Due-in Due-ly - July thread 2, where the beans turn into beansprouts

[WantToGoingTo]

Hello all had a go at a very naff name! Hop across!

Hello ladies from a bitterly cold Canada. it's a face biting -13 here today (a dry, sharp kind of cold) and we've already had snow. In Autumn ffs! I have no idea what I'm going to do for a coat as winter rolls on. I just bought an all bells and whistles winter coat that coat a bloody fortune but I'm doubtful will carry me through until April/May when it might actually start to warm up... I never had this problem when I was pregnant with DS, my first who was born in July) as UK winters are so much milder and waaay shorter. I do t want to spend another few hundred dollars on a maternity coat that I'll only need for a few months, but we don't drive and can look forward to temps of down to -30

Anyway, enough of my mini panic, hello to all the newcomers!

Fx for you sdyer

Three geez!! I was complaining that it was 8oc here in London this morning!!!

Hi Ladies - can I join you for some support?
This is my first ever pregnancy which has come about by IVF round three.

According to the NHS etc my due day is 24th July.

First scan, 8 weeks due to IVF is on the 9th December.

And I'm betting I'm the oldest here. I'll be 40 by the time they arrive!

Welcome pipbin I think we share a due date. Great that you get an early scan, I should at 7 weeks due to previous MC although I've heard that early it can be a little inconclusive... Am I better waiting until 8 or 9?

they pipbin? Are you a multiple? How exciting congrats and welcome! Quite a few ladies on here are about 40 :) (not me though I'm afraid I am one of the youngest at 23!)

Also I am due on 24th too! :)

Hi Pipbin congratulations and I'll be 41 when DC3 arrives!

How are you feeling in yourself?

Hey pip!

Welcome aboard!

Hello ladies, may I join in?

I got my bfp yesterday and this will be DC2 for us. I have a DD who will be 2 next month. I'm 33 and live in Kent.

Reading through this thread reminds me of the anti natal club thread I was on last time around, it was so helpful to be able to talk about all those little niggles and worries with people who understood. I'm sure this time around you girls will be just the same. I'm really excited to go through this journey with you all.

Oh I forgot to say my due date is 28th July.

Welcome Duck!

when is your DD?

Let me know if I've missed anyone!

I've got a bump today, I'm so bloated. Also my back is killing me, I think I need to stop the underwire bra use!

Welcome Duck, whereabouts in Kent? I'm Kent too.

Leela I've been contemplating investing in a couple of comfy non-wired bras this week?! Although DP is very "proud" of the impressive size of my boobs! Men!

Sarky I'm 25! Well I really thought that was it for my sickness this morning. No chance, 2pm I started feeling sick and started all over again although I came home early and forced a packet of salt and vinegar down me, feel lots better now xx welcome all the newbies xx

Overtired, mine don't feel bigger but they must be as my bra is uncomfortable and my back is killing me ! Will pop to m&s tomorrow. Glamorous!

I know!! How is it possible to stay trendy, stylish and not cost a fortune when pregnant?!!

I know!! How is it possible to stay/be trendy, stylish and not cost a fortune when pregnant?!!

sarky I just turned 28, actually got my BFP on my birthday haha.
We're thinking now we're gonna wait and see if I'm showing at Christmas, and then take it as it comes... If not, we're gonna try and wait until after the scan, if so, then we'll have to say something earlier.

leela I went out at the weekend and bought a few loose/flouncy but fancy tops to wear at work for the next few months. I've been so bloated the past two weeks, and it's only getting worse, so it's making it rather difficult to hide with my normal work attire!

Decided to call in sick today. Just couldn't manage to do any work while feeling so crap. Took it really easy, had a long snooze in the afternoon. My nausea is definitely better when I'm relaxing and not doing anything (!). I'm thinking about learning some relaxation techniques. Not quite sure what I'm going to put on the sick leave report as don't want to write "pregnancy nausea" but don't want to lie either!!!?

My best friend at the moment is Marmite on toast. I bought the biggest jar I've ever bought in my life!

Discovered that my smart TV has yoga videos on it! So I was very proud of myself earlier as I did 10 minutes.

Anyone thinking of a home birth?

Evening, this thread has moved fast today. Think I am joining the slightly older mums to be at 36.
Sorry am on my phone and have forgotten names but I really don't think a couple of glasses in the 2ww is anything to worry about. Chances are that bean wasn't actually getting much from you then and so many people drink loads with absolutely no effect before they find out.
I think somebody was saying they have been to Frimley before. What is it like? It is quite far from me but I have heard it is good so considering it.

small I have marmite issues too!

Especially on cheese on toast, or in cheese straws yum

Also need savoury umami and acidic, no interest in sweet whatsoever. DH brought me a bowl of ice cream last night, I turned it down and it is back in the freezer

WantTo - please add me to the stats! DC2 edd 22 July
