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

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

Sorry to those who have had bad news.

Hope the rest of us are feeling ok and not suffering too much yet.

LuLuBai · 18/08/2008 11:37

Hi DungunGirl - I don't have a solution but the same thing. My DD clambers and bundles all over me all the time too. She loves to rough and tumble and bounce around on my tummy. I just roll her off all the time and hope she doesn't feel too rejected. I make a big fuss of her in other ways.

surprisenumber3 · 18/08/2008 11:45

I've gone off the list again

Is this telling me something??

lixanismapolium · 18/08/2008 12:15

Hi Dungungirl and LuLuBai - again, no solution but the same problem. I think we just have to be as careful as we can. Pretty sure my DD will be very careful as soon as she knows, but don't want to tell her until 12 weeks as I know she will be heartbroken if anything goes wrong.

My worst problem is her razor sharp elbows - got one in the boob a couple of times yesterday! Excruciating!

Surprise - I'm sure no-one is telling you anything, just stick yourself back on again and hope for the best!!!

salstars · 18/08/2008 13:18

Hi Flirty - welcome on board. I'm a first-time too (due 11 Apr) - hope you're not feeling too rough.

I'm slightly worried as I don't really feel pregnant - my sore boobs have settled down a lot, although still bigger than usual!, but no other symptoms - should I be worried?

lixanismapolium · 18/08/2008 13:19

Congrats Flirty and welcome!

lixanismapolium · 18/08/2008 13:22

Salstars - don't be worried!! Just be grateful and enjoy not feeling sick whilst it lasts!

FlirtyThirty · 18/08/2008 13:36

Hi Salstars and Lix!

I have NO pregnancy symptoms at all! So join the club, Salstars!

GP makes me 4wks exactly, but IU know I have short cycles (25 days), so am pretty sure I'm actually 4+3. Very early days. In some ways I'd quite like a few symptoms (maybe not the sickness though!) so I didn't think I was imagining the 2 plink lines on the test...I remember my mum saying she didn't suffer MS though, so maybe I'll be lucky too.

I'm flying long-haul this weekend and away (with work) for 3 weeks. I know that travel at this stage is not great - but nothing can be done so will just have to home my little hitch-hiker will stay put.

My DH is still in shock. I'm not going to push him for a gushing reaction. WE had decided to TTC so it's not like it's unplanned, but it did happen very fast for us, so I just don't think he was prepared for the news. (I was shocked myself so have a good degree of sympathy!). Told him last night...will give him a few days to come to terms with things...don't want to pressure him to be gushing...it's a big change.

I feel like I shouldn't be posting here as I can't quite believe I'm PG! Very weird. We are not telling anyone til post 12 wks scan...so thank God for thios website!!!

Flirty x

aprilitisthen · 18/08/2008 14:03

hi folks - can i join too? have changed my name just now as am a bit in shock too and know some people in rl on mn iyswim, so would rather stay incognito just now.

Have had a quick skim but quite a long thread already so will try to catch up as we go along.

flirty - am feeling the same as you just now - can't quite believe it - we had decided to ttc but were just not trying to prevent this month rather than ttc but bfp on friday. dh is very pleased - i am a bit more nervous that we now have a deadline to work to for saving up etc.

ds 12 months just now.

EsmeWeatherwax · 18/08/2008 14:41

Hello,

Can I join in here? Just got a faintish bfp, due 27th or so of April. This is my second baby. Kind of knew I was pg as had absolutely no symptoms at all, same as last time! Although have been achingly tired. Have been skimming the thread for a wee bit, its very long! WIll try to catch up more...

aprilitisthen · 18/08/2008 15:14

hi esme - congratulations. i am new on here too but am bored at work so sitting looking at things i shouldnt be.

I have the tiredness too, but other than that - nothing. Am still bf ds (12 months) so i guess i wouldnt notice changes to nipples/boobs as much as maybe otherwise.

BinkyB · 18/08/2008 15:48

Hi ladies

Newbies in the group - welcome, great there are so many of us! Baby boom.

I was feeling nothing until last week when I suddenly went off all food (most unlike me) apart from dry pasta. How depressing. So if you're not having symptoms like Flirty and Salstars ... enjoy it while it lasts, I wish I had and had not wasted the nice time worrying that this meant I wasn't preggers!

My doc said me feeling so rubbish is because of the likelihood (posted previously above) of me carrying twins. Still wish you were feeling a bit sick?! Ha ha.

Finally flirty my DH and I were ttc for 2 years and he still looked like a rabbit in a headlight when I told him. He's over the moon now but I suppose it takes a while to sink in for them.. especially as I hadn't bothered him with all my 'am I? aren't I?' wonderings over the previous week, so for him it came out of the blue whereas I'd been thinking about it for ages. Sure he'll be very happy - just maybe in his own little way!

Anyway ladies am rambling again - can't get down to work. Time for a dry water biscuit I think

hopeful1 · 18/08/2008 15:52

Hi,

I have got my scan tomorrow, I am 6+3 today and am hoping to see a heartbeat. I have been having period type cramps this afternoon which is making me a bit nervous not sure what that is does it sound normal?? Still really anxious as you can hear. I have sore large boobs and have gone off meat!! I am really tired and just want to slepp all the time. I will update you tomorrow once I have had scan....fingers crossed for a heartbeat everyone!!

EsmeWeatherwax · 18/08/2008 16:05

Binky, I am very much enjoying no symptoms, having had horrible ms right through my last pg. Praying I don't get it again this time!

Hopeful, that all sounds very hopeful! Cramps I think are quite normal, you're stretching and whatnot to accommodate beany. Good luck with your scan tomorrow!

Hello all and newbies. Got booking appt wed, does anyone know if they will scan if I ask them? Just to put my mind at rest really. Feels like a good'un (very sick) but did a test two days ago and faint (silly as first one so strong) and I've had some pain.

StorkExpectedInApril · 18/08/2008 17:29

Welcome to the newbies - I was new myself on Saturday and already, there are at least 3 or 4 newer ones than me!

Well, after three consecutive days of eating a Dark Whopper and Fries for lunch, I suddenly got the URGE to eat Sugar Puffs....I finally tracked down a box and have had one (or two) bowls then when eating them out of the palm of my hand (think of a horse eating sugar lumps!) wasn't satisfying enough, I took to plunging a desert spoon into the box and eating them that way

That sounds terrible, I haven't eaten Sugar Puffs since I was about 12yrs old!

Anyone else eating oddly?

StorkExpectedInApril · 18/08/2008 18:29

A dessert spoon even!!

tristaleejac · 18/08/2008 19:24

Hi everyone, I'd like to add myself to the list if that's ok. Got my BFP last week I'm now 5 weeks and 2 days. Excited but terrified! Due date is 18th April. Feel sick all the time already and boobs are killing me! Taking 1 day at a time as have had MC previously, but must stay positive and keep hoping things will be fine.

Hi everyone, and congratulations to the new BFP's.

surprise, how are you feeling today? Did you manage to chat to DH about it at all? I am sure with time it will all work out, and it will be like this time never happened.

JenJam · 18/08/2008 20:15

went to epu today as had some light pink bleeding yesterday which has since turned to what i would call periody type cramps and bright red, 'cut finger' type bleeding - sorry if tmi. At the epu. I had a transvaginal ultrasound and saw 6+3 week old sac healthy pregnancy, dr/sonographer seemed positive as all seems normal for gestation, apart from the light bleeding which has since turned to heavier/bright red.

I had to wait for 3 hours, and entertain a 2.5 year old for that amount of time. All this left me feeling really sick and dead tired by the time I got home (8 hours spent on this little task, including seeing GP for referal letter!).

I have to go back on the 29th for another scan, but period pains seems to be worsening so not holding out much hope.

Anyway, feel a bit PMT-ish and yearning for a nice hot bath. Will update the thread if anything conclusive happens. In the meantime, I'm wishing you all the best and congrats to all the newbies

Jen

mathsmummy27 · 18/08/2008 22:01

Jen, lots of love. Sounds like you need to take care of yourself, my fingers are crossed for you. Hope your bath is lovely
