Jue in June - continuation of "Due June 2011? please join me!!!" thread

[wonnaywombat]

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!)

congratulations crumble and happy birthday sasamaxx.

Well thankfully the nurse came out to see us after a few minutes saying they'll phone to book a scan so we didn't have to wait everyone else had a 3 hr wait. Just had the call to book me in for a scan on tuesday. So fingers crossed, hopefully i'll be able to sleep tonight (i want to finish the dream about the italian guy yum)

hope everyone else is ok, and thanks again for the words of comfort.

Ladies, many thanks for your kind words.
I had to stay in overnight because it was about 11pm at night before they got to us as I was on the emergency theatre list. We'd been there since 9am so it was a LONG day.

Back home now and it's all over. Physically at least.

Got to get my head together so we can try again. I'm getting proper old and it took us two years to concieve this time around.
Must. Stay. Positive.
But God it's hard.

Thanks for all your kind words and the very best of luck to all of you. xxxx

Supersunny thanks and good luck to you too! Hope it goes well :)

This must be such a worrying time for you Cep, I'm really thinking of you and sending you good thoughts and hopes. I'm sure everything is fine, you hear about some women who's periods don't stop the entire way through their pregnancys. At least you'll get a scan on tuesday and will see your healthy little baby for the first time :)

Happy Birthday Sasamaxx Hope you're having a fab, ms free day and are being looked after :)

I'm ok now, thanks for asking, DP and I have sorted it out. Off to view a house tomorrow (the house of my DREAMS!!!), it's so so so lovely, big garden for the baby to play in, in a nice quiet area and it's a bit out of the way so it's ridiculously cheap! Very excited, cross your fingers for me [hgrin]

Hope everyone's feeling ok today, I'm consuming tic tacs like they're going out of fashion, it's the only thing that keeps the ms at bay

Wow think we need a summariser working on this thread it takes me ages to catch up! Still think I've missed some stuff.

We've been looking at houses too nurse and I can't help thinking about which room would be the nursery! Just wish someone would buy our bloody house! If all goes well then we've only got 7 months to move

I went to a Halloween party last night. Had a great time despite my soberness! Few pictures went on facebook and one of my friends text my best mate (whose party it was) to ask if I was pregnant because I was drinking water! Wouldn't mind but it was lime and lemonade (aka virgin vodka lime and lemonade). Some people are too nosey. Off to a 30th next weekend will have to make sure I get pictured with a large glass to rose!

Can't wait till it's been 12 weeks- told a few friends who are very excited but I've had to stop myself getting too excited yet. Less than 3 weeks till wait till scan

Just told MIL, didn't even get a congratulations . As my name suggests it was my idea at first to have another, we have a dd11 and ds9 and to be fair when we had ds it was one of each which is what we originally said we wanted. As dd grew older I got more and more broody and it would be a bit of a standing joke that I wanted another but Dh wasn't as keen for the last 3 years. Well he has since come around to the idea, it was while we were on holiday and both the kids were off playing around the hotel and me and him were sat watching all the little kids at the mini-disco wishing we could do the baby thing again.
Well we didn't tell anyone that we were trying.
Dh rang his mum to tell her this morning and she didn't believe him!!
She has just been around "to bring us some scotch eggs" . I showed her the tests and she said to dh "I thought you didnt want anymore", he continued watching the football and then looked up and joked "she raped me"!!!!! I said "hardly ! we have been trying for three months."
She turned around and just said oh well i'll keep it to myself.
I'm seething 1 at my DH for saying I raped him!! 40 odd times i don't think so! he is dead excited and has been talking about wanting to find out what we have! and 2 for her reaction, I know it must have been a shock for her but she must have been able to see we ere both happy about it.
Rant over........back to worrying about why I havn't got MS this time.

Lobster glad you are out of hospital and at least have the physical part out of the way. It is so hard to start again, I'm 37 and it took us over a year from the last m/c but I'm crossing everything for you that it will happen quicker this time.

I am sure you've looked into lots of things but I'd just like to mention that this time round I had acupuncture and i don't know if it made a difference or not but month later I was pregnant. Sorry if this is not helpful but it helped me to feel I was doing something positive.

sasamaxx Happy Birthday

sunshine really glad to hear you've sorted things out, good luck with the dream house.

cep fingers crossed for the scan on Tues, hopefully the spotting has gone away?

It's very exciting that Beesok and and Sunny also have scans next week, feels like we are getting somewhere.

Clarkiee people are nosy aren't they? If you'd have wanted them to know you'd have told them yourself.

Am cooking roast chicken tonight with roast potatoes. yum yum.

broughthimround sorry crossed posts! That does sound really annoying, hopefully she'll come back with a better reaction when she's had time to think about it? Don't really know what else to say but I know I would be furious

Re morning sickness, I haven't had any at all and I guess they do say that every pregnancy is different? How far along are you now (sorry I can't seem to keep track!)

Yeah broughthimround I can see why you're so p*ssed off!!! Anyone would be! Extra annoying when DH makes such unhelpful comments too (mine does that occasionally)!

Yes yellowtomato I'd never ask anyone because like you say if they wanted you to know they would have told you. Also think it's unfair to ask my best friend- putting her in an awkward position of having to lie for me- grrrr. No ms for me either!?!

It's very easy to cross post on such a busy forum yellowtomato no worries :) I'm 7+2 and have first midwife/booking in app next weekend, at which I will let on how worried I am about it in the hope she will think I am stressed out enough to get an early scan! or say saomething to ease my worries.
I'm sending DH around to pick up DS on his own from her house on thursday when she is having him after school. Hopefully she will quiz him and he will tell her he is pleased about it and I havn't bullied/tricked him into it!! I just know she will be on the phone right now to all her sisters about it though!

Broughthimround - is your DH usually that tactless!!

Lobsterlass - please be kind to yourself {{{hugs}}}

Cep - that's good that you got an appointment so quickly. Fingers crossed for you on Tuesday. Have you had any more bleeding?

Clarkiee- I know what you mean about getting excited, I have let slip to a few friends. Am going to see my mum in 2 weeks so will tell her them, think I would have to if the ms doesn't let up!

Sassamax - happy birthday!!!

Yellowtomato - honestly M/S is not a guaranteed sign that things are going well.

My friend burst into tears in the middle of the shopping centre when I told her- ha ha, bless her

cep hope all went well. Are you okay?

crumbletastic congrats on your wedding! Glad all went swimmingly :)

pozzle, I know what you mean about not allowing yourself to feel too involved in the pregnancy. We told family this weekend and my mum couldn't contain her excitement and kept sort of tutting at me for being 'anxious' but I just want to keep things low key for a while, especially since last time I had a mc two days after we told family. She can't help herself though. Tut

8rubberduckies congratulations on your smoking! That's good going!

My kidney infection is still with me, despite the antibiotics. It definitely hasn't got worse but I'm not sure it's got better either. It's not really bad pain, just constantly uncomfortable. Praying it is not doing any damage to the baby. Just wish it was Christmas and I was 13 weeks pregnant! I'm sure everyone on here feels like that :)

Hope you all had nice weekends.

broughthimround I think you need to do the total opposite of 'raping' your DH for a while. Teach him a lesson! As for your MIL, well, she sounds annoying too. Your DH has got about 7 months to make sure your MIL knows he wanted the baby - he'd better get ladling it on nice and thick from now on I reckon!

BarbieLovesKen Not nt a law lecturer - I'm a subject librarian for science, engineering & psychology but I also seem to hAve become the main coyright 'expert' in the library.

As for the heartbeat, after 9 week is a heartbeat is seen then the chance of miscarriage falls to the same as the second trimester. The reasoning is afer u/s become routine they discovered that most of the late first trimester m/c were actually missed m/c where embryonic death had occured before 9weeks.

Happy Birthday EDD twin sasamaxx
I'm feeling thoroughly depressed now my mum told me, quite often morning sickness goes on until 14 weeks.... :( :( :( Has anyone found any good cures, I am getting to my wits end... being sick at least three times a day now

super - mine's for 9:10 are we supposed to have a full bladder? the dr who called didn't really say much in fact she told me to be 'here' 15 mins early but didn't actually tell me where here was, i didn't notice till the dh asked. As the epu is at the hosp i assume it's there.

Nurse - I really hope so am really nervious about the scan though, it was weird the nearer i got to a&e i more i didn't actually want to go in i was so scared.

TTL - I'm trying not to think about it too much, my stomach's hurtng a bit more than it had been but the blood hasn't got any worse, sometimes it's there when i wipe sometimes it isn't. The triage nurse told me to rest and my dh to pamper me. HA.

Broughthimround - my dh didn't want another one and infact only gave in cause i wanted one so much. I know what it's like with the i/laws my mil should be fine but the bil i'm dreading it. Last time one of them misheard who was pregnant and thought it was dh's ex and he said "can't keep her bloody legs together". i'm like cheers. the other bil just said, why?? i think i'll tell my sil's and leave it to them to tell them (keeping positive thoughts.)

Sorry if i've not mentioned anyone's news i hope you are all ok.

right i'm going to have a read in the bath and an early night. as the ds didn't seem to realise the clocks had gone forward.

Night all, sweet dreams. (where's my italian man)

Cep glad to read that they sorted out a scan for you and without a horrendous wait in A&E. They will probably have to do an internal scan at pre-10w in which case you eed an empty bladder. Personally I always opt for an internal straight off as I hate having to have a tummy on and then go to the loo so they can get a better view with an internal - I'd rather get stright to the point.

I had bleeding with the garklet at 5, 8 and 9 weeks so I know how nerve-wracking it can be. I've got my fingers crossed for you.

Evening all ladies,

I've just got back from a week in the New Forest with the family which was great. Down side, 7000 posts to try and catch up on!

Hope all are well and not stressing too much about all those things that seem to send us over the edge! cep - glad you have a scan booked for tuesday, hopefully set your mind at ease. I have one on tuesday as well so fingers crossed for both of us :)

broughthimround - so helpful comments like that aren't they! When I told people about my last pregnancy, almost everyone asked whether it was planned because our youngest is now 4. Dh just remained quiet and let me say yes, as if he wasn't just as much a part! At least this time I won't have to answer that question again as clearly we wouldn't have an 'accident' twice!

Happy birthday sasamaxx hope you've had a good birthday night and aren't too tired from it!

Oh well, children back tomorrow so back to 5 afternoons to myself . . . . think I might sleep

Sleep well

OK so it's probably time to stop lurking and say hello. I think this baby is due in June (probably the weekend of my sister-in-law's wedding, and I have already booked a whole weekend in the posh hotel and I've paid for it so I'm jolly well going)

This will be DC4 and DS is only 9 months so obviously it wasn't planned.

Anyway - who was stressing about blood tests?
petitech if you are really freaked by needles, then you can refuse all blood tests. I hate needles and have to do weird deep breathing when I have them done (and make cow noises). I then make sure I go and treat myself to a nice cake as a reward for being a good girl for the midwife. I also tell myself that only very very odd people like having needles stuck in them so we are the normal ones.

It appears to be 10pm - off to bed for a few hours before DS squeaks for his first of his usual multiple night feeds. Here's praying that both my DD's go to pre-school tomorrow morning and I can have a lazy baby day.

O and of course I feel sick and sick with worry, but that goes without saying - night all!
