Babies due in AUGUST 2010....

[KayloFireworks]

I got my BFP yesterday, AF not due til Sunday Tested again this morning just to make sure I didn't dream it.

Have been very sick already which is what prompted me to test, also very very tired.

Looking forward to seeing other people on this exciting journey

Possiblenewmum - phew, glad I'm not the only one feeling huge! Was beginning to feel really fed up and wished I'd thought to lose weight first! Seem to be eating my way through morning sickness, so no hope of weight loss for me either! Guess I'll just have to keep active instead - with ds I used pregnancy as an excuse to overeat AND sit on my backside all the time! This time going to stay as fit as possible though - signing up for pregnancy yoga in the new year.

Hope everyone manages to get where they need to be for Xmas - I'm quite glad we travelled a week early.

I don't have many symptoms yet either. Just sore boobs, irritable and more tired than normal. Feel a bit off in the mornings (can't face food until 10ish) but other than that no nausea. Long may it last!!

Lucky you vix! The constant all day nausea is really starting to get me down Have also had my mum smugly telling me how she didn't get sick at all, she was really good at being pregnant

Hello Gang

Sorry for not posting for a few days - we've just moved and have no internet connection yet - wah! Not had a chance to read posts properly, so hope everyone is fit and healthy (and big hugs if not).

So a quick 'merry Christmas' to you all - I shall raise a glass of non-alcoholic wine to you all on the day, hope you don't all feel too rough, and manage to get some festive rest.

See you all in the new year. xxxx

Thought I'd post an update since I went to the docs this morning and got a slightly different due date Hope I got it right booreeve!

Hello Girls,

Big hugs to you ladies that need them, I'm thinking of you.

My McDonalds addiction is in danger of reaching epic proportions - is it bad that when I walk in they don't even ask what I want and make me a Big Mac with no lettuce and extra sauce

My boss had a lovely John Lewis gift hamper delivered from a client of ours - "take the Champagne" she said, "I won't drink it" - no, neither will I, I thought, and I'll be buggered if I'm watching DH slurping his way through a bottle of finest champers on New Year's Eve without me, so I'll be donating it to a deserving friend .

In a display of huge domestic godliness, DH has announced that he will be doing all of the cooking over Christmas (I blame Jamie Oliver), normally I am a complete control freak (yes I have a time plan on Christmas Day), but this year, bugger it, I'm putting my feet up and going to let everyone else do the running about.

My work tops are straining at the buttons now over chesticles and stomach - I can blame the preg hormones for the chest, but at only 8 + 1 the stomach can only be the McDonalds.

Right, I've just spied a Twix with my name on it, so I'm off to see if I can break the record for eating each finger in only 2 mouthfuls!

Have a good afternoon mummy's to be

Have put myself back on. Hope I'm not jinxing things..

Anyway been to the doc and got my scan request sent off. He has banned me from running.. boo hoo.

Oh well anything for a healthy baby.

Liaghen the info I was given at hosp yesterday said 5% chance of early miscarriage once heartbeat has been seen.

I am hopeful

Dibby I am also off for a MacDs tonight- Dh knows how to treat his woman going to see Jimmy Carr live. We were meant to be going to Strada first but due to the fiasco of a weekend we had DH hasn't worked much so we're a bit skint..

Hello everyone - I asked you all to tell me 2 things about yourself and then promptly buggered off (to America) so sorry about that - have had fun catching up over the last 4 pages, and glad to see we have Girlsayearapart back with us - what site does your DH play poker on? - and sorry to hear of the others who have left

I am still ill, with a freakin' cold sore as well (I hate the little fuckers) which I'm trying to not pass on to DD. But America is lovely and warm and Xmas shopping is fun, so all is well.

DH said I officially "looked pregnant" last night. Great. Considering a week ago neither of us knew I was, that's not really good news.

Not sure how much I'll be able to get on here over Xmas and new year - but hopefully see y'all on Jan 4th when I'm back in the UK (scan on 5th).

Dibby during my last pregnancy I literally could not get enough McDonalds. Thankfully our nearest is a drive through so the embarrassment factor was limited! I wouldn't have been at all surprised to give birth to a large quarter pounder with cheese meal with nuggets on the side . KFC was my other downfall, and given there are TWO within 5 minutes walk of my house (south London ) it was disaster for the size of my ass.

I had my first moment when I thought I might actually vom this afternoon. Was slipping and sliding my way up the High Road in the cold and suddenly hit by an overwhelming wave of nausea. Horrid. Has been fixed by coming home and cracking open the Celebrations...

Hi Boobz , hope you're all having a lovely time, despite cold sore. My jeans are starting to get tight, and I reckon I'm only just 7 weeks! We can compare fledgling bumps when you get back.

Sorry can someone put me on the list? Or do I do this myself? Due date 11th August. I am getting superstitious about not being on it!

You can do it yourself, just copy and paste the list and add yourself in the right bit

Hi everyone! Hi newbies and congrats. I haven't updated here lately but have been lurking a bit. I'm now 8-9 weeks I think. The last two weeks my nausea has been much better and energy levels also improved. Today I had a tiny scare. V tiny. It was about 2pm and was walking back to work from lunch with a friend and I had a leak of water, clear, no odour. There must have been 2-3 tablespoons I guess. Enough to soak into my jeans. I called Nhs direct and they said they weren't worried At this stage. But I'm still concerned so am going to self -refer to an early preg unit at my local hospital tomorrow. Hopefully have a scan and find out how things are in there.

Other than that all ok and busting out of all bras.

x merry Xmas

I sympathise. I started bleeding at the weekend - freaked everyone out (including the NHS direct GP and DH as we are snowed in at the moment and can't move the car) but after lots of tests and a scan at the hospital yesterday it turned out to be "one of those things". Baby is fine and now I have a lovely picture of it at 6+4! (and I found out what the +4 means!). Now it makes it so real!

great news luth it's just so scary isn't it.

boobz he plays on pokerstars-if that's who you work for can you send him a beanie hat???! been trying to save enough credits for one for ages! also watches all the tournaments and those irritating poker androids on sky poker.

dd1 out at a party all morning really should wrap some pressies..

Hi girlies - just checking in before i go home to the family for xmas (hoping the roads are ok today!).

Thanks for the welcome comments and reassurance about not feeling many symptoms. I got a bit concerned again yesterday when after a work pub lunch of burger and chips i got a really sharp pain in the left side of my stomach. It went again about a 10 seconds later and hasn't come back so i will put it down to eating such a lardy lunch. Though it was hard not to resist as i've got the appetite of an elephant at the moment and if not careful i'm going to start looking like one too!

Has everyone had doc appts & scans then? When i rang my docs they said unless i had concerns they didn't want to see me until my booking in appt at 10 weeks (which isn't till 12th Jan) and i don't have a scan date yet. I know some of you have had probs and therefore early scans etc but some others seem to have had scans in normal circumstances too?

Two things about me:-

1. I'm a virgo (i like my stars even though i know its rubbish really!)
2. I like hiking and skiing both of which i suspect i won't be doing much of for a while!

Merry christmas to all if i don't get chance to catch up with you in the next couple of days!

What a day yesterday in asda doing my christmas shop really felt rubbish before i went,next thing i know on the floor passed out.They insisted i go to hospital so have a ambulance called felt a bit of a fraud.My blood pressure was high so they keeped me in for a few hours,but on the plus side they sent me up for a scan to check all is ok a strong heart beat and they said 7+1 so a few more days along than i thought.So i now have a guilty DH for not believing how rubbish i felt,and am now on bed rest and getting plenty of sympathy

Hi everyone!

bigmuther65 hope you are ok! Must have been a bit scary. Hope your DH is administering some serious pampering.

possiblenewmum I've just got a letter confirming a booking appointment for 10th Jan, blood test on 26th and scan on 29th. Seems a bloody age away though. My work HR policy says employees are entitled to reasonable time off for ante-natal appointments but they wil only be paid if the company has been informed the employee is pregnant. Guess its fair enough but I was hoping to have had my scan and wait a few more weeks before telling the nosy parkers at work. Might ask my boss to keep it on the low down.

Went out for dinner with friends last night who of course don't know about the bewlerbean
so DH was surreptiously drinking out of both his and my wine glass to make it look like I was on the sauce. He got a bit carried away though and realised he had polished off both our glasses before everyone else was half way through theirs which just made us look like a couple of booze hounds

Its my last day at work today (where I do most of my MNetting ) so my access might be a bit sporadic till the NY. I hope everyone has a wonderful christmas with your families, gets lots of TLC and doesn't suffer too badly from cheese and booze withdrawal symptoms!

Happy christmas

Hello everyone!

Besides sore boobs, I have been eating non-stop. In vast quantities, at breakfast, lunc, dinner. And teatime. At 8 weeks now, and already not fitting anymore into my skinny jeans and finding the waistband on other jeans eating into my waist. Yikes!!! But the pregnancy book says.. 'you are likely to need larger clothes from around 5 months on'.. at this rate I might need new jeans by Jan..

Also had a hard time keeping awake at my desk after lunch - caught myself a few times nodding off at work..

2 things about me

1. Work in the city
2. Love cooking, gardening and long walks

Hello Ladies,

That's it I'm officially finished work until 4th January - yeeeehaaa!

Just need to drag myself to the shops to pick up some last minute bits for DH - we promised not to go over board this year, so I haven't, but I saw 3 carrier bags of presents for me in his wardrobe this morning, so I def have to up my offerings.

The only thing that will keep me going is that there is a huge MacDonalds in town where the don't know me (yet ).

Take things easy bigmuther65, mother nature's trying to tell you to slow things down - take notice of her

Right, will try and log in at some stage over Christmas, but if I don't have a fab time and it won't be long until we can say "our babies are due this year" awwwww.

Thanks luth that was really reassuring to hear. Eerything went well today and we got to see the baby's heart beat on the monitor!

possiblenewmum am also a Virgo and love to check my stars. Baby will be a Leo!

Hi Everyone, and welcome to the new people who've joined since I posted last..

Sorry I've been rubbish at posting - I will do better in the New Year.

I've got an awful lot of discharge - I've turned into a major knicker checker. Have my GO appointment on the 10th January - can't wait.

I've also passed the stage I got to with my MC inJuly so I'm a little more relaced now.

Two things about me-

1. I have 6 sisters and 3 brothers (not planning on recreating that famiy size though )

1. I am a Gemini (baby will either be a Leo or Virgo depending on when it decides to show)

Hope you all have a fabulous Christmas and that next year brings all the blessings you wish for

I'm off to the maldives this weekend on an all inclusive dive boat with jacuzzis on deck! I booked before I found out I was pregnant - turns out I'm not going to be making quite as much use of these amenities as planned!! Even sunbathing is off limits I hear - oh well, serves me right for showing off!

I keep thinking about this time next year and how different it will be for us all..!!

Have a fab Xmas everyone!

I have had a bloody shit night, dh's birthday and i found iam bleeding. Spotting at the moment but when i wipe myself there is fresh blood so not looking good. NHS direct have told me to get an emergency appointment for tomorrow and they have said they can't scan till im 6 weeks. Is this correct, it seems ages to wait, obv if i bleed alot more i know it is over

Oh Poppy.

I don't think that is correct about the scan as when I went in with bleeding I thought I was 4 and a half weeks and they booked me in for a scan the following day.

The blood I had was a lot and bright red but the baby is stil there. I really thought it was over but I was wrong. Don't give up hope.
