Hi everyone! I can't find a May 2020 group yet. Most of you don't even know you're expecting yet. I'm due May 1st and got my bfp on 9 dpo. So I'm only 3 weeks 3 days. I feel like I may be lonely in here for a little while.
Looking forward to being joined by other mummies to be :)
This is my 3rd pregnancy. 1st was 7 years ago and I have a 7 year old son. 2nd was 5 years ago which ended in a m/c feeling positive for my rainbow.

Thank you everyone ❤️❤️

I don't know how to tell hubby yet, he's due home at 4. So I better get thinking 😂

@Mrsbee I had bought a job lot online. Like a bunch of 50 of those thin one like they use at the Drs. Just the cheapo ones :)

@kittenmittens1 twins holy moly... congratulations. Twins was a fear of mine and OH I don't think I'm the type of person built to raise twins. Wish you all the luck x

Wow kittenmittens1! What a bombshell 😂 can't wait to hear about his reaction, massive congrats to you 💐

I was at the diabetic pregnancy clinic yesterday and they've booked my first scan for Monday morning, in so nervous. By my dates I'll be 7+2 then. Also I feel soooooo sick!

1stbabs · 10/09/2019 17:03

Massive congratulations Kittenmittens!! How exciting ☺️

I've also been referred by my doctor to the EPU for a scan tomorrow morning, due to pains I've been having. Feeling very anxious and wondering what they will even be able to see as I'm so early. I'll be 5 + 1 tomorrow.

TummyTurtle · 10/09/2019 17:04

@KittenMittens1 how has your DH taken it? How did you tell him in the end?

Lifesforlivingandloving · 10/09/2019 17:05

I had an early scan today as my doctor referred me to the EPU as I've had some light spotting and dull aches in my groin since Friday .
We got to see the little baby's heart beating today it was so amazing x indescribable ❤️
Such a relief as I was thinking all sorts and so was so worried
I thought I was 6+4 but they think more like 5+2 but I know that could change again when I have the 12 week scan 😊 x

Congratulations! Wow ! Twins ! How amazing !! X

KittenMittens1 · 10/09/2019 17:10

Hi all,

Thanks for asking hubby took it hilariously, said oh no, we need a bigger car! 😂 Then cried haha.

We're going tonight to tell the in laws too. Didn't really want to this early but we just can't contain it any longer

Lifesforlivingandloving · 10/09/2019 17:18

@KittenMittens1
Awwww amazing x

TummyTurtle · 10/09/2019 17:42

@KittenMittens1 aww, lovely Smile

LuckyA · 10/09/2019 17:50

@KittenMittens1 What fabulous news! Many congratulations and wish you a happy and healthy 9 months ahead! x

AmIseeingRight · 10/09/2019 17:59

@KittenMittens1 congratulations "you wait ages for one and the two come along at the same time" 🤣🤣🤣 so exciting!

As part of appointment consultant sent me to the EPAU for a scan today @ 6+3 and saw little bean, and heart beating away, 🥰 simply amazing.

Skiaddicted · 10/09/2019 18:33

@AmIseeingRight amazing news for you, first time seeing a heart beat is unbelievable 😊

@KittenMittens1 hope telling the in laws goes well

May2311 · 10/09/2019 18:41

@AmIseeingRight aw how lovely! I bet it was the most special thing ever hearing the heartbeat 💗

I have my first midwife appointment tomorrow. Still surprised at how quick it is. It's a 3hour appointment- apparently there is a group session first. Not sure what to expect from that but hopefully I will get loads of information as i love swotting up on everything to do with babies 😂💕

FirstTimeMama91 · 10/09/2019 20:34

Amazing news @KittenMittens1 and @AmIseeingRight 😍😍

I can't wait for my scan on Friday. I'm so nervous 😓

november90 · 10/09/2019 21:29

@KittenMittens1 oh my goodness, twins! Wow! That's such a wonderful surprise! Two little buddies growing up together, it will be so lovely to see!
I bet you couldn't believe your ears when they told you 🙈💗 xx

november90 · 10/09/2019 21:31

I'm still feeling a bit anxious because I'm symptomless... I'm just under 5 weeks and I know it can be normal to not feel anything at this stage... but still. I guess I'm so shocked I'm pregnant, I still don't believe it! I just want to feel it if that makes sense!
I had some aching on my left ovary side today so hopefully that's normal.
I hope everyone is well and happy xx

november90 · 10/09/2019 21:34

Oh I've just remembered something else... I am really struggling to go to the toilet! Anyone else in the same boat? Sorry if this is tmi! But it's awful! 🙈😂

momo20 · 10/09/2019 22:11

Ah I've also had the same aching on my left side! I've been going crazy with worry that it might be something a bit more serious so I've booked myself in for an early private scan next week.

This is the problem with googling all the symptoms, just makes you worry a lot!

flossy12 · 10/09/2019 23:21

@november90 hey sweetie we're similar gestation I think! I'm 4+5 and have next to no symptoms at all 😅 it does make you think it isn't really happening but your right it is normal for some people to have no symptoms at this stage ☺️💞

flossy12 · 11/09/2019 00:19

What gestation will everyone be when they have their booking app? I'll be 11 weeks and it feels like such a wait 😫

May2311 · 11/09/2019 06:16

@flossy12 I have midwife appointment today but I don't think that's my "booking" appointment. It is a group session and then I have individual appointment with midwife after where they will do basic obs. I'm 6week + 4. I then have another appointment in 2 weeks time which I believe is the booking appointment. So I'll be 8 weeks + 3 by then. 11 weeks does seem quite late - that means they will only have a week to book you in for first scan. Unless they book that in before booking appt. I wouldn't worry too much about it though as different parts of the country seem to do it differently. 😊

May2311 · 11/09/2019 06:19

@flossy12 sorry! Forgot to say I don't know when I conceived so at the moment I am just going by last period! So I know I won't actually be 6+ weeks when I finally get to my scan. X

Skiaddicted · 11/09/2019 06:30

@flossy12, what is your EDD i think we might have similar dates

flossy12 · 11/09/2019 07:10

@May2311 Yeah I'm in yorkshire, going to ring them tomorrow ☺️ I'm going by my LMP aswell ☺️

@Skiaddicted I'm due 14th May 2020 😁 that's according to my LMP

Skiaddicted · 11/09/2019 07:24

@flossy12 Im the day after on LMP
