Early poas-er seeks other December 2012 due dates

StrawberrytallCAKE · 24/03/2012 16:03

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?

minipie seems we share a few similarities - i think i ought to have a 7th/8th edd based on more precise calculations - then there's the the b/sil expectancy thing too. this is a great place for feeling less alone in the craziness of it all.

gilsbubbles glad everything's ok, it must be so soothing to have seen proof that little bean's progressing nicely

Just to all the ladies with no symptoms my hairdresser has just had her ds and she sailed through 9 months with nothing but a bump. No sickness, tiredness, funny tastes or smells, nothing. I know it so hard not to worry but it does happen x

annelid · 19/04/2012 13:44

Found out on Sunday I am pregnant. Due date about Dec 20th. Just thought I'd say hi!

minipie · 19/04/2012 13:50

hello annelid, congratulations and welcome!

CODwidow · 19/04/2012 14:30

Oh dear I fell asleep again!! Not sure how I'm going to get any work done! I've made none of my calls again!! Ooops.

whatmess · 19/04/2012 14:41

Hi Everyone, welcome and congratulations Anne.

I had a bit of a runny tummy yesterday which scared me but luckily it seems to have been a 24 hr thing. I must be more careful about what I eat. Sickness is well and truly here and stuffing my face, no longer helps. I'm actually going off anything with the slightest bit of a smell to it. I shall be on plain potatoes and bread soon, I imagine.

I'm looking forward to my first booking appointment next week Wednesday. I am going to ask for an early scan but not sure what my chances of getting one are. I am worried as I had a MC with my last pregnancy, but I don't know if that is enough to warrant the early scan. I will try anyway. What do you think?

Otherwise it's all quiet here. I'm shattered today as I didn't get much sleep last night, but it's dd's half day at nursery so no chance of a kip [sigh].

Hope everyone is doing well.

blackcurrants · 19/04/2012 14:51

I can't keep up with you chatty lot! :)

So tired here. DS waking at 5.30 and I'm absolutely exhausted by the time he goes to bed at 8pm. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Working from home today, might try to get a nap in later on. I can't wait for this tiredness to go!

ivanapoo · 19/04/2012 14:53

Hi everyone, I POAS on Tuesday and I think I am due Dec 7th.

Had my early preg info session with midwives today, it was really lovely to see loads of other people all at the same stage as me. Some of them poor things were really suffering from the sickness/tiredness. I'm tired but dealing with it and not feeling too sick luckily.

I just had a meeting with a client and just about managed to string enough words together to not look like a total clown. The usually delicious sandwiches had some mustard on though and even though I love(d) mustard it made me want to barf.

I keep pressing my boobs to check they still hurt Blush

CupOfBrownJoy · 19/04/2012 14:56

I've found you all!

I've been cruising about in "Pregnancy" wondering why there wasn't a december babies thread, and here you are!

I got my bfp on Saturday, and I'm 5 weeks 1 day, edd is 19th December. This is number 1 and DP and I don't have an honest clue about what is going on, so we're both devouring everything we can read on the internet. He's more excited than me - almost!!

I've also got no symptoms whatsoever - I've been tired today and I keep thinking am I just tired? Or is this pg-tiredness? I actually went for a 9k run yesterday, I've been feeling really positive and full of energy this week, making sure I eat a healthy diet (which I usually do anyway) and I've hardly wanted anything sweet and sugary. I suppose that will come!

I've got a gynae appointment on Monday evening (non UK, you see a gynae the whole way through over here) and the main things I want to ask about are diet, exercise (I ride too, which I know is a bit of a no-no), supplements and also susceptibility to illness. I'm a primary teacher and there's been a lot of scarlet fever around recently, plus there's the German measles risk....

Anyway, I hope I can join your thread, and congratulations to all you updiffed ladies. I have everything firmly crossed that all the tadpoles are sticky!! Smile

Chloe55 · 19/04/2012 17:49

Welcome all the recent ladies Smile

Just had my booking in appointment. The midwife did mention that as I am having an early scan (under consultant's request) I may not get the 12 week dating scan so it could be a long time between scans for me and to not get stressed about it but to pop in for an appointment around 14wks for a listen to the heartbeat. I am gonna push for the 12 week scan too as it will proper stress me out if I don't get it due to the MMC - had an early scan at 9wks as was bleeding, all fine at that scan but at the 12wks scan they saw baby had died presumably not long after my first scan Sad There's no way I can wait that long between scans. So basically ladies, be aware that if you are wanting to push for an early scan it may be that you lose the opportunity to see a much clearer baby at 12wks.

CODwidow · 19/04/2012 18:20

chloe that's why I'm reluctant to ask for an earlier one as think I'd rather wait til 12 weeks as wont be having a scan at 16wks like last time.

nasara · 19/04/2012 18:45

I thought they could only do the nt scan between 11 and 13 weeks? So even if you have an early scan, you are entitled to the nt one?

pleasebethismonth · 19/04/2012 18:53

I had an early scan at 8 weeks with my dd and that was it until 20 weeks.

FloDoMo · 19/04/2012 19:26

Hello Ladies. Would love to join the group. Am due on 20 Dec with DC2. Have done a few tests as have only felt queasy for one day so far, and last time I was sick ALL THE TIME and thought I must have imagined the positive result when I did the first POAS.

I think I must've forgotten everything about being pregnant before and it was only 2 years ago. Do you have to see a doc before making your booking in appt? When does the booking in appt happen? Help!

Very exciting... :-)

MyDaydream · 19/04/2012 19:31

I got told with my last pregnancy that because I'd had an early scan I wouldn't get a 12 week. It's what put me off asking for an early scan this time, did look into paying for my own early, but going to try be patient instead.

For those who got faint BFPs when did you notice the lines getting darker? Mine don't seem to be getting darker, and it's making me a bit worried it's not going to stick. I just want a line as dark as the control line!

Hmm, been trying out a couple of acupressure wrist bands tonight. So far the jury is out or rather they've made no difference yet. Still feel blurgh.

PrunellaDeVille · 19/04/2012 20:33

anyone get huge stomach pains from unexpected coughs/sneezes? very disturbing

ScrambledSmegs · 19/04/2012 20:43

Hello everyone. Sorry I've not been hanging out on here much, I'm still in a weird place right now. I've got a scan due in less than a fortnight plus the MW booking in appointment next week. Hopefully I will be able to get over this weird 'hump' when I get some confirmation that all is well.

I've been given my 12 week scan date too. I assume that because I self-referred to the ante-natal department that I somehow bypassed the scan rules Grin Good tip, that!

Bellaboo123 · 19/04/2012 21:11

kiwi5 · 19/04/2012 21:35

purple sorry to hear about your dh, fingers crossed, something will happen soon for you.

Have been drinking fruit teas and also ginger beer and hot water goes down a treat.

Dd just been woken up by massive hailstorm, ended up cuddling on the sofa - I know it's bad, but it's so lovely to have the cuddles, plus she is a great hot water bottle!
So much rubbish tv watching here too!

Scan tomorrow, fingers crossed, there's a heart beat.
