December 2014, anyone else yet?

[ImBrian]

So I got a stupidly early faint positive today at 9dpo when I should definitely know better after a chemical last month. According to the Calendar I'm due December 1st so I've decided to be massively optimistic and start this thread. Is there anybody put there?

Thank you girls- paranoid, boba, punkyand minion!
I slept well but feel really dehydrated for some strange reason so trying to drink lots.

Glad you are all well. Enjoy the sunny Sunday x

You should have a midwife appointment at 8 weeks to book you in, Betty. Sounds like your doctors is a bit crap! Can you complain? Look on website for midwife's details? X

With my first I had my booking appointment at the same time as my 12 week scan. Maybe it depends on the area?

My booking appt is the 1st May and il be 9 w +3. So I'm hoping to be booked in for scan soon as hopefully before the 23rd!

Your going to have to take me off the list I'm afraid. Mine was an ectopic, went to theatre Friday and have got home today.

I will keep popping on to see how your all getting on though.
Good luck ladies xxx

Hi ladies! I've sort of been keeping up with the thread, but I've had a stressful and rubbish few days so been absent. Last week I got some brown bleeding for a couple of days which increased on Thursday. I was at work and freaked out, I then threw up repeatedly panicking. Fortunately my DH works same place and our manager let us leave to go to EPU.
Not the way I wanted ppl to find out and not that early as I was only 6 weeks.
Had a scan and heart beat there, can see there's bleeding, but its outside the sac... Oh and look over here, there's ANOTHER heart beat! TWINS.
I laughed hysterically whilst crying with relief at heart beats. However, they were slow, so I've got another appointment on Thursday to go back to see if things have improved. Apparently it can be normal as my dates were 6+3 and they're measuring around the same at 5+6 gestation. But I'm still scared.
That evening I came down with a cold and have been poorly for past few days and yesterday what I can only assume is morning sickness has kicked in. I was sick twice and have been sick today as well. I'm not at work, still generally under the weather and still getting brown bleeding.

shanels I feel for you it's worrying. Get a scan to see f they can identify the bleeding.

betty my appointments came through as 2 separate letters, maybe 1 is behind the other in the post?

lianasdav so sorry to hear that, I hope you are being taken care of and have the right support to talk to when you are ready. X

Lianasdev - . I'm so sorry. You must be shattered. Take care xx

Rockstars - oh my goodness - no wonder you are feeling horrendous. Do twins run in the family?

Shanels - I hope you can get a scan soon and your mind put at rest.

I'm having the luxury of an afternoon nap. I'm not even 5 weeks yet!

oohdaddypig my mums sister had fraternal boy and girl and her daughter identical boys. I don't yet know if its due to 1 egg or 2. Only the release of 2 eggs at once can run in the female line, apparently identical due to egg splitting can happen to anyone. I didn't even contemplate it being twins, apparently my dh and mum had thought about it. I still haven't gotten used to the idea and it makes me even more worried about the pregnancy.

Hi all, Im just checking in. Sorry to hear your news lianasdav.

rockstars wow, twins. remember what will be will be, worrying will make no difference whatsoever. I wish you the best of luck, i hope all goes very smoothly.

I haven't been on for a few days, i was panicking with things I read online and the stress was coming out in real life. So i haven't been on since wednesday and I am now feeling a lot more serene. I forced myself to do no more ic, i did one this morning, and the last one wednesday. I think im not going to do another for a week, if at all. All good, my little bean must still be in there. Have also decided to just wait on my 12 week scan, i look forward to seeing a little squirming bean then. I am definitely resolved to what will be will be, and am beginning to enjoy this pregnancy business more.

Over and out for now at 5 wks +5

Hi, can I join please

Got my bfp at 10dpo on Thursday which makes me about 3+6. Still can't get my head around it, this is our first baby and first month that we tried too. Edd from my last period would be 22.12.14.

Was a bit worried as I had no symptoms but think I might have spoken too soon as have a very watery mouth today and boobs starting to hurt a bit.

Doctors surgery have booked me in with the midwife in three weeks time for booking appointment, will she test again or should I see the to in the meantime to have it confirmed?

Thanks

Liana so sorry to hear about it being eptopic, look after yourself.

Rockstar...twins! How bloody exciting is that
Was reading somewhere the other day that bleeding when there's more then one is dead common. Fingers crossed it all goes fine at next scan.

Hi cooperbug welcome!!
And I totally know that feeling, my fiancé and I literally talked about it and decided to try and suddenly I caught! Very shocked, thought it would take us at least 12 months to catch, how wrong were we, and we are getting married in July, awesome timing hey!! But believe me it still hasn't sunk in and I'm 5+1 today and found out last Saturday.
I'm booked in with the midwife on 25th April and my due date I think is 13th December, from what I can figure out anyway :-) good luck and welcome again!!

Girls can I ask some q's?
I've got absolutely nothing to go on here, I'm not cramping or bleeding etc but I'm terrified of mc'ing. It's story after story of heartbreaking tales on here and every time I try and be happy about being pg I just can't stop myself from jumping to the worst possible outcome.
I know I'm dead early (4+4) and the majority of symptoms starts at 6 weeks but I just can't seem to shake the clouds away.
Has anyone else been like this?
I'll have to mention it to gp on Tuesday I think as I can't go on for the next 8 weeks being a nervous nelly.

lianasdav so sorry about your news xxx

Oh god, how'd I miss that off my msg, lianasdav sorry that you're going through this! I'm thinking of you x

Miss jasper congratulations! We just got married in November so still settling into married life and now a baby on the way!

Minion I think it is normal to feel a bit anxious, I feel a bit like that too as i am aware it is still very early and trying hard not to get too excited and carried away. At the same time though I want to enjoy it without worrying.

Can you maybe get a reassurance scan in a couple of weeks? I am not sure if you would have to pay though.

Lianssav, so sorry to hear that, get as much rest and support as you can

minion for your own sanity you have to stop reading the tales of doom. It will be the longest few months of your life worrying all the time about something you can't control. Do something that will make you happy and excited, like mentally planning your nursey or pretend baby clothes shopping online. Decide what buggy you might like. And if you have spare cash get a viability scan.

cooper and rock I know you're both right. I'm normally a level headed grown up but I think that cause it took nearly 15 months to even get a sniff of a second line something I'd saying 'hey minion, you didn't think it would be that easy did ya?'.
Very cruel.
Oh dear, may already be getting ahead of myself, already pinned loads of nursery ideas and yesterday was spent wandering around the Trafford centre shopping for the baby already.
Ha!
I am so excited, in my heart, but my head is just fighting fighting fighting.
It doesn't help that I have no bloody appetite so can't even comfort eat... Someone told me I'd be ravenous in pregnancy, bloody liars, was looking forward to stuffing my face with cakes!

Tell me it'll come back....

minion can't say I can offer you advice on the food front. I'm currently puking my dinner into a bowl. I live for food, so going off it is sickening.

rockstars "going off food is sickening" - you had me ROLF . Congrats on the twins.

Lianasdav I am so sorry - hope you are getting some rest. Take care of yourself, you are very important.

I bought DH 'pregnancy for men' off amazon after someone here recommended it (soz, cant remember who now). He reliably informed me this afternoon that the reason I cannot face eating might be an evolutionary trait - the body's way of making sure that nothing ingested is bad for the sultana (he also informed me the size of the baby was a sultana!). Interesting I thought - not particularly helpful but interesting indeed.

Evening ladies! I confess - I've been lurking on here for a few days because I haven't quite got my head around this whole 'baby in 7 months' thing, but felt I should step up and own this lovely little chick pea that's making me feel queasy pretty much 24/7.

It still doesn't seem real - this is our first (wanted but quicker than we anticipated) pregnancy so DH and I are completely new to this. We talk about what's going on but to be honest it seems like we're talking about someone else's experience, rather than ours. I'm sure once we have our scan (waiting for the date) it will hit us emotionally (if not before) but for now I just feel... I don't know... slightly shell shocked I suppose? I'm hoping that this isn't just me and I'm not a terrible mother to be!

Evolutionary trait my arse... Not being able to eat without wanting to puke and yet having to eat otherwise you will puke coupled with tiredness so severe that I suffered through soft play hell this morning for two hours hoping to tire my 3 year old out enough to be able to sleep this afternoon would be a useless situation if I lived in a cave and needed to hunt and gather my own food and stop the existing chidren being eaten by lions.

hey pals,glad to know am not alone.just tested positive due Dec 15
