December 21 Babies

[Rebsy1991]

Hey!

I know it will be very early for everyone. But I had a BFP this morning after chemicals the previous two months!

Estimated DD 5th December.. is anyone else due a december baby? xx

Hi everyone!

Welcome to all those who have recently received their BFP!

How's everyone feeling? I'm 6w 6daus and the nausea keeps coming in waves. I keep hoping it doesn't get any worse 🙈 I'm such a wimp with feeling ill!

Xx

Hello 👋

Congratulations to you all!

Can I please join too? I believe I am 5+3 and think I’m due 15 Dec. It’s an ivf baby so I should find out for sure at my 7 week scan.
This will be my first and only as I’m 41 in a few months. I doubt I could go through all that again if we managed to have a baby. Praying that this little one stays with us ❤️

Congratulations!! Mine is IVF too, 3rd one, and l said exactly the same thing the day before l did the test! Hope it will work too🙏

Oh hi all!

I’m either 4+5 or 5+4... due 15th/20th December. It’s DH and my first baby. I’m so excited! He’s bought some pregnancy books that he’s reading, bless him.

No real symptoms from me yet... some pelvic pressure, and maybe a bit of tiredness, but nothing else. I’ve read that your early symptoms can often be similar to your periods, and mine are pretty painless and I don’t get PMS, so I’m hoping that explains the lack of early symptoms...

Hi @Zooma3, that’s fantastic. Were all 3 of your pregnancies ivf babies?

@Goldilocks2528

Hi *@Zooma3*, that’s fantastic. Were all 3 of your pregnancies ivf babies?

Nope l only got pregnant on my last embryo transfer, first 2 transfers did not work. Is yours first transfer?

Hello, I'd like to join!

I already have two little boys, aged 5 and 2. Currently around 5 weeks with baby number 3, due date around 19th of December. We'd been trying for almost a year and I was contemplating skipping a month as didn't really want a December baby (I'm a December baby myself). But boy am I glad I changed my mind

No symptoms as of yet. Never had any in previous pregnancies either so, if it continues this way, I'll assume we could be having another boy!

Wishing you all happy healthy pregnancies.

I am sorry to right here as l cannot open a mew thread. I am 7 weeks pregnant and l got bleeding and really worried! Do not know if l can survive until the morning! It was not dark blood can it be miscarriage??

Hi @Zooma3

Is it light bleeding? It can be quite common in early pregnancy to bleed slightly. I think the most important thing though is try not to panic. If you have pains alongside or/and your really concerned I would recommend getting in touch with the midwives or GP. Hope your ok- try and relax and get some rest. Xxxx

Thank you so much!! I do not have a midwife yet called 111 and waiting for a specialist to call me back. It was light bleeding and have not bleed since then. Hoping its ok!! Trying every best of me to call down!!

Hi all!
Tentatively joining, so paranoid it's not real! 😅
Edd 15th-22nd Dec.
Excited but trying not to be as convinced something will go wrong 😬 xx

@Zooma3 how are you feeling? Have you managed to get a scan? I hope all is okay! Xx

@Rebsy1991 a bit calmer since l did not get any more bleeding. Waiting for GP's call hoping they would arrange sth and/or my IVF clinic. I had a scan a week ago and everything was perfect. Hoping the baby is still there, do not wanna think otherwise! Thanks soo much! I was so devastating last night l think l wanted to hear something positive from sb else even though my husband was trying to calm me down.

@Mamamoonbeam Hello! I recognise you from the conception board My edd is around that time too. Hope all goes well for you!

Hi 😊

I’m going to join but feel like I’m jinxing it as I don’t really believe it. I’m 4+1 with my second, with an EDD of... 26th December 😅

I really don’t feel pregnant at all 😂 I didn’t with my son either so counting down until we can get an early scan - is 7 weeks too early?! I had one at 8+2 but it feels like 4 weeks to wait is unreal 😂
I feel so anxious this time around I don’t know why, i think it’s because I’m so aware of what can go wrong. I’m so anxious about a missed miscarriage which I know is outta my control. I forgot how hard these first early weeks are!

@tuxedocat hey!! Congratulations 🥳 you were on the conception thread I was on I think 🙌🙌 lovely Boxing Day babe ❤️ I felt awful last week sickness and exhaustion but last few days sickness has eased which I'm relieved about but at the same time automatically worry about why it's eased 🙈 It's a constant worry the journey! Xxx

Welcome & congratulations to you all

I am feeling SO sick this morning. Glad I'm working from home because people would think I was being bone idle in the office while I try to concentrate on not being physically sick

We have a scan this week at 8 weeks and it feels like time has been moving so slowly since the positive test and I am wishing we had booked it for 7 weeks instead

@May2311 yes!! So lovely to see a familiar face ☺️❤️
I know right, Boxing Day!! Eek. I was induced with my first so I’m kinda hoping it might be the same as I was told likely I’d be induced about 37/38 next time which would shove us a little in front of Christmas 😂 what will be, will be!

So glad you’re feeling better, but you can’t win can you?! I remember this last time I had nothing and genuinely didn’t believe I was pregnant at all until we had 8 week scan. I don’t think I’ll believe it until then either - I’m even too scared to start the online referral to the midwife so I might give it a week 😂

@wakeupsunshinex hello! 👋🏻
Yay to edd buddy!
We were on a ttc break so I have no idea when I ovulated aside from obviously bfp and the one day dtd mid month. My cycles have lengthened since a chemical in November from 31/32 days to 35! So the dating scan will be interesting!
My line progression has been pretty strong too! So feeling hopeful and excited! :-D

@tuxedocat welcome! And congrats!!

I had booked a scan at 7+ 6 which is this Friday, but I had a bit of spotting so went for one last week 6+2 and you could see the little bean and a heart flicker! So 7 weeks wouldn’t be too early!

I too have hardly any symptoms! Guess we are the lucky one!

We have a Facebook group - if anyone would like to join just send me your name and description of profile picture so I can find and add you! Xx

@MamaMoonbeam lovely strong lines there!

Thanks @Rebsy1991 😊 ah amazing, I’m so glad you said that. It would be dead on 7 weeks and I just feel like I can’t quite believe it or relax into it until I know it’s real! 3 weeks seems easier than 4 😂
Yes so lucky to not have any symptoms, it just feels surreal. So lucky, but so surreal. I think I’m gonna order some tests to keep me convinced 😂

I think I saw this posted somewhere else on MN but wanted to share!
If anyone is as paranoid as me, it's a MC calculator and offers reassurance. You just have to put how far along you are and a couple of details for yourself;

I'm finding it reassuring 😊

@MamaMoonbeam Ah my cycles were way off after a chemical too. 28 days to 35 days. I've guess-timated my due date to be the 19th, very intrigued to find out how right or wrong I am!

@Rebsy1991 I've sent you a message for the Facebook group

@MamaMoonbeam thank you for this! 💕

@tuxedocat you're welcome! 😊
