we found out a week ago that we are pregnant after waiting 8 years, we are so happy, I really am but I am soooo scared to be too excited, I'm staying really calm, people must be thinking 'well she does'nt seem very pleased" I am honestly!! i've been trying to work out how far gone I am, i have a really long cycle 35 days, I'm getting different dates on all the websites offering due date calendars?? then i think well i'm not going to the toilet much something must be wrong, i feel like i'm going mad? i know it will all be worth it, has anyone else felt like me??? thanx for listening

Hi Hayley!
I feel exactly the same as you (but haven't been trying as long) - my OH keeps asking me if I'm happy because I'm not jumping through the ceiling with delight! I feel serene and calm but also so scared - I can't let myself get my hopes up until I see that first scan because until then, I don't think I'll believe it.
I am also getting different due dates so I am just going to go on what the doc/midwife says this week and try and disregard all the internet sites etc.
I have quite strong symptoms (I think) - exhaustion (going to bed at 8.30pm), nausea, feel full up all the time then STARVING, tender abdomen, slight cramps, lower backache etc but then I worry about all the symptoms that I've not got - like I don't need to wee all the time and I haven't been sick - so does this mean something is wrong?
I am going to see the m/w tomorrow and I think I'll feel a lot more chilled out after this. My main problem at the moment is that I can't quite believe it and keep thinking that all the 5 tests were wrong and I must be imagining things - I just can't seem to believe it!
Good luck with everything and keep in touch!

CONGRATULATIONS!
And I think you ARE going mad. That's a good sign. Pregnancy does that to you.
Take it one day at at time. Then one morning you'll wake up and find you're past the scary 12-week mark. And later, you'll wake up and realise you've hit 24 weeks, and that if things went wrong and your baby came, it would stand a chance of surviving. Then you'll suddenly realise you're at 37 weeks, and if baby comes, it won't even be early!
Well done!
