Thinking of you Delilah and sending unmumsnetty hugs x

I'm on the phone too do could someone please add me

Tarlia, 30, EDD October 6th, 1DS (2)

It's lovely to see how many will have a similar age gap to us, DS will be 2.8 when this little one arrives. I do not recognise any names from Feb 2011 though, wave you hand if you were on there too please :)

Hope everyone has a peaceful night, my record is 3 bathroom runs thus far, funny since it wasn't this bad last time at 8 months preg!

tuckingfits · 05/02/2013 23:30

Thank you elleroo!

GTbaby · 05/02/2013 23:43

Hello everyone.

I did my test today. Bit of a surprise.

My stats are
GTbaby 30, edd 5/10. Ds1 is 4 months Shock

Yes you read that correctly. My little one is only 4 months old (well nxt week) he was born 16/10 and nxt one is due 5/10. So less then a year gap.

So everything is quite fresh in my head. Surprisingly no symptoms! As yet anyway. Last time by this point I had very sore boobs. Very bad cramps.

Having such a tiny gap will be challenging. Not looking forward to morning sickness , it was awful last time. Couldn't look after myself let alone a child.

Night night for today x

terrifiednewbie · 06/02/2013 00:21

thanks Natalie
gt baby-congrats! i can imagine that came as a surprise-you'll be a complete pro though Wink

cherrycherry41 · 06/02/2013 00:37

i got my bfp on 31st jan! Grin i believe im 5 weeks 2 days so that makes EDD 6th oct!
i already have a DD who is 4 mo so there will be a 12 month gap too eek!

PenelopeLane · 06/02/2013 06:01

Oooh you lot have been chatty! Have been away three days and playing catch up. The nausea kicked in with a vengeance yesterday and am wondering if this time will be worse as last pregnancy I didn't vomit once although felt hungover and seedy. And here are my stats:

GTbaby · 06/02/2013 06:31

Thanks terrified.
Helly Cherry , I'm not the only one with a tiny gap!

Feeling a lil yuk. Tummy is doing flip flops. But don't know if its nausea kicking in or just the reality of having another baby giving me this uneasy feeling.

Bk to sleep for me.

Natalieand · 06/02/2013 07:00

4 weeks today, seriously how slow does time go? Lol. Feel rough this morn thing I have a cold coming on as had the sniffles. Boohoo! I can't believe I'm so young compared to everyone else xxx

pinkbuttons · 06/02/2013 07:22

Thinking of you delilah and hope to see you posting again next week.
Tarlia I was on the Jan 2011 thread with my 2.9 age gap.
Hello to GTbaby and cherry Congratulations to you both, I have friends who have two children about a year apart and although it was hard they both love the fact their little ones are so close together and able to play so well.

Haylebop12 · 06/02/2013 07:47

Hi ladies, can I join? Got my BFP yesterday but waited to confirm it with cb digi today. So pleased. Sorry I've not read whole thread there's a lot to read!

legallyblond · 06/02/2013 08:20

Morning all - on phone, so please can someone add me to the list?

Legallyblond, 31, EDD 1st Oct, 1 DD (2.4)

Feeling a bit stressed today. Not sure how the finances of all this will work... DH found out this morning he has lost his job and I only get stat mat pay. Hence we had planned for a far bigger gap!!! Arrrgh!!

Breathe...

Penelope - I am identical to you.... Only felt queasy with DD but have full on vomited a lot already! A boy maybe?!?!

Umlauf · 06/02/2013 08:39

Hi legallyblonde sorry can't amend any stats as not on computer but just wanted to sympathise re finances! We will be similar as my contract expires June and no other school will employ me in September if I'm going off in October! So will be unemployed for a while with the baby and not entitles to any state help here. We're lucky to rent so will be moving to a less desirable location. And smaller flat but in the end the baby doesn't need luxuries, imkeepreminding myself it won't be expensive until it starts school and needs to go on trips!

Although just looked into getting baby a passport - did you know they can't be on their parents passports any more? S it takes 8 weeks to get the passport done and if baby is born in October we might not have its passport in time to go home to UK for Xmas! Unless I take a newborn baby on a 12 hour round trip to Madrid to get a passport in person!

Bloody ages til my scan :-( 23rd march I think, by which time will be nearly 13 weeks. One of my students found out the sex of her baby at the 12 week scan (he's obviously a well endowed little fella!) so am getting my hopes up a little!

Best friend and husband coming to visit for the weekend so not sure whether to tell them! Or whether they will guess when I don't have any birthday champers....

legallyblond · 06/02/2013 08:41

Btw, pinkbuttons, surely 1 Oct is 10 months after new year....?! I remember from last time when it fawned on me that 40 weeks (42 in my case) is a lot longer than 9 months.

I actually know when this one was conceived as it was a one off thing!!! We suspected after it happened..... Anyway, I conceived on 8th Jan!

legallyblond · 06/02/2013 08:43

Duh... I am rubbish with time... Thinking about it, 1 Oct is 9 months after 1 Jan. God!!!!

Sal1977 · 06/02/2013 09:23

Hi hi!
Very nervous newbie here! Got my BFP on Monday after TTC for 6 months. A few hours after getting it I got blood results from the GP to say my ovarian reserve is low, so keeping everything crossed that this 'bean on a string' (as DP puts it) will sticky stick stick!!
So far not many symptoms other than low down cramping (similar but not quite the same as AF), which is convincing me that AF is on her way (soo blinking nervous grrrr) and big tender bazookas!

Would someone mind adding me to the list?

Sal1977 - 35 - due 12th October - bubble #1

Thankyouplease. Xx

roxvox · 06/02/2013 09:40

Morning ladies. I am looking for a bit of comfort... Basically I was getting some quite bad stomach cramps before, but haven't really had any for the past couple of days. I have Googled it and am pretty sure I have nothing to worry about, but I am a born worrier and so it's all I am thinking about!

Also, my first midwife appt is booked for when I am 7+1, do you think there's any benefit in me asking them to push it out to the next week so I will be 8wks along? What do they do in this first appointment?

I hope you're all doing well! xx

Iheartcrunchiebars · 06/02/2013 09:49

Morning roxvox I am the same. I had loads of crampy type pains last week until Sunday and nothing since but I think that it's nothing to worry about. I'm just assuming its little growth spurts etc.

Umlauf · 06/02/2013 09:50

Have you noticed anything else alongside the cramps roxvox? If not they are probably bedding in pains. Are you normally sensitive to down there pains, eg ovulation and period pains? I've had funny twinges and told the midwives and they reacted positively, so its normal to feel things down there.
