September 2020 babies?

268 replies

EssJayyCee · 04/01/2020 21:32

I'd like to share my journey with some moms-to-be with a similar due date.

I think I'm due around 9th September 2020 but I've had no scans yet.

This will be my first baby after TTC for 17 months! With very irregular cycles. I was in the process of fertility appointments- my next one was to get medication to help so I feel very lucky!

I think I am around 4weeks+3 but I am taking a CB Digital in the morning to see what that says.

Looking forward to chatting to some of you lovely ladies!

Hi everyone, I’m currently about 4w+3 I think. Have really irregular periods! Also had a missed miscarriage in September last year, only found out at an early scan I booked privately Confused
I have so much anxiety this time around and it’s going to be THE longest wait until my 12 week scan which is in March Shock I’m thinking of booking an early scan again privately for about 8 weeks to see how things are going Smile
I also have a 4 year year old daughter, so I think the age gap is plentiful now Grin

@Nicbabyno2 hey and welcome! I totally feel same as u, the 12 week wait is sooo hard, I'm same as u also in that I had mmc in November so I understand it totally doesn't help with anxiety. I am waiting a letter from hospital now for early scan as gp knew I'd need one to settle me. Would ur gp request the same for u maybe?

No more testing now! I must put down the pee sticks as I've spent a small fortune.

I think I have lost our baby :(

I have had red spotting for a couple of days and my only symptom of tender boobs has disappeared.

Still getting positive tests but that still happens even after miscarrying.

I am trying to get an early scan with EPAU for the next couple of days... I am still hoping but I feel deep down our baby is gone.

Good luck on the rest of your journeys girls, I hope all of your fates are better than mine!

@Essjayycee, sorry you're going through a hard time right now, hopefully your little bean is still ok. My sil had bleeding in early pregnancy and had a healthy baby. If you can go to the a&e Dept of your hospital as soon as you can, and find out what's happening, for your peace of mind and safety. Wishing you all the best x

Chanel05 · 16/01/2020 08:05

@EssJayyCee hoping everything is okay for you. Would you be able to have a private scan if the epu aren't playing ball?

Thank you everyone.

I have managed to get an appointment with EPU tomorrow morning so I will know tomorrow what is going on.

My spotting is changing all the time one minute its pink watery blood, the next its brown discharge and tonight I have had dark red thick sort of discharge.

I have had a few twinges and pinches through out the day but still no cramps.

My fingers are crossed my baby is okay but deep down I know it's gone.

Thank you all!

I keep having positive moments but then the blood makes me all negative again.

My tender boobs came back towards lunch time today and this evening they look even bigger, nipples rounder and darker and they are covered in big blue veins.
I saw this as a good sign.. but then I have just read symptoms can carry on progressing even when you have lost the pregnancy so now I'm worried again.

I wish I could switch off from it all until my scan but it's just in my head all over! Sad

Just to update you all.

Things didn't go well, there was no baby in my womb and a pregnancy test at the hospital came back negative. I have been passing clots all day.

So I was right. Baby is gone.

Thank you for checking in on me.
Good luck with your journeys.

Congratulations to all you lovely ladies! I got my BFP on saturday and by my calculations i am 4 weeks today - due on 29th September.

Its my first so am feeling a whole bunch of emotions right now. Im in that place of wanting the time to go quickly so I can feel a bit safer and start sharing the news, but also wanting to enjoy every moment of this journey.

Im thinking of getting an early scan at 6/7 weeks so i can actually see something on a screen - the pregnancy tests still seem so surreal!!

Excited to share this journey with everyone! xx

Newyears2020 · 21/01/2020 11:32

@essjayycee So sorry to hear of your loss. Remember everything happens for a reason. Sending you hugs xxx

Sulkypatsy · 21/01/2020 12:56

@newyears2020

Welcome, and congratulations. Hope you're feeling well. I'm due on the 8th and very much wishing time would pass quicker too, it's so hard. I've an early scan tomorrow, super nervous

Newyears2020 · 21/01/2020 13:28

@Sulkypatsy exciting news about the early scan - enjoy seeing your little bean!

Did you book it privately? Xx
