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....

Moon I'm sure it can also depend on how much you drank just before and where your body is in 'processing' whatever is in your system (hormones, fluids etc.) - I'd see about getting a GP appointment and getting a blood test done if you are really worried, but maybe just try a digital and see.

I think bludger speaks sense, moon. In the meantime try not to worry too too much!

I hope not it's hard not to - I did a digital Saturday night and that said pregnant 1-2 but the fainter line today threw me a bit

Hello! I'm tentatively joining. Got my positive last week but after 4 days of bleeding at 10 dpo which wasn't very heavy but heavy enough for me to think it was an early period at first, so not 100% normal! I have an 18 month old already and weirdly a similar thing happened when I conceived him though I'm sure (hard to remember!) the bleeding was lighter... Anyway obsessive testing shows lines getting darker this week so fingers crossed... Should he due very end May/early June.

Moon I did a second test a week later to get the 2-3 weeks - you should be able to get a line on internet cheapies, albeit a faint one. I have about 10 internet cheapies left and I test daily to check up on my little pea pod.

Paranoid, me?

No line on cheapies and AF is due tomorrow

How long are you leaving them to 'develop'? Because the day I got my BFP I'd chucked my test in the bin because it was negative and 6 hours later fished it out again and there was a veeeeeery faint line (by faint I mean, I thought it was the mythical evaporation line).

Don't lose hope yet.

Moon, get to the doctor and have a blood test done, or wait until a week after you got pregnant 1-2 and do another digi. I have everything crossed for you that it's alright!

Keeping FX for you moon. When are you testing as different times of day can give different results. If you're still early days then fmu is prob best.

Welcome bizzle

Fx moon! So sorry for all the stress you're feeling right now

Ladies I've decided, insomnia isn't even a proper pregnancy symptom, it's just that it's impossible to turn off that buzzing baby-obsessed brain.... I long for sleep!

Thanks for your kind words. I'm crampy tonight and don't know why. I'm telling myself it's just because I ate corn at lunch, but I worry. Just cramps though, no blood. I'm probably making it worse by worrying. Went to volleyball and played two hours to stay positive. I have had morning sickness (nausea) a couple of times this week, so I hope these cramps are just implantation...

2-3 wks on CB digi this morning, im so chuffed. Makes me think things are going better this time Ive got one more left so might try for the 3+ in week.

I hope ur cramps are nothing to worry about MA I know its hard not to worry though.

More fingers crossed for you here, Moon. Can you get yourself another digital test today? I have no idea if it's true, but in my mind they're the most authoritative.

Gimmetea, my calculations make my due date 7th June too.... Which would be exactly 9 months after our wedding night!

MAgirl, cramps are totally normal at this stage. Something to do with all the new activity going on inside us. Hope you feel better today.

Morning all

I have one more clear blue digi as well so saving that for a week or so as well

Got positive 2-3 weeks yesterday am the day before so I'm pleased with that.

Just getting ready to go to the doctors now... Seeing a new doctor today... Don't even know his/her name! Wondering where my usual doctor is!

Aunt, have you just got married (or was it just a really good anniversary!? ) congratulations either way!

Still 2-3 weeks here.. I really shouldn't have looked at the levels in the test and the average levels of hcg, because although normal levels may still be

Feeling silly, because I've found other websites with lower averages now. I think I've made the mistake of believing everything on the internet.

Hope you GP appt goes well, gilly, hopefully it's a nice doc

Aunt, I'd also like to know if it was actual wedding or anniversary, though either is a lovely story. Are there any other newlyweds in here? H and I got married in June! Very little chance of getting an anniversary baby for me, though, my EDD (based on the nhs) is 3 June, and anniversary is 22nd

Should we have a list of EDD similar to he lists on the buses? Might be helpful to have one every now and then..

Moon, always test with the first morning urine. I never do tests during the day...

wispa are you offering to do the list?

I'm too busy! (busty as well which is what I just wrote)

My EDD according to the GP is 31st May but by my calcs is 1st June so I am staying here

Docs appointment went well! Lovely new doctor

She said my due date is 3rd June but my calculations say it's more like 9th!

I have my first midwife appt in 3 weeks on 23rd oct and she said I will get a letter confirming a first scan around that time too

She also did a medical certificate to give to my HR dept in work to say she recommends I come off 12 hour day shifts and also stop doing nightshifts for the whole pregnancy... Quite pleased with that as I hate shift work anyway!

So... That appt was an absolute success!

MAgirl, apparently cramping is a good sign, it is the uterus stretching, as is feeling like you are about to start your period, the heaviness is extra blood flow, apparently.

Moon, how are you? I don't know when you tested each time, you definitely get stronger results with FMU normally, the HCH is more concentrated.

When I have been worried about tests varying the EPU have done 48 hour bloods to check whether things were rising at the right level or not. I don't know if you have one nearby but if you are worried I'd be tempted to pop in. Thinking of you x

It is interesting that everyone's GP dates seem slightly out compared to their own estimates- makes me wonder if the doc will change mine tomorrow morning. If so DH will be very disappointed, as he is very keen on the idea that my due date is on the anniversary of D Day

Gilly, I think I need your gp

Good news Gilly! hooray!

Norah, I prefer when due dates don't relate to anything else... My first MC had a due date of Christmas Day 2010, so Christmas is always bitter sweet for me as I take a moment to think about what could have been

wispa DH and I got married in June, as well, but I spent my wedding night faceplanted on the bed, absolutely knackered.

Gilly Ooh, sounds like your new doctor is understanding and quite proactive, that's nice!

My cycles were around 35 days and I told her exactly when I ovulated and with those stats I always get the same answer - 9th June!

She used a little cardboard circle thing that she spun around with numbers on and came up with 3rd...!

I think her little "due date calculator toy" might be wrong to be honest but whatever!

Guess I'll know more in a few weeks when I see the midwife and have the scan... Exciting times I'm just hoping everything goes well for me and baby
