Im 7+1 :flower:

How exciting, scans are both exciting and terrifying! Im hoping to get one soon, going to ask the mw when i see her on Sat, just to put my mind at rest a bit x
 
Oh I really hope it's a boy!! I have 3 girls and my Family is HUGE and sooo many girls! It would be so awesome to have a boy. I personally don't really know much about raising a boy but this is our last and it would be really cool to at least know how it feels to raise both sexes. My husband thinks boy, and the people that we have told have all just said thu think its a boy so that's got my hopes up! Buuuut I also know that the odds are against me. All my sisters are married into families of boys and They still had girls. Two of them now have a boy each but still- we just don't make many boys lol my baby will make 21 grand kids for my parents and onl half of their kids have had kids!! There's 13 of us and 20 grand kids and out of the 20 there is only 2 boys! So I think the whole family would really love to have a little boy to spoil :)
 
WOW 13 of you! Did you enjoy growing up as part of such a large family? Id love more but this has to be our last x
 
That's funny me an the mw were saying today how we felt more awful with ms and headaches etc while carrying girls (she had had 3 and bad ms all through 2 boys hardly any ms ) I was felt a lot better with my son. She was convinced ladies who carried girls had more ms and pregnancy symptoms. I tend to agree.
I feel okay at the moment hardly any ms I have a feeling this little one is going to be a boy :cloud9:

Ms_k hormones can kick in at any time and like Lora said, even if they haven't youre allowed to blame them anyway :haha:
 
Well if this is a boy I agree 100%! I was soooo sick with all the girls and it lasted sooo long! This one I have felt nothin but tired! Exhausted! And then dizzy in the Mornings a little, besides today's sickness. I feel better since I ate though :) whew!

And yes 13 kids and my mom suffered 9 mc's. It was very sad to watch and go through with her but I love having a big family. We live in a small town so the family seems even bigger when we all get together and being our kids. Haha I have been pregnant with my mom three times so the older ones of us that have kids have siblings younger than our kids. It's weird but it's normal to us now. My kids aunts are in kindergarten and 3rd grade at the same school as they are in 1st,2nd and 4th lol it's always a lot of explaining! Lol I can't even imagine how many grand kids there will be by the time the younger half of the 13 of us starts having kids! We don't buy for any adults at holidays just the young ones and once we have more we decided we will just draw names and buy that way, otherwise we would all be totally broke. Good thing my mom is crafty and we have all been able to make most of the gifts at home and still have them be really neat
 
Ugh I'm right there with you all on the nausea, and I've just been :sick: I hate being sick, it makes me cry every time- I'm such a baby:haha:

Is anyone else finding they feel worse in the afternoon? I felt mildly icky this morning, but now feel horrible, headachey & knackered. I want to go to bed, but I'm going over to my mums.

Can I take paracetamol? I know ibruofen isn't allowed, but I get confused between aspirin & paracetamol, isn't aspirin the blood thinner?
 
Wow tower! 13 brothers & sisters, your mum must be amazing! So only 9 more to go for you then :winkwink:

Don't take aspirin at all. Paracetamol is safe :) x

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 :(

Uh oh honey, why are you nervous? :hugs:
 
What a lovely big family tower!

Zowiey I defo feel worse as the day goes on. I think it's as I grow more tired.
 
Lol yes huge family :)

#4 is the final or us. I have a weird thing about even and odd kids- soley based on dumb reasoning like- what is we went to Disneyland or six flags and then one kid doesn't have someone to ride with I sit with haha not that we can ever afford that kind of travel or vacation haha but I'm just wierd I think lol

I also am having a horrible headache today! I think I'm dehydrated. I was told the only thing we can take is Tylenol. Do you guys have that or is that what you are talking about too?
 
Does anyone have a mild taste of blood in their mouth? I always remember reading about the metallic taste some people get in pregnancy but never had it before :shrug:
 
Tower... What a huge family! We have all girls as well, with huge age gaps. My mom and aunt are 15 yes apart, my sister and I are 13yrs apart, and my two nieces are 6 yes apart. My aunt and sister are 5yrs apart and my oldest niece and I are 5yrs apart.

Afm... Had my first mw appt today. Eventhing went great! I only saw the mw for a minute but it's a teaching hospital and the mw-in training was wonderful! My uterus is measuring a week ahead, which is reassuring. She also gave me a script to get an ultrasound. Feeling much better about everything now!

Who else has had an appt. thus far?

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.

Oh no I have to have the gdt test with both mine I'm dreading this one I'll take both kids so they scream and play up lol
 
I never had morning sickness with Gertie or Grayson but this time i constantly feel sick and gone right off food ( apart from cockles )

On a brighter note I know it's soo early but it was a bargain I have got one of my cribs tonight my ebay bargain!
