Hi everyone! wow this is WORK keeping up with this thread!! but i'm committed!
Got a headache, think it's dehydration despite drinking bottles of water today, feels like it wasn't enough and just downed one of those big sports cap bottles in a one-er! Boobs like boulders GinaFB i went for ugly, big bra this morning which was stashed at the back of my knicker drawer in case it was needed again (I was so in denial about wanting another). Ugly isn't the word but god the instant relief of wearing a soft, scaffolding proportioned bra was immense! Can't recommend it highly enough! Bye bye anything even marginally low cut, the top of each triangle almost reaches my shoulder blades..
WalkOnBy I too had a faint positive 4 days before AF and as everyone here is saying, a faint positive is a positive! On due day it was a big fat positive! I expect like everything else we are all slightly different in when the HGC levels are apparent. Congratulations!
HazB I agree, the symptoms come and go, as for focus, my head has already gone to mush, getting words out of my mouth in the correct order or even FINDING the words is challenging! Pregnancy head... don't remember it starting this early on. Carabee the symptoms do come and go, good luck with your appt on Thurs.
Maybee lindamgwr good luck!
linz17xxx clareanna good luck, I feel for you and everyone else who has had an MC
Grumpling Cute way to tell your news! I'm hoping to keep this news from my work and consequently a lot of my friends till 5 months, am I being unrealistic?! I've been buying some clever (non maternity) tunics which are going to hide beginnings of a bump very well!
banana Good luck, everything x'd for you, I understand how scary this must be for you. I found your question about how can you love another really interesting. I too already have one DC and I have wondered the same. I remember my sister telling me she felt exactly the same when she found out she was expecting her second. She said that she wondered how on earth she could love another as much but she said once he was born she discovered that she had even more love in her, more love than she realised she had and that the love just instantaneously increased! I always remember that cos I thought it was lovely. So yes, these feelings are perfectly normal. I'm feeling excited for DD to have a sibling, I'm seeing poppy seed as being a gift to us all!
applecharlotte how lovely that your due date is the day before OH! It could end up being the same day! The 11th is also significant for me as it was my dad's birthday, he died 6 years ago so I very much saw it all as meant to be (as I am wont to do!)
Dee36 I too find eating a bit of a challenge and as for earl grey being my nectar, i'm off that too, I'll have to change my name! starflowergirl LOL mushroom cuppasoup with the bits strained out! hope you're feeling better. So pleased for you re. how well it went telling your dad! He must be so made up :-)
