This will be my secomd dc. Torn between delight and fear it will all go wrong. Dd october 3 by my reckoning.
Cant tell anyone except dh in real life so hoping i can get quietly excited here!

Hello & congrats to all the new bfps!

Delilah snd Natalie I got my bfp pretty early too at 3wk 4days and I'm now 4wk 1 day. My first bfps were on Internet cheapies too and I had to hold them up to the light to see the line! Got fed up trying to judge whether it was actually a strong enough line so did a clearblue digi later the same day and it confirmed "pregnant". So in my book a line is a line!!!!

pinklady i think my boobs may out me too! My dh made me get changed before i went to see my mum today cos he thought she'd notice my boobage straight away!! I took another test today too?! I think its withdrawal from my poas addiction...seems strange to have a jam jar free morning wee Grin!!! I've got loads of cheapies left over and it was nice to see a darker line.

Today I'm feeling bloody knackered and think I am developing a super sense of smell if my trip to supermarket is anything to go by...Bleugh!

roofio I completely agree about the mumsnet guide, I've really enjoyed if so far too....it gives you something different than the day by day factual stuff you get on apps and other books.

toinfinity we share an EDD Smile

Anyone who's done this before when will the sore boobs end? It's not excruciating, but I am wearing a sports bra and they're pretty sore Sad

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 19:17

I really want a clear blue digital but dunno if I can warrant £8 on it the rip off merchants lol plus I'm scared ill do it and it will say not pregnant and thrn £8 deffo will be a waste. N e one obsessin over every little niggle and driving them selves mad? Oh and gettingobsessive I don't suffer from sore boobs yet so can't help u there unfortunately xxx I'm so excited for everyone :-) is there n e way I can upload a pic of my test to get your opinions?

MotherOfNations · 03/02/2013 19:17

Got my bfp on friday. Had done a test in the morning that was negative. Later that afternoon was just about to get changed into my exercise clothes to do the 30 day shred DVD when I decided to do another test and got a faint positive. Great excuse not to exercise.
This is number 5 for me and number 1 for Dp and will be my 5th cesarean so a wee bit nervous.
Due date is 12th October but will probably be booked in for c section around 28 September.

Hi, hope everyone has had a good weekend and nice to see lots of new people! In case people aren't reading back I'm due 1st October (complete guess!) with my first DC.

Have had a lovely day completely ruined by an email argument with my boss, who knows I am weary (understatement of the millennium!) but is giving me three more very stressful classes which will stop me being home before 9.00 every bloody day of the week. I am very very tearful tonight which is a mixture of hormones and rage. WHY DONT BLOODY MEN UNDERSTAND HOW FEIGGING TIRING THIS PREGNANT MALARKEY IS?!?!!?!

back to hide under my duvet

Umlauf · 03/02/2013 19:46

Yeah definitely! That's what mine looked like! Congratulations!

delilahbelle · 03/02/2013 19:47

Looks like a line to me :)

Elleroo · 03/02/2013 19:50

That's definitely a line Smile its darker than mine was!

I think the chances of a false positive are pretty slim so try not to worry, I'm sure if u do another one with fmu in a couple of days it'll be darker.

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 19:54

That line was from about 1.30pm yesterday xx

Elleroo · 03/02/2013 19:54

umlauf I've read back and notice you live in Spain... Do they not have the equivalent of some sort of pregnancy risk assessment?

Umlauf · 03/02/2013 20:07

Hi ellerroo yes we moved here in September. I'm in a really crappy position really in that I don't have a proper contract, the contract I do have expires in June so I won't get a shred of maternity pay, and I don't know what the general rules are for help when pregnant as I don't understand any of the official websites and can't ask anyone as only my boss knows. He is very much of the opinion of 'you're pregnant, not ill.' In any case, I don't know if the risk assessment would cover working long hours?

roofio87 · 03/02/2013 20:15

natalieand agreed, thats what my first one looked like too, i was only 10dpo. now (at 4w+6) i did a cheap strip one middle of this afternoon and +line came up so dark and so fast, way before the contol line even so it will get darker in time (if like me u need to keep poas get some dead cheap ones to curb your obsession!!) and Congratulations!!! Grin

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 20:18

I have 20 dead cheap ones already but they r coming up even fainter than first response ATM haha. I really want a clear blue digital eith conception indicator but I keep thinking hmm if I spent £8 on one it might say not pregnant cos the lines r faint in first response still xxx

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 20:18

Oh and meant to ask what does poas mean Hun? Xxx

roofio87 · 03/02/2013 20:21

the cheapies won't be a sensitive as the first response so if its very early days there won't be as much hcg to pick up for the cheap ones will be very faint. keep re testing and see if the line goes darker, i'm sure it will!!
poas=pee on a stick ie take a pg test!! Wink

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 20:25

I'm certainly obsessed with testing that's for sure but mainly cos I want the line to be darker 24 hours seems to be taking forever to pass ATM I'm getting impatient already lol xx

roofio87 · 03/02/2013 20:42

I know, the impatience is very hard, just try to take your mind of it (easier said than done!!)
I'm feeling a bit miffed, we told both sets of parents about the pg last week as both me and dp are very close to them. Now my MIL has told his nan and auntie and Uncle and wants us to tell his other grandparents asap. My dp is fine with this, but I feel like my pregnancy is being a bit hijacked and I'm not beign allowed to do it my way. I wanted to wait till much much later in the pg to tell the wider family (not to mention all the people are my MILs work than know too!!). I want to just relax and think, well whats done is done and I'm not one for confrontation, but I'm a bit upset. Would normally talk to my dp about anything but afriad of criticising his mother (I wouldn't take that well!!) what do you ladies think I should do?!

Elleroo · 03/02/2013 20:44

Natalie make sure you use your first morning urine...this will giv u the strongest line.

umlauf I'm not sure, I think mine does but as I'm not planning on telling them yet, I can't be sure. I guess it would vary between employers. It's s difficult situation for u to be in though. Hope it gets better x

Elleroo · 03/02/2013 20:51

roof did u ask them not to say anything? If so they've been completely out of order, but do u think it would help to bring it up now its done? The cat seems very much out of the bag...

roofio87 · 03/02/2013 20:57

yeah we did tell them to be quiet,she said she got asked when we were thinking about having children and her reaction gave it away. yeah I suppose you're right,not much van be done not so will try not to be annoyed!! everyone is going to know soon by the looks of things!!x

Natalieand · 03/02/2013 21:01

Hate it when ppl just take it upon themselves to share your special news ATM only me hubby my mum and s close friend no about my pregnancy. This is gunna sound like the most random question ever I always wake at 4am for a wee so do I test then or test when I get up at 7? This has always baffled me haha xx
