It was my sister and yep she had unexplained infertility , ended up adopting three siblings in her 30,s aged 5,2,1 . Then one night when she was 43 she woke up out of her sleep and said she just felt pregnant . Her hubby told her she was dreaming when she demanded he go get a test .... She then got up and went got one herself and hey presto ..... BFP . You can imagine the shock !!!!! Don't think she still believes it and Aoife is 4 today lol....

Doh, you said niece as well lol, baby brain strikes again!! It's a wonderful story, like a miracle, can only imagine how she felt seeing that bfp! Xxxx

Well, Last night we told the children. Reactions were very positive. We decoided we had to as on Sunday as I mentioned before we are going to my parents for a meal and if I refuse wine, they are going to question it big time. So we decided that we would need to tell them. so we have bought an easter egg fro them and this afternoon I shall disemble it and put a baby inside it and then we will give it to them when we go round.

I still can't actually believe it. i can be sat down and all of a sudden I'll remember that I am pregnant and have another mini celebration! It is good to have it out in the open because my OH would have let something slip in front of the kids befre long. He cannot keep a secret.

Hope you are all having a lovely easter and every one is well

My scan on Tuesday and if all is well going to announce it to everyone.
Had a few odd days since Friday.
Kept feeling more energetic but then tiredness would sweep over me ina n instant. think my body is adapting now and I can manage to get through the day until about 4 and then I must sleep.
Sickness is there still, but not all day. Feel bloated by end of the day.
trying not to get too anxious about Tuesday. I just want to be able to tell everyone now, hate keeping secrets plus I want to celebrate not spend the next few weeks with a secret waiting and worrying.
Creative - I bet it was a huge relief telling everyone. I think most of my family and friends have guessed anyway lol
I am off to enjoy rest of the easter now. catch up with you all on Tuesday xx

Hi everyone hope you have a lovely Easter. Not been in much as been busy working and getting DH sorted for his move. Decided I am going to stop charting after this cycle. Want to take the pressure off as with DH being away for 4 days and then home for 4 days it will only stress me out. I will still be on here checking on everyones updates. Good luck for scan hun and it feels more real once you start telling people. Xx

 

[Oasis717]

I also have my scan on Tuesday, at 10.40 it's my 12 week nuchal scan etc, so nervous but baby wriggling away every day most of the day has at least stopped me worrying about a missed mc xxxxxx Happy Easter everyone xxx

Well we did the Easter Egg thing and told mum and dad last night.
They were excited for us. (probably think we are utterky mad!)

 

[Left wonderin]

I'd say their expression was priceless ! Did they figure it out straight away ?

 

[dancareoi]

Hi all,

Hope everyone had a good Easter, we are in South Wales and it is freezing cold today!

Glad everyone is doing well.

Creative, at least you don't have to try and hide anything now. We still haven't told our kids or DH parents!

Crazy and Becks- hope your scans go well.

Jo, you are probably right with the charting if DH away. If you DTD when he's there I'm sure it will work out. Did his sample get delivered ok this time?

Hi to Regina and Fiona.

 

[Creative]

Feeling uber sick today. took two of the children clothes shopping.
Cooked a lovely leg of lamb tonight, sat down to eat it and that was that........... and it looked so nice!

It is nice to have told the kids and my parents. just hope in a few weeks I can tell everybody else!

 

[josie1234]

Hi Lisa, I thought we had a sneaky bit of sun but then turned cold again. At least the nights will be getting lighter. Good luck for the scans, looking forward to updates/pics. How are you feeling Lisa?

The sample was delivered ok, still waiting for the results. They will prob go to the doctors at DH's unit that he has just left so hopefully there won't be too much delay. Obv with so much going on, I am just thinking what's the point, we will BD when he is home and see what happens.

 

[josie1234]

Aww Creative, fancy not being able to eat, that's a shame. Did you have a productive shopping trip. Have to practically drag my DS out to buy his clothes. He is really decisive once he is out and knows what he wants but its just getting him out lol.

 

[Left wonderin]

Hope everyone had a happy Easter here is to longer nights and the weather improving

 

[Creative]

Josie, the shopping is easyish. DS is 19 and so ewe just let him loose in primark and he then tries it on. DD is even easier. The hard bit is stopping the indecent shorts etc getting int o the bag!

 

[dancareoi]

Morning all, creative glad you are feeling sick! Meant in the nicest possible way of course.

My sickness has gone now, I've been sick free for 3 days now!

DS now has an idea about the clothes he wants and doesn't really like me buying them for him now, he is 11.

I can jus about get away with it for DD who is 8, but she too is starting to get her own ideas, which are different from mine!

M other DS is 2 so wears all his big brothers hand me downs!

Crazy and Becks, what time are your scans?

 

[crazymam]

I cant wait until this sick feeling goes Lisa!
My scan is half two , feeling very anxious already.Trying to keep myself busy but hard as still so tired still.
I have all daughters so choosing clothes for them stops when they hit about 9/10! I would dare now but I do control which shops they go to as much as I can. At ten years old I am not having them dress as mini adults in anything revealing!

 

[Left wonderin]

Crazy and Beck's best of luck with the scans today . Hope you get to see your beanies and see that they are stuck like super glue ) crazy I so agree about kids dressing like mini adults uck !

Me I got my o/v + last night and this morning so just waiting for my first crosshairs ever lol... ( exciting times lol.. )
