New thread ladies. I should really leave it to someone who can link the old one. Can someone add the edd list and whatnot? Or maybe we should start again now edds are changing after scan.

Sparkle - good luck and hoping Thursday comes quickly for you. So many people spotting and bleeding, on the positive side it does show how common it is despite it being a big worry of course.

I'm almost 13 weeks and also keep thinking I feel tiny movements - I felt them pretty early in first pregnancy so I suppose it is possible....

ohthegoats · 25/03/2014 20:38

I wouldn't be able to feel things like 'tiny flutters' behind all these digestion related stomach cramps!

mum2kiss · 25/03/2014 20:48

claire I am positive I felt movement last night. I had both hands on my tum and felt 3 very distinct movements....I told dp and he laughed...said I was bonkers...but i know what I felt!

TroubleAndFyfe · 25/03/2014 20:50

FX for you sparkle!
I've felt a few little flutters over the last week but wondered if it's too early.
I'd be up for the Facebook group too.
Glad you've sanitised your handbag tak1ngchances! GrinThanks

Just got sent a video of my ten week scan by the clinic -DH said the baby loos like a cross between a seal pup and sperm whale! True! It's so sweet though with its little heart beating super quick...

Bumpforme2014 · 25/03/2014 21:22

Awwwww I would have loved a video, gonna get DH to film next scan on his phone if all okay.

Grannyapple · 25/03/2014 21:23

Hey ladies! Not feeling sick or nauseous today, but bloody shattered. 2 kiddies are ill at the mo so me & DH had one each, with both of us up for 2 hours from 3 this morning....yawn! Just had dinner & off to bed soon.

Just wanted to say I too thought I felt movement the other day & then a popping sound! I too am paranoid it's twins as I feel the worst ive ever felt on pregnancy & also showing already & I'm only 10 wks!! Mum was a twin too...eek. Need to wait for 2 wks to find out for sure..

Loopylu84 · 25/03/2014 21:53

Hello ladies!
Just checking in to mark my place, glad to hear lots of positive scan news and Sparkle I hope everything is ok for you this week

I continue to be almost entirely symptomless, the sore boobs continue but the crippling tiredness that I had between wks 6-9 seems to have gone, in fact if I didnt know any better I would have no idea that im pregnant which is a bit strange really, I had a scan at 8 weeks which showed a strong heartbeat and that everything was fine, however because of the lack of symptoms I swing from being massively grateful to worrying something is wrong Blush
Anyway, 10+6 tmoro and have my scan next thursday so hoping all will be well
Obviously now I've actually written about having no symptoms I'll wake up tomorrow with full on morning sickness....!

Also up for a fb group Smile

Kirstipops · 25/03/2014 21:57

Nope not felt any flutters at all, though I was told the placenta is to the front of my uterus so maybe it's acting as a wee cushion for the time being! Looking forward to feeling proper kicks, I can't imagine how it feels and hadn't even given it much thought until a friend who is 18 weeks was saying she could feel lots of little kicks!

ExcitedCJ · 25/03/2014 22:01

Hi all, marking place..
I had a crazy day too but not as icky a start as you taking! I told DH about your morning & he made an eugh face as I chuckled.
I had a board meeting today & nearly cried 3 times! Once I had to excuse myself for being emotional but that I just felt very passionately about the topic!
I have to present a lot in my job & I'm finding that very difficult at the minute as I get really emotional & anxious when I never did before. I hope I get over it soon.
Puppy last time I was knackered up to WK14 then tired again from WK36. I got heart burn from WK18 but no nausea. This time I am totally exhausted, could & have slept sitting up & feel nauseous lots. Now 10 wkd so I hope I get some energy soon.

clairemiss79 · 25/03/2014 22:22

I love hearing the news about the flutters. Makes me feel less insane as my dh doesn't believe me! Great to hear all the positive scan news. Mine isn't until next thurs.

vicky123uk · 25/03/2014 22:26

We had our scan today. All good and measuring at 12+6 so giving me a due date of 1st October - yay! No reason seen still for all the bleeding and other stuff so hopefully will just go away eventually!

TroubleAndFyfe · 25/03/2014 22:36

Congratulations Vicky! Grin That's great news. Did your EDD move with your first? Mine was spot on, wondering if it's likely to be the same again. (Would be lovely to skip ahead a few days! Grin)

MrsBadCrumble74 · 25/03/2014 23:10

Marking my spot on the new thread too :) so lovely to hear peoples scan news. I swear I've been feeling a little flutter down there but not sure whether that can be true being rather curvaceous. Sending lots of positive thoughts to those still bleeding - I bled from weeks 6 to 9 and thought everything was going wrong and I had a lovely dating scan last week showing a lively little bean :)
I'm veering between a few good hours and then feeling completely yuk again. Never has cheese on toast seemed like such a gourmet meal!
Up for a FB group too.

Kirstipops · 26/03/2014 07:41

Yowzah. Interesting dream last night, I think I'm possibly still blushing.... (And Matt Damon should be too)

mrsb87 · 26/03/2014 08:04

Haha kirsti I have had some really naughty dreams!! I wake up with a right chuckle.

Slept like an absolute log last night, it was great! First time since the beginning of this pregnancy.

CareBearWithFangs · 26/03/2014 08:06

Morning

I'd join a Facebook group too.

Kirstie please share your dream Grin

Glad to hear more good scan news. Excited/nervous about mine, and it's still ages away.

I got a call yesterday from one of the home birth midwives in my area, she just wanted to introduce herself because she'll be my midwife if I go for a home birth. She seemed lovely so feeling quite positive about a possible home birth now.

TroubleAndFyfe · 26/03/2014 08:28

Sounds like there might be a few homebirthers on this thread, that'll be nice.Smile

ohthegoats · 26/03/2014 08:41

Due to being a technical moron, I have no idea how a FB group works (I am on FB though) - I'd be up for it if it's 'secret' to my friends list though. I'm not going to announce I'm pregnant at all, so want to keep it quiet on there.

FrauEnglischLehrerin · 26/03/2014 11:33

Hi, may I join in, please?

I'm 10 weeks pg with dc2. Had a scan today at a routine appt at my ob/gyn (this is normal in Germany where I live) and saw the foetus with heartbeat. In my current state of worry this will probably only reassure me for a few days, but I've got the diagnostic screening scan booked for April 10th, so only two weeks to wait.

I'm massively in awe of those who are managing to teach full days at school in early pregnancy. I run classes for small groups of kids and in the last few weeks I've felt ready to lie down after about 45 min.

Anyway, it will be nice to chat occasionally with you lot, although I'm not sure I'll manage to keep up all the time with the thread moving so quickly!

mum2kiss · 26/03/2014 11:49

Welcome frau :)

The group I am part of is completely private. Post do not show in news feeds so no one knows I am a member of the group unless they are a member themselves.

Gosh its freezing in my house this morning...too lazy to go up.and put the heating on so im sat with a blanket wrapped around me lol!

Still minimal pgp pain here...not sure if that means its gone...or if its just taking a few days break!

binkybunny · 26/03/2014 12:40

Felt a bit ropey still this morning but really craving fruit for the first time in ages. Have spent all morning eating strawberries and drinking cranberry juice and honestly feel like dancing at the moment. Maybe this is where I have been going wrong with all my crappy food eating. Or I could just be having a sugar rush from the fructose ;-)

magichandles · 26/03/2014 13:10

GTT this morning and results were fine, which is a massive relief as if I had tested positive at this stage I would probably be diabetic already. I didn't even feel too sick for not eating - having a better day fortunately. Their protocol is testing again at 20 and then at 28 weeks though, so I'll have to go through it again in the not too distant future.

Kirstipops · 26/03/2014 13:28

Welcome Frau :)
Good to hear some of you are starting to have better days, I'm sure they will outnumber the "mehh" days in the coming weeks, feeling much better today, still tired at times but I blame that on not going to bed early enough (which I will blame on DH's band and football practices through the week which delay my dinners!)
I looked into the FB group and it'll be a "secret" one that would be best (as opposed to closed and open groups). In order to start up the group I'll have to add one of you as a friend, then I can post the link here for you to request "membership" I guess?

Kirstipops · 26/03/2014 13:37

carebear - re: my dream, I'll say this, it was very vivid (it actually woke me up!!) and Mrs Damon is a very lucky lady bwahaha!
