Hi ladies! I only mumsnet on my phone so can't seem to add my stats - would someone mind doing for me please?

34, 6+3 with #2 (after 27 loooong months of ttc!), edd 13 March

maybebabybee · 22/07/2015 08:17

Just had a mango smoothie and it's made my stomach feel horrendous, yuck.

Also I've put on 4 lbs in 6 weeks - ARGH!

Justnapping · 22/07/2015 08:22

Hi everyone! Can I join? I just tested yesterday and I am pregnant, can't believe it! Can't stop worrying now though. My stats:

32, edd 30th March with DC2, 4+0

I have the midwife on Friday which is exciting! But need to calm down and stop worrying, I had spotting and cramps 3 days before period due which I am hoping was implantation bleeding but it is worrying me.

Welcome justnapping!

Can't believe how many people already have dates for the 12 week scan. That's v organised. I've been to see GP but I don't know yet which hospital I'd be with as GP wants me to go to one where they have specialists in recurrent mc and pg after several mcs. But the hospital isn't officially on the list of 4 available from my borough so it's not a given they'll take me. GP has written an amazing letter trying to convince them they should.

Meanwhile almost counting the minutes until the early scan on friday. Will be 7+6 so hopefully if everything is ok we'll know fairly definitively.

Happy Wednesday all :-)

Welcome justnapping!

Wish me luck ladies. I've been bleeding since Sunday so I'm booked in for an early scan at 930. Hoping and praying all is well. We've tried so hard for this baby and I'm devastated that this could be it. Positive thoughts please!

lilmisshopeful · 22/07/2015 08:34

Bless you wonkyparsnip I'm sorry to hear about the bleeding. You've probably researched it all loads yourself but bleeding isn't always a sign things have gone wrong. Sending many positive thoughts your way x

Kittykitty05 · 22/07/2015 08:37

Good luck wonkyparsnip let us know how it goes x

Kittykitty05 · 22/07/2015 08:51

QforCucumber · 22/07/2015 09:01

Argh - I want to book a private scan for 8 weeks, can book one on the 8th August for £89, but I feel like anything could happen in that 2 weeks so worried about whether I should or not.

wonky fingers and toes crossed for you!

Welcome justnapping

LaraNotCroft22 · 22/07/2015 09:14

Morning all!

Great new thread!

My stats are:
32 (today!), dc #2, 8+1, EDD March 1st Smile

I'm off for an early scan this morning. Terrified and excited in equal measure!

Indomitable · 22/07/2015 09:20

Happy birthday Lara! Good luck for your scan.

Hello, I'm aspirationally named, 34, #2, 4+5, EDD 25/3 (which is the same as DS's EDD Blush oops), and not having an early scan.

BeautifulLiar · 22/07/2015 09:42

Good luck with scans today girls and happy birthday Lara.

I got my BFP 2 days after my birthday, kinda wished I'd tested on my birthday but never in a million years did I think I'd be pregnant! In fact I was downing champagne DH bought me Blush

Trinpy · 22/07/2015 09:54

Happy Birthday Lara! and good luck for the scan today.

I hope everything is ok wonky Thanks.

Can someone explain something to me please - according to my pregnancy app I'm due on the 23rd, which is a Wednesday, but it's telling me I will be 5 weeks tomorrow - shouldn't it be today? I've figured out why some sites say I'm due on the 24th (they haven't taken into account it's a leap year) but this one's got me really confused Confused. I am 5 weeks today, aren't I?

julesldn · 22/07/2015 09:58

Sending you loads of positive vibes wonky!! really hope all has gone well for you xxx

Hello to all newcomers too! ????

Indomitable · 22/07/2015 10:00

I've no idea Trinpy, but I've got 3 apps on the go and they all agree. If in doubt, download more apps! (I am ridiculous, I know. I've got a bit fuzzy headed too, and I'm cooking lunch before 10am).

Celen · 22/07/2015 10:22

Sorry Kitty, I meant shieldbug...Blush

Good luck!

marmitemofo · 22/07/2015 10:23

good luck wonky hope your scan goes well Flowers

nausea has really kicked in today. I feel sick to my stomach and can't move. Working from bed today, thankfully I have a job where I can work from home on my laptop. Can't even think of eating food. Although it's awful in some ways I'm happy to have a symptom as I have no other symptoms. With DD I remember feeling nauseous, but also having sore boobs, bleeding gums and lots of spots so I was starting to worry and lets be honest I'm still worried. I think it's definitely going to be a bed day for me

BeautifulLiar · 22/07/2015 10:26

marmite - at the risk of sounding like your mum, pleeeease eat! I know, it is probably the most unappealing thing right now, but you will be a lot worse off if you don't eat Thanks

Indomitable · 22/07/2015 10:35

Oh marmite, I remember that feeling. In the end I had to try not to think of food and try to eat without thinking. DH had to learn not to discuss food with me: don't ask me if I fancy this or that, just put it in front of me and I'll eat.

I reckon I've got a week till I join you in that. I have stocked up on ginger food/drink. Just in case.

MrsTattoo · 22/07/2015 10:42

Trinpy I'm due on the 23rd March too and I'm 5weeks today, what app are you using?

Rosieblossom123 · 22/07/2015 11:17

BeautifulLiar same here my doctors are so slow its annoying, my booking app is on the 3rd then I'll have to wait for the scan date to come through! hate waiting!!

marmitemofo I'm 7 weeks today and I feel 10x worse than last week, all I seem to eat is Ryvita :( tastes like cardboard, can't think of food the thought of it makes me gag!! I wish I could just leave work and go home, roll on 5pm haha
