June 2010? Goodness am I the first!

[ScaredOfEverything]

Hello everyone...

Had a positive test this morning, suspect due on 3rd June. Gulp! Very surprised as DD is only 9 months and it took me 2 years to conceive the first time around.

Anyone here to join teh long wait?

XX scared

Oh Clare. That is awful. My pal had a missed miscarriage betwwn her two other (healthy) pregnancies. Very sad.

I am on meds, not that they do much good though! Thanks for sympathy. I am just feeling very sorry for myself, but really shouldn't given Clare's situation.

Thanks and it's OK Nicky don't feel bad, my friend had HG with both her pregnancies so I have an idea how bad it was. I hope it stops for you soon.

Loon - I've been watching this thread like a hawk for your news today. I am so very sorry. Take care of yourself.

ClareDeLoon I am sorry. Are you OK? If you want to 'talk' feel free to post here.

I am just back from a night at the hospital with dd2 (3) who has a concussion. Strangely, I felt no sickness from the time she bumped her head at 4:30 pm yesterday until she was released at 2:00 pm today. Does extreme stress suppress the sickness?

So sorry clairedeloon

Claire,

So sorry. Look after yourself - I've had a missed miscarriage and found the period before it resolved itself quite stressful, along with the sadness associated with a lost pregnancy.

Really, it seems we can't win, doesn't it? Either we're feeling crap because we are pregnant or desolate because we're not: when do we all get to the sunny uplands of the second trimester?

claire,i dont know what to say. i am very upset for you. go easy on yourself. so shit.

Claire - so sad to hear that Can't think of anything that doesn't sound like a platitude, but thoughts are with you.

Crikey, this thread really brings home how lucky anyone who manages to carry a baby to full term is.

Nicky - hope the sickness eases soon, sounds horrible.

so sorry clairedeloon i hope you're being looked after well at home

had my scan wednesday and showed 8 weeks 2 days.they said all they can really do is check the heartbeat and size at the moment ive got to wait until my 12 week scan for them to check things are going ok.

we told our two ds's wednesday.ds1 who's 8 is over the moon.ds2 who's 7 is excited but unsure of how it will effect him regarding time with me etc, bless.giving them both extra tlc at the moment.fingers crossed we will make it to the 20 week scan when we can take them with us and show them the baby.

i feel sick all day everyday and the only drinks i can seem to stomach are fizzy ones. a bit worried they're not that good for me though.

still going to be knicker checking till after the next scan and now getting nervous as ive got a consultant appointment middle november to discuss my birth options after previous difficult deliveries/shoulder dystocia.there's no way im going to give birth vaginally again but i need to find out if they will c section me or not.the midwife thinks the consultant will agree going by my notes but will just have to wait and see.sounds ridiculous that im less nervous to have a major operation/long recovery than a vaginal birth doesnt it.hopefully that will make them realise just how bad ive been effected by the previous births

has anyone else gone through this?/have any advice?

hope you all have good halloweens. xx

Hi Claire, so so sorry to hear your news. Really hope it all works out in the future. You must be devastated and I feel really awful for you. Wish there was something I could do to help. Hope you have good friends in RL to talk to.

I may be the next to remove my name from this list. spotting early this morning has turned to bleeding...
What a week.

Claire so sorry to hear your news, thinkin go of you at this difficult time.

Cadmum fingers crossed for you!

Very sorry to hear your news Claire.

Fingers firmly crossed for you Cadmum. It seems like you've been in this position so often .

All fine here. Saw midwife yesterday, and now have to arrange my scan for as close as I can guess to 12 weeks, and also arrange GTT blood test for 12 weeks. Am expecting to get gestational diabetes very early, as I did last time.

Cadmum

claire so sorry to hear your news. My thoughts are with you.

Cadmum keeping everything crossed for you. x

cadmum thinking of you and keeping everything crossed.

mumandlovingit No personal experience, but have friends who have been through similar experiences and have been allowed caesarians for subsequent births. I think so long as there's a legitimite reason for it you shouldn't have a problem, but it probably varies a bit between consultants. Hope your consultant takes your concerns seriously.

I'm still feeling sick, sick, sick. Looking forward to feeling better in a few weeks.

Its been so long since I posted that the thread had gone from my "I'm on" list. Though there is not much news from me to even bother posting - I'm just crawling off to bed early most evenings. I'm just so tired all the time.

So sad to hear that some of you have been having a tough time. I hope you are all getting the support you need from friends and family.

Am off to eat the remains of the Halloween chocolate. Had enough sweets for 30 kids, but have only had 20 round so far (seemed like more), so lots of mini mars and milky ways to gorge on. I promised I wouldn't eat for two this time but that's gone out the window already. I justify it to myself in the fact that I'm not getting my usual wine calories

Claire I am so sorry

and cadmum, am thinking of you, everything crossed x

Thank you everyone for keeping everything crossed...

No more bleeding yesterday afternoon or today so I am symptom spotting.

I am not sure that I feel sick enough, that my boobs hurt enough and exhaustion must be eliminated because I haven't slept properly since dd2's night in the hospital...

positive thoughts to you cadmum.

gibberingginger i like your way of thinking

Had a lovely weekend as it was my bday yesterday,however,today,i have the worst nausea ever,all i have eaten so far are a handful of grapes and 2 satsumas,i feel so rotten,i mean i hate moaning about it cause symptoms are a good thing right? but i just feel a little upset because i feel so rubbish. rant over

Littlerobbo, if you can manage to eat something, you should. An empty stomach often makes the nausea worse. I'm currently living on smoothies ( the new green innocent one ), hard boiled eggs ( yuk ), crisps and satsumas. Massively craving dry roasted peanuts. Am unsure about whether I should really be eating peanuts, but I'm going to anyway, because I really really fancy them, and the list of things I can stomach eating is so small at the moment, every little thing counts.

I'd had an horrendous fluey cold on top of morning sickness, and spent the last four days in bed. Thank heavens for a friend looking after the children, half term came at a very bad time!!

Cadmum no news is good news? Am still thinking of you xx

Let me just tell you all that my not-so-d-H is being an utter NOB. Have had kids all half term and managed, then had v long lie in all weekend and done nothing due to sick kids, he is stomping round because "I have done nothing but lie around" and getting pissed off if I ask him to make me a sandwich- you know when the nausea is so bad you can't even smell a piece of bread, but if presented with food you can eat it? I am utterly furious with him

I'd be furious with MrSaucepanman too, hope he sees the error of his ways soon.

I'm here to have a moan as I'm feeling very sorry for myself. DD is miserable as she's teething and has a cold, DH and I both have colds too and I'm sick and exhausted. DH is being lovely though and actually went to the supermarket this morning which is a small miracle.

saucepanman, men can be so bloody insensitive sometimes my dh is on good behaviour at the mo,hope it lasts!

i have managed to eat a curly wurly [hmmm]

Saucepanman I would not be happy with my dh if he dared to make similar comments. Mine is in Spain this week so I would kill for someone else to make me a sandwich and I just have to imagine that he would.

I am also hoping that no news is good news. The nausea seems to be picking back up. Super! Just what I wanted. I guess that I can't win since neither situation is fun...
