Hi all - we've very nearly exhausted the 1,000 post limit on our previous thread so here is the new one.

Looking forward to continuing to share the ups, downs, symptoms, queries, worries and joy (fingers tightly crossed!)

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Afternoon ladies.

9 weeks today for me & my OH has absolutely had enough of me being negative :(
I really can't help it even having had 2 NHS scans & 1 private scan;not normally such a negative person.(beginning to hate myself)

Not had any MS since Sat although it was usually lunchtime before i felt queasy & wasn't every day, boobs dont really hurt anymore & i don't seem to feel as tired.

Am hoping its more to do with being on holiday this week as its half term & as my only child is 14 I don't exactly have to run around after him :)

12 week scan booked for 22nd Nov when i should be 12+5 - don't know how i'm gonna manage another 27 days....

Have 2 close friends due in the next 3 weeks so i hope nothing happens before that.

Not told many people at all. Just my manager at work, HR and a close freind at work but only told them because i ended up in hospital at 5+1 with bleeding & cramps.

Trying not to plan ahead or even think of baby things but its incredibly hard. I won't let my OH make any plans but i do have some thoughts on names :o

With my DS i bought all blue from 8 weeks pregnant because i just 'knew' he was a boy;not sure how i knew but i did. This time i 'feel' like its a girl but yet when i'm thinking of names i only think of boys names. I have a shortlist of 5 but haven't discussed it with the OH yet. I like lots of girls names but they just don't 'appear' in my thoughts.

God, how strange do i sound!?

Welcome to all the newbies & for those of you feeling 'horrid' i hope you feel better soon.

neenewps · 27/10/2010 16:32

We too have a girls name sorted.. I really love it and it isn't even on the list!!

As for boys names.. we are struggling. So much so we have started to go down the silly route! :o

I have had various aches and pains that seem to come and go. Have had moments where I'm thinking should I do another test!! It's all in my head I know! Mentioned it to my Mum today and it seems she had the same concerns 30 odd years ago!! Seems things don't change much... :)

Welcome to all the newbies :)

NurseSunshine · 27/10/2010 16:33

Thinking of you Cameli.

8rubberduckies · 27/10/2010 16:37

Me and DP have bene talking names since we decided to start ttc again! We have no problem at all coming up with loads of lovely boy's names, but girl's names we just can't agree on. He can't stand my choices and I think his favourite is just tooooo over-used at the moment, although it's beautiful. We have two other girls names we both "like", but I'm just not feeling either of them, if you know what I mean. Oh well, time to stop panicking, we've got 7 1/2 months I suppose Blush.

8rubberduckies · 27/10/2010 16:41

Oops, posted too soon, meant to also add that I'm thinking of you both Cep and Cameli, I'm sure all will be fine for both of you. Cep I had two episodes of bleeding with ds1 and he was absolutely fine.

Beesok · 27/10/2010 16:51

We are soon going to hit the 150 on this list! Welcome to the newbies and man there will be a lot of June 2011 babies!!! After our 12 wks scans etc we should start taking stats of how many boys, how many girls and how many "surprises" ;)

Still no ms although I am feeling a little nausea throught the day - it's more of a "I don't what to eat or drink but force myself to" - and I cannot for the life of me decide what I want at a restaurant or cafe - I changed my order 3 times today and was about to tell the really patient lady at the counter to forgive the hormonal crazy pregnant women who will NOT have salad Blush

Boob are def growing but mine were a C before so I am v. happy about this :) can wait to go bra shopping! [hgrin]
Am gonna insist on buying so sexy ones and make the most of the bigger boob-still flat tummy combo [hwink]

Beesok · 27/10/2010 16:51

*throughout

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 27/10/2010 16:54

With DS we started talking about names the day we found out I was pg. We came up with a short list of about 5 boys and 5 girls then didnt name him until he was 3 days old. We chose a name that had been no where our list Grin.
We still have the girls name we were going to use (again not from our lists!) but I guess this time we're just going to wait and see with names.

I managed to eat lunch today too Grin

Oh so what's everyone calling their bump? DH didn't like sticky bean, so we've settled for Jelly Bean instead.

MoogHasNoBrain · 27/10/2010 17:00

Great question NoMoreChocBiscuits

My bump is called Richard Confused .... in fact Richard was Richard before I even had a bump :o

NurseSunshine · 27/10/2010 17:04

I have no bump [hsad]

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 27/10/2010 17:14

Nurse Nor so I, but I will and I just can't refer to the baby as It.

NurseSunshine · 27/10/2010 17:16

I tend to call it the Thing! Or just The Baby.

moomin156 · 27/10/2010 17:21

Afternoon everyone.......welcome to the newcomers

Well had my first retching session this morning and a few dry retches at work but still starving and NEEDING bread!!!! The early start may have been the issue this morning, havent had to get up at 05:30 for a few weeks and i have no spare minutes from alarm to car to stomach settle :)

A colleague at work came to tell me they were pg today......how hard not to say something LOL

I am definitely putting weight on, i think its all the bread im eating.....tummy is so big in the evenings, but definitely bloated not bump. Nothing original for our name...its 'the bean'

janice i read somewhere that after doing the deed your cervix can shed cells etc causing some bleeding, so im sure its nothing to worry about. Proud of you for feeling up to it LOL

Beesok · 27/10/2010 17:22

we call it ....kitten (I know lame but I am cat obssessed ;) sometimes antoor (which is arabic and a bit of a inside joke that frineds came up with actually ;)
or just baby ;)

moomin156 · 27/10/2010 17:30

and looking at names.....

Boys - 1 in top 10, 2 not on list
Girls - 2 in top 100, 1 not on list

But i know they will change so many times over the next 7 months. My mom changed my name after i was born as i didnt look my original name LOL

CuppaMouldyBatBallsBrothJanice · 27/10/2010 17:47

Thanks moomin - I didn't really feel up for it to be honest but DP looked at me with puppy dog eyes and I felt a bit mean making him do without for 6 weeks!! Needless to say, we won't be doing it again until after the 12 week scan!

We didn't find out the sex of DS, so the bump was Cecil one day and Cecile the next, alternately. DP started to really like the name Cecil though and tried to convince me it would be a good name!! He's come up with Bill this time - I think it's going to be a long time before we come up with a boys name we both like!

NatMac · 27/10/2010 18:01

Helloo, can I join you please? I don't know all the abbreviations etc but will do my best to learn them! I'm 5 weeks and four days with baby no 3 (a surprise one this time!) - am due about 25th June. Just about got my head around it all. Have a few symptoms, mainly having the most painful boobs in the world - prob TMI.

Anyway, looking forward to sharing this journey with you all! X

petitech · 27/10/2010 18:17

Which lucky person said they had a flat stomach still :-) not I, even with all the puking! I think I'm 8+3 today. I got really upset last night crying because the sickness is just so bad, I'm basically throwing up at least 3 times a day and in between feeling extreme nausea. I reckon I get a good half hour within every 3 hours and that's it.
I know it's for a good cause but I didn't realise it would be as relentless as this. The thought of another four weeks of this just makes me feel totally overwhelmed. I saw thing online for preggie drops sweets, supposed to help, could be complete marketing gimmic but at this point I'm willing to try anything (within reason!)

takethatlady · 27/10/2010 18:19

mouldybatballs I had this yesterday - only once in the morning. I'm going to the doctor's tomorrow and will mention it but it went away straight away so I'm guessing it's nothing to worry about. I think if it's bright red and accompanied by cramps that's a problem. If your doc says it's okay it probably is :)

We had two names which are family names and if we'd had a child 2 months ago they would have been called this ... now I hate both names! This is a problem.

Now have a new girl's and a new boy's name. The girl's name is pretty and classic but isn't even in the top 100. The boy's name is in the 90s, though it's nickname is in the 50s. Again it's classic and well known.

PRobably I'll hate both those names by the time it all comes around Grin

Wobblewatcher · 27/10/2010 18:21

Hi NatMac and welcome. Hi to everyone else. Having another anxious 5 minutes because I have somehow convinced myself that with DD I was being sick by now Blush I need to CALM DOWN!!!!!!

I'm sure I wasn't, and anyway, wouldn't mean much if I was...

Brought my reflexology forward and DP gone out to buy me some trashy mags to take my mind off it all!!

I have some pain in my ovaries, not sure what that means but of course that is too worrying me!!

AAAArrrGGGGhhhhhhhhh!!!

moomin156 · 27/10/2010 18:24

when looking at the statistics.....look at table 6 across the bottom tabs and you will see hundreds of names and number of children that were named. To find your name press Ctrl(control) F and type the name in the box and it will find it for you.
Apologies if i am telling you something you know already Blush

cep · 27/10/2010 18:35

evening all. Again welcome newbies and congratulations - i seem to be saying this at least twice a day. Grin

Nurse - i get pains on the right hand side everyday for over a week if not 2, a bit like mild period pains, has been a bit worse today. i was getting pains in my back like sharp jabs, now i just seem to have a constant ache.
dr assures me that everything is normal, so i can only wait for my 12 weeks scan to make sure. Which i haven't received an appointment letter for yet.

Most Girls names aren't on the list 1 is number 11 i think it was, still can't think of any boys names (dh is now suggesting names from nemo such as bruce or crush) Biscuit

moomin156 · 27/10/2010 18:40

The lists are great......DH is now going for the names from the historical top100....lists 1904, 1914 and 1924!!!!!
We will end up with a Horace or a Norman LOL

Want2bSupermum · 27/10/2010 18:41

Not sure if I will be delivering our little bundle of joy in June or July (June 30th). We are due to relocate at the end of April but trying to put it off so I can deliver here in the US. I have my first proper dr appointment in November and they mailed a huge pile of info sheets to me. As we are pushing off the relocation we are going to try and decide on a daycare. Places go fast and three of our original four picks won't have space for us in October next year (thats if we are still here).

I normally have oatmeal for breakfast but I can't go near it at the moment. I also have a funny sensation which kinda feels like my cervix is numb. No bleeding so I assume everything is ok. Has anyone else had that?

petitech · 27/10/2010 18:50

Thought I'd catch up a bit....
evs34 - yes i feel fat already, have resorted to dresses instead of trousers although will def need bigger tights soon lol
takethatlady - couldnt agree more re Robbie & Take That, had to turn over from Radio 1 this morning as the interview was making me irrationally angry!
cuppa...Janice this is exactly what I had for a full week, I think mine was prolonged due to the internal scan and smear I had as a result of going to the GP but touch wood everything is fine now even though it was every day for a week, I say everything is fine, I assume it is as am feeling progressively more ill

How's everyone's work situation going? I feel slightly 'vacant' which isnt great and also my boss is starting to massively favour a younger (non child bearing age) fellow employee, very blatantly, which is making me feel pretty anxious :s

PS does anyone else have sciatica? i have a numb patch above my right knee which i googled could be sciatica... oh the glamour of it all!
