So here’s part 2 (which is crazy to me)

There isn’t really an update as such I should hear today or tomorrow regarding a scan. I’ve got the MW again on Thursday and I suppose this week will be the week of grand reveals.

I’m sorry if I disappear for a day at a time I’m still trying to wrap my own head around this.

You sound like you are coping amazingly with a shocking (but very very lovely) situation. Best of luck. X

AppleKatie · 09/06/2020 21:58

Well done for telling him OP, that took guts and I’m so pleased his response has been supportive so far.

Good luck for the scan!

StartupRepair · 09/06/2020 22:13

Good luck OP. Well done on telling him.

Have you put any weight on? This happened to me many moons ago. I had really light periods while on the pill, my then partner woke me up in the middle of the night and said he felt something move as his arm was over my stomach. Went straight to drs who had a good feel around and said I was about 20 weeks. When I told my family they said they thought I'd put a bit of weight on but didn't like to say! My daughter is 25 now but I can still remember the shock as my youngest was 21 months when she was born. Your son will be thrilled I bet 🙂 xx

Ohshitx ignore the idiots, I don't know why they are on here if they don't believe you. Of course we all want to know how you are but like you said this is real life for you not just entertainment on the internet. I'm glad you have told your friend and I wish you lots of luck for the scan x

Anits52 · 09/06/2020 22:43

OP you amaze me. I have so much respect for how you have dealt with your news and the variety of comments on both threads. I have been reading from the origional thread, you have been gracious in dealing with those disbelievers, and have been considerate of all followers. Be proud of yourself you are an amazing role model for your son and will be to this one too.
I wish you all the best and as much as I am watching in anticipation you and your family are the priority. You do what you need but if we can be a support that is the little we can do for you and there are many of us willing.
Good luck for tomorrow and all that is wonderful ahead of you. Star

Boomclaps · 09/06/2020 22:47

@Ohshitx you’ve been so bloody brave telling the father you are utterly fab as well dealing with this all and homeschooling and being a mum and keeping aFloat.
I’m not here for updates I’m here to cheer you on 💕💕 everything crossed for tomorrow 🤞💕

squeekums · 09/06/2020 23:10

@Ohshitx thanks for updating. The majority of us have been respectful thank goodness.

Best of luck with the scan and I hope all goes well going forward with dad and everyone else.

Paddy1234 · 09/06/2020 23:47

OP - thank you for updating.
I am overly invested but in a nice supportive way.
Just big hugs and good luck ❤️

noodledoodler · 10/06/2020 00:22

OP i have been following from the beginning, I never doubted the situation you find yourself in. I would just like to say congratulations on your pregnancy, I hope the remaining weeks go smoothly and I wish you well and hope that the future brings love, good health and happiness whatever you and your babys father decide to do about parenting. You have dealt with surprise of a lifetime and what a blessing I hope it turns out to be for you and your older child. Hugs 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Good luck today* @Ohshitx*! Hope it all goes smoothly 🤞🏻

Sipperskipper · 10/06/2020 07:25

I think you are amazing (from what I’ve read on here anyway!). Wish I could channel some of your pragmatism for my daily life.

Wishing you all the best for your scan, and talking to your family.

lachy · 10/06/2020 07:29

Best of luck for the scan today. Hope it goes smoothly and that FWB is able to be with you Flowers

Good luck today OP. Hope your friend can be there with you today. Will be thinking of you x

Will be thinking of you today OP, hope all goes well.
Please ignore negatives, you have so much support on this thread and you handle this how to jolly well want to! Daffodil

butterpuffed · 10/06/2020 08:04

You're doing amazingly well OP but I'm sure your poor head must be all over the place , so much to take in , so many changes. It'll take a while to adapt to it all but you sound so strong , I'm sure you will.

Good luck with the scan today, glad you have support.

OnTheRollercoasterCalledLife · 10/06/2020 08:29

Good luck for today. I think you've done so well on accepting the news. Hope everything is grand with you and the baby. Flowers

indecisivewoman81 · 10/06/2020 08:35

Good luck for today. I'm really glad you have someone going with you. X

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 10/06/2020 08:37

Sounds like FWB is a reasonable man. That's going to make things easier.

Hope they warm the gel for you today.

MrsCrosbyNRTB · 10/06/2020 08:39

Best of luck for today. I can’t imagine what this must be like. What a rollercoaster for you. For what it’s worth I think it’s a girl Grin
