Nov 12 babies

[Gingerbreadlatte]

Hello
I had a bfp yesterday. Due 1st Nov. Anyone else due in Nov yet ?

It's dc 2 for me!

Today I am exhausted! But I am blaming the three 10 year olds I have bouncing around upstairs! It has been a busy and long day, and all I want is to crawl to bed - and there is no chance of that!!

I have loads of cramps today, but I know its normal, so I am trying to ignore them. Would really like a bath, but that isn't gonna happen! This pregnancy sure feels different from last time! Here is hoping (fingers crossed) that the hyperemesis stays at bay! Another week and i'll be past my danger point!

Excuse me while I just go and strangle some children (do I really want to do all this again?!!!)

Thanks OMGBFP and izzybizzy I will defintiely check it out. I never temped with my last 2 pregnancies - perhaps it's completely normal for me!

DH21 I "quit" smoking when pregnant with son but started again when I stopped breastfeeding him at 9 months as husband was still smoking so my tempatation gave in. As soon as I was pregnant with no2 I gave up immediately and have never, ever had a drag since - the idea actually completely repulses me now - so it is definitely possible to get over it once and for all! Good luck!

Had a walk to the supermarket and was getting a lot of cramping/twinging on the left side. Hopefully it's only as I've not been up off the sofa all week!

Thanks bimble that's what I'm hoping. I don't think dh will give up ever yet but I've got through a whole day already so I think I'll be ok :)

Good luck DP21, don't go all Stacy Solomon on us! :)

you can do it Dh21 :) everytime you want one, go and do something with your hands, just MN all the while?

I just told my Dad the news as he rang to say happy birthday to DS. He rarely rings, so thought I'd just let him know. His reply was 'who is the father'.

FAFS. My parents suit each other. Shame they are divorced.

GRRRRRRR.

nice reaction!

A friend of mine once went to her booking in for her 4th baby at 25yo and was sneeringly asked if they all had the same father (they were but even so sheesh! the way it was asked!)

hello can I join? I'm amazed how long ago some of you have had BFPs! I've only just got mine, after 10 days of BFNs so I'm a little nervous, although my mother (!) reminded me that the same happened last time, and I had completely forgotten (and the result is now a terrorising 22 month old who currently has self inflicted nail varnished cheeks). Anyway, I am a worrier, so forgive me if I just lurk for a bit. Due date should be 5 Nov. I have 2 DDs and a SDD. Congratulations everyone!

Christ am just reading your baby news responses - I hope your Dad was joking Thedetective?

DH21 - hello again! When I quit smoking, some years ago now, I found something on a website that gave a day to day update on how all the crap was getting out of my body, I found it quite helpful. There is a similar one here:
whyquit.com/whyquit/a_benefits_time_table.html
good luck!

He probably wasn't booboo I have strange parents. Even though I've been with DP 2 1/2 years. You see, what he was probably hoping for is that I would say 'after a whirlwind romance with a doctor from work, he is now signed his very expensive property over to me, and agreed to marry me and give me lots of expensive gifts for the rest of my life. And now I am pregnant with his child, he can't get away easily'.

I know how my Dads mind works. He is money money money.

Poor DP doesn't stand a chance, he works in a supermarket and I earn 3 times what he does. And after this baby he will earn even less as he will be doing less hours!!

Ah bollocks to it. We're happy as pigs in muck :)

I went to the cinema to see John Carter in 3D and promptly fell asleep, Dp woke me up towards the end because I was snoring!

I feel really sicky now, and still exhausted! I'm meant to be in London tomorrow night for my Birthday, let's hope I can manage the train in the morning!

Sorry, I forgot to say congratulations Booboo!!!

Ha ha thedetective! Well I suppose at least you know where he's coming from...
Thanks for the congrats!

I am having probs sleeping, despite feeling v tired. Frustrating!

Happy Birthday Titsalina!

Hi,

If I am lying down in bed, on my back, and I sneeze, OMG it hurts! It sort of pulls and hurts down where the baby is growing. I remember this so well from last time. And the funny thing is that when I was about a week pregnant I got this feeling/pain and thought to myself 'haha I must be pregnant' but I really did not belive it at all, but I am!! wierd!

I wonder if this a similar thing to the people who are feeling cramping/twinging? Does it coincide with a sneeze? I'm sure its all the bedding in that the little baby is doing :)

I can't wait to book in with the mdiwife but I have to wait un til 14 weeks!

I have picked out the pram I want and have found it at a good price on eBay so we feel happy about that. I need a double pram. Also I have seen some good cots/toddle beds on eBay so we will go with whatever works out cheapest. ie some cots convert into toddler beds, so we'll buy which ever is going for a good price on eBay and then buy brand new matresses.

yippe its exciting to do some virtual window shopping on eBay!While i was looking at prams and cots, DH was looking at cars! yey. W

We dont have a car ATM so it'll be exciting to get one. It'll be bought with a loan though, but never mind. I can't cope with two LO's on a bus, so I'll be glad of a car.

pasties I have to tense my stomach muscles every time I sneeze or blow my nose to avoid the pulling sensation which is most uncomfortable (understatement alert).

Thanks for the support ladies, I had a really low point yesterday but since then it's actually not been too bad.

I get the painful twinges in bed if I turn over suddenly, I remember that from last time too.

Dh doesn't want to tell his dad til 12 weeks just to make sure it's all ok. Such a long time to keep it a secret!

Also im going to Spain at the beginning of July, works out I'll be around 20 weeks so really hoping it doesn't clash with my second scan.

I have the worst burning pain across both my thighs, is this something I should be concerned by?

Is it like cramp in your thigh muscles - could just be your salt levels being a bot messed up

Congratulations and welcome BooBoo!

Good luck with the giving up smoking DH - I've never been through it myself, but it must be so hard, although I would imagine that a little baby is probably one of the best incentives going?!

I've just got over a 24hr vomiting and diarrehea bug - it was HORRIBLE! DH has it now, and we have everything crossed and touching every bit of wood that DS doesn't get it too! At least I'm better now if he does - I could not have coped with it yesterday that's for sure! The really worrying thing for me was yesterday afternoon and evening when my lower back was aching so badly and only that morning I'd read that that can be a first sign of miscarriage I tried to convince myself that it was because I was ill, so had a bath and an early night and am breathing a MASSIVE sigh of relief that I've woken up and found everything to be 'normal'.

IHP you sound very organised picking out your stuff already! I can't quite bring myself to start thinking about it yet! We've finally managed to sell our little flat (it was on the market before DS was born!) and have nearly exchanged contracts, but took a slightly impulsive decision to put down a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit on a rental that I saw (without DH!) on Wednesday! There's no reason why the sale should fall through, but we're on tenterhooks at the moment until we know for sure! Once we're over that hurdle, we have to pack up and be out of here by 23rd March and are moving into DH's ex-boss's house (sounds complicated, but isn't - honest!) until 1st June, when our new place will be available! So not quite as much to do as you Tomato, but it's going to be fun and games, that's for sure!

Congratulations and welcome BooBoo!

Sorry for double post - mn has been messing around and saying it isn't working.

Hi everyone. How are you all doing? I'm 5+5 now and started to feel some nausea yesterday for the first time. Today I've had my first bout of unexplained tiredness along with the nausea! It's all good though. When I plod along as normal I soon forget about it

Afternoon all :)

Welcome to newcomers, congratulations :)

bit more pulling today. Does anyone know when my extreme fatigue will kick in please? am so sick of not sleeping! I must be the only person looking forward to that tiredness?! I'd do anything to be able to go to sleep normally
Pasties, why do you have to wait till 14weeks for your booking in??
Dh21 how is it going today with the smoking? You can do it :)

Oh and am very very cm-ey and i keep piddling myself when i am coughing and sneezing, isn't pregnancy glamourous?? Thought we were supposed to glow and all that shizzle??!
