*** April 2018 Mummies ***

DS stirred at 5.15am so after soothing him I went down and did my digi. Got 2-3 weeks :)

Then DH woke me at 7am with a cup of tea. :)

Lxx

Thats great lander! Its so reassuring. Not long till you get your 3+ x
 
Just had to have a nap. Ironic that I finally slept when baby slept (he's one in three weeks) because I'm pregnant....
 
Ahhh sleep when baby sleeps,if only i had a pound for everytime someone said that! I've just had a snooze on the couch too,never normally sleep when DD is up but couldn't help it,good job she amused herself with her ball pool. Got work at 630 and I'm soooo tired! Roll on bedtime!
 
We're just off to the in laws for dinner after a lovely stroll around town :) it's been a really nice day. I did have a moment earlier where I thought I was bleeding (that over familiar feeling in your pants that you get when you've come on) but nothing. I've been warned that there's likely to be a bit of bleeding but not much.

We had a breakthrough with DS and potty training when he did his first poop on his potty after we got home!! I'm super proud and hoping this is the start of him properly potty training - would be lovely to have him trained by the time this one comes as we won't have to buy 2 lots of nappies!!


 
Thats great news cossie. A major milestone! Its really nice not to have to take nappy bag everywhere! .....although we are all going to have to get used to it again!

So sad about flower. I find it really hard to hear as you can just imagine how heartbreaking it is.

Enjoy your meal at in-laws. Were going to have take away as too tired to cook!
 
It's huge for him as he's almost been panicking whenever he's sat on the potty. So we made a huge deal about the fact that he's actually done something on the potty and he seems so proud of himself. I don't mind carrying around a changing bag to be honest, I find them handy if you get a decent sized one!

Oh my gosh I know :( my heart is breaking for her. I think she would have been a similar date to a lot of us on here (5-6 weeks) so it makes it so real that anything could happen at any point :(

Thanks Melly! We're having fish and chips courtesy of the in laws so I'm happy with that!!! Enjoy your takeaway!!


 
Thats so cute! I remember my two being really proud too! Think they even had sticker charts! Its good to make a big deal of it....positive reinforcement!

Yes i was thinking the same too....cant wait to get to 12 weeks...at least it will feel a bit safer then.

Enjoy your fish and chips!
 
Tested again this morning. I've been worried that something is going wrong. I think maybe because this is my first pregnancy and it's taken me 4 years to get to this point! But this test made me feel so much better, when I first took a test it said 1-2 weeks and now this one says 2-3 weeks. That means my baby is growing right?
 
Great news Nemi. It means your hcg is increasing so pregnancy should be progressing. Its so reassuring to get that. Roll on 12 weeks! X

I know, I'm so impatient! I can't wait to be able to tell the world and get the scan picture!
 
Likewise! I keep going over in my head what im going to say. Feel anxious about telling people as i know for a fact some friends (close friends) and some family members will judge and i wont get a lovely positive response like i did when i had my other 2 over 10 years ago! DH says their reaction will be short lived and then theyll get used to it...annoys me though....! I'll just have to focus on those that are genuinely happy for me....there will still be a few!

I keep getting the odd bit of brown discharge, usually when I wipe. It appears to be like really old blood. I have miscarried before so I know the signs to look out for and what the blood is like and cramps etc but can't help worry a little. When I have spoken to the early pregnancy unit they don't seem to worry so much about this sort of thing but always say come in if worried. Think I'm going to mention to the midwife on Monday at my appointment, see what she suggests. Has anybody experienced anything like this?

P.s. Does anybody else feel like weeks normally fly but they drag during these first 12 weeks?

Definately dragging! Not had experience of mc or brown discharge when wiping but have read lots of other mummies to be say they had similar and been worried about it but have gone onto to have a healthy pregnancy. I think its fairly common and like you said you know the signs of MC and this sounds different. Worth mentioning on monday so you can get some reassurance. X
 
Totally agree - I found with DS that he weeks dragged til I got my bump and then they just disappeared and now somehow I have a 2 year old! :rofl:

I've never had a mc, I've been extremely lucky so far. Having said that I've had cramps recently and a scan showed that there was a second pregnancy that hadn't continued! Not sure whether that classes as a mc? I was told to expect a bit of bleeding but it shouldn't be too much and shouldn't be bright red. If it is then I need to call and they'll get me scanned asap. I'm sure your midwife will be able to reassure you a bit more.

How are we all this morning ladies? I'm really struggling with the nausea. I've eaten 3 bags of crisps so far. Each time I eat a pack the nausea subsides and then comes back 20-30 mins later!


 
Im nervous as have my scan at 10.45. The last hour has felt like a whole day! Other than that im feeling ok physically. What about everyone else? Glad its the wkd!
 
Oooo yay!! That's so exciting!! :) good luck for your scan Melly! Can't wait to see a picture!!


 
Cheers hun.i just hope everything is ok and we get to heart a heartbeat. Im just so nervous....its ridiculous!
 
Queen bleeder here at the moment. Went to a & e last weekend and had a scan Monday gone. Was measuring 5 weeks very early no explanation for bleeding. Again like last weekend I've woken up today with it again it's pinky brown and is on off. My boobs aren't as sore today either but no cramps x
 
Melly let us know how you get on, sending positive thoughts your way.

I'm feeling ok this morning, had a little nausea this morning and toast and crisps seem to be all I want haha. Forcing myself to eat some fruit and veg x

How much are you bleeding? Did they check your HCG levels? X
