Yes to the mega-private FB group plan!

Booking in appt tomorrow.

Mummy yup I've been seeing ?? in your posts - assumed it was just me as I also get blank boxes where people have used emoticons my computer doesn't recognise for some reason. Hmm Anyway, I assumed it was me not you, so I wasn't judging your punctuation skills! Grin

Yikes Tea and wax - that sounds horrendous. You poor things!

FussyHendricks · 11/09/2015 17:58

Great news about your scan Carrot!

Also up for the FB group. We had one for my last antenatal thread and I think is was a secret group which meant posts, membership and even existence of the group were only visible to members.

Rinnyx · 11/09/2015 18:43

I think FB group is a go then as long as well hidden Grin
We had/have one for us that where due in Nov 2010.
We have just been sharing first day school pics and some of us are even FB friends too

I'm definitely doing a fun announcement Rinnyx! Since it's potentially my last pregnancy I'm going to try to eek as much fun as possible out of this one. Maybe he will change his mind?

wax your night sounds horrific! You have my sympathy. You definitely need to get this sorted before the baby arrives. I used The Baby Whisperer books to sleep train my first daughter. It was bloody hard work, but now she sleeps all night, every night. Well worth it! Learnt my lesson, so when DD2 came along I sleep trained her from birth Blush. Poor thing!

Congrats to everyone who has had scans. I am jealous! My private one is 2 weeks tomorrow Smile. Can't wait.

Feel like such a fat blob already! Was determined not to overeat, but nibbling constantly stops the nausea! Hopefully after week 12 things will settle down.

MsGlitterJunkie · 11/09/2015 19:15

Yep, count me in for the facebook page too!

Glad the scan went well Carrot and good luck with your booking appt pallas.

ToesAndFingersCrossed · 11/09/2015 19:32

Want2b well done on getting childcare sorted, that sounds like it was really stressful!

How are you doing crumbly? I really feel for you with your job - I feel terrible and I only work in an office. I used to manage a restaurant and can't imagine surviving on my feet all day at my old job right now - you're a hero!

weasel sounds pretty hellish for you atm, roll on 2nd trimester and a bit more energy!

MsTea yay for scan date! It's not too long to go now. I don't have sore boobs either, I've decided it's a positive.

Carrot yay for dating scan, that's so nice you could take DH and DS. Glad everything is good.

fee is your scan on Monday?

I'm up for a Facebook group too if it's super secret.

AFM I had my 7 week scan on Wednesday and everything looked good (although was measuring 6w4d which makes my due date 30th April!) so I have been discharged from the clinic and now am just classed like a normal non high risk person, yay! I made a booking appointment (5th October) and a dating scan (19th October). That's so far away I think I'll have to go for a private one in the middle - still terrified!

Oopsnumber3 · 11/09/2015 19:56

Ooh, yes defo up for an FB group here too. Sorry I've been awol, we were at CP this week and it took all energy corralling both DC whilst feeling ropey.

DizzyMerry · 11/09/2015 20:24

Fab news about your scan carrot and toes.

Good luck with your booking in appointment pallas.

TriJo · 11/09/2015 21:27

12 week scan today - everything went well and we got to see that our little one is a little wriggler! Got moved forward another 2 days as well so now 12+5.

pingoose · 11/09/2015 21:58

Congrats on the scans everyone! It's so exciting.

Luckily I work in an office too, and set my own pace with my work - safe to say, I've not done much all week. I may need to tell my boss soon, as my role involves lifting archival boxes - OK at the moment, but I'm not sure for how long.

Had my booking appointment yesterday, and got the date for my 12 week scan, 14 October.

Also keen for a super secret FB group. We're undecided about an announcement or not - we've got one family on one side of the world, and the other family on the other side, so trying to work out the nicest, easiest way of telling everyone!

mummy I think the site is having problems with punctuation - it's showing the GBP symbol as ?? as well.

Mummyofonesofar · 12/09/2015 07:38

Ok I have set up a fb group, if everyone sends me their emails address/Facebook name and a hint about your picture so I add the right person then I can add you. You will get a friend request from me, I won't give my name away on here but will tell you in pm.

DizzyM I have added you already.

rinnyx I'm doing a fb post announcement, I know they are cheesy but I don't care.

triJo congrats on the scan!

ping yay for appointments coming up too Smile

crumblybiscuits · 12/09/2015 07:57

Hi everyone, scan went fab, saw a little heart flickering away but got put back yet again to 7w 5d making me due around the 25th of April. Will upload pic at some point today but it does really just look like a blob haha. So thrilled. It feels like I really will have a baby at the end of this all!

MsGlitterJunkie · 12/09/2015 08:06

I'm also doing a facebook announcement, my friends and family are all over the globe, much easier than calling everyone although will tell my nearest and dearest beforehand!

Thanks for setting up the group mummy, will pm you.

Great news on ths scans toes trijo & crumbly v pleased for you all Smile

I'm off house hunting today, currently live in a lovely flat in the centre of London but it's 3rd floor no lift so time to get practical especially as I'm probably going to need a c-section!!

Mummyofonesofar · 12/09/2015 08:36

Congrats crumbly glad the scan went well.

Have messaged you glittery

Rinnyx · 12/09/2015 08:49

Mummy I think I might just post the scan and put something like 'here we go again' or '1 boy, 1 girl, the breaker coming (insert month)'

FB wasn't around when I had DD and with DS due to MC's and pety family we just said we had a baby in a post update when DS was finally born Grin

Midwife Monday and still DP and I are name fighting...have been for weeks Blush

Mummyofonesofar · 12/09/2015 09:01

Rinnyx that sounds nice! No I didn't have CB with DS. I'm putting a picture of bumpy me then + sign and a picture of DP and DS. then underneath put = 5! Due April 16.

Dellabob123 · 12/09/2015 09:17

Hi everyone, I've been manic at work for weeks and travelling all over. The madness ended on Thursday and now thinking about packing to go to Devon for a week!

How is everyone else's skin? I posted in other board but maybe you can help. This happened with dd1, but around week 10 I developed very dry patchy skin and a cyst like lump on my cheek. It lasted the whole pregnancy. And it's happening again. Bright red/transparent cyst like lump that's sore. It really got to me last time and I don't want to go through it again. Anyone had anything similar? Should I go the docs?

Dellabob123 · 12/09/2015 09:21

Oh no, im not on fab..does that mean you're all leaving here?

I've got my booking in and 12 week scan same day on 23rd sept as away next week...will tell everyone after that. I think my boss suspects as he seems to have changed towards me. I'm definitely not imagining it.

Dellabob123 · 12/09/2015 09:21

Fb not fab

Feefee45 · 12/09/2015 09:31

Congrats Toes my scan is Monday and I have a feeling I may measure a little smaller than the 7w 5d than I should be based on the dates I was getting with clear blue. Do you have many symptoms yet?
Great news crumbly and trijo glad all went well.
Will PM you my Facebook details mummy

ComeLuckyApril · 12/09/2015 09:50

I will still be on here Dellabob (though I know I don't post lots). I'm not sure yet about the Facebook group. I'm on there but only really use it for professional stuff, and it makes me nervous the idea of anyone knowing my mumsnet username as I usually change it lots for anonymity.

Not much is happening with me, still very sick. GP gave me Phenergen which didn't really help, now I'm trying cetirizine. Can't really enjoy being pregnant when this sick, and when I mentioned medication in passing to my mother, she went on a big rant about how I mustn't take anything. All these drugs are safe, but she's not one to listen. Sigh. I hope it really does improve at 12 weeks.

My skin is blotchy, but that could be anything. Maybe even a reaction to the Pregnacare.

CarrotVan · 12/09/2015 10:52

I'm similar to April not a massve FB user and very cautious

pingoose · 12/09/2015 10:54

I'll still be here! Can't get on FB at work, but can get on MN Grin

DizzyMerry · 12/09/2015 12:05

I'm glad all is well crumbly and trijo.

I only joined FB to join the grads I was in the conception thread with. I'm massively cautious so didn't use my real name or put a profile pic up. I don't use FB otherwise and don't think I could keep up being in another group so I'll just stick around on here.

Della I don't have any advice but definitely see your GP as they may be able to prescribe something.

ComeLuckyApril · 12/09/2015 12:45

Ah, cyclizine not cetrizine. But do you know what, I think it's actually working. Just been able to eat lunch!!!!
