Me too. Not sure what that says about us though as it should be basic maths

the BandA tickers don't do a count up... like I am 8 weeks whatever pregnant... I will change it seens as you asked so nicely

that's better! sorry i am such an idiot

Thanks Mari - her ticker was confusing the life outta me too!!!

Hey Jade, im ok - sickness is well and truly here but and it aint nice! Iv only thrown up once but tbh that was nearly a relief as I felt better after it. Atm its mainly in the evenings but im literally curled in a ball on the bed feeling like its spinning,. Stuart bought me travel sickness bands so hoping they do the trick. Forgot to wear them today and def feel worse... could be a pacebo affect but i dont care! Not really losing weight from being so sick but, the only thing I wont eat is chocolate/biscuits. Crisps and sandwiches are going down well and my problem is if I feel a bit ill I eat to try and make myself feel better as its worse if im hungry.

How are you feeling? You still off your grub?

Went to dr last week. Dont do much apart from check BP which was normal, arrange for a midwife to contact me before im 10 weeks to arrange booking in app and worked out my EDD. Id worked it out as 13th Dec (going by 40 weeks, pg websites work it out like that too) For some reason my Dr has worked it out as 15th Dec which is 40 wks + 2. I was raging as the chance of missing xmas day with Caitlin is looking more of a possibility.

So thats it, not much to report from me. I'l prob see midwifes in 3-4 wks and get a scan a week or so after that. I cant wait to finally see the lil baby on the screen, it still doesnt seem real - and then I barf and it does

You had any more scans? Oh btw do your clothes still fit? I feel like a fatty but NONE of my bra's fit anymore. had to go and buy 38dd wireless bra's today as couldnt cope. Loads of tops dont fit across chest anymore. My belly is def bigger - prob bloating - but jeans dig in and iv had to dig out my 'fat' jeans. Im seriously considering starting buying mat clothes in next cpl weeks. Comfort is my priority atm!

Jeez this turned into an essay! Hi to everyone else *cough Mari!* who is reading this

()

yeah I'm still feeling pretty sick... I was feeling better over Easter but maybe that was because I was resting more and at home, I went to bed early last night because I Was so scared I was going to be sick I had to just lie down and get to sleep and today I feel even worse *bleurgh*

Ive lost 2 kilo's since I got pregnant cos I'm just not eating very much (although what I do eat isn't good stuff... bread and pizza and pasta and stuff)

I've got a scan tomorrow and first blood tests so I'm not allowed to eat till afterwards so no doubt I'll be feeling sick again tomorrow. I'm so nervous that somethings wrong cos although I feel really tired and sick I'm still sure somethin bad is going to happen

I'm reading too! I'm just nosy!!!

Snoops they wouldn't leave you over Christmas because surely it'd be inconvinient to them to have you in over Christmas and you'd be 10 days over on 25th!!! I'm sure they'd induce you before. Did you go over with caitlin??

Ok I'll stop been nosy now!!
Xx

Jade Iv felt like that too, like it isnt going to happen and there is no point getting carried away . My mum wanted to buy a cot off ebay last week and I chewed the face off her! Realistically its normal to worry and as we have had healthy pg before, I read that there is a 95% we will have a healthy baby once we get past 8 weeks I think. Plus, as we both quite sick its obvious those hormones are building nicely (I say this to you now and in an hrs time i'l be convincing myself Im having cramps). We both need to be positive

Good luck for your scan! Come back on this thread and let me know how it goes, il be thinking about you.

Babymilly, I hope they want this baby out before xmas cos I sure do! Friday is the 23rd so im hoping they would do it then, but im not convinced. The hospital I think im being booked in for allows 10 days over, but another local hospital allows 12 and im just worried they will change policy and fit me in between xmas and new year (suppose if I didnt go myself that would actually be ok.)
I was 3 days over with Caitlin but was induced due to high BP, I suppose that could happen again. I just worry that the 25th is just another day to them, and if they have the staff in then it doesnt matter to them

Im getting way ahead of myself but! I shall wait and see what scan says! My due date could be changed. x

haha I think I'm worrying more this time round than the first time ... weird isn't it!
I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow! I keep telling myself ooh after tomorrow I'll stop worrying a bit but I know that won't happen

Can't you just demand that they induce you before christmas if it comes to that? I mean really at the end of the day it's your body isn't it! I can't believe that the uk let people go that far over to be honest... they don't let you go past your due date here... if you haven't had it by the day it's due your in the next day for induction (if they think you can deliver naturally) or C section!

snoopy I just realised I ignored a complete paragraph of your post - baby brain (at least I have that as an excuse now!)

I was in my fat clothes before I got pregnant anyway lol but I did put on some maternity shorts the other day
my boobs I'm sure have doubled.. they're ginormous. I bought a load of new bra's a few months ago and they don't fit me in anymore... I'm dreading actually seeing what size they are now and having to buy more bra's ggrrrrr.

Ive been sick again *bleurgh* and hardly eaten today but I was trying to eat to get rid of the sickness but nothing was cutting it. anyway off to try and eat some dinner!

scan was fine little bean was jumping around on the screen and all is good

I'm happy, I can stop worrying for a little while... got my 12 week scan on 16th May

Hey, I replied to this earlier im sure My computer did update as soon as I posted so maybe it didnt send, hmmm anyway...

Thats fab news! What does lil bean look like at nearly 10 weeks? I remember at 12 weeks with Caitlin being amazed that she looked like a fully formed mini baby, waving etc. I just wondered at what stage they go from looking like a sac with a blob to a proper baby?

I havent felt too bad sickness wise today but can feel it kicking in again now.

I'l still not have had a scan by the 16th of May and you will have had 3, not fair lol!

Im gonna ask at booking in about induction before xmas but I know they will fob me off with excuses about not getting ahead of myself and I might go early anyway. With Caitlin my BP was really high the last few weeks and they refused to do induction until due date and even the n it was 3 days later she was born as they had to send me home for a night due to being to busy . I think if I told them it was my body they'd prob say fine do it on your own then lol, its me thats asking for help. Urgh. I really want to go naturally the week before, or oh even better have twins lol and have to get booked in for a section at 38 weeks - kidding!

snoopy Ive had 3 scans already so will be my 4th on 16th May! I don't think I could handle having a baby and only getting 2 scans!

At 10 weeks it's almost completely formed, has head arms and legs wriggling around, but its only 3cm so quite hard to see anything, it sort of bounces but if you look you can see its like bashing its legs down to jump up I suppose haha.

I felt rough again yesterday but so far this morning feel ok... but I haven't eaten anything so maybe ill feel ill when I do eat breakfast
I don't really wanna take the tablets the doctor gave me cos he said "oh dont worry they're ok during the first trimester" and so Im wondering what they actually are and how safe it really is... think id rather feel sick than risk anything!
