    Hi to all the newbies, We have all been trhough tose early days and the worries that come with them so feel free to as all the questions you need to. I sure did.

    I wish I understood that whole not feeling preggers feeling. My morning sickness has gotten so bad that I am now 3 kgs lighter than when I started. This is normal for me, with Campbell I/ only put on 4 kg and he weighed more than that.

    I have been behaving and doing no house work and keeping off my feet as much as possible and the brace seems to be helping. It keeps the pain in my pelvis instead of up into my stomache. Bit sore today as I had to wash it I have been wearing it for two weeks really needed a wash.

    Neptune what is carpial tunnel like. I have had pins and needles in my fingers tips a bit lately. I have decided that whatever can go wrong with this pregnancy will. I am just waiting for the gestational diabeties test because I am sure I will have that to.

    Sorry for the whine I am really over being in pain and feeling sick all the time. Hope everyone is doing well. One week to scan and to find out what we are having. It will be just my luck they wont be able to see.

    Hi girls,

    just to update.Sadly I am losing my little miracle bub. Bloods this morning confirm it, and the bleeding has become heavier with severe cramping. Lost the plot at work so they have sent me packing early and I will take tomorrow night off too.

    Tonight I think a large drink is in order and a good sob....

    Good luck to you all and wishing everyone and H/H pregnancy! XXX

    Hi ladies. May I join you?

    After almost 2 years and 9 months I have just gotten my first ever BFP. DH & I are equal parts excited and terrified! I haven't even been in touch with our IVF clinic since our last BFN with them in June, but I'll be calling them tomorrow and seeing if they'll do a b/t for me!!

    Hi ladies

    well I have no idea where the last week and a half has gone, but I wanted to let you all know that we did it!!!

    We welcomed Hamish Charles and Lachlan Edward into the world last wed - 09.09.09.

    Both boys were much smaller than we expected - Hish was 1.46kg and Lachlan 1.23kg- but both are doing supremely well and now out of intensive care and into the special care nursery.

    I am one blissed out mama and cannot describe how much I love them. It's so intense.

    C-sec was a really positive experience, Bf going reasonably well so far, and mama and daddy just enjoying staring at our little miracles

    sorry it's taken so long to let you all know what's happened!!

    Thinkng of you all

    DrBeee, I am so sorry that thuis wasn't your time. Take care of yourself

    JenC - Fantastic!!! Congrats on the birth of Hamish and Lachlan, sounds like it was a fantastic experience!

    Juniper - WElcome, it is wonderful to see you here!!!! I rememeber hanging with you in the LTTTC thread a few months back. STicky vibes to you.

    Grub - Hello girl! Don't worry, we have only just come up with a name. I was easy and had quite a few that I liked, but DH wasn't too keen. He came up with one the other day and it just feels right! WE both like it which is a step in the right direction.

    I only had to take off my rings a couple of weeks ago, but now my hands are disgusting; blotchy and purple and numb with carpal tunnel in the right hand. I hope you don't get it, it is quite uncomfortable. Can't hold a cup of tea for more than a few seconds.

    Ahhhh whinge whinge whinge. I am nearly there, so don't want to complain too much!!!!

    DH now has 7 days off from work. SURELY I will have a nursery by the end of this week (when I will be 37.5 weeks????). I live in hope!
