Thank to everyone who's showed their support. We feel a lot more positive about it all today. We're ringing the hospital first thing in the morning to get a consultation about the ERPC and then we'll go from there. It's just so strange that it happened like this. My wife's body was going through...

Hi all, We've just been for our first scan only to find out there's no baby. It died a while ago but my wife's body decided to carry on with the pregnancy. We're so gutted and just wasn't expecting it. She now needs an ERPC to deal with the rest but can't have that until next Wednesday. That's...

Here's a little tip. Boots have been selling out of Pregnacare in our local branch so I just ordered and payed for it online, and it's delivered free to your local shop. Just walk in, sign a bit of paper, and walk out with your 3 for 2 vitamins...

Afternoon all, My OH has been taking Pregnacare Plus since finding out she was pregnant (we're coming up to week 11 now). Do not worry about the Vitamin A in Pregnacare Plus because there isn't any. To put your mind at ease have a look at the following links...

Well I went to the midwife appointment this morning as my OH wanted me there and I'm glad I did. There was a lot to remember, but also my brother has got a blood disorder which slightly affected his bone growth so the midwife wanted as much detail about that as possible which my OH would not...

I presume this is our booking in appointment and therefore paperwork will be necessary. I've also read that they will do blood tests and a smear test? My OH hates (and I mean HATES) having a smear done (but I'm sure all women do). She's been twice in the last 6 months and both times they have...

Now it's 2-2 on the do I/don't I go debate. Best of 5?

Thanks all. It sounds like I should probably save my holidays for when I'm needed more. I'm also sure that it will be my job to fill in all of the forms :roll:. I suppose it's the least I could do...

Hi all, My OH has her first midwife appointment on Tuesday (10 weeks). What should we expect from this first appointment, and more to the point, do dads-to-be generally go to these with them? I really don't mind either way and I don't think my OH is bothered either way. The first scan is...

Stupid women's clothing. They only design them that way to confuse blokes. Tops, bras....it was only this weekend when the missus bought a new skirt. At least I thought it was a skirt. It turns out it's a strapless summer dress. At least with men's clothing tops are tops and trousers are trousers...

That must a bloke thing...I had to read that 3 times to actually see what was wrong with it :doh:

Classic! Perhaps we should change the title of this thread to "the stupid things people say"...

Do you point out your other half's stupidity to them? Have you ever thought by pointing this out that it makes us worse for the fear of seeming stupid. Are men allowed to point out women's stupidity? Of course not. It's more than our life's worth! :wall2:

I presume there's a thread on this forum somewhere for all the stupid things women say??? We're under a lot of pressure when our other half's pregnant...we can't be perfect all the time!

Ginger nuts and toast didn't help this morning. Sickness really started kicking in. The missus wasn't too good either...must have been the wine I drank last night. I've actually found myself doing voice-overs in a Big Brother style when she wakes up in the morning...."Day four in the hormonal...
