June 2014 (earliest of early days yet!)

[wispaxmas]

I decided to take a peek into the antenatal club threads, but there's no June thread yet, although for good reason.

I may be jinxing myself here, but after a couple very very faint positives on ICs for the last couple days I got a positive on an FRER this morning, so thought it would be safe to start one up.

Of course, still early days, but if it sticks my due date will be 3-5 June, depending on several websites.... What can I say, I tested early!

I hope someone comes to join me soon. There have to be some more recent BFPs....

ahrgh called the surgery for the blood results and my thyroid levels are 'normal' but every single bloody site i read says to increase thyroxine by 30 to 50%

and other sites say low thyroid function can be a miscarriage cause - and with my history I am naturally worried... so I asked the receptionist if the doctor could call me back to have a chat

Sigh

And welcome cheesysmile

Tiny, normal levels! That's good! Hopefully when you talk to your GP they'll agree to keep a close eye on them to see if you need to increase your dose.

And welcome, cheesey! Hopefully we will get a couple more from the September bus and loads from the October bus soon!

It is good, but all sites say people previously on thyroxine should up the level straight away, I hope I manage to convince the GP to do it... I'd feel better...

Ahrgh, i'm just nervous! very nervous...

4+5 today...
I hate early pregnancy... really really hate it...

BTW wispa hope you had some paracetamol and are feeling better...

Thanks for the welcome guys ... yes hope we get some others from the Sept / Oct bus to join us as well Wispa

Can I join please? Found out on Wednesday. Have a dd age 6 and had lots of failed fertility treatment so this is a massive surprise! Had preclampsia first time round so bit nervous. Anyone getting bad headaches already?

Hello new people!

Notthegoodwife - oh my word, you must be made up!

Well, I have registered at a surgery (moved a mere ten months ago, I'd get round to it eventually ) and have my new patients appointment on Monday where (assuming nothing goes horribly wrong this weekend) I'll explain I am very newly pregnant.

My FR tests are still showing a faint line (I can't stop testing! Anyone else?)

I have been smiling all day!

Welcome all newbies!

cheesysmile I have an early scan booked for 3 weeks' time at the local EPU. If you can self refer they may well offer you one. My notes from when I was discharged after my erpc in July said they should give me an early scan so you may well be entitled to one.

No real symptoms for me yet except a metallic taste and my boobs are starting to feel full/tingly. Anyone else got any clear symptoms? Last time I was vomming by the end of week 5 (which would give me a week or so to go still).

Sickness and tiredness both hit me like a brick wall today. Haven't actually been sick yet but just opening the fridge door makes my stomach turn. Still feeling really confused and a bit surprised, suppose I've got the best part of a year to get to grips with it though, if all goes well.

congrats to the newbies, notthegoodwife - bet you are delighted! I'm sure you'll be under consultant care with history of preclampsia. Headaches and migranes generally hit me around 18-20 weeks. Not looking forward to that!

Oh and sod the symptom spotting.... I'm already missing my gin!

Screw gin, I'm missing lemsip and decongestants!

Hi notthegoodwife, what an amazing surprise

My holiday is being spent mostly in bed today, hence on the iPad. I feel so bad for my husband, I think he's bored. When we went out for dinner tonight I just wasn't up for speaking much, but we ended up looking through a calendar to figure out potentially when we would tell people, when I can booked scans, etc. I hope to god we aren't jumping the gun and getting too attached too early!

The good thing about this cold is that when I have to be late for work on Monday due to doctors appt, at least I can give them an excuse and say I thought I needed antibiotics or something.

Well, my GP appointment was uneventful, he's referring me to the local hospital's maternity unit and I should get my appointment in the next month.

I've told a few people already, with the cautious proviso that it's early days and I don't want the world and his wife to know about it until I've had a scan or two. But I'm not good at keeping things to myself

Thanks blargl, I've got a docs appt Monday so think I might ask abt early scans there first and see what she says.

Sorry your poorly on holiday wispa, that sucks.

Not much to report here really, told dh last night and he's happy but says we need to wait for the 12 wk scan. I get his point, but im attached already, I know I am.

I also don't have many symptoms, had a very dry mouth for a few days and some mild cramping. I think boobs are a bit tingly at times. Am waiting for the sickness but have spent this week going out for dinner with friends and hubby as I know it will be the last time for a few months that I will want to if all goes well.

Hi, according to the calendar I'm four weeks and due June 5. I've had three miscarriages, so I'm in the "whatever" phase... Probably until June 5th. I cramp a lot in my early pregnancy. I'm never sure that is normal, since I've never had a normal pregnancy. It looks like others have had challenges too.

Not pregnant but just wanted to pop my head in and day hello! I was in your position a year ago and baby ds only just made the June thread being born in the first! Just wanted to say goodluck and here's to lovely June 2014 babies!

Teaandcake, so lovely to hear!

MAgirl, I'm sorry to hear about your mc, I hope this is a sticky one for you!

Hubby and I had to cut our holiday short and came home a day early, as I'm just miserable. Now lying in bed, watching catch up of agents of shield on 4od and surfing the net on the laptop.

I'm planning to test of cbd again tomorrow, fingers crossed for higher numbers

Hello everyone, can I tentatively join please?

Got my BFP this morning, due 6th June...I wasn't going to join an antenatal thread as it is my 5th PG after 3MC and 1 late loss, but was inspired by MAgirl upthread to do so.

Congratulations!

Teaandcake, my best friends baby son is a June 2013 baby. He is still quite teeny! So cute. I find it so strange with all the Christmas stuff just starting to come out - next Christmas we'll have big bouncy 6 month olds!

Hello to all the newbies.
Did a digital this morning and said 2-3 which matches being 5w exactly.
So still here.

Symptoms a bit extra tiredness and sense of smell a bit overdriving. And milk might be drying/slowing

But didn't have many symptoms with my successful pregnancy so not worrying too much.

I am just annoyed at the GP because of the thyroxine. I sound like a broken record!

We are hoping if all goes well to tell people around Christmas.

Woo! Pregnant 2-3 this morning, at 4+4, suits me fine. Now considering buying another CBD to check next week for 3+, or is that crazy? I'm not sure why, but maybe it's because I've not been well, but yesterday I got ridiculously worried about miscarriage.

I had loads of off non-cramping last night, could completely imagine it was stretching of some sort. No other symptoms, though.

Yey for the 2-3wks guys, im going to do another digi in a few days to see if I get that too. I never got there last time so hoping it will calm my nerves.

Welcome Norah and MA! I hope all works out for you both this time. Ive had the one mc but can't imagine how awful multiple ones wud be so I really feel for you.

I so hope everyone on here ends up with a gorgeous baby in June. Lets all be positive I think its the only way...

Oh random question when does sickness normally kick in? I'm a bit tired, dry mouth and the odd boob ache but generally fine.

Cheesy, according to the NHS it usually starts before 9 weeks. Normally around 6 weeks.. So you might have a couple weeks before it hits.

Not crazy, I was half thinking I may want to get the 3+ as well...

Stretching happens and way before I had a bump I also felt a certain heaviness in the womb, and I think there is extra blood flow in the area so it's normal...

ah and I'm another in the consultant care group... i have SO many reasons - previous history of mc, previous gestational diabetes, age over 40 (ON 40) and slightly high BMI... close to Bingo...

Cheesy, I never really got it, just a very light nausea and sensitiveness to smells
