Anybody else due in NOVEMBER 2009 :-) PART 2

[Koumak]

Ladies, it seems that we do not know when to stop!
Here is another thread. Let?s hope it?s just not the tread that moves that fast - let the weeks fly!
I jsut have to work out how to link the old one now!

Amyboo - so sorry to hear that you're having to go through this. when it happened to me i remember the midwife at the EPU telling me that i'd be back with a healthy pregnancy soon and i remember thinking 'how does she know?, she's giving me false hope' etc. I should have put trust in all her experience that she knew what she was talking about. Anyway what i'm saying is try to keep the faith, hard i know at this point. Hope you're getting all the support you need.

Glad to hear of all the positve scans. Mine was fine too. Coouldn't believe how clear the little inch long baby was wriggling around. Had a lovely scanning lady who was quite overcome by how active it was for 9 weeks. Hoping that's a good sign.

Feeling positive after my scan (we'll see how long that lasts) i tempted fate and bought ny first piece of maternity clothing. Lovely boot cut jeans in Gap sale - bargain at £15!!

Hope all the ladies feeling poorly start to feel better soon. Still trying to get to know everyone and finding it tricky to keep up with you all sorry - this thread sems to move at super speed!! Good luck to all with scans this week

11.20 am, still no midwife, ds going berserk. I guess they weren't kidding about the local midwives being overworked...

11.56am still no gas man here! I'm cold. I've got the fire on. MIL has gone to fetch DS2 from nursery for me.

Hi everyone, back from my scan and everything was good, so relieved. Official EDD is now 8th November. Amyboo I keep thinking of you and hoping you are doing ok.

Just popping in quickly,
amyboo sorry to hear your horrible news, I'm wishing you lots of luck for the future.

Congratulations to all those with positive scan results!

I was feeling really positive after my scan last week but feel really worried and down now! This time around emotionally is different for me and I'm really not enjoying it!
Anyone else feel like this?

Go dating/nuchal scan on 6th May! Woot only 8 days away, not bad!

They did not have the notes yesterday but due to urgency, when they arrived after I called (midwife had just dropped them off) they just booked me into a tight spot they had there and then bless em!

I will be exactly 12 weeks!

Ah ball. I am going for my first acupuncture session in an hour, and I am feeling very much like I need to throw up . I have to drive into cornwall which will take (me, at last) half hour, in rush hour traffic. I hope I make it!!

For all those who had scans today, Congratulations.

Hello there ladies - still trying to catch up with everyones news - Amyboo how awful for you; that must be just the worst - seeing the first scan all ok and then ... oh how terrible. I'm sure it is all of our worst fear!
I guess we are all emotionally charged and hormonal .
Had to tell my boss on Friday as I was "trapped" in the bathroom at work all morning, and missed the 2 meetings that I had called and come in for.
Ohh - the Garlic thing - oh my word - that made me laugh so hard I peed a little!

Had booking in with MW yesterday 9+4 and they didnt listen to the heart beat - some excuse about how its too low down and sometimes they don't find it and then the mums panic... which makes sense... but then I bought one of those heart beat monitors on perfectlyhappypeople website!

Tummy is now massive - and all I can eat sucessfully is chinese plain noodles! And lucozade original. Baby will come out lumionus orange!
My body is rejecting anything fresh or nutritious... anyone else in a panic about not being able to eat healthy?

And is this normal... grumpy when sick, but grumpy when not sick as then I am worrying that something is wrong! Anyone else with that?
Sorry about all the ME ME ME posts but I am a little self-centred right now...

Oh got scan date for 15 May. Seems like MONTHS!

pedalmonster - all I can eat at the moment is bread and cheese and pasta. And shreddies.
I am hoping the sprout just takes all it needs from the stores already there as I usually try to eat healthily. It is worrying a bit though, as I read somewhere that the first weeks are oh so important.

I think I just resolve not to worry, we'd be locked in a darkened room somewhere otherwise - so many things to think about!

My scan is not until the 18th, so I beat you on that

My main comfort food at the moment is cream cheese and ketchup butties. Yum.

Pavlov I hope you make it to acupuncture ok and I really hope it helps you too!

My scan's on the 18th too. In the afternoon , no less! Torture!

Hello all

Just popping in quickly to say hi - busy at work today so no time to mn. How rude!

Am 12+4 today and feeling so much better. The nausea barely registers now so do hang in there. pavlov did the acupuncture work? Hope so as it was a godsend for me.

Amyboo - thinking of you lots, hope you are getting lots of love and support x

Congrats to all those who have had scans. Had ours today and all was fine - had convinced myself otherwise so took a while to sink in, but feel much happier now. Next one booked for 23rd June (there's always something to focus on )

Haven't felt sick for a few days now so there is light at the end of the tunnel! Can even read the posts about cheese now!!

pedalmonster - all i'm eating is toast, potatoes with brown sauce and cereal. Can't stomach anything healthy at all. Asked the midwife yesterday as i too was worried and she said not to worry about it all. Are you taking a pregnancy multivitamin? I'm taking one that's got folic acid in it too. Makes me feel a bit better that i'm at least getting some vitamins and minerals into me.

To those with bad MS. Mine was really bad and they were really dark days and I found looking after DS and doing my job (a childminder) really tough. I can now see light at the end of the tunnel. I'm 13 wks tomorrow and only feel slightly queasy if I don't eat first thing in the morning. I'm sure for most of us, after 12 weeks the sickness will start to come right

Hi, not posted for a little while but have been trying to read as much as possible.

Sorry for the bad news we've had on here.

Congratulations to those who have had positive scans.

I'm feeling more hormonal than normal this week. I am trying to stay positive that everything is ok, but in the back of my mind I can't stop thinking that it was in my 11th week that I miscarried last year and that the same thing could happen again. I have scan booked for next Tuesday but this week is going so slowly so far!! Still feeling quite sicky, but possibly not so much as before which of course is another reason for me to worry!

Sorry for the self centred post just needed to write down how I'm feeling.

BeckyBL I am sorry to say your new fave sandwich made me gip!! But I have some pretty strange combos myself so can't complain!
Been bad with nausea today. Had to leave my literacy lesson and vom in a bin outside. So classy.
Will you please tell me not to be stupid? I am freaking out about this swine flu which was all over the London Paper about how it is going to spread like wildfire through London. I am really panicking... Please tell me not to be a fool...
Fab to all those with good scans today - yay!

Southernbelle - not self self at all, I have had a few that are like that! It is what we are all here for, to support, positive and negative, to hear happy tales of blooming and to hear feelings of worry and anxiety too. I know lots of people are in your situation, and hopefully they will be able to offer some more comfort and reassurance than i can x

Acupuncture - hard to say. I still feel neuseas but hopeful that it will ease from now on. The woman was quite confident that it will be good enough that I might only need the one session! I was expecting a million needles but she only used 4! Lets see how it goes, bloody better work for £45!

dont we have to do something before we hit 1,000 posts or we loose the thread??

southernbelle I know how you feel as I also miscarried, almost exactly a year ago, in my 11th week. It was just before May half term as I had half term to get over it before having to face all my mummy friends with the news. It must be on my mind too as I have been having the most horrendous miscarriage dreams lately, which seem so real.

Oh Katster I'm soooo sorry! I didn't mean to make anyone feel bleugh!!!

Pavlov glad the acupuncture went well and she seemed positive about the effect. We'll watch this space to see how you do!

I think we need a third thread before we hit 1,000. Someone needs to come up with a good name for it

Yes we do someone do something!!!
Beckybendylegs your sandwich nearly bought up my dinner-I used to have that combination when I worked in spain and couldn't afford to put meat or chedder in it!!
So pleased for all of you with good scans-am so jealous!!!
Kaster You are not alone-I had a cough this morning unnexpectedly and thought I had it for about 1 second!! And I live in Cornwall!! So its ok to worry although i'm sure you won't get it!!

Anybody else due in NOVEMBER 2009 :-) PART 3

Shall we just call it this? I'll try and make it-it might not be successful but I'll give it a go!!!

we are over here

C'mon over
