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 Grin only 1 year apart. Let the crazy times commence!

Anyone else this early in pregnancy and due in May 2017?

Great news shiperssss
Reassuring to see so many pg with dc3 (and 4!) - at least on mn I feel relatively normal whereas in RL don't know many that would even contemplate more than two.

Great news on the scan shippers

I know what you mean mild, I made a group of mum friends with DD1 and most of us have now had second DCs, but they all think I'm crazy when I talk about having number 3!

Hello! Can I join please? Found out on Saturday. I'm four weeks, due 6th may. Still in the holy cow how am I going to do this phase! It's my first baby. Trying not to get over excited until I know everything is ok.

Good news on the scan shippers, an early scan can be so reassuring. I hate the thought of having to wait to 12 weeks! Hi Rabbity, congratulations of ypur bfp!

Did another test last night which was much less ambiguous! Planning a trip to the GP surgery today to see if I can just book in with midwife or if I need an appointment. Great news with your scan Shipperssss. Extra scans nice, but I'm sure can sometimes cause a bit of extra anxiety too!

When should I register with a midwife? I was going to self refer online rather than going to the GP.

rabbity I've already self-referred to the case loading midwife team I know I want to be with, as I know that, all being well, I'll want a home birth. I've got my booking in appointment (in the luxury of my own home no less!) on the 6th October.

Anyone else horribly spotty? I remember this as an unpleasant symptom last time around Angry

Excellent news on the scan shippers.

Gin nice one, I would have had to reorder the list if you hadn't done it!

Feel properly sick today, I think before it was a mixture of mild nausea, nerves and excitement but now it's definitely just pregnancy I think.

I've Googled maternity clothes Blush (why?)

It's varies from region to region but unless you've got any other health problems or issues you want to discuss with the GP then self referral is fine.
