Thank u Natty. Its not being brave, its being unable to fight the strongest desire to be a mother ;-)
I would do anything and go through anything to have our child.
I just pray i have gone through enough and this is it for us.

Has anyone else had mild af type cramps?? having them now and feeling panicky. Not painful just mild af type cramps xxx

Twin - I had a test for GBS done privately with my last as they don't offer it on NHS. I had it between weeks 34 and 37 I think? I know if your positive they have to give you some sort of antibiotics intravenously (sp?) as soon as you go into labour.
Thats prob why they don't like homebirths as you'd need a drip.

I do have the cramps from once in a while. They are mild and the come and go often during the day. It doesn't hurt, just enough to notice them

Oh glad it's not just me! a lot milder than af cramp but very similar.


I am over tired and starting to look on the bleak side of everything so time to dry my hair(just had a bath) and go to bed with my book i think. Take my brain away from all things pregnancy related for a hr or so.

Nite all xxxx

AQ - I am having mild cramping today too, but it comes and goes, so I am not really worried about it. If they were severe, I would definitely go get checked out. They say it's pretty normal though because it's your liagaments and everything stretching out for the changes taking place in our bodies.

 

[Zoesmommy]

Cramping is normal! AF types at least. I called my dr early in my first pregnancy with them and he told me he doesn't know why we get them in first tri but we do. He said his wife drove him crazy with them their first pregnancy. As long as there is no bleeding!

 

[tickledpink]

Got a today, after testing three days early so I'm a little nervous right now... but my EDD is March 16th.

I was convinced was on her way... I still am! Since Monday I've been having back cramps and I usually get that a day or two before I'm due on. The 'knicker watch' is even worse than before now I still can't believe it

 

[readynwilling]

Congrats Tickledpink!! Welcome!

 

[blessedmomma]

rottpaw- were u effected by all the flooding?

Hi Blessed, you mean the Nashville floods? I was not, thank God, but Tennessee is my home state and my hometown is only a couple hours from Nashville. We have a lot of friends and family there so I know it was awful.

oh i thought i had heard there was some in georgia. so sorry to hear about your family and friends. thats horrible.

 

[Whitbit22]

Congrats Tickledpink!

I went today to get my pregnancy confirmed at the health department so I might be able to get some sort of insurance, and they acted like I was crazy for coming in so early. Where the line was faint, they kept asking if it was FMU, et cetera.. And then I told them I was only 3 days late. They acted like they never saw people come in that were earlier than two weeks late! I am just thinking, WHO in their right mind WAITS THAT LONG?! It kind of irritated me.. ugh

I am also having the same type cramps! It's great to be able to talk about everything with you ladies its so reassuring.

Congratulations!!! And I totally understand the "knicker watch." I got my BFP Monday and first HCG levels Wednesday. Second HCG tomorrow and am scared still because (get this) I *wasn't* sick last night. Trust me to find something to worry over whether I'm sick or *not*! Gah! All this makes me positively mental, so I totally understand. And I have been checking EVERY time I go to the bathroom, half expecting the whole thing has been a dream!

Oh, how relieved I will be when levels come back good tomorrow. Please, God, let everything come back fine!

Hugs ladies!

Not to worry! I get those cramps too. Very scary at first but I honestly think it's just that there's so much going on in the uterus at the moment. Everything is growing and changing and that's bound to produce mild muscle contractions (or that's what I keep telling myself!)

I'm with others though - everything I've read says as long as there's no blood, it's all good! So relax and enjoy your book! I'm going to do the same, because spending too much time overanalyzing everything I feel is making me a little crazy LOL!

G'night ladies! Everyone have a lovely evening!

Thank you for thinking of me! We've not had any here in N. Atlanta, but we could do with some rain LOL! Hugs to you!

Whitbit, they are idiots. I'm always amazed that we get questioned about these things. I agree, who waits that long? If you are ttc, you KNOW your cycle. No need to wait 2 weeks. I also get irritated by the health care system because they assume we all ovulate on CD14 and measure your progress by that assumption. I ovulate between CD22-28. They always think I should be further along no matter how many times I tell them that I ovulate late. I lied to them this time so they don't miscalculate how far along I am. I hope you can get some insurance. You are pregnant by the way. I saw your test!!!

Cramping is very normal ladies. Don't read too much into it unless they are severe cramps with bleeding.

Wahoo for 6 weeks!

Boo for sickyness. went and ha my carvery but my gosh I thought it wanted to come back up to see me

Feel bit icky this morning too. Horrible snotty metallic taste is pissing me off!

 

[Whitbit22]

I agree that they are complete imbeciles! I ovulated on cd 17.. and according to that am 1 or 2 days later but no big deal! Hopefully my OB will be smart enough to listen to me about that.

BOO for ickiness! It always seems like whenever I lay down to go to bed it is the worst! I'm really not looking forward to sleepytime

Hello ladies

I am tentively joining you if thats ok

So a little about us I'm 35 (36 in just under 4 weeks) and my hubby is 32. I came off bcp at the end of April 2009 and we have been trying since then. I got a bfp at the end of September but our last pregnancy (our first) unfortunately ended with an MMC at the end of November so I am a little worried second time around - especially as it's taken 7 cycles since then to fall pregnant again.

We got our bfp on Wednesday evening, double checked yesterday before I started believing it. We are absolutely overjoyed but also a little cautious and wary - I've had such a mixture of emotions running through my head since we found out

I'm only around 4 weeks so realise it is early days yet. Am just hoping and praying that this is a sticky one

Justt giving everyone on this thread a sprinkling of sticky baby

 

[Whitbit22]

STICKY VIBES HON!!! Congrats!!

 

[cherylanne]

Congratulations SmileyShazza.

I'm 6 weeks today everyone. I know it's not very far along, but i'm half way to 2nd tri!! Maybe then i'll calm down a bit and relax. I'm also on knocker watch.

How's everyone feeling at the moment? xx
