Hi. Just coming over from the October Bumpkins.

Hi everyone.

Hi!!! :wave: welcome! You will love it over here. All the women are very kind and supportive. When is ur EDD? I'll add u to the first page.
How are you feeling? Is this or first?

Thanks.

I am due about the 6th October. It is my second child, I already have a 2 year old daughter. I have been feeling a little tired, really thirsty which is making me use the bathroom a lot! I'm getting mild cramps on and off and very slight nausea when I am hungry.

Good morning ladies! Hope everyone is well. Welcome to all the new ladies!

I woke up with a raging headache today And I too find myself sneezing way more than normal. I told my dh that apparently it is a pg symptom... he told me I'm on the Internet too much. LOL

Aw how sweet. My DD is 18 months. I feel very similar to you.

LOL!!! I've been sneezing so much lately and I thought I was just coming down with a cold but I'm experiencing no other symptoms!! There are days when I just don't feel pregnant at all and I worry that something is wrong. But I'm being hopeful that my body is doing exactly what it needs to be doing and the little one is progressing as is.

Hi ladies
How are you all today. As we say in Scotland I am knackered (tired) today didn't sleep well so that didn't help then up at 7 and swimming lessons at 9.30am!! Then was invited to my friends little boys 1st birthday now home and feet up!!

As for symptoms not too many last couple of days hungry but then once I make huge plate I just pick. Just enjoying each day as hg could hit without warning so munching on all my favourite things!! Oh and had few pinches.

Took a high sensitivity ic hpt and still just showing faint line!! Haven't taken another frer since thur but got 2 clearblue (one digital) in today so will take one tomorrow and wait and take digital on wed when hubby is home. Decided its day after my birthday so will put digital in box and tell him I need to show him the best prezzie I got and get him to open in! Just hope he gets home as forecast poor next week and hate having this to myself other than you ladies!!

When are you ladies going to spill the beans?? With dd everyone knew by 5 wks! Just due to being admitted for fluids and ended up on maternity ward in room next to our next door neighbours!!!

Was thinking about telling everyone on dd 8th birthday but will only be 8 wks or so and we don't get first scan till 12 wks!. Thought it would be cute wrapping her up 'big sister' t-shirt will just see what happens. Got dr on tue and was advised last feb from midwife that I need to get early referral with them so they can monitor me. X

Hi there! I'm just coming over from the october bumpkin thread. I'm 4 weeks today and due Oct10th. I can't wait to get to know all of you lovely ladies!

Congrats and welcome! You are going to love it over here. How are you feeling? Are you going to find out the gender? Do you have an appointment set yet? Excited to get to know you.

Thanks! I'm feeling okay so far. I've had sore boobs off and on since 1dpo and mild cramps for the same amount of time. I've also had some mild nausea especially if I forget to eat which is normal for me when I'm playing with my girls. I somehow remember to feed them and then don't eat myself. Anyways, the nausea reminds me and I eat right away. I've also been getting quite a bit of gas which is completely unusual for me.
I've been seeing an ob/gyn in a city about 2hrs from town so we've been communicating by email. I don't ovulate on my own so I used clomid for all my pregnancies and was able to get pregnant first try with all 3! I've gone for two hcg tests. My first was 3+5 and it was at 53. The second was at 4 wks on friday and I'm still waiting on those results. I'll be going for an ultrasound soon to (as my dr put it) see if we inadvertently caused me to have twins. That should be within the next couple weeks. I didn't find out the gender with my girls, but we're finding out this time. That way I can figure out if I can keep all my girl's clothes or if I can give them away and buy some boy stuff!

I don't mind at all if you change the name of this thread. I think its better if all of us October girls stick together!

 

[Lijsken87]

Can I join too? I am from the other October site....
I think I am due on the 3rd of October...if my calculations are correct. I'm 5 weeks and 2 days along now.

I'm about to be 27 and this is our first baby after trying for 5 cycles to conceive.

I have sore boobs, feeling really tired and occasionally have a lower back ache.

I'm so excited, but very nervous too. Maybe I'm trying not to even let the news "sink in" until I've been to the doctor. (Tomorrow-FINALLY!) It seems too good to be true!

I know its negative of me...but I'm scared of all the things I am feeling...and afraid it's not normal....or something may be wrong...or even thoughts of "I can't be this lucky...." and so I'm keeping very blaise about the whole thing.....just in case anything does go wrong.

That's terrible, isn't it?! But true.

I'm always anxious when I feel a niggle here and there, afraid it's my period coming on.

Does anybody else feel this way, or felt this way before?!

Just want my little bean to stick!!
(5:30am at the moment....can't sleep!)

Welcome all the new ladies!

I'm still having crazy vivid dreams I think I'll be having these all the way through

not sure if I mentioned it or not yet but I found out my sister is pregnant too. She's 11 weeks and we don't live close but we keep in touch online. I'm really excited.

 

[zephyr]

Lijksken - congrats! I'm still getting cramps that feel like af cramps and did with my other pregnancies. I know cramps are common but I still freak out too

 

[ljo1984]

I'm due 5th oct with my 3rd baby (5th pregnancy) and will be team yellow all the way

Where in Scotland are you from?

My mum knows as she guessed last night when I was on the phone to her. As for other people, we are hoping to keep it secret until after our scan, which will be around 12 weeks. I'm not sure if we will be able to keep it from relatives/friends we see often as I think I might show before that. I haven't called the gp for an appointment with the midwife yet, will hold off until about 8 weeks I think. I don't have to be monitored but will need a test for gestational diabetes at some point due to the size of my last baby.

Omg, this group moves so fast!

Welcome Hairsky! Your OH sounds really lovely and caring and I think it's great he's doing that for you!

I've had the occasional cramping, but nothing too bad. However, I never really have bad cramping with AF, so wondering if anything like that could be related? :dunno: Either way, not complaining. Although I do panic at every twinge.

Congrats on your scan zebadi.

My cold/flu thing is starting to clear up and go away now, thank god! I really can't handle being sick right now!

Welcome to the ladies that came from the other thread!

I turn 6 weeks tomorrow. So nervous!

 

[babyfeva]

Hi ladies!

I'm due Oct 9 with my second. Best of luck to everyone and congratulations!

 

[whigfield]

Hi Hun,

I am in Moray, keep waiting to meet a neighbour or something and secret out LOL
Where are you in Scotland??
We must be due around the same time
Don't think dr will be pleased to see me as they tend to see you are wasting their time especially going so early. It feels so long before your first midwife appointment over here. With DD I had been admitted to hospital twice before the local midwife decided to see me by then there was no controlling the hyperemesis unless I was on a drip. I met with her in Feb last year to chat and she did say to get appointment with DR ASAP after BFP although made it clear that I will more than likely be treated same way as they continue to no nothing about hyperemesis but she did say she would see me earlier but that may have changed! got appointment Tuesday so will keep you updated.

My mum said they might pop over tomorrow but don't think she would guess as I think this will be a shock to everyone they gave up asking about another grand child few years back LOL I was at a meeting with my boss and colleagues yesterday and boss in my eyes was looking at me in what i thought was strange way so my little voice was ticking away in my head thinking 'wonder if she has guessed' lol x

 

[HGsurvivor05]

Wigfield,

I was tempted to take evening test, think I will wait till tomorrow morning x

 

[whigfield]

@HG That's definitely a good idea. I hated myself as I was waiting for it to load because in my head I was all, "if it says 2-3 or 1-2 then what.. Would it be because of the time? Or would it be an issue? Why did I do this!!" but luckily it came up at 3+

 

[ljo1984]

I got a 3+ this morning and I'm 4+6!!! So wasn't expecting that lol
