Sorry to hear about the sickness @PurplePoppySeed! Hopefully it's done nice and early!

I thought that @Fattycowagain, seems very odd but will ask tomorrow

Thanks @millsbynight, that must have taken ages! I think I'm either 15th or 18th January depending whether I use ovulation or last af!

chocolateshortcake · 08/05/2017 21:24

Wow that list is huge!! Who mentioned a secret fb group? I'm up for that once We're a bit further along.

I am also feeling positive. I am imagining maternity leave mostly!! I already can't wait 🙈
However am also obsessive poas-er (I had stashed quite a few so just working through them, won't buy any more!) it's quite nice to see the instant lines. Have also booked an early scan at a babybond place because I can't bear the thought of waiting 8 more weeks. Last pregnancy I had no idea when my last period was so when I found out i was pregnant I was scanned to get an edd.

WLMcI · 08/05/2017 21:27

Well done millsbynight! Was just thinking we needed a spreadsheet or something but am too inept to do one of those lol!

Sorry to those starting to feel ill, especially those of you only in week 4 Confused I'm just getting little waves of nausea but they can usually be calmed by sitting down and munching on something--I've had to split up my meals into several smaller ones or I would end up over-eating big time! Hope it doesn't get worse for any of us; it's so hard to hide especially at work! Luckily my colleagues all know about my MC and so they are very tactful and would never make jokes about "oh feeling queezy, you might be knocked up eh?" I'm sure they'll guess but that's fine, long as they don't ask directly (which they won't)!

ImBreakingBad · 08/05/2017 21:33

That's such a great list!! My EDD is 18th of Jan according to Ovia Grin.

I've just spent 20 mins watching child birth videos (strange aren't I). So hope I make it to that stage! There's nothing as beautiful as welcoming a new human into the world x

WLMcI · 08/05/2017 21:34

Oh yes, the reason I was posting in the first place: I've been having trouble with digestion and I'm going to try this wee video specifically for helping digestion in pregnancy. A couple others mentioned they were having the same issue so I hope it helps!

Fattycowagain · 08/05/2017 21:34

I want to set up a very very very secret Facebook group, but need at least one person to join before I can do so! Anyone who is interested, could you please pm me?

Maybebaby2 · 08/05/2017 21:42

mills brilliant thanks for doing the list must have taken ages, so exciting to see with all the edd's in order!

imbreaking nope not strange at all, I've been watching back to back episodes of one born every minute! Absolutely magical and I can't wait for my turn.... remind me I said that when I'm in full labour!! 😂

Kitcaty · 08/05/2017 21:42

Hi all. I got my bpf yesterday! Today I am 5+1 and my edd is 7th Jan. This is my first, all very exciting! I'm also nervous as don't feel pg yet other than very sore boobs. I phoned the doctors today and they've made me a midwife appointment for 8th June. I'll be nearly 10 weeks then, seems crazy to have to wait so long. Hope you're all feeling ok

Fattycowagain · 08/05/2017 21:45

mills, brilliant list! I would be January 10th as well, going from last period.

StylishDuck · 08/05/2017 21:56

Brilliant Mils thank you!

Usernamegone · 08/05/2017 22:00

Fab list Mills

pebble82 · 08/05/2017 22:05

Fab work on the list mills

Also up for a secret fb group once further along. I'm still in touch with my first MN group (Oct 14) and really value their friendship. In fact, I don't think I could parent without them! One of them is here too 😀

ndo4000 · 08/05/2017 22:08

Amazing work mills!

My EDD is 13th Jan.

SJ1989 · 08/05/2017 22:10

Milsbynight that's brilliant! Feels a bit scary/exciting seeing me in that list!

Got the midwife tomorrow so hoping to find out a bit more about how things will work with me having two wombs but only one cervix.

flossyfloss · 08/05/2017 22:10

I'll join the Fb group fatty cow Smile

Maybebaby2 · 08/05/2017 22:14

wlmcl great video thanks for sharing, I will definitely try it. I have trouble with digestion anyway without throwing pregnancy in the mix so will give anything to help a go!

PurplePoppySeed · 08/05/2017 23:02

Thanks guys, yeah I'm not looking forward to the next 7 weeks if I'm this nauseous already, actually being sick would probably feel better!
What an awesome list! So many of us in it together!

PurplePoppySeed · 08/05/2017 23:04

On digestion - I've been adding chopped prunes to Greek yogurt or porridge (so I can't taste them) + eating dried apricots as a snack & it's worked a treat!

itsgoingtoofast · 08/05/2017 23:05

Thanks for that digestion video. That's always been a real problem for me in my previous 2 pregnancies. Hopefully it will help!

I called to get my bookings made today but accidentally got put through to the epas instead where I had a chat with a lovely midwife and while I was on explained a bit about my history and previous MMC. She said normally they would only offer an early scan after 2 losses, she would bend the rules for me. So I'm booked in for 25th when I'll be 7+5 for a bit of reassurance. I'm so pleased! She also gave me the number for the booking line too lol. Got my booking appointment when I'm 10 weeks and my next scan at 13 weeks! All seeming very real now

itsgoingtoofast · 08/05/2017 23:09

I also meant to say- in case it helps anyone else....

I bought pregnacare last week and took it as soon as I got it. I felt so nauseous and faint after it, for hours. I had to just lie down, I couldn't function! I was really panicking that was my symptoms kicking in and I was wondering how I was going to cope. The next morning I didn't take one and had a quick google.... apparently they have that affect on a lot of people. I'm not just taking folic acid and vit d separately and feel much much better.

May have just been me but thought it was worth sharing!

PurplePoppySeed · 08/05/2017 23:14

I genuinely believe pregnacare conception stuffed up my cycles when I first started etc, wouldn't touch it again with a barge pole! I'm just on boots folic acid with vit d & vit c with zinc

PurplePoppySeed · 08/05/2017 23:14

ttc not etc! Stupid phone!

rabbitstail · 09/05/2017 00:29

That list is loong mills! Must of taken ages. Put me down for 8th...thanks!

I'd be up for a Facebook page once I've got a bit further along

welcome and congratulations SandyAmazon And Kitcaty

usedtorun · 09/05/2017 05:57

Great list mills, my EDD is 7th Jan, I've name changed from sarahmags so can just be swapped over! Thanks!

Symptoms wise have sore boobs which get worse through the day, plus waves of slight nausea. Wasn't sick at all last time so I'm hoping this pregnancy will be the same.

Scan booked for next Monday, I'll be 6+1 then so will hopefully see something and in the right place.

5+2 today

Fattycowagain · 09/05/2017 06:36

I'm all out of tests now, but very happy with that dark line!

January 2018 babies!
