Topic: Welcome September 2013 Babies Posted: 31 December 2012 at 8:14am |
Welcome to the Due in September 2013 thread and CONGRATULATIONS on your pregnancy! What an exciting and amazing journey you are now on!
Welcome also to the OHbaby! community :) Here you will get to make some fantastic friends, learn from others experiences and share a tear and a giggle with each other.
We have two Due in Threads created each month - one is public and one is private. The public one is great for general chat and banter the private thread is password protected and is great for you to share photo's of baby bumps etc
If you're new to the thread and want to be a part of the private group also Just pop in here - say hi and that you're keen to be in the private forum and one of your fellow mums-to-be will private message you the password.
Please do sign up to the weekly pregnancy emails - you can do that by adding your pregnancy in your profile (you can also add your scan pictures when you have one and bubs will be there every time you login to the website). We recommend signing up the other half as well so they know what you're going through and how baby is growing too :)

Ha ha, at New Years I told my friends I had a feminine problem and couldn't drink... I think it helped that I was drinking cranberry juice . The frequent toilet trips added to the confusion.

We ended up telling a couple of close friends who we celebrated new years with. Tell me about frequent toilet trips, I am getting up at least twice a night at the moment!

Hi there, I got a BFP just before NY Eve - same as someone else on here, was a bit suspect I was UTD so figured I'd better test before I carried on the Xmas/New Year festivities and what do you know This is No. 2 for us and we are due September 12. Yay, so excited! We had 3 m/c before we conceived our daughter so I am crossing my fingers and toes this all goes to plan. Had hcg bloods taken yesterday, repeat on Monday so hopefully it all looks normal!

Im wondering if my pelvic floor is stronger then it used to be? I have a scan next week. Not to see the baby though (gutted). its for a giant lump in my boob. I get out of a mamogram cos im up the duff and get a scan instead. Yay - no squashed preggy boob!

People's bodies react so differently to pregnancy, I wouldn't worry about not getting the toilet trips. I have some friends who had their first children about the same time as I did and we all got different symptoms, the only thing we all had in common was the increasing belly, and even then some of us got far bigger than others!
Good luck with the boob scan, hope it's nothing. Squashed preggy boob sounds horribly uncomfortable.

babygiraffe - I also got my BFP on a NY eve and am due on the 12th with our second
Thanks Nic! I too think September is a nice time. Not pregnant over summer and not too far away from Spring and the warmer weather.

Not being hugely pregnant over summer will be nice, my son was born 31 Jan. I was one of the only people who was glad last summer was cold and wet!

My first was a November baby and that was quite good timing, but I reckon sept might be even better :-) called my midwife already - feel a bit weird doing it so soon, but I didn't want her to get booked up!

My first was also a November baby which was nice but yes I agree September might even be better weather wise. I've contacted my mw too as I really liked her and want to use her again.
We just told my parents this morning via Skype. My Mum was stoked my Dad is sulking lol

We'll tell our parents after the 6wk scan so we have a better idea of when I'm due and that everything is going as planned.
I've had a chat with my midwife too, I know what you mean about not wanting them to get booked up!

I'm planning to wait until after the 12 week scan before telling. It's hard though! That's why groups like this help!

Good Morning, no symptoms yet for me. I got quite sick last time which started at around 5/6 weeks. I really really hope I can avoid it this time. I have started taking the Blackmores Morning Sickness Formula pills (which are B6 and Ginger) and am hoping they will at least help to reduce the nausea and vomiting a little bit. I have also inquired about acupuncture but am waiting to hear back from them.
Is anybody else loosing weight? I've been loosing a couple of hundred grams a day, the same happened last time and I ended up loosing about 8kg in 2 weeks due to severe nausea and vomiting. I just hope this is not a sign of things to come.

I showed fairly early last time, I'm picking my clothes carefully to hide my tummy. I feel a bit bloated, but my husband assures me it's my imagination I had morning sickness 8-20 weeks last time, and I'm a bit nervous about it coming again. I've put on a little bit of weight over Christmas, but I dropped so much last time with morning sickness that I'm calling it my buffer zone!
