The Broadly Gemini Luxury Bus

[Thundernonk]

Formally known as EDD late May/Early June etc etc bus, jump on here for tmi, moaning mutual support and free smoothies.

Hi everyone,

Thunder if you're still reading, I'm so sorry to hear of your news and the way you found out. It sounds similar to my mmc in June, and I know what you mean about how they can tell instantly that something's not right. I really hope you are getting lots of love and hugs from your nearest and know that I'm thinking of you. Good luck for the future xx

I haven't looked on any other pregnancy threads recently, but I agree with Kitty and Pear that this is the BEST thread for people being just lovely and supportive, if a little boob-obsessed at times (!) Hearing sad news makes me realise how I've come to care about you guys and your news and just really hope that we all get to a happy outcome next year.

I've got my scan on Saturday 17th, only 5 days to go. I can't wait for OH to see baby. I've felt my sickness has really lifted over the past week, which is such a relief. Still feeling sick, particularly when brushign my teeth, but none of that constant low-level nausea anymore. And boy is my appetite back, I can't stop eating!

I know that I shouldn't be even starting to show at 11+weeks but I think I might be - eeek. Boyf is not impressed.

Has anyone else been arguing with their OH more than usual? And when are my nipples going to STOP ITCHING???!?!

Hi kitty yours is the day before mine. It still feels like ages away.

Good that your nausea is passing merry glad your appitite is back. I'm terribly bitch to DH when I'm pregnant, so it's not just you.

trumpets my house doesn't get cleaned for impromptu visits, I figure if people want me to tidy they can give me at least 2 days notice.

I've only just managed to sit down, busy at work and no signal so couldn't even catch up at lunchtime. Then dd bumped her head at school, so taken a dopey dd down to a&e only for her to brighten up once we got to see someone. Which is Sod's law good because at least we didn't have to stay in. She's goning to have a shiner.

Snap on the arguing frontiers, had to apologise to dh yesterday as he keeps saying are you in a mood with me? Have I done something wrong, but I'm so tired, the snapping tonight has been about 2 things, one, what did I want for tea, apparently me saying you pick wasn't good enough, it would be wrong and two because I had put my hand up to stop him telling me about an episode of peppa pig he likes as a) he's told me before and b) dd was crying which was irritating as he expected me to listen with crying down my ear trying to sort her! Grrrrrr
Frus, what a day hey and yes always the way when you take them the doctors- cue running around playing happily!

Also snap on itchy nipples!! Are you my pregnancy twin merry?!

Ha ha...I am a grumpy preggo wife! Just not able to tolerate anything. Even DH just being over-affectionate when I'm doing something! I'm evil :-/

And arrrrghhh to itchy nipples. Can totally relate. On and off, but SO annoying.

Yep I'm a lot less tolerant with everything mostly DH Glad to see everyone is enjoying their itchy nipples

I'm doing the first sensible thing and going to bed early. Goodbye and farewell 1st Trimester! See you all in the morning

Shit...tiny amount of blood on the loo roll :-( Only on - hard - wiping, but it is definitely there. Buggeration.

Yeah kitty it's the 2nd time we've done it to the same nurse. And she remembered dd but at least this time she witnessed dopey dd before she livened up. [see I'm not over reacting emoticon].

Hmm I don't have itchy nipples. Should I be worried?

Oh mrs I hope it's just your cervix and nothing more serious.

It really is a tiny amount...wiped 4 times and only twice. And barely anything.

If you had a small cut and wiped it, it would be about the same. Not even like spotting.

Hmmm...see how it goes, I suppose.

Nicola don't worry I think it's ok. I had that one spot of blood on toilet roll at 9 weeks which is about where you are right? It happened after my walk at lunch why do walks do me harm!!

Was your scan internal?

Could you have a small cut? take it very easy, lots of rest.

Walking is clearly bad!!

No, scan was external. It was a very small amount. Have to see if it gets worse.

I'm at 8+2 today.

Don't think I have a cut.

Serious TMI alert...I had a big poo which required a little, um, effort. That may have strained something! Sorry :-/

Tmi mrs but was it from the front? the straining can, uhum, make you bleed from there

Yes...I did check that too! All bases covered, as it were.

It was really tiny. Beginning to think I shouldn't have said anything as it could be nothing. :-/

It could be nothing mrs, and pear had a spot that was nothing serious, If you are worried a quick phone to the midwife may set your mind at rest, they really won't mind.

I'll see if I get more next time I go to the loo. There's no extra cramping at all, so could be something and nothing.

Will keep my fingers crossed.

If it is worse I'll call the midwife.

I had that TMI bleeding issue last pregnancy... I completely freaked out & called the OOH GP. He called me back about midnight & was v nice & calming!

On another note, I can see where my fundus is. It dips in around the top and top sides, so is clear to see now, which just goes to show that my big fat making me look pregnant belly is just my gut

That's interesting to know, Jojo...shows it is possible. :-)

I still can't work the fundus thing out, Frustrated!

Mrs imagine a grapefruit under your pubic bone, that is slowly rising up towards your belly button. But you can only see a tiny part of it. Like a tiny mini 6pack for your belly, just without the muscles, the top of mine is just under my knicker elastic.

Mine rounds back in about an inch and a half above my pubic line.
