Lovely scan news Pug Smile

WhatsForYeWontGoByYe · 17/04/2015 12:08

Great news pug - really chuffed for you. Look at that - it's your BABY!!!

Fizzie100 · 17/04/2015 12:10

Thanks for the GP advice I just called them and cancelled my appointment as they said on reception to just call the hospital to book a midwife appointment. Feel so excited but nervous!

megarobotdiscoparty · 17/04/2015 12:17

Hurray for Pug and hello teeny Puglet!! Excuse me while I weep hormonally into my desk at the sight of such a tiny bean...

Fizzie100 · 17/04/2015 12:20

And wonderful news pug! Oh I'm thrilled for you. Can't even imagine getting to that stage just yet - so happy for you and sending positive thoughts for the next scan x

MrsMcJnr · 17/04/2015 12:22

Congratulations Pug and welcome Charleyebelle

Haribo - talking face to face ends in an argument, it´s too emotional. He drafted a 5 page document last week of arguments not to have it, I read it (in floods of tears) and countered the arguments in writing, then he wrote more. I was getting so upset that I have just stopped looking at it. I really don´t know whether he will get on board or not. I would add that most of his worries are either financial or about him being jealous of the kids, which are fine considerations if you are planning for another child but in my opinion are not when there is already on on board.

Great news pug!
My current symptom is just fatigue! I am so so tired all the time! No nausea yet, anyone know when morning/all day sickness usually starts? I have my flight home on wed (from aus) and really really hope it doesn't start before!

ThePug · 17/04/2015 12:27

You're all so lovely, thank you. I was sat in the waiting area with four other much further along pregnant ladies and getting myself really worked up that I wasn't going to get as far as them and it would be over before it started etc etc. Feeling a lot better now and hopefully the next two weeks will fly by.

In my stressing last night I forgot to thank whirlwind for posting the scan pic, which really helped when I was having mine this morning as I knew whatever they were looking for would be seriously small.

I am declaring myself 6+2 today. Which in theory would push my due date back to 12th December, but I've been told it is likely I'll be induced around 38 weeks (which would be 25th November - the day after my nephew's 3rd birthday, who was born 2 months prematurely). I really want a December baby though so will work really hard not to feed it too much sugar so it doesn't get too big too soon!

HariboBrenshnio · 17/04/2015 12:34

MrsMc - what a difficult situation. I really really hope he just comes round. He's as responsible for this baby as you, babies aren't made by one person! Could talking with another person there to mediate help?

megarobotdiscoparty · 17/04/2015 12:40

egg it realllly varies. I started feeling a bit weird about 6 weeks last time (not fancying certain foods etc) and by 7/8 weeks was feeling permanently on the verge of being sick. It was at its evillest around 11 weeks and stuck around in full effect til 18 weeks. I was 20 weeks when I felt able to eat relatively normally again (just in time for Christmas dinner - thank heaven). I think majority have a much shorter innings then I did though - and how much is nausea and how much is vomiting seems to vary a lot for everyone. Take each day as it comes is my best advice! Hope for the best!

Flowers for mrsmcjnr - I can't imagine how hard this must be for you.

Sweets27 · 17/04/2015 12:41

Oh pug, how exciting! I'm so glad it went well and they were able to find the little puglet! Smile

MrsMc, I have no idea what to say to help you, I'm so sorry. I've not experienced it, and I can only imagine how awful it must be to have DH so anti-baby. Maybe haribo has a good idea, and it's worth trying to talk with another person, even a professional counsellor? Flowers

Welcome to the newbies, and congratulations on your BFPs!!

TerryTheGreenHorse · 17/04/2015 13:01

Yay for Puglet.

Mrs mc I would be tempted to make if clear (if this is the case) that it's bit going to be an option for you to have an abortion if you feel strongly that's not what you want. So that he can stop discussing the pros abs cons because it's happened and that's pointless. Maybe if he knows you won't move from that position it will mean he's not wasting time trying to talk you around but getting his head around it?

Sorry must be so tough for you

ineedsomeinspiration · 17/04/2015 13:32

Hello fellow BAPS and all the new ladies.

pug great news for your scan. It's amazing seeing these early ones how much that little bean grows and changes between now and 12 weeks.

mrsmc I don't know what to tell you other than that if it was me I would tell dh I was keeping the baby and that he had as much responsibility in it's making as I did. I would tell him there was no point in him presenting you with essays on the matter but that if he had genuine concerns that you would sit with him and look at how best to deal with them as a couple.

I've got my 12 week scan date so it can be added to the stats it's the 27th May, ages away but something to look forward to.

Dh has taken ds to his Grandparents/aunts for the weekend so I can just chill.

Sweets27 · 17/04/2015 13:43

mrsmc, I think terry makes a really good suggestion. Have you already decided you are definitely keeping the baby? If so, I think it makes sense just to tell him that's what's happening, and that he needs to stop trying to persuade you not to keep it, so that you can both talk through your respective concerns together and work out how best you're going to manage having a new baby in your lives. Hope it works well for you love Flowers

tammie49 · 17/04/2015 13:59

what a terrible situation MrsMcJnr. I guess your dh needs to know exactly where you stand and if you're absolutely not going to consider a termination then it's not even worth discussing. whatever happens he really needs to be supporting you. as has already been said, it takes 2!

I'm about to pop out to return some trousers I bought a few weeks ago as they'll likely not be seeing me through the summer as I'd planned! my bra feels tight today. is it too early to get measured? I'm almost 6 weeks but don't want to get a new one only to be back again in a couple of weeks!!

Sweets27 · 17/04/2015 14:10

tammie I reckon it's a bit early, I'm 6 weeks and my boobs feel a bit swollen and very tender and heavy, which is making my bras feel like they're too tight, but I think at this stage it's mainly just discomfort and sensitivity. I'm planning to hold out for another few weeks til I can see a visible change in size. That said, only you know your body, so if you're uncomfortable now then maybe it's worth changing.

tammie49 · 17/04/2015 14:17

I agree, I reckon I can hold out a bit longer. I've heard maternity bras are really ugly so the longer I can wait the better!! I've just washed this one so maybe that's why.

abi2790 · 17/04/2015 14:40

Very glad everything went well with the scan pug, I bet it's a weight off your mind!

So I couldn't get an appointment for today but got one for Monday afternoon. Obviously if it's get worse i'll seek medical advice before then although I don't think there is a walk in centre in my area anymore. Sod's law I would start feeling unwell on a Friday!

puzzledleopard · 17/04/2015 15:14

First I'd like to say congratulations to everyone on there bfps :)

But sadly I will be leaving this thread joined on 9th and had put I was worried about this pregnancy and where it was going. I was right to trust my gut instincts that something was wrong been to EPU twice this week and had confirmation my hcg is dropping. PUL - pregnancy of unknown location at the moment going back Saturday too.

I put a post in pregnancy about there being nothing at my early scan :( had hoped to early to tell but second fears realised :(

But wishing everyone else good luck with their pregnancy and sticky beans to everyone else xxx

MrsMcJnr · 17/04/2015 15:20

Thank you for all of the support ladies. 8 years ago I was on a thread like this having tried for a very long time for my first child. I thought then that babies were almost impossible to make. Funny the cards life deals you :) Being on here with you all helps me keep positive and happy. The baby inside me is the one I thought I would never have and I had accepted that but now that he/she is here and growing I will do anything and everything I can to keep this little life forming :)

I don´t have any nausea yet either, with my boys I felt mildly sea sick from about 8 to 12 weeks, especially when I was tired or hungry but with my daughter I was sick all the time :) from the beginning to the end! Nothing too sinister like needing any treatment or anything, it just happened and I moved on, had to keep nappy sacks in my pockets as it would creep up on me without any warning!

MrsMcJnr · 17/04/2015 15:22

Thinking of you Puzzle, so sorry to hear your news and hoping that this weekend does not bring any worse news for you, look after yourself

MrsMcJnr · 17/04/2015 15:24

Tammie - as long as the wires in your bra are not pressing into your flesh under your armpit they shouldn´t do you any harm for the next few weeks.

HariboBrenshnio · 17/04/2015 15:29

So sorry to hear that Puzzle. Take care of yourself, now and in the weeks to come. Hope you have someone with you.

I wouldn't say it's too early for a new bra. I always go to bravissimo as my boobs are huge (34k!!) and last pregnancy they fit me in a bra that i would have 'room for growth' in at 6 weeks. Don't be uncomfortable! I love/need underwire and wore it right up until birth, as long as it's a good fit and isn't restricting milk (which it could if too tight near the end) it's fine.

Sweets27 · 17/04/2015 15:42

Oh puzzle, I'm so sorry to hear about that Sad take care of yourself and don't let it defeat you. Hope the appointment on Saturday isn't too difficult Flowers

mrsmc, it sounds like you are being so strong, and your little bean is helping you with that. It must be a huge help to at least be sure of your own feelings and to know what you want - your DH will have to come round to the idea, and I really hope he does soon. Flowers
