postnatal depression and things. I just can't feel happy about the pregnancy this week :( i don't know why. I feel awful for not being mega happy. But this week I just feel a bit overwhelmed by everything. It's probably just me being weird as usual. The feeling ill all the time doesn't help either I guess.

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 13:06

Cupcake hope your deposit comes back to you! Make sure you put loads of detail on the dispute form Smile

I had to do one once, I got £550 of a £600 deposit back Smile

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 13:04

And good luck boom!!! Keep us updated Smile

Ducky23 · 03/07/2014 12:59

Boom for my 20 week with dd they were running late I was bursting! They told me to go and 'let a little bit out' but I just weed and weed and weed!

For my 12 week I didn't need a wee at all and tey saw fine Smile

They usually advise to drink a litre of water but you can space it out Grin

Bearsinmotion · 03/07/2014 12:57

Good for you to fight it cupcake. We had similar issues when we last moved house. DP argued the toss - his strategy is make yourself as annoying as possible so it's easier to give in that take the money from him. So, request quotes for all the work, ensure you have quotes from three different suppliers in case one is a "friend" and yes, threaten small claims!

Good luck!

Cupcake92 · 03/07/2014 12:41

Yeah I thought it was 14 days before AF!! Rele hope u get ur blood test lilla!

Well landlord has just called this morning. And he wants £400 of our £600 deposit. The things he's charging us for is .... Cleaning of drawers and cupboards. Painting ceilings and walls in one bedroom (he said when we painted the bedroom back to magnolia it wasn't a good job.) and he said we had damaged the carpet in the master bedroom.( which we hadn't, the d tenant damaged it when he moved which the landlord pointed out to us before we moved in!!) and that's it.
In my knowledge that doesn't cost £400.
So I've started a dispute on the tenancy deposit site.
I said to the landlord, £100 will do for him. But he said that's not enough. So now we shall have to see where this dispute leads us! Eugh, I thought the stress had ended!! :(

Bearsinmotion · 03/07/2014 11:42

Confused I'm sure you're right lillymyy1 - I thought it was about a week before AF was due before I had DD, found out I was wrong when a BFP arrived!

lillamyy1 · 03/07/2014 11:34

Good luck for the scan bugaboom! And congratulations to tori on yours Thanks has anyone else had a scan this week? Sorry I'm finding f it hard to keep up!!!

Cupcake your landlord sounds like a tit! I've had similar things with a few landlords in the past, they do tend to be money grabbing! I'm sure what he's doing is totally illegal and you must definitely take him to small claims. Hopefully he'll just pay up if you threaten him to avoid the hassle! Really hope you get it sorted without too much stress. I really feel for you Thanks

So I went to the doc last night and she did a urine test which was bfn as well. I managed to convince her to try an get me a blood test but I'm waiting to hear back because she had to check that they're able to do it in this kind of case. She was really hesitant because she reckons if I am pg that it might only be less than 2 weeks along and too early to show in blood either.
Other weird thing I she said women ov 7 days before their AF???!!? I know she's the doc but everything I've read and anyone who is ttc has said it's between around 14 and 11 days before AF due.... Thus the tww, right??? Confused

Bugaboom · 03/07/2014 10:30

In that case I'm having a wee!

Cupcake92 · 03/07/2014 10:28

Ooo good luck bugaboom!
As far as I know it doesn't have to be very full!

OP posts:
Bugaboom · 03/07/2014 10:15

I've got my dating scan today. Ducky- how full is it necessary to have bladder? I remember you posting something about it. I'm feeling nervous and already need a pee having only had a glass and half of water! Scan in 35 mins

Cupcake92 · 02/07/2014 22:46
