@ArjaD i just broke in tears 🤦🏻‍♀️
I think i'm obsessing so much that myself is playing tricks on me making me believe i have pregnancy symptoms... honestly! What is wrong with me? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

NicoleR14 · 17/04/2020 12:05

@jessmary94 I'm not hopeful but who knows 😂! @sungirl11 I have done the same thing for weeks now I had convinced myself I was and that I was being crazy I thinking I wasn't but I highly doubt I am I hope for you you are and you get your bfp!

@ArjaD I have a little bit of a bump, slowly but surely growing! I always feel like its massive at night time too lol

My due date is calculated to be October 3rd!

How have your symptoms been so far @ArjaD and @dizzy85 ? Mines mostly gone now, besides tiredness, sore boobs and feeling light headed.

@NicoleR14 good luck, I really hope you get some answers soon, fingers crossed for you.

And good luck to everyone testing soon, I'm terrible at keeping up with all these new names lol But I have my fingers crossed for you all in this ttc journey!

Thack19 · 17/04/2020 12:13

@Sungirl11 I’ve been doing that too, last month I was convinced, I felt sick around the same time every day for a few days, until AF arrived 🙄 I’m keeping my fingers super crossed for you 🤞🏻

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 12:38

@Sungirl11 aw sorry 😢😢 it's ok to cry! It's such a stressy time, it will do the body good to release it all!
I've got everything crossed for everyone, this may be a magical month ❤️✨🦄

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 12:40

@Nmew just some dull cramping now, and dizziness. My sore boobs have gone but I expect that pain to come back with a vengeance. Apparently you pop a bump quicker with your second so I better get some stretchy jeans in. Makes sense, I guess your muscles would be weakened from the first time.

Donnat89 · 17/04/2020 12:52

@NicoleR14 good luck with the tests I have so much hope for you you ! Xx

dizzy85 · 17/04/2020 13:07

@Nmew I've still got dull cramps going on in my pelvis and lower back and thighs my thighs are actually quite painful I've had to put a hot water bottle on them, and when I went to the toilet I just had some pink spotting when I wiped so now I'm filled with anxiety, I don't know what's normal or what's not. Have you had any spotting at all since being pregnant?

Bbutterfly · 17/04/2020 13:12

@Sungirl11 I know the feeling it's crazy isn't it my mind is always in overdrive non existent symptom spotting I really have tried to calm down over the last couple of months and haven't been so mental. Except this weekend since every month I get a peak result on opk cd19 it's been like clock work... yesterday was cd19 and only a semi dark line not a peak. Completely losing my shit this morning on cd20 still no peak. thinking what is wrong why isn't it the same as every other month am I in for a chance what is happening googling if anyone got bfp even though the lines weren't a peak honestly it's mental what our minds put us through sometimes. Half want to delete all my apps but know I'll be worse lol. I'm sorry you are feeling it but what you are explaining I really do feel like you are there this month! Everything crossed for you. @NicoleR14 how are you? Did your opks not show anything at all as I think I might be in the same boat as you now no idea what's going on. How you feeling now? @Runnergirl1 welcome to the nut house. 💗

Runnergirl1 · 17/04/2020 13:19

@Bbutterfly thank you. I don’t feel as crazy on here, it’s nice to have a lot of lovely women in the same boat. Nice to have people to talk to

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 13:37

@NicoleR14 are you ok Mrs? Xx

ArjaD · 17/04/2020 13:40

@dizzy85 I found this online : Approximately 20% of women report they experience spotting during their first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Bleeding that occurs early on in pregnancy is usually lighter in flow than a menstrual period. Also, the color often varies from pink to red to brown. Although it is easy to be concerned, don't panic.

Sungirl11 · 17/04/2020 13:44

@dizzy85 my friend is 6 weeks pregnant and had some bleeding a week ago and has had some brown discharge this week... everything is ok. They told her if bleeding persists or she feels unwell to call the midwife or Dr immediately. They also told her to write it all down and tell the midwife when phone appointments and to take her blood pressure. But she went to A&E in a bit of a panic moment and her baby looks fine and heart beating. Xx

Sungirl11 · 17/04/2020 13:47

And thanks girls for your words... i'm a rollercoaster and just had a bit of a panic moment. Will try to stay calm and count down hours till Monday (even thought just received tests and i'm sure i'll test again tomorrow as i have no will power 🙈)

NicoleR14 · 17/04/2020 13:48

@ArjaD I'm fine for the moment thanks lol my boobs are still sore currently waiting to take the test I'm trying to hold out as long as I can 🙈how are you doing? @dizzy85 are you okay? That can be quiet worrying have you called your gp/midwife yet?

OP posts:
Bbutterfly · 17/04/2020 13:54

@dizzy85 I have heard of this. I'm not going to tell you to not panic because your prob in full panic mode already. But as @ArjaD sent that screenshot. My friend had exactly the same thing and now she's 20 weeks all is fine xxx

dizzy85 · 17/04/2020 14:02

@ArjaD @Sungirl11 thanks it does help hearing things like that, it really messes with your head having previous mcs 🙄. I'm glad I've got you lot to talk me round ❤️

@NicoleR14 im not too bad Thankyou, I just need to have a word with my brain I think. I'm getting myself worried all the time. I've not called the drs or anyone yet I was gonna do that next week. Good luck for when you take your test xx

Hogrider · 17/04/2020 14:05

Happy Friday all! 😃

Can we just talk about hcg levels, isn't it so weird that so many pregnancy tests are for detecting 25 mIU/ml or above when hcg leaves are between 5-50 for week 3 onwards?! Only just done some reading on it and didn't know. Basically means most test can't detect pregnancy until at least a week after first day of missing period.

dizzy85 · 17/04/2020 14:06

@Bbutterfly Thankyou too, I keep telling myself I'm gonna chill out then the slightest thing gets me all in a panic. It's definitely from having the previous mcs as my first pregnancy I was so chilled and happy and not worried at all..before it went wrong. I'm gonna have to sort my head out coz I can't do 9months of worrying. Hope your doing ok? Xx

shelly10111 · 17/04/2020 14:08

@Hogrider so there's a good explanation really ... anything under 20 isn't a viable pregnancy as such, my chemicals have only ever reached 17 and 19 - this is now the reason I don't take frers as they take a worrying low level of hcg which would just be a fertilised egg and I've had a lot of heartbreak on them, it is best to take a standard test at least as chemicals don't usually get very high xx

NicoleR14 · 17/04/2020 14:11

I think I'm joining you ladies this month.. I got a faint bfp the line is there and it's pink I'm panicking..
