    I won't be having a scan til 20 weeks :( my family his family and our closest friends know so I'm happy enough already but don't mind telling at 12 weeks to tell the rest of the family .
    I know people wait til 12 or over just to be safe but anything can happen at anytime and it's too hard to keep it to ourselves :)

    I'll be 9.5 weeks having my scan so I feel its too early tell the world, my parents know only & himself. I'm not really showing, I just look like i've just eaten a few too many big dinners! Cheese Princess, 10 weeks at Electric Picnic thats tough!! Say you've vodka in your flask/beaker you brought yourself and just drink water? You also have a cold sore so you can't share?! Throw in a lemon for taste ;-)

    I've 2 really good mates staying with me at 10 weeks, dinner, drinks, chats & not drinking will have me sussed straight off. I was thinking of saying we are trying properly & i'm off the drink to increase our chances.


    You are one crafty lady EMK....I like it :P

    Just found out today that I'm pregnant!! Due March 22nd. It feels so surreal, like a dream!!! Had been ttc for 6 months.

    Am sssoooooo happy, but nervous. It means so much to me, but I'm terrified that I won't make it 'all the way' to 9 months. Silly, right???

    Mine's not for another 4.5 weeks. It's weird. I don't feel pregnant at all. I have no symptoms, no tiredness, no sickness, not even peeing during the night anymore. If it wasn't for the fact that I haven't had a period, I'd think the test was wrong!

    I suppose that makes me pretty lucky in a way but still feels odd.

    I've my scan tomorrow evening, 10.5 weeks according to GP but I think they'll date me behind that. I'm very excited/nervous. Its officially real, lol! My husband keeps asking what it feels like, bar rapidly growing boobs & odd bit of nausea its been same as usual so far.

    oh I had a women in town today basically tell me i'm pregnant! was buying a dress for a friends wedding in 10 days, didn't want to buy before now in case it didn't fit!
    well then went in to the shoe shop to find a pair and the women there started sayin your leaving it late, and then said I suppose you had to see what would fit with a gesture to her stomach :O!! I just walked out of the shop!
    suppose at least she thought I was pregnant and not just fat!!!

    I thought by the GP I was due 15th March but I knew she was off as i've a long cycle so I'm back to 8w5 or 27th March. Pretty surreal thinking smtg so tiny has a heart beat already! Looks like i'll get to announce it around by birthday in September :-)

    I'd say most peoples dates must change when they go for scan because the GP counts from the date of your last period, but you wouldn't ovulate till at least a week after that.

    Must be pretty cool to hear the heart beat :)

    Pregnancy is always counted from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) and not from when you ovulate.

    But then why does the date change when you have a scan?

    Because people have different length cycles so they go by the size of the baby.

    But the start date of your last period would still be the same, no matter how long your cycle is? Maybe I just don't understand it properly :o

    Your pregnancy at scan is dated by size of baby.
    Unless there's a vast difference your due date will be calculated from 1st day last Period.
