November 2014 - anybody yet?

[Squeakybeaky]

Hi all, I have my BFP and due 30th October. It's my third baby and was 2 weeks late with the last two so bound to be November.

Anybody else for November yet? I know it's very very early :)

I had a dream last night that I was sent for an early 5 week scan and they found mu uterus had split in two with one side carrying 3 sets of identical twins and the other side carrying 2 sets of identical triplets. Whilst I wouldn't mind multiples I'm not quite prepared for 12 babies!!!!!!

Hahaha, 12 babies Random - brilliant!

Re cars, we've just downsized (last month) to a Fiesta after upsizing to a Focus 3 years ago, thinking we'd need more room if we had another child. Obviously this is why I am now pregnant!

Thanks for the welcome and for starting the stats list, Nessalina. According to my conception (not LMP date, which is a bit useless in the circs), I would be due 2 Nov, and as DD was pretty much bang on time I'm going for that. Planning to book a reassurance scan for 8+ weeks though, as I did last time, after my mc, and it really helped me. Anyone else going to?

IME Scorpios can be a handful but fiercely intelligent, loyal and often very creative and talented (brother, grandfather, SIL, cousin). So there you go!

Ooh do you know, I'd love twins! I know they'd be a handful, but my two best friends are both identical twins (not each other's!) and they both have such lovely close relationships with their sisters. One of them is currently pregnant with twins herself! I think it's pretty unlikely as there's no history in our family, but I can hope
Wow Devon - definitely join our thread, sounds like you're a useful lady to have about!!
Welcome Caro! Bonfire baby!
Yes, I'm hoping to have a reassurance scan books, and also thinking of doing the harmony test this time? As it was the scan where we found out ours had gone wrong the decision to do an invasive test was quite hard (we had CVS), so the thought of being given a clearer result is very reassuring...
Luckily, I'm meeting my consultant on Tuesday for a 'post natal' talk, so I'll be able to ask if can get a free reassurance scan - I'm pretty sure they do them on the NHS when you've had MC before, but our situation is a little weird.
Sorry for war & peace

Twins would be great

Got an appointment at the docs, 3.50 today eekk

Hi Everyone! It still feels very early, but I'd love to join you all here. I'm due 7th November, it was a Valentine's conception!

Nessalina, thank you for starting the stats list. I had a very similar experience to you 4 years ago with a chromosomal abnormality that was not survivable. We took the same decision as you at 15 weeks (delays from the scan and CVS pushed it that far along, sadly) It knocked me out for several months, but I am very very happy and feel so lucky that we went on to have our rainbow baby the following year. DS is now three and I can tell you that the pregnancy, birth and of course, DS, were/are all perfect! So, I totally understand wanting a reassurance scan and think I will try to get one myself this time too. I did with DS. FYI there's also a thread on here to give support to women who are pregnant or TTC after a termination for abnormalities.

Anyway, it's lovely to be here. Still feels unreal.

Well looks like I spoke too soon. Obviously not my time to have a baby. Good luck to you all.

I'm so sorry to hear that Caro. I got a BFP last month for about 3 days before AF arrived. I read that you can be extra fertile the month following when this happens. Good luck for next month.

Oh god Caro that's rubbish
So sorry.

Hi Little! Welcome to the thread!
Sounds like our situations were spookily similar, I have posted from time to time in that thread but it's a very quiet one (luckily!). Glad to hear things worked out ok for you!

I'm freaking myself out ladies, I've had light pink discharge since Monday, got BFP on Tues, and did again today (stronger line) but the discharge is still going! It's so light that I don't think it's a worry, it's more like my regular foof stuff has just changed colour, but I could do without it!! Anyone else getting this?

In other news, feeling very crampy, but think I may just be a bit bungee up

im sorry caro

I went to the doctors today, referred to the midwives. I've also got to stay on my vitamin d and calcium tablets. They're awful but I kno I need them.

Im crampy but in a different way to normal and very tired. Im hoping the workers resurfacing the road outside are quieter tonight

Updated roll call below
Moved my due date back two days as I know I OVed very early, cd12, so 8th Nov is probably more likely.
Soooo hungry today

Ooh our group is getting bigger! Yay!

I'm at the GP today at 3.50pm so get an early dart from work woop!

Feeling pretty nervous, before my MC last October my trip the the GP pretty much confirmed I was about to MC (I'd been having lots of blood tests and scans after I'd had some sharp pains and tenderness at 5-6wks, scans kept showing a tiny empty sac and my HCG barely increased on each blood test, ended up with surgical management :( ) however hoping today will go much better! :D

Good luck! Early finish on a Friday is always a good thing!
I've got to go to an all day training course today and these things tend to run over, so I'm extra jealous

I'm cautiously edging into this thread :)

I know when I ovd so due around the 7th November if this one decides to stick. Wracked with nerves already. This is my second and I was so oblivious to everything the first time around.

congrats to you all :)

Really sorry it's not good news Caro :(

Caro, so sorry .

It's such a rollercoaster, these first few weeks - one of the things that put me off properly 'trying'. Am knicker-checking a dozen times a day, and it sounds as if lots on this thread already have had difficult experiences. It's really hard to shake the fear, isn't it?

Hope this isn't too depressing! On a more cheerful note, I visited my amazing acupuncturist last night, who is the person I credit with getting me pregnant after mc last time, and keeping me sane throughout. Got pg on my own (with DH's help ) this time, but knew immediately that whatever the outcome, having her involved right from the beginning would be crucial to my sanity!

Good luck for your appt today, MammySam. I saw what you said upthread about having a good feeling. I feel the same, and although I don't want to jinx this, I know with my first pg I always felt very anxious, and it was quite different the second time round.

And Ness, it's so nerve-racking, but if the line is stronger and the discharge hasn't changed it does sound as if all is probably good.

Here's to sticky ones for us all !

Me again! I'm quite chilly at the moment - anyone else? Don't remember this from last time. I am a hot-weather person, though, so looking forward to wafting around in summer dresses. DD was early April baby, so spent most of last pg swathed in layers of wool and coats - will be happy not to have to add to my bulk this time around!

Im certainly more nervous than last time. I've just made my referal to the midwives. Very scared lol im not quite sure what to do, i really dont want to tell work till after scan, BUT my employers are linked to the childrens centre which hold the booking appointments. Im going to ask really nicely if there is any chance of having my booking somewhere else.

Have full on nausea at the min, and so tired but i keep telling myself its a good sign.

books I cant get warm either, DP's got doors open as apparently its too hot!!

books I am absolutely freezing lately and have had more heaters and fires on this last week than in the last 4 months! I've even taken to blasting myself with the hairdryer to warm up! I thought these hormones were supposed to keep us warm!!! DD was a May baby so I was pg all through winter too which made dressing easy - jeans & long tight belted jumpers. Looking at the summer maternity stuff it's really depressing! it's all floral tents or frumpy stuff I'll be sweltering in. Bought myself some cheapy Primani bigger jeans today which should see me through a while and a couple of loose floaty tops but none of the summer stuff seems to show shape, it's all loose and swingy or floaty - big risk of just looking fat instead of pregnant in that stuff!

Morning sickness, tiredness and killer boobs are settling in nicely now. In fact heading for a nap now!

Random are you like me and never feel 'nice' when pregnant? DS was a summer baby (due end aug - born jul) and dressing was a nightmare. Everything made me swell up. Im hoping I wont be too big over the summer and if I am ill be at home not at work anyway. The advantage of working in a school lol

I have nausea too WinterLover. Little surprised to feel it this early. I'm still really getting my head around today's BFP! I sort of knew and yet...I didn't think that I'd get lucky so early, this is only cycle 3 or 4 depending on how seriously I'm counting.

Anyway, early days, have to remind myself to be cautious, not get too ahead of self.

I'm chilly too books but it's howling hailstorm weather where I am!

Nessalina here's hoping the discharge calms down and that the nausea increases...sounds fucked up to be wishing nausea upon you though?!

A couple of weeks ago I ordered some ASOS maternity jeans just cause they were such good value (reduced in sale). I promised myself I'd send them back if I got a negative this month though!

Lol i think your allowed to do thinhs like that in aid of a bargin. I bought a carry cot of our pushchair a couple of months ago.. it was listed at £1 yes £1 so figured if i didnt end up using it I could sell it on with the pushchair.

Been talking about cars today, im dreading changing/buying a new one. money is tight as it is grrr

LOL! Well I won't tell if you won't tell that I bought my Bugaboo Cameleon last week because it was such a good bargain, and a doppler. And a bump belt for the car. And booties. And made an Amazon wishlist with a breast pump, muslins & car mirror on it... And got DD an "I'm going to be a big sister" t-shirt for when I tell her in another month's time!! And I may have taken a photo today I am trying to post but can't for some reason!!

LOL i took a photo too!!!!
