    I'm not pregnant, but my tummy is supporting you in your pregnancy CBW. Johnny asked me yesterday if we were going to have a baby!! http://www.pimpmycom.com/myspace/gif...olleye0018.gif

    So, although I am not in the pregnant role, I am in the supportive role. LOL

    Do you mind if I live vicariously through you then? You could tell me all the good things that you're eating and I can pretend that I'm the one enjoying them!

    Im pregnant with number 2, I got knocked back a bit at the dr today... could change at the next ultrasound though.. I hate when they go changing my due dates around. Sitting at 13, almost 14 weeks right now... I look about 18 weeks along, lol.

    I just found out I was pregnant yesterday, but haven't gone to the doctor yet. Since pregnancy counts from your last period that would put me at 4 weeks. My first pregnancy so I don't know what to expect but I am excited about it.

    Live it up. I love being pregnant, despite the way I gripe while I am, when IM not pregnant, I long to be... lol.

    It gets even better when you get bigger and people start giving up their seats and stuff... lol.. although I hate everyone touching my belly.

    CBW.. I guess I was talking too much baby over in the other area? Its hard when its fresh on my mind...

    Nah I just thought it might be cool to see how many other lovely ladys are pregnant as well as us Al :D

    CBW, I am in the UK and although I've had my doubts about this country before, I enjoying it now. I love the fact that I can decide when I want to work and how many hours I want to do and still get full pay! I also love the fact that everyone tip toes around me, its so wonderful!

    Al, I've decided to make myself a t-shirt when I'm bigger saying something along the lines of "don't touch my stomach, I bite!"

    Cool tamed that's great to hear another fellow brit we are down near southampton, how are you enjoying the wind and the rain??

    I just like the fact our prescriptions are free for two years lol

    Uhg... IM still jealous about the free prescrips thing... I hate paying 30 bucks for a five day prescription.

    I know there are a lot of pregnant folks out there... wonder where they all dashed off to...

    Free dental too, I'm thinking of getting my teeth straightened and prob bleached just to get them back for the money they've taken from me! Southhampton eh? We're miles apart, I'm in essex.

    OK guys I'm almost 8 weeks and I fill HUGE already this is my third with my youngest not two yet, but anyway while I'm in the mood I feel like venting I am so hungry ALL the time and when I do get nausaes I still want to eat what's up with that.

    OH yeah and I'm going crazy because I have the strongest feeling that I'm having twins with my first two it never crossed my mind but this time around I have had the strongest feeling since I found out I was pregnant.
  • Jun 26, 2007, 12:59 PM
    alkalineangel
    I thought that too just because I was so big so fast, but an ultrasound has proven otherwise. I heard the symptoms are much worse with twins, I wouldn't know personally though. I was pretty sick there for a while, but that stopped a week or two ago, and now I eat everything.

    CBW, I'm around the Upminster side of essex but you're right you could be further!
    Crystal, some say that some women just know that they are having twins, I had no idea I was having twins until I saw the scan as everything (nausea and the works) were within normal parameters. The other twin almost eluded the sonographer by hiding under the gas! Yet I know many women with single pregnancies who's symptoms have been much worse than mine, it all depends really. I must say I am curious as to how big I will get, I've seen pictures of others and they scare me sometimes!

    I'm 17w4d with my first. It is so wonderful! I started showing around 8 weeks, and am huge now! I measured with toilet paper today and am 10 squares around! I started feeling my little one a bit past 15 weeks, so it has been very eventfull. Hopefully we will know on July 16 if it is a boy or girl! (I'm feeling boy)

    Crystal, where are you from?

    Don't worry becca, it will go by quickly! For me the first 10-12 weeks went by so slowly. Now it's just flying by! I was very surprised to feel baby move so early, especially with this being my first. The first movements for me felt like my uterus rolled in my belly. The next I didn't feel until about 4 days later and it felt like a few quick pokes from the inside. Now it's mostly flutters, and I still only feel it every couple of days. Enjoy it while you can. If you have morning sickness it should be going away soon. Eventually we will both be getting kicked hard enough and often enough we will wish for a little break! Being pregnant is so awesome!

    I had that done the other day, it was so nerve racking. I had to go through it twice, I did not like that at all. You looking forward to yours?

    Im not bothered hunn to be honest had it when I was having millie and I know that my specialist will be doing it

    I wish I had your attitude when I was going in but to make matters worse I had to look at all these numbers when she was done. Normally, it wouldn't have taken me so long to realise that they were odds but for some (pregnancy) reason, I just sat there wondering what the hell I was looking at and why no one was explaining it to me. Its done now, I'm glad it over with. How's your mood today CBW? Eating anything good?
  • Jun 27, 2007, 02:36 AM

    Guess I'm just lucky as millie was 8 weeks prem I will get extra care as I'm classed as high risk I'm just not going to stress over it there's no point I know what's coming and what will probably happen.
    Ive just been sick for the first time ever lol I choked on a drink and bam lol
    Not going to stop me eating though I'm just about to get my mocca and cornflakes :D

    How about you?? How you feeling this morning
  • Jun 27, 2007, 02:41 AM

    Looks like we both have something in common then, we're both considered high risk. I do like all the extra attention though, makes me feel special.

    Mmmmnnnn, cornflakes, what's that like again?
    Sorry to hear about your puking though.

    I've just done my fair share of throwing up, not too bad so far so here's hoping! I'm trying to eat a banana which is not going so well, looks like its just me and my water again until I get really hungry.

    Oh goodness, just wait till you lay down to go to sleep and your belly is still bouncing around... lol. That's the best...

    I never had the testing for downs and what not... never felt the need I guess. Its all optional here.
