***August 2016 Mummies***

And, how long after going to docs does midwife get in contact?
 
Hey Astra, welcome! Well I rang the doctors and they just booked me straight in with the midwife I didn't even see a doctor so maybe it's different in different areas? I am just waiting on my booking in appointment now and first scan appointment xx
 
I see, I just hate waiting!!!! Lol! And I'm sick of cramps and sore boobies!
 
I'm off to the doc tomorrow, first pregnancy. Receptionist never asks what we want an apt for so hopefully doc will just refer me. I too am getting a couple crampy pains. I can't work out if they're pregnancy related or wind related! :rofl:

I don't have many symptoms. Only sensitive nips, cramps (as above) & almost like an empty sicky belly feeling even after just eating.

I just rang surgery and asked to make an appt to see midwife for a booking appt. it's not until 7th Jan. I've booked to have a private scan at 8 weeks ��
 
Hi ladies ... According to my dates my due date is 24th July, however at my scan yesterday I was put back so could be due 2nd August.... They did say it's too early to give accurate dates but thought I would say hello xx
 
Hey sesame seed!! Did you want to be added to the date section lol? No biggie of course just wondered if you wanted to wait til you know more accurately.

Great to hear from you guys... It's so exciting isn't it I can't wait to start getting appointments through the post! You know things get real once this happens! Xx
 
I'm not sure yet I think I might wait until the dating scan but just want to say hello. And don't mind me if I keep popping in x
 
I see there is an opening for the 5th I will just creep in that spot. I got my BFP on 11-30 really unexpected but happy.
Congratulations everyone and I wish you all easy going pregnancies and deliveries.:dance:
 
Look at all these due dates creeping in. Congrats ladies xx
 
Can anyone else just not contain the excitement, but also aboutsolutely terrified?

I agree as exciting as pregnancy is it's also terrifying. But thankfully my excitement overrides the nervousness /fear. Just leave it all up to God. Congrats Astra!
 
I'm going to dip my toe in the waters... 5 weeks today with an edd of 14 August. I tested positive on Monday, and was honestly beyond surprised at how quickly it happened for us - got our bfp second month trying. I have pcos and anticipated a long, difficult ttc journey.

Went for hcg and progesterone bloodwork on Wednesday, and follow up hcg on Friday. Will hear tomorrow from the doc with results and to make my first appointment.

I haven't been having too many symptoms, except for being super emotional (this morning I cried because a character I like on a TV show was feeling sad...), and a bit of cramps here and there. Oh, and sometimes when I sneeze I feel a dot cramp in my lower right abdomen

Hey mummies to be,
I spoke to my doctor Friday and she's taking me off my anti depressants over the next 2 weeks, I have to go in Monday and fill in some paperwork to be referred to the midwife! I'm really anxious about not being on mess but dr said she hopes the hormones will balance me out. How's everyone doing? I'm ridiculously tired, had a headache for days and super emotional today but that's about it for me! Xx

I'm the same hun, shattered, headache and crying over nothing!
 
Hi everyone, I'm nervously stepping in. Just got a bfp, 4 weeks so due 22nd.
 
Hi everyone and welcome to the new comers!

How was everyone's weekend?

I haven't stopped so just jumping on here for 5 mins which is lovely! Nice to see so many new faces!

Well... Extreme tiredness is setting in for me now... I had a really good long sleep last night but still needed a nap after the school run before work! It's crazy how much it takes it out of you and I actually don't remember being this tired last time but maybe I was... Who knows.

Starting to feel actually "pregnant" now with some mild twinges and aches happening down there now... A nice sign that baby is making a nest!

I have been looking at all the baby shows and the dates of those for next year and there's not that many, think I have the option of February or August which sucks because Feb might be too soon and August is of course a little too late for someone that likes to be super organised!

Are people feeling alright?? Any morning sickness mummies yet?? Xxx
