I am still sticking to the 12th though Wink - hot teacakes in the kitchen - help yourselves girls xxxxx

Squiffie · 01/10/2013 11:03

I'm off to the seaside today Grin

Squiffie · 01/10/2013 11:04

Welcome Bohemond how exciting for you!

FacebookStoleMyLife · 01/10/2013 11:09

Ooh PFJ that is fascinating, just done it and mine stuck on the 12th but so interesting to see the factors they use and how it might affect things. My age added 23 days to the baseline, BMI added 4, not being first pregnancy took away 3.

AliOh · 01/10/2013 11:13

Welcome Bohemond and congrats :)

Bohemond · 01/10/2013 11:15

Thank you PFJ, Squiffie and Ali.
Have just done the pregnology thingy and I am 5+6 - not sure what kind of seed that is Grin

AliOh · 01/10/2013 11:16

PFJ never spotted that on the pregnology site. According to NHS my EDD is 12th but that pushes it back to 14th.

FacebookStoleMyLife · 01/10/2013 11:18

Don't forget your bucket and spade Squiffie! Are you going to have fish and chips for lunch?
Hot teacakes PFJ? Don't mind if I do.

And welcome from me too bohemond, cleaning the cupboards? Yikes, I could definitely do with a symptom like that

ThePFJ · 01/10/2013 11:26

AliOh That doesn't surprise me.. DC1 is usually late... My DS was due on 1st April... I know April Fools Day right... I was fooled.. he didn't pop out until the 7th o.O... I was desperate for it to happen....

Off to the dentist now for a crown... I have been putting this off since July... but now I am pregnant, I better get it over and donw with huh? If I can't do the dentist there is no way in hell I can do labour Grin

Ooh pregnology has put my due date at 20th May instead of 22nd. Admittedly my dd2 was over 3 weeks early and decided to break my waters whilst i was at work! So I may as well just expect baby early.

AliOh · 01/10/2013 11:43

ooooh facebook really want fish and chips now yum!

ThePFJ am expecting baby to arrive late. My sister asked what my due date was so she could book time off around it to come and see me. I told her not to come until the end of May otherwise I know she'll be here for a week and baby wont come until after shes gone :) good luck with the dentist - do you have to provide some sort of proof to get free treatment anyone?

wm3010 · 01/10/2013 11:50

AliOh - I got a certificate of exemption through the post, think it is for dentist and prescriptions although as I am in Scotland prescriptions are free anyway.

ThePFJ · 01/10/2013 12:57

Dentist is all done.... that went quicker than I thought....

At my MW booking in I was given a tonne of paperwork including a form signed by my MW for free prescriptions and dental care. All I have to do is fill in my name and address and post it off.

impatientlywaiting · 01/10/2013 13:41

Bohemond you currently have an Appleseed. Tomorrow it's a sweet pea.

moominleigh94 · 01/10/2013 13:53

Booking in in just over an hour Grin

I'm excited but nervous!

Squiffie · 01/10/2013 14:23

Had fish and chips and think we might even get candy floss even though I feel sick

Brought my grandad with us who's sadly losing his marbles so its like having 3 kids already my nan was supposed to come too but got the tit on because she's a selfish and impatient bitch who overreacts and screams and shouts at every little thing

dobedobedo · 01/10/2013 14:35

ARGH.

So tomorrow I have to work in a different office which means that I have to get the bus there. A double decker bus for one hour. It is the most bumpy journey ever and I get travel sick at the best of times. I've said to my boss (who knows I'm pregnant) that I'll be sick and can anyone drive me there (I've just passed my test and as I haven't got my licence yet, I can't go on company insurance so can't drive there).

No one can drive me, I have to get the bus which I WILL be sick on. Do I have to go? Aren't they supposed to not make things worse, or am I wishful thinking?

BoogiesBunny · 01/10/2013 15:10

Can you get a taxi? I would have thought your work could/should pay for that.

ThePFJ · 01/10/2013 15:19

I just gave in and watched an episode of One Born Every Minute on 4od and got teary eyed... turns out I am a softie after all.... DAMN IT. Confused

NannyPlumForPM · 01/10/2013 15:33

According to pregnology, I am due on May1st!

Thought I was about to have to leave the Maybies thread but just sticking in there.... phew.

Would you oust me if it turned out I was an end of April- y :(

NannyPlumForPM · 01/10/2013 15:36

And you do have to provide proof AlliOh - prescriptions are different cause you don't have to show them a card you can just tick a box but my denist wants to see the form/card that says your are entitled to free dental treatment.

Other than that they accept a MatB1 (given at 26 weeks so useless information at the mo)

I don't think they see the pregnancy as 'valid' until a few more weeks officially. Which is crap beacuse if they had to deal with sickness then they would of course know it is valid

mumof2aimingfor4 · 01/10/2013 15:43

Nah I think we'll keep you nanny even if you do turn out an april-y ;)

Currently stuffing my face with a fried egg sandwich. I cant stop eating, its the only thing that stops me feeling sick, and even then it doesn't last long!

thistlelicker · 01/10/2013 16:32

I don't feel very well at all!!!! :-((

moominleigh94 · 01/10/2013 16:33

I got a green and blue folder, and midwife is coming to the house to do the full booking in next Monday Grin I'll be 10+6 then... and then got to wait for the 12 week scan Sad why is everything taking so long Hmm

mumof2aimingfor4 · 01/10/2013 16:43

Im feeling your impatience moomin ive just brought my private scan forward by a week. So I now have it this Saturday at 11am. Going to see OH's family for the weekend so will be nice to take a pic of bubs with us.
