Nope still no appointment! Driving me nuts as need to know in advance to make an excuse at work and to see if I need alternative arrangements for picking son up from school! Think when tiredness and nausea hits in after lunch I might ring them again to throw hissy fit!

Hoping - so glad your scan went well, that's brilliant news

Zephyr - sorry your feeling so rough, take it easy.

Anti - yay for 10 weeks!

Well going by my dates i'll be 11 weeks tomorrow...gonna stick with them as I knew my dates pretty well. Although i've had the odd day of feeling sick this week it has definitely eased up and bbs aren't quite as sore. Not panicking this time though as baby was perfectly happy on Wednesday

 

[anti]

The only symptom I really had was tender bbs. Thats all gone now!! I have been extremely tired though, which I guess is a symptom. I got so worked up last night I did another preg test. the test line came up ling before the control line did.

Hoping to buy that crib tonight - but obviously still concerned coz I haven't had many symptoms and still havent had a scan. but I am bloated and I can feel stretching so Im sure its all fine.

 

[yazzy]

Tiredness is definitely a symptom....i'm exhausted every day and want to be in bed sleeping by 9pm...soooo looking forward to having a nice lie in tomorrow morning

[bumpin2012]

Try not to worry, Anti, Im sure all is fine. The tiredness is my most predominant symptom at this point. My boobs are less sore, and im no where near as nauseated as I was a few weeks ago. The pg test is def. a good sign. Wait till you hear the HB on Doppler! Its so amazing!

 

[rjsmam]

how lovely for those of you with friends who are also expecting!

unfortunately on the day i got my bfp my poor friend was told she'd had a mmc - so sad. I obviously had to take some time before telling her and felt awful for her as i knew despite her being happy for me she'd feel sad for her own loss.. then a few wks later my very best friend got a pos on a tesco digi - we were so excited.. but the test was followed by a raft of negative tests. turns out it was a random fluke test - as she didn't have a bleed or anything....

afm am still waiting for scan date.. got some really busy days ahead so am hoping they're rewarded with a date arriving in the post!

So my mom is up for a visit and driving me mad as usual. She's sitting there with her sour face on and won't talk to anyone. And there's no reason for it. She's just being awkward. She won't talk to anyone and the only thing she's said is 'it was a mistake to come visit' which is the only thing she ever says when she's here. I dint even know why I f'ing bother!!!! Sorry bout the rant but I just had to get it off my chest.

 

[zephyr]

Oh anti that is awful! How can parents do that?! you would think she would at least be happy to see you! Hopefully she snaps out of it and you guys can enjoy the time together!
My mum showed up to my sons bday party an hour and a half late, refused to sit on my couch (because she wore her best clothes to a 3 year olds party and didn't want dog hair on her clothing) kept my kids at arms length, didn't speak to them at all or anyone else and just stood there for half an hour looking sour and disappointed and almost disgusted at the noise/mess.
It sucks when they just look so unhappy, when you all you want is for them to enjoy some time with you hey. I'd be telling her to snap out of it.
How is everything else going? Just remember the visit is only temporary! be over befor eyou know it!

I had a rough morning this morning, vomiting again. I think this is bordering on something slightly more than just the standard morning sickness, I went and got a milkshake after vomiting all my food and water and have since kept that down so something at least is going in, but its awful. As soon as I eat, or move or stand up I just urgently need to vomit! I hope this goes away over the next week or two. May even need to get my midwife to prescribe something. Someone snarked at me on facebook saying I should be enjoying this and I'm like "whhaaaaat? yeah totally, I enjoy throwing up all my meals so much I now know what combinations go well together and eat food I know will taste good coming back up the other way" For those that care to know, dont eat asparagus when you have morning sickness.
Either way this sucks so badly and I can't wait to feel better so I have something good to say cos right now with my mum still not talking to me and me being crook all day long, I really dont have much of anything good to say really.

I found a twin stroller I put on hold yesterday but I want to go cancel it, I just cant bring myself to buy anything just yet and the thought of getting something makes it all too real. eeek!

Hi ladies, mind if i join you? I'm due 9th May with number 2!

I really cant understand how people can act like this...
I hope you feel better soon Zephyr. I think its just the extra hormones making you ill. I felt exactly as you are describing around week 8 and I had to get Diclectin for a few weeks so that I could hold anything down.

I bought 12 cloth diapers online yesterday. I got the email last night that they should be delivered on tuesday, so Im super excited. Its my first baby buy. Is the stroller a great deal? if not you can wait until you feel ready to start buying the big things. I dont want to buy anything big until closer to.

welcome sunshine x

 

[anti]

welcome sunshine - will update the front page soon!

so my weekend went from bad to worse. my mom didn't say a single word to us when she was here! Then my border collie pup got attacked over the park and i had to rush her to the vet. I came home and my mom is gone and didnt even text to say she was leaving. i've text her and tried calling and had no response... dont know why i even bother anymore!!!

hope you all having a better weekend than me!!

 

[zephyr]

Aw that is so rude! and hurtful! Does she not realise that this would upset you? I would try and forget about her for the moment and focus on getting your dog better and keeping yourself healthy and well and hopefully your mum changes her ways.
She usually like this? or could this just be still shocked about being a grandmother?

I feel good this morning, havn't got out of bed yet though. Got up to go to the bathroom and almost started puking again so back to bed for me again. Have to go out soon and pick my daughter up from the airport though kinda nervous about venturing out.

Yeah the stroller is a good deal, it is a used one, however most I have seen are about double the price used so I dunno, nervous haha. Maybe I'll cancel it and wait for another. who knows!

My sister had her baby yesterday (my dads other daughter) ended up needing an emercency c section! but baby and her are okay. She lives ages away from me so I see the photos on facebook and he is so cute.

 

[bumpin2012]

Zephyr: well if its a really good deal, you should get it! another one might not come available when you need it.

Anti, Im so sorry to hear how your mom is behaving. If it were me, I would be calling her up, or sending her a text if she isn't picking up the phone, and telling her that you have more important things to deal with, and when she is ready to grow up, she can contact you. Then I would get on with my life getting ready to be a real mother, and not be stressing about her...but thats hot headed me...lol... I have actually done this, but I was 15, not pregnant and I told this to my father, who was acting like he was 15. I actually didn't hear from him until I was 20, when he was regretting that he had no relationship with me. But I will say I have a better relationship with him now, not that he has grown up, but because I proved to myself that I didn't need him to be a parent.

 

[anti]

Zephyr-my mom is always like that but it's been worse since I told her about the baby. And I think you should get the stroller. I bought a cot on Friday coz it was a great deal (second hand). I was weary as well but I did it!

I've tried ringing my mom and her phone is off. She won't answer the landline so I don't even know if she got home safe. I spoke to my dad after all this (he still lives in Botswana) and he didn't really know what to say. They got divorced about 22 year ago now. I was still a tiny baby. My step mom said I need to get tough with her and just tell her how I feel and not let her come visit coz it upsets me every time. But it's so hard!! I'm gonna have to do something!

After all the stress today I've been getting bad cramps. Bit worried about bubs but I'm sure it's all ok.

My pup seems ok as well. She's acting normal and eating and stuff. She's got a staple where she was bitten but it seems to coming out already!! Hope it gonna be ok.

 

[littlemamana]

Hey guys! I'd love to added to this list. My baby is due May 2, 2012. Yay May babies!

 

[wavescrash]

Hey ladies... been a bit MIA due to a 4-day migraine and work. Finally feeling normal again and have the day off work tomorrow! Hope you're all doing well. Sorry to hear about Moms being rude and mean though

I can't believe I'll be 12 weeks in just 4.5 days!


Oh & I got some blood work test results back - my iron levels are low (I knew they would be) so I just have to take an iron supplement each day. My thyroid levels were also low (which I've always known but never had a doctor take notice... always said it was borderline) so I have to get that blood test repeated in a month and we'll go from there.
