Has anyone had what they thought was periods during pregnancy ????
I haven’t been well recently, suppose you could say pregnancy symptoms. My issue is we haven’t actually done the deed in months and I have had what I thought was periods. I have been vomiting a lot/ been bloating and sorry for the tmi but piles came back ( haven’t had them since second pregnancy 7 years ago )
I just took a test this afternoon which has come up as a very clear positive, took another and the same result.
I am so confused right now. I will book an appointment with doctor of course but I’m in completely freak out mode.
It defo wouldn’t be planned I have 2 DC 13 and nearly 7.
Partner and I have been friends for a very very very long time but only started dating 11 months ago.
I don’t know what I am actually asking 🤣

Wow. At least it’s not twins.

I am so pleased for you all OP.

40 week "consciously pregnant" terms are overrated!

I have a similar age gap with my brothers.

Get some sleep! Lots of sleep.

Congratulations, I'm elated and excited and so very happy for you all. What a wonderful gift.
A big brother and sister to do the spoiling and for you and your DP a shared baby. Your brother will be fine.

Hahah my other half is just like “ s* this is a bad time for all the shops to be shut “ 🤣
Thank you ! - 1 kid has gone to bed super happy, the other in his bedroom so we are going to have a quiet night with pizza and a movie and do some online shopping.
