Garrrr, Sammy, 12 weeks already! Fingers crossed for that scan!
On the opposite side of sympathy, a couple of girls at work don't know about our past, and will say stuff like "isn't it awful?" And I have to change the subject really quickly, because I have trouble accepting the sympathy. Half of me hates being at work with everyone around me doing my work for me, but the other half wants to hang around, because it actually won't be any easier for them when I'm gone.
There's a disco party in my belly! I think it's all the tea I've been drinking today. I'm having a tea and stitches day. As in sewing, not sutured skin

hey Angelfish. The uterus doesnt get big enough to leave the pelvis (below the pubic bone) until 12weeks and only then can you start to feel the smallest orange sort of shape. Some women dont look at all pregnant until 20weeks. Im 16 on friday and im normally a size 12/14 and i am just looking a little 'winter' chunky if you get what i mean? I am hoping to hid it til 20weeks and this is my 4th bubba.
Dont stress!

Just been thinking that its been quiet in here and then saw its the june thread? did i miss something? Is there a July thread??
Registered User
tegam thank you i have seen on here other women who have been at my week that can feel the uterus already so i was kinda of worried. i know that i worry allot but after loseing one so close to this one i worry about everything
Registered User
Angelfish dont worry hun, everyone is different. I didnt actually show untill about 20 weeks or after and couldnt really even notice it myself until about 14 weeks. I know its hard not too stress when youve already lost one little angel but just think when you get to where i am youll be wondering why you wanted to be showing. Im feeling huge now and its so uncomfortable (even though everyone keeps saying "gosh your tiny for 35 weeks")
Tegam no theres no other thread that im aware of, it probably just hasnt been updated recently. This thread is like that at times, sometimes really busy and you cant keep up and other times so quiet that you wonder whats going on
AFM feeling pretty good, looking forward to this week being over and not having to work anymore. Have had alot of hip and back pain through the night so finding it hard to sleep but at least when im not working ill be able to snooze through the day too so it wont be as bad.
Take care everyone, talk soon

Hi all - well I pretty much have been moping in the absence of my little fur baby! Pathetic... but somehow I am enjoying being so self indulgent. But the good news is he's apparently doing well in his little radioactive bunker - things going in one end and coming out the other and not too much of a hell raiser. Thanks for asking KIT - I'd have George, but my other furries might get upset.
Sammy P - well done on reaching a milestone.... it does get better as the pregnancy progresses, but I found I found "other" things to worry about!
Audax - loving little bubs kicking DH... hee hee. I actually makes it real for them.
Angel - in my second pregnancy, I was hardly showing at 22 weeks.. I was sooooooo disappointed. But don't worry, the more pregnancies you have the earlier you show.... this time around I had a little pud at 6 weeks which people at work were noticing and so was I as I wasn't fitting into clothes I was fitting into only 2 weeks ago. And I had lots of intense nausea, so wasn't eating much at all.
Teagm - I agree with Elise - no other threads! I hope you get to hide for that long too! Maybe part of my problem was so many pregnancies in such a short time, even though they didn't get to term, they got far enough to stretch everything.
I am not sure who said it on the last page, they were talking about sore breasts? I still have them, but the intensity varies.
Kit - I understand why you wouldn't let George on your chest/tummy whilst feeling ill. I had long term nausea a few years ago and I was forever pushing the fur babies off my chest/tummy, and eventually they got the message and curled up on/in between my legs. I really loved the fact that they kept me company during my many sleepness nights, but like you there is a limit. A girl has to look after herself.
I had a really good Obs visit on Friday - things are just going swimmningly and bubs even put on an acrobatics show for the obs ..... go little disco baby.
Sorry if I've missed anyone... it's not intentional.
Elise - I hear you girl, about being a little uncomfortable at night - I also get pins and needles in my arms, but if I move them they go away. But I don't worry about it, as I don't have to be at work or anywhere at all, so if I don't feel well I just stay in bed in my pj's - a girl has to be comfortable. Which is after all what my Obs wants - rest and comfort. I was talking to DH this morning and realised I am going to have to shift my thinking very soon. For so long for me, the signs of labour have meant emergency and sadness... and as this pregnancy progresses, all those signs and symptoms that I have been so scared of happening, will actually be good things and herald the imminent arrival of this precious little one. That is really a big shift I need to make.....but it sure is exciting.

wow Dory you are so right! It will be a big shift and one i guess you wont know if you have made completely until the time comes. But its ok to have a few more weeks. When you "feel" baby is ready then you will be able to process the fact that its ok to let go! Labour is an amazing journey that should ALWAYS come with a beautiful reward. I am sorry that you havent got to experience that YET! 9more weeks and you can tell us all about it! Woo hoo you are one stronge women!

hi girls havent got much tim inbetween cookin and keeping my little ones happy, i have another scan on friday i pushed for another one lol, just want to make sure bub is ok, and given my history of m/c's since ttc in nov/dec i think i have the right to be wanting another scan to make sure things are a ok! m/s is just as bad which not complaining just wishing i was able to eat without feeling sick, but doing well with my fizzy drinks and m/s tablet only throwing up once and that was when i forgot my tablet lol. 8 weeks today yay! another week closer to the end of the 1st trimester so excited i did a naughty thing and bought more unisex outfits but were so cheap i couldnt ignore! i hope everyone is going good, and bubs are doing well!

Well done, hope all this good news continnues. Also hoping I have some news of my own very soon in the form of a birth announcement. Take care

Hi girls,
I'm going to tip toe back in here real slow....I got alast wed (11 dpo) and the line (and the other 5) was a lot stronger than the +'s I had last month....and I have had no spotting yay!!
So at the moment I am 4 weeks 4 days, so hoping this is third time lucky
Registered User
IONA!!!!! FREAKING AWESOME! So happy for you honey, glad the lines are stronger and your feeling positive! Eeeeee!!
Afm, sadly my grandpa passed away so DH, sister and her DP and I are heading to QLD for the funeral, it's very sad but he lived a long and happy life, so it's a celebration as well. Looking forward to seeing everyone and oh so slightly scared about throwing up or stinking out the entire plane on the way there! I'll just gesture towards DH and smile a lot, lol.
Registered User
Could not have said this any better LOL!
Through up on a plane with DD1. Was so gross, in one of those bags LOL....

thanks tegam
