Due in February 2017...thread #3!

[SkyLucy]

A home for all of us enjoying the surreality of the first trimester. We're sick as dogs, exhausted to the core, our boobs hurt, we've developed superhuman senses of smell and we're shirking all alcoholic bevvies with a variety of lame excuses...

...we're preggers and over the moon! Join us if you're due in February 2017 and fancy wisdom for the weirdness, support for any sadness, and a safe place where you can get excited about what the future holds, before you go public!

Third thread already (we're a chatty bunch!) Second thread here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/2662110-Due-in-February-2017-thread-2?

Yeah wispa I dunno how to pm you either so can you message me and I'll reply :) X

I'd like to join the FB group too if I may? I was on thread 1 of Feb 2017, but have struggled to keep up since. I'll pm you now wispa

Right, I've invited a few of you. I'm going to bed soon, but I can invite more people tomorrow if others send me Their emails. ma, I see you're already in the group! Anyone invited should get an email from Facebook with a link to the group, just check your spam/junk folder if I've said I've invited you and you don't see anything.

Sorry wispa putting people's names in bold is about as far as I get with doing anything fancy on MN, no idea how to do a PM.

Can someone tell the rest of us so poor wispa doesn't have to deal with PMinf us individually?

PMing...

Just used some rare initiative and did a search...

How to send a private message

To send a message, just go to your Inbox (at the very top of your browser window between the 'Log out' and 'About us' links) and click on New message. In the 'To' field, fill in the Talk nickname of the person you want to message, then write your message and press 'Send'.

See you on FB!

You annoyingly can't PM from the app, it has to be done on the actual mumsnet website, that could be why.

That was why I couldn't do it X

Right, I've just put my laptop away, but I've invited everyone who has PMd me an email so far.

It won't let me join- keeps showing this when I click the link! Aw well, I'll try again tomorrow

Please don't leave to go to Facebook, I am not a member of Facebook for lots of personal reasons that I won't go into but I am loving the support that this thread is giving.

I am so sorry Flying How incredibly unfair.

Erm...is anyone else not on FB? I was, but deactivated the account in Feb...would rather not reactivate, but don't want to miss out on thread news!

Skylucy I am not on it either do hopefully there will be a few of us that will stick around this thread

flying, how devastating, so sorry you've had to go through this again.

Wispa are you sure people wont see that I have joined this group?
Ok I dont know how to send a private message here
Can I do it using the app?

100% sure, ever!

jp and sky, I'm sure the thread will keep going. Last time around although a lot of us emigrated to Facebook in the first trimester, we still check on the MN thread, just didn't post quite as much, and the thread still continued up until we had our babies. I'll have to admit that I never joined the postnatal club thread, though, as Facebook was just a million times easier for me. There will always be people who don't use Facebook, though, you're not alone!

cinderella, I don't actually know what the email looks like that gets sent out, but maybe there's more than one link? That's a bit odd that it thinks you want to invite yourself again. Maybe you already accepted and if you click the link again it won't let you accept again?

Good morning everyone. How are we ?
Last night was aweful I spdnt the night sicktill 4am I am 9+2 when this will stop ?
Wispa can I join thefacebook group please? I'll log in from my laptop and send you an email

Hi all, i think i may be out. Heavy bleeding and clotting this morning. Trying to get hold of epu, which is impossible

Jp I am not leaving
I think they want to use both, facebook and this
I sometimes go off facebook for mental health but I will stay here even if I joined the other over there

Ginger I dont know when it will stop
I thought maybe at the 12 weeks scan
But then I am sure I will worry about health problems with the baby, problems at delivery and so on.

I have realised that I need to change my ways and find a way to look at this in a positive way and stop googling dramas and ifs

Mas please let us know. It might just be normal bleeding, I hope you can see the epu asap

thinking of you masweetpea just think of everyone else in this thread who experienced bleeding but have since seen heartbeats and had happy outcomes. Crossing everything for you xxxx

masweetpea thinking of you and hope you get hold of epu soon xx

Thinking of you ma

It's too early for a Facebook group for me. Personally I'd find it a lot harder to leave a group if I had to than stop posting on a thread.

I think its probably a bit early for a Facebook group. Maybe at the end of next month when we are all a bit further along?

I'll join but I think using the thread for now makes more sense.

ma sorry to hear you've had a bleed. How far along are you? Am I right in thinking you have a scan scheduled for tomorrow?
