I have felt sick or nausea at least every day last week. Don't feel such today should I be worried or grateful :) had big tea last night and long lie in maybe that helps?!

TumTumGnu I know exactly what you mean...the minute I tell any of my friends I'm not drinking they will know. Not sure what that says about my normal level of alcohol consumption! Grin

sorry to hear about the sickness. I just have general vague nausea that comes and goes throughout the day.....but early days yet.

ajmac24 · 09/10/2010 13:28

Hi everyone! New on here and like a few other people am trying to learn all the codes. Got a positive test result yesterday with a due date around June 13th. It will be my first but I had an early miscarriage in march this year. So worried it's going to go wrong again but trying to put that out of my mind!
Nice to meet you all!

IamMrsJones · 09/10/2010 14:20

Hi Guys,

Can I pleae join you. I got a BFP a couple of weeks ago, so i'm technically due on 28th May, but I think it'll probably be a June baby. Also I have been lurking on here and you are all lovely.

This will be DC4 (all things going well, of course). I have DS14, DD1 12, DD2 4.

I have horrible nausea which is lasting until about 6pm, not good. I am massively bloated and my jeans don't fit already. I was hoping I would show too much too early as I am chief bridesmaid for my friend in Jan. Oh well!

I have started to tell people, not too bothered about waiting til after 12 weeks, and I seem to have a problem with oversharing. I never know when to stop, (can you tell from the size of my first post?)Grin

I am dreading telling my DSis though, she is currently on Clomid and about to start her last cycle on it. They have been trying for about 6 or so years. I know she will be happy for us, but gutted at the same time. I feel sick just thinking about it and keep crying. I have being praying to everyone that'll listen to help her fall pg.

I should probably shut up now.

IamMrsJones · 09/10/2010 14:21

I wouldn't show that should be

featherblue · 09/10/2010 15:32

Welcome to all the newcomers!

I'm feeling much more positive about not having a chemical now ? still only 13DPO but getting much darker lines today. So yay! Not really having symptoms except slight bloating and funny cramps/aches. I'm feeling for everyone with morning sickness. And worrying about when/if it's going to hit!

I'm going to a wedding reception tonight, so we'll see how the not drinking goes down. I'm well known for liking a few glasses of wine, so I'm afraid it's going to be very obvious. Also, I'm a shit liar! Aghh let the fun begin.

KaraStarbuckThrace · 09/10/2010 18:29

FB - just tell people you are on antibiotics! Hope you have fun to might.

wonnaywombat · 10/10/2010 07:46

Yep - the antibiotics line works well, although can't be used all the time of course! Any other inspirational ideas that anyone has got?

tumtumgnu - marmite is a good source of folic acid so is a good thing to be wanting to eat! I had 2 breakfasts as well this morning - better to eat more fuel in the morning though.

welcome to the newcomers too!

mrshedgie · 10/10/2010 08:38

Add me to the list of people having two breakfasts...and maybe two little lunches...

petitech · 10/10/2010 08:52

Morning! Sickness back with avengance this morning :( I'm never usually up this early on a Sunday just feel too queasy to stay in bed. The weird thing is that so far I am never actually sick I just feel terrible and wretch lots and feel like I'm going to be sick.
Am now quite anxious about Monday morning adn handling this at work?! Any suggestion anyone? I work in a really small office with one bathroom, so not easy to be discreet?!
I have loads of social things on this month, which is sod's law and so far need 3 'not drinking' excuses :(

Igglybuff · 10/10/2010 09:19

petit when I was at work with bad morning sickness, I had to make sure I had loads of snacks and fizzy water or orange juice (plain water tasted weird to me). Also apples used to settle my stomach bizarrely. Try and get regular breaks of fresh air too.

LobstersLass · 10/10/2010 09:37

Morning all. Feeling fine today. Sore breasts but still no other symptoms.

I know it's a bit odd, but I'd quite like a bit of nausea. It would make me feel that everything was progressing properly!

I'm away with work for one night this week so will need to come up with some nonsense as to why I'm not having a glass of wine with colleagues. I think I'll say I'm tired and have an early night. Antibiotics would be far too obvious! The fact that I've given up smoking will already have them wondering what on earth is going on.

wonnaywombat · 10/10/2010 10:10

Hi all - just found this useful mn thread on excuses for not drinking - some great ones in there, particularly like the suggestion of DH being off alcohol but you're not, ordering a vodka and coke and a coke and then switching when no-one's looking! Not sure that will work for you lobsterslass but there are some other good suggestions there.

StarflowerGirl · 10/10/2010 10:32

Hi everyone,

Welcome and congratulations to all the newcomers!

I must be the only person in the group who doesn't have to worry about making excuses for not drinking. All of my friends etc already know that I don't drink (for medication reasons) so I won't get any funny looks if I'm only drinking mineral water. Smile

Hubby and I told our families about the baby a few days ago. Actually my Dad had already guessed! Our parents are over the moon but cautious I think because of the previous miscarriage. We'll all relax a little if it's good news when I have my 11 week scan.

featherblue · 10/10/2010 10:43

Well, I think the not drinking last night wasn't too too obvious. I just said I was really hungover and made a point of taking a sip of white wine and blanching at it like I couldn't take any more. I got a couple of 'another diet coke?!'s, but seemed to be ok. I will now feel very guilty about lying when I tell them!

LobstersLass I know what you mean about wanting just a little nausea to know it's 'working' as it were. I think we'll feel differently when it arrives, though!

Also, why don't you say you're on a health kick/counting calories when you're off with work?

cerealqueen · 10/10/2010 10:43

Hi All
looks like I'll be bowing out - bleeding since last night, with some lower abdomen cramping. Nothing can be done today, just told to rest. Got to phone hospital tomorrow and get a date for a scan. Sad Sad. xxx

wonnaywombat · 10/10/2010 11:01

thinking of you lots cerealqueen x

misshoohaa · 10/10/2010 11:32

Sorry to hear cereal queen. Fingers crossed things work out for you. X

KaraStarbuckThrace · 10/10/2010 11:37

Oh cerealqueen I am sorry :(

5 weeks for me today. Feeling anxious. No nausea, apart from 2 days before I found out, but major butterflies now. Last m/c was at 5 weeks.
I don't think I'll relax until the 12 week scan.

featherblue · 10/10/2010 12:10

Cerealqueen, I'm so so sorry. Take care of yourself. xx

misshoohaa · 10/10/2010 12:15

Hi kara my anxiety is pretty overwhelming and I'm at about the same stage as you, so you're not alone!

I've actually booked a private scan on the 23/10 as that date is much more achievable than end of Nov.
It's only 55 pounds so money well spent I think...

Happy thoughts and best of luck to you! What's helped me is thinking of the stats the other way.... So 4 in 5 are viable pregnancies plus I'm not a smoker, drinker and am under 30, thinking of that rather the negative stats has helped me.

Enjoy your Sunday, my MIL is cooking up a storm as we speak! Can't wait- mmmm roast!

LobstersLass · 10/10/2010 14:38

Cerealqueen, I'm so sorry to hear this. It's so awful. Take care of yourself and take your time to get over it. xx

ajmac24 · 10/10/2010 14:52

KaraStarbuckThrace - feeling exactly the same as you. will be 5 weeks tomorrow and last mc was at 6 weeks.

Woke up at 3am in a sweat convinced I was having a mc again. No symptoms apart from sore breasts but just feel so stressed things are going to go wrong.

Will be glad to go to work tomorrow to get my mind off things!
