May 2012 babies - so far 8 yellow, 22 blue, 21 pink!

yay hoping! So glad everything is ok for you. Im sure your dad will be fine with it. Keep us updated. So glad everything is ok with you!

feels like ive been waiting ages for my u/s. I only found out 2 days ago when it will be! Next week will go quick though... I have monday afternoon off and then I have all of Friday off for my first midwife appointment. Time after that might drag though. Need to keep my mind occupied with something thats not baby related, but its so hard!
 
hoping - that's so exciting!! glad the scan went well :) hope your dad takes the news well :)
 
Great news hoping! So glad you saw a baby :D

Waves - I been getting those cramps too but I think it may be just gas. I woke up with the fullest bladder and gassy this morning and was cramping so bad but it went away not long after, think everything's just trying to compete for space!

Anti - The constant hunger sucks aye! In the morning I feel too ill to eat much. Currently I'm having a glass of milk with a bit of protein in it, but as soon as the nausea passes I basically live in my fridge om nom nom food
 
hey ladies...

hoping - fab news about the scan!!!

am feeling so sick...... am eating plenty to try keep it at bay... but seem to be failing..... arg another 6wks of this is making me glum!

Well my Dad cried when I told him and got very upset. Obviously he is very happy for us but also makes him think about my mum aswell and all the things they would have done with their grandchildren. He is being ultra protective already though which is really sweet.

Now to count down to the next 6 weeks when hopefully we get to see something that looks like an actual baby!
 
I have had such a stressful day :-( Have been experiencing brown blood when going to the toilet so rang my doc to try and get an appointment but they didn't have any - so I called NHS direct and they said if I couldn't see the doctor I had to go to A and E. Obviously this made me panic a lot :-( So had to have blood tests etc and got referred to EPU who said they can't scan until tomorrow so I have to wait til then to check everything is okay :'( They called me and told me my HCG levels but reckon they are normal for 6 weeks and I thought I must be at least 7 weeks so that hasn't really reassured me... Sorry for the long post I am just all worried and can't stop thinking about it :(
 
Aw try not to worry! So hard not to but its quite common. As long as it isn't getting any heavier you should be fine! and even if it did get heavier, things often turn out fine anyways! I know you must feel pretty dreadful, I know I would too but have a lie down and drink lots of water :) and just hope for the best tomorrow! I hope everythings turns out okay, let us know how your scan goes!
 
Hoping - Such wonderful news! Im so glad that everything is perfect with the bean!
 
Well I was so hungry this morning I went and brought everything I needed to make chicken tikka masala! Curry is so great right now! though I ate too much and feel sick. I hope I feel better soon cos I want some tomato and cheese crackers.......this is such a strange feeling full but still wanting to eat :( lol

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's just gas which hasn't been too pleasant seeing as I work in retail and I'm around people all day. Oh well hahaha. Someone suggested it's probably because my organs are starting to get all squished, makes sense.

Aww, sorry you're going through that but I'm sure you'll be okay! Remember, brown blood is old blood so it could be from implantation or something else. Your lady parts (inside) are more sensitive now do to increased blood flow down there and they could easily become irritated and bleed. It's also possible you implanted later than you thought and that would be why the levels are measuring 6 weeks instead of 7. It's also very early and levels can fluctuate so much right now, you may very well be 7 weeks and just have lower levels. Not a huge deal, really. Good luck with your scan tomorrow!!

LOL just stand next to someone you don't like very much then walk away like nothing happened! :haha:
 
Did you know that at 7 weeks, your uterus has doubled in size already?! How cool is that?!

rachel - let us know how the scan goes. We're thinking of you. Im sure everything is fine. :hugs:

Least its friday today! yay! next week I have my booking in appointment.

Question - how do you girls want to give birth - natural, epidural, section?! would love to get some different views.
 
I am terrified of the birth! My first was epidural, my second was natural, my 3rd I wanted pain relief but was forced into a natural birth which was not what I wanted and was quite scary. I was thinking of trying water birth with gas (that was my original plan with my 3rd) but somehow I don't think you can do that with 2 babies.
I am even more scared of the birth now cos theres two but I may opt for a c section if I'm not made to have one. I would be too scared something would go awfully wrong during labour! My labours haven't been very fun unfortunately. But then I am terrified of being cut open and would feel bad uggh

zephyr - I keep thinking labour terrifies me, but if it was that bad, you wouldnt have more than 1 baby... that said, you dont think of labour when you start ttc! This is my first and I am terrified but I want a water birth with gas in air... but obviously if it gets to much to handle i'll want more! I dont think you can have a birthing pool when you're having twins! Let us know anyway, I know its different everywhere.

I keep getting a niggling feeling that Im having twins - not sure if its instinct or just me wanting it. gotta wait 5 weeks for my scan to have a look in there! just want the next 5 weeks to go quick... then they can slow down. :)
 
Well i had first Doctors appointment to get me registered on to maternity services.

I would love to know if anyone can tell me how they work out EDD. Today I am 6 weeks exactly and internet tells me I am due 25th May. She agreed I am exactly 6 weeks but that I am due 29th May! With my first there was difference of 2 days but how does she get 4!:shrug:

sharon - I dont know. That is confusing. Its not very often there's that much of a difference. When you have your first scan they will be able to give you a more accurate date, so try not to worry too much. :)
 
hi :wave: can i join? i'm a little behind you guys at 5 wks. i conceived by IVF and my 3rd beta is on monday. My first ultrasound is approx 10/10. my boobs haven't really hurt since yesterday and its worrying me a bit! anyone else ever had this?
 
My boobs haven't hurt as much in last few days, but they are still so massive they won't fit in many of my normal clothes!
