nh101 · 21/09/2007 11:29

I got BFP this morning six months to the day after my MC, only 12DPO but so happy. Please pray this one holds on!!!! I am due on June 1 according to OV calendars so have the pleasure of starting this thread.

Anyone else out there or am I the only mental person who tests this early?

Hello all. Could do with a bit of advice, actually. I've had a rough cold since sunday, which has included a really chesty cough. I've now got a stitch like pain running across the bottom of my stomach and I'm a bit worried that I have either pulled something or there is something more sinister wrong. I've mentioned it to DH but I'm trying not to go on about it. It's really bugging me. Do you think it would be worth a visit to the EPU to maybe get checked out? Or should I wait and speak to the dr (God knows when I'll get an appointment to see him).

I'm not sure what to do and although I'm trying to stay calm, I can feel myself getting into panic mode.

josey · 17/10/2007 14:22

NH not my DH think its systensaddict my Dh I hate to say gets up before me when he is home and does all the housework, it sounds bliss but anything I do is wrong and he re does it he has a little OCD though wont addmit to it then who am I to complain

josey · 17/10/2007 14:23

Lazylou can you phone the MW at your clinic?

Lazylou · 17/10/2007 14:24

I am without my phone today. left it in friend's car after uni last night and I don't have a house phone either.

Lazylou · 17/10/2007 14:25

Maybe a little sleep would help. Trouble is, I have no way of contacting anyone and DH is at work.If there is soemthing wrong, I don't want to leave it too late IYSWIM

LoRayningNewtsAndFrogs · 17/10/2007 14:40

lazylou sorry to gatecrash, have you tried posting aboutt his in the pregnancy topic seperately?? I'm from the april thread and from what I know you should probably be ok, but otehrs may know better than me and non-ante-natalers dont seem to pop onto the antenatal threads, but they would naswer in the rpegnancy topic.
Hope everything is alright for you.

systemsaddict · 17/10/2007 14:53

Yes it was me complaining about dp nh101 not josey, but sage advice anyway which I will be following this afternoon - things improving now though after lovely lovely ds decided to have a 3+ hour nap!! I did bestir myself to take him to the park this morning, though v. difficult in my pit of gloom, it knocked him out and I have reaped the rewards with a nap myself and feel much better.

Lazylou you may well have just pulled something, ligaments are already slackening off at this stage and it's easy to cause slight strains and sprains, but if you're worried I'd say speak to someone medical, even if just to put your mind at rest - LoRayning's suggestion is good. Hope all is OK, let us know!

Rolf · 17/10/2007 15:03

Hope you're feeling better Lazylou. Pain at the bottom of your tummy sounds more like things stretching or a bit of a pulled muscle, especially if you have been coughing.

Systemaddict - hope your DH is out of bed now! I get very grumpy about that sort of thing! I am feeling crap too. Exhausted and intermittantly queasy. Pretty grouchy too - not much fun to be with really! I could easily spend the whole day in bed. I imagine people looking at me thinking "...and someone got YOU pregnant?!"

We have decorators in at the moment and I'd have thought the paint smell would make me feel sick, but I can't get enough of it!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 15:20

Just a quicky, not had chance to read any of the other messages....just wanted to add myself if that's ok?

Wow, that feels so real now. It's weird as with ds I knew I was pg before I was even late as the symptoms were overwhelming. This time I'm tired, hungry but not really sick or anything, just watery mouth a lot and tingly boobs but nothing major. Oh well, suppose all pregnancies are different and as long as all is ok, I'd rather not be ill (of course) with 4 under 5's to look after (I'm a childminder)

I've got the Dr's on Monday and going to push for a dating scan and see what they say (did I say this already??? [dreaded forgetful hormones]) As my cycles have been from one extreme to another since I came off the pill and hardly what I'd call normal periods, I want to check. Also panicing about twins (very very strong family history plus my very good tarot reader told me I was having a boy and a girl and that's the twins that run in my family [gulp, this can't happen to me]).

Anyway, best get on, toddler isn't having her nap like she should and the rest need snacks plus the kitchen is a tip!

Anyone else having lots of wetness down below??? I keep feeling like I've come on and it scares me. I had a mc before ds and it made me hate my pregnancy with ds and as I didn't want to get attached, think it contributed to my PND and I don't want that to happen again!!!! How do you stop yourself worrying???

Oh....and.....remind me what we're not supposed to eat etc!! (feels like a lifetime ago that I was pg)

nh101andhertwinbeans · 17/10/2007 15:34

Ooh BSL - I hope it is twins!!!

Sorry Josey - must be the pregnancy brain kicking in!

nh101andhertwinbeans · 17/10/2007 15:34

I notice Laughinglil has 3YO twins - fab! She can tell me what to do

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 15:42

Oh, congrats on your twin beans. I'm afraid having twins will REALLY mess things up for us as it would mean a BIG drop in income as would mean having to give notice to a mindee I know we'd manage and IF it was twins, I would get used to the idea HOWEVER I'm hoping to just take a few weeks off like a holiday rather than maternity leave otherwise we can't afford to keep this house, live etc (and it's not a big house before anyone thinks that!). Oh....I'm not going to think about it til I've had a scan...too scarey!! If it wasn't for dh earning low wage making me need to earn as much from childminding, I'd LOVE twins. It would just REALLY put pressure on us right now.

I can't believe I've already got a tummy.....I got stared at by the manager at pre-school today - looked right at my tummy Just hope she was thinking I'd just put a bit of weight on.....I can't have parents finding out yet!!

Right, I really should get on shouldn't I!

nh101andhertwinbeans · 17/10/2007 15:58

Whatever happens I am sure it will be for the best! Good luck at your scan when the time comes

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 16:01

Cheers, I know, I'm a firm believer in what happens is meant to happen - I'm just scared! lol. I've only known for 28 hrs, think I just need a little more time to get used to it!

dylansluckymum · 17/10/2007 16:14

WOW a lot has happened in the past few days while i've been unable to get off the couch/out of bed! mil had to come up to stay yesterday morning as i was heaving all day! it was horrible but she spent the night and i got to sleep until 9.30 this am (i can't even remember the last time i slept that late) and it made today so much easier. still really nauseous but not actually ill so that's a bonus!

CONGRATS NH101!!!! twins that's insane and yet so special, i hope it all goes really well for you. be interested to hear what breastfeeding is like! i struggled enough with one!

mich10 - if the friends you're going with aren't the friends you'd want to share the pain of a problem with if god forbid there was one, then you could always go with the antibiotics excuse. certain antibiotics are particularly averse to alcohol and can make you really sick so....

welcome to everyone who's just come on, i hope you all have enough symptoms to not be worried but not so many that you feel terrible!

Upsidedowncake · 17/10/2007 16:46

Congrats NH101 Wow!

And Looney, [waves]

Congratulations to everyone else. Back to work now.

Results of HCG tests tomorrow.

debinaustria · 17/10/2007 17:00

BSLooney - I've also had the "wetness down below" I think it's perfectly normal

Deb

flosspot · 17/10/2007 18:20

Wetness down below an understatement, Deb and others....seems to be the only symptom Ihave left as sore boobs and insane hunger have gone. Now worried am no longer pg!!!!

Hello to new bumps, of which there are several.

HAd loads of other things to say but they've all gone out of my head...DH away tonight as has a trial in Walsall tomorrow....am feeling very weepy without him. How pathetic do I sound?

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 18:25

[waves] at Upsidedowncake

Glad wetness is ok, few people said the same which is good but doesn't stop me checking!

Well, according to the online calculators, I'm due between 20th and 27th June. Don't know when due to cycles being a week difference in length. Dh's birthday is on 27th and he already shares it with his twin brother and said he'd quite like to share it with DC too (oh, my dh being a twin has nothing to do with my chances of twins....my family had non-identical twins and he's an identical)

Lazylou · 17/10/2007 18:37

Thanks for all your messages, I had a sleep and feel a bit better, well at bit less panicked .

BSL, I too have a tummy already but it is more at the top than at the bottom. I can't fit into any of my jeans so am now left with combat trousers and tracky bottoms all day, everyday. This is good for work, although I'm not roling around the floor as much as I used to but not for when you want to go out somewhere nice.

Have already had my GP appointment and am now waiting for the letter to come through with my scan date. I really want this to be soon. I'm 7 weeks, 5 days today so am hoping I won't have to wait too much longer.

Upsidedowncake · 17/10/2007 21:07

Good luck Lazylou - quite nice to have a tummy. It makes you feel properly up ze duff.

Looney - sorry I missed the wetness thing ... possibly tmi, but hey, while we're on the subject, my dh says I 'taste' different as pregnant. In fact he says he knew I was pregnant before I did.

pepperpots · 17/10/2007 21:23

Um.. is there a reason i have been taken off the list

Upsidedowncake · 17/10/2007 21:38

I've just looked back. It looks like lots of people were adding themselves last night - and perhaps there were some version control issues. I've tried to cut and paste the versions together. Sorry if I've left someone off.
