The T-shirt worked a treat. Mom read it out loud and then you saw her face drop after a second or two when she realised what she'd said. DS was already squealing! Grin

That's great poly bet it's good to tell people :) how did your mom take it?

sammyj85 · 06/06/2014 18:08

Hi, can I move over onto here please?

Very excited that I can do that!

freneticfox · 06/06/2014 18:31

sammy we must be due around a similar time!

freneticfox · 06/06/2014 18:36

I know this probably is a popular question, but when did people start telling family? I'm only 5 weeks on Sunday, but I can't wait to tell my Mum. My Dad passed away suddenly and unexpectedly 18months ago and we've both been trying to find a new normal and look to the future; I can't wait to share this news with her.

sammyj85 · 06/06/2014 18:39

Due on valentines day :-)

PolytheneGirl · 06/06/2014 18:55

Just told DF and he cried! Now I know where I get it from! It's been a very good day GrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

Glad scans went well Calling and Poly and welcome Sammy.

I told my parents at 6 weeks as I would have told them if anything went wrong. We told the rest of our immediate family and a couple of friends at 9 weeks after an early scan then most people at 12 weeks. It's very personal so if you want to tell your mum, just do it.

MrsBeeBeeBee · 06/06/2014 19:04

With DD and this little bean we'll be waiting until 13 week scan to tell everyone. Except my sister. We're extremely close and I told her straight away both times.

PolytheneGirl · 06/06/2014 19:04

Congrats and welcome Sammy!

Fox we didn't tell anyone till after our 12 wk scan today but last time we told our parents straight away. There are no rules, do what feels right!

Glad your scan went well too Poly!! Smile
And glad that telling everyone has resulted in some lovely happy reactions!!

Frenetic - i've told my mum only. She's on strict instructions to keep quiet. I've got my second reassurance scan next week, which if all being well will result in a scan pic going in my dads fathers day card. Everyone else will wait until 12 weeks. I'm most excited to tell my nieces!!

I'm addicted to crackers spread inch thick with Lurpack....mmm!! Need to curb that one!!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 06/06/2014 19:08

Oh and welcome Sammy - congratulations!

fancyacupoftea · 06/06/2014 19:16

Meant to be going to a school function for students later. Just woken from my nap and feel grim so don't think that'll be happening but feel well guilty.

Congrats fox and sammy! We told both sets of parents after an early scan at 6 weeks, bf at 8 weeks and people at work on a 'need to know' basis which has somehow become 6 already. I don't know why but I don't enjoy telling people though!

lindamagoo · 06/06/2014 20:06

Frenetic I'm totally different to everyone else! I couldn't keep my mouth shut and told everyone straight away, I'm not good at keeping my own secrets, lol Smile

sammyj85 · 06/06/2014 20:20

Thanks :-) can't wait for scans and telling people and it's been less than a day!

fancyacupoftea · 06/06/2014 20:31

I feel rough as fuck this evening. Anyone fancy coming over and tucking me in and patting my head?

RetroHippy · 06/06/2014 20:48

linda, I'm glad I'm not the only one... So far I've told the mentalist who bought my house, three people at work, two friends and my parents. DH has told his parents, his brother and his wife, two people at work and one friend.

So much for keeping shtum Blush

Well, the big 'O' has gone! I survived, hurrah! Can't say how we did, just in case anyone puts two and two together, but we're all very relieved it's over!

I feel like I can settle down to enjoying the new house and being pregnant now Smile

PolytheneGirl · 06/06/2014 20:51

Just told the ILs! It's still going well! Grin

Sorry you're feeling crap Fancy. Get a film on the telly and a nice big block of cheese to munch on.

Well done Retro, now put your feet up! That's an order!

Pats cupoftea on the head.

Tiredness or sickness?

Has anyone in here been suffering much with sickness?

freneticfox · 06/06/2014 20:57

All day I've felt like my boobs are just so uncomfy and I'm super bloated... normal at 5w?!

MademoiselleG · 06/06/2014 21:02

Gosh retro , it's just suddenly dawned upon me how much you've been through in the past 2 weeks: bfp, house move AND big 'O'...can't believe you've survived it all! Just wanted to say a big well done Grin

Virtually tucking you in fancy, I hope you feel better soon. I certainly feel like Shite too at the moment and it's my birthday this weekend! Boak...

Viperama · 06/06/2014 21:36

Can anyone recommend a good pregnancy ap?

No nausea today for first time in a week. But I have the hunger. I can only eat little and often and no sweet cravings, so weird!

RetroHippy · 06/06/2014 21:37

Thanks Mlle, I do feel totally wiped out now. Got a feeling I've been running on adrenaline, certainly for the last week. Very much in need of a lazy weekend now. Though I know I'll be awake at 4am, 5am, 6am tomorrow.

I suspect the exhaustion will kick in next week, 7 weeks Monday!

I've got a 'Happy Fathers Day Grandad' card that I'm sending to my dad. He'll hate that he's old enough to be a grandfather Grin

Viperama · 06/06/2014 21:38

Happy birthday Madmoiselle or should I say bonne anniversaire!
