Mums to be due in May 2011

[emmywoo]

Hi everyone,
Thought I would start a thread for all us mums to be who are due in May 2011 so that we can support each other. xx

Hi everyone,
Not good news i am afraid. I started getting lower back pain last night, rang at lunchtime to get results and my hgc level has gone down to 150 so have miscarried, i queried this as have not had any fresh blood and she said that with the pain i had on Sunday in A&E and last night goes along with the miscarriage. I have to go back in tomorrow for more tests and they will tell me the next step.

I really do wish you all the very best with all your pregnancies, i am blessed tho to have gorgeous little 3yo little girl at home.

Lots of love to everyone.

Thank you very much for starting this thread. Thinking of you and in a peverse way, thanks for being so open and sharing your experience.

Lots of love,

Emmywoo - you have my deepest sympathy. You seem to be staying very strong and brave, but remember to allow yourself the time and space to deal with things and take very good care of yourself.

Thank you for setting up this thread. I really hope to see you on here again soon.

Love and hugs

Emmywoo thinking of you. x

Welcome to all are new expectant mothers!

Hi all, I found out 3 days ago that I am pregnant. I still cant belive it and have since done a further 6 tests, all of which have been positive. I hate the fact that I have no other 'proof' of this, I keep trying to stop myself from getting excited as I know it is really early on. It would appear that I fell pregnant on my honeymoon when we weren't even trying, in fact we used protection all but one time so it is obviously meant to be and whilst we weren't trying my new husband and I are soooo happy and nervous and scared and... gosh I just keep wishing that a few weeks could pass so I felt a bit more secure that this is for real!

Emmywoo I'm so sorry. Thinking of you xxxxxx

What a pregnant div am I? In between walking to the front door from the car managed to fall off the kerb and sprain my ankle. Lay there mooing like a right baby while DH panicked that it was something baby related. Managed to get up eventually and have spent all night with my foot elevated but honestly feel like such a chump. I know I wanted some bed rest cos I was tired but this is ridiculous!! My sister helpfully suggested that I could have fallen over because my boobs are now so big (they were massive in the first place) that they've adversely affected my centre of gravity and I now can't walk upright!

Have a nice evening all.

Also, first timer May...hoping all is still going to be ok. x

Emmywoo huge hugs to you and thanks for starting this thread and getting us all talking.

funkylittlekaty that's hilarious...boob inflicted injuires! Hope the ankle feels better soon. My boobs are also out of control - I put on a bra I only bought a week ago today and already it doesn't fit!

Also now sooo impatient for my scan - got the appointment booked for the 29th October which feels like ages away.

I've been furiously ebaying for maternity jeans and haven't been on mn, so sorry emmywoo and firsttimermay that I missed supporting you on this thread, what a rollercoaster. Hope that you are both okay and getting lots of cuddles from your partners.

Pregnancy is just a time for worrying I often think, no one knows until it happens to them.

On a poitive note I won the jeans, huzzzah, someone tried to pip me at the post at the last minute but they didn't guess how much I WANTED THEM !!!!

Gap skinny maternity jeans 8 pounds thank you very much ebay x

Morning all,

Typing this from bed, feeling horrid. Nothing MC-related, just minging - glands up, feeling sick (standard) and feeling that going to loo is too much effort. Had to host people for dinner last night, hideous! Girl announced she was 3 months PG and I had to sit there quiety supping elderflower from a wine glass (having it strong so it looked like wine!) willing them all to fecking well go. Got rid of them by 10:30, so not all bad. Supposed to be going out again tonight, but canning it. Said to DH that he's not to book any more week night dos until I feel human again.

I simply want to be a hermit for the next 5 weeks.

On a brighter note, boobs aren't feeling QUITE as sore as they have recently. I know I should be happy, but panicking it means I am not so PG anymore.

ARGH - wish I could stop worrying.

Hello to all newbies - huge congrats and brace yourself for the rollercoster that appears to be the first trimester!

Hi everyone!

I found out on Monday that I am pregnant, my first baby. Very excited and obviously very nervous too!

Nice to be able to come on here and chat about it all over the coming months.

I am off to see the doctor today to confirm everything and to check out some tummy cramps that I have had since Tuesday. I am due in May so im only a few weeks pregnant and it seems to be quite common to have these cramps in early pregnancy but I am a little worried so want to get it checked. Anyone else had a similar thing? I haven't had any bleeding or anything....

Congratulations to all you other mummies to be!

missemmajane, I've had cramps on and off the whole time but no bleeding. Hoping all is well, but think its very common to have these symptoms. Am a bit worried today as all my symptoms seem to have stopped and I keep staring manically at my boobs to see if they've deflated. I'm not tired, or sicky. Maybe it's cos I have to rest my sprained ankle though and am lying on the sofa watching One Born Every Minute on 4od! Bliss.

morning ladies!

I know the feeling of constant worry too - felt crampy and bloaty last night, then woke up this morning without sore boobs and have poking and prodding them ever since even the cat having a good old 'paddy paw' session on them doesn't hurt. I remember the worry all throughout my other 2 pregnancies (even though they were so long ago) never stop til the baby is born and then start a whole new set of worries

I'm only 5 weeks, but have had to take out the drawstring on my trackies, and not even going to try getting into my jeans!!

Just waiting for more symptoms to kick in to reassure me, then I can wish they'd go again!!!

Oh, Little Milla and crowette,

I am soooo-o glad to know that it is not weird for your boobs to stop hurting quite so much!

This was making me very worried that the baby has stopped, well, being a baby. Kept poking them just to feel that they do hurt :-) Getting upset that slept better than before because boobs are less in the way.... I don't believe how silly and irrational being pregnant makes me, but, boy, is it good to know I am not the only one

People, please please post your thought and feelings and paranoias - nobody except us knows what we are going through and it is so hard not to be able to talk about it constantly, and to who????? When I read some of your posts it makes me feel 200% less lonely

Good luck!

Hi Natalie I'm still running to the loo every 30 mins to check for anything abnormal, not just to wee

Only my OH knows I'm pregnant, so I can't discuss it with anyone else just yet - googling like mad at the slightest change, no wonder I'm a stress head at the moment

Crowette - how funny, ive been exactly the same, running to the loo every few minutes to make sure all is ok!! I never used to be paranoid!!!!!

I also am 'google' mad at the moment - its weird how just a couple of weeks and finding out you are pregnant can change your whole personality!!!

Thanks funnylittlekaty - its nice to know when others go through the same - lying on the sofa sounds bliss!!!!

I was the same with my last one, 11 years ago! I can't even remember when the symptoms started to change either. But then, all pregnancies are different - my first 2 were, they're just vague memories now though

I'm sure being off work doesn't help, too much time to think and worry, nothing to distract me!

hi all. Congrats and welcome to the new faces on here. Sorry to hear your news Emmywoo, hope you'll hop on the later bus' on the conception pages! not much to report, just like last time no symptons other than hunger and tiredness - oh and babybrain has kicked in even earlier this time! What IS that all about? Its turned me into my DP! I cant find things, I forget things and am covered in bruises where I've misjudged doorways and steps and things!

phew phew phew. am so glad this thread exists!

i was starting to think that my symptoms were going - sore boobs have definitely died down, and the cramping has stopped really. expected them to go and to start getting really sick instead but so far (touch wood!) that's not happened.

i'm sure i'll feel completely different in two days time, but for now i'm stressing slightly!

and like a few of you on here, only me and DH know so far. it's driving me mad. i spend all day wanting to blab, then when i get home i just want to talk to him about it constantly. i'm sure he's getting a bit fed up now, as i guess for blokes it doesn't quite feel real until they can see a proper bump.

fingers crossed for everyone (and me!) that all's still baking away nicely in there...x
