Please keep reminding me to breathe.
Need to calm down or I'll never get through the day.

Remember last time i thought i might be pregant and tehn came on that afternoon, that was Valentines Day.

God I'm shaking.

Well haven't had a period since.

Did a first response test a while ago and it said I wasn't.

Don't know why I did but I stoipped off and bought another test this morning.

It says I am.

OMG.

My best freind works in the building so I ran and got her and dragged her back into the loo with me and we've starred at the test for 10 minutes and cried and cried.

Oh! Can this be true. Is it real? I'm so happy. Soi scared that my bubble will burst, that something will go wrong. Trying so hard not to cry.

Can't stop my hands shaking.

How will I get through today. have to wait all day to see D and tell him. Wish I knew for sure. Or do I?

OMG.

Breathe, breathe.

how are you going to tell him the news?

have you planned it?

does it involve props? (like bootees or pissy sticks )

nutcracker · 21/04/2005 17:27

{grin] Great news Thomcat

SoupDragon · 21/04/2005 17:28

My money's on running up to him, screaming "I'm pregnant! I'm pregnant!" and hurling herself round his neck.

Twiglett · 21/04/2005 17:28

he'll be able to tell from a mile away by the grin anyway

desperatehousewife · 21/04/2005 17:30

Many many congratulations Thomcat - this is SUCH a lovely thread - everyone is so excited! God, how boody do I feel now too?!

Have a wonderful night tonight - put your lippy on and look gorgeous and whisper to your husband the great news!

Looking forward to hearing how it went - well done!

Well we'll be with friends and meeting him at bar/restauarant. i'll have to say I need to speak to him outside and then I'll hand him a box, full of silver shredded paper stuff that has the 'pissy stick' in! I've also printed off what bubns looks like at 10 weeks and got them in my bag. think once he's over the shock we'll share news with our friends who go back to Botswana early next week and get the champagne ordered and i'll say 'ohhh, just the one forme' while holding my tummy and grinning!

God this is actually happening.
I thought I'd never get pregnant again and thought the other day how sad it would be to not have a bro os sis for Lotbabgs. now she'll have one for Xmas!

ohhhhhhh, just properly welled up then.

Thomcat · 21/04/2005 17:36

Well I'm a scatty cow and after I missed 1 i did a trest and it said I wasn't so thought I must have had a period and not written it down or something, then missed 2 and thought hmmmmmmm and thought well i was never really regular before i had Lottie and had been on depo for years so only been having periods again for amatter of 6 - 8 something like that months and then forgot and then did another test today.

I'm basically a scatty cow though and don't take any notice of missed periods tbh. no symtons at all, lost a stone, and tits don't hurt or anything.

Huge congrats to you to Ebbie, when are you due and how are you feeling?

Well done you two. I am so so pleased for you - congratulations!!!!!!

(ps, is your DH likely to get as excited as you? if so can you give us a warning before he posts here . . .)

Frizbe · 21/04/2005 19:48

Only just seen this congrats TC, how fabulous

Congratulations!! Fab news!!!!

hunkermunker · 21/04/2005 19:56

TC, and you call me a nutter?!

If I do see you in the street, I'm gonna leap up and down and grin at you (OK, you might be right about me being a nutter...just hope I get the right person or some other lady's going to call the police )

This is one of my favourite threads on MN - I'm SO happy for you! Lottie's going to be a big sister - she can wear an 'I'm the big sister' top!
