July Sparklers 2016!

Anyone here still get cramps? Uncomfy sleep positions now too but choc biccys holding off the sickness yay

Hope everyone is well- so tired and have so much to do but not energy to do it :(

Xx
 
This is the first pregnancy I haven't really had bad cramps yet. When I was pregnant with DS, I had bad cramps through the entire first trimester... I was sure it was ending, but nope! Was told it's just from the growing :)
 
I've been having son really light brown spotting which is freaking me out. Will just have to wait and see how it goes. I have my scan on Saturday so assuming I make it I'm praying everything will be okay in there!!
 
Does anyone else not really feel pregnant? I feel like I'm jinxing myself here but I feel pretty ok. Nausea is very mild & mostly non-existent & my only symptom is tiredness but even that's grasping at straws. I'm near the end of week 5 now & by week 7 with my son I had to quit my job & I passed out at home! So far this pregnancy is so different which I guess is a good thing but I can't help but worry...
 
Hi everyone! I am due on 24th July. I have a 7 year son and a 4 year old daughter. I was here 8 years ago! Thought I'd come back:)

It's a really tough time at the moment. My baby to be's dad is in a state of shock and I'm pretty terrified.

Looking forward to making new friends!
 
Hi emmej welcome. My son is 7 too and my daughter just about to turn 4! Nice age gaps aren't they. My daughter will be starting school a month after baby is born :)
 
I am having some cramping, but only on my right side. It feels bad when I put pressure on it. I called my Dr and he's sending me in for another beta hcg. If it's over 5000, he will order an ultrasound or if he feels the right side cramping is serious, he'll order it to make sure that the pregnancy is not in my tubes. So, keeping my fingers crossed.

Not too many symptoms in the past couple of days. My boobs are sore/tender. I am still getting that heavy feeling in the lower pelvic area, still freaks me out because that's what it feels like when AF is on her way. I haven't thrown up since last Thursday (not complaining!) and nausea comes and goes, but not too bad. I'm a bit more tired/sleepy than usual, that's about it.

Hope everyone is doing well. xo

Thank you! Both my children are July babies and therefore both at school already. It's such a shame my third will be a July baby too!

I found the 3 year old age gap difficult but that may be due to my son's special needs. I wish I had had them closer! 5 years feels like it is going to be huge!! I don't feel old enough!

I had terrible cramping with my first child. It was so bad I cried. Worse than a period cramp and more akin to labour! I ended up having a laperoscopy at 5 weeks and they still couldn't find it. At 6 weeks though found him.on the scan and the pain subsides by 8. It was all fine.

All of my subsequent pregnancies started off really cramps roo. I hope yours is the same and sticky.
 
Met my mate tonigh and she announced she was 14 weeks preg! Was sooo hard to say I'm preg too! Happy for her as its her first :) kept it really well and said she hardly had anything first tri! Lucky lol
 
Afternoon ladies, hope everyone is doing well.

Having an iffy day. Hormones are in over drive and I've finally kicked cigarettes 100% I was weaning since the minute I got that BFP (please don't judge) and I was having a difficult time kicking it for good but, I think I finally did it. So, today I'm a little cranky but, over all feeling well. I keep staring at my U/S pic of the little peanut and praying and hoping that next time we go we see that awesome HB.

I'm having a difficult time with my friends. I'm the 1st to have a baby, one of the few who actually wants children and it wasn't very hard for me to conceive; therefore, I'm getting the cold shoulder from a lot of them. The one who is actively TTC seems VERY pissed off at me and the couple of ones who don't want kids have made some rather rude comments. I feel that I may be putting distance between some of them just for the sake of not stressing so hard about it.

Ugh, sorry! Needed to vent.

Well done hun and sorry they not being supportive don't think they are mates if behaving like that :( hugs hun xx
 
I've had some cramps today but more shooting pains up my cervix and onto my uterine wall or so it feels. Sharp short shooting pains.

I am so bloated today too!
 
Hope everyone is feeling well.

Welcome to Bumblebee & Emmej

Karry1412 - welcome! I'm the other way round, my first pregnancy I didn’t have any symptoms for weeks. This time I already feel a bit of nausea and tiredness and I worry I am reading too much into them. I think I will find it difficult to believe its happening until I see the scan.

TCBabyG2015 - Congrats on quitting the cigs! I know from experience how difficult that is so a big pat on the back.

Sorry to hear your friends haven't been very supportive. It can be hard when your lives start taking different paths. It can be tough if you are ttc without success but I think it’s a shame she couldn’t share your happiness.
 
I'm so sorry to hear that you've been having issues with your friends, TTCBabyG! I really don't understand that mindset at all. We struggled to conceive and I was still thrilled for each of my friends that conceived quickly. Its not a race or a contest,and while its completely normal to feel jealous when someone conceives easily, that is no reason to shame that person or make them feel bad. Hopefully they will either come around, or you are able to find a more supportive group of friends :hugs: Huge congrats on quitting smoking, too! My husband is a smoker and I've watched him struggle with quitting many times. You should be very proud of yourself for your accomplishment! :thumbup:
