Wow MrsKW you are brave.
I was wondering whether to start it or not but have been paying visits to the EPU so was going to hold off - but here we go!
I'm due on the 4th or 6th July i think - fingers crossed!
Slow heart beat at the moment so need to be rescanned in 2 weeks and hopefully it'll have increased
xxxx

Hi girls, I've just been to the docs this morning and they worked my due date out to be 22nd July, so I'm very early days but am being optimistic, figure it would be silly to fear the worst for no good reason.

Marparuk, what is an EPU? Sorry, excuse my ignorance. Fingers crossed your little bundle is OK. x

Sorry, forgot to do this bit:

honeybee1981 - Mel - 22nd - Yes - Also will be too impatient not to find out!

Sorry - EPU is the Early Pregnancy Unit at the Maternity Hospital. I self-referred after some early bleeding and they're keeping a close eye on me now so that's reassuring

Also forgot to do this bit:

marparuk - Marie - 4th-6th - Yes - won't ask!

Oh well here goes, that's me in for July!!! I guess I have to think positively and hope this little one is going to stick.

Chick-Bass/Lou/5th July/2nd (first ended in mc )/will more than likely find out as I am far too impatient!!

Hi ladies,

Hope you're all doing well. I'm very early days (somewhere between 5-7 weeks)

Flossy17 - Hannah - sometime between 11th -24th July - yes - prob will find out sex

Here's to healthy pregnancies for us all

Ah, this is scary but like you say chick-bass, gotta be +ve.

NowMrsR - Liz - 2nd July - 2nd (my 1st also ended in miscarriage) - not going to find out (looks like i'm the odd one out!

Hope we all have happy and healthy pregnancies x x

Oh, and after dating scan we figured out that I conceived on my hubby's 30th birthday - told him its a late pressie as never bought him anything!!!

What a fantastic birthday present!!! My hubby has just said that all he wants for Christmas is this baby......no pressure or anything there then!!

Hey ladies, thank you all for joining me after my moment of bravery...must say, as soon as i hit post the bravery left me! LoL

I have edited the first post with all our details so far, and hopefully we will keep adding to it
I've put us in Due Date order, and as and when we have more accurate dates, again, i will amend

Hope everyone is feeling well?

Are any of you ladies struggling with eating?
Im really quite hungry at this very moment, but can not bare the thought of eating anything (is making me queezy)
Ive been trying to make myself eat small bits and pieces (even if its just been crisps!) but am a little worried that im not getting enough calories
