Hi
I just found out at the weekend that I'm pregnant, this will be no. 2. Had no idea how far gone I was as I had just had AF 7th Aug but after a very early scan this morning it looks like I've conceived since then...very surprised as HPT is seriously strong and I got 5 +ve OPK's last week which by the scan I would have only just conceived at that point.
Very much a waiting game at the moment and back in 2 weeks for another scan. If I am indeed only 3 weeks then I have pretty much the same due date as I had for my DD 
only 1 year apart. Let the crazy times commence!
Anyone else this early in pregnancy and due in May 2017?

Hi all, can I join?
I got a very faint bfp on Friday and it has begun to get a lot stronger so starting to believe i'm really pregnant.
I'm 36 and this is my first every pregnancy, we have been trying for 7 months.
I'm still in shock, I was only testing to show DH I could drink this BH.
Edd is the 7th May. I have tempted so know my ov date and I'm 4+2. Still very early but trying to get my head round what I now can and cannot do 
Looking forward to traveling this journey with you all and getting advice from you knowledgeable lot

tea & ghost no real reason for the worry, mainly because of the worry over dates. I'm so worried there isn't going to be anything there 
driving myself totally insane. At least in 24 hours time I will know what's happening either way.
Hi and congratulations iCoCo and girl
With my first I self referred through my GP surgery and seen my midwife around 7-8 weeks. Just depends what the process is within your area

Congrats to all the newbies! Welcome aboard!!
So many of us already.
Does anyone else have severe bloating? My tummy looks like it's 4 months pg already, it's usually fairly flat, but this is ridiculous at only 5 weeks 
if anyone has any tips please let me know

tea umm, hard to be vague, but put it this way, I have to handle drugs including cytotoxics and the like. Like you I can try my best to limit the risk myself but it's going to be v hard. Hence the doctors appt tomorrow just for some advice really. If need be I will have to tell work although I really don't want to having not told my parents yet. It's a catch 22 really.
shippers oh don't be disheartened, they won't see an awful lot and a heartbeat can only be detected at best 6+ weeks. I think we all worry that there won't be anything there and all our positive tests and symptoms have been a fragment of our imagination! You'll be fine
Welcome newbies!

Yes to the bloating, very tempted to get some maternity clothes out!
Glad you're appointment went well tea, I rang my GP to get referred to the midwife but told I need an appointment but none available for 3 weeks 
. Persuaded the receptionist to give me a telephone consultation instead which is for tomorrow.
Good luck for tomorrow shippers
