I thought I’d start this thread now as I can’t see one yet! I got my bfp this weekend on a digital and estimate my due date to be 1st of July, but I have long cycles so I’m anticipating it changing at a dating scan. Anyone else with me for end of June or beginning of July 2018?

Thank you :) congrats @Enwi ! Smile

rhubarb86 · 25/10/2017 18:44

Congratulations! And thanks for the warm welcome. I still don't feel like this is real yet. I haven't done a clear blue test as really need to knuckle down and save money! I have one last boots cheapie to use which I'll do at the weekend just to make sure. I called my gp app who suggested an app next week which by my calculations will be over 5 weeks. I have had period pain like some back ache and cramps but very minor. I also had some brown discharge around the time period was due which I assume is normal? None since though. Hope everyone is ok.

Tip-toeing in....would like to join please :)
Had my bfp today, the day af was due so think due date would be around 6th July.
Have a little girl at the moment who has just turned 2 :)

Fascinating website with pictures of embryo development day by day

KateB2016 · 26/10/2017 08:18

@willieowinsbury cool website!

I'm 4 weeks and 3 days now and each day is dragging! Anyone else feeling like this? That 13 week mark seems a lifetime away. We're excited that it'll be Xmas time when we can tell people though :) cheap Xmas pressies all round haha x

Enwi · 26/10/2017 09:13

Oh yes dragging so much. I’m 5 +2 and I found out I was pregnant at 3+6. It feels like I’ve already waited a good few months Grin
I went to mothercare yesterday for a nose at pushchairs (not too crazy... i’m a childminder aswell as being pregnantGrin) and when I got there the doors were shut. A lady asked if I was here for the ‘event’ and I said I wasn’t. She hinted that if I was I could come in and shop and have a free goody bag.
I went in and listened to a few talks about car seats and pushchairs and then got handed about 500 flyers, a few freebies and some Danish pastries! I felt like a bit of a phoney as everyone else was atleast 35 weeks pregnant Confused

HarryPotterandtheSAHM · 26/10/2017 14:35

Ooh that website is really interesting, thanks for sharing! I’m 4+6 and it’s going so slowly.

Enwi those events are great! I went to one with my first pregnancy and got loads of goodies too. Also the Emma’s Diary website have vouchers for freebies from Boots, last time we got loads of nappies and wipes in little goody bags, and 4 tubes of nipple cream!

I just love looking at pushchairs so might have to go to a few more Grin

KateB2016 · 26/10/2017 15:57

I've literally just at lunch today collected two of those packs from boots from Emma's Diary! Haven't opened them yet as husband wants to do everything together 😍

ScienceGeekGirl · 26/10/2017 19:33

7:30 is totally reasonable time to get into bed isn’t? I feel exhausted.

Hello all the new guys and yay for those that had scans. Still 2 weeks till mine. Which feels like an age

ScienceGeekGirl · 26/10/2017 19:34

Oh No that was meant for the June thread. I’ve been spying on this thread as I’m due right near the end of June. Anyway hi!

Enwi · 26/10/2017 19:43

When’s your due date science? Mine is 26th June Smile

ScienceGeekGirl · 26/10/2017 19:56

28th

noimagination80 · 26/10/2017 20:54

Hey all, I hope everyone is doing well?

Af was due today, I've been cramping for the late 2weeks and keep expecting to be greeted by it every time I go to the bathroom.
I don't remember this much discomfort the first time round. @Winterfellismyhome have your cramps calmed down?

Winterfellismyhome · 26/10/2017 20:56

Hi @noimagination80 ive had hardly any cramps today. Had a really strong one yesterday though. Im exactly the same expecting to see blood when i wipe Confused

KateB2016 · 26/10/2017 21:05

My cramps have been quite light but similar to period cramps until today where they now seem to have migrated to my lower back! Each new thing is terrifying! X

noimagination80 · 26/10/2017 21:25

It's nice to know I'm not the only one a little anxious. I can't wait until the 12 week point, then I can start freaking out about the next 12 Grin.

Bluebirdsky · 26/10/2017 23:04

Good to know I am not alone in feeling like this, AF is due tomorrow and worrying that it is going to happen. I am feeling very bloated this evening but nothing else at the moment.

KateB2016 · 27/10/2017 08:13

Those of you who have already had pregnancies before, when did you start to show with your first? :) x

HarryPotterandtheSAHM · 27/10/2017 08:26

Kate, I didn’t show until after 20 weeks really, maybe by 26 you would guess I was pregnant and by 30 I had a proper bump. Everyone is different though and it depends on your body shape and how you’re carrying. I hated the ‘I’m pregnant’ - ‘well you don’t look it’ conversation so I’d quite like a cute bump earlier on this time!

Enwi · 27/10/2017 09:28

I’m so bloated I look about 20 weeks pregnant ☹️
I’m actually quite concerned people are going to guess I’m pregnant just because I’m so bloated!

Hulaballoo · 27/10/2017 15:49

Hi all can I join please? I tested super early and got a positive 10dpo... My cycles are a little irregular between 26-34 days... And I ovulated early on Cd 10/11 So I'm guessing my af was going to be Sunday... With all that in mind I think I'm due between 6th-8th July ... I'm 17dpo but guess I'm about 3w+5 😁 constantly poas over here... Haven't told DH yet! We had a mmc December, and I told him early then and he was a bit funny about it -think he'd rather know after I'm due so I'm waiting...But it's been an agonising week holding it in. Feeling positive with this pregnancy, tiredness kicked in today, tender boobs but not super sore... Holding out for Cb digi over the weekend, not sure if it'll pick up just yet? This will be Dc #3 we have two lovely DDs already 9,7 and there's a big age gap now! I keep poas ic daily just to cheer me up, crazy huh?! How's everyone doing?

Hulaballoo · 27/10/2017 15:56

This is today's poas... Do you think a Cb digi would pick it up yet? Really not sure how to calculate my weeks...

July 2018 Babies
Bluebirdsky · 27/10/2017 16:53

Not sure if this helps @Hulaballoo but I did a cb digi on Tuesday and got a positive and my AF is today. I am the opposite to you though and have a short cycle, usually 23-24 days so not sure if this makes a difference.

HarryPotterandtheSAHM · 27/10/2017 16:57

Hullaballo my test looked like that the day I got a 1-2 on a CB and was due AF (but with a 10 day LP). I have finally stopped POAS today at 5wks because my lines are the same colour as eachother. Now the next milestone is my booking appointment on the 13th!
