Crackers Work were awful actually. They wanted me to bring a letter in off my doctor proving that I'm pregnant... because I'd obviously lie about something like that. Glad I'm not there at the moment to be honest. When I told them the smell of the shop made me feel worse the response was 'hold your breath'

Not had any spotting since last night (and it was such a minscule bit) still feeling a bit crampy though. I'm keeping positive, we've tried for a year for this baby, it's not getting taken away from me now! x

Thanks alwaysanauntie! i'm 10+1 now and must admit that my symptoms (sore boobs, afternoon and evening nausea, crushing tiredness, mouth watering, the odd headache) have started to ease off over the last week. from what i've read, this seems to be quite common? (at least i hope it is!)

Wommer · 20/10/2011 13:44

Hi guys,
I'm 9+3 today and I'm sure have not been so tired over the past couple of days. Still got the sore boobs, but I don't think as bad as they have been. And seem to be on a bit more even keel emotionally as well (which hb is very happy about!)
That was about it for my symptoms anyway, but glad to hear they possibly should be easing a bit now.
Makes sense as everyone says they're all gone by 12 weeks anyway! Can't imagine you go to bed at 11+6 a gibbering wreck and wake up "glowing" on 12+0 lol

Hello everyone,
I've been lingering and reading for a while and letting things progress. I've been on holiday in Australia for 3 weeks now and i'm now 9 weeks by my guess.

Firstly though i just want to say i was so sorry to hear about CODwidow and my heart completely went out to you. I hope you've been ok and that you and DH are managing ok.

I've been so frustrated being out here and not being able to talk to anyone about what's going on. Family don't know yet and i'm not telling them till i sort things out with the bf. This wasn't exactly planned and it's been completely my decision to keep it but he seems to be coming round and when chatting to him online the other night, he even asked me if i wanted a girl or a boy, which was enough for these hormones to make me cry lol!

So glad to hear that people's symptoms are dying down a bit now. I got so worried this morning when i didn't feel sick and my boobs didn't hurt as much! How mad is that? To feel bad when you don't feel sick? Crazy. But then again this is my first real pregnancy after a mc at 5 weeks.

Gotta get back home now and get right on the phone to docs and midwife, i'm so late now at getting appointments etc. Do you still think i'd manage to get a scan in by 12 weeks? I really hope so, i can't wait and i'm almost considering paying for one but i know that my money isn't going to go very far and it wud b better spend on dc.

GL all, getting towards the 12 week mark, slowly but surely!

7Lamby thinking of you tomorrow. Good luck, am sure will be fine. Crossing fingers and toes. xx

hippieshake · 20/10/2011 15:14

Just spoke to the Early Pregnancy Unit, going in at 10:45 for a scan. Keeping positive!x

lucy23110 · 20/10/2011 17:15

Hi all. I feel so so so sick all day at the mo (for about 2 weeks now) really struggling as only my DH knows. Saw friends this morning with their kids. Couple of them had runny noses, just normal and would have normally just grabbed a tissue and wiped it but today had to stop myself from throwing up on the spot. my poor DD she does understand why I can't play with her as I was before, really really hope it passes soon. And to top it all MIL is coming over tonight. I want to go to bed!!! L x

Little9 · 20/10/2011 19:10

SirCharles · 20/10/2011 22:50

Good luck hippieshake. Fingers n toes crossed.

SirCharles · 20/10/2011 22:57

Hi alwaysauntie. I know what you mean. The scaling back of my symptoms makes me feel slightly panicked.... Fingers crossed all fine. Creeping forward to that important 12 week milestone.
Biggest problem is the insomnia - what is that about?!

Most disappointing issue is I did not like my white wine spritzer this evening. Is this the start of an anti-craving? (happened to a friend of mine). I do hope not!

CODwidow · 21/10/2011 09:11

Just a quick thank you for all the lovely messages, good luck to everyone for happy healthy pregnancies xx

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 10:06

Good luck today 7lamby and hippie. Let us know how you get on.

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 10:08

Ginger why don't you call the midwives to chase up your referral?

It's only the booking appointment at this stage, so nothing to worry about re. timing I don't think.

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 10:10

lucy I hope you feel better.
I too am suffering bad with the MS. Tonight we've got MIL, FIL, SIL & BIL staying.

Then Saturday night we are playing host to 6 of DP's friends & SIL & BIL are staying. They're all staying over.

Jesus christ, what was I thinking!!

lucy23110 · 21/10/2011 11:37

Bless you crackers, made mine seem like a breeze!!! Good luck will be thinking of you. I.ve got my booking apt this afternoon so hopefully will make me feel a bit better. Still not going to tell anyone til my scan as so paranoid this time round. It is getting hard because we have a few things coming up and I don't drink people will start putting two and two together. I might just cancel. Hope everyone OK. L x

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 11:48

lucy antibiotics are your friend. Say they are for cystitis and that soon moves the conversation onto the next topic..!

hippieshake · 21/10/2011 12:23

The scan went well. I'm not as pregnant as I thought, only around 8 weeks. The baby had a really strong heartbeat though, so relieved!

7lamby hope everything goes okay for you. Fingers and toes crossed!!

How's everyone doing? xx

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 12:58

hippie that much be such a relief and so exciting to see the little heart beat :o)

alwaysanauntie · 21/10/2011 13:33

Congrats hippieshake! Great news. 7lamby hope you're ok xx

I've booked my scan for 8.20 am on Tuesday so at least I've got a date and it's not too long to wait. DH is coming to so nice he can finally feel a part of things and not just have to take my word for it! Will also be good to get a date as I could be anywhere between 10 and 12 weeks at the mo.

bigboobsatlast · 21/10/2011 14:15

hi ladies, not posted for a while as been feeling so rotten and been busy busy. had some light bleeding yesterday and today so midwife sent me for a scan at lunch time - good news is that the heart beat looked strong - the surprising news is that there are two!!!! I can't believe it! not quite sunk in yet... and still a little worried as although scan showed babies are well and no reason for the bleeding, I still have a pinky/brown discharge. Just going to have to try not to worry and start to get my head round having twins!

Congrats to all the new comers. exciting, but sometimes worrying/scary times.

Any one else on here having a multiple pregnancy (that they know of)? x

CrackersandCheese · 21/10/2011 15:02

AFAIK bigboobs you're thr first on the thread expecting twins! How exciting for you. Do you have a family history of multiple births?

hippieshake · 21/10/2011 15:53

Wow bigboobs that's so exciting!! How far along are you? Could they see a bleed on the scan?

Only one baby in me, that's for sure! xx

7lamby · 21/10/2011 17:03

Hello, unfortunately it was bad news for us. We kind of expected it but it still hurts Sad Please take me off the list.
Wishing all of you all the luck in the world. Take care xxx
