Right then! Come here if you are 4-12 weeks and can't stop fretting. Didn't think anything could be worse than the 2WW? Think again!

caip, maybe and pram - good luck ladies! I am very Envy as my scan feels like it's never going to happen - it's Saturday... So I am hopeful I will make it to Saturday! beetle when you up for yours? motor are you now waiting for one too? Sorry - lost track a bit!
Hello to brooker looking forward to you being over here too hon - it all seems bad news in the egg buddies ATM but things will change and you will get here - I dreamt it last night!
Afm - waiting scan, retching lots, getting very fat and bloated (seriously limited wardrobe options currently - will bloating go in time to wear my normal clothes before mat ones?) and have retreated into lurking a bit as nothing very inspired to say! People in real life keep guessing I am diffed - which is annoying as I can't lie, and I was looking forward to telling them when time was right. Poo.

Fanks, everyone (and thank you for the lie about my Hindley thatch, Brooker) and best wishes to you darling marbie and caip. I really won't be able to report back until at least 2pm as we have an antenatal appointment straight after and then we're going for a posh lunch.

Thats the best news Caip! Amazing isn't it?!

Ooh, posh lunch Pramela, have some for me.

Oh Wim I feel your bloating pain. It will dies down. Mine has gone down a lot in the last week, but it's been replaced with a permanent bump. I don't even bother with my normal jeans anymore!

Crikey. I didn't know I could be this happy or this grateful. Baby was kicking its legs so powerfully - just like a frog when it's leaping! They have moved my date forward to 1st March making me 13+5 today. I've put the scan photo on my profile in case you want to see it.

Lovely news, Caip.

Marbie, we didn't have the posh lunch; I had two steak bake pasties from Greggs and th'usband bought me a selection of those handmade chocs I love so much from the chocolate shop.

Pram, that sounds like the perfect lunch to me!!! I had a bowl only managed half of tomato soup. Was tres tasty.

All good here too, been out at 10+2, so back two days from my 8 week scan, but still one day ahead than I should be. Was a proper groover as well. Literally jumping around, was amazing!!

Marbie, I don't understand a word of your last paragraph! Grin

Grin Prammie!! I'll try again. At my 8 week scan, they put me ahead by 3 days. This time, they have put me back two days, so I'm still technically a day ahead of where I should be, given we know the exact time of conception.

And I have a disco baby. I swear I even saw a couple of glow sticks....

Oh it's good news all round - how wonderful!

Congratulations pram Flowers and maybe Flowers

Great news wim re the retching - Im sure it is not fun, but at least it is a good healthy sign of being pregnant! Good luck for scan on Saturday - how many weeks/ days will you be?

Hi beetle how are you?

For the record, my 12 week scan is on Monday. Definitely getting nervous, but really hoping that if I can pass that milestone I will relax a bit!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 29/08/2013 18:30

Not long now Motor! Each week is sick a massive milestone isn't it? You're going to be making on Monday. What time you up?

Prammy I found it very bizarre seeing him move, but feeling absolutely nothing!!

11.15 maybe. Yes, mine was doing some pretty groovy moves at the 10 week scan - it's so cute isn't it? Not likely to feel anything until about 20 weeks, so quite a wait.

Three disco babies - hoorah! So pleased to read all the good news today. Motor - hope you and I can join the disco baby club by Monday, I'll be 7+4 on my sat scan - so am guessing it'll be less dancing, more (heart) beating! Fingers crossed anyway.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 29/08/2013 20:28

All will be well Wim. You won't see any movement, but the sight of that heart beat is amazing Smile

I know Motor I'm hoping to feel movement a little sooner, though I know it's unlikely! Is going to be so cool though!!

It all feels a little more real today. Is anyone else struggling to eat much. I'll be starving, but just can't fit it in. At the moment the dog is eating more of my dinner than I am Grin

Motor & Wim, I can't wait to hear your scan news.

Marbie, if you don't start proof-reading your posts I'm going to put you and Ken into a really disgusting sexual position and leave you there..
