Checking in Smile
I'm getting a bit lost with how far everyone is, should we do a little list of due dates so it's easy for everyone? Or is it just me who's getting confused (baby brain is kicking in already haha)
I can start and if you think it's a good idea just copy and paste your name along?

Rancho - baby#1 - due 15/7/19

Great idea @RanchoRelaxo I'm 29 and 5, due on the 7th of April.

(Although for reasons of sanity, I'm trying to to myself a week later - my due date according to my lmp - so I don't get too stressed when I'm inevitably late!)

Hi all, checking in! I’m 5+2 now and starting to feel slightly more confident that this might stick. I’ve been mostly keeping my distance cos I don’t want to get my hopes up knowing how common miscarriage is in the first few weeks. Getting loads of symptoms though so I guess that’s a good sign, high hormone levels or whatever?

I’m due 25/9 I think.

Morning ladies, thanks for setting up a new thread! Checking in :) 8+6 today, due date 31/08/19.

I'm very excited. Actually I'm finding it pretty easy (dare I say it!) at the moment. I'm not that 'big' in my bump yet and I'm not feeling too tired or heavy - but I certainly know I'm pregnant now. Takes me a bit longer to get out the car or turn over in bed. But I really can't complain. I'm sure it will get worse!
I've 3 weeks left at work, the time has just sped by- but I'm so ready now. I've just completed my birth hypnotherapy course (been to 3 x 2 hour sessions) and do at least 1 hour of practice per day (started at 20 weeks). I have a doula all sorted. Generally feeling positive and confident really - bring on the baby!

Hope you're all feeling positive!

Ah here you all are!!

A reminder for my stats- I'm 4+2 (newbie to the group!), age 30 and this was my 5th cycle of trying. Expect lots of anxious questions from me as you are all so much further than me! Xx

P.S I'm due beginning of October according to my apps.

I was posting on the other thread about lack of symptoms right now. Had quite a few around the time of implantation but they seem to have stopped. Would love to hear any advice people have of those who were similar. Thanks already to @sunshine1987 for your advice 😊

So week 6-8 I had no symptoms and was that worried i booked an early scan- everything was fine!
Then 10 weeks hit and wow I felt like death. Sickness and nausea was unreal and i lost a stone in weight (glad of that now I feel better 😜)
Try not to worry the symptoms might come later and if they don't it doesn't mean something is wrong or to worry about.
Feel lucky you feel okay now and enjoy food while you can 😊 @Bettythecat

Oh my god, @LuckyKitty13 you're so good doing an hour a day! Had an intensive hypnobirthing course two weeks ago and we've only managed to practice a handful of times. 🤦 It's already getting easier to get into the zone though and we have a plan for reorganising life a bit to make time when we get home from holiday tomorrow. Hopefully we'll get more dedicated like you.

3 weeks left at work, that's so exciting!

@Bettythecat I just had PMS symptoms at your stage. Plus more cm than usual. The morning sickness and fatigue crept up gradually over the next 2 weeks.

@stormtrooperjulian I completely understand. I didn't really do anything on the pregnancy board until my 12 week scan. Possibly silly but I didn't want to jinx it. We're here when you need) want us though. And yes, that's a very good sign. MC can feel inevitable on here sometimes but try to remember that most pregnancies are successful.

@Bettythecat I had barely anything in the first 6 weeks apart from quite a lot of discharge, sore boobs and quite tired. Oh and period like cramping and very vivid dreams which I still have actually (I'm 7+2). Bang on 6 weeks I got nausea, extreme fatigue, food aversions, heartburn... the list goes on. I think it's quite normal to have minimal symptoms up until around then.

Had my booking appt today. My midwife is so so lovely I'm so happy. Went through everything and was so helpful. Put me at ease about my cod liver oil tablets too which was a big relief. I didn't know I would need to wee in a cup when I got there so had to down water during my appt. They've temporarily moved my date forward by 9 days - this isn't right though cos I know when I ovulated - so will see what they say at the scan. But they have me down as 8weeks something and I'm not.

Thanks for making a new one @MrsC87!!

As above baby number 1! Im 7+2 (though maternity notes saying 8+something haven't even looked cos it's not right). Got my scan on 22/2!! When I will be 11+2.

@ChaosMoon my teacher told me the only way to make it effective is regular practice, so I'm determined to do it as much as possible. I did find it very hard to find the time at the start, but as I increased the time (forced!) from about 28weeks, I really found that time seemed to appear for it. I'm quite addicted to the feeling of hypnosis and as you say, it does become much easier the more you practice.
