Thanks. Was really excited about it and then today I've just suddenly become really nervous (but then I feel very emotional today, guess it's just those pesky hormones!)

Hope everyone is ok and had a good weekend

Chocoholic, I'm really sorry to hear of your news. Please look after yourself and I hope everything goes ok this week xxx

Thanks sweetilemon. Luckily mine is at 9.35am on Tuesday so not too much hanging around for it. I've got my pound coins ready to buy tokens for scans, and requests from both sets of grandparents for copies. Fingers crossed all goes well.

TamVilla, hope tomorrow goes well for you, and your hormones don't play up too much! I know what you mean about feelin emotional, I've watched a few videos on Facebook that have had me bawling my eyes out the last few days!

Has everyone received good reactions when telling people? One of my closest friends has been trying for a while (not the only one out my friends) with no success but has been really !!!!!y with her comments. I understand it's hard and appreciate it's upsetting when someone else has announced their pregnancy when that's all you want but I'm really getting fed up with the snide digs.

My friend (A) got pregnant about 4 years ago, with her now little girl after she and her partner had been trying for a few months. A mutual friend (L) had recently had a very early miscarriage a few months earlier. A was really worried about telling L but knew she had to so rang her up and broke the news gently. L yelled at her (I was in the room when she rang), told her she didn't deserve it, she was a !!!!! and why was she stealing her happiness, and that she hoped that she miscarried and could never have a baby. L then never spoke to any of us again.

I understand that L was upset and grieving but that was just uncalled for.

Thanks rambos mum. I am in no way discounting her feelings and feel very sad for her situation and can understand how upsetting it must be but there are ways to deal with it and talk things over. Think I just wanted to let it out my system!

It's only natural, I'm sure it'll all go well.

That's a better system, ours are free but I had to ask for more and only got 2 so couldn't give one grandparent and not the other. Hoping to talk them into giving me more at my next scan!

Hi all

I'm 7+6 today after we tried for 9 months, including an early miscarriage in February. I am really scared this pregnancy won't last either, so I've held back from joining you all - it doesn't feel real still!

But I'm hoping to pick your collective brains, if anyone can help. I woke up in the early hours of this morning desperately needing a wee, which was fine. But after I'd been, I had the most horrendous cramp, the echoes of which continued until I fell back to sleep. This morning I'm not really cramping, but I am really bloated and uncomfortable. No blood, not even spotting (which was how the last one started).

Has anyone experienced anything similar, or know if it's normal in a healthy pregnancy? I have my first scan on Thursday, so will find out how things are then, but I just wondered if anyone could help in the meantime - three days feels like a lifetime at the mo

Wishing you all a happy and healthy week x

Congratulations Black Ribboner All sorts of stretching and cramping pains are totally normal in pregnancy. No bleeding is a good sign.

I'm very prone to round ligament pain, caused by everything stretching out around your uterus. I get a sharp pain across my knicker line if I stand up too quickly, and I've also had it after a big wee, I guess the bladder deflating causes something to move.
