I'm only getting faint lines on tests and am 3weeks +6 so haven't even missed my period yet but I'm feeling mild nausea after eating already! Yikes!! Also I'm going to the toilet about 10 times a day which is very unusual for me. Also I'm dreaming every night which isn't usual for me!

I've got really bad hayfever but have stopped my antihistamines now and trying the nasal spray instead! Eek!

Lots of march mummy's already I've been feeling so tired I had a nap yesterday and will most likely have another today x I've still been getting stabbing pains across my lower stomach above my pubic bone but I've seen it could be just stretching there but of to get checked out at the doctors because I haven't seen a midwife yet just waiting for them to give me a call for a appointment when do you usely get your first appointment and what should I expect? I'm a first time mummy to be ? x

I can't remember really! I don't think they see you much in the early days. I think I had one appointment before my first scan.
My GP reception said you don't even see a GP anymore, you self refer by filling out a form at reception!!

I think it can be normal to spot when your period is due! Take it easy! X

I first saw the midwife at 10 weeks for my booking appointment. Think everywhere is different though.

Our normal midwives here say after 8w for first appt now. I always go under EPU for early care tho, so don't usually bother with my midwife until 10w or later.

Anyone else's hormones turning them into a raging b***h? Sorry, couldn't think of a better way to put it lol. I completely forgot how unreasonable I get when I'm pregnant. Today, I feel like screaming at everyone, crying then going back to bed for the day

ME! I'm very conscious that my house is about to turn into a warzone. Every time I'm pregnant I just go loopy.




I've already seen my midwife (day after positive test) and I'm seeing her again on Friday. It definitely differs, this is the first time I've been pregnant at my current GP practice as I moved but the last one wouldn't even entertain you until you were 8 weeks isn. The one I've met said she likes the girls to come in early

Hello and welcome to our newest members!

DrMum, I'm so so sorry for your loss

Ruthb, I agree, March is a great month to be born! My birthday is March 10th and have a always loved having a March birthday. My 2 boys birthdays are in September, so it will be nice to have this one in a different month to be frank! It was starting to become a family joke that oh only gets laid at Christmas time

So what are everyone's plans for today? I've got my mum and mil coming over for dinner and I'm meant to be popping into town to get myself some more leggings as my jeans are too tight now

Both of my boys have winter birthdays so I was hoping for a June/July/August baby but we were still TTC all months regardless because deep down I don't care that much, I just want a baby! My main reason for wanting a summer baby was the yard saleing. I love yard saleing and I can get almost brand new stuff for next to nothing! But no worries - I can buy the newborn essentials and yard sale for the toys and 3-6+ clothes come summer. March works perfectly for me

I actually have a baby shower to go to today. I'm looking forward to it because some of my friends will be there tbat I haven't seen in some time. The mother-to-be has been TTC for 7 years! So this is going to be a huge party. Yay! I'm going to have baby fever even more after today!

Over here in most places near me, you see a nurse at 8-10 weeks where she takes your history and you go to the lab to have blood drawn to check all your hormone levels and also have an HIV test. You also pee in a cup and they do a UA on that. Then at that appointment you make your first appointment with the doc for around 12 weeks. I've already been going to the lab and will have an ultrasound around 6 weeks though to check for heartbeat/development because of my history of losses.

That sounds great!

Thank goodness the doctor said 387 for some reason I'm thinking did she mean 38.7 but she would of said that if she did coz she said low for 4 weeks??Slightly paranoid after bleed I think :/

 

[dan-o]

387 is high! If it helps, mine was quite high with ds2, 198 at 13dpo, and 411 at 15dpo. I was testing positive from 7dpo with him! By 6 weeks I was at 106k

With ds1 it was the other way and only 54 at 12dpo!

Morning girls, we are just waking up this side of the Atlantic! Hope you're all having a great weekend! This weekend for us is some house reno's and I really need to weed my vegetable garden as my spinach is disappearing! We've had so much rain everything has just taken off.

My three year old asked me this morning if there were "two babies in my tummy"- he doesn't even know I'm pregnant yet. Kind of made of worry a) about the bloat and b) about children's sixth sense with these things.... Twins would freak me out haha!

I always love hearing what everyone else gets up to...thanks for all the updates!

Thanks everyone for the kind words too !

Anyway have a great Sunday everyone!
