We have been trying 8 months and I realised today that my period was a day late. Took a test and nearly fell over from shock with I saw two little lines! We're so happy! Anyone else due June 2018? It's a little early as I'm due the 1st!

Hope your scan went well @carlyb its so nerve wracking isnt it!

carlyb · 02/11/2018 19:43

@Swisbest2 it was so nerve racking I had a melt down in the car park before we went in and then in the room when the Sonographers put on the screens so we could see out little baby! Can't believe it I am in ore and keep crying with happiness x

Swisbest2 · 02/11/2018 20:35

Ahhh congratulations its amazing isnt it 😍

Hello all! I think this is my first time posting on this thread - got my BFP three weeks ago after 8 months TTC. First baby due June 20th!

Does anyone else feel like they are showing really early?! I looked down at my tummy today and was shocked! It looks properly round. I know this is probably mostly bloat...!

Spargle · 03/11/2018 06:01

I’m definitely “showing” - I look about 20 weeks. And I’ve had to buy maternity trousers (under bump) because I can’t stand anything pressing anywhere on my abdomen at the moment, probably due to the combination of my weirdness and morning sickness (morning my arse). I’ve also had to buy braces because there’s no way these trousers are staying up otherwise. I am so sexy right now. I’m 6+6, by the way, and the part of my abdomen where the baby lives is flat as a pancake beneath the fat!

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 10:06

It wouldn't surprise me if you ladies were starting ti show a little. Have you had scans yet?

We think I'm starting to show (I'm 9+4 and it's hard to tell what's fat, bloat or baby!) but I'm carrying twins.

carlyb · 03/11/2018 10:37

I'm starting to show too...but I just feel fat!!

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 11:10

Just dawned on me long wait til next scan 26th nov when i should be 13 weeks 😐 absolutely terrified. Why does everybody always make out that pregnancy is so easy and problem free!

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 11:11

9w4 today too @squiff70 snap. How you feeling?

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 13:29

@Swisbest2 - very emotional! You?

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 14:26

@squiff70 same. Cried last night because i couldnt atop thinking about all my dead pets and rspca adverts have made me so sad i feel physically sick. Also bad waves of sickness throughout the day and impatient lol

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 14:31

@Swisbest2- aww! I cry too sometimes when I think about pets I've lost. I have four pets now and three of them are very old (dog is 15, one rabbit 10.5 and hamster nearly 3 and declining day by day). It's okay to cry, especially if you're feeling sick, drained and vulnerable.

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 15:51

Haha thanks @squiff70 sounds like a lovely little gang 😁 yeah i guess anybody would lol if they were constantly feeling ill tired worried and cant have wine lol

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 17:14

@Swisbest2 - how very true that is. What I'd do for a glass of buck's fizz, lol!

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 17:25

@squiff70 the stoptober thing has been my excuse for not socialising and now its over im just sayjng im knackered this weekend (true) and i only get 1 in 4 off so just have to keep it up lol

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 17:27

@Swisbest2, never mind Stoptober, have you heard about No Nut November??????

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 20:06

Hahaha @squiff70 no i havent what is that all about or am i being dumb 🤔

Squiff70 · 03/11/2018 20:12

@Swisbest2 you're not being dumb at all! I only found out about it today from a friend who had my crying with laughter.

Here's what my friend said...

"It basically means he's got to refrain from masturbating until December 1st, lol. And if I know him like I think I do, he's gonna struggle. It's funny seeing him post updates on it though. "Day 2, work toilets look mighty tempting at the moment." "Day 3, Diane Abbott is starting to look sexy right now"."

CritterTamer · 03/11/2018 20:17

I hate those RSPCA ads too - they always made me cry even when i wasn’t pumped full of hormones! Currently sitting in bed feeling very queasy with all three of my (very large) dogs trying to pile on top of me because they’re terrified of the fireworks going off outside!

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 20:18

@squiff70 oh my god. This is perfect hes currently whinging because ive banned sex for the weekend (feel so bloated tired and sick) i dont think he could cope with that or myself when 1st dec comes for that matter lol...

Swisbest2 · 03/11/2018 20:24

@crittertamer ahh poor things i remember carrying my staffy up a steep road for half an hour because she was so scared of some random birthday fireworks

CritterTamer · 06/11/2018 06:30

Morning all

I had a scan yesterday at 6 weeks 4 days - 2 lovely heartbeats seen (even I could see them this time), both measuring fine, and my OHSS is starting to get better, liver and kidneys are clear Of fluid now so all is well so far 😊 hoping to be able to stop the painful blood thinner injections on a Friday after another scan - hooray!

Hope everyone else is doing ok xxx

Swisbest2 · 06/11/2018 06:55

Thats lovely 😊 its emotional isnt it. Glad all is well

Iswallowtoothpaste · 06/11/2018 09:35

@Critter that’s wonderful news!

Squiff70 · 06/11/2018 18:51

@CritterTamer - so so happy for you! Hope you're not being too sick today.
