  • Woohoo! Baby was much more cooperative today and we managed to get lots of measurements. We were in there a good 15 minutes while the sonographer checked everything from the brain right down to it's little tootsies.

    She gave me a more accurate EDD of 30th May, so 3 days ahead of where we initially thought which means I am 13+4 and that my time here has come to a lovely end for now. I will still pop in and try and keep up with you all. If I don't manage to get round to posting I hope everything goes well for each and every one of you, and that you all have a lovely Christmas and New Year, ready to welcome our 2015 babies to the world!

  • Oh glad to hear all went well ringtobe and little one was being more cooperative today.

    So yesterday I told the last sibling (now all our siblings know) and I told my boss, but told her I don't want anyone else to know and she was very understanding about that.

    Then last night when I was out about 7:30 the midwife rung to ask if I was free for my booking in appointment on Friday, so I mentioned that I was already meant to be booked in for next Thursday, which she had no idea about!! In the end after her putting me on hold a few times and going away to investigate she saw I was booked in, but as I am off on Friday anyway I thought I would have that appointment instead so am booked in got 11:20 this Friday- I have to admit the midwives seem so poorly organised in my area!!

    I have had a really stressful day today- at one point I thought I was going to burst into tears!! I was given something important to do but it just wasn't going right and time was running out. I was trying to remain calm as I know being stressed is not good for little bean- plus I don't want people to click why I'm emotional at the moment!! Got in though to a yummy dinner ready to eat when I got in plus lots of well needed cuddles.

    How is everyone else? Does anyone have any good ways of dealing with things when they are starting to feel stressed?

    Another moan time ... Feeling sick as a dog whilst trying to get the 2 year old into bed in a power cut ... That is the summery of my evening :(
  • Oh no rebekah, hope the sickness eases.and your power is back on asap. Do you have sickness all day or more so in the evening?

    I'll have a moan- I'm currently sat here crying!! Not really sure why but once the tears started they wouldn't stop!! I'm never normally a very emotional person which I think is why I'm finding these emotional bursts really tough. I've come up to bed in the hope an early night.will help!! Tomorrow is such a busy day for me, I really need to pull myself together!!

    Oh my goodness, 27 weeks?! That seems to have gone so quickly! So thoroughly thrilled for you that there's so little time to go. :) Any tips for getting through the very nervous early days?? I'm constantly comparing this pregnancy to when I was pregnant with Thomas and automatically fearing the worst, which I know is natural to some extent, but would love to know anything you did that helped you with this pregnancy.

    The only thing I can really recommend is sleep as much as you can and stay busy when you're awake. Also, let yourself be lazy a bit! If you're a worrier, just try to keep your mind off things. A nearly impossible task, I know, but it does help.

    I'm sitting here exhausted after a physiotherapy appointment at the hospital and a walk around town today, but baby is kicking me like crazy because it thinks this is the perfect time to party!

    I've finally plucked up the courage to post in here, as it all still seems a bit like dream! So can I join you lovely ladies please? I got my first ever BFP on 15/11/14. Currently 5+6 and I've got my first midwife appointment this afternoon :j I'm excited, although a little scared as apart from some sore boobs, and a bit of on/off cramping, I've had no symptoms. Thinking I'm either lucky, or something's not right?!! Hope everyone is ok this morning :D

    I can see some familiar faces from the TTC thread :hello: looking forward to getting to know everyone ;)

    Awww you poor thing! I do tend to feel sick on and off during the day but doesnt last that long usually. However as soon as I have eaten my evening meal thats it :eek: Feel sick from around 7pm - 11+. Yuck.Quite intense too :o
  • Hope you're ok ThinkPink - I think sometimes you just need an outlet for all these hormones raging around you're body. It's probably much healthier out than in :)

    Felt a bit retchy this morning, but it's subsided since. I think I'm starting to go food crazy though! I haven't had any difference in appetite since my BFP, except occasionally not feeling like breakfast which I normally enjoy, but since last night I keep wanting food - and very specific food at that! At one point I wanted a maccies cheeseburger (but I think it was just for the pickles), then I really wanted some chips with the meatball gravy you get at Ikea on them, then today I keep thinking about crispy thin rashers of bacon with vinegar and gravy on them - HELP! I think it's just my metabolism speeding up and I'm getting hungrier, but I can't stop thinking about food.

    I suppose I should take it as a good sign that things are happening down there!
