I've told my mum and dad, a close friend, my line manager at work and one other friend at work.
That's it. DP is telling his mum on sunday and I'm going to visit a really good friend over the weekend who I have been wanting to tell but want to wait to see her in person rather then do it over the phone.

We're planning on waiting for the 1st scan before we tell anyone else but we'll see how long that resolve lasts

BarbieLovesKen · 14/10/2010 20:17

Brassicababe, I am so so sorry to hear this. Please be kind to yourself xx.

Ive been vomiting all day again to day. The nausea is completely debilitating. Im sitting here in floods of tears Blush which Im aware is embarrasing to admit and ridiculous of me. Have never experienced this before with any of mine. I just cant cope with it and dont know how much more I can take, Its been a solid 4 weeks of this now. Im having visions of the next 7 months being the same and am actually panicing.

I feel so so so sorry for dcs as Im simply doing the bare minimum with them, house is in a total mess, Im missing loads and loads of college (night degree), thank God Im still not back at work because I simply wouldnt be able for it. Im usually fine, Im used to being so busy. I feel awful, that said, in light of recent, awful losses of some of the ladies on here I really need to shut my big complaining mouth and be thankful for each day right now. Im so sorry if I've came across as insensitive or ungrateful. I really didnt mean to. x

I've got a few 'events' coming up so might up telling a couple more friends but we're waiting till 12 week scan too.

It feels strange spending long periods of time with people but keeping a major secret from them!

cep · 14/10/2010 20:23

hello everyone, Thanks for the invite wonnaywombat. Based on when my last af was i think i'm due about the 18th june. Not been to dr's yet appointment on Monday. I took about 5 pregnancy tests to confirm. Will be #2 as i have a ds 2 1/2. Even though #2 am still really nervous, watch very closely when i wipe myself after the toilet, especially today as i'm getting slight pains in my stomach like mild p pains. i also had an odd bleed around my p time which i'm assuming is implantation bleed as my tests were a few days after this. Although the comment on the earlier page about still testing positive for a while after a mc has me a bit worried.

So far i've told my boss (just incase of sickness) and a close friend at work. not telling anyone else till after scan may even wait till xmas morning. although it is really hard as i'm so excited.

Clarkiee · 14/10/2010 20:25

Xmas morning- I like it cep

cep · 14/10/2010 20:34

the plan is if everything goes ok. i'll put a copy of the scan in an envelope and have ds give it to them as a pressie (it was agreed we'd not give the grandparents a gift from him this year cause of funds.) and say oh we couldn't help ourselves had to get you something and then he gives it to them.

sasamaxx · 14/10/2010 20:41

barbielovesken - sounds like you're really suffering just now. Try to be kind to yourself - it's better that you rest and look after yourself than worry about the housework.

All this week I've been so tired, shaky, dizzy and sick feeling that I have been an absolutely crap mum - seriously. The kids are bored out of their minds as I just don't have the energy to do stuff with them and I'm force-feeding them TV as much as poss Sad

Hang in there - it will get better - hey - maybe it's twins Shock

BarbieLovesKen · 14/10/2010 20:54

Oh thank you sasamaxx, You sound like your really suffering yourself!! you poor thing. Hey, at least we can be miserable and crap mums together Grin. I really hope your ok.

(I am going to pee myself laughing if that back fires on you and you have twins young lady!!)

Clarkiee · 14/10/2010 21:11

I have a friend who started trying shortly after I did (but recent behaviour suggests she not pregnant). Not really looking forward to telling her.

GoodVibrations · 14/10/2010 21:14

Gosh there is so much news since I last posted.

First off, starflowergirl and brassicababe I am so very sorry for your losses. I recognised your names from the June bus and I am really sad for you tonight :( I wish you so much luck in the future x

petitech so happy for you, the risk rate falls significantly when you see a heartbeat. You must be so relieved. Wish me luck for my scan tomorrow, I'm feeling nervous.

Sasamaxx mmmmm chips!. I've actually found that the only way to not feel sick on my drive to work is to eat the whole way there (raisins though, so an improvement on the biscuits :))

featherblue thanks for sorting out the stats. I've not given up running (but only 5k once a week at the mo as too tired). Last pg I ran until 4 months when gravity got the better of me!

Barbie You sound like you are having a terrible time. Don't feel guilty for finding it difficult, it sounds horrendous. I feel sick all day long but am not actually being sick anymore and I feel very sorry for myself, so you have good reason to be upset!. I'm also neglecting DD. When I get home from work I can just about manage a bedtime story and that's it.

Hope everyone is ok tonight, I'm feeling a bit :( tonight after all the sad news

Girlsworld · 14/10/2010 21:15

Sorry - feel like I've wandered into a closed group. Perhaps I've joined too late. Will wander back out {shuts door gently behind her} best wishes for happy healthy pg's everyone

moomin156 · 14/10/2010 21:22

Ive disappeared from the list again......hope thats not a bad omen :(

GoodVibrations · 14/10/2010 21:22

girlsworld COME BACK!!!! Please don't leave. Sorry I've not been very welcoming, the thread has been so busy I keep losing track of everyone. So welcome and congrats! It is lovely to have a big group and we are a nice bunch honest Grin

moomin156 · 14/10/2010 21:24

Why do some people get symptoms and others dont......our hormones and bodies must be doing similar things. It just doesnt make sense

BarbieLovesKen · 14/10/2010 21:27

Oh Im so so sorry girlsworld. Honestly, I promise that when typing my earlier post I was thinking "must welcome girlsworld", even went back in thread to confirm your poster name. Im just feeling so sorry for myself and am being selfish and self indulgent that it completely went out of my head. Ditto what goodvibrations said, there are so many newcomers every day here Im loosing track of everyone!!

So sorry - how are you????

moomin156 its hardly the difference between whos carrying girls and whos carrying boys?? or is that a little too old wives taleish?

I know I was a lot sicker with dd than with ds. Am now conviced this is a girl because of that.

You can gaurantee its a boy then. Grin

Hi all, can I come and join you as well? Got a very clear BFP today. Think I'm due on 18th June according to my dates, and just starting to feel quite nauseous although not nearly as bad as some of you by the sound of it.

broughthimroundtotheidea · 14/10/2010 21:38

I can't believe I am actually 'willing' my morning sickness to start! Come back girlsworld!

GoodVibrations · 14/10/2010 21:44

Pozzled welcome and congrats!

Barbie I am convinced that this one is a boy simply because I want savoury food this time instead of sweet. Complete nonsense but I like a good old wives tale!

moomin maybe it is something to do with hormone levels? My hormone levels were really high last time and I was very sick until 16 weeks.

BarbieLovesKen · 14/10/2010 21:50

pozzled huge welcome and congratulations!!.

Broughthimroundtotheidea DONT!!!Smile

Moomin, hormone levels is definately much more sensible theory!!! yep, would agree with that one.

Oooh will be interesting to see if our predictions are right goodvibratons anyone else have any "feelings"?
