Having rubbish cramps greedy...stressing to the max Confused been laid up on the sofa all afternoon, was the first morning I've had queasiness - so hasn't been a good day all round Sad hope you start to feel better soon!!!

Hope everything went well today barbie

I had strange pains lat night. Tender stomach and where I usually feel ovulation etc. Think it was trapped wind though as DH said I did a massive one when I fell asleep Blush I keep thinking any ache or pain is a bad sign.

Yokyil · 09/05/2015 17:33

I know wispy just constantly think every twinge or pain is bad news and rush to the toilet to check. Know it's madness - but in the logical side of my brain I know there's nothing I or any docs can do to stop it if anything was to go wrong. Whatever will be, will be

All went well here :-) epau have said they don't need to see me any more but that if the consultant doesn't offer us a 16 week scan give them a call. Dating scan Wednesday

Fab news barbie, I feel like there is so much going on I havn't caught up properly.

I'm having abit of a drama and I need help. I think my husband thinks I'm being over sensitive but I'm really not. I have a ds 2.10 and he is always on me jumping , stroking, holding my hand. He is closer to me that my shadow. I don't mind the nice stuff but the jumping on me needs to just stop,honestly he just runs full pelt at me and it hurts.i know the baby is safe and can't be hurt but omg I just can't cope anymore. He also just punched me in the face because I asked him to put his cars away. I just got up and walked away. I really want to cry, I'm scared about how I'm going to cope with 2 children now. He only ever hits me and jumps on me my dh thinks it's because I go to work and leave him, but so does my dh he doesn't get jumped on or hit. It's just too much.

GuybrushThreepwoodMP · 09/05/2015 21:18

My dd can be quite hitty with me too. I don't think it's anything to do with going to work (I work too though). It's just because you're the closest person- they know you're not going to leave no matter what they do. It's a sign of love really that they feel able to show that side of themselves.
My way is dealing with it is to give one warning "If you do that one more time, I will leave the room." I tend to justify it by explaining that there is no reason I should let her hit me, just as she shouldn't tolerate others hitting her and she should always walk away. She tends to get upset when I walk out. Sometimes it fails and I walk out and she doesn't care. Discipline has failed but at least I've put some space between us to stop me getting stressed.
We have a star chart for two main things- gentle hands and listening ears. So at the end of the day, she gets two stars. It tends to help as a reminder: "Where are your gentle hands?" That usually reminds her that if she isn't gentle, she won't get her star. Could be considered bribery but I prefer to call it positive motivation.
Finally I try to remind myself that at this age if something isn't how they want it, they just don't have the emotional maturity to cope and it explodes! It's part of their development- how can they understand where the boundaries are of they don't push them?
Sorry if all that is obvious and patronising. It's something I have been really trying to combat this last couple of weeks so it's been on my mind!

GuybrushThreepwoodMP · 09/05/2015 21:19

My dd is 2.6 so a bit behind your ds so this may not be relevant.

Bristolian1 · 09/05/2015 22:09

Love the scan pics Barbie, brilliant news.
Onefoot that sounds really stressful. No advice from me though as this bean will be my first, but it sounds like you're handling things as well as possible by taking time out/distance.

onefootinthebed · 09/05/2015 22:11

Thanks guy.

I agree it's not because I work. I posted straight after the conversation and I was just so annoyed. We usually just give him the count of three then he is in the naughty chair. When he hits it is just straight in the chair the running and jumping thing is I think just part of him playing but he is just too rough,now that I've calmed down I think I'm going to add to his sticker chart feet on the floor.

We have a chart for listening , tidying and using the potty/toilet. I just wonder if four things are touch. He isn't an unruly child he is very well behaved and loving.

Barbiedoll79 · 10/05/2015 08:57

Awww one foot it's hard but you're not sensitive like guy said they can't express feelings etc but no one should be hit. Hopefully (if this is a new thing) it'll settle soon and maybe your little one picking up on thibgs and if not a new thing then I am sure the phase will pass soon x

Lilliana · 10/05/2015 10:12

Hi can I join you? Had a mc when I was supposed to be 8 weeks. Hospital kept testing me until I got a negative test result and I now have another Bfp! CBD says 1-2 weeks but as I am still in the wtf cycle and we weren't really trying (but not not trying iyswim) I'm a bit all over the place! No idea of due date as I got a positive way before I thought AF was due and emotionally very scared but really happy too!
If I post my dates for everything is there anyone who could have a go at working out a due date or do I just need to wait? Don't really want to call mw yet - I want it to sink in and do another thousand tests to check its really real - I've already done 4 Blush

Amyyy27 · 10/05/2015 10:32

Congrats and welcome lilliana :) feel free to post your dates, someone might be able to give you a rough date but only a scan will let you know for definite (I believe you will be offered a scan with falling pg during wtf cycle but someone might correct me)

Lilliana · 10/05/2015 10:51

Oh I hope so amy thanks for the welcome. I'll pull out my diary and see if anyone has any ideas!

gennibugs · 10/05/2015 12:35

barbie so glad all was well!

lilliana welcome and congratulations! I too got my bfp in my wtf cycle but I had been roughly tracking my ovulation so had a very very rough idea of dates. but my gp referred me to the epu for an early scan to date me properly. post your dates though and we'll see if we can help!

13+4 here and still being sick. Anyone else??

Amyyy27 · 10/05/2015 12:53

Same here genni :(

gennibugs · 10/05/2015 13:33

It's horrid isn't it Amyy. Mines bad enough but i know youve really struggled. Are you still off work? Sad

Amyyy27 · 10/05/2015 14:38

It's bloody awful genni :( no I'm back at work unfortunately! Are you having to work with it?

Lilliana · 10/05/2015 14:54

Sorry for the delay. Went to get my diary and found it was raining in our office/spare room so been trying to sort it out.
Ok tmi but hope it makes sense to someone.

April 3rd brown spotting
April 5th red blood
April 7th lost sac
April 8th scan confirmed total mc
April 20th negative test.
May 7th positive test (ic)
May 10th CBD 1-2 weeks

Sorry to hear about sickness. Atm I'm hoping for a little but not too much! Hope it eases soon.

GuybrushThreepwoodMP · 10/05/2015 15:41

Was April 20th first negative test Liliana? I mean did you so one a couple of days before that and it was positive? Same for bfp on 7th? I'd guess you ovulated about the 23rd making you about 4+3. I would go with that as an estimate but I've heard that if you conceive during wtf, they will probably give you an early scan to try and date so I'd call them up and ask for one to be scheduled in about 3 weeks. If you go to gp, they might refer you. Congratulations!

Bristolian1 · 10/05/2015 16:03

Welcome and congratulations on your BFP liliana! I agree with Guy re your dates Smile
