Hey Ladies can I join!

Just got a definate BFP on a FRER this morning after a squinter yesterday! I am literally so exciting I do not know what to do with myself!

On a different note I have no idea what to do now!! Does anyone have any advise?

MrsCharlieD · 17/02/2017 08:52

Welcome @confused! Congratulations on your bfp! To be honest there isn't really much to do at the moment. Start taking folic acid if you aren't already and that's about it. You can contact your gp to see what their procedure is for referral to the midwife but you won't have an appointment until booking in which is around 8 weeks. If you'd like to join the thread Facebook group then please pm me x

Hi confused!!!! :D

DebsandScott · 17/02/2017 09:25

I think I would like to join the thread but worried people will see in news feed or it be a suggested group lol

DebsandScott · 17/02/2017 09:26

Oh and congrats confused :-)

confusedat23 · 17/02/2017 09:30

Hey Dancing!! Nice to see you here lol..

Thanks Mrs i need to see my GP asap because i have Perniscious Anaemia (so take folic acid anyways) and it can kid of go really well or really bad in pregnancy... but the absolute bitch they had on reception was not having any of it! Wanted me to wait a month for an appointment... i can't wait that long! Lol

Debs i am the same about it being visible... but maybe after 12 weeks =)...

So i am really nauscious today... probably slightly psychological... i just keep eating a mouthful of something and then throwing it away!

punkpuffin · 17/02/2017 09:44

The Facebook group is secret so no one else will as it.

Walikingdeadfan · 17/02/2017 09:45

Sorry if tmi. But is anyone else leaking? I felt something wet when I was walking to work this morning and was convinced I would find blood, but it was just cm. Maybe I need to do some kegels?

Zookeeper73 · 17/02/2017 09:45

That sounds rough, missm0use! I'm still feeding my 12 month old DD too but didn't really have a plan of how long for. I wanted to get to a year then reassess. I guess I want her to self wean sometime through this pregnancy as I don't really want to tandem feed.

Walikingdeadfan · 17/02/2017 09:46

Yes non-one else can see the facebook posts or know that your are part of the group.

DebsandScott · 17/02/2017 10:18

Oohhh I need to join that group then!

And I have copious amounts of CM as well, keep thinking AF is going to be there but nope!

abcdemma · 17/02/2017 10:36

Oh god nausea proper kicking in this morning! Unsure whether it's because I'm hungry or I genuinely don't want food. MW booked in for 3 weeks time, feels weird being bumped up to 5+1 even though I know it's only 3 weeks since we conceived. Tummy not sore this morning which I'm hoping is good too!

Glitterbubble · 17/02/2017 10:39

I have self referred to midwives this morning, told me I would get appointments through the wedding it's in next two weeks for booking appointment and 12-14 week scan!!

Took the 2nd test in the box this morning just to confirm this is actually happening ....it is very much happeningGrin

Good look to anyone waiting for an early scans

charmanar · 17/02/2017 10:53

mrscharlie I can't work out how to DM you! Is there any other way to join the fb group? God I'm so soooo hot today but it may just be that the weather is getting warmer and work still have the heating on full blast.

DancingUnicorn · 17/02/2017 11:09

I've only been able to dm from a web browser, not the talk app. Cannot figure out how to do that. And yes, fb is secret. I read all the privacy settings in detail, and have viewed my profile as 'public' and as other friends on my list, and it does not appear. You can only join by being invited by an existing member, as it cannot be found in a search. (Yes, I'm paranoid!!)

DebsandScott · 17/02/2017 11:14

Yeah you have to log on via a PC rather than the app to DM. I've just done that as feel more comfortable with the privacy now lol

mummabubs · 17/02/2017 12:01

Just to say thanks all for your positive thoughts and wishes yesterday Smile I was in EPU less than 10 minutes, they did an ultrasound which instantly picked up bubbabean with accompanying heartbeat so all is good! They have no idea what caused the bleed but I've left with a lovely scan pic that looks like a tiny snail and the actual realisation that I didn't invent the whole pregnancy thing and there's actually something definitely growing in there! Xx

sj3rram1 · 17/02/2017 12:04

Congrats mummabubs great news 😊😊

Glitterbubble · 17/02/2017 12:14

Fab news mummabubsGrin

Glitterbubble · 17/02/2017 12:15

Wow going back to my last post...

POST not WEDDING ...that is an epic auto correct fail!

DebsOctBaby · 17/02/2017 12:22

Great news mummabubs!

And that's just an awesome auto correct glitter lol

mummabubs · 17/02/2017 12:28

Thanks everyone! And Glitter I was really confused when I read wedding in your original post but assumed it was my baby brain!! 😂

ppleasebob · 17/02/2017 12:33

Hi all!

Found out yesterday that we're expecting baby number 4!

Only came off the pill in January! Had some extremely light bleeding the other week for over 8 days and assumed it was my period, but two positive tests put stop to that idea Grin

Haven't told anyone apart from DH - going by our BDing days I'm due the 17th October.

Really excited but dreading any negativity that tends to come with large family announcements Confused

Kirsty8333 · 17/02/2017 12:54

Just been to see the midwife this morning and have been given a booking in appointment when I will be 10 weeks. She said they don't arrange scan until that appointment so will not have much notice before I go for my 12-13 week scan. Feels like ages away. One positive is I got my early scan through the post this morning which is this Monday! I'll only be 6+6 so I hope the can see a heartbeat

confusedat23 · 17/02/2017 12:55

Mumma great to hear that everything is ok with lottle bubbabean... how many weeks are you if you don't mind me asking?

Ovia has just switched to the pregnancy app for me and its amazing to see whats going on day by day... can't believe i can say i'm 4+1 today... IM SOOO EXCITED! Lol
