    Guess what, we're EDD buddies! Xx

  • I did a cheapie test yesterday (my period was due yesterday) and it had a very faint line. I then did again this morning-another faint line. Then again tonight. Faint line!! I think that means I'm pregnant but it is quite faint but def visible to the eye. I'm too uncertain to be excited yet as is my hubby! Sore breasts & extreme tiredness would fit! How far on we're people on here before you made a Dr appointment? I reckon EDD will be 19th Feb 2013 so very early days here. Thanks! Xxx

    If your doc is anything like mine don't rush. They don't do any tests, just give you a phone number to make an appointment when you are at least 7 weeks for your 10 week scan. I thought they'd do a test or bloods or something, but cost saving and because shop bought are pretty good now they don't bother. Maybe go get a digital test? You might want to leave it for a couple of days to let the hcg levels increase a bit as that is what makes the lines appear.

    It does sound like you're pregnant though- congratulations :)

    I didn't go to the doctors, just to the midwife and she filled in a form and went through some of the booking in questions, then I had to ring for a booking in appointment for the rest and blood and urine samples

    unless you have any concerns you want to discuss there's not much the doctor will do x

    So glad the scan went well Amyloofoo! :)

    Congratulations Msmoneypenny! :T

    Been feeling really queasy today. :( The only way I feel OK is if I have something to suck on; I now love Ricola lemon mint sweets! :o

    Birdie I'm the same, except for me it's spearmint polos, they're amaaaazing lol

    forgot to say congratulations to msmoneypenny

    is anybody else getting clumsy and forgetful? i have been so much more than usual, dropping stuff, kicking stuff, whacking my arms against things. yesterday i went to ikea with sister and niece, sister bought three things, i carried them from the trolley to the car and then 20 minutes later when i was home and talking to mum, i could not remember what she had bought! not exactly MENSA material at the moment...

    oh well, today i have crumpets and i am very excited about them lol x x

    I'm already clumsy TL so can't say I've noticed a marked diffference! :o I have cut my left hand 3 times this week though?!

    Got mouth ulcers though, which is always delightful. Bought Corsodyl but can barely keep it in my mouth 10 seconds without wanting to retch, so not sure how effective it'll be!

    These last 2 mornings I've woken up at 4.30 feeling like I've got an empty stomach so I 'need' to eat but not feeling hungry enough to actually feel like eating. Quite uncomfortable really and I can't get back to sleep; thought I'd try to get up and have a biscuit and a little milk today to see if that would help but it didn't. Not sure what to try tomorrow?! I feel so grotty now! :(

    Oh and I feel massively fat and bloated but I've lost 1lb! :o

    Hi Birdie :wave: I was like this in the early weeks so I used to keep a cereal bar or Belvita breakfast biscuit on my bedside table, have a few bites of it (while still half asleep usually) and then go back to sleep. That seemed to do the trick for me.... only downside was all the crumbs in the bed!!

    Thanks for the tip MrsJ! I'll give it a try tonight.

    My SIL's cousin was so bad throughout her entire pregnancy she often got up and had a couple of crumpets in the middle of the night! I really don't want to get that bad! :p
