@bakingdemon yay! Pleased to hear it. We're due on the same date 🙂

Leliana · 26/06/2018 21:28

@17caterpillars1mouse So sorry to hear about your previous miscarriage. Fingers crossed for you. Drop one of us a PM as and when you do feel ready to join the Facebook group and we'll sort it out xxx

@jennac hurray! I have never seen the point of New Year so delighted we'll have something proper to celebrate. We have already decided we must always keep Christmas and birthday presents completely separate so their birthday feels special. And maybe birthday parties at their half birthday in the summer

jennac · 27/06/2018 08:06

@bakingdemon wow!! I love how much you've thought this through!! Lovely plans. I think I've just been assuming that it'll arrive a few weeks late if I'm honest! But was very happy to have that due date when the lady doing the scan told me - it does sound like a very special day to be due on! What a way to welcome in the new year 😀

jellyfish2210 · 27/06/2018 11:20

@bakingdemon that was exactly what I was thinking to do. My original due date was 1st of Jan and DH and I decided that if baby does come then, then we will have a half birthday party in the summer. That way their actual birthday is a family affair

17caterpillars1mouse · 28/06/2018 12:49

Had my 12 week scan today. All good. Official DD is 6th Jan

Velvete · 28/06/2018 15:03

Congratulations @17caterpillars1mouse !

I had my 12 week scan today too, all went well and have a due date of 12th January :)

jennac · 28/06/2018 15:15

@Velvete @17caterpillars1mouse yay!! What brilliant news 😀 congratulations

Leliana · 28/06/2018 18:29

Hello everyone!

I'm 9 weeks, due end of Jan. My first, planned and desperately wanted but a high risk pregnancy and I'm on my own and feeling very on my own if that makes sense?

I'm also panicking that something will go wrong. I had an early scan and all was good but that was 2 1/2 weeks ago and I've not been feeling so sick these last few days which feels bad. But I've heard that can be normal as the placenta begins to take over hormone production?

So really I just want to say hello and chat to ppl at the same stage.

Thanks

Hi @racoonbaby I’m 9+1 due 31st Jan.. im also high risk, due to having a low bmi

I get really bad nausea around midday which comes and goes and it’s driving me mad.

I have my dating scan on the 10th.. I’m worried they’ll push my date back as the one I have is a guess by the midwife due to me having really irregular periods and we just went by what the digital said and she added some weeks 🤷🏻‍♀️😬

I feel sorry for my DH as my mood has been all over the place this past week 🙈

isitthatsimple · 30/06/2018 21:13

Hi is ok if I join?
I'm actually due on the 6th of February according to my dates but I have a history of huge babies arriving early (and I will probably have to have another c-section).
I'm really struggling with the nausea and tiredness this time. Also my boobs are huge, it's crazy! Going for my first midwife appointment on Friday and hopefully get my scan booked, so excited Grin

Lynsey19 · 01/07/2018 22:52

Hi All. I’m due the 4/01/19 with first baby. Very excited but also nervous. We got sent for a scan the day after our booking in appt, which ended up being a bit early, so I have another scan on Tuesday. Can’t wait. Would like to join the Facebook group too if possible! Smile

Leliana · 02/07/2018 12:49

Congratulations Lynsey19! This thread is fairly quiet as we all post in the Facebook group. PM one of us a link to your Facebook profile and we will add you.

Hi again,

I'm now 10 weeks. I've got my booking apt with the midwife on Wed, I'm both excited and nervous. This is all new to me. Having heard that some have got a scan quickly after seeing the midwife gives me hope - I'd expected a really long wait and I want to see my little one to check it's ok...

It's so good to find ppl going through this too, hearing others feel sick (and I have huge sore boobs too), helps. But I'm also feeling a bit down sometimes. I'm ashamed as this is all I've wanted all my life. I think really it's that I'm tired and I know I've been a bit grumpy with various people so I'm feeling guilty about that... anyone else not on top of the world all the time? Sorry to ask.

Thanks

Afternoon all!
12 weeks today with a rainbow baby after a loss in March. Finally feeling brave enough to join!

Emmy2018 · 02/07/2018 18:02

Jumping in late as I am almost at the 12 week mark. Due with my second on the 16/01 and currently on maternity leave with my little boy who is almost 10 months. I have a feeling I will be very sleep deprived in 2019 Grin

Had a scan last Thursday but was only 11 weeks so back in again next week and can't wait to see my little miracle again.

jennac · 03/07/2018 11:46

Hello to the newbies and congrats!!! 😄 hope scans all go well. Second trimester officially starts for me tomorrow as I hit 14 weeks. Suddenly seems to be going really quickly!

Relaxbaby · 06/07/2018 09:44

Hi ladies, please can I be added to fb group, I've sent liliana my details. If not the right person, please let me know. Find fb easier to use then these threads. Thanks, x

Ash1992 · 06/07/2018 18:13

Anyone found a way to deal with the bloatingness and gas? Seem to get it every evening not too bad during the day. I've tried peppermint water but it makes me sick.

Bubba84 · 08/07/2018 10:44

Can anyone tell me how to join the Facebook group? I find fb easier for conversations to flow.
I'm 14 weeks due 3rd Jan with our rainbow baby ☺️

laurs2309 · 08/07/2018 18:04

If you send me a pm with a link to your Facebook profile I can add you to the group. I'll have to add you as a friend first but you can always delete me afterwards 😊

Bubba84 · 09/07/2018 09:37

Thanks that's me sent you a pm 😘

agarwalh · 09/07/2018 11:56

Is the FB group closed? I haven't shared the news with friends yet and don't want them to know through FB.

laurs2309 · 09/07/2018 18:37

Yep it's closed and secret so no risk of it giving the game away :)
