Due in December 05

[HappySecret]

OK, it's way too early to test yet, and I'm probably tempting fate here, but I've got classic morning sickness, the dates are just about right, and I'm pretty sure I'm pregnant. And I've always wanted to start one of these due in threads .

And if the blue line winks at me in 10 days time, then I'll come clean and post under my real nickname.

Any one else?

afternoon all
hope u are all well and beans r behaving...I am fine apart from a bit of a rough night with ds. He lept crying and holding his tum n head n mouth saying oww...bless hes only 18mths but i think it was his last molars. We have been up and out to the local shops today and i feel huge...my jeans r not fastening so currently resigned to my tracksuit bottoms..lol If all goes well after i have a scan then i will invest in some new stretchy clothes..lol
take care and have a good day

hi all i tested yesterday and we had a bfp so i am due on the first of jan but i am bleeding slightly its more redish water than blood and im not sure what is going on can anyone help.?????

Congrats on you BFP Expressmummy
I'm sorry but I can't offer any suggestions about your bleeding as this is all pretty new to me but I'm sure someone will be able to offer some advice for you.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who is too big for their clothes already Mishi I think I'm off to a running start with the weight I put on before the m/c.
I need more elastic

anyone showing early, sagging early or putting on weight early - have you seen these?
these click to find the jeans... gosh they look great! i know i know, not cheap.....
I have tried 'cost cutting' on maternity clothes before but because you have to wear them ALL day EVERY day, you really end up hating them. so this time i'm sticking with more expensive but gorgeous and well made things.....like above jeans. and have eye on few more items from that site, and isabelle oliver's site too. once have good scan news am investing!! will tell dh they are an essential

sorry meant to say click ESSENTIALS to find the jeans!

Morning all...no sickness yet,yipieeeee,Sorry expressmummy i have no advice either,have you got an appointment with ur doctor?
How is everyting and did you all have a gd weekend?

That site is great DQ. Might have to take a trip to Kensington to go to the shop (not forgetting a credit card!!)
Let me know if you find any other fab sites.
No sickness for me yet either Ebbie so keep forgetting that I'm pregnant
Off to celebrate DPs birthday today. Lovely room booked with it's own hot tub, I just can't go in it now!!! I'll have to sit by the side stuffing myself with birthday cake. No champagne either, so it's grape juice for me!!
Hope you all have a good day & speak again tomorrow.

Morning all - had a very exciting weekend. My best friend had a baby yesterday so I'm off for a hospital visit today.

Congrats to the newbies - and welcome to the club. Also huge congrats to Golds - those results must be such a weight off your mind.

Dramaqueen - I know exactly how your feeling at the moment - it's horrible isn't it - feel free to come here and vent at any time. I am constantly thinking that this pregnancy is already over which is becomming really wearing!!!! I'm too frightened to even do another test incase it's negative. I'm 8 +1 today and I haven't had any morning sickness - the odd bit of nausea but apart from that nothing!!!!

I'm starting to get a sinking feeling

No sickness for me either - but then I didn't get any with ds, so perhaps I'm going to be lucky again.

The downside for me is that being pg seems to do nasty things to my metabolism. Put on loads of weight with ds - and three and a half years later have still not quite got rid of it all. This time I'd gained 7 lbs by the time I got a positive test which is a bit worrying as I'm already (post ds) on a maintenance level of about 1100-1200 KCals a day - that's just to stay the same not to lose any. So I can't really afford another dramatic metabolic downshift or I'll end up either huge or living on a permanent diet of salad.

Formes is another one which does some good quality (though not cheap) Meternity stuff. Or Tiffany Rose .

george, have MANY great maternity sites, brace yourself!
sweetheart, oh no, dont ge that sinking feeling yet. keep your chin up, we just dont know until someone medical tells us its all over, and that hasnt happened has it? so we are STILL pg and doing well, do you have a scan date coming up? and m/s is over rated, trust me! my bf never gets m/s and has two gorgeous girls. i usually get m/s esp with my girls, but each pg is very different so who knows this time?
today i am 5+2. and not feeling sick but not feeling v healthy either!LOL abit, as my dh says, 'woozy'.
we walked six miles yesterday -sponsered dog walk!- and my hips are killing me today. i dont usually do anything like six miles! the dog is still sleeping as well LOL
I can now officially say my scan is next week!!!eek!

forgot to say george have fab time for dhs b-day! dip toes in hot tub and feel great! you pg girl you!
oh yes formes v posh but lovely stuff, will link some more later too.

quick question, Does anyone wake at 4-5 o'clock starving?? I had to get up and to have a boiled egg this morning and the same friday morning.. Plese tell me i am normal!

Starving all day till sickness kicks in - evening time. Had 3 sarnies already today - before 10am.

Avoiding the scales, and if anyone tells me I only need an extra tablespoon of food a day till the last trimester - I'll sit on them!

Another gate-crasher from June lurking to see how things were going for Sweetheart.

Minnie1, I am so pleased for you!!! Seeing your name on here brought a tear to my eye, you were so lovely and supportive to everyone on the TTC threads. All the very best of luck for the next few months.

Sweetheart, sorry you are feeling so stressed at the moment. It's completely understandable (I was the same after 2 m/c) but no nausea isn't a bad thing at all, honestly. It's impossible not to worry though - hope you manage to get an early scan to put your mind at rest.

Golds - great news on your blood test results!

Sorry for interrupting, will leave you all in peace now!

DQ thanks for the positive vibes!!! I'm sure everything is OK - it's just panic and nerves setting in.

I haven't got a scan date yet - 12 weeks scan should be the end of May. I've got a hospital appt on Wed and I'm hoping they will scan me then. I asked the mw and she said they might but we aven't heard anything either way yet so fingers crossed.

On the June thread we did a list of all the maternity sites we could think of - I'll try and find it and post it here.

morning all
i am feeling awful...i either feel sick or have stomach cramps and need to rush to loo..arghhh with all this should loose at least 2 stone..lol

SH hope u get ur scan on wed hun fingers crossed

minnie...always feel starving even when im sick..lol

George hope ur dh enjoys his bday a u like dipping ur toes in the hot tub

Express hope ur appointment goes well

DQ i can completely understan the highs n lows...i still need to stop testing just keep thinking its either not real or not going to last..but a little part keeps seeing my little xmas bundle...

take care all

Here's the list - although I'm sure there are more. I did type all the links and then my computer crashed

Anyway, they are roughly in order of most expensive to cheapest. HTH xx

goldenoldie,

Mrs W
I know its brilliant to be here FINALLY!!!! Hope your keeping well?

Joining you with another BFP (why didn't I look on antenatal, thanks Nemo and everyone)
I think it will be December as last AF end March but my skirts are tight already and I feel that fluttery, sicky feeling and sweat a lot at night
V Excited!

Whats your due date Ninah???? I'll add you to the list.

And CONGRATS!!!!!

ninah - night sweats, I get them too, I thought they were linked with menopause not pregnancy? Anyway, it got so bad one night I had to sleep on a towel cause my sweat has soaked the sheet.

Afternoon everbody

I am totally exhausted, I put myself ages ago on the reserve list at school, if they were ever short of helpers and dinner ladies, got a call today, absolutely great fun but totally knackering running around a playground full of 4-7 year olds helping out taking Y2 kids to the local church tomorrow morning.

Also feeling quite on edge today as I can't find any Happy Hippos anywhere, I have been to 4 shops today and they have all sold out. I will have to send dh out to Tescos tonight.

My jeans are getting tighter and I am starting to look overweight - PG or Happy Hippos ???? I'm not sure. Other than my cravings annoying me, I'm fine and well.

lol!!!!

Withdrawal symptoms from Hungry Hippo's - now thats something I've never heard before

There like pringles, once you start you cant stop, they have to be eaten in two's

ROFL!!!!!

Nice one golds!!!!
