**** April 2019 mummies ****

[JomoMama]

Congratulations to all the new mamas to be on here! Wishing you all the best! How is everybody feeling today? I can finally say that my symptoms kicked in yesterday at 5+1 and have continued into 5+2 - I feel like poop! Nausea and (TMI) really tender nipples are my biggest symptoms, nausea was so bad yesterday I had to get my OH to get the pasta sauce smell out of the kitchen as it was making me feel so sick and gag. Hope everyone is well xx

I've had a chemical. Lines were getting fainter but today had a not pregnant on a digital. Won't be able to try for a good few months as have a holiday booked for a wedding next May. Really devastated.

Congratulations to all the new mummy's! Ive updates the due date list and its looking like april is going to be a busy month!

Nausea has been so bad lately. To the point i cant even eat or drink anything although i know ive got to. The thought of chewing anything makes me gag! Hopefully it will disappear over time!
Hope everyone if well!

Hello lovelies. Got my bfp this morning a day before af due. Fx it sticks and all goes well. Congrats to you all, so excited to share our journeys! Can you put me down for the 19th please!

 

[Niknaknoo]

Sorry to hear princess. Hopefully you’ll get your bfp quickly when you start ttc again.

Welcome haylz!

 

[night owl]

Welcome haylz and congratulations

Laura I hope the horrible sickness eases up for you soon,

Have had a few waves of nausea myself today and I’m so tired! Been getting some niggly lower back ache and a few little cramps around the front every now and again, but done another test today just to compare from yesterday and a nice dark line popped up straight away, clearly darker then yesterday’s so that has reassured me a little.... these next few weeks are going to go soooo slow!

 

[JomoMama]

So sorry to hear this princessp, wishing you a bfp soon xx

 

[Rubyredslipper]

So sorry to hear princessp

Princessp so sorry Hun I had one in June. Fx for next cycle babe.
I’m all booked in now 1st September I’ll meet the head midwife of the new hospital I’m going to due to what happened at my local with my second I am so excited for my homebirth and it’s so far away haha xxx

4+1 today and been having little sharp twinges and lower back ache, got 2-3 weeks on clearblue this morning and a nice strong line on Asda test so I’m happy with that, will do another clearblue in a weeks time to check it’s gone to 3+ then I will stop testing!

 

[JomoMama]

When I took my tests I was about 4 weeks and was 3 days passed my missed period. I got a very quick, strong positive on a non-digital clear blue test. Then I took a digital clear blue test the same day and got 2-3 weeks - it’s now more than a week later and I’m 5+3, but I haven’t taken another test since those first two!! I want to see that 3+ but I sort of want to just wait til my 8 week scan so I don’t just start terrorising myself with testing all the time! I figure that as long as there’s no bleeding or severe cramping there’s no problems, but then again lots of people seem to be testing every day and I’m not! So I don’t know whether I should test again or not! I’m thinking not.

Don’t test again! I’m just a basket case cause of my previous miscarriage, there is actually no need at all to test again once you’ve had a positive test to be honest I’m reconsidering my plans to do the clearblue next week - I’m only terrorising myself (love this choice of words) and feeding into my own anxiety and the weeks indicator thing isn’t even that reliable anyway

I completely understand your anxiety. Even for me, someone who has really no experience of pregnancy, it’s so tempting to keep testing. But I just try to keep in the back of my mind that a positive mindset goes a long way and that sending good vibes to my little jelly bean can’t do any harm! Whatever you decide to do, do it with confidence and I wish you a very happy and healthy nine months! Xxx

I tested again today as my first one was on the day AF was due and was very faint on a Boots own. did a clear blue and got a strong positive so I won’t test again now!
Got myself booked into the midwives, first scan will be on or about 24.09 and am just waiting for MW to call now!

Makes it feel real when you’re booked to see midwife doesn’t it! 10 days to my first appointment!i did another test last week before we started telling people just to make sure but I’m not testing again either.

Wow pink! Have you got other children or is this your first? I’ve got a little pouch but I’m not gonna lie that was there before

 

[Rubyredslipper]

Blimey pink!! I haven’t lost all my baby weight from DD so I can at least so I’m just fat lol
I’m desperate to tell people but I don’t want to until the scan. I think we will tell parents and brothers/sisters at DDs birthday party next month, it’ll only be a week or so until the scan then and there’s no way I can hide not drinking prosecco in my own home haha!!
