Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

Hello people :)

Sorry you're feeling rubbish Lora :( hope the kids are better soon :hugs:

Laura... How inconsiderate lol

Congrats ciaramoy :happydance: and welcome!

Miss_kseniya it's normal Hun, your hormones fluctuate so some days you'll feel worse than others :flower:

Congrats on all the new milestones girls! :)

AFM I had my first mw appt today it was great, I had the mw who came out to me to monitor my Bp when I was pregnant with poppy so we had a good old natter wile filling my notes out. No mention of my weight (I'm really obese) but no one ever does seem to mention it :shrug: maybe I just see nice people lol
She had already filled a lot of my notes out for the hospital I want to give birth at. As she knew I'd want to go there again so that was something I needn't have worried about :thumbup:
The only thing m dreading is the gdt when I was pregnant before you just had a blood test 2 hours after you'd eaten but now it's changed and its the full gtd where you fast and have a blood test then a yucky sugary drink wait 2hours and have another blood test..... Man I'm dreading that :cry: I'm such a baby with needles.

Oh well all in all a good appt... Oh and 12 week scan booked for the 1st may.
 
Hope your kids are better soon lora, I feel your pain, my son appears to have a stomach bug :dohh:

Glad your booking in appointment went well gemie and she sorted out the hospital for you. Exciting having a scan date too.

Welcome to the new ladies.

Xx
 
At my first mw appt. Waiting to be called. I'm a nervous mess!
 
Hope you & kiddies feel better soon Lora :hugs:

I'm jealous of all the mw appointments, my gp said I had to wait until after I had my 8 week scan as anything could go wrong!!!!! She's such a bitch! I mean really, like I'm not aware of what could go wrong, and I was told to ring my gp, by the ivf clinic, hardly like I'm trying to jump the queue (wow! Totally could not think how to spell queue! Is that even right?!!)

Good luck kd, I'm sure it will be fine!

Is anyone else really spotty? I've got loads, I'm not to bothered, but I just don't really get spotty normally :shrug:
 
Gem, Ive had to have the sugary drink with all of mine- even Caitlyn and that'll be coming up 13 years ago. Mind you that time i did puke up and nearly pass out in the car park :wacko: Back then it was 3 hours too, they drew blood 3 times an hour apart, and then i had to have it repeated because id been sick, not good!

Teacup hope your appt goes well!

Lovehearts, oh dear, hope your little boy is better soon and that he doesnt pass it on to you or anyone else in the family!

Grrrrr Zowiey thats really annoying. I hate GPs like that! I was really spotty around the 4 week mark but theyve since cleared up!

So, does everyone else have to fill in their own green notes these days? We never used to have to, the mw used to do it, but now they send you away to fill them in yourself although they do go through it with you. I still have to pick mine up and get them filled in before Sat when she comes!
 
I'm so jealous of you UK ladies having easy access to midwives! I'd love to use a mw buy there's only one practice in my town and we've had horrible luck with them :( obgyn it is I suppose. My normal gyno called to discuss the results of an ultrasound I had before I got pregnant. I'm nervous now :(
 
Went to the doctor this morning to register my pregnancy, he said he will send off for my dating scan and to make an appointment with the MW. Tried to do that and was told the system has changed and the midwife will call me to arrange my booking in appt in about 2 weeks! So now I have to sit and wait for them to ring - doesn't make any sense the system was much easier before.

The doctor refused to give me anything for my cough (didn't really think he would) but made me laugh when he saifd "the reason you have a cough is because you have a cold" - good to see years of medical training has made him so knowledgeable :rolleyes: when I said I was worried as my abdominal area and lower back hurt when I cough now and could it be dangerous for the baby his answer was "we just don't know" he totally dismissed the idea of getting an early scan so looks like if we want one we will have to pay for a private one - thats £89 I can do without having to pay out right now :(

That sucks! Your doctor is an arse too they get paid thousands to give advice like that :grr:

Did the Benadryl work?
 
Loraloo I've got to fill in my own notes too, we have yellow up here in the northeast :) I cant stop looking at them lol even my container for my wee sample gets me completely excited haha :)

I'm dreading it even more now :haha:


The mw filled my notes in for me :shrug:
 
Sorry :haha:

I think its a time saving thing that you have to do it yourself, i just sometimes worry that some mums wont be able to understand the terminology iykwim? I know the mw checks it but :shrug:

Thats brilliant Peanut :) Hope you see the little heartbeat flickering away x
 
Well after my silly worries this morning, the familiar achey full feeling is back and boobs are a bit sore again, so feeling pregnant again haha.

Can I ask to those who have already got kids......when do irriational crazy hormones normally kick in? Have to admit that I feel pretty chilled out at the moment and things that normally would annoy me seem to be fine, almost amusing to me. I know loads of friends who were a hormonal mess most of the time. Am I a bit too early at 5+4 for hormones?
 
Oh man I am nauseas this morning!! I didn't wake up to eat in the middle of the night (pathetic I know) lol and by the time I woke I was soooooo sick feeling. Trying to stomach food but it's so hard when u feel like throwing up! This is my first real sick moment. I'm feeling better as I eat but I wake up with the worst headaches and thats what makes me feel nauseas I think. I guess I can handle it though, I'm almost 8 weeks and this is the first really sick moment and only had 2 other very small waves of nausea so I'm taking it and being thankful I'm not suffering ms like I did the last 3 pregnancies! It lasted till 5 months with my girls!!!! All 3! I would lay at the toilet huge and pregnant at 5 months holding my belly crying "oh please baby, go easy on me, please share my body more nicely with me"

My hat's off to all of you girls who have full blown ms! anyone else having these headaches? They feel like a hangover kind of...
 
They'll hit around 6 weeks and then intensify. And hate to say but idk if they ever go completely away. Lol I thought I seemed totally balanced and normal and "not pregnant" this time but yesterday I cried at the radio show that was on in the car, and in bed I cried when I thought hubby was mean, and again watching a movie. This all being said hike ou hour know that I am NOT a crier. Well I wasn't before kids! When I was little I would get punished and spanked because Rey thought I wasn't remorseful because I never cried when my sisters would cry instantly when getting yelled at lol but I got pregnant with my first and I cry all the time! Haha ahhh the joys Of being a girl
 
Miss K, NEVER too early for hormones. And if you are, you can still use them as an excuse :haha::winkwink: lol.

Ive noticed this week (7) Ive become really emotional and hormones are really kicking in. Sickness has also been alot worse today too x

Tower- my sickness has always been worse with my girls. Think we might be having boys? I think im carrying another boy. No headaches here but my friend is 11 weeks and suffering with them x
