[Chocolateteabag]

Oops I managed to finish the last thread - so here we go!

Janie - fingers crossed

Congratulations Black.
Excellent news! I can't wait to find out what she is called.

Lol saggy- me neither!!

Your lovely messages made me well up earlier. Thank you so much! This thread = babies. Today you are pregnant xxx

Congrats blackholes, hope you find a name for your baby girl.

Good luck for the move aly, check in with us when you've got time!

Really sorry to hear ickle is leaving us, take care of yourself.

Welcome to alb, hope things go smoothly for you.

My spotting has disappeared, but so have most of my symptoms. Resorted to pregnancy test as I just don't feel pregnant anymore. By the time my 12 week scan comes around I will probably be a gibbering wreck. Sigh.

many congratulations blackholes! so exciting your little one made it in good time before Christmas! santa hope your little one isn't taking your nickname too seriously!

hope everyone is ok in this hectic weather. DH just joined me at family so relieved he decided to come early. christine hope your DH gets to you ok.

aly all the best for the big move! really hope your flight took off ok, I've got some friends stranded at Heathrow as their flight has been postponed (well I say stranded, they're being put up in the Radisson blu so not such hardship really!)

Congratulations Blackholes!! do you have a name yet?

Good look to Aly and to everyone who has to travel anywhere over the next few days. We are on a hill in the sticks and feels like the house may blow away but at least we don't need to go out.

I'm now entrenched in new born land - groggy with sleep deprivation, weepy with hormone high/lows and with sore cracked nipples and huge after pains as my uterus contracts back in place. It's truly awful - but then Joss does a smile(burp really) and it's all worth it.

Wishing everyone on the thread a happy Christmas and amazing 2014 filled with lots of babies. "you" have all been a huge support to me over the past few months, I hope the thread can continue doing this for all of you and you are over on the graduate of graduates thread in post natal soon

TODAY WE ARE PREGNANT!!

Morning all. So today would have been my due date with my last PG. Feeling sad and last night had a dream that I was bleeding. At least today I am busy and family is arriving so I hope it will keep my mind off it. But thinking that today I am
Pregnant is getting me through. And you ladies have been great. Thank you.

Awwww chocolate...that post actually made me cry!!! Im so emotional

Enjoy your little bubba

Finished food shop this morning and now for baking this afternoon. I hope everyone has a fab xmas and will catch up in a few days

Congrats Blackholes! We didn't settle on DS2's name until he was what, 5 weeks old? So you've got all the time in the world

Lozul, are you doing anything to mark today? DH didn't remember our mc DD and it really upset me at the time.

Good luck for your move Aly

Nothing much to report here, DS1 has just turned 2 & DS2 is almost 5 months and everyone has a blocked nose & cold.

So... Who wants to hear about my varicose fanjo veins as a nice diversion from Christmas?
One of the little perks of PG that nobody tells you about!
My nether regions are reminiscent of the Elephant Man!...
whoopee!

Congratulations black :-) I have an early scan booked in for the 6th jan so I'm currently aiming for that mile stone! Il only be 6+2 so il proly be lucky to hear a heartbeat but if everything is the right size and shape il still be happy. Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome, today we are pregnant really does help :-)

saggy! That means you've looked, no way am I trying to manoeuvre a mirror down there, ignorance is bliss!! I've heard it's very normal and they'll go down

Oh yes I didn't think of that! Surely a man should be gentlemanly enough not to point them out though....

It's been ages since DH went down there!! Perhaps I should give him a Christmas treat but not if varicose veins await him!!

no. I looked myself. And if my miserable fecking DP doesn't buck his ideas up he WONT be seeing it for a VERY long time!

Ooh! Good idea!
Im just being thoroughly unreasonable today. I'm really tired and grumpy!

sticking my head back in after being AWOL for a while.
Had my 12 week scan yesterday and although bub seems fine we also got the news that it was originally a twin pregnancy but that one didn't develop so is still teeny in their in its own sac. So while I am happy we have one I am also so very sad that we lost one. DP thinks I'm mad but yup
so due date now of 6th July
Merry Christmas eve all

Hi Boba, yes, I was at a carol service today so lit a candle and had a little cry. Tomorrow I will be on 11 weeks so that's been a massive help today. That and my DH has been great. I'm lucky in many ways.

I know it's 10 minutes premature, but im going to raise a glass to all the lost little ones who belong to this thread, and to all of those who will be sharing christmas with us next year.
Merry Christmas lovely ladies. xx

What a beautiful sentiment saggy. I'll drink to that

Merry Christmas lovely ladies, thanks for all of your wonderful support.

Me and the MIL are up and waiting for the men to wake up. Here's hoping that this will be our last lazy quiet Christmas for many years to come!

Merry Christmas to all of you hope you all had a good day

Arrgh! I have spent so much time reading these threads over the last few days!

TTC since Jan '12, MMC last summer, no symptoms of anything, BFP last Monday! Been having PG symptoms, sore boobs, dizziness, constipation, have just cried all the way through Finding Nemo!

Now I'm panicking, have had very low grade cramp/womb ache but this has just stepped up in the last hour and have had some brown spotting when I went to the loo and my boobs have stopped hurting?! We dtd yesterday as I was so happy and care-free "if it's meant to be it's meant to be" - now I'm just back to PANIC!

I'm 5+1.

Help! :(

• not MMC, still learning the acronyms, had an early miscarriage/chemical pregnancy.

Miss, firstly, welcome and congratulations.
Secondly, try not to panic. Spotting after dtd is common, pregnancy hormones thin the skin on the cervix making it prone to damage. Cramps are also very common. The uterus stretches and adapts in the early days.
The only time to really worry is if the pains are one sided, which requires checking out.
Its totally unhelpful I know, but in the first few weeks, all you can do is sit tight and try not to worry. Hang out here with us. xx
