charli15 - I know where you are coming from! Having had to tell people at work I now hope I wasn't imagining it and hope when a medical professional checks that there is evidence!

Hi Ladies! I was on the thread with Manuiti and we both got BFP's shortly near one another. I am a bit worried about joining but decided to just let go and join. I had my 6 week scan today and saw the heartbeat and have another scan next Wednesday to make sure it's rising properly. Feeling nauseated, have food aversions, etc. How did you ladies that worked full time get through the first trimester? Thanks. Hoping we all have a H&H 9 months.

 

[manuiti]

yay! Great to see you on here Fro! And yay for your scan too!

I basically came home every day after work and napped for a couple of hours, I was so tired!

Congrats to all the newly pregnant women! Happy and Healthy nine months to all!

I may be 34 (will be 35 when I deliver) and it is my first pregnancy...but I feel too young to have a baby!

I feel to old to be having a baby my first two was easy this baby has been very hard but good luck

I am 38 and pregnant with my first child. So happy and actually really glad I chose to wait. I lived a very full life, had lots of fun and traveled a lot so I am really ready now.

I don't think I've posted in here before, apologies if I have!

I'm 35 (36 in July) and my baby is due end October, we weren't specifically trying but weren't preventing too enthusiastically either
I'm only 17w1d but it feels like I've been pregnant forever and there's eternity left to go..... *sigh*
Didn't help that 10 days ago I had to have a 10cm cyst removed and they opened me up 7" to do so, therefore am feeling like I've had a c-section without having the baby at the end of it! Stuck at home bored to death........

Oh you poor thing, how horrible. I hope you feel back to normal soon, well whatever normal is when your pregnant!!

I know what you mean, i feel like I've been pregnant a lot longer that 4 months and with this insomnia it's gonna drag!!!!

Hi folks :wave: 36 (37 in July) and first time I've done this - due 31st December. Not feeling too bad so far, but I guess there's plenty of time for that!

 

[SaucySac38]

Enjoy the feeling good! My worst symptoms kicked in about week 6 and are just starting to ease off.

Congrats to all the pregnant ladies! This is baby number 3 for me, I have 2 daughters ages 16 and 12...I am 41 and will be 42 when this baby is born

Yeah, I felt a bit grim the beginning of week 6 and thought I was in for it, but then started feeling better and don't mind if that continues. Just spent three days feeling rather tired at a conference, but I was able to blame the heat (in Manchester! In May!)

The hard thing was keeping my mouth shut when seeing all these people I see once or twice a year at most, and who I know would be pleased for me. Why don't we have a mouth-zipping smiley?!

 

[SaucySac38]

Mine ares still around though I am getting more good days in a row than before. I am waiting patiently for the morning I wake and feel rested and not like I still need to go to sleep.
