Hi Ladies
I am tentatively asking you to put me on your list as I've had 3 m/c and an ectopic in the last 12 months all between 6 and 10 weeks. I've got a good feeling about this little bean though! Got a scan in 2 weeks to make sure it's in the right place. FX

Oh and it will be due on th 11th!

 

[Starbucket]

Welcome new August mommies to be!! Hope we all have sticky beans and a happy and healthy nine monthes!

Hi ladies! I'm so ready to leave work today. It's been a long day as I haven't slept much the last 2 nights. I'm ready for a good nights . My 2 kiddos are staying the night with their cousin so my OH and I will have some well needed alone time. I guess we should wrap presents too since it's one of the few nights both kids will be away.
Got a question for you mommies that have three or more already. I seem to be really bloated and my belly is already poking out. I know that I'm too early to be "showing" but I also know my pants are shrinking . I'm not worries about it just wondered if it's in my head. When did you mommies grow out of your clothes with #3? I've asked a couple girls at work and they said 8 weeks or less .
Welsome to everyone and I'm so glad to have joined with other pregger women that are due the sae time as me. My first appt is Dec. 18th. It will be pretty boring. My doc doesn't do a first scan until 20 weeks . I wish I could see our little bean sooner but it will be exciting when we do in March.
Good luck to all the ladies!

 

[Starbucket]

Sorry, I had an additional question to the above one..Is it normal to grow out of your clothes in the first trimester?

 

[Charlotteee]

Well i have spent the day since 2pm at my OH dads work. I was being a waitress for the day and my feet are killing!!

Just climbed into bed and going to snuggle now And relax.

Got a tour of Liverpool FC to go to tomorrow, OH bday present.

How is everyone?

YAY for all the August babies Welcome to all the new friends joining this thread!
I've heard that August has the highest birth rate so I think this is going to be a packed thread!!!!
Does anybody else keep poking their boobs to make sure they still hurt??? lol

 

[emilybee]

Haha!!! Yes I do, thought it was just me! After two +ve preg tests when I went to the docs, she didnt test me, just told me that was enough! So I keep thinking did I imagine this??? But I do have other symptoms MS, bloated belly, enhanced sence of smell etc! Am I crazy??? Do other people need reassurance that they are pregnant?

Emilybee - so sorry hun. xx

 

[holywoodmum]

Oh Emilybee so sorry to hear that, hope you get your sticky BFP very soon ((((Emily))))

Are we meant to eat prawns while pg? I can't remember! Going to google it now. I've had king prawns twice in the last few days; DH made pasta with prawns last night, said it was OK if well cooked. Anyway this morning he's in bed with terrible stomach cramps, on the verge of puking. He hasn't been sick yet though. I'm so suggestible though now that he's told me he's not feeling well I've started feeling all queasy. Terrified I've done something awful to this little beanie inside me

On a seperate note now, and a rant I warn, have had FIL staying since Thursday, he left early this morning. Anyway he smokes a bit of weed, never in the house or around Charlotte, and not in a getting wasted way, but... on Friday he took our car to the supermarket while C and I had a nap. Came back and told me people had been giving him funny looks (he's half-Jamaican and Northern Ireland is very much a WHITE society!) and then that he'd been smoking a spliff at the recycling bin in the Sainsburys car park - wtf!!
Why tell me?! Showing off? And then driving our car home! And this after he wrote off his own car last week. I just couldn't believe how irresponsible and child like he was. It really was like showing off. We were back at Sainsburys DH, FIL and I, yesterday and he was like, oh yeah over there is where I smoked my spliff!?? AGH!! Have to say I'm quite glad he's away home now.

Oh yes, and welcome all you new lovely August mummies!!

 

[holywoodmum]

Do other people need reassurance that they are pregnant?

I've done about 10 tests since BFP - have loads of ICs in my knicker drawer

 

[pinkandfluffy]

Wow have I missed lots, no more weekends away for me

Emilybee I am so sorry hun hope you get a sticky one soon.....

Flutterbaby - just wanted to say that wasn't very nice of your aunt, you don't need negativity around you when you could be supporting each other, it's not a competition at all.........you do right, don't take her calls if it is upsetting you as it is well out of order.......you deserve your pregnancy just as much, enjoy it Hopefully she will adjust and you can enjoy it together....

Pixie - hope you're okay - have heard mixed reviews on the digi test front so wouldn't fret too much - plus they are the least sensitive of tests you need more hcg for them than any other so maybe it's just early for a digi, or it didn't work right?

And on the testing front - I did an IC this morning and was overjoyed to see a lovely dark line - never had any line on one of those lol - do you think we'll ever stop?????

WELCOME TO THE NEW AUGUST MUMMIES TO BE!!!!!! Congratulations ladies!!!!!

My weekend has been nice, spent it with my family who still don't know yet (trying to save it til Christmas). Felt a bit sicky last night, but okay this morning. Off dancing later on today and back to work (booo!) tomorrow.

Anyone feeling christmassy yet? I am not......maybe I should wrap some pressies......

Hope you all have a lovely Sunday!!!!

i hope so she has rang since but hubby said i wasn't in we was supposed to visit today arranged it last week but don't feel up to it today

 

[pinkandfluffy]

Prob for the best while she settles down a bit..... I know I am a bit of an emotional muppet at the moment and bite DHs head off easily so I guess maybe she is just struggling with the hormones and emotions, and will realise you can enjoy it together soon

 

[flutterbaby]

my sister is coming over today we're having a pj day shes preg 2 due march 26th she had her last one at 29 weeks so she'scrossing her legs with this one it's not allowed out until at least 36 weeks she had her first to at 36 and 38 weeks she's only a dot i don't think her body can hold onto them til ful term

i too found out i was preg a week ago now after doing ic tests for 2 yrs had resigned myself to always seeing nothing then after an ear infection i had the sudden urge to test,peed on it and left on edge of bath finished what doing picked up to throw in the bin and nearly fell to the floor when i saw a very pale pink line rushed down to show my oh and to which he said well i cant see anything was gutted as i was positive it was there so the nx morning i rushed out and got a frer peed on it and instantly got my 2 lines and shoved under his nose and said can you see that one lol.was so happy then the day after my period was due i experienced a slight blood tinged mucus discharge and thought oh hell not another mc as had suffered 2 mmc in the past but after 2 days and just being there when i wiped it went,ive still carried on doing ic tests as the first was faint to see if darkens up with hcg increases and thankfully it has so relaxed a bit more but wont be happy till i get my scan in a couple of weeks and past 12 weeks mark.looking forward to having a very fat belly and a fantastic year nx year.hope everyone has a good xmas and beans hang iin everywhere.
