Hi,

I've finally got my BFP and want to find others who want to chat and eat cake whilst being excited about cooking our little dragons.

I am 31yrs old, just got my BFP for #2.

Come in and sit down for the next nerve racking 9 months :)

By the way I'm so pleased to be past the symptom spotting stage of ttc!

dancestomyowntune · 06/08/2014 12:56

Yes I've had early scans with all of mine for one reason or another. Usually internal. I'm panicking now, having googled my kidney problem and pregnancy. Dr told me (before ttc) that it would be fine, but looking at Google it looks like I could be in for a rough time :(

CatRen27 · 06/08/2014 12:57

Eek sorry lozzg82 our posts coincided - sorry to hear about your father in law, that must be hard. Only you will know what's best but some happy news might brighten his spirits?

ScaredyCat2014 · 06/08/2014 13:01

Hi all, can I join in? Have been lurking for a while but after taking test number 8 this morning I am now actually confident enough that it is real and that I can join you without being a fraud! I tested super early (5 days before AF) so by calculations I am only just coming up to 4weeks - edd I think is April 16th. I'm 34, 1st baby and although I came off Bc in April this was our first month of trying properly - shocked to say the least that it has happened so quickly! Since finding out I have followed this link and already you ladies have calmed me down lots - thank you! It's great to know there are people out there going through exactly the same feelings and fears - looking forward to sharing the next few months with you all!

Anxiety is off the chart at the moment but that's work problems I think. I would so walk out but then no maternity statutory pay or maternity allowance..grr!
I had an early scan last time because of bleeding but no had t b referred by my g.p.x

Cassieyellow · 06/08/2014 13:17

Hello to lots of new people. Hard to keep up isn't it! Can't remember if I said yippee to Brixton. My boobs are not sore like they were last time and so far no nauseous but feel full all the time ( quite useful really! ). Still don't really believe it. And often forget! Did anyone watch that new drama last night about pregnant ladies on BBC 1? I have recorded it.

scratchandsniff · 06/08/2014 13:21

Is it just me that struggles to keep up with the thread? Lots of us already. Nice to have other people in the same boat, especially when nobody in rl knows.

I've noticed today that certain smells are starting to make me feel queasy. Really hoping I don't feel as rubbish as last time. Will struggle to hide it if I do.

Haven't phoned midwife yet. Guess I better do that. Still in a state of shock I think.

RiverRocks · 06/08/2014 13:46

dances they only do internal until about 8 or 9 weeks, I think, as there's not much to see and the tummy scan doesn't pick it up.

They need a full bladder for external, but for the internal they specifically sent me out for a wee and I felt about 5 again, because I didn't really need one, but thought I should go for a 'try

minipie I know what you mean about being grumpy. DH calls it the pregnancy rage. I have absolutely no patience with anyone or anything.

cinnamongreyhound · 06/08/2014 14:11

Congratulations Ginricky!

Oh dear that is tricky to hide evenhasawatermark!!

Oh no bluefreckles :( I have been constipated through both pregnancies and it's started already! Although running is helping this time as I find and few hours after I feel the urge to go!

Sickness started at 5 weeks with my other two chiliplant but I'm 5 weeks today and I'm not nauseous, except the odd little wave, this time! I'd say lucky but having had it before I do feel a little apprehensive not having it so far!

Lovely RiverRocks!! And no it doesn't make you a bad mum! Dh reckoned he could see both mine were boys before the sonographer said anything but I couldn't!

cinnamongreyhound · 06/08/2014 14:21

Sorry missed a whole page!!

Yes minipie, I'm having on and off rage episodes a la pre af!!

lozzg81 I cried today because I realised that ds1 didn't know any of the songs on the radio and they were actually 15 years old and I'm REALLY old :( what a fool!!! A friend of mine had a similar dilemma with her mum when pregnant, she decided to tell her and although she was sad she wouldn't meet the baby was very pleased her daughter was pregnant.

Congratulations ScaredyCat2014!

My boobs don't hurt anymore and I had a mini panic this morning so poas! Still have 6 IC left so tried one and phew there's still a line!!

minipie · 06/08/2014 15:21

BrixtonBunny · 06/08/2014 18:01

Oh my goodness I am so grumpy! My poor DP! And my sex drive had plummeted, we usually have sex 5 times a week but for the last few days it's felt so unappealing Hmm

BrixtonBunny · 06/08/2014 18:34

Also, for everyone (including me) who doesn't feel sick yet - GBBO is on tonight! Planning on watching with DP whilst eating cake Grin

Cassieyellow · 06/08/2014 18:47

Can't wait for GBO. I love seeing all our random names! (Mine is quite boring....after our old dog!).

BrixtonBunny · 06/08/2014 18:48

I think my favourite random name has to by pyrowall's Grin
