What do you do Kanga? I am guessing NHS?

I hope I can have my 12 weeks scan the week before and then give our parents a picture in their Xmas cards.

I know I am a very long way from being there but I am so sick of being scared and worried.

I want to be like all other 'normal' pregnant women - I want to be hopeful and make stupid, silly plans for the future I guess that will come in time?

It will be amazing to write Xmas cards with the scan pic for everyone, such a great idea.

Not nhs, I'm a cleaning supervisor at a leisure centre, so I have to work different shifts to see all my team. I do early's, like today, and start at 4.30am and finish 12.30 or a late working 3-9pm!! I hate it but didn't see the point in trying to change jobs when tttc as I can take it easy at work and get maternity benefits. I won't be going back after my maternity though!

I think we need to look to the future and act normal or will will go mad, I know I would! xx

I'm really glad i've read what everyone's said on here, im hoping to have an early scan too if i can! I had one with my daughter at 5 + 3 because i'd had some spotting and they couldnt see anything. 2 weeks later at 7 + 3 I went back and there was the teeny tiny heartbeat! It's worth waiting until 7 weeks I think. That said i'm desperate to have one asap! If only we had a little window into out tummies!

I will be going back to work, I have been studying bookkeeping so hoping to be ab;e to that from home after my maternity ends. If that doesn't happen though I will go back to the leisure centre, keep all my options open there xx

Hey kanga how are you doing? I'm studying that too at night school. What are you studying? I'm studying AAT x

 

[kanga86]

I am studing the ICB (institute of Certified Bookkeepers) with the home learning college, I am doing my level 2 in both the manual bookkeeping and the sage computerised bookkeeping. I have passed both my level 1 exams just about it book up my manual level 2 exam and still abit off doing my level 2 computerised.

I am doing ok today, not panicking just taking it easy and one day at a time. Hope u are good? xx

Hey Kanga and CARNAT22, it's great to hear you're both more positive and not panicking (so much). I know it's so hard and I haven;t been through all this before so I understand it's doubly hard for you both, but I think it is important to try and enjoy this. We can help each other through.

Any new symptoms? I'm so not with it at the moment, I put 2 bras on this morning! xxx

 

[kanga86]
