Whew, this thread does look tough to keep up with but Im going to try! Can I come in? My name is Megan (pernounced Mee-gan) and this will be our first. i'm 4 weeks today and absolutely thrilled! so nice to be a part of all of you lovely ladies!

Hi Megan, we are both 4 weeks today! Welcome! I hope for you a great 9 months! Look forward to having folks at the same progress as myself to chat with!

It really is a part time job to keep up with this thread! I'm Brenna and I'll be 5 weeks tomorrow! Yay! Does anyone else feel like their boobs are getting bigger already?? We have picked Brooke for a girl and Hunter for a boy. Although I like Aubrey and Noah also, although I don't think they go with the last name Ward very well!

My boobs don't feel bigger they are bigger I almost need a new bra already!!! Which my OH is happy about lol especially sense I'm not gaining weight yet I get bloated a little but I'm actually losing weight sense I can't keep anything down which makes me nervouse...

We've picked breen Lea like Bree-n and lee-ay for a girl and geovanni tase for a boy. But I like breenlee for a girl to idk what do u think ? I've always liked the name aubry I wanted that one but OH doesn't like it

 

[msarkozi]

I think Aubry is a very pretty name. I haven't heard many with that name either

 

[Reebo]

I also like Aubrey.

Is anyone else afraid to get too excited? I was tempted to run to the bookstore tonight and buy baby planning books, but don't want to jinx anything. This is our first and the dr said I don't need to come in until mid-August for an exam and scan, since we're (relatively) young and healthy, but it's a little scary! I wish I could see into the future that everything will be okay.

 

[Reebo]

P.S. Welcome Megan! I'm also 4 wks today!

Absolutely YES! I go throughout the day excited, then nervous, then scared...I change with every tick of the clock! HA. A little hormonal too--had a little breakdown with SO tonight--scared that it won't stay and scared things won't be healthy...I too don't get a scan till August 26! Seems like forever!

It's definitely hard to be excited when this is something we have no control over. I had a miscarriage in May, and I fell pregnant again right away. I have been terrified. I am starting to get more excited though, especially since I made it past the point I miscarried last time.

I purchased two books (What to expect when expecting, as well as I'm pregnant a week by week guide) when we were TTC. I started reading them right away as there is some info in there prior to pregnancy, and it's good to read. It definitely doesn't hurt to have a book and to read it

I am so sad for Hearty too. I spoke with her on our 35+ thread and she asked that I let anyone who asks know that she's unsubbed from this thread and please PM her if you'd like to get a message to her. She is facing a rough rest of the week and in the days to come.

Hugs and prayers all!

angela- if they want you to start it tonight then start it tonight!!!!! why do you think you would lose your job? are they talking bedrest or something? i will for sure be praying for you!! thats just a given!! if you were to lose your job for the health of this baby then God will surely provide. Just trust that He is the one who created this life and He is the one who will provide everything needed for it, that includes finances! Just keep your faith and believe

Thanks Melissa, I'm trying, I promise! I know I need to just trust God, and he knows my situation and will take care of us. I am definitely starting it tonight, no worries there. I just don't know how it will affect me; everyone I've spoken to that's used it has had rough side effects, but that was oral (and I'm hoping the vaginal one has fewer sides).

The issue with my job is just that there's a lot going on at our office right now - layoffs left and right, etc. and my boss is not the most understanding of needing time off here or there for a bad day or night with sickness. It's just got me worried because I don't want to let my team members down - but I'm not going to do anything that will jeopardize this pregnancy! Baby comes first!

Thank you for your prayers, my friend! Every one is appreciated!

have you thought about asking your dr to put you on natural cream? might have less side effects???? i know im having none. then again you may have no side effects from the pills too.

I definitely will try that if I have issues with the pills. I'm hoping it won't be too bad but I'm glad to know there may be a fallback position! LOL

How are you feeling today?

 

[blessedmomma]

Just jumping in from ttc. Got my BFP July 9th, edd March 22, 2011. I have three kids, and had a miscarriage October of last year. It will be fun to chat with others going through the same thing! Only symptom so far is really painful (.Y.) and sore back.

[blessedmomma]

night hun. heading off myself..

congrats new marchies!

 

[Tanikit]

Congrats to the new Mums!

I've woken up vomiting this morning and I have a feeling its not morning sickness - think I've picked up what DD has had. I have my appointment at 12:00 today and a scan, but no babysitter for DD as the person I wanted to send her to has her own kids who do not need to pick up what DD has - so somehow, I will take me and DD to a gynae and hope neither of us throws up on the way there or while there. SIgh.

 

[Nixilix]

Oh dear bronwyn, not a good start. I hope you and your family get better. Yay for scan though!! Let me know how you get on hun xx

So upset for heart tree. This world is very cruel.

Welome new marchies, excuse me while I go and chuck up xx

 

[Embo78]

Welcome braijavava (sp!)
We're in similar position. I have three children too and I got my BFP on July 9th too! Maybe we could be bump buddies once I'm feeling more confident about my pregnancy?? X

 

[Embo78]

Update for march mummies. Still having slight brown spotting but I'm trying to be positive. Took another test and still quite dark. My digi said 1-2 but that won't change for a good few days so I'm not that worried.
I have lost half a stone (7lbs) since I got my BFP tho. I mentioned this to my gp but she didn't seem too bothered. I'm not a skinny minny tho so I can afford it!! I just haven't been able to eat much. I'm off food ESP the things I used to like!! IE coffee, pepsi, porridge, chocolate basically anything! I just feel sick when I think of food. Last night I force fed myself roast chicken breast, new potatoes and salad. Barely ate half of it.
I'm taking it as a good sign that my bubba's sticking around (hopefully)
How's everyone else doing. Xx

 

[Embo78]

Hope you're not getting DD bug tanikit.
Try to sip water throughout the day so you don't get dehydrated. Hope ur feelin better soon xx
