The, 'Im happy and thinking positive' thread

I dont think negativity is the right way to describe it. Scared and hormonal maybe.

Oh I so need some positive energy right now. Thank you to the OP for creating this thread. Major for you x

I giggle everytime i see your little picture. So cute!

Yay! I did one of these awhile ago too!

Some positive percentages that I have researched:

1: You have a 70% chance of having a happy, healthy, baby from the moment you find out you are pregnant.
2. Once you hear the heartbeat via doppler that percentage rises to 95%!


I have been focusing on the bigger percentages that I will have a normal pregnancy. Not the lower ones that I won't.

I had 2 MCs last year, but this pregnancy is a whole new one and I want to think positive and believe this one will work out and I will get an extra special early christmas present.

Lets think positive

Thank you for posting this

I know that the first trimester is fraught with worry, there are so many things for us pregnant ladies to get hung up on and worry about and it can be a very stressful time - god knows I have the occasional freak-out every couple of days.....

It's also good to remember the wonderful things about being pregnant - there are good points, right?

Here are my few....

* The fact that it is 'our little secret' for the time being until we announce it 'officially' (although, as OHs mum has just about told the entire village it might not be quiet for long )

* Playing the 'i'm pregnant' card to OH and getting him to do things for me... for my own amusement OF COURSE.

* Having snack-attacks and not having to feel outrageously guilty because obviously me & the little one are very hungry and need to keep up our energy - this baby growing is a serious business.

* My boobs are GROWING! (woohooo! - Although, they are very sensitive & sore but every cloud and all that)

* Noticing the tiny small changes that are happening to my body & getting all mushy over the thought of this little miracle.

I could go on for ages but you get the idea....

I am enjoying it so far - aside from the sore boobs and evening sickness/nausea. Trying not to worry too much and remind myself what will be will be....

WOW Great response everyone

So come on, fess up, who's a hormonal crabby pants?! I am! Seriously the slightest thing makes me cry, shout, scream, cry, cry, cry... Haha!
Then just like that i *SNAP* out of it

I have yet to get my date for a scan to date my pregnancy so far but im not going to get worked up about it and DEMAND it soon! I hope its soon but also just going to keep busy then get a nice, unexpected call with my appointment

Yeah course, im completly like that myself, thats why positive thoughts are better at this time for me, personally.

People get scared off by other peoples worries, which sends them into overdrive panicing about the slightest thing

I just thought it would be nice to lighten the mood if anyone felt they didnt want to read about worries and stresses

Had to giggle out loud there, i have my DH running round after me (for a change!) as i keep the 'Im pregnant' line coming 24/7

Last time round my family used to laugh at me as all i said in the most self pittying voice was 'Im pregnant!' for just about everything. Im totaly going to be the same this time round

Well maybeee...o.k. yes...definately yes. Was flipping channels last night, (so bored); caught part of an episode of Dance Moms were one of the kids dancing slipped and fell on her butt...I cried for her. Then I laughed, (out loud) at myself for crying.

....but that's normal....right????
