BabyB19 · 26/04/2020 09:48

We haven't done the nursery yet but have everything bought to do it, it's my dressing room atm so don't want to do it too early @Jonesbabynumber1 I hope the others are ok x

Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 09:50

@MrsCl19 I don’t blame you I’m hoping I can tell them in person all together. But I will have to wait and see. Amazing that will come round quickly x

@jonesbabynumber1 yes ok here, my due date will be 27th december I think if all goes to plan. We will see.

I'm not telling anyone until 12 weeks..that will only change if we have to go back into office and they phase it..will ask to be one of the last z

Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 11:25

@ceebee21 aw exciting I won’t be far behind mines working out at 6th Jan if all goes to plan. That’s sensible, I’ll have to tell people as it’s my 30th and they’ll expect me to drink. And I’ll have to tell work as we still expecting to see people but those on vulnerable list working from home. Have you spoke to GP yet?

BabyB19 · 26/04/2020 12:51

Oh how amazing @Jonesbabynumber1 definitely no denying that lovely line! 🥰
How far are you now @ceebee
Any updates on you @dizzy85 ? X

BabyB19 · 26/04/2020 12:52

@MrsCl19 I was going to comment on the nails too! Hahah, this is the first time I've been nail free in 4 years I'll be banging down the salon door when this is over! X

Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 12:55

@MrsCl19 @BabyB19 it’s so exciting and even better to have people that have been there from the start to enjoy it with. Aw thanks I ordered a uv lamp and have been doing my own, my hair on the other hand is in desperate need of a hairdresser 💇‍♀️.

@Jonesbabynumber1 Iknow that feeling! My roots are that grown it looks ombré 🤣 cannot wait got full head of highlights.

ceebee21 · 26/04/2020 13:11

@Jonesbabynumber1 yes spoken to GP, had to get bloods done due to thyroid , but re midwife, you self refer online where I am!

@BabyB19 5 weeks today... hoping maybe I'll get a 3 weeks on clear blue soon xx

Tbug · 26/04/2020 13:26

I'm 6 weeks exactly today! Going quickly! Lovely line @Jonesbabynumber1 😍

BabyB19 · 26/04/2020 13:27

@Jonesbabynumber1 my OH has cut my hair for me 🤣🤣🤣 I was off work with migraines before lockdown so I've pretty much been in two 2 months now and was in desperate need for a cut 🤣 luckily he's done a good job ahahah! I'm glad I'm still in the group to see everyone getting their bfps!
I think getting past that 4 week mark is a big milestone when you've had CPs isn't it @ceebee21 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 13:31

@ceebee21 I’ve googled it’s not clear on midwifes I’ll ring GP tomorrow, see what they say and ask about folic acid. Feeling guilty that I stopped taking it be nothing I can do now about it. Are you planning on having an early scan, before 12 weeks?

OP posts:
Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 13:34

@Tbug how exciting can’t believe how close a lot of us are. @babyb19 your brave my husbands just cut his hair it’s not the best but I can’t tell him as if he thinks it’s that bad he’ll take it all off and look like and egg 😂. Any advice for next few days ? What would you tell yourself at the start of you could?

OP posts:
ceebee21 · 26/04/2020 13:38

Yes definitely, probably between 7 and 8 weeks I reckon, hard to decide when xx

Tbug · 26/04/2020 13:41

I've got one booked for 2 weeks today at exactly 8 :)

Tbug · 26/04/2020 13:41

Also, I wasn't taking folic acid, but the midwife just said to start taking it once I knew ☺️

Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 13:43

That’s exciting. What I’m confused about is to find how many weeks you are do you go from day of last period or count day one as first day of missed period. As my app saying I’m 3 weeks but obviously implantation has occurred likely in the last week. Does that make sense?

OP posts:
Jonesbabynumber1 · 26/04/2020 13:45

@Tbug glad I’m not alone after 6 months of it I was sick of taking it. I’ll start tomorrow, I’ve only got pre pregnancy multi tables will they be ok

BabyB19 · 26/04/2020 13:48

My advice would be to book 2 private scans at 8 and 16 weeks, that way you have private and nhs scans at each 4 weeks point, it helped me massively having that reassurance and never having that long to wait up until I could feel movement and had a bump. I would also say don't let anxiety ruin it for you, I really became quite unwell in first few months with anxiety and there was no need because it's all worked out well so I've just lost out on all that happy time. If the worst happens you will be equally as upset wether you've waited for it to happen or gone ahead and got excited, so you might as well let yourself enjoy it. Physically I would try and stay active with some yoga or something as I'm struggling with ligament pain atm which I'm positive wouldn't have been so bad if I had have been more active initially @Tbug @ceebee21 @Jonesbabynumber1 xx
