I am pulling my hair out knowing I still have another 7 weeks before our first scan ggrrr, but am trying to be careful in the mean time to keep peanut safe and growing strong.

Question - Have any of you ladies had an interest in a specific king of birthing method? I have been looking into the "Gently Birth" method and I got the book a couple of days ago, some of its a bit daisy chain and hippy but alot of it makes sense and apparently there are antenatal classes you can go to that specifically study the gentle birth method

Hi all, we aren't going to find out - might for later babies but the first can be a surprise. Will be going for a dating scan in a couple of weeks - will make it in my 7th week because I've heard the later you leave it the more confident you can be that if everything looks fine it actually is. Even if that's not true I'm happy enough to wait a while.
Feeling less symptoms this week or maybe I'm just a bit more chilled about it. Still really dizzy/spaced out tho. Still worried about MC but not thinking about being pregnant and not making any baby plans is helping!

Hey Angel congrats on your BFP! I have popped you on the list :) If you have any scan/MW apps feel free to add them in or I can do it for you :)
Smurfette- With my eldest I wanted a real natural drug free birth but he was 10 days overdue and I was in latent labour for 4 days so that plan went right out the window and I had every drug under the sun haha, with number 2 I yet again wanted drug free so made my midwife promise me she would lie her ass off if I asked for an Epidural. Tell me that there were no doctors around to give it etc etc, in the end it was too quick of a labour so I got my drug free delivery lol. This time round I'm not going to plan as such. In my opinion you can't really choose your labour and no one really knows how their body will respond to it.
BakingFairy, How do you manage to not think about being pregnant!! Very envious of that haha
Eeep! Friday is so close now, so so nervous!

We are definitly finding out!!
Mum2Ollie - I know there is no way to plan for the birth you want because so many factors can change resulting in a different outcome, but I think its good to have something to base yourself on, I couldn't just go into it blind not having learnt anything, and I think the more prepared you are in as many aspects about birth as possible the more prepared you will be and in a better frame of mind if things have to suddenly change. I don't have an ideal birth in mind, my aim would only be to safely give birth to my baby, whatever that calls for.

Welcom to the group angel and janey :).
Well it seems I have gone from calm to beside myself in th space of 1 1/2 days. I have my second bt tomorrow and I'm worried because although I have only had a wave of nausea on Monday and then Tuesday I have had nothing since :(. I don't have any other pregnacy symptoms. I'm trying not to freak out but know tomorrow I'll be a wreck waiting for the results argh.

Welcome Angel and Janey!

Sorry to hear you have lost your calm CS! I have everything crossed for a great BT result today, I'm sure it will be just fine Don't worry too much about the symptoms, I haven't really got any either, just the odd wave of nausea here and there but barely noticeable! Last time I had nothing at all!

How is everyone else doing? Anyone been struck with the dreaded morning sickness yet? Hopefully not!

Hello! I am very cautiously joining - only just 4 weeks here! I'm due May 18th, with baby #2! My son Quinn has just turned 2, and to be honest we did not think this would happen this quickly! It took us 2 years to get pregnant with him, and 3 months this time! Bit of a shock still. We had an early miscarriage (at 5 weeks) before DS, so also makes this a bit of a stressful time as well.

Here's hoping to a happy and healthy 9 months for us all!

Well after getting a +hpt this morning best I get my butt in here. Due I'd say around 16 May, pretty early on, still in shock, hubby stoked, my youngest little miss is nearly 14 months so its a bit freaky especially being baby number 5 eeeeeek (hubbys second though)

All the best for your scan today M2O.

Congrats Peaches!

Hang in there CS! It's hard to think positive when you've had losses, so hoping you have lovely high beta numbers!

Thank you :) I am in West Auckland. I'm still in a bit of shock really, we weren't expecting this for a while or at all, especially since I was meant to be getting my studio together at the end of the year I guess it will have to be put on hold oh well doesn't matter.

Hey ladies, Well I had my dating scan this morning. Thought I was about 6w3d but the scan is showing 5w2d. Our sonographer was a useless women, she barely spoke to us at all. Never once mentioned what she could see. I did see her put GS and YS up on the screen when she was measuring the bubble so I'm assuming Gestational Sac and maybe Yolk Sac? She said "Looks okay for 5 weeks, it's in the right place" and "You'll need another scan in 2-3 weeks so we can measure baby from crown to rump and get a heartbeat" literally that's all that was said to us. I don't know what to think. I told her I've had a miscarriage before and that I was worried we would have a bad outcome this time. I feel miserable. If I am only 5w2d then that means I got a +tve HPT at three weeks. Is that even possible? I've been tearing my hair out for the last week, dying to get to today so I can see the heart fluttering away so I can feel better but now I just feel horrible. I just want to shut myself up in my room and lock the world out.
