Ladylegs thanks for the welcome...hey anything I can help with I will.....but dunno how many brain cells I have left after 3 kids hahah why am I doing this again? lol

What I'd like to know is, if you don't mind sharing, what your first symptoms of your pregnancies were, and about how long it took you to get pregnant:D

My bleeding has got heavy in last 24 hours so rang EPU they said maybe it is my period, I said is that possible as I have been spotting constantly and she said yes !! you can have spotting up until your first AF after a mc. So took my self to the toilet and done test it is still +ve I cant tell you what that has done to me.

No course I dont mind hun erm lets see well my eldest is 12 now :eek: and he wasnt planned as such (I was only 20 when I fell and 21 when I had him) I cant really remember much of the symptoms as such with him as I dont think I had that many but I had a threatened miscarriage at 16 weeks (I dunno if thats a technical term but thats what the doc told me) and I bled all the way through- only spots but still very very scary, they scanned me monthly but couldnt find anything wrong but they induced me at 40 weeks in case it was a problem with the placenta- he was fine and we were both ok after so maybe it was just "one of those things?"

My second DS we tried for just over 6 months as I was desperate to have kids close together (ended up with them 17 month apart)....with him I had every damn symptom going sickness started straight away, tiredness you name it I got it... was tested for diabetes early on as I put on a HUGE amount of weight (went from 10 stone to 13 in 8 weeks!) I was carrying a lot of water though.....however (and please I really dont want to scare anyone with this this wasnt a common pregnancy), I developed high blood pressure at 20 weeks, I went into labour at 31 weeks but didnt get further than 2cm and it all stopped (had to have steriod injections then that I can remember clearly it hurt like b@@@h!) I was eventually induced at 36 weeks when my b/p went to 120/90 or something silly like that....he was born very ill and had pneumonia was given only a 25% chance of survival in the first 48 hours...he was in intensive care for a week then scbu for another 2.....turns out I had undetected group b strep (something I didnt find out until I was pregnant with my daugther but thats another story!) hes a strapping 10 year old now and bright as a button!

With my daugther I again wasnt erm trying my Oh and I were only together in the December and I was pregnant by June.....all the "textbook" symptoms with her the first that stood out was the horrible taste in my mouth and the taste of tea made me retch! It tasted like someone was giving me fat to drink haha... I was monitored all the way though with her by a fantastic consultant who got my notes from my previous hospital (I used to live in Warwickshire) thats when we found out about the GBS....was supposed to have antibiotic drip 4 hours before I had her but she came in 45 minutes so there wasnt time so she had to get them for 48 hours after birth.

I think thats why Im a bit crazy this time round to be honest as I have fallen pretty easily in the past and I just expected it to be the same again...still every month it makes me more determined to have another one!

I hope I havent scared anyone with the above Ive gone into a huge ramble again...sorry I dont have anyone in RL I can talk to about these things... hahah I realise now you were only asking for the symptoms at the beginning *oops* (maybe I should go back to my cupboard now....lol)

But it's the same as FF on PC isn't it?
I'd rather save the money for the baby:p
