Haha!! Stranjegirl, I was so wondering what a pram was too!! I'm glad you asked. My guess was a crib!!
Thanks for the reassuring words about the cramps! I am constantly going to the bathroom thinking AF has come. And having an increase in CM doesn't help that very much either! Another weird thing, and this may be TMI(though I hate to use those words here bc we discuss so much on this website) but I have had a kind of "tingly" feeling "down there" the past few days...Its so weird. I don't know if it's bc there's increased blood flow to that region or what?

Yay! Tobaira! So exciting that we are so close!! I have mine calculated according to ovulation. If I went by LMP, I'd be more like 5weeks 5 days or so. But I ovulated on day 21 or 22. So I think I'm closer this way.

Ugh, Trixie! That is so frustrating that someone ruined your special announcement. I'm sorry that happened.

Claire, we're waiting til father's day to tell our parents too! But it is so hard keeping it from them. And I don't want to tell any friends or anything til our parents know!

It seems like everything is a waiting game.... waiting to ovulate, waiting to test/AF to come, and once we finally get pregnant....wait to tell everyone, wait for first appointment, wait to find out the sex, etc. It is a true test of patience, which I have very little of!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
 
im still so upset this morning, i havent spoke to her cause oh doesnt want to make a big deal of it....but im ready to kill her!! patience is a virtue!!!!
 
Sorry Trixie,I would also be very cross!
Lady L, Its is sooo hard waiting, esp when I see my parents so often. But, it will be worth it.
Sorry about the pram/stroller thing. That did make me chuckle!
So, have any of you been looking or is it just me???
 
so sorry to hear that she betrayed your confidence trix, that is not on!!!

claire1 - i wouldnt worry for just looking, i'm one ahead of that and we've actually brought our pram/travel system. when we found out, we went to just have a look around at baby bits and try make it feel more real, well we fell in love with it and there was a fantastic offer on so we bought it. we dont believe in jinxing things so just went for it. its only after the thought occurred to me...this could be twins...eek. so it may have to be returned!

i had also bought a few clothes and bits that were on offer while ttc.

I'm gonna have a nose. I quite like the oyster....who knows. Too many choiced!!
 
Congrats to the new BFPs :) I am lurking a bit at the moment on this thread as very cautious about this pregnancy after my MMC last time but I'm about in the wings. I'm noting what you girls have purchased. We wont be buying anything for weeks yet until we feel safe to do so but like seeing what others choose. BTW had never thought that people wouldn't know what a pram is!!!

i know i thought that was funny too! but suppose its just different cultures!!!

i may google silvercross surf to see wat it is though, but im going to wait until im past 24 weeks before buying anything....i still have to replace a double bed that i sold cause i emptyed out my back room for 3 cots, still saving to replace it, the room is so bare!
 
I think it is so funny that we speak the same language but have a hard time understanding each other sometimes. I did a language program in Italy and became friends with a guy from London. He had to teach me a lot of words as I many times could not figure out what he was talking about. Then his 2 girl friends came to visit from scotland and we all went out for dinner, and I sat there with them for 3 hours and had absolutely no idea what was being talked about!! They might as well have been speaking Greek! The same thing happened to my husband and me in Ireland. We would both think that the other understood what the person was saying, but as soon as the person left, we would say to each other "did you understand, I have no idea what he said" Do you guys understand us well? I feel like you do, but then I realize that we always act like we understand what you are saying even if we don't LOL!!

Fizzio- I know you are very nervous, and who wouldn't be, but remind yourself that mmc are more unlikely than just a regular one. All the girls I know who had a mmc, only had one and went on to have multiple full term pregnancies after!!! Stay positive! :)

I think we understand you pretty well, sometimes the occassional phrase might throw us, but all in all we understand you ha ha. I remember saying on another thread " my friends son was playing up" and alot of people didnt understand what that meant. Oh and you spell things like realise and steralise etc with a "z" instead of "s". Just something I noticed ha ha xx
 
Well we ended up telling my parents today. They were just the right amount excited if not a little less, but I think that's because dh and I were so nonchalant about it. But it will be their 5th grandchild and they knew we were trying so I guess no big shock (vs my brother and sister who both got pregnant before getting engaged/married).

Haven't bought anything, but since I have a 4.5 and 3.5 yr old niece I do have plenty of hand me downs - I think there's a crib, 2 car seats, a playpen and some other stuff upstairs.. in really good shape too. Just will have to double check to make sure there are no recalls.

Sorry to hear about that girl Trixie :( I actually did tell 2 friends at work. But that's it I'm done telling people for at least a month unless my sister guesses since I don't want to lie about it - and dh gets to tell his parents tomorrow since we told mine.

LadyL I think I did mine by LMP but since I o'd the 15th or 16th either way it's pretty close.

welcome fizzio =)

the pram thing is funny. I somehow knew what it was but am still bothered that I can't figure out what Trixie meant when she said "it's bloody baltic here" - does that mean rainy or hot and humid or?? We drove through Ireland for a week on our honeymoon. Actually I shouldn't say we drove. DH did all the driving - I was terrified to drive on the opposite side of the road!! The weather there was funny for us, it was nice out when we drove but every time we stopped to get out of the car and walk around it rained lol!! I have a lot of pictures of us soaking wet at different places! I still would love to go back - it was so much fun. Plus we missed the northwest corner and didn't spend anytime in Dublin. Next time..

if you have been in good old ireland then you will know the weather here is cold, damp and its supposed to be summer!!! lol!!!
 
Baltic means freezing or really cold temperatures, lol xx
 
well i just had my first retching at smells experience this morning over the smell of ripe bananas in our cupboard. not nice. managed to eat dinner last night without feeling sick at all, but felt nauseous at work all day which is really hard because im a food technologist/scientist and work around and with food all day.

on a better note i had my 12 week scan date through this morning! 27th july. very exciting!!!!! OH is meant to be working so need to check he can get the day off but have been quite impressed that i've got the date already!
 
How is everyone?
I am a little sad and scared as I started bleeding very heavily last night and passed a huge clot. I am waiting for my doctors office to open so I can go in for a scan. I assume this is not good, but I am not sure what to expect since this is my first pregnancy and I don't know what to expect with a miscarriage. I hope you ladies are doing better than I am and I will let you know how the scan goes :)
 
:hugs: Stranjegirl - will send good thoughts your way
 
Stranjegirl, will be thinking about you and praying everything will be ok!!

Dreamer, so exciting for your scan date!! Mine is July 13th, and I am wishing the days away til then! and good luck with the morning sickness!

I too am a little worried bc I have no pregnancy symptoms anymore. Boobs are hardly sore (they were killing me a few days ago), and the cramping is pretty much gone too. I have read that it's normal for it to come and go, but I haven't felt preg in 2 days. I just wish I would get nauseated or vomit so I can feel better! Ha! Oh, but my face is broken out, and I normally have a very clear face and it is rare for me to get a pimple!! So maybe that's the pregnancy hormones?! Hope everyone else is doing good!
 
Oh stranjegirl, thinking of you, hope the scan goes ok.

LadyL you seriously do not want nauseau/sickness. Mine only started a week ago but i'm already feeling sick (haha) of that part of being pregnant. i've started wearing motion sickness bands, i've used a hairband to extend my trousers so theyre not tight, trying to eat small and often etc. Ask for some more of the other symptoms instead lol.
 
stranjegirl...everything ok??? thinking about you x
