Just got my bfp positive today and am thinking we need a thread for all the babies that will be born around new years and Christmas. I'm due new years eve and just know I'll be sick of the comments real quick! So we can vent and plan low stress xmases together.

I know we have the December thread and will have the January one, but why the hell not there's room for everyone!

Think thats everybody who's posted so far? 27th is looking busy!

OhHolyFuck · 27/04/2015 15:06

I can't get on that google docs stat list, am I just being stupid?

whohasnickedmyvodka · 27/04/2015 15:13

Can I tentatively join you all I got my bfp on Wednesday not sure when I'm due as I have been over the place after losing my dd at 18+3 in October I think I'm about 5-6 weeks

BingBunnyIsAKnob · 27/04/2015 15:24

Yes 27th definitely looking busy OhHoly! I'm due 27th as well! I forgot to say that on my post Smile, although hoping to have an elective section this time after having a section 8 months ago so he/she may be here before Christmas hopefullyGrin

WonkyDonkBonk · 27/04/2015 15:46

27th busy isn't it. I guess there was nothing good on telly on 5th April Wink

SweepTheHalls · 27/04/2015 19:22

It's my third in fact! Still feeling rather surreal. Contemplating the Harmony or Nifty test as I'm 35 with this pregnancy and do rather worried that all is well. Anyone else thinking about this?

WonkyDonkBonk · 27/04/2015 19:39

Sweep What is thecnifty test? I'm 34 so not far behind you. I hadn't really thought about extra tests until now.

SweepTheHalls · 27/04/2015 20:56

They are both tests only available privately from 10 weeks, they are not diagnostic but do give you an almost definitive answer on the 3 most common trisomy. They are from 10 weeks and are a scan and blood test that gets sent to America and come back on just over a week. But.... £400+

horseylady · 27/04/2015 21:23

I refused all bloods last time and I think will refuse again. I won't have amnio and they'd pick anything major up in the US anyway. It's very difficult though to know what to do. And each of us will react differently. I just prefer not to know!!

whohasnickedmyvodka · 27/04/2015 21:26

My dd that I lost had downs syndrome so I doesn't bother me all I'm worried about is this one's heart :(

whohasnickedmyvodka · 27/04/2015 21:27

I'm 38 39 in September

JoeyBun · 27/04/2015 21:45

Hi, please can I join? According to my calculations edd is 26th December, although going from last LMP it would be 2 weeks earlier, but I'm sure I ovulated really late this cycle, nice to see a few others are in a similar position ref late ovulation too.

No symptoms yet, not sure if I'm pleased about that or not. I have a dd aged 10 months so there will only be 18 months between them, eek!

I'm also thinking of having an early scan. Dd was my second pregnancy, my first pregnancy ended in mmc at 10 weeks so I am proceeding with caution at the moment.

SweepTheHalls · 27/04/2015 21:48

I am worrying all ready, little bit of cramping and spotting tonight. I can't believe that I'm so attached to this Poppy see already. I did an Internet cheapie this evening that went positive pretty quickly and my last loss turned negative before I started bleeding.

Twoinjuredswans · 27/04/2015 22:22

Oh Sweep-sorry you are worrying. I think a bit of spotting and cramping can be normal-just everything stretching and settling. Keep us updated.

Thanks for the list OHF! That makes it all seem much more real! My sickness is coming and going-today i just wanted to eat all day!

ChandlersFarang · 28/04/2015 00:30

OhHoly thanks for writing the list out so we can see it easily! Just one minor amendment - it's my first DC not 2nd. Mad seeing me as potentially one of the first to go!! Wink

So I fell asleep on the sofa at 8:45 last night, woke up at 3am thinking it was time to get up (jetlag?!) and had to go and have a bowl of cereal as I was feeling dicey!! Up now at 06:30 and got a dull back ache although likely to be bowel as I've had constipation the last few days (sorry..!). I have no idea what you can take for it in the UK let alone in Thailand! Any advice? Should I just go and buy a ton of dates and eat them all?!!!

ChandlersFarang · 28/04/2015 00:31

Sweep I hope everything's alright. Are you having an early scan? Sounds positive if your HCG levels are high! Smile

Griffomais · 28/04/2015 06:42

Thanks for the list OHoly there's quite a few of us now Smile. I'm finding that I'm getting carried away and really excited I'm only 5 + 1 and I'm going to be 38 when DC2 arrives I'm a bit worried something might happen before my scan. I've got my booking in appt on 12th May. With my first DC I had horrendous nausea from week 7 until week 15 - hoping to have it a bit easier this time but lack of symptoms is a worry too. Sorry just re read this msg and realised I am being a bit neurotic. Hope everyone is ok - do you all have booking in apps?

BingBunnyIsAKnob · 28/04/2015 06:57

JoeyBun, my DS is 8 months so will be 16 months when baby arrives too, eeeekkk! Congrats! Smile

BingBunnyIsAKnob · 28/04/2015 06:59

Griff my booking app is the 21st of May, it feels like ages away!

Hez2386 · 28/04/2015 07:08

I have both my booking in appointment and first scan dates, but they seem ages away Sad
Booking in on 22nd May and first scan on 19th June.
Hope the next few weeks go quickly!

IfYouWereARiverIdLearnToFloat · 28/04/2015 07:29

I was given my MW booking slot at first GP appt - it's next week. And I got my first scan appt through yesterday for 16th June which seems ages away but I see the endo on the 8th of June so it's all happening. Makes it all very real!

SweepTheHalls · 28/04/2015 08:26

Nothing more over night, so this little thing is still sticking. Think about might get a clear blue conception indicator test today though you reassure myself!

Tangoandcreditcards · 28/04/2015 09:31

Hi can I join, just got my BFP EDD 2nd Jan. Waving at cuppasarah and queazy from the TTC #2 thread.

Hope you're doing OK sweep these early weeks are so nerve wracking.

I've just moved house and need to register at the docs before I can book any appointments in. Feeling a bit woozy and weak but in recovery from a stomach bug so might just be that; didn't really get any sickness last time. Worked out that am going to be on hols when i hit 12 weeks, hopefully will be able to fit scan around that!

Joey0805 · 28/04/2015 10:39

Hello...I got my BFP over the weekend, confirmed on a digital test this morning so really new! I think rough due date is 4th Jan (the online calculators think 19th Dec assuming a 28 day cycle but I've been so messed up since coming off the pill in August and I conceived on about CD38 not the usual CD14!). This no.1 and I am TERRIFIED!
