April 2011....anyone there? <echoes>

[shitforbrains]

Hi Ladies!

Just got a BFP. According to calculator am due April 2nd 2011...

Thank you for your messages ladies, they were very much appreciated.

Feeling physically worse but mentally much much better today. Apparently you're hyper-fertile after a miscarriage so I'm waiting to feel better and then attack my chances of being on the May thread!

Good luck and baby dust to you all! And congratulations on your big fat BFPs!

takethatlady I'm so sorry :( Be kind to yourself and I hope we'll see you on that May thread!

Hope everyone is doing ok, I am knackered and sick. The spotting I had has stopped finally but not before it went on for 7 consecutive days so I am booked in for a scan at the EPU tomorrow first thing. Very very nervous.

Hey everyone,

This morning I had the 'I don't feel sick' panic, but it's ok, it seems to return in full force now. I haven't stopped nipping to the loo and knicker checking all day.

I was probably distracted from the nausea because we found a new house and fingers crossed all the credit checks go quickly because this time next month we'll be moving

I hope your scan goes well tomorrow Alibaba and more baby dust all round

Beetle

Sorry to hear your new takethat lady :(

NitNat, crazy i know! Lucy is 11mths today and it has just flown by!

Good lord i feel awful :( since saturday the mild nausea has turned nasty.. Not actually being sick but have the feeling all day and cant shift it no matter what i do.

I have booked my first mw appt for Wednesday when i will be 8+2.

Kitstwins, how lovely to be having the girls 'triplet' very special.

Still getting my head round the fact that i will have 4 under the age of 6 and have this feeling that this pregnancy will fly by as we have so much on and 3 other children to look after.

Alibaba Hope the scan has gone well!

I have decided the only things I can stand at the moment are Marmite on toast and water....exciting huh?!

Terrible nausea most of the time, headaches, diziness and extreme tiredness. Roll on 2nd trimester!!!

Scan has gone well Saw a heartbeat and we have a picture!

Feel like I can start getting excited now!

Kind of joining,i think! I have no idea of my dates - anywhere between 5 and 7 wks. I had an early mc in jan and this time it's completely unplanned - hence no idea of dates. Am feeling dribbly,slightly nauseus and needing to wee early o clock in the mornings. This will be dc no 5!

Welcome to numptysmummy & congrats! and huge amounts of respect to you for having 4 DC + 1 on the way, I find it tough with one and this bean!

Alibaba so pleased scan went well! Brilliant news!

Stuffedmk I love marmite on toast! Keep telling myself it is good for folic acid intake.

Nothing to report here pg-wise. Tons of work to do so very busy, then need to think about christening at the other end of the country on Sunday.

Have a good day all!

that's great Alibaba, how exciting, you must feel really chuffed.
I love scan photos.
And I love marmite. And licorice. And wotsits. And star bars. And.............

afternoon all, am pleased to announce that I woke up with very sore boobs today. Have also had the very smallest slightest feeling of gippyness a few times today and had to have a tea in starbucks this afternoon, a tea!!! couldn't even face a decaff . Stangely pleased with myself.

congrats on the scan Alibaba - it really helps doesn't it?

welcome numpty and hats off to you

Glad to hear the scan went well Alibaba

Welcome numpty :) 5?

I am loving marmite too this pregnancy, on Warburtons thick white toastie bread. I've gone right off wholemeal which usually I love, really weird!

MissWooWoo - those sound like good symptoms It's crazy really to be pleased to be feeling slightly unwell and peculiar isn't it?

Great news about your scan Alibabaa

I'm a Marmite fan at the best of times (lick it off the knife straight out of the jar - yum!) so I'm using being pregnant as a good reason to indulge

The last couple of days I've noticed I'm salivating at the smell and even the thought of meat I've not eaten beef or lamb for 10 years, pork or poultry for about 5 and I've been a bit shocked to be enjoying the idea of eating it again! I'm not against the idea of eating meat again while pregnant (I stopped because I don't like the taste and texture rather than ethics) I'm just not sure I could cook it!

Alibabaa a heartbeat is great. Kind of makes it real, isn't it? I still have over a month to see mine.

My pregnancy is a bit of an anti-climax so far as I've got no symptoms, not even tired, and I'm not allowed to tell the world about it. Even DP seems tp have lost interest, and I cannot blame him as nothing is happening. So it's business as usual at the moment, I couldn't feel less pregnant (except of course that I know I am - I've taken six tests ).

Oooh me too MissWooWoo well didn't exactly have sore boobs but they definitely felst different, kind of bigger and wobbly?!? Freaked me out a little bit if I'm honest, have always had a small chest and it feel funny to be getting bigger!! They are starting to ache a bit tonight tho so I won't be surprised if they have grown again overnight!!

Other than that still no other symptoms but will only be 7 weks on Monday so still time for nausea/sickness I guess!

Great news about your scan Alibaba :)

And muchos respect to numptysmummy with your 5th dc en route!! I'm freaking about having numero uno - and I've already had plenty practice with DSS!

Hi. Can i join please? I am week 5. Due 23rd April. We found out on Tuesday. Going to tell parents today and siblings tomorrow. This is our first. I'm 35, and i live in Essex. Have nausea and omg sore boobs! Can't sleep on them anymore. Also not looking forward to blood tests as i have thin veins too. And can't wait to be 12 weeks so i can shout it from the roof tops.
Congrats to everyone expecting.
Hugs to those who have left us.

welcome and congratulations kittycatcat

ugh! I am in such a bad mood, we have guests and I can't drink and we're not telling them why either so it's all "oh it's a bit early for me" or "I've been overdoing it lately so taking it easy". Bowed out of the full English this morning with a "I'm still too full from last night" RIDICULOUS! Part of me really wants to tell them even though I'm only 5+4 but the other part of me can't bear the congratulations incase it all ends in tears. Everyone out to the park while I "have a break". They must know, usually I drink like a fish Hey ho, only a lunch and afternoon of rugby and another evening to get through with the "oh! you not drinking??!!?" comments. Aarrggh

On a more positive note (yes Alibaba most odd to celebrate feeling off colour!) more sore boobs this morning and yesterday couldn't even face a coffee - not even a decaff (although have had one today ...decaff that is)

Is anyone else on here Rhesus negative and pregnant with dc2 or more? I have dd 3.3 and this is my third pregnancy (miscarried 2nd pregnancy) feeling a bit nervous about the rhesus neg thing, anyone else in same boat?

Hi Ladies, can i join?

I was a bit scared to join until now but i had an early scan on thurs at 7 weeks and we saw the heartbeat, very exciting! We had been ttc for 2 years so feel very lucky to be here, just hoping it keeps going well.

My EDD is 7th April

Hi MissWooWoo, yeah I'm rhesus negative too, I'm pregnant with my 4th (my others are 2,4 and 6).
I can't really remember it being much of an issue - I think I got an injection after about 30 weeks then another one once the baby was born. I've got a terrible memory so someone might come along and completely contradict that, but I'm pretty sure that was all there was to it.
Hi kittycatcat, you must be so excited about telling your family, how lovely!

Hi, can I join too please? Got my BFP on thurs (after a surprise TWP on Wed!) and am 5+1 today. My EDD will be the 22nd of April I'm so, so excited!

We haven't told a soul yet so it's just a lovely secret at the moment.

Hello everyone,

Big congrats to theteasonme & ladybird10 those of you who have just joined. This thread is growing so fast, I can't keep up!

Jenduck - thank you for the HIP grant info - I thought the govt had alredy scrapped it so wouldn't have looked into it if you hadn't told us.

I feel sick, tired, spotty & I can't get my jeans done up - but I'm v happy

Hi congrats to all! I would love to join you. I will be 6 weeks tomorrow. No symptoms as yet and first midwife app on Thursday. Due April 18th . I already have have dd 3 1/2 years who is not keen at all on the idea of a second baby! but me and DP are v happy. I am hoping that over the next 8 months there will be time to prepare her for new brother/sister etc

Congrats alibaba on successful scan...how wonderful!

Hello everyone. I know this thread is getting pretty full but I have been lurking for a while! I am due around 4th April with DC2 so now 7+ weeks. DD is nearly 3. i will attempt to add myself to the list.
Major nausea and sickness here. Can't face normal tea or coffee but got some Jasmine tea which seems to be fairly non-nauseating. Also only wanting to eat white carbs mainly white bread toast. What's all that about?

It was my 34th b-day yesterday and we were meant to be going out for a meal but I just couldn't face it (having thrown up about 5 times during the day) so celebrated by having a salt and vinegar square crisp sandwich on white bread and watching the x-factor.

My first Gp appt isn't for another few weeks then afterwards I think we have to contact the midwife, so looking like I'll be about 13-14 weeks when I get my first scan.
