After a bit of cajoling from some friends (some of whom I hope can join me here soon), I decided to take the plunge and start this thread.

Anyway, I have just found out I am pregnant again, got a BFP on Saturday 23rd at 12dpo, which gives me an EDD of 3rd November 2008 (or the 4th, depending on which calculator I use). This is my 4th pregnancy and will be my 3rd child. I am super excited and a little scared & nervous after a previous missed miscarriage.

I hope I don't get too lonely waiting for more BFP's to roll in! Please come and join me.

My dh has made me feel incredibly guilty. He came back from the shopping with a bunch of flowers, a new baby changing bag and a multipack of baby vests . How can I stay mad?! Until the next time that is, pmsl!

My dh also has his garage retreat. It's actually his work office/music studio and he spends more time in there than he does in the house, lol! I am fine with that, I can spend my evenings doing or watching what I want and not feel bad. We do make a point of having a few evenings where we meet in the lounge and watch tv or a film together. We watched Heartbreak kid last night, very funny and not entirely what I was expecting!

Heartmum2Jamie · 25/03/2008 13:54

Perhaps call your midwife (of you have one and she will advise you of the best place to call?)

hi guys, just wondering if i can join you? Sorry if i sound rude but dont have the time to read through all 37 pages of this thread!!

I am 5=1 weeks pg with number 2. have a 20 month old ds. Well i THINK im 5 weeks. Gp is sending me for early scan as i COULD be 9 weeks as i obviously didnt have a period this month but last month i was spotting for quite a while then came on and straight off again whereas normally i come on for 5 days then off...

Id like to be 9 weeks but my hear is saying only 5 weeks!

I've spoken to a nurse at the fertility unit and she has told me that it is normal in 9/10 pregnancies but I need to get a blood test done tomorrow morning just to make sure that I am not having a m/s.

Oh god... how am I going to sleep a wink tonight....

how am I going to get through the day at work?!!!

lackaDAISYcal · 25/03/2008 14:15

i hope things are ok dungungirl.

Hi mad4mybaby and welcome. Not selfish at all, this is a very busy thread. I'm sure you'll catch up in time

lackaDAISYcal · 25/03/2008 14:17

cross posts there dungungirl.

can you go home? the day is nearly over after all.

Pinkali37 · 25/03/2008 14:17

Right Duncangirl, you did the right thing. So you and I won;t be sleeping tonight. Yours for blood test mine for scan so erm... count sheep? I wish we could drink ourselves to sleep but even that's impossible. There is no point me saying keep positive because I keep getting told that and wanting to scream but yet I seem very good at passing it on to others . All we can do is pray !!!!! If you don't believe, this is a good time to start. xx

Pinkali37 · 25/03/2008 14:18

Hi MAD, sorry forgot to say HELLO... hope you are well. Add yourself to the list.

dozymare · 25/03/2008 14:19

Dungun call your nearest hospital in london....tell them you are bleeding and your history.....I was bleeding with DS2 and slightly exagerated how bad as I was very very worried and needed to know (as lots of us have done) St Thomas' are great if you are near theree.....

DungunGirl · 25/03/2008 14:25

how crazy is this...I am dying for a wee but I don;t want to go to the loo...

I don't want to see it again...

Pinkali37 · 25/03/2008 14:30

Well you can't not go for a wee (especially if you are anything like me).

lackaDAISYcal · 25/03/2008 14:31

oh dugngun girl not crazy at all. ikewym. Is it bright red blood or browny coloured?

I second the vote for trying to get seen at an EPU and getting a scan. even if you go for bloods tomorrow, there will be repeat bloods and a wait between the two. At least ith a scan you will know exactly what's going on.

DungunGirl · 25/03/2008 14:54

Gave in...went for a wee....

Thank god...the little bit of bright red is now more like browny-pink and rather diluted.

I hope this means that I don't need to worry.

Maybe I had good reason to be angry at DH yesterday when he dissappeared off in ASDA and I ended up lugging round a 14kg 3 year old, wriggling to no end! I told him I shouldn't be carrying that sort of weight about.....grrrr

fingers crossed it stops, fingers crossed it stops..

lackaDAISYcal · 25/03/2008 14:57

dungungirl, it could be an implantation bleed and nothing to worry about at all. easier said than done though. i'm glad things have settled a little bit. you should get yourself off home and put your feet up.

dozymare · 25/03/2008 14:59

2nd that.....go home and pout your feet up......you could always get a private scan for about £60 if you can't wait for the bloods.....

Pinkali37 · 25/03/2008 15:04

I concur ... go home. I am so bored today and my mind keeps wandering off what I am supposed to be doing. Just had to ask DH what he would lke for tea. He is having lamb and the thought of cooking it is making me feel a bit yuk. I really fancy spicy tomato pasta AGAIN. Mmmmmmm

Mmm bagel with spicy tomato sauce.... YUMMY... I have gone right off the smell of bleach (not that I used to sniff it or anything ) Put the dishcloth in some diluted bleach and just went down stairs and the smell was just awful. Bugger, there goes my obsession with bleach!

mad4mybaby · 25/03/2008 16:07

im ALWAYS hungry at the mo but never know what i want to eat! So annoying! Already off tea and coffee! Good thing though! Waiting for the sickness to kick in!

Pinkali37 · 25/03/2008 16:09

I've been drinking decaff since October so havn't had that sudden urge to go off tea and coffee however has just discovered that I am not bothered about it....

mad4mybaby · 25/03/2008 16:16
