| Hi, this is my first baby and hubby and I are very nervous - took a test yesterday and it was positive - period was 4 days late and im normally regular as clockwork. Just wondering from some of you more experienced mums, is this a definite 'yes' or should I wait for a bit longer before getting excited? |

There (apparently) is no such thing as a false positive, just false negatives, with your late period as well it sounds pretty definite to me!
It will be free for you to get it confirmed by a Dr anyway, and they will send you for your first lot of bloods etc. CONGRATS! and welcome to OhBaby! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

Congratulations!
It is possible to get a false positive but only when taking certain medicine and you would know if that was the case. Best of luck for a happy & healthy pregnancy!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

How very cool, you'll probably be due around the 5th of June-ish, depending on the length of your cycles. Congrats (you're definitely pregnant btw), and welcome to OB -------------  |

Congratulations! I was sort of in denial as well after I got a positive test... I did 3 more tests before I was ready to start believing that there was a chance that I could be pregnant, lol. When the Dr gave me the pregnancy info pack with the samply baby wipes in it, I was like "what? what do I need baby wipes for?" hehehe 
Were you trying for a baby or did it just happen? What does your hubby think of it? Congrats again  ------------- Chloe (4 years) and Oliver (3 years). |

| hi all, yes we are both still in denial! hubby very much so, he keeps saying, well it's not definite...I showed him all your posts but I think he is too nervous to believe you all! We were kind of trying and kind of not, if you get that - just seeing what happened and letting nature run it's course. I did another one today just to make doubly sure (very cautious about telling everyone only to have it all go 'belly up') and i got another positive! I've booked myself in for a blood test at the doctors on monday, any other steps i should be taking at the moment? And wow a June baby! It's still unbelievable! |

Good luck for monday |

Oh and when do I start my pelvic floor exercises - and how do you do them?? I've heard you have to get onto them early or disatrous 'poise' moments occur for the rest of your life! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

LOL I wouldn't worry about PC excerises for a couple of months yet. Your mw will probably talk you thru them later anyway. ------------- |

Oh the other thing is, have you been taking folic acid? Otherwise ask your doc about it on Monday. He can also recommend mw's to you. All the best! ------------- |

Congratulations!!
Yip you should be taking folic acid, you can get it from the supermarket! There are good pregnancy multi vitamins you can take too. They help with your iron levels etc. June babies are the best!! (ok, I'm just saying that because I was born in June!!) Hope you have a great pregnancy!! ------------- Nicky, Mum to Alex (5) & Sophie (3) http://lilypie.com">
