Hi all haven't been on here in a few days. Nice to hear scans are going well.. I can't wait until my next one and my last one was just last week lol...

Been feeling pretty good... Super super tired and I throw up every morning but that's all part of the fun right.

Kelbez! Yey there are more Canadians on here than you think but it's always nice to find one close by. You actually in TO?

Hello, I'm due 14th July looking for a Buddy!

 

[UpNComer]

So up until now I've felt fine, just tired and a bit constipated but for the last 3 days I have not stopped feeling nausea. Could this be a late start to morning sickness? Even tho, it doesn't happen in the morning it's random.

My MS didn't start until middle of Week 8 - lasted about 4 days of constant UGH - and now just comes and goes. In fact, yesterday I felt great! And today, starting to feeling gross again. Sadly, I think it can rear its ugly head at any time...

How is everyone doing?

I had some mild nausea that started at exactly 8 weeks. I'm 8+6 now and it comes and goes. Haven't got much of an appetite though at all.

Have my booking appointment on Monday - very excited

My nausea is generally here but manageable - only been sick 3 times .
I have another private scan on Christmas Eve ! Getting excited about telling parents on Christmas day . Pray all is well still in there and my little bean is growing well!

I'm feeling so emotional at the moment ! Starting to actually believe this is happening !

^^ same here!! I'm beginning to feel like this is real!!! Very jealous of a Christmas Eve scan! Hope it all goes well - post a pic if you can. We're telling on Christmas Day too - then it really will feel real!

 

[fuschia]

K4th - how do you plan to tell? Can't remember if you said?

Atm I think we plan to get cards and put a scan pic in with a little announcement and get them to open at same time at end of doing presents !

[k4th]

Fuschia - we're going to tell dd in the morning. Once she grasps she's going to be a big sister, she'll tell everyone for us!! Thought it would be cute coming from her

Your idea is lovely. If we had a scan pic we'd do something similar

I'm feeling a little bit naughty this evening....

A big group of friends are meeting up for Christmas. I would never hide my pregnancy - alcohol aside, I'm beginning to get a bump!! So I've opted out & oh has gone & told everyone I have flu (which I had last week so I hope I don't jinx myself & catch it again). Dd has gone to stay at grandparents & I'm having a lovely, indulgent evening. I'm wrapping Christmas presents, watching "gone with the wind" and I've just finished an enormous Chinese takeaway which was utterly amazing.

I feel a bit naughty because staying in is much better than going out (sober!). I feel a bit sorry for oh lol!

 

[fuschia]

K4th - that sounds like a lovely idea telling dd and then getting her to pass the message on!

my dd is 3 in Feb and I cant see that working very well with us. I will be waiting until things are a lot further along until I really start to explain things to her. She understand where babies come from (mummy's tummy ) but until I have a big bump and baby is coming soon - I dont think she will get the concept entirely!

Sounds like you had a nice relaxing christmassy night the other night - good plan!

Things that have happened with me - I told my best friend. See her once in a blue moon and told her when we were at afternoon tea together for xmas - she cried! Wasnt expecting that at all! She obv knows how it was taking a very long time - so we were both in tears at the lovely hotel !

Then just now I have told my boss! Wasnt planing on it - but he was talking about the future and asking me to think about what I want and how I want to fit in etc and I just felt it was the right time!

Next on list is have scan on xmas eve ( pray it goes well) and tell parents!

How are you all? morning sickness starting to die off yet? Isnt it meant to get a bit better around 9 weeks?

 

[k4th]

Fuschia - my dd will be 4 in feb. Such a difference between her then & now. It's amazing how they grow up so fast isn't it??! She will understand now & I think she'll be really excited. I'm a bit worried telling her before 12 weeks is up, but we can't tell the rest of our family and not her. She'll feel really left out with whispering & hugs etc. just praying that everything is ok at our 12 week scan. Only two days to your scan - how exciting!!

Had my booking appointment today & got 12 week scan date. 12th jan!!! Doesn't seem so far away - three weeks today. Bet it drags though.

I'm 9+2 today and feel pretty sick today. My nausea is usually pretty slight but I'm feeling it more than usual today. I stayed up to watch The Apprentice last night & I'm so so tired today. I feel like I haven't been to bed at all - I have had 7 hours sleep! But maybe that's why my symptoms seem worse today

Sickness is finally here at 8 weeks. Not half as bad as I expected though.

Big things going on in my life. I got offered a federal job and accepted it.
I've been trying for two years to get into a position like this and now I'm so nervous . I'll have to tell them I'm PG before my 90 day probation is up! Totally has me stressed, plus putting in my two weeks wasn't responded to on Friday and I know my boss is going to be mad.

But all the good news, I've been getting scans every week and It's been so comforting. I have the third and final (for awhile) on the 26th.

 

[fuschia]

K4th- glad your booking appointment went well- did they book your scan for you when you were there ?

Last time I had to wait for Nhs letter in post -I wonder if they do t different now ! Having my booking appointment on 30th so will be 10 and half weeks - wondering how it will work considering it's not long till scan due !

The re assurance from my early scan at 7 weeks has worn off now ! So I'm glad I have scan on Christmas eve - can't wait to see how it is different.

I wonder if your tiredness makes the nausea worse ? I'm pretty lucky that mines pretty manageable - just gotta eat in am! Although today I also felt pretty bad at work!!

Pinkee - congrats on your job!! I understand the stress this presents though! I'm sure all will be fine - these things happen all the time ! I hope your scan goes well on 26th xx

 

[k4th]

Pinkee - my sickness got much more noticeable daily at 8 weeks too. Kind of glad to have a little symptom though. Congrats on the job!!! Good for you!

Fuschia - the midwife gave me a number to call and arrange my scan. As soon as I left the appointment I rang & had my pick of appointments during the week I will be twelve weeks. It was so nice to pick a day I don't work - I don't mind taking time off but not having to mess around is much better.

 

[fuschia]

Oh I hope that's the same for me !

I was thinking the same - I only work 2 days a week so If I have to take a day off its a bit in convenient !

3 weeks will pass quick enough xx

 

[k4th]

Well - so much for dd telling everyone. We told her & she said "why?"... Followed by "ok, can I build my princess castle?". Then when we asked her to tell people she just said "no"! Lol! News went down well though - this will be the second grandchild on both sides (dd is the first) so no doubt will be spoilt rotten too.

I've had more spotting so had to call the hospital this morning. Have an appointment first thing on Monday morning for a scan & internal exam.

Hope everyone else is good! How did announcements go down? Anyone manage to keep it covered up over Christmas?

 

[fuschia]

K4th- you can never predict the behaviour of these little ones !

Glad it went down well.

we handed out parents a car with scan pic in from Christmas Eve . The scan was great - it really come on ! No disputing it's a baby now and could see arms and legs buds .

My dad cried - mum said she had a feeling and mil was very happy .

Then on boxing day we told grandparents and aunties and all were happy

My grandad said he did wonder from my little bulge when I was standing up.... Not sure how to take that as I'm sure I am more bloated and now don't fit it my tighter jeans ... But I have a belly anyway lol

Got my booking in appointment on Tuesday so hopefully I'll e able to book my scan too rather than wait around to be summoned !

 

[k4th]

Aah - glad it went well fuschia. My sister cried too. I felt a bit like an ice queen coz I didn't join in lol!

 

[fuschia]

Hey ladies - here ismy scan pic from xmas eve.

Baby as measuring a litle behind at 9 weeks 2 days xx
