Just realised how far I've come!!

[Reds05]

Pointless thread I know but popped into first tri just for a look and see if I could offer some advice (I always felt reassured when 3rd tri ladies put my mind at rest about things)

Anyway, some of the due dates are the end of July

Seems a million miles away since I got my BFP and feeling so good that I've reached over 31 weeks - my LO will be 6 months old by the time the first tri ladies have had theirs!!

Was feeling a bit down as back has been sore and can't sleep that great because of it but now I'm grateful that I've made it this far and will be meeting my baby the month after next

I did the same thing yesterday and couldn't believe how far I've come. So many scary bleeding threads etc I would hate to have to go back to all that now

 

[Reds05]

I know!!

I remember panicking over every twinge in case it was an ectopic or an mc. Then feeling relieved at the 12wk scan, then worried again about things until I started feeling movement.

Exactly, in a day or so I will have been pg for 200 days - completely insane!!!

 

[whoops]

Just sneaked over for a peek. It's so weird seeing their tickers in the first couple of boxes! I remember how excited I was going from the first to the second box - seems like a million years ago now.

I remember being so excited that I'd reached 6 weeks!!! I must have been crazy lol

 

[whoops]

At one point, I actually went and got a grain of rice from the kitchen and sat there staring at it, unable to get my head around the idea that something so small was growing inside me.

Can't believe how much she's grown since then.

I joined BnB at about 8wks I think and remembering reading all the first tri threads thinking 'how am I gonna get through this!!'. First tri was def the hardest for me - actually, up until about 16wks was pretty tuff!! Might pop in and have a look in a bit!!

 

[Reds05]

You should!!

It made me appreciate all the aches and pains I've been having over the past wee while and realise that, in the end, it will all be worth it seeing my LO in Jan.

I remember struggling through to 17 weeks and thinking that my bleeding probs were never ever going to end...it was only this weekend i thought...ooh I've been fine for about 12 weeks or so now, I'm really gonna get there this time.

I know!! I remember how exciting it was to know that lo was the size of a blueberry! my bf's aunt just got her BFP and is due the end of July! Crazy.

It's so surreal isn't it? Oh my gosh, I hated 1st tri, all the panicking and worrying! I was a nervous wreck half the time! So glad to have come this far!!
