Have just updated my age.

Abis21 - my symptoms are MS, MS and more MS, for the last 5 weeks!!! Oh and i'm so tired! Im being sick every day and constant nausea which gets worse every evening. I try to nibble all day which does help a bit, but finding it very difficult to eat anything apart from crackers and some bits of fruit. I have lost quite a bit of weight already and even went to the docs as I was concerned I wasnt eating enough, but he refused to give me anything (I didnt really want to take anything anyway) and said wait til 12 weeks and see if its any better. Im trying not to complain too much, after all we've gone through so much to get here :rotfl:

As for us telling people, our family and close friends knew at 4wks 3days! With having to go through IVF, everyone knew our testing day so had lots of emails and texts the morning of the testing asking if we had the results yet. Took me a while to do the rounds and visit them all with the good news because I didnt believe the first positive test and had to go buy some more :rotfl:

And then we had to do the rounds again when we had the first scan pic with 2 babies on there! I had a scan at 6wk3days as I was at risk of ectopic and then another scan 8wk3days before being discharged from the fertility clinic

Moneypenny As far as I'm aware they leave twins as late as they can but they normally want to make an appearance a few weeks before EDD. Will find out for sure Thursday at my first midwife appointment no doubt.

LadyM hope all is ok xx

Sorry for the epic post - I havent been getting on here as much as I would like !

*Twinkle*

hi all, Baby number 4 here, feel soooo sick all the time, not being sick but just that awful feeling of bleurgh and the tiredness is unreal, thought i felt cr*p during my last pregnancy but this one feels so much worse!
got my 1st scan on Monday and thinking i'm due around the start of November.......

LittleMoog

argh, was in the loos at work earlier and had to run back into cubicle retching after my colleague came in :eek: She made a tactful exit before I left the loo though so I didn't have to talk to her
Wasn't actually sick though, which is a bonus :cool:

cleofish

hi everyone,

kitten pie- wow congrats on your good scan and wow for finding out its a girl as well, must be very exciting for you.

abis21- i forgot about the botty pain on the TTC thread :rotfl: it was exactly like that but the other place. Havent had any more of it so just hoping it was a one off.Its good your going to be on a consultant team, hopefully you will get lots of care with both.
congrats on getting your scan date as well, its something to look forward to and count the days down.:T

lady m- how are you feeling today? have you managed to have a scan at all today? thinking of you.

sorry to hear about others being sick/feeling ill i wonder how many ginger biscuits/crackers are sold just for morning sickness

Just a general question, how much earlier do they deliver twins?

As others have said, they doctors do not like you to go beyond 38 weeks as they believe that the placenta doesn't work effectively after this point which is a danger to both mother and babies. However, there are a lot of women who go to 40 weeks successfully. I've decided to take the doctors advice and will be induced this weekend at 37+6.

Hi all,

I'm busy on the Mumsnet guide, have already read Preganancy for Dummies and Pregnancy for Men... Worth having a look at the library, that way you can read a whole load

LadyMorticia

Hello lovelies. I'm hoooooooooooome.

Everything is okay with baby.:) I saw its heartbeat! It's so small!

Bloods were normal but I have ketones and protein in my urine but it wasn't explained to me what that means. :S

Anyway, they said that they think the pain and symptoms is just the M.E's way of dealing with the pregnancy.

They advised me to rest more and to take it easy and to not be afraid to use my wheelchair for shorter distances (I do need it for shorter distances but I always try and push myself because I hate to be seen in it.:o).

emsbet

Great news ladym :j I'm glad all is ok. Do take the doctor's advice re:resting as much as you can, pregnancy especially the first trimester really takes it out of you and with your ME I can imagine you must be exhausted.

Look after yourself and your LO

xx

Maddie

Fantastic news LadyM!
