Team Pingu Bumps

OK So I braved it.

We decided that in our little cycle buddies section cd1 1st July, here we go again we'd all gotten so close we wanted a point where we could all keep in touch those that still ttc and those that fall this cycle.

So this journal is for all Here we go again girlies to keep informed about our beloved 15 or so friends, ttc or preg.

Obvs anyone is welcome to read etc, a tale of a mixed bunch with :bfp:'s, :bfn:'s. Anything that us girlies wann let each other know!

So here's to the trials and tribulations of team pingu and team pingu bumps

HIYA

This is fab
Do you think we should have our dates of :bfp:s (when we get them) scan dates and due dates and any other important dates due on the first post so its easy to find?

I feel like a naughty school girl sneaking in to the class aboves break out area lol

Just found you here. This is great.
SS - Was unsure how you worked out 4th of April as you EDD. All the due date calculators online say mine is April 7th. Do you have a different cycle length to me? CD1 was the 1st of July for me with a usual 28 day cycle.

Owo, First day was 1 July on a 29 day cycle, NO idea tbh, Fertlility friend just gave me that date 04/04/09? GO Figure unless it goes on ov, I ov'd on 12 July.

Rah, yeah sounds good, how shall I go abt that one, think your the whizz with the creation hehe! if you wanna give me an idea and post it or pm me and I can copy onto front page in edit? Is that what you mean? Hope you don't mind that, I'l obvs put by designed by Rah. hehe. Or shall I just edit it daily with all the info I know? hmmmmm? But great idea cos be nice ot see at a glance, whats going on!

............................:bfp:...........Due Date................Scan

Something like that and just update when you see info or people PM you? what do you think?

Your an abs star Rah! LOL

OH and please can you change my due date to 7 April, FF is the only site to say I'm due on 4 April. Any ideas why that would be? I think Owo's is also 7 April as we're on same cycle only her's is 28 days mine 29. Thanks Rah! So glad we haven't lost ya you'l be over here in no time! :dust::baby:

But in order to keep on fn page you'll have to do the editing or shall icopy and paste it in the first thread? sorry i'm a dinni!

I like the idea of having the chart on the front page. Shining_Star if you edit your original post you can add it to that.

My BFP was 28th July and my EDD is 7th April.

Done and dusted in the second post, hope meets all's approvals and hope to be adding to it real soon!

So I've opened up a journal of my own too so not to clog this one to much, but in brief i feel ill today, feel sick, constipated and have begins of uti. But not worried abt the pregnancy at mo, it's not cramps, just general tummy upset pain!

thats great!!!

Hay i feel like that but i have :bfn:s :cry:

Well i finally called the doctors, i still don't believe that i am actually pregnant. Well i believe it, but i'm just causiously happy this time rather than extatically(sp) happy the first time.
I see the doctor on Wednesday 6th at 11. So the chart can be updated with that date.
SS- Hope your doctors appointment goes well today.

Owo LOL at my docs app bit long wionded but wrote abt it all in preggers journal! He did nothing, just tell me to make an app on mon, surely cld of done that bit over the phone or at reception, not preg test check nothing! Aside from faff abt over sum anti b's. LMAO :rofl: Just cannot believe it.

Rah well could still be it hunni, not :witch: yet, oh i so hope you find a internet cafe to keep us infromed!

I have to say not feeling so pregnant myself today either, (which is kinda scary,) but I guess as long as no stomach ache should be fine. I've not felt too sick, I'm not eating as much as usual feel very bloated, and some of my waist bands are a bit tight, so think I must be holding alot of water. But thats abt all folkes!

Love and hugs xxxx

Best of Luck to our 3 bfp's so far and a healthy few months ahead of you

We will be damn well joining you soon!

Hope so Sammie, look forward to it.

Well got really scared yesterday as had tummy pain whihc felt like cramps but in my back and had watery blood in the toilet. I was so terrified I went to sleep to stop myself crying my eyes out.

Anyway turns out it's just my water infection cos it's in my wee, it's really painful and is being a bit of a B:witch: tbh. I think the crampy pains may hav been my kidneys going back to docs mon or tues afternoon abt it, never had one quite so bad before!

However its scary cos I've had no nausea today either so am a little worried things are too quiet. (just keep my finegrs crossed.)

I feel like i'm the only poster! (eek how sad.)

Well I got a feeling on rah, tanya and sammie, so hopefulyl you'll all be over here really quickly!

SS- You're not the only poster. I was away at the weekend so had no computer access.
My nausea seems to be ok today. My boobs are starting to resemble Pamela Anderson's :rofl: I have lots of stretching sensations going on down there.
I wouldn't worry that your doctor didn't do anything. It does seem to be the norm. Last time i told the receptionist i was pregnant and they didn't want to see me until i was 8 weeks. It's only as i told them i had a missed miscarriage that they are seeing me early.
I bet that was scary with the blood in your urine. I'd be freaking out. Sounds like it is linked to the UTI though, so that's good.

Some more dates for the chart. 22nd August midwife and 31st August scan booked.

Hey Owo, glad to see you on here, is the scan your seven week one? Be nice to see piccies, how exciting.
I'm feeling good, Been a little nasueous today, but guess i'll get used to it. Took the kids swimming this afternoon, was really nice but am absolutely shattered!

My scan is actually going to be in week 8. I had to book a private one as the NHS wouldn't let me have one. I chose week 8 as there is more chance of hearing the HB and it is passed when the last LO stopped growing at 6-7 weeks. Only three weeks to go, so can't wait.
How are you feeling now?

sorry owo abt that. aww, am sure all will be ok, seems so almost out of reach being eighte weeks, and then twelve weeks doesn't it.

My uti completly cleared up thank god, was getting a bit worried, turns out I'm not resistant to the anti biotics which is just as well as lord knows what else could of been done.

I am abs shattered today swim was lovely but exhausting and had a nap for two hours again and am still ready for bed.

Seriously I've said it before I'll say it again I cannot comprehend how I coped working during my first pregnancy, and my heart truly goes out to all those that are. This early pregnancy thing is exhausting.

Glad the UTI has cleared up!

I will be over here 'offically' before you know it then you will wish for some peace and quiet lol

Owo quite excited a scan in 3 weeks and being able to hear the heart beat will be great and put your mind to rest

:hugs:

oh dear dear dear, looking a bit bleak, haha not much going on here you pingu's get your bumps and jump on this band wagon plse, asap!

Trust me i think i speak on behalf of all pingus we are doing all we can to get our pingu bumps !!!
I cant wait to get over here on an official visit lol

Hows it going anyway hows all the symptoms and keeping secrets??

Well the secret keeping is fine at the mo, But then it's not so hard cos she lives in different area so we don't see her too much, but next sunday she's coming to get my son for a week, and then we're staying down there for a week after that so I'll have to tell her esp if I'm being sick by then, was really really close this morning!

My boobs have stopped aching I have no sex drive much to dp's disapointment! LMAO. Feeling rather sick and dizzy, but all in the name of bumpkin, so hay ho!

So SJNAMS; where are you your a pingu bump now!

I hope to join you over here at the end of my current cycle!!! It is only CD3 for me roll on Sunday as that is when :witch: should leave me and I can start my SMEP in ernest by :sex: like my life depends on it:rofl::rofl:

Hi ladies... just wanted to drop in to say hello to our little Pingu bump team members!!

Hope you are all doin great & keeping some seats warm for the rest of us?? LOL

Love to all xx

Hi, Yes we are very busy keeping all these seats warm :rofl: We need some more :bfp: this month.
I'm doing ok. Very tired, feel like i need a nap constantly. Look like i have a disease as i am so spotty everywhere, the boobs are still quite sore and i'm still having the odd bout of nausea.
Can't wait to have the scan in 16 days (not that i'm counting :rofl:)

Hey Girls,

Thought Id wander over into the promised land to say Hi!!

Really hoping I get to join you this month!!

Glad to see youre all ok!!

Lots of Love xxx

Really hoping you girles can join us too. I think all is ok here. I'm going through the constantly feeling sick and hungry phase, trying not to eat to much, as I put on too much weight with first ds, don't wanna put on much more!

Well hellloooO! I may be joining you as I had 2 positive tests now!! Got bloods tomorrow :D

someone else joining us too but will let her announce it !!!! 2 more for us Pingu's

Hey Bumps!!

How you girls doing? Well 5 down, a few more to go!! How exciting! Keep those seats warm for us! Hopefully we will be over this month too!!

Lots of Love xxxx

Hey Sammie Hooray! Hope bloods go well and you enjoy your nine happy healthy months only a few weeks after some of us! GO PINGU (he's sum lucky star!)

Hope everyone else is good, I'm feeling slightly sick but not as much my boobs are huge, buyt today I'm aching everywhere and feeling a bit paranoid about my pregnancy, no reason I guess, just having one of those days.

Well look forward to hearing from you fellow pinguers! Love & Hugs

They didn't do bloods in the end, nurse didn't know what she was looking for as i had a BFP. Weird woman. Anyway, saw a doctor, he did BP, gave me more folic acid, and I've put my name in the "midwife" book lol, with request for early appointment due to m/c. That was tuesday, so just sit and wait!

Some days feel tired and preganant, others im like hmmm was i sure there were lines on it! (there were!!!)

Im a day ahead of you lol going by LMP!

Hi bumps!!

Hope you are all doing well? doubt i'll be joining you this month :cry: but i'll be starting my CBFM trial in a few days so hopefully you guys won't have to wait too much longer for me!! (fingers crossed)

Love to all xx

Hi Girls:hi:
Sorry, Im late finding this thread, Im only just finding my way around the pg forums....didnt venture over here much before:blush:

Well I got my :bfp: on 18th April and am now 4 wks and 1 day pg:happydance:
Really hoping for a sticky this time around too!

Congrats to Sammie and Good luck to all the other 'pingu's' hopefully you will soon be joining us!

:hug: to all.

Hey Girls,

It's good to see Jacqui and Sammielouize over in Pingu Bumps.
A quick update from me.
I saw the midwife for the first time this morning. BP and Urine tests were normal. Got my forms to go and have a blood test done in a week or so and my form for my blood test to be done the same day as my scan for the Nuchal Fold test. so I am officially "booked in". It was the same midwife as last time which is good as she is really nice.
I have been feeling really nauseas the last few days and have to go to bed at 9 these days as i'm soo exhausted. The midwife says they are good signs, which i know but it is starting to get me down a bit. I'm glad I have a three day weekend now so i can try and get lots of sleep.

How are you all feeling?

Hi Girls, Ive been struck down by a bug so am not feeling too well atm. BBs are sore and growing:blush: Im feeling really tired too but I'm not sure if this is because Im poorly? I hope it doesnt last for too much longer though.........:hissy:
Ive got my early scan booked now for 10th Sept (my birthday) this will be the date (asuming everything is ok) I will start my pg journal, I just cant bring myself to do it as yet:cry:
Im still waiting for the results off my hcg betas but the hospital dont know their ass from their elbow at the moment , but hopefully will get them all before this next week is out.
No other symptoms as yet, Im gunna regret saying that arent i!!:rofl:

Hope you girls are all well xx

Hello, back from some camping fun!

Sore bbies starting, dont look bigger but keep getting in the way
Tiredness, but could just be camping wearing me out
Headache yesterday, had to take 2 parac, that scares me cos i got one when i m/c last time :cry: DP telling me to stop worrying :D

Got a letter today, midwife appointment on Tues :D bit earlier i think, will be 9+2 then, doesn't mention scan but hopefully that comes pretty soon.

Went for a run/jog tonight. Have been going once to twice a week for few months now so going to try and keep it up as long as i can, phew was harder tonight.

Hope your all well! Owo, sammie and shining are all within a day of each other :D Quite interesting to see who gets what appointments and when :D

Hi Bumps

Just popping over to say hi and glad everyone is growing (inside) nicely but all the tiredness and sickness doesnt sound too appealing lol

Hope your all keeping well and resting when you can

:hugs:
Sarah

PS dont i will be over here this cycle either :cry: just not feeling it but will be testing in 7 sleeps lol

HIYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Im here and really here!!!!

OK so i woke at 6.30 did my temp went the loo and thought what the hell i will test will help keep Nickys nerves its only a :bfp:!!!!!

The line showed up straight away oh my god!!!! i cant stop crying/smiling
I woke hubby to tell him and he was happy in did try to look but fell alseep again
Its a def line almost as dark as the control

OMG i feel sick with excitment!!!!

PS dont i will be over here this cycle either :cry: just not feeling it but will be testing in 7 sleeps lol

hehe, welcome !!!:happydance::bfp::happydance:

How long did it take for it to sink in????
I did another test this am still :bfp: :rofl:
its madness!!!
We went out on the town last night with his best mate and wife and she guessed buy my second lemonade lol so we told them and i told my best friend so thats everyone told till 12 weeks if i can keep my mouth shut!!!

We saw his brother and another close friend out last night as well heres me with my J2O which is very out of character! so thank god they didnt pay too much attention!

So exciting:happydance:

Rah that is brilliant news. It didn't really sink in for me until i saw my LO on the scan yesterday. See my post in First tri. Pic isn't great as i had to take a photo of the pic to get it in digi format. Such a relief that all is well this time. I can finally get excited about it.

I think it probably sank in about six weeks, kinda felt a bit real when my period was two weeks late! LOL. However aside form the terrible nausea I don't really feel pregnant at all.

Love & hugs to all

Blimey Girls, I cant believe youre all (apart from Rah) so far along already!

Thats brilliant!!

Cant wait to join you, although I fear I may be the last as Im out this month due to illness, which sucks!

Sorry to hear you're sick. that sucks! Hope you feel better soon.
I know time is really flying by. 9 weeks already. Three weeks tomorrow until my 12 week scan, can't believe it is so soon. I'm sure you'll be joining us soon. It seems to be three a month so far getting their :bfp: in team pingu. That's a great success rate.

I've got my scan on 23rd september. feeling pretty good most days, tired and grumpy on others. no sickness.

scared to hell and back for the scan but excited too.

Hope your all feeling pretty good, 10 1/2 weeks for most already, seems to have taken ages to get here though!

Good Luck with Scan Sammie! I cant believe its all happening so quickly, you guys will be well away before I step foot over here!

Hey guys just saying a quick HI
Im not having any m/s at the mo :happydance: so just going to prepare myself for it all lol
Getting the 'odd' feelings down there and makes me smlie knowing whats happening

I told work this week so i could get my risk assessment done they said to keep 6ft from xray and stay off the oncology list and just be careful with moving and handling which i am so thats ok next one is at 12 weeks unless anything changes so thats good

I also told my parents last night i felt guilty not telling them and thought if something does go wrong they will need to know i was preg in the first place but not quite the responce i was expecting shock didnt come close!!! they didnt speak for 5 mins and then said they thought they had another year or 2!!! then dad said he wanted to be 60 when he was a grandad not 55! so eventually dad said congrats and i think mum was still in shock when we left an hour later although she did manage to ask if it was planned which it was and she seamed a little shocked by that as well
Will go round at the weekend and see if shes talking to me lol
Now to tell hubbys parents tomorrow!

Hey pinguettes!

I have to apologise ahead of time, I completly forgot we had a chart on here too as I've been doing one oever in due in april lol and kinda forgot there was a second one here. Sorry :( So consider my wrists slapt!

Sammielouize have you got the date for you bfp? Jacqui have you got anymore scan dates etc. All any more app dates etc and I will pop them up!

Love & Hugs

I saw Pingu Bumps not doing so wel this month, was really holding out for nickyt to get hers but hey how hopefully means they'll be six in October!

I had my scan today and been moved forward a week to the 1 April, haha what a joke. So I some how sneakily snuck over to the second tri and it's really weird reality check!

I got taken back 3 weeks on my scan on Tuesday. But heart was beating away, all is fine. Just wish I could magic a 12 week scan now too, cos the next one is 20 weeks :(

Where hae you got a chart going hun? Seem to miss lots on this forum lol, too many places!
