Your house sounds fab - I'd love an extra bedroom, it's going to be a bit of a squash for us but probably okay for a little bit. I can't face trying to move in the next 17 weeks and round here everything costs a bloody king's ransom anyway.

Sending hugs to Knitter and hoping for good news.

For anyone wondering about when The Bump Appears - mine did absolutely nothing until at least 16 weeks and even now I can convincingly hide it with a baggy cardi (23 weeks this weekend). And yet the Owlet is apparently on track for dates so I can only assume he's neatly tidied all my internal organs into a corner somewhere - this may explain why I can't breathe when I lean over to pick things up. :)

Wombat33 · 08/04/2011 16:32

Smile Mummya have been saving up for 6 yrs and waiting for the right time to buy (it will be our first house!) so it's a fairly firmly established dream!! I know what you say makes sense though. Am thinking I'll probably end up buying a character place and then moving again (and paying stamp duty etc etc) all over again when I realise the error of my ways Blush

Tunnocks I'm very Envy of your chickens!!! And your house sounds fab. I'm sure you'll soon have the bedrooms filled with little people Smile Good luck for the 12wk scan. And have a kipper from me. Did I tell you I've had LOADS of CM, of all types including so watery I've though my waters had gone?! For days at a time! I recall Nix had the same thing and even went for a scan because she was sure it was her waters but everything was fine. I'm keeping everything crossed for you. Have faith it will be fine!

Owl Grin Grin at the image of owlet tidying your organs away! I was a bit hot earlier in my over-the-bump trous so rolled them down to be under bump, but that means the band sat across my tummy and judging by the v peculiar sensations it provoked, I'm not sure Wombatbean appreciated having his/her space squished Grin

Wombat33 · 08/04/2011 16:33

Any news Knitter ??

MummyAbroad · 08/04/2011 16:48

hrmph! my cleaner hasnt shown up. rearrange this: [Wind sails taken thats out of the my]

tunnocks Envy Envy Envy of your running around outside space - and chickens! I want to move to get a garden, I wouldnt do it now though, it was OK being pregnant and moving last time but I wouldnt want to do it again. I want ONE nice relaxed ( Confused ) pregnancy!

wombat I am in my third year in this house, the first two were OK without a garden, but now it really bugs me, especially now I am remembering how much time you spend at home in late pregnancy early motherhood - it really will help if you like your house a lot!

Hmm

Thanks for all your lovely welcomes ladies. Fingers crossed it sticks this time - seems a long time until the 12 week scan. Feeling pretty ok just a bit tired.

My sister and BIL are visiting this weekend - they are quite big drinkers so not sure how I am going to get away with them not suspecting anything as have decided to till noone (apart from DH obviously) until after 12 week scan this time if I can get there and if I can resist ( I am not good at secrets generally!)

Wombat33 · 08/04/2011 16:56

Jiggle given up for lent?

Mummya Angry at your cleaner!

Me me me whine: I have slept all day. I just woke up. This is what happens when I take a anti-sickness pill. I feel depressed, like I cannot do this anymore, it's probably all for nothing anyway as I doubt I will even see a hb when I work up the courage for a scan. And poor DD, I now have to pick her up and will have to come home and lay down when she will want to play :( I called the dr, they called back, but was sleeping. And I've managed a few more liquids today so the meds did their job. Just can't shake the feeling hopeless and depressed feeling.

PinkFondantFancy · 08/04/2011 18:51

Hmm wombat I have a similar dilemma, I'm looking at houses this weekend as I live in a lovely 2 up 2 down Victorian terrace but there is no parking and can't see how parking several roads along is going to work with a mini person... But I'd also like character and a big garden and an affordable mortgage. One estate agent actually laughed at me when I told them what we're looking for!! :)

tunnocks I am going to fish slap you for googling doom stories, but not for Pre-scan mentalling because that's allowed. I am so going to harrass you for chicken keeping info when I get my mystical new house! You definitely deserve a much happier year this year.

Grrrr about mummya 's cleaner, that is sooooo annoying!!!

dacha hope you're chilled now hun, going back to work on a sunny Friday was a ruuuuubish idea anyway!

knitter thinking of you.

banana how far along are you? If you're more than 7 weeks can you get a private scan? I know you're not keen but the sooner you do it it's probably better as maybe seeing a bean with a heartbeat will comfort you a bit while you're feeling so vile? Have you spoken to your gp or midwife about how you're feeling? Huge hugs nice lady xx

MummyAbroad · 08/04/2011 20:30

hugs for banana I can understand the low mood, I have felt uterly miserable the last few weeks and totally unable to have a normal life. I can say that it has totally lifted now though and I feel back to my old self (can everyone please cross their fingers that this is because hormone levels are evening out and not because bean has stopped growing!) All I can say is that there is a good chance that sicknesss and mega tiredness will not last long, so hang in there!

Hey ladies

Sadly no phone call today so now I have the long wait over the weekend....

Zoo was lovely though.

Ninunina · 08/04/2011 21:20

Sorry to hear you'll have to wait for until Monday knitter

It must be hard, but sometimes no news is good news. Hospitals generally follow up bad news quicker. Fx

Thinking of you xxx

wombatinwaiting · 09/04/2011 06:16

Oh knitter - how frustrating for you..... thinking of you this weekend.

Sorry to hear you're feeling so down banana and second pink's suggestion of seeing if you can get an early scan.

Didn't get a chance to say congrats to jiggle earlier - I am hanging out for my (hopefully) 8 week scan next week so you have my full-on sympathies for waiting 12 weeks..... UTI stories seem to work very well for me - people just don't want to ask anything more when you tell them that!

Collie2 · 09/04/2011 07:18

Hi everyone. Sorry for lack of posts yesterday I had day off so spent morning having luverly walk with dh and afternoon visiting friend and her beatuif 3month dd. I just wanted to steel her and bring her home!

knitter really sorry that you didn't hear before the weekend. I hope what ninu said is true and no news is good news xx

katherine (hugs) sorry you are worrying. Lack of symptoms is ok it's still early, but understand mentalling. Good luck for the scan today.

daisy poor you still feeling this way, but lovely that you found such understanding gp. Going back part time sounds like a good plan but don't push yourself into doing too much especially with the exam. I think a 'trial' run attitude sounds like a good one.

hotnspicey enjoy your holiday sounds lovely.

lara good to see you're back safely. Did you manage to stick to your plan of not working too late? Hope so.

wombat I totally sympathise with your house predicament. I'd like to move but want our next move to be into nice bigger family home which can't afford until I get mat leave out if the way. Atm we live in a 2 bed cottage on 3 floors with unfamily friendly layout, tiny (none existent) decked area at back so no real gatden, and no parking on a very busy steep hill. But it has an abundence of charector which Iove! And I just don't want to give it up. When I had the mc in dec we started looking at houses and I just hated the pratical but charector-less houses, but then all the ones with charector didn't tick all our family neccesary boxes. I don't know what we'll do in the end, but parking and a small garden at least I think is a must, I really miss outside space. Do you think you could sacrifice the interior to get more got your money? I.e buy something dated and old and do it up?

Yay for blackkat going up to 3+ weeks.

dachs how are you? Hope your day at work improved and you're not in too much pain still?

((hugs)) tunnocks good luck tomorrow

mummya Boo to cleaner for not turning up!

banana I'm sorry you're feeling so rotten and worried. I'm still mentalling, but my scan last week really did help, even though it was very early on. I have found my mentalling has gone down a notch. Maybe an early scan would reassure you?

I had awful ms on Thursday which lasted all day amost- was still pucking at 4pm. But then yesterday I was all worried as I felt fine and then started with period pains in the evening -que panic. Anyway I'm in bed typing this feeling I might boak at any moment.... I am just so sick of worrying. I just want to be able to be happy and excited, which I am- but I'm not!!

Another glorious day today, hope to have a drive somewhere nice for the day.

Happy Saturday all

cep · 09/04/2011 07:47

morning ladies

knitter sorry you've got to wait for weekend. keeping fx for good news on Monday.

blackkat yay for 3+ weeks.

banana sorry you're feeling so bad.

collie i'm the same, back to the bad feeling thanks to the brown cm and wipes the other day, i've had nothing since, but just have that bad feeling again.

kat2504 · 09/04/2011 08:03

Sorry you have to wait knitter fx for a good result on Monday
but I'm sure the waiting is hard for you.

Who is wielding the haddock? I am going mental because of a bit of pale pink discharge, presumably small spots of blood. Aargh. Too early to bother the epu so will have to just wait. Am really panicking though.

OrangeGloss · 09/04/2011 08:28

Collie one of the things they test for is protein in urine with those coloured patches. I only know cos mine was slightly high and they told me to drink more! And grrr at your dates mix up
Cep my MW forgot to test my urine at 16 week app, I asked her if she wanted it and she said oops!
Congrats Velvet :) great news
Banana sorry to hear you're having a rough time, I hope it eases. I have an unfounded theory that each pg women has her own thing that helps. Mine's Ribena. At the very least it tastes nice on the way back up Blush
congrats jiggle welcome to the mentalling! :)
Izzy I actually had an almond croissant and pain au chocolate in RL. Very good call! I hope your tiredness eases and gets a bit more manageable
Dachs I didn't get anything like a bump start til about 14 weeks, and it was around 16 weeks that even men noticed and commented. I'm sure you do look pg not fat, you've got 2 pups in there to fill you out!
Mummya damn your effing cleaners!! Angry
knitter damn damn damn they couldn't tell you yesterday :( I do wonder if it was bad news they'd have rung by now, I do hope so

Not much happening over here, been a tough week at work and revising so a bit emotional, but got a good nights sleep so perked up :) I hope you ladies don't mind me popping in still? X

Ninunina · 09/04/2011 08:31

cep sorry to hear your bad feeling is back. Do you think it could be your uti and you need some more antibiotics? When is your next scan? It might also be break through bleeding bcos you normally get AF around now? Is it around 4 weeks since it started last time.

kat how far along are you? Pink cm is usually nothing to worry about.

collie thanks for the coffee and pastries. I think i'll pass on the pastries since DH just made a comment that its impossible to hide that I'm pregnant cos my tummy is so big. I'm only 7+5 which is way too early, so he's basically saying I'm fat. I'm not surprised, cos the only thing that stops me from being sick is eating all day, so no wonder I look like a whale.

Help! Has anyone else put on loads of weight?

cep · 09/04/2011 09:04

ninu when i was pg with ds i had to eat allday to stop feeling nauseous, this time it doesn't work. i haven't put wait on this time. it is about 4 weeks cause i was 6 weeks when i had the uti bleeding. The placenta is supposed to kick in about now or within the next week or so, so it could be that. Apparently the doppler can pick up the hb from about 10 weeks, so i may ask the m/w if she can do that on tuesday. see what she says. hopefully she'll have it with her.

banana87 · 09/04/2011 10:28

Knitter Sorry you didn't hear anything yesterday. Fx for Monday.

ninu I feel like I've put on weight.

Well, I can't win. I no longer feel AS sick as I did, so convinced it's over. It really doesn't help that it has always been this week that things have gone wrong, so it's like I'm waiting. That's the reason I haven't gone for a scan, previous scans have shown me a hb at 6+ weeks and then I miscarry anyway :( Grrrrr...

wombatinwaiting · 09/04/2011 10:39

Sorry you're getting worrying cm still worm - FX you can get the m/w to do the doppler successfully. I seem to be following your ds pg with eating to stop feeling slightly sick - my regular 2 week weigh-in tomorrow so it will be a nightmare interesting to see what the change is. (fortunately in the privacy of my own bathroom so I can wail away if needs be....) - I'll let you know ninunina!

Sorry too that you're feeling so sick collie and can completely understand re: the excited / not excited feeling. I'm just taking one day at a time at the moment.

Spoke to a v close friend this morning and found out she is pg with first and only 6 days behind me. It was so hard to find the right balance between excitement to be at almost the same place as her and the wonderful innocence of 1st pg with no knowledge of mc, and fear of having another mc.... I hope I got it right.....

when's your next scan banana? I guess it's positive that you're still feeling sick but just not quite AS sick as you were - could the anti-voms be really taking effect now....? Sending hugs.

kat2504 · 09/04/2011 11:19

Will be six weeks tomorrow according to last period. By my reckoning I may be up to three days behind that but am definitely no less than that. So at least 5+4. I am freaking out due to having had the same last time. Hope it isn't a bad sign.
