Hi, I'm also on the June thread but officially my due date would be 4th July 2009 so thought I'd better set up a thread for all these summer babies.

Got 3 BFP's yesterday although technically I am only 3+2 weeks. Would love to symptom spot with fellow early testers. Surely there must be more of us out there !! I can't be the first

Hi everyone, I'd like to join you please, although I will still be on the 'not counting my chickens' side of things until about 12 weeks. I have only told my parents so far and I will be telling my sister when I see her tomorrow, but that's all for now.

I have also graduated from the 'ttc for July' so I know some of you from over there - well done to everyone.

According to the due date calculator I would be due on 4th July next year (just like funkybumps).

My dd is a July baby, but her b/day is later in the month, and she will be 5 next summer. I was really after a June baby this time, altho' I realised after a year of trying that beggars can't be choosers. Having said that dd was 8 days early so there is still a chance of a June baby after all!

Saz78, I am feeling things in my abdomen also, like it's tighter and firmer than usual (I'm talking inside here, under the flab!!) Also still a bit crampy, with the twinges going down into the tops of my legs sometimes. But that is mostly when I'm sat with my legs curled up. Because of this was convinced a couple of times, before I tested, that AF was on her way.

Wating2Exhale, I hope everything is ok with you. I bled numerous times in my pregnancy with dd, particularly in the beginning. Created quite a bit of worry but things were always alright.

got a faint pos on a cheapy test this morning and I am now 2 days late. Should I test again to get a strong positive or should I just book in with the dr anyway.

surprisedbutpleased · 30/10/2008 14:03

Hi, I got a faint positive on an e-bay cheapy test this morning 2 days before AF due so hoping baby will stick fast. Feeling sick at different times during the day, chronic indigestion, weepy, dropping everything and totally off coffee but it's been 8 years since last pg so can't really remember symptoms last time.

Due date calculator suggests due date of 13th July.

Good luck to everyone

QueenFee · 30/10/2008 21:14

Tested again anyway now a strong positive
guess you will see me around here a bit then!

susanmary · 30/10/2008 22:03

Dear everyone, thanks for replying and putting my mind to rest as a first time novice. Can I also ask you another question? I used to go the gym and am finding it really difficult to get consistent advice. Websites say exercise like jogging is fine if you did it before but the gym is saying that I can only swim. Id like to keep a bit fit but there are no swimming pools and am wondering what kind of exercise is OK? Any advice....
Thanks xx

hi all, great to see some new names. This thread is getting big already

Went to see the midwife yesterday who gave me a due date of 1st July but with me having a c-section it will be between 1-2 weeks before this date so it should be the end of June when I actually have the darling baby.

Still saying it's a July baby though because technically that's when he/she should have been born ( hope this makes sense )

Susanmary, as for the exercise, I was given a booklet yesterday that has a page on exercise and they say to cut down on the amount you do but don't give it up completely and also to speak to your doctor who will advise you on whether your current regime is safe to carry on with in pregnancy.

bedhed · 01/11/2008 12:44

can I join too please? BFP on Monday, due 5th July feeling happy and apprehensive! already have 1 DS, 2 but can't remember much from last time...

LargeGlassofRedBlood · 01/11/2008 22:50

Hi all, this will be first pregnacy with mumsnet

Due around 8th July, I think

This is number 4, DP's 1st

My head feels like its on a rollercoaster

MILFintraining · 02/11/2008 11:01

Hi all,
Can I join? I got a BFP on Friday (my dad's 60th birthday!).

I'm 33, Irish, but married to English man and living in UK.

It was our first month trying so I'm absolutely gobsmacked.I'm finally understanding the rationale behind all those unasked for drunken confidences from my mother and her sisters.

Due date looks like between 8th and 10th July.

It will be my parents first grandchild. My IL's have 3 but they will be 16,14,and 12 when this one arrives, so it will be a novelty. Mind you, my MIL told us when we got engaged she didn't want any more summmer babies as June and July are so expensive for her. I'm 30th June, DH is 25th July,and the 3 grandkids are all June and July.

Unfortunately I suffered a seizure a few weeks ago, so can't drive till October 2009 which is a complete pain.
looking forward to chatting with you all.

hobnob57 · 02/11/2008 15:59

Well can I tentatively add my name to this thread as I got a BFP today, due date probably around July 14th? I'm not getting too excited since I've been disappointed before, but feel that this one might be a go-er. Congrats to all you guys.

My, what a bloated, windy business this is!

funkybumps · 03/11/2008 11:30

hi everyone, how are you all doing ? Well I think my morning sickness has well and truly started. I felt dreadful all day yesterday and again today. Didn't really get sick at all with DD so was hoping to be lucky this time around aswell.

QueenFee · 03/11/2008 13:31

Hi sorry you not so good. My sickness is patchy so holding up well. However after a stressfull weekend and carrying DS a lot my hips are hurting so worring SPD is about to start again, but I think it was just overdoing it at the weekend.
Been to Dr and booked in (v rude man but thats another story) so have 1st MW appointment on fri.

Saz78 · 03/11/2008 16:23

Hi everyone,

Congratulations! Hows everyone feeling? Im absolutely terrified at the moment. I have these waves of sheer panic which im hoping will wear off. hopefully im not on my own feeling like this? Im due to go to the doctors on thursday but am not sure what to expect - could anyone tell me? xx

bedhed · 03/11/2008 20:07

Evening everyone,

Ticking along ok here, though feeling pretty tired, moody and a little sick.

FB sorry to hear you are feeling awful. I had some morning sickness with #1 and really hoping it will not happen so much this time.

Saz I felt pretty terrified last time especially as DS was unexpected. The docs for me was a bit of a joke: 'I'm pregnant. OK have you tested. yes. OK I will book you in with a midwife. Thanks, goodbye' I expect if you have medical conditions it is really important to see your doc, otherwise seemed a waste of time for both of us!

muppetgirl · 03/11/2008 21:34

Hi all, can I dip my toe in as I have only just done the pregnancy test as were due on tomorrow?

I have ds 1 -4.5 and ds 2 1 this coming wed.

LMP was 24th sept so I worked out my due date would be 7th July.

No symptoms as of yet and can't wait to get to 12 weeks due to missed miscarriage in between my boys.

LargeGlassofRed · 03/11/2008 21:49

I all, congratulations
Symptoms so far

Wind

Bloating

Increased sense of smell

Sore boobs

tiredness

Hunger

No sickness yet but this did'nt start till 6 or 7 weeks with the other three,
Am really worried about the sickness and praying it won't be too bad this time.

muppetgirl · 03/11/2008 21:56

Hi Largeglass...

I was in a FOUL mood last week but apart from needing the loo every 2 mins I seem fine at the mo.

MamaMimi · 03/11/2008 22:04

Well all I can say is I know now why I didn't realise that I was pg with dd until I was about 7 wks 'cos I don't feel much different to normal at the moment.

No sickness, slight nausea but not very often, feeling tired but that's nothing new (I could sleep for England at the best of times!). The only thing I've noticed really is that, although I might get hungry, there's nothing that I feel like eating, nothing I fancy iykwim, and some things I just can't bear the thought of eating.

Last time I couldn't stomach alcohol before I even knew but that hasn't happened yet this time. Not that I'm drinking any (gave up when ttc) but I don't heave at the thought of it yet.

The only other thing is that, obviously, I haven't had a period, but still feel slightly crampy/uncomfortable in that area, with a tinge of backache.

Think I might do another test in the morning just to remind myself about what's happening!

Having said all that, it's been a pretty tough week, and being pg hasn't really been the focus, as dp's mum died last Mon which was very upsetting. Then we found out I am pg the day after. So there's been so much going on to do with that, culminating in the funeral today, that it's been hard to really take on board the +ive hpt. Wouldn't know whether hormones are making me emotional as it's been an emotional rollercoaster of a week anyway.

fifi20 · 03/11/2008 22:38

Hello

Can I join too! Got the BFP last week, hadnt even been trying - in fact only did the deed once last month . DH in shock but happy (I think). Due date 5th July I think...but we will see. DD 2 yrs in 2 weeks. Happy about a summer baby for a change! Full time WOHM, so wont have much time to think about my pregancy during the day - will let mumsnet be my indulgence at night (when I am doing the work I couldnt get done in the day). Dont feel any different except sore boobs - same as last time. Good luck everyone!

Saz78 · 04/11/2008 16:29

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the low down & reassurance Bedhead. I can imagine my docs appointment being like that too, they are a useless bunch at the best of times!

Large glass of red (love the name) im so glad you mentioned wind as a side effect - i thought it was just me . Im feeling ok (apart from the waves of panic/terror), starting to feel a bit wobbley & pukey in the mornings and the cramping seems to have stoped now, just have aches in my hips which sometimes go right down to my toes. Also im very over sensitive...but DP would say i always have been! Id love a big fat curry right now.

mum2boys2girls · 04/11/2008 17:45

Hi all feeling sick and exhausted but apart from that ok Its just hard to believe there is a little bean inside!! these early weeks really drag and I bet i don't get my 12 week scan till after Xmas so feel like its along wait for reassurance that 1st scan brings!!!

Mij · 04/11/2008 19:10

Well, seems I've landed. Due 11th July, already feeling slightly queasy so wondering if 1st T will be as nauseous as the first time around.

But I'm sure it didn't start this early last time. Or feeling a bit spacey. Anyone else feeling this weird at 4wks3?

bedhed · 04/11/2008 19:33

Well tiredness hitting big time. Early nights from now on for me. Twas the same last time except I didn't know why! Also sense of smell keen and slight nausea in the evenings. Quite envious of those who are not feeling so much yet...

Mamamimi so sorry to hear about your bereavement. Hope you and dh have some time to grieve. I have had an awful year in that sense so really feel for you.

fifi20 - we are in the same boat! my DS nearly 2, this one (fingers crossed) due 5th July.

M2B2G - I was wondering about the scan date too. I think we are a bit unlucky for it to fall over the holiday should really get myself booked in with a midwife to find out but it all feels a bit early!

woollyjo · 04/11/2008 19:35

Hi Ladies,

5weeks + with an early booking in tomorrow due to 2mcs this year.

Windy and bloaty - my god! even my dd (22 months) has noticed!

MamaMimi - Sorry for your loss, it is really tough. We lost MIL 4 weeks before dd was born for me that hardest thing was the "just missed" thoughts going through our heads. I found talking about her lots helped, laughing about her funny ways etc and keeps her close to us in a comfortable way.
