Hi

Couldn't see a Feb thread so thought I would start one as am so excited to get a faint but definately positive HPT.

Fertility friend estimates a due date of 4th Feb.

Unfortunately (or fortunately)am off this afternoon for a hen weekend in Barcelona the first holiday in at least a year and a half and can't drink. Ohh well will have to be the responsible adult..... Hence checking to see if up the duff before I went drowning myself in Sangria.

Hope to see some others on here when I get back!!! If anyone cares to join me?

Can I join in please. Got my BFP this morning which gives me an EDD of 25 Feb 09.

Guitargirl · 14/06/2008 19:26

Congratulations to everyone who's just joined .

I feel like I've been bulldozed today. Not helped that have also got a bit of a cold but really knackered and generally hungover type feeling. Think am going to have yet another early night while DP watches yet another game of football...

Hello all. So sorry to those who have lost LOs. I had a bit of a scare yesterday with some spotting, but it seems to have settled down so fingers crossed. I do agree with those who've said the early HPTs are a mixed blessing - gives you so much longer to worry! Thanks to all who gave me reassuring words about my work situation - I guess there's never really a good time as far as they're concerned, and hopefully it won't be too much of a surprise given my age and the fact that I have mentioned that I would like another baby.

Pinktulips - have you tried tiger balm for the headaches? Seem to remember I used it first time round and it did help a bit.

Thanks! Gosh there are so many of us, and February is a short month too...

oooggs · 14/06/2008 20:33

wow laidback - close to me, I am on Cornwall/Devon border!!!

laidbackinengland · 14/06/2008 20:36

Hope everyone is doing OK today. Hve spent all day trying to sort out my unruly garden, which became more unruly the more the kids played in it. Have had some major retchin episodes today - particularly around bad smells. HArd to change a smelly baby whilst retching at the same time. Oh why oh why did I decide to have another ?

laidbackinengland · 14/06/2008 20:38

Oogs ! My DS1 is starting school in Hartland in September...anywhere near you ?

oooggs · 14/06/2008 20:43

not too far in comparison to some!!!!!! We are near Plymouth, but in Cornwall. My ds1 starts school in September too.

So this is also your 4th. How old are they all and which sex? I am so nosey

laidbackinengland · 14/06/2008 20:46

DS1 is nearly 12 and starts secondary school in September, DS2 is nearly 4 and starts primary school in September , DS3 is 14 months ! So the last 2 are the same age as yours. I am sure I will have another boy this time .... I seem to only 'do' boys . My friends has a son of 4 and twins, girl and boy the same age as yours !

LittleMissNorty · 14/06/2008 20:54

Evening all.....I may not have MS yet, but last time I had indigestion for the full 38 weeks....and its back again ....I already have Gaviscon downstairs, upstairs at work and in my handbag

Welcome to all those with BFPs Congratulations!

oooggs · 14/06/2008 20:56

See I didn't need to divulge any of my info now as I have gone back to my normal posting name and you can see my profile - which does need updating photo wise

secondary school in Bideford?

as the crow flies we aren't far apart but the roads to North Devon are terrible, dh has done the half marathon up there and dragged me kicking & screaming round the Tarka Trail

PinkTulips · 14/06/2008 21:23

hello chilledmama did you test early? you seem to be right at the end of the month compared to me and i'm only 6 weeks!

francesrivis... thanks for the tigerbalm tip, i know the health shop in town have it so i might give it a go..... hate this constant headachey hangover feeling.

fruitstick · 14/06/2008 21:43

The father's day card is a great idea. I still haven't told my husband as he won't be back until Monday.

Have lied to 4 seperate friends so far, 2 of whom asked me outright if I was pregnant!

Am quite enjoying being the only one who knows (apart from you lovely ladies that is!)

francesrivis · 14/06/2008 21:53

Glad I'm not the only one with indigestion LMS!

M2Alyssa · 14/06/2008 22:03

I there do you mind if I join and make seven?

I am expecting DC2. DD will be 2 in Sept so a little scared having two quite young kids when my husband works so much and I am also working full time again.

Oh well the next year will be fun.

I don't know why but feel more nervous this time, possibly as know what to expect but also as I do not have any time to relax so exhausted and pregnancy is taking more of a toll!

Congrats to everyone else. Hope to talk to you all lots over the coming months
