[Mummafrog]

Hellooo ladies

My name is Jenna and my partner is David,
We're quite young but very ready for this and living together, this is our first bumpkin
We're in England.

We were sort of ttcing in a relaxed way for around 4 months,
My BFP was early October, 6 days after af was due because I really wasn't expecting it that month!
I did a second test about a week later and much darker, that's all I needed.

Bloods are not routinely done here. My first scan will be at 12 weeks +4 on the 28th of November! Cannot wait to see baby

We will be so happy with either gender, completely on the fence, however me and my best friend dreamt I was having a boy on the same night so I am curious to see if we were right! (didn't discuss it before hand or anything)

At the moment I'm not craving much, but if I see beautiful fresh fruit and veg it makes my mouth water. If food smells really good, that's when I want it! My nose is really affecting me at the moment, if I smell something bad I gag

Maybe we could talk about symptoms too? I have had relatively low symptoms, sometimes very tired, occassional waves of nausea but not too bad, my breasts have been continuously but mildly sore and I've been sick once because I went to sleep on a full stomach (bad move!) But now my tummy is starting to feel hard (under my soft flab hehe ) which is amazing

DO YOU HOPE FOR A CERTAIN GENDER: DH is rooting for a boy but he would be over the moon if it was a girl as well. I don't have a hope either way, just want a happy and healthy baby

WHAT DO YOU CRAVE AT THE MOMENT: I have had weird cravings for Sour Patch Kids and Italian subs (but no deli meet for prego!)
