Bump Buddies asked – Ladies can you all remember where you were and what you were doing when you found out you were pregnant? (Aside from peeing on a stick?!!)….
Here were the replies:
Bump Buddies – I’ll start – for my first we just come back from shopping in ASDA and he was kicking off for spending money on a test (even though it was ASDAs own brand – tight knacker he is) and I was petrified when I got two lines and didnt believe it. Was teh most excited and scared I’ve ever been at the same time. Second time we were in Leeds and had been snowboarding but I kept falling on my arse so suspected that preggers brain was in effect. Then spent about 2 weeks panicking that all teh falling over had doen some damage and that the boozy nights I’d had at Christmas before realising were bad too…
AC – i do it was amazing, i found out via a telephone call because my little baby was a very much wanted IVF baby after 5 years ov infertlity. I found out on the monday after a blood test taken on the previous Friday. That was the longest weekend ov my life xx
AH - For me it the test was on a Sunday morning with a hangover!!! I had missed my 3rd period but we had been putting it down to stress of moving. Hubby went for a run whilst I went to naffi to buy a test I couldn’t wait till he got back so I did it it was posetive my first reaction was ooooh shit then I was exited. 3 days later i had my 1st scan And I was 15 weeks.LC – Yep! The bank holiday just after christmas… Suddenly it just dawned on me that I’d missed 2 periods, so went straight up to tesco and bought a test, and came straight back home! X
RS - 1st was after a weekend away in London knew I was pg as my boobs (which are naturally big) wouldn’t fit in my bra, hubby was in the bath at the time. 2nd a Thursday about 5 am as I couldn’t sleep knowing I was going to test sadly I miscarried, 3rd racking my brains and can’t remember poor G’s though as I did 10 tests (all positive) in a 12 week period it is hard to remember them all lol x
NC – yeah, i’d not had a period for 6 months so had been on some tablets to try and get my period back. I’d suddenly got waaay bigger boobs and couldn’t stop weeing so asked the doc if this was just a side effect of the tablets and he suggested a pregnancy test. I was very dubious as we’d done numerous tests before n i was thinking i maybe couldn’t get pregnant. Got home and did the test expecting only 1 line and 2 showed up! We both went off into seperate rooms to think and didnt really talk all night untill we came back together both deciding to keep him
it took a while for the excitement to grow on us like! Cant wait now
CG – First time was at a service station on the way to st ives,this time was at home with an early test and I spent ages looking at the faint line thinking is it? or isnt it? lol x
AW - yea id just been made redundant 5 days prior!!! the look on my husbands face as we approached xmas was a picture lol xx
PPG – Watchin 16 and pregnant n she was havn symptoms id felt so i txt my bf to pik up a test he did n yep i was and still am.. 6 weeks to go
DT – the first time i had bought a test the day before but wanted to do it on the morning so i had waited till my partner had gone to work and did it only problem was then i wanted to tell someone i was sooo excited and i had to go to work later smiling like an idiot all day but not saying anything is so hard lol.Second time i hadn’t had a period for a couple of months i was nervous as we had been trying for about 9 months and there had been nothing and it came back negative so i had gone to the doctors to see why i hadn’t had a period and they said we have to rule out pregnancy first so i did a test and it came back positive which ended with me smiling like an idiot again lol x x
DJ – My 1st one was at home I was a few days late but after trying for almost 10 years I never thought it would happen. My friend was with me and I remember sitting in the toilet & 2 lines coming up I was crying with happiness that was on the Monday by the Thursday I was rushed in to surgery with an ectopic pregnancy lost one of my tubes and I thought my life was over. Then 12 months later Id had a week off work and wes looking through my diary and realised I fas a few days late so said to A I was late and I was going to get a test in true man style he said ” don’t be using them yet cause you know you won’t be ” so I’d come back from the farm went for a shower and I’m so impatient I had to do it I was stunned the 2 lines shot up fast as anything. I called A to come up and he knew I’d done it but was stunned by the results. I know have a gorgeous 15 week old beautiful baby boy N xx
JF – my first one i was at a water park in cyprus was really irregula so didn’t think i was late but the rides made me feel more sick than they should so we got a test on the way home i couldnt believe it when it was positive we’d been trying 2.5 years ! second one id had a miscarrage the previous month so wasnt expecting it either we’d just got a new … See morecar i was just taking for a drive and i couldn’t remeber how to drive ?! so i thought baby brain and so got atest on the way home was over the moon when it was possitive : ) xx
EHMB – i was due on, on xmas day, and i had asneaking suspicion i was pregnant, left it until the monday, and did the test at home alone, was amazed it was positive, best feeling in the world, didnt tell my partner for a week coz wed had a miscarraige few months before and he’d siad he didnt want to know next time until after 3months had past!! took us 3 years to fall pregnant, and it truely is the best feeling in the world, i feel so honoured. xxxx
