Hi all :) congratulations to everyone :)

I got my first ever BFP pregnancy #1 last Tuesday at 13 DPO. I think I'm around 4 weeks + 1 now. I'm feeling anxious every waking second but trying to stay relaxed and trust my body knows what to do!! Grin the midwife has my details and will be in touch in the next few weeks to sort everything out. In terms of symptoms, I wouldn't of know if I hadn't missed my period! I'm still feeling pretty normal apart from not being able to drink coffee and mild on and off cramping. No sickness yet so hoping that stays away. Hopefully we can all keep in touch over the next few months :)

Xx

@WestyNottingham yes I'm on 2x 200mg progesterone twice a day which does seem a lot and I think I'll have to stay on them for a while now, have your clinic confirmed your early scan? I'll find out on Tuesday when I can go in

I don't feel like I have any symptoms, boobs are normal, I'm waking in the night with vivid dreams but during the day I just feel like it's the same as before, does worrying its not real ever go away 😂

I got my bfp yesterday and have tested again this morning. How many positive tests did you do?!!

My due date estimate is 10th October.

Is the Facebook group private? If I join can anyone see I have? We haven’t told anyone yet!

Congratulations to all of you lovelies on your BFP's. I got my first BFP on Wednesday its our first pregnancy & says im due on 4th October and exactly 5 weeks today.

Feeling mega nervous & just waiting for something to go wrong as this has been such a long wanted dream.

Its come as a shock as I've been really poorly since 3rd Jan what feels like possibly severe acid reflux and had to cut out foods and have smaller meals in the evenings and a horrible chest pain going into my back, got put on the waiting list for an endoscopy and had blood tests which came back clear now I'm unsure if this was just pregnancy or is a seperate thing!

The symptoms seem to only flare up when I eat but I'm worried as my bmi is high and my January goal was to focus on losing weight to give baby dust & baby's health the best chance and I've lost 10.5lb this month then what do you know it the first month I focus on my weight loss and not think about baby making I'm pregnant.. Just can't help but feel anxious and guilty as I know im a high risk.

Sorry for the essay! X

@Grace2020 congratulations on your positive and also your weight loss this month 😊 this is our first pregnancy too, we're due 12th October. I've not felt great this month, I've felt sick with bloating but I've just put that down to very early pregnancy symptoms. Monday/ Tuesday last week I felt awful!
Definitely don't feel guilty, sounds like you're doing everything you possibly can which had shown this month with your amazing weight loss. Keep doing as you're doing xx

LexiM it's secret and private, so nobody can find it by searching and facebook doesn't tell anyone that you're in it. I was a bit nervous about joining my August 17 baby bus for the same reason but it was totally secret and has been lovely.
