Oh Batmam - I can't handle the suspense!!!!

Batmam · 18/10/2013 09:22

Cbd says pregnant 1-2 weeksShock
Not really believing it though, been ttc for a year while saving up for more ivf so to fall naturally was always a long shot. Lost DDs twin at 8wks. But for now IT'S A BFP! (Right?) ...where's that peppermint tea?

GinandStripes · 18/10/2013 09:22

Mama - Enjoy yourself tonight and have a drink. I drank the night before I got my BFP, I needed that wine to get me through until the morning! :-)

When I saw the doctor this week, she asked me about alcohol - said I'd not touched a drop since I found out and she told me that I didn't need to stop completely - the occasional glass of something I fancy isn't going to hurt. Saving myself for next weekend when I tell my parents, brothers, sister in laws and nephew. Wine

GinandStripes · 18/10/2013 09:24

batmam eeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkk!!!!!! That's AMAZING Grin Grin fantastic news!!! There is no messing with a cb digi it says preggers in big lovely digital letters so no chance you're not.

Aah what a good start to the party :)

Right I'm conga-ing out the door for a short while, won't be long just need to get more sausage rolls and I forgot my Pom poms!

For anyone trying to upload, I failed to do it from my phone. In theory you go to My Mumsnet, then profile where you can upload pics to a gallery, then make your profile public and we will be able to see. BUT in practice I was unable to do that from mobile and had to use a laptop.

And will fess up just before I run out the door, my POAS addiction is still going strong Blush did another today and pleased to report all good so far :)

GinandStripes · 18/10/2013 09:31

Onelife - nearly 7 weeks. I've spoken to my Dad and my middle brother on the phone since finding out and it was so hard not to say anything. But it's my SILs birthday party next week, so perfect time to tell them all.

My nephew just turned 17 this week, so my parents have waited a long time for Grandchild no. 2. Sadly, my other brother and wife tried for a long time, tried IVF but it wasn't meant to be for them. I'm predicting tears already.

allchatnicknamesgone · 18/10/2013 09:36

Batmam - I am absolutely overjoyed for you! I'm so so happy for you. You must be on cloud 9!!!! x

flymo79 · 18/10/2013 09:44

GinandStripes · 18/10/2013 09:45

BecauseIsaidS0 · 18/10/2013 10:07

Thanks! I totally forgot my manners - huge congratulations to Batmam!

Batmam · 18/10/2013 10:08

So sorry becauseisaidso??

Thanks everyone. Feel a bit of a fraud rocking up to my first party uninvited whilst you lot probably already know each other from the bus (forums consumed my life first time round so trying to avoid that this time)
But I was honestly prepared for a bfn and ok with that for the first time ever - because I had you guys (puke) and the next party to plan! Whatever happens to this pg I now now that I do actually work cheers to that

HisLommel · 18/10/2013 10:13

A fraud? Nooo! You're an honorary guest now Batmam, we'll fetch you a crown and a bouquet of flowers Thanks like a pageant queen, just upduffed Grin

jessieagain · 18/10/2013 10:34

Wow congratulations batmam that is fantastic news!! Grin

Ok I tried not to drink much and poa ic again and took a photo, very blurry I'm sorry Blush , but it shows the line as clearly as I could manage. It should be on my profile now. What do you think?

jessieagain · 18/10/2013 10:37

Hmm now I feel a little silly as for some reason I can't see my own photos? Blush please can someone check and tell me?
