We are jolly well going to get and stay diffed this month and we are BROOKING NO ARGUMENT.

[Imps9]

Gah didn't realise we'd reached 1000 messages on the old thread!

imps those were my thoughts exactly when I told my friend from work a few weeks ago. She was OMG! That's wonderful! I'm so excited for you! And I was just stood there staring at her open mouthed thinking huh? What? Is this how you're supposed to react to a pregnancy announcement?

geek what time is it tomorrow? Brooking hard for you

loopy what's the plan with testing this month?

I've had a lovely day relaxing in the garden, a friend came round for coffee this morning, but now I've got a headache. I don't think I'm dehydrated, maybe I'm just not used to sunshine and warmth!

How annoying imps, the same thing happened to me the night before last too. Flipping mn!

It must be so odd beedle and imps getting those reactions. It's a whole other world out there. I had to tell the council carer assessor about my pg so they could take that into account with my needs and changing priorities when it comes to caring for my df, and she was so over the top excited I felt like telling her to just calm the fuck down, there are no guarantees at this stage don't you know! I think she was just as confused about why I wasn't dancing on cloud nine myself.

Sorry, I've only just read the thread and it's all gone out of my head. I'm fit to drop these days. Scan tomorrow is 08:20am so not too much hanging around worrying and wondering.

loopy brooking like crazy that this is your month. I swear there are points where time doesn't just stop but actually goes backwards in the waiting period.

Geek good luck for your scan tomorrow. And did Beedles say she had one soon? I've just tried to catch up and it's a jumbled mess in my head now!

Yay for you being an official preggo at work Imps.

So keep, you asked if I was feeling things, yes, as of tonight I have the same things going on in there, no mistaking it.

Re testing, as last months labelled tests proved to me, I didn't get a quick/clear BFP until 11dpo. So plan is to hold off until then. But I have terrible willpower so may end up testing before then, as if I were to get a BFP either earlier than then or darker than the ones last month then it would make me think I stood a chance, if the lines are like last month then I know not to get my hopes up. I only have 2 frer left though and money is tight so not sure if can order any more. Going to be a horrid few months, got 3 family birthdays to buy for this month, Father's Day and my moms birthday in June, my brother is getting married in July and we have a cheap holiday booked in July too which will cost a bit for activities and treats. Not sure I can boost frer profits as much as i would like to!!

That's good you can feel something loopy I am amazed by how you feel things, how early did you feel kicks with your boys?! Holding off testing sounds like a plan, just take it one day at a time. Really really hoping this one sticks

geek masses of luck for the morning lovely

geek it is a whole other world.

Glad you've got a nice early scan, brooking my socks off there's a little prawn-shaped baby in there with a flickering heartbeat.

Willpower loopy

I ordered a maternity skirt from asos here It looked lovely in the picture, though I probably should have read the description a bit better. Bodycon is not good on me and the fact that it was ankle length on the 5ft 11 model should have given it away that it would be a bit too long on me. Luckily its free returns!

All good, measuring 1 day ahead, there are little limb buds forming, a clear head end, and there is a lovely little heartbeat measuring 169bpm relief doesn't even begin to cover it! Going to try and calm down a bit now...

Photo attached so that imps doesn't shout at me

Looking beautiful Geek

YEEEEEEES Geek get in!!!! Oh what a relief my lovely. And well done re: photo!

Woohoo so pleased :o

Yay yay YAY!!!!!

Sorry I'm only just checking in, been a busy day.
Glorious news geek and lovely pic. I hope you will feel more relaxed now.
loopy it must be so hard to put off testing when you are so aware of what's happening in there.
I'm doing ok. One day my symptoms are reassuring next they are gone.N is definitely helping take my mind off it. One week till scan although I do keep worrying that there is nothing there!

Great news re your scan Geek!

Re feeling kicks, ds1 had an anterior placenta so didn't feel anything until 22 weeks and was only tiny flutters to start with. ds2 was slightly earlier as was posterior placenta. But ever since I had ds1 I have felt ovulation and implantation. Before having ds1 I didn't feel ovulation but I did have sensations from implantation just didn't realise what was going on at the time.
About 7 dpo I had lots going on as had tried to paint a load of raised beds with DH and I had to stop as felt awful and neither of us realised why until I got BFP which was around 18-20 dpo on a clearblue digital!

Can still feel things, but no reason to get excited as chances are I will be trying again next month, but I know it's a numbers game and at some point I must win this crappy game so trying to remain a fraction optimistic, as feeling a bit more ouchier with it this month so maybe this one will burrow in properly...

keep I'm 32, was reading a some stuff recently and the stats get pretty depressing which is not helping me stay positive. Hopefully It will be happening soon. Also I think I know how to chnage a tyre but have not put it into practice so think I would probably freak out a bit.

Morning all,

loopy I was expecting you to say you felt the kicks from about 10 weeks! I was really surprised when we had a scan at 10 weeks that the baby was moving I Think I just thought they just lay there until much later!

trix is it Saturday for your scan?

Just had a rather Lovely 4 day weekend, the weather has been really nice. But it has highlighted my lack of clothes that fit! I bought some overbump jeans on Saturday. I don't Think they'll fall down but they are fairly loose where the denim joins the bump band - though I guess I'll need some more growing room later on!

I've also told a couple more of my colleagues so I can stop trying to hide my fat belly at work!

Morning hope you all had a lovely weekend.
Yes beedles scan in Saturday eek!
I'm feeling mildly sickly so I guess that's a good sign.

Ooh a symptom trix were you very sick with N?

Ooh trix not long now till your scan
beedle we've had lovely weather here too, I adore summer. I'm in the hairband-in-buttonhole stage as my mat clothes fall off

Saw some new twins at the weekend, omg so glad I'm pregnant they were so scrumptious and kip was adorable with them... Dh cuddled one for ages, he was in heaven

My 20 week scan is next Friday, I'm nervous as I've heard a few horrible stories but trying to be reasonable that odds are in our favour

Not really about the same as this , just a bit sick it was mostly in the evening with him though.
Strong smells are starting to get to me as well, one of them being washing up liquid.
I know that sometimes pred is used to treat severe morning sickness (hg?) So I wonder if that means I'd be very sick with our it. Trouble is if you read the side effects of all these drugs it could be them making me feel sick! As for the sore boobs that's probably the cyclogest.

oh Twins keep how gorgeous (for short periods of time!). i've not actually worn the mat jeans, only tried them on. But its highly unlikely the weather will stay this Lovely so I wanted some more comfortable jeans ready and waiting. I have a few bottoms that still fit, and plenty of tops (especially now I'm not trying to hide my teeny bump)

trix no washing up for you then - what a shame :o

Fingers crossed for your scans keep and trix.

This week has dragged so much, I ovulated after I went to bed last Monday night and before I woke up Tuesday morning, so I'm either 7dpo tonight or tomorrow morning depending on when the egg popped. Still getting my ouchy feelings, trying not to get my hopes up but it feels stronger this month than lately. I wish the next few days would hurry up and be over with!

Well not long till you can test now loopy! Brooking that it's all good signs for this month

geek hope tomorrow goes well with the mw, am sure it will be a bit adminny, but I always get excited/nervous anyway!

Hope all are well, it's all rainy here today, boo!

Just realised, at 18+5 I'm slightly over halfway to term! :)

Hello lovelies hope you're okay.

Not long until testing day Loops. Stay strong! Not testing will not make a difference to whether you are pregnant or not (says she who has no willpower to speak of when it comes to peeing on sticks).

Glad you're feeling a bit iffy Trix. You haven't had any bleeding have you? Counting down the minutes to your scan with you.

Gosh Keep how can time go so slowly but also so fast?! Half way to term already! Fabulous.

Geek has the anxiety fucked the fuck off or is it still as bad? Has your bleeding stopped now? Hope so.

I've been feeling quite low the past couple of days. I got a bit cross by Mr Imps' patronising family with whom we spent the weekend, and I haven't managed to shake it off completely. I have a knot in my stomach and a thought that I can't shift that something isn't right. I am sure I have been feeling B-B move for just shy of a week, but haven't felt anything for a couple of days. I know that it's probably absolutely nothing, and I still have sore boobs and was sick this morning. It's just this unshakeable sense of doom that I need to get rid of.

16 week MW appointment tomorrow - not expecting anything exciting but nice to have an appt to look forward to.

You might hear the heartbeat Imps, some midwives don't do it at this one as can be a little tricky to find but you will hve the doppler at every appointment from then on.

Oh imps bb is fine. I think it probably wasn't movement tbh then, as it would have been pretty early for a first baby. I hope seeing the mw helps, mine did a Doppler and found it easily, it depends on the position. Other than that it was just bp and wee, the usual, and blood results from your booking. What did the patronising family do? And when are you giving us a bumpie? Deep breaths. I found 12-20 quite hard last time but no pain or bleeding, getting bigger, vvv good signs
