Oh my goodness, just seen where my post is Blush how insensitive! I didn't read the previous post as I was in a hurry and just marking my place on the thread.. so sorry to hear that magrat x

KittyVonCatsington · 07/09/2014 08:20

Hi and welcome GettheRed, Turqoise, Sunshine and 2pretend very exciting to get some more BFPs Grin

Justyouwaitandsee · 07/09/2014 08:21

Hi everyone. Very sorry to read your update mcgrat Flowers

I am now 5wks+6. All this week I have woken feeling a bit nauseous and quite tired.

Last night I had a bit of a fright as I woke up at 3am with a persistent twisting pain in my lower right pelvis. The pain was making me feel sick. It lasted for about an hour before subsiding. But went right through to my lower back and gave me almost like a numb feeling in my bum and down my leg. As it finally eased off, I wondered if it was trapped gas or something but it was quite scary. My DH was brilliant and had no issue with me waking him up for support. I feel fine again this morning but think I might call the doctors tomorrow and see if I can get my appt brought forward.

HeyMicky · 07/09/2014 08:22

Morning all! My BFP turned up this morning, after a false negative last weekend. Regretting the wine yesterday Wink

This is DC2 for me

Do we have an EDD list? I'm due 10 May

GetTheRedOut · 07/09/2014 08:24

Due date on my phone app is 2nd May but the doctor said 4th. Both using LMP so no idea how they've come up different...

SmileyScooby · 07/09/2014 08:45

Morning all, am very sorry to hear that Ma saw your post on the sept bus! Am thinking of you and sending lots of virtual hugs x

Have woken up this morning with a sharp pain which feels like is just below my left rib, hopefully I've just slept awkwardly and it's nothing horrible.
Is anyone else as paranoid as me and still wearing a pad just incase something happens....please tell me I'm not the only weirdo!!

2preteendramaqueens · 07/09/2014 08:46

Me and the do have now decided that we should sleep in different rooms in August from now on as all 3dc have the same due date Smile

Turquoisetamborine · 07/09/2014 08:46

Hi everyone. My due date is 15th May but I'll be having a elective section due to a unicornate uterus so not sure how much earlier it will be. Anyone know?

No way am I going through labour again for three days only to have a section at the end of it!

Turquoisetamborine · 07/09/2014 08:48

Smiley I've had sharp pains when I sneeze or move around in bed. I don't know why maybe the ligaments softening. I don't think it's anything to worry about.

justjodie92 · 07/09/2014 08:54

Please help.
I've just been to the toilet, and when I wiped it was faint pink. Not bright red, but pink.
I'm so scared and in tears. Please tell me this doesn't necessarily mean the worst?
This is my first IVF pregnancy

2preteendramaqueens · 07/09/2014 09:06

Sorry hear that justjodie iv never had ivf so I don't know if it's normal but hopefully someone will be along soon Thanks thinking of you x

Justyouwaitandsee · 07/09/2014 09:07

Hi justjodie this doesn't mean the worst! Read back a few posts. Someone mentions that bleeding is more common in IVF pregnancies. I am not an expert but that post might give you some reassurance!

Justyouwaitandsee · 07/09/2014 09:15

It's turquoise who posted about IVF pregnancies, bleeding and pink cm.

Anyone else had twisting pains like I described above?

justjodie92 · 07/09/2014 09:20

Thank you
I rang the IVF clinic who said not to worry, that spotting is very common. She said to have an easy day today, and to call again tomorrow if the bleeding has continued.

CockBollocks · 07/09/2014 09:22

turqouise c'sections are done at 39 wks in my area, think its the same everywhere.

Turquoisetamborine · 07/09/2014 09:27

Thanks Cock, make me 8th may then for EDD.

Jodie, you don't have to worry about a bit of pink. I spoke to my doctor on Friday night and he said pink will be one drop of blood mixed with cm. Are you on cyclogest? He said that can irritate the cervix too. Change to Back door insertion if you aren't already.
Do you go for bloods this week?

HeyMicky · 07/09/2014 09:30

Thanks Kitty! There's loads of us!

Thepurplegiraffe · 07/09/2014 09:34

Hi all can I join? I got my bfp this morning after a bfn yesterday. My edd is somewhere around the 15th May though I'm pretty sure the doctor will estimate later.

I am 36 and this is my second pregnancy, I currently have a dd who is nearly 11 months old. We had been trying for a couple of months so it has happened pretty quickly, just hope it sticks!

SmileyScooby · 07/09/2014 09:40

justjodie fingers crossed it stops but atleast clinic has said not to worry

waitandsee I haven't experienced what you described, fingers crossed doesn't come back as sounded painful! you are further along than me (am only 4+4)

turquoise thanks for that as this is first time etc I haven't a clue and I am a worry wart at the best of times!

Kitty thanks for the updates, lots of us already!!

So looks like I'm the only weirdo re wearing pads at the mo then!!

Threesoundslikealot · 07/09/2014 10:01

waitandsee, that sounds like sciatica to me - the numbness in particular. My best friend got it very badly in the first trimester. Hopefully it will ease off.

Welcome to more new people.

And a big hug to you, mcgrat.

dramaqueens, same here! Blush

Rockinghorse123 · 07/09/2014 10:04

Hi all can I join please? Got a v faint line on a cheap amazon test 3 days before AF is due.

According to NHS calculator would be due 21 May 2015.

This is Dc#2 and has very luckily happened for us on cycle #1 of TTC after 9 months of trying for DS so don't quite believe it's true yet. Trying not to get hopes up but might get a First Response test later to put my mind at rest!! Smile

piglet81 · 07/09/2014 10:15

Wow, look at that list! Welcome to everyone, and hugs and best wishes for those having a hard time.

It's a strange experience having a secret that only DH and I know... Feel really paranoid that people will guess (because I'm not drinking, etc) before we're ready to tell! Smile

TheDisillusionedAnarchist · 07/09/2014 10:18

Just Jodie- pink should be okay, I had pinkish, brownish goop around AF time and it has just gone. Only red is really concerning

I am feeling a bit more reassured after feeling really knackered yesterday and noticing more veins on my boobs but still loads of cramps so I am obsessively checking for blood (not wearing pads though)

Looks like May is going to be a busy birth month!
