Catching up with those from TTC thread

[MrsC87]

Just wanted to catch up with everyone from the TTC thread. I know some of us have July due dates and others August due dates, so wanted to check in with you all!
How are you all doing?
@Delilah7 @Crossfitgirl @RanchoRelaxo @sunshine1987 @SullyWifey
Sorry if I have forgotten anyone, please add them in ❤️

Morning lovely, all ok here, just waiting patiently for symptoms to kick in so I feel something. Was saying to @crossfitgirl that i’ll regret saying that lol. How are you? xx

@cookiewaffle join us xx

@mrsof20118

I was the same at 5 weeks, no symptoms which is why I got the early scan. But week 7 nearly 8 and the tiredness is unreal!! @sunshine1987 going to bed at 7.30 and sleeping 12 hours other than waking up millions of times for a pee!
Thanks for adding, baby brain couldn't remember everyone!
Enjoy the no symptoms for now 😜

Oh hey ladies! Thanks for inviting me :)

You can have all my symptoms if you like! The nausea has gone down now but the cramps just never go away and I just feel like I'm coming down with something all the time! I can't wait to move house this weekend....

Hi guys! So strange I was literally thinking of starting this thread yesterday, I even started getting everyone's names together 😂 it's my booking in appointment this afternoon and I am approx 8 weeks now :)

You've a busy weekend then @CookieWaffle have you lots of people helping you?
@RanchoRelaxo I'm 8 weeks tomo. Good luck with the booking appointment, I found it made it all very real 😳

Hey guysss! Oh it's nice to have familiar faces and a small thread, I can't keep up with the pregnancy one I'm on at all!
Am I the earliest here at 4+4?

I had really bad cramping and sore nipples for a few days but it's completely subsided now... I actually went part of the day today forgetting i was pregnant! @sunshine1987 have you had any at all? I'm a bit freaked that mine were there and have now gone... but as you say I'll probably regret it in a couple of weeks!

So happy to see you all on here:-) @ranchorelaxo is that the first midwife appointment? Exciting! Xxx

@crossfitgirl I had really sore boobs and cramps when I first found out but been feeling absoloutely fine since. I’ve been temping still so I know it’s all ok at the moment so not worrying, having spoken to a few people they didn’t get anything until 6 weeks xx

@sunshine1987 hopefully if it's the same for both of us it's a sign it's normal. Plus we might just be lucky and have none throughout... who knows! My friend said all of her pregnancies were totally different, some she was sick as a dog, others she was fine. I have stopped temping, I think I'd over-analyze every .01 drop and worry too much. I'm happy with the fact AF has still not come :-) are you still using FF?

I'll be around the 6 week mark when we go away for my birthday for the weekend. I can feel a sods law coming on!!

One of the early birds here at 16+1😍 starting to enjoy this pregnancy business now. The sickness is still getting me down but all feels worth it now I've felt the first baby flutters❤ congratulations to you all xxx

@crossfitgirl yeah I am, too be honest I’ve surprised myself with how chilled out I am being. I know I’ve got no control over anything so just trying to enjoy it whilst I’m in the nice stages of pregnancy xx

@bettyhop so glad everything’s going well 💜

Thank you @bettyhop wow that's gone fast! 16 weeks! Do you have a scan pic?
@cookiewaffle we moved 3 weeks ago, not fun but great to be in before Xmas! but you must be soooo excited to be moving into your family home with a premade little family inside you! Good luck and I hope it goes smoothly :-) xx
@sunshine1987 chilled is the way forward! I feel a lot less anxious than I did a week ago. Like you say, everything is totally out of our control... so best just enjoy the ride whatever it may bring xx

@MrsC87 family is coming up so we'll have lots of hands at the ready :)

@Crossfitgirl thanks :) and yes, although I think DP is grieving for his man cave that he was hoping for!

I haven't told my family yet but I suspect it may come out when they wonder why I'm so exhausted this weekend!

@cookiewaffle haha totally get that - DH wanted a "games room" which is now probably gonna be the nursery lol. (Not the walk in wardrobe I had wanted to be fair haha)

I'm sure you're family will be over the moon - will you tell them or will you see if they notice anything?
We plan to tell parents and close family at Christmas- I'll be 7 weeks then x

*your, not you're. Lol.

@Crossfitgirl I've been planning out the new house and given him options for how we can make it work with what he wants :) He's got a year before he loses his new room anyway!

I'm gonna hold off and see if i have to give in and tell. I'm still skeptical that this is real yet! I'm still expecting to wake up with AF...

Booking in went great thanks :) we have got the first scan on the 2nd Jan!
@Crossfitgirl I have had cramping on an off, mostly in the first few weeks though, and my sore boobs have been mostly sore, but a few days they have felt normal, think it's normal for symptoms to come and go!
@Bettyhop woo 16 weeks! Can't believe it's that far!
@CookieWaffle good luck for the move, I know how stressful it is! Never mind moving when preggers!

It is soooo nice seeing familiar names again. I can't keep up with the pregnancy thread and whenever I comment it's just lost in all their ongoing conversations unfortunately.
I didn't comment too regularly on the ttc thread but followed since July.
Currently 5+6 and off work today with horrendous nausea. Yet to actually be sick though.
Hope everyone has got more used to the idea of being pregnant now! Xx

Thanks @RanchoRelaxo! Glad your booking in went well :) xx

Hey @SenoraSurf looks like you're a few days ahead of me. I hope that's not what's to come for me next week! Does your work know yet?

@senorasurf nausea is so much worse than actually being sick 😔 hope you’re alright. Funny how we all feel so different at around the same time, I’m waiting patiently (not) to feel something pregnancy related xx

Thanks @ranchorelaxo that's reassuring, it's like I started to feel pregnant but now I don't! My body teasing me! @cookiewaffle are you just over 5 weeks? I'll be 5 weeks on Sunday. This week has gone soooo slowly! @senorasurf I still can't quite believe it, I don't think it will sink in properly until we have a scan - or I get sick! Has it sunk in for you? Hope you start to feel better soon. Nausea is awful... I would not be able to cope im so pathetic. Do you think you'd feel any better if you were actually sick?
@sunshine1987 sounds like we have it cushy for now... hehe

@Crossfitgirl I guess I'm 5+2 ish.I'm not sure how to work it out!

DP's work has given us a bottle of rose champagne which looks amazing. One glass would be OK right??....

@CookieWaffle it's horrid. Literally felt like I've been on a rollercoaster all week (and I HATE rollercoasters!). I've not told work yet but just got my booking appointment through for next Thursday. Contemplating telling my head teacher but not 100% decided yet.

@sunshine1987 it's crazy how our bodies work! Hopefully you'll get some nice reassuring 'yes I'm pregnant' symptoms, but not horrid symptoms.

@Crossfitgirl totally know what you mean. A scan will be the cherry on the cake lol. I must admit, I'm struggling. I also can't do up my trousers with all the bloat. I'm a size 6/8 so it looks like I've eaten a big Christmas dinner every hour of the day. I wish I could be sick (probably naive of me to think), but I honestly feel like I'd feel better if I could puke and crack on with my day! We shall see what comes of the next few weeks

@CookieWaffle I don't think baby shares your blood directly yet so alcohol won't harm baby as it would later in pregnancy? X
