[Charliebump3]

Welcome to the new ladies and congratulations on your positives xx

Hope your all doing well and had a lovely weekend x

I am going to see the specialist over my hips this week but I doubt there is anything they can do now I am pregnant again!

Has anyone told family and friends yet?

 

[Beverley]

Hello ladies, can I join? My edd is 9th July. I have two boys who are 5 and 3, both ended up being csections and ive had two previous miscarriages oh and I've got PCOS.
I've just joined pregnancy forum and posted a thread because I'm only 5wk 2 days but I've just realised that I can't eat aniseed because it is just blowing my head off intense, my fiance doesn't like aniseed so he thinks it's a sign hehe. Good luck every one xxx

[lottie89]

Hi ladies Im due around the 3rd of July I think depending on how things go (I've had 3 mc's) I'm 7 weeks tomorrow which is the furthest I've got.

 

[Elfs Mummy]

Congratulations lottie fx for a sticky little rainbow xx

 

[umbongo]

I might be in this gang, but awaiting a dating scan! No periods so no idea how many weeks I am. Won't know for a few weeks but thought I'd say hi anyway! Xx

 

[umbongo]

Everything crossed for you lottie! You deserve a super sticky bean xxx

 

[Purple]

Hi Gayle, could you please put me down for 22nd? I haven't had a dating scan yet so this date may change. Already Mum to 13yo Son and 10yo daughter. Got bfp this morning, ovulated 2weeks ago, Hoping for twins

 

[Purple]

Hi. I belong here

I tested this morning and got a very strong BFP. I still can't quite believe it and keep looking at the test lol.

I'm also considering buying another one from Boots as this was just a cheap one off amazon (by Cassanovum)

Going by LMP I'm 4+4 but it has actually been 3 weeks since I DTD so I could be a few days further ahead. But I'm sticking to LMP dates anyway lol and am due 5th July by that.

I have two children who are 11.5 and almost 9 (in a fortnight!), I split up with their dad 7 years ago now. He's not the dad of this baby.

Congrats to you!!!! I got a bfp this morning, as baby was planned, my daughter who is 10 knows that she won't be the youngest anymore, she isn't taking it well at all, says that she doesn't want to be a middle child (although she loves babies)... I haven't told her yet that I am pregnant; I keep reassuring her that I won't treat her any differently but she is still very anxious. Any tips on how to let her know the news? I plan to tell my children when I am 20weeks (if I ask not huge before then)

 

[Phoenix85]

Oh, sounds very similar to me, Purple!

I told my eldest yesterday about the baby, well, he kind of guessed and asked if I was pregnant. He's been wanting a baby brother for ages so is very happy.

My youngest is 9 on Monday and doesn't want to be the middle child either lol. So not sure she'll be too happy.

I'm planning on telling her Christmas eve. I've seen a "Best Big Sister" badge on Amazon that I'm going to buy, and wrap it up with some 'jamas for her to open on Christmas eve lol. I'll be 12 weeks by then, don't think I'll be able to hide it past then.
I'm only 6+4 and yesterday I had to buy two new bras a size bigger (gone up a cup size already) and none of my jeans fit, I'm wearing my old ones that are a size bigger and they are getting hard to fasten. I'm thinking I'll have to buy maternity jeans before Christmas.

I made my booking in appointment yesterday, but it's not til the 29th December which is ages away, I'll be 13 weeks by then, but it's a long appointment and I don't think I'll have childcare because my mum normally works on the afternoons they have the antenatal appointments.
The kids will sit and play on their tablets or whatever, but I didn't want to book it for before Christmas as I'd have to tell my 9yr old before then if I had to take her with me to the appointment.

 

[Charliebump3]

Wow welcome to all the new mummies xxx

I am on baby number 4 and my oldest two know! Although when I did tell them my son was over joyed but my daughter cried hysterically! When I asked her why she just said she was worried about my pelvis and because I will need another operation! Bless her.

I have my booking appointment in a week and I will be about 8+2 weeks!

I've been having lots of cramps toda, I am so anxious about this pregnancy I keep getting a horrible feeling something bad is going to happen!

 

[Phoenix85]

Me too. I get cramps on an evening and whilst they are mild it makes me paranoid I'm going to start bleeding. So far so good though.

I have told two doula friends tonight over facebook so now I'm extra hopeful this baby sticks lol.

Had a really good chat with one which was nice.

That's a great plan Phoenix85... I think she will feel so special as she is the only one to receive the "big sister" gift. It's impressive how your 1st born could tell that you are expecting. And wow @ how big you are already! I wanted to tell the kids just before the 20wk scan Coz I don't want them to have to wait 8 months for baby to arrive but I guess it all depends on when I start showing. Will you have anymore after no.3? I want 1 more so that no.3 doesn't feel like the only child in the house (my kids will be 11 and 14 by July) and so that they can have someone to play with. Thats why I am hoping for twins ... M

@charliebump3, your daughter sounds like a sweetheart bless her!! Congrats!! I too eventually would like 4kids.

Hi Ladies, I am just dipping my toe in but not completely ready to get aboard yet. I've just announced our BFP and our EDD is the 27th July, but we've had a hell of a journey already and I've got a unicournate uterus so things are not likely to be plain sailing, but we're hoping to get to as close to EDD as we can possibly manage xx

I felt the same about waiting to tell them, it's such a long time to have to wait for the baby.

Yes I can't believe how much my belly has grown already lol. But I was a size 8 before (now in size 10 jeans and they are tight), and my boobs were an a/b cup and are now a C so still not noticeably big lol.

Yeah I'm the same, I want another close in age so this baby has a sibling of a similar age as my older two are so much older. Twins would be good, but I'll be happy with just one and try for another later lol.

My eldest texted me that he wants twin brothers lol, I think one of each would be better because my 9yr old will not be impressed if we end up with two boy babies haha.
