@Bibijayne I'm not long after you then! So excited for this new experience!

Have you contacted a midwife yet for around the 8 week mark? Not sure what to do!

So sorry to jump on this thread but I wonder if you can help me. Im 23, took 5 tests and only one has shown positive result. I don’t know what to think or what to do next. I need confirmation but doc told me to wait a week and do another one. Any advise appreciated , thanks

Yes, I'm exactly one week ahead of you, will be 5 weeks on Thursday! Estimated due date 13th September. Have just booked an early scan for 8 weeks - 12 week scan felt so far away!xx

Hey ladies, I just got my bfp and I've worked out that my due date is 20th September so I still feel it's too early to get excited, 3 weeks + 5 days according to the calculator but I'm trying to not get my hopes up for a few weeks until I'm a little further down the line!

Congratulations to all of you, it's the most exciting way to start the year!

MissSophie I've just realised that we must have the exact same due date as I'll be 4 weeks on Thursday too! I'm 29 and this is my first, ttc for 3 months, just feeling like it's too good to be true!

Booked 8 week appointment with midwife for 31 Jan.

But I'm impatient... so I've booked an early private scan for 20 Jan (they do them at Mothercare).

Hi girls! I’m 6 and a bit weeks pregnant with my first, due date is 3rd September. Got my first midwife appointment in a couple of weeks, so excited!
Anyone else feeling really nauseous all the time?? Started feeling really sick on and off all day this week, gone off food too. Any tips/advice would be very appreciated!

@gracieee I just feel exhausted and until I eat in a morning I will feel sick! But then I feel sick if I eat certain things. At the moment my main symptom is back ache and just feeling tired a lot. But I expect it to be worst in the next week or two as I'm 4 weeks tomorrow! X

Hi Everyone!

I'm 5 weeks today so EDD is 12 September.
I don't want to get excited yet so scared something will go wrong.
I want to get an early scan at 8 weeks too but scared to book it in yet.
My friend told me I should be self referring to midwife? Has anyone done that yet? I'm moving house in the next few weeks so will have to wait for that.

@Squiffy01 yeah I believe you ring your local gp and ask for a midwife appointment/details? I'm not sure myself going to ring my gp and go from there 😊

I’ve been to Drs for something else this evening and you book in with the midwife at your GP practice.

I’m due 6th Sep with first bean too, phoned my doctor (saw them today) and they took some info, and gave me number to pone Central midwifery unit to book my midwife appt and 12 week scan which they did for me on the phone call. Also told me to keep taking folic acid for first trimester and healthy start vitamins (which were free from the chemist - well inane cork and anyway!) xx

Hello! I’m new to all this, so please bear with me 😂 I’m 32 and had a BFP yesterday, and going by last period, due date is 17th September! So 4 weeks today. Trying to not get too excited as soooo worried about everything! Only real symptoms are mild cramps (period like but not painful), sore breasts and a slight queasy feeling a few times a day for past couple of days. Haven’t yet booked a GP appt - that’s tomorrow’s job! Think we will have an early scan though as not sure I can wait another 8 weeks! Congratulations to everyone else in the September club! Here’s to the next 9 months 😂💖
