Congrats to the Oct 09 babies! It seems like only a few weeks ago I was starting the thread for the Oct 08 babies! (Then Lily decided to come a few days early and become a Sept baby instead!)
All the best for a safe, healthy and happy 9 month months!!

Morning Ladies,
I'd like to introduce myself as I am expecting baby number 2 in October. I've never joined a forum before so am a real newby.
Doc is monitoring my HCG levels as was only 195 the other day, so fingers crossed it's increasing and fast..!
Am a little nervous about having number 2 as my daughter Dakota is only 6 months old. Scary thought having 2 under 2 but am looking forward to the challenge.
Will let you know if twins, first pregnancy - 2nd embryo didn't make it.

Welcome DonnaB - its great to have another October mum join our group.
Goodness another one who might have twins!!
Do you know what your estimated due date is - I'll add you to our list.
I'm new to forums too - the lingo is a bit overwhelming at first (they have abbrevations for everything) but there is a post under admin which lists them all.
I'm starting to feel sick already - which I'm going to take as a good sign given the last time I had no sypmtoms at all and that one didn't end well.

Hi Littlestar,
Thank you for your warm welcome.
My EDD is 01 Oct 2009. So only just in this new forum.
My DD was born at 34+4 weeks so could have an Aug or Sep baby yet. Fingers crossed I go full term this time.
Thanks for the heads up re abbreviations. Have found this list - am familiar with some but quite a few.
I too am feeling rather ill.. I was with my DD as well but this one feels worse. Are you suffering all day or just in the morning..?
Don't suppose this heat helps either..!

It seems to be an all day affair. I get ill if I'm hungry or have eaten - so there lovely patches during the day when I feel fine. I'm going to rethink the whole meals thing and maybe having lots of little meals instead might work. I just wasn't expecting it this early on (naive I know) but I can't complain cos it means my wee bean is sticking on

Personally, I found small meals throughout the day much better than 3 big ones. I always made sure there were carrots and celery cut up in the fridge. Prunes are good too, for two reasons..! LOL
Worst thing is cooking MINCE..! Ewe.. Always makes me feel wrong.
But nausea is a good sign as well as tiredness.

Welcome DonnaB!
I'm starting to have little moments of spewiness throughout the day, nothing major yet, just kinda yuck. Didn't have that the first time around either, so hoping it's a good sign! I'll take what I can get.
Are you guys telling anyone yet? We're trying to keep quiet until 12 weeks, but boy is hard not getting busted. I'm pretty sure my SIL knows, but she's had no confirmation. It's kinda fun having our little secret.

My family know and a couple of close friends but for now thats it. I won't tell anyone at work for as long as I can, but given they know about the MC they might notice if the MS cranks up a gear. I don't really want to lie about it either - so I'll keep it quiet until someone directly asks.

So far we've only told my best friend (because she announced she was pregnant, due the same time as me!). And I've also told a recruitment agent as she is working with me to find some part time / contract work - I planned to go back to work just before we found out!
Still haven't told parents yet, but I think thats because it hasn't totally sunk in yet - and as it is the second, whilst still incredibly exciting, I don't have quite the same level of wanting to shout it from the rooftops if that makes sense. We are going to wait until after our dating scan in about a week or so, and then tell parents.

Hi NZCupcake & Donna . Our wee list is growing bigger all the time.
I too have been starting to feel a bit off at times - mainly when I'm in bed & first thing in the mornings. It is definitely a good sign though. As Donna said, I doubt the heat is helping & I just have to remember to drink lots of water.
So far I've only told a couple of friends (not particularly close ones). I will tell my parents this weekend when they come up to stay. Other than that, we will try & wait a bit longer to tell others. I'll leave it up to DH to decide when he wants to tell his family.
Hope you're all having good days & not suffering too much.
