Early poas-er seeks other December 2012 due dates

I've just had the official confirmation from my digital clearblue test after many a faint line. I have calculated my due date as 5th December and conception started with a curry, how much information am I supposed to share? Boobs aren't sore yet, just a bit bigger. Have had a horrific cold/flu/sore throat for a week and I am very very irrational.

Anyone else out there?

Hi strawberry! I've POAS many times I. The last few days and the line is getting stronger. Fingers crossed, I'll be due on 2nd December.

Not much in the way of symptoms until today, I'm exhausted and peeing every 5 minutes. Boobs are sensitive and a little swollen but not as much as the week before AF is due. I've also get like I've had a cold coming on for the last week, I'd just put it down to work stress!

We were off to stay with friends on the weeked I was due to ovulate so we got home from work, SWI and then jumped on the train! I think that was our lucky day and it's the only time I didn't stay horizontal with my legs in the air or half an hour afterwards!!

It's so typical isn't it? We were relatively active in trying for the last two months and then this month I'd decided as we were so close to our holiday (April) it may be best to wait. The one month we weren't trying it happens!!

My cold and chesty cough don't seem to be shifting, I don't think I can drink lemsip now either??

I am definitely queasy now and have an amazing sense of smell (even through the cold). Is this your first pg? I have 1 dd who is 3.6.

PrimalChic · 26/03/2012 14:34

Yep, first pg.

Can't stop sneezing! No sickness or nausea yet, just fast growing boobs! And boy, could I do with a nap. I'm in meetings til 9 tonight so DH has offered to run me a bath. Am I allowed one?!

No more lemsip, Brie, strong coffee or late nights...

I booked a docs appt for next week so DH can come too. What happens at your first appt? Do I need to prepared with questions? Bbt charts? CM notes? Spreadsheets?! (yes, I have a period spreadsheet) :)

RainWalker · 27/03/2012 08:23

Need a bit of hand holding, I haven't actually poas yet, and am scared Sad

I have been feeling exhausted, my back is killing and I've had constant nausea for the last 3 days, and threw up this morning Sad

It may just be a virus as I have 17 month old twins, and have not been trying at all, was about to book in for a mirena Shock

I think I need to go and buy a test, just so scared at how I'll cope if I am, was planning to wait until they were at school!

pleasebethismonth · 27/03/2012 09:14

please can I join? Got my BFP last Thursday (it still feels a bit surreal as I hardly have any symptoms) trying not to get too excited but proving impossible! I think I am due 30th Nov/1st Dec? Is that cheating or can i join?! congratulations to everyone so far!

Let us know rain, you should buy a test today!!

I remember last time they wouldn't even give me a test at the drs to verify I was pregnant and I really wanted them too just so I could prove it. We moved a couple of months ago and I haven't changed dr yet as we have a life insurance policy pending so it was best to keep the notes in one place but I will have to this week I think.

Last night I called NHS direct because I couldn't breathe without coughing and I asked dh if he thought I had pneumonia hus response was 'I had wondered'. Thanks for that dh?! Surely if you thought that you might encourage someone you love to see a dr, I know it's my responsibility and iabu but my hormones wanted to kill him. My chloraseptic spray is next to me and dh bought two packs of lemsip the day I found out I was pregnant and it is all making me very upset.

have you poas yet Rain? let us know how you get on.

Is that wishful thinking Issimma? I went overdue with my Dd so know how annoying it is!

RainWalker · 27/03/2012 14:28

Well I've got D&V Sad assume it's a virus as each twin had it for 3 days each and now it's my turn.
I'm rubbish about when my period is due, I was on the pill for 15 years came off to ttc and was pregnant within 6 weeks Shock, we have been using condoms with no problems but there is that minuscule chance. Not sure if I'm feaking myself out but I feel pregnant Confused think I am due any day now, had a brown spot (sorry if tmi) but am assuming implantation bleed, I had that last time.
If I feel better tomorrow, I'll be off to the chemist!

Yep, spreadsheets. :)

I have twinges, mostly on one side, is this normal? It's in the same spot for most of the time, always on my left. Does anyone else feel anything like this? I feel pulling or light cramps elsewhere but it's consistently in one place... It could just be wind!

StrawberrytallCAKE · 27/03/2012 18:21

I have been feeling a bit better since this morning, thanks :)

dd is 3yrs and with the sunshine is enjoying playing tag a lot which is lovely but quite tiring! I was 2 weeks late with her (although by my calculations I was 17 days late) which was interesting but my birth after induction was fantastic and I hope it's just as good this time, fingers crossed everything is ok.

We go to Florida at the end of April so I've booked an early scan for the 19th to check everything is ok before we go.

Primal I'm having lots of twinges on my right side only so I think it's normal I am a tad worried that I've not been having many other cramps though my uterus might already be quite stretchy from last time.

PrimalChic · 27/03/2012 20:11

Thanks Strawberry that's reassuring! And Florida, brilliant! You lucky thing.

StrawberrytallCAKE · 27/03/2012 21:04

Yes not sure about morning sickness in hour long queues, I wonder if they make any concessions for pregnant ladies?

I'd like to join. I got a nice clear positive in the middle of yesterday afternoon at 11dpo, if it works out I think the due date will be about December 6th. I've had chemical pregnancies/early losses by five weeks the last two months (Jan and Feb) so staying quite cautious but for some reason I feel much better about this one and more confident. The bfp was a lot earlier (and clearer) too.

I've been feeling increasingly ill for about 10 days but I started feeling ill incredibly early the last two times as well so that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Though I have had cramps the last couple of days which are different (not quite like pre-period cramps, more pinchy somehow) and also I had a migraine today. I used to get them quite a lot as a student but hardly ever do now as I'm good about avoiding all the triggers so I'm not sure what brought it on.

Fingers crossed rain for the result you want.

Superunknown · 27/03/2012 22:05

Hello, I got a positive line yesterday morning. I've had aching boobs since a weeks last Friday and am hungrier than usual. Also finding that I'm a bit more teary than usual and quite tired. It's my first pregnancy and although very much hoped for, I am terrified!! DH is very risk averse so keeps telling me not to get my hopes up. It's SO hard not talking to people about it isn't it!!!

rain I hope all well...

And, hello to everyone else!!

Superunknown · 27/03/2012 22:06

Ps, DD about 4th December by my calcs...

kazzaq · 27/03/2012 22:07

Hello, can I join my due date is 2nd Dec.
I had an ectopic in December so have a scan booked at 6 weeks. Until then we dont know that all is going ok this time... Fingers crossed :-)

pleasebethismonth · 27/03/2012 22:09

issimma- sorry am I being thick? what is an elcs?

My dd is 2 and she was 10 (nearly11!!) days over due which felt like an eternity! I cried on my due date and felt so cheated!

Strawberry- I am very jealous of your trip to Florida!!

Kalidasa- welcome and congratulations, really hope it works out for you this time. Do you have any other children?
