  • Welcome walby, snowy and snowbean (sorry, i have forgotten in about 30 secs!)

    Hope you are all well and feeling confident. I am really nervous as I am not feeling pregnant enough! I have no symptoms apart from a little constipation and a bit more tired and generally feel completely normal! I think I am 6+3. Also I did a Clearblue a week ago and it said 2-3, then another a week later and it said 2-3 again, I am sure there are plenty of logical reasons but I was really hoping for 3+.

    Sorry I am moany, have a doctors appointment on Tuesday so I will see if they will give me blood tests or something... Otherwise I guess I need to wait and see...

    Glad ther is good news otherwise, I need my PMA back! It is silly to be wishing for sickness, but I am! :o

    I am feeling really nauseous, it has really hit me this week (9 weeks today) The thought of any food makes me want to be sick and feel generally unwell.

    I am happy for this symptom as I haven't felt pregnant before now. However I feel as though I can't complain about feeling bad because it will jinx things and make me feel like I don't want to feel like this when in fact I do. Does that make any sense?

    I have my scan on Thursday and really scared, we will be in the same room where we saw the boys not moving :( There is no other room we could use because we have had a scan in each room so there will be a memory no matter where.

    Just really anxious at the moment, OH is too so at least we can talk to each other.

    Ps. Welshgirl I have been wishing for sickness for weeks and finally got it :D haven't been sick but wasn't last time either. Don't panic about it most ms doesn't begin until at least 6 weeks so you have plenty of time to get sick if you want.

    Hope everyone else is well and symptoms are getting better or worse depending on what you are waiting for :D

    Hi lil_lady. From what I understand if it's not your first pregnancy your belly will tend to pop much earlier. At least you haven't got long to wait until your scan when you'll know whether it is twins or not. Have you got a date for the scan yet?

    It's funny actually because although there's no history of twins in either of our families, both DH and I have wondered about it. I asked DH the other day how he would feel if it was twins and his answer was "absolutely overjoyed" which was so sweet it nearly made me cry! We are expecting our first and I'm 9+6.

    Hi everyone :)

    Hope you are all doing well, sounds like we are all ticking along nicely.

    Just a quick update from me. Nothing too much going on really. I'm 5 weeks today and feeling a bit more relaxed. I don't feel pregnant at all, but I am ok with it.
    I am in two minds whether to tell our families. In one way, if something bad were to happen again it would be nice to have their support, but then I also don't want them to be upset again. It's difficult...DH just says its up to me...hmm!

    I've got a stinking cold, woke up yesterday morning with an awful sore throat and so now I am sneezing all the time and all bunged up with a headache. Not nice!

    Oooh those ginger chews look interesting Laura. I pass a Holland and Barrett on my way home from work so I think I'll pop in and get some. I'm willing to try anything that might help at the moment!

    Morning all

    I am feeling positive today, just got 3+ on a digi at 5w+1, wahoooo. Tried on Saturday morning but still said 2-3 so I'm really pleased things are progressing ok at the moment :)

    Still no symptoms but maybe having this cold is my own unique symptom! I am undecided on whether to go to work today. I feel ok to go, but last time someone was ill in my office lots of people complained that they should stay at home if they are ill, but I hate having a sick day!

    I'll definitely check out those ginger chews if I ever get the sickness...hope so! hehe.

    How is everyone else doing?
