We have s big question mark over our living arrangement as well Natslie. We bought a 2 bed flat last year but the 2nd bedroom is actually my treatment room (I'm a beauty therapist) so I really don't know what we're gonna do yet. We may have to sell it and try and get something bigger, just a bummer that our incomes haven't got bigger since the summer!!!

pinkbuttons · 20/02/2013 08:41

relieved and embarrased this morning about my paranoia worrying. sickness is back although not as bad as before so maybe it is just getting better.
were also going to have to move in summer were in 2 bed at the moment, will also be moving as DH has just been offered a promotion which is very exciting and has massively relieved his money fears. He phoned me last night from his business trip to tell me he had the most vivid dream it was a girl. Grin Its the first time hes bought up the bean in conversation and am very relieved hes now showing his excitement. clearly just needed a few weeks for it to sink in.

waves to everyone due around the same time as me Smile how are you today obsessive sickness back?

sorry to hear spotting is worrying you natalie when did you say yor next scan is? will you get more scans now that your having twins?

Natalieand · 20/02/2013 08:58

pink buttons my next scan is Monday. I am not spotting myself but it worries me that everyone else seems to be. I've got my midwife booking appt today with the same midwife who cared for me throughout with dd1. Not sure what will happen with scans. Mondays is to confirm a twin pregnancy and try to detect heartbeats as I was too early for heartbeats the other day. She did say that sometimes twin two doesn't develop and that if that happens I will more than likely bleed so I'm on constant knicker watch lol. Both sacs have yolk sacs inside atm.But I'm not in pain and haven't had any bleeding so have to be optimistic. I'm still trying to get my head round it tbh lol. I really want a private scan today cos I'm so worried but hubby says its a waste of money and is putting his foot down :-( men eh!

walnut300 · 20/02/2013 09:00

natalieand I'm also 6 weeks today!! I have a scan in a few weeks, I dont live in the uk anymore so going private! Smile haha peeing... I was up a record 7 times in the night!! my dp was concerned I had an upset stomach!!!

walnut300 · 20/02/2013 09:02

natalieand try not to worry I am sure everything is fine in there.

HotSoupDumpling · 20/02/2013 09:23

O. M. G. - twins! Congratulations Natalie and good luck with your scan (I know I'm a few days behind everyone else!).

We're also in a 2-bed flat but we're going to stay put for as long as possible. I'm just going to have be merciless in chucking a load of stuff out to make room!

GettingObsessive · 20/02/2013 09:24

how are you today obsessive sickness back?

pinkbuttons funny you should ask, yes it's back with a vengeance Grin

We have a cafe at work so I am currently wolfing down a sausage sandwich like my life depends on it. Have you got pain in your hip joints? It's like what I would get with period pains, a sort of dull ache.

StrawberryGateaux · 20/02/2013 10:24

Congratulations to all of you, how exciting Natalie, twinsSmile

Unfortunetly i am miscarrying, well atleast i think i am, bleeding quite badly now, and had a clotSad
I ended up telling my mum & best friend about my pregnancy as i needed their help emotionally.
My friend phoned up the early pregnancy unit for me, i was told it was probably implantation bleeding and to do another poas next tues and if still positive to come in for a scan, if not then i have miscarriedSad
The bleeding got worse after the phonecall, it's much worse than spotting and my pregnancy symptoms have gone.
Really sad right now & i have been recieving a lot of support from the miscarriage forum on here as quite frankly my docs surgery is useless.

I wish all you lucky mummies well and hope to hear of all your gorgeous babies in October, congratulations and enjoy every minute of your new journeys ahead of youThanksThanksThanks

thethreeblondies · 20/02/2013 10:31

So sorry strawberry same happenned to me in nov, (and June but that's another story!) I had a lot of support from the ladies over on the other threads, hope to see back over this side soon xxx

roxvox · 20/02/2013 10:48

So sorry strawberry. I hope everything works out for you on Tuesday. Will be thinking of you.

walnut300 · 20/02/2013 10:52

Sorry to hear that strawberry.. thinking of you. I also miscarried in January and got pregnant again straight away (6 wks today) so I hope the same happens to you. We're all here to show our support.

Umlauf · 20/02/2013 11:00

So sorry strawberry thinking of you. Such a shame that your GP aren't giving you much support. If the bleeding has got heavier it might be worth ringing the EPU again as the situations changed? Lovely to hear you are being supported on here and by your lovely friend and Mumthough.

pinkmoonlight · 20/02/2013 11:51

So sorry strawberry Thanks thinking of you x

MrsAFlowerpot · 20/02/2013 12:00

Sending love strawberry

JellyCurls · 20/02/2013 12:05

Sending you love and support strawberry I would call EPU and explain situation again. Glad you got RL support too x

TheFalconsmistress · 20/02/2013 12:15

please ring your epu especially if the bleeding is heavy if you soak through more than 1 pad an hour the might want to admit you strawberry I am sending you lots of hugs take care of yourself xxxx

So sorry strawberry..

notsoold · 20/02/2013 12:35

Natalie congratulations on twins....
I also pee galore and I thought it was because I am an old chicken and my lady bits are oldie oldie....
Our size is a good size but terrible catchment area for schools!!!
I still do not have any other symptoms but peeing and tender breasts...
I was so stressed about losing this lo I tested again....still bfp!!!
And still not told dh or anybody but my mum( who guessed anyway). I am trying to wait for the 12 scan ...very hard!!

Good afternoon all....

cherrycherry41 · 20/02/2013 13:15

FeministInTraining · 20/02/2013 13:17

Hi ladies, I have been stalking watching with interest for about 2 weeks now, am so scared of jinxing anything! So sorry to hear your news strawberry, I am in exactly the same position as walnut which is what prompted me to come out of the shadows! Miscarried on 9th Jan at 8 weeks and got a BFP 2 weeks ago without AF in between. 6 weeks today Wink. Have read loads of stories from people who went on to have successful pregnancies straight away so FX for all of us. Don't think I will relax until I have baby in arms but am feeling more sick this time so quietly optimistic. FX for natalie hope you see 2 heartbeats on Monday.

34PinkLadyApple · 20/02/2013 13:22

So sorry strawberry, FX for you and the bean x

walnut300 · 20/02/2013 13:25

hi feminist. yes it was quite a shock, I had my implant out in October, got pregnant in November but miscarried in January with blighted ovum at 7weeks and got pregnant straight away with no AF. I am also nervous but feel much more pregnant this time... I have an early scan 2nd March. wishing us both luck with this one and congratulations. Smile
