11dpo, 6 long months of trying and me and DP can definitely see a 2nd line there....

Congratulations

Lovely! I'm sitting with my 6 day old DD and I still remember the amazing feeling of that first positive test!

Congratulations

Thank you everyone xx
Awww that's lovely bangbang, how lovely, congratulations xx

Congratulations. I had DS2 at 40 and he is wonderful and amazing and even though I was incredibly anxious the whole pregnancy due to recurrent miscarriage, it actually was totally problem free.

Thank you SleepFree, and congratulations on your DS. I'm naturally anxious so will probably have 8mths of worry ahead but will try and enjoy it xx

It is worrying at first, I think I really started to enjoy my pregnancy around the 5 month mark, started to worry less. I think I was more reassured when I could really strongly feel his kicks. It flies by so quickly, like you said, just try to enjoy it and go with it. Really happy for you! 😊 xx

User don't bank on feeling anxious all the way through!

I felt terrible the first few weeks - every time I went to the loo I was convinced I'd be bleeding. Then at six weeks actually did bleed which was awful.

Then something weird happened around seven weeks in - the anxiety I've had for years (as in, had therapy, CBT etc level) just totally dried up and I've felt completely fine since including postnatally. In fact, it's been the happiest few months of my life - so I hope you find the same.

Thank you WinterRose and BangBang, that's reassuring xx
We're going to book a private scan and NIPT tests for end of next months (11wks pregnant) so hopefully I'll be able to relax a bit more after that. I just feel so much pressure and responsibility to keep this little bean safe and can't stop crying which I presume is the hormones! Lol!

Ha ha, yeah, the non stop crying! That still hasn't stopped for me! 😂 It does feel like huge responsibility but just take it easy on yourself. I wish I relaxed a bit more but it's easier said than done. Bet you are looking so forward to the scan and like you said hopefully you'll relax a little once you've had that. Take care xx

Found one more IC we hadn't used! Lol!
I'm going to treat myself to a digital at the end of the week and then I really must stop testing and let it sink in!
