Thought I’d start this as a follow up from the ‘TTC NOVEMBER 2021’ thread for everyone who got their BFPs! ☺️

The Facebook group has been officially set up! So send me a private message and I'll invite you to join.

The last group I was in was really invaluable so I would encourage you to come along! x

My cycles range usually between 27 and 35 days…. But I recently came off anti-depressants and any change in medication alters my cycle even MORE, sometimes I even skip a period entirely. So I’m desperately hoping that I ovulated really late this time, which would account for the mismatch in dates (and the fact I didn’t show as pregnant until last weekend).

Just seeing if the link works to the Facebook group!

@closingtime101
My cycles are irregular too, my last one was 39 days, and I ovulated on day 26 of my cycle this time, then got a bfp 2 weeks later x

closingtime101 · 13/12/2021 14:05

@twinklesss that’s reassuring to hear! Me ya hope for the best. Would love a little August baby :)

closingtime101 · 13/12/2021 14:05

Omg no idea where “me ya” came from. Sorry!!

Caslo · 13/12/2021 14:11

@TH22 Facebook group sounds like a great idea! I haven’t messaged you about it because I got rid of my Facebook a while back. Hopefully I can stay in touch with you all on here as our pregnancies progress x

twinklesss · 13/12/2021 15:14

@TH22 I will definitely join the group at some point, just having to keep this very private at the moment so I'd be too paranoid to be in a Facebook group 😂

chiatta · 13/12/2021 17:17

@TH22 thanks for doing the Facebook group :)

My tummy has been feeling sore today, sort of tender and heavy, not exactly cramps. It's making me nervous. Does anyone else have this?

closingtime101 · 13/12/2021 17:42

@chiatta I feel bloated literally all the time. Hoping that’s a good sign.

Cb31 · 13/12/2021 19:22

Thanks @mrsmw132, @MeatyRvita, @ajayelbee. It's reassuring to know that others are getting it. I've got my first call with the midwife tomorrow so can have a chat about it and then get it booked x

Hi all,

Huge congratulations to everyone - isn’t it exciting!

First time posting but I’m also due august 2022 (11th), so I’m 6wks today. Absolutely over the moon but it’s my first so also absolutely terrified as to what’s to come. Can’t wait to actually be able to tell people but don’t dare jinxing things in the meantime!

Had major cramps last week which are gone now, just left with incredibly sore boobs (!!), bloating and constipation (TMI).

Trying to not do too much googling as keep filling my brain with thoughts of MC or ectopic, just praying that we make it through first trimester so can relax somewhat… the days are just going so slowly!! I don’t know anyone else in the same boat so hoping to meet new people that can empathise!

twinklesss · 13/12/2021 21:09

Hi @Lumlalim ! I'm new to the group (and this app!) too. Congratulations! Is this your first? This is my second pregnancy and I'm trying not to overthink everything but it's so hard, I've been having mild cramps and very sore boobs too. And it's sooooo hard not to tell everyone! Im 4+4 going by ovulation date so still very early days.

Tonight I got a pain in my left inner thigh high up and it's as if I felt a pop, definitely in my leg and not my pelvis but since I had that I've been having pain in my hip and leg. In my first pregnancy I suffered with pelvic girdle pain and I'm sure it must be too early but it's definitely similar 😫 has anyone else had similar? x

chiatta · 14/12/2021 06:36

Hi @Lumlalim , I've added you to the calendar. There is also a Facebook group if you want to join, message @TH22

Hello, I was on the TTC November and December group and got my BFP yesterday 🤭
Looking forward to getting to know you all on the journey.
Xx

SantiagoSister · 14/12/2021 09:04

Hi @Cmacq32, so nice to see you over here, congratulations!

Caslo · 14/12/2021 11:14

@Leilei95 How are you doing? x

ajayelbee · 14/12/2021 11:15

Hi @Cmacq32 and @Lumlalim congratulations to you both on your BFP!

Cmacq32 · 14/12/2021 11:35

How is everyone feeling in general since they had their BFP?

Caslo · 14/12/2021 12:14

@Cmacq32 I've been alright, most days had a queasy feeling. Between 3-4 weeks pregnant I felt niggles in my uterus but that's mostly stopped now. Ultra sore boobs, tired constantly (nothing new there though - shift work and 2DS) and permanently bloated and constipated! Just want to get through to my scan on NYE when I'll be 7+4. I had a MC/blighted ovum in July at 6+6 so need all the reassurance I can get that it'll be okay. Roll on the morning sickness! How about you? x

Cmacq32 · 14/12/2021 12:36

@Caslo oh your super far on how exciting!
I can understand the need for reassurance, sorry about your previous baby news, it's such a tough time. I had an early scan with my DD also for similar reasons. I'm sure all will be amazing 💜

I'm feeling good, am 4 weeks so super early but feeling fatigue today but i went to gig last night and was late one followed by a 6am start with a 1 year old so enough to keep me tired regardless!

TianaC · 14/12/2021 13:43

I've got sore/bigger boobs, constipation, gas/bloating, feeling really tired, lots of CM, and I started to feel sick today (I'm 6 weeks tomorrow). It went after I ate some toast a while ago, but it did feel horrible and I noticed it was nausea, as I thought I'm hitting the point where it often kicks in.

I've also had mild twinges and cramps in my uterus.

I have the first midwife call tomorrow, need to get my 1st dose COVID vaccine as haven't had one before now (I work for the NHS so I'm being made to have one now).... but feeling it's best being pregnant.

Then we have our scan 2 weeks today, so just looking forward to making it to that and then knowing more and then I'll be able to feel even better/get confirmation of the positivity I'm feeling.

Sending you all lots of positive vibes! Flowers

Lumlalim · 14/12/2021 17:50

I self referred to my local maternity unit today - does anyone know what to expect from here on out?

Justkeepswimming20 · 14/12/2021 19:16
