August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

I can't believe I can join this thread lol. I got my first BFP on wed's but didn't count it until today seeing the word "pregnant" on my clear blue test. Been trying since september 2012 so been a while. Still doesn't feel real, keep expecting something to go wrong or to wake up but fingers crossed :)

My due date should be 9th of Aug going by my last period.
 
Congrats hun!

Worked Black Friday today and I am sooo tired!!! My nipples are starting to hurt a little, i'm starving, eat a massive meal, and am still starving!! No MS yet.

5 weeks today! Happy 5 weeks to all of my other beautiful due date buddies, and 5 weeks is coming up QUICK for the rest of you!!! :)

I went Black Friday shopping today and I felt terrible for everyone who was working... I wish it was like it used to be, where it was early Friday morning, not from the middle of Thursday to Saturday early AM... I went to our K-Mart here at 2am and the worker there told me their store would be opened for 48 hours straight! Awful. I wouldn't have even gone if I wasn't so stretched on funds this month -_-

My boobs have started to hurt today too and I've been eating whatever I can find... no MS either, but I never had any with any of my other pregnancies so crossing my fingers that stays the same for both of us! :D


xEmmaDx - I'm feeling the same way too! I was kind of iffy about my :bfp: until I took the digital last night and this morning and saw the 'pregnant 1-2' on it ^_^ Congrats girl! I think things will start sinking in after the first ultrasound... I can't wait for it! ^_^

Congrats to all the new :bfp: August girls!! So happy to see so many August mommies to be! ^_^
 
I'm hoping this will feel more real after my doctor's appointment on the 3rd. I also am hoping to get an u/s date....really wanting it before Christmas. I won't tell anyone before we see a heartbeat, so hopefully we can go before and tell our family for Christmas. I will have to keep it quiet from my girls though, it would be devastating to have to tell them something went wrong. Really hoping these next few weeks go by fast!
 
:hugs: Addy i'm sure everything will be perfect but understand you being worried :hugs:
 
I understand that Addy :)
I told my mother because of losing my father recently this year... but then she proceeded to tell everyone... even when I told her I'd like to wait incase we MC like we did the last one... but nope, after she found out I told my sister too, she told my brothers, her own brother, her parents, and then my father's mother... who is very sensitive to us and immediately jumped off the deep end -_- I told her to wait wait wait until the u/s! She agreed... but then told everyone anyway... ugh! lol


Hey I have a question for you girls!

I know I've been preggo before, but it's been... well almost 4 years lol
Are you girls feeling anything moving around? I'm not talking about kicking or anything like that, I'm talking about feeling your organs move around. The other day I had this terrible painful feeling, like as if my kidney rolled into my stomach and then up into my rib cage! ugh! Kind of like a bubble just inside your ribs rolling around...

I've also been having a lot of pressure on my midsection...

I had a c-section with my last son so I was thinking it was maybe a reaction to my uterus slowly growing and reacting to the old scars but can't help but think, 'It's too early for that!' lol
 
Can't say I've felt anything like that! That sounds pretty violent lol.
I had a cs at the start of the year too.
This will be my second christmas in a row I can't drink and eat all the goodies!

Oh wow :)
Well, you can still get all the cookies and cakes! lol
I'm not a big drinker... my big thing is planning out vacations during the summer, we went to Myrtle Beach SC this year, but I'll be stuck at home not wanting to move this summer! lol

And yes it does feel pretty violent! lol the best way I guess I could describe it for 2nd and 3rd time moms... it's like having a baby foot or hand stuck up under the ribs and then moving around. I'm certainly not that big and there's no way I miscalculated my dates! lol LMP was Halloween and it was as normal as normal could be so I don't think I misinterpreted that at all...

I think I might call my new OB on Monday and see if he'll see me a little sooner due to the previous MC... just kind of weirded out by the feeling... can't get comfortable at all! lol
 
I'm scared guys, my period is due tomorrow and i'm scared it comes. I only have the cheap tests left today so took one this morning and it was still positive (faint but all my cheaps were) and I think i saw a little discharge like i get before my period is coming. Is this normal or am I out?
 
Hi, can I tentatively join? AF isn't due until tomorrow but have two faint BFPs. I have a history of ectopic and early miscarriage so I can't get too excited yet.

Starting to have waves of nausea but nothing major. Main thing is heavy feeling in my uterus area / cramps.

I'll be due 10th August.

Discharge is very normal in pregnancy. In my last pregnancy I had a lot of watery yellowy discharge for the first trimester. Have the lines been getting darker on your tests? Your HCG levels should double every day so you should get a definite progression of darker lines. FX'd for you hun!
 
Clynn please can you change my EDD to 2nd Aug? I know when I ovulated but the midwife will go by LMP so I'll get confused lol!

yeah the first response i took yesterday was pretty dark. Yesterday was the first I took and let myself believe i was pregnant, I don't have any tests left apart from the cheap ones so going to get some more. I'm just so scared it's going to end bad.
 
I think HCG levels are supposed to double every 48 hours plus you need to take into account the variation of each test. Try not to worry.
 
Trying so hard not to worry and relax but I've wanted this for so long I'm just scared it's going to end badly. After getting this far it would kill me. Known my luck that's what will happen.
 
Oops sorry Kirin is right, every 48 hours. :)

Try not to worry. Dark tests are good :) and, yeah, each brand will have a different sensitivity. If you don't have any FRERs left, I'd wait until after AF should have come then go get more FRERs to put your mind at rest.
 
I bought some more clear blue tests online yesterday so I could see it saying how many weeks again (want to see more than 1-2 weeks next time) so I suppose I'll just have to wait it out and hope for the best for now.
 
Emma try not stress on tests, it's out of your hands anyway xx even if your tests fade and you think miscarriage is eminent there's nothing you could do to prevent it.
Also bear in mind cb digi are only 82.3% accurate and that's with an allowable variance of +/- 5 days either way. So for 17.7% of people it'll be out by more than 5 days. And even if your in the 82.3% they work for it can be up to 5 days out
 
Hi ladies,

Can I join please? :) I got a very faint BFP last night (10dpo) on a cheapie and followed it up with a blazing clear FRER and a digital 1-2 weeks. I'm 11dpo today and a little nervous for this little one. Hope it's a sticky bean!

I'm due August 12th. Very excited about that! We were trying now so that we could hopefully conceive a summer holiday baby. I'm a teacher and I want my maternity leave to start in September of the new school year. So the timing couldn't have been anymore perfect.

I haven't really got any symptoms: I've sort of gone off food a bit. Not nauseous, but just gone off food (happened last time too). I have slightly tender breasts and a few cramps. I'm also quite emotional, but that's it.

Looking forward to getting to know you ladies over the next 9 months or so! Happy and healthy nine months to you all.

xx
