Anyone else out there? Just got faint, but definitely there, BFP.

Due 1st April, according to those dodgy due date calculators.

Oh tictac, I'm so, so sorry to hear that. Thinking of you, and hope you manage to get through this okay, and get the healthy pregnancy that you deserve.

TicTac · 17/08/2008 19:09

Thanks SB. I am a real believer in fate and everything happens for a reason so I am sure I will get another BFP when it's my turn. X

bethdivine · 17/08/2008 19:39

Hello all, ok if I join in? BFP a couple of weeks ago, but been offline until now. Think am due around the 7th according to LMP date, but cycle not that predictable, so will see what scan date says.

Hope you are all feeling ok, am shatered and feeling huge already, but not too bad on the sickness front so far (fingers crossed). My waist is up 4" already, I'm never going to keep this to myself till 12 wks if it carries on like this!

This is DC no2 for us, have DS 18mo.

OddEyes · 17/08/2008 20:12

So sorry for your loss tictac,come back and let us know how you are doing won't you.
Welcome new bfp, not keeping up with names sorry - add yourselves to the list.
am in bed, my general location all day, apart from a quick trip out to church in the morning. Feeling rough - like foxy had a busy day yesterday and now paying for it. Doesn't bode well for going back to work in september!

surprisenumber3 · 17/08/2008 20:30

Hi - am still struggling to come to terms with this pg, especially as DH doesn't really want it.

Am going to talk to GP in the morning, I can't stop crying at the moment.....and now I've started again as I've noticed I've gone off the list

Sorry, stupid pregnancy hormones

OddEyes · 17/08/2008 20:39

oh suprise! add yourself back in! i am going to go and look for you! Hormones make it so difficult to work through your emotions. we are all in the same postion though so cry away.

StorkExpectedInApril · 17/08/2008 20:50

surprise - hope you feel better soon. Do you think your dh will come round to the idea of dc3 anytime soon? Perhaps when you have some scan photos, it will make it 'tangible' for him? I hope so because early pg is a very hormonal time and I guess his support would be good for you right now.

Does everyone else feel huge already? Not in a weight-gain sense but in a hormonal, pre-menstrual sense? Because I do!!!

StorkExpectedInApril · 17/08/2008 20:51

OddEyes · 17/08/2008 20:59

ha! same time

surprisenumber3 · 17/08/2008 21:02

thanks oddeyes, am on lots now.

Am trying to get DH to come round. He keeps saying little things that make me think he has, then he holds his head in his hands and says 'we can't have another child'.

I can see where he's coming from but I know we would cope, we would have to, it's not an ideal situation I agree, but it is a situation we are in and we have to deal with it.

I resent him so much at the moment, I can't even talk to him.

I've just added myself to the list too, so you're on it again surprise! I hope you are feeling better soon.

mathsmummy27 · 17/08/2008 21:10

surprise, you need love and support right now. He will come round. It's so much harder for them as they don't have the whole 'it's part of me' thing, and often think of pregnancy as something which women 'do'. My DH is pleased (planned) but still has the odd head in hands moment...makes me want to kick him in the offending testicles...

StorkExpectedInApril · 17/08/2008 21:12

surprise, your situation sounds really tough emotionally atm but although you don't feel like talking to your dh atm, sometimes the solution lies with more talking, not less? Why is he so concerned with having dc3?

LittleMyDancingForJoy · 17/08/2008 21:17

I would say give him some time surprise - it takes a lot longer for men to process the idea of it I think, because they don't have the hormones kicking in! Just give him some space and see what happens.

have been feeling awful all week hence not posting - completely exhausted by sister's visit and then DP away and DS being, ahem, let's say 'challenging'!

DP back now, I spent most of the weekend in bed, and life is improving. Even managed to vacuum the lounge, which is quite a feat

Tictac - so sorry to hear your news, hope you're taking care of yourself x

Clairedaz and Tictac - I'm very sorry. I hope you're both back on the antenatal boards very soon.

lixanismapolium · 18/08/2008 08:33

Morning everyone. Thought I should show my face as I have been missing for a while. Everything is fine, just been really busy at work and at home and finding it difficult to keep up with you guys!

Sorry to see that we have lost a couple. Just found out that one of my friends had a m/c last week at 11 week. Avoiding telling her my news just at the moment as I'm scared of upsetting her all over again.

Have just spent about 40 minutes reading through and catching up on how you all are. A lot of ms out there. I feel fine, except I feel like my heart is going a bit quicker than it should .... any ideas??

Have a lovely day everyone, and keep nibblng those ginger biscuits! Also finding that ginger and lemon tea is working quite well.

hopeful1 · 18/08/2008 09:29

Clairedaz and tictac - so sorry to hear your news....look after yourselves xx

LuLuBai · 18/08/2008 10:40

Sorry to those who have had bad news over the weekend.

I treated myself to a good bottle of wine and a selection of unpastuerised cheeses after my MC last month and wrote a list of things I could do while not pregnant (e.g. diving, horse riding etc) but got pg again before I had even managed to dust off my jodphurs. Hope all goes well for you both.

Feeling utterly wretched so am optimistic that this is a good strong pregnancy. My mother is coming to stay tomorrow afternoon though. Dreading her coming. Am feeling ratty and tired and bloated and sick and she will expect to be looked after, taken around on excursions, cooked for etc etc. I don't want to tell her I'm pg until at least 12 weeks. sigh

FlirtyThirty · 18/08/2008 10:59

Can I join?!

I found out yesterday that I'm PG with my first baby! I'm in total shock - it was only our second month of TTC!

I'm due 27th April according to GP, but 24th April according to me (I have a short cycle)!
Either way...a Spring baby if all goes to plan...

Anyway...hello to everyone else!

Flirty x

DungunGirl · 18/08/2008 11:12

Hi ladies

I have a question... I am 6.5 weeks with no.2 and I have a 3.5 year old son who just insists on doing things like:

Pressing on my lower tummy ( using it as a platform to put all his weight as he climbs over me! )/ INsisting on being carried down the stairs / kicking me in the gut when playing or lying on the bed...

I am worried to death after I miscarried around this time in March.

Can anyone put my mind to rest that they were fine even with a young child doing all the things to them that the books say not to!
