I just noticed the slightest amount of pink. It was really very very light pink cm.....but now my nerves are shot and I am thinking the worst.

Hello, is it ok if I join? I am due on 8-14. My husband and I have been TTC for 2 years now and with the help of clomid, we were finally able to get a bfp in July this year but had a mc late August. We got another bfp last week. We have another dr appointment on Monday for more lab work and a ultrasound scheduled on the 23rd. I think once we have the ultrasound on the 23rd things will finally sink in, right now I am hesitant to get too excited.

Congrats on your !! HH 9 months! Love your little kitty too, we have one that's black and white too, I can't wait until she gets big like yours



addy1 - If it's only a little and it's very very light, I wouldn't worry too much.. one thing I always remember is when I went to see my OB, she'd always tell me after seeing her, I might see some pink, but it's because everything is extra sensitive so anything could cause it but never to be really alarmed until its red, if it's red to call the OB.

But I could understand seeing anything would make you worry, I know I would (but I'm paranoid over little things lol) you could always try calling your OB/midwife on Monday and let them know and they can help ease your worries by probably sending for tests or seeing you earlier

Congrats to all new ladies with BFPs and welcome over!!!

I'm planning to breastfeed again. I managed to 14 months with my son before my supply ran out. It was also preventing him from sleeping through the night as he would wake for comfort. He had tongue tie when he was born and the first four weeks were pure and utter hell in terms of pain! I would howl and cry every time he latched on and the damage was just hideous! This time I'm getting baby checked by a peadiatrician before we leave hospital. After he had his tongue tie clipped, breastfeeding was a wonderful experience, but I never want a repeat of those first few weeks!

Hey ladies! Welcome to the new mommas! soooo excited for you! I seriously haven't looked at this thread for like TWO days and it's already pages and pages I've missed haha

I hope everyone is feeling okay! (But still a little sick so we don't get nervous )

I plan on breastfeeding again but like you my son was tongue tied and it was SO difficult in the beginning, finally got the hang of it around 8 weeks with both of my boys and they both self-weaned at 9 months when they started walking!! Hope to make it longer this time but if not 9 months is my goal!!

Lol flyingduster - will you aim to wean your older one or happy to bf both together?

I bf my son for 3.5 months before switching to formula. The reason I switched was because I was having supply issues and was getting very upset because DS would try to get more milk for like an hour and there would be nothing there. Eventually I was sorta borderline PND and I realised that the best thing for us both was to change to formula. This time I'm going to try to bf again. I want to make it at least the first 3 months but hopefully longer.

Happy 5 weeks my fellow 10 August, pinkpolkadots, lovecakes and teacup.

Still not sleeping well. It's hard to fall asleep but I wake up really early.

I am happy to tandem feed if that happens, but I am happy to let him wean as my milk dries up too; I got him to over 2 years now, so I am happy either way.

Woohoo! I've been going to bed and being fast asleep about 2hrs earlier than normal for the past week but last night I was wide awake at 1.30am. I did get a great lie in yesterday though.when I first found out I didn't sleep for days out of excitement lol

Hi there,

If it's just pink then don't worry too much! It's quite common to have some bleeding in early pregnancy and is probably just from your cervix. Have you BDd recently? That might have irritated your cervix.

Morning ladies,

Well I've woken up in pain this morning, pain in my back I had terrible back problems with my son in the last month as he was back to back and big. I'm hoping this is a one off and my problems aren't starting ridiculously early with this one - I'm worried he damaged me more than I realised and my back is just shot. It's just over half way up and on the right side. I had quite a few problems with right-sided back pain with him, hence why I'm concerned. It started in the night, so I'm hopeful I just pulled something in my sleep. We'll see over the next few days.

Back pain doesn't indicate ectopic usually, does it? I've double checked the NHS symptoms and it states shoulder pain at the tip is a concern, along with abdominal pain and bleeding. I haven't got any of these and my digital went up from 1-2 to 2-3 quite quickly and after tearing my tests apart seems to be progressing really well.... so I don't think it is ectopic, but I want to rule that out in my paranoid twitterings!

Last night we were at our friend's house for a massive fake-Christmas dinner. One of the girl's has just announced her pregnancy and everyone was talking about it. I totally didn't want to steal her thunder and it's too soon for us to say, but I had to bite my tongue several times to stop myself blabbering our secret

I'm sure people noticed though - I went to the loo probably about ten times (frequent urination may have begun!) and I wasn't drinking alcohol. I also nearly fell asleep on the sofa and had to question what sort of cheese had been used in the starter (in case it wasn't pasteurised). Actually, I'm sure they were probably too focused on our other pregnant friend to notice! I also think I got a wave of nausea last night and this morning we'll see if that continues!

Congratulations to all the new bfps!

So who's finding out team pink or blue or staying yellow?!
I wanna stay team yellow but im guna ask the person doing the ultrasound to write it on a bit of paper and pop into an envelope just in case we change our minds ha!

No sickness feeling today but I generally get it afternoonish the last few days!

My son was back to back too. It was awful. Back pain is common in early pregnancy so I'm sure you've nothing to worry about

I'm finding out what team we're on. I have everything for a boy so need to know if shopping is needed.

 

[mrsswaffer]

I've got backache this time. I didn't get it at all with my son.

We'll stay team . I thought of doing the envelope thing, but I'd rather not have the option. Just to look away during the anomaly scan when they're checking out the bladder etc. That's what we did last time.

 

[glbaby1]

My boobs definitely look bigger already and are heavier than they were. Who here plans to bf?

Welcome sheffie! H&H 9 months

Definitely breastfeeding! It took two kids to officially break in the bb's because it was smooth sailing with my third. Plus it helps tremendously with losing the baby weight.

 

[squirrel.]

Thanks 28. I know rationally I need to not worry about this, but that last month was tough!

I'll be finding out this time. I like finding out so we can prepare by getting all the stuff ready - though this time we'll have most things, we'll just need to buy some new clothes if it's a girl. I also like to prepare emotionally. I found that by knowing he was a boy and giving him his name, I was able to bond so well with my son before he was born. Personally, I don't think I would have been able to do that so well if I hadn't know what he was. I would have found it hard to imagine him in there and imagien what it would be like when he was born. We want to have three children and we'd love at least one of each. If this one is a girl, then on the last try we'll try team yellow. If we had everything we needed for both boy and girl, then I would want to experience not knowing the last time. If this one is a boy though, we'll be finding out with the last one too.

[MummyJade]

[28329]

Squirrel, it's easy to worry, it's in our nature. That bfp is the start of it.

 

[LittleMinx]

I'll be finding out because i'm far too impatient to wait! x

 

[teacup]

Hi Clynn, I tested again yesterday morning at 5 weeks and had a very faint positive, and then started spotting. It's over for me, hopefully our forever baby will be soon.

I hope everyone has a healthy happy nine months! xx
