I was thinking the same about wanababa according to your ticker you are due July not August.
 
Morning ladies,

LittleMinx my son has just recovered from HFMD. It's a horrible nasty little virus and I hope he gets better soon! My son gave it to me and I had a horrible fever and flu like symptoms, then the sore spots came on my hands, toes (ouch!) and around my mouth. Luckily they didn't last long.

I still have very few symptoms. Have slightly painful boobs, but other than that I don't really feel anything. I did fall asleep yesterday afternoon and the afternoon before. And I've also gone off some foods already, but other than that, not much. I don't know what I'm expecting though, with my son the first real symptoms of pregnancy I got was baby kicks at around 19 weeks and a bumps at around 25 weeks. I had piddly things, like going off meat and some food aversions, but not much!

I haven't bought anything yet (just found out two days ago :) ), but I know I will if I get past the next few weeks. I'll probably buy some sleepsuits and vests in a gender neutral colour. I remember my son going through several a day sometimes with his many blow-outs, so the more the merrier I say!

Birth-wise I would love a natural water birth at the birth centre (at the hospital). I wanted one last time, but I was induced and had to be monitored. I won't set my hopes on it though like I did last time, as I know now that you can plan all you like, but as soon as labour starts, the chances are your plans will fly out the window!

Sorry if this has already been done in this thread, but can we introduce ourselves? I'd love to know a bit more about everyone.

Yay!
I'm Kim, 28 from Australia.
My little boy Jace was born 13.1.13, hopefully can get a cool birthday for this bub too! ( 14.7.14 would be good!)
Hubby and I will have been together 10 years in April, and married 4 years.
We own our home so can do whatever we want to the nursery!!
We are so excited as we really wanted our babas close!
 
Hi ladies, experiencing waves of nausea and still having the mild crampy / achy feeling on and off. I won't do a ticker until I know everything is in the right place.

As for me, I'm Lori, live in the UK. I have a 17 year old (not sure how he'll take the news)! Haven't been with my OH for that long but met him after I split with my ex husband and finally realised what love is.

I have had 2 miscarriages and an ectopic. In all 3 pregnancies I didn't get any sort of line until around 5 weeks. With this one I got a v v v faint line on 10dpo and am only 4 weeks today so hoping an early bfp is good news.
 
Nice to 'meet' you ladies.

Hopefulfor1st that's a pretty cool birthday and you're in with a shot at a cool birthday next time too. With my due date as 12.8.14 I may get a 14.8.14 baby. My son was overdue.

KirinM I'm really sorry for your losses and I agree that the earliness of your BFP is a great sign!

As for me, I'm Charlotte and I'm 29. I live in London with my husband and my little boy Oscar. He's 20 months and the light of my life (to use the cliche :haha:). I'm a primary teacher and planned this baby very carfully so I would have it during the summer holidays. I love crafts and I would love to be a writer one day (it's been my dream since I was ten; I have thousands of stories clogging up my harddrive and a couple of finished novels that I haven't done anything with), but I find I don't have the time to write anymore sadly. I spend way too much time online, so I won't be a stranger to this forum!! Ha!

Am I the only one feeling insomnia? Takes ages to get comfy in bed, I wake several times a night and can't get back to sleep!
 
Im not sleeping very well either. Wake up 3 or so times a night but I've got a cough hanging around from a cold so that's not helping. I was just thinking that apart from occasional waves of nausea and the on / off cramps I'm not feeling very pregnant at all.

I'm Leah, 33 from Suffolk UK. I have 3 kids (14,7 and 4) Been with OH for 10 years in March and are still like love sick teenagers :cloud9:
I'm very lucky to be a SAHM and that remains the plan until this one is full time at school. :flower:
 
We need to start thinking of a group name! Anyone have any suggestions?

I was thinking of a group name LittleMinx. Here's a few obvious ones:

August Sunbeams
August Sunflowers
August Beach Babies

I don't feel terribly inspired, I'll come back with some more!

I'm Emma and I am from Scotland. I'm 26 and have been hoping for this day for over a year. Still in shock that it's happened. Can't wait for 2014 now!!!!

August Sunbeams or August Sunflowers sounds cool.
 
I like the sunflowers one too actually, I didn't when I wrote it the first time, but it reminds me of last August when we went to my dad's place in France and there were fields of gold sunflowers as far as the eye could see. It was so truly beautiful and inspiring.

I like August Sunflowers too :)

(Also love writing squirrel...conversation for another day lol!)

I'm Elli, I'm 32 and I live near Peterborough in the UK. This baby will be #2. My DS will be two in Feb and I think I love him more every day. I work full time as a project manager of IT projects and I also work in my spare time making fun things from textiles to sell. I love anything crafty, maybe partly because my job is so un-crafty!

Lovely to meet you all and looking forward to our 9 month journey xxx
 
I've just done another test because my one yesterday seemed so faint but feeling slightly more reassured now.

Bottom one with FMU yesterday 13dpo and top one is just a few minutes ago having not gone to the toilet for about 3 hours (after being dragged around town shopping for Christmas decorations).

Sorry bit more about me. 35, live in Bristol, I'm a solicitor and am a bit addicted to spin classes.
 
Hi gals!
i am Mirolee, live in the US. my bf and i have been dating 4 years, ttc since jan 2012. i was married and am now divorced, so in my mind i've actually been ttc since 2008. it took 6 rounds of clomid (failed) and 1 cycle of femara to get here. i never thought it would happen.
i'm going to post this mornings sticks in a moment, if you dont mind, since i still cant get my head around it.
and just a heads up, the "june" babies are also sunflowers.
what about rainbows, rays of sunshine, or gladiolas (august birth flower) (https://www.birthdaygems.org/birth-month-flowers/august-birth-flower.htm)
 
Five weeks tomorrow.

Is it bad for two groups to have the same name? Genuinly curious, I've not been on B&B while pregannt before.

How about:
August Lollipops
August Sunsets
August Sunrises
August Sunbears
August Sunshines
