Well girls after letting myself get a little excited I have had af pains today..... Just been to the loo and still nothing on the toilet paper but checked cervix and had pale pink cm from up there.... I would love to think it is something other than af but she is due today and so think she is coming, no where near full flow..... But just waiting now!!!!!!

3054 - i hope not, i'll keep every thing crossed for you.

looby - thank you, how was coniston?

I've just had an email from hubby to find out how many weeks pg I'll be at the end of august. Anyone know any easy ways to work it out I keep missing count?
He's got a conference in Dublin, and I was thinking of going over with him for a holiday before, and staying through the conference (I know lots of people who'll be there) and flying back to bristol with him for his nans 90th birthday on the august bank holiday weekend. He's just had a thought I might not be able to fly without a recent doctors note which would mean having to get one in dublin for the way back.

Clalee you're about a week behind me, and I'll be 30 + 3 on Sunday 4th September when we fly to Greece. That means you'll probably be on the cusp of 28 weeks a week before, on the August bank holiday weekend. You need a doctor's note for any travel at 28 weeks or later, which means even if you leave when you're 27 weeks, if you come back at 28 weeks you still need a note.

Your travel insurance should cover you in the event the doctor says you're too at risk to fly, just check the policy. If you don't have TI, book it now before you book the flights.

3054, think i'm joining you with the potential AF arriving. Been having cramps for the last week almost and went to check after you'd said you had, and the cm is more now with darker reddy brown gunge, so I think she's on her way, ah well onto month 5

squeezedd

14/03/2011 at 11:55

Oh, and you won't need a note from a doctor in Dublin - the one you get here before you fly out there should be fine to cover you if you're not going for more than a few weeks.

cheers squeezed,
I'll have to check the travel insurance before we book anything. I might be tempted to go out before the conference and fly back to my parents before I hit the 28 week mark if its that close, spending some time there before hubby gets back. I can always train it back home afterwards, though thats somehow less of a problem I know where my parents doctor is if I need a note.

14/03/2011 at 12:03

oo sorry missed the second bit, I thought you had to have a note five days before each flight, or does that vary between air lines.

LiB - I hope your not out either

squeezedd

14/03/2011 at 12:19

I guess it probably varies between airlines in that case. From what I read it was a note to say that you weren't likely to give birth in the next couple of weeks. It's worth looking for the airline policy though.

14/03/2011 at 12:21

Looks like you'd be 28 weeks on Weds 24th August. I think!

cheers squeezed, you've been a great help. I'm not doing very well concentrating today, which is a bit of a shame as I keep getting sent things that need doing by tomorrow.

Hi everyone,

Ive not posted for a while as been realy busy looking after my dad whilst my mum and sis are on holiday..he's getting over a recent cataract and skin cancer op so Ive been his taxi to various hosps! and suduko partner while waiting in boring corridors!!

Many congratulations to Clalee, that's such amazing news!!! Looby, I think you are being so strong, I went through a m/c with my first in Dec but it sounds like you have a amazing family to help you through.
3054, think you are in the same position as me..I was due on Sunday but as I have had crampys pains since yesterday think AF may be coming..I have a test here with me now though. I had a horrible dose of food poisoning when I was in Tunisia when pregnant last Oct(I didn't know I was 4 weeks at the time) so if I had crampy pains then they may have been masked. My symptoms so far are weepiness at anything (even Eastenders dear god), sore boobs, nausea, weeing for England and very tired. I usually spot 2-3 days prior to AF but absolutely nada so far just creamy cm.

DO I TEST NOW??? :roll:

Congratulations Clalee - i'm so pleased for you.

I couldn't work out where i had got to on the last thread so i'm glad a new one has started although i'll probably be just as lost.

I'm still waiting for an positive on my opk hopefully any day now and me and hubby are making the most of it and bd'ing whenever possible (he thinks all his christmases have come at once)i really shouldn't wish my life away but I can't wait to be able to test.

I have to confess i have been feeling a little guilty everytime i look at my baby boy - i don't know how he will feel not being the only one (when it happens) and he is so cuddly at the moment it's almost like he knows he will have to share me.

Anyway good luck everyone.
