Pregnancy buddies due mid Feb 2018.

[LeannieRVN]

I just got my BFP on the 9th June, and I'm calculated due 18th Feb 2018. Anyone else with similar dates out there who'd like to share the ride?
Current symptoms are tender, larger boobs and mild, intermittent 'cramps" In my left abdomen (more like a poke than a cramp!).

It's nice to know other people are going through the same thing. Everyone tells me it'll hopefully ease off by second trimester so fingers crossed! I've just had my first puke of the day

That doesn't sound pleasant! Hopefully you'll all feel better soon. I had one morning feeling super sick but since then nothing so I'm hoping I've avoided it. The midwife says if I don't have any by now I shouldn't get it at all

You're so lucky! I started by having a couple of weeks of just the nausea and over time it's got worse! I went from puking once a week to three times a day! Hoping I'll feel better soon!

Early viability scan today at 5pm. So nervous. I'm at work but I can't think about anything else.

Good luck @LorelaiVictoriaGilmore! The waiting must suck! I'm glad mine is at 9am next week. Sending lots of hope your way

Thanks cakesandphotos. Soooo much better to have it at the beginning of the day - today is feeling like the longest day in the history of time. I am spending my time at work googling different routes to the scan... excellent use of time!

@LeannieRVN yes that was us, we sat down & waited in the waiting room. Hoping things will get sorted for you and you will be back on he wagon soon. It can be a shit journey as we've endured but once we get our babies it will all fade into the backgrounds ❤️

@RockieValentine yes I got a few photos. I'll attach. Sorry only just caught up on this thread so bit behind. I measured 9 weeks exactly on attached photo. It wasn't the best photo she took but you can make out the head & arm an leg buds vaguely lol?!

I'm 10+4 today. I have my dating scan at 13 weeks as they are taken a bit later here. Still feels an age to wait An hoping it's still all okay in there 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm still wretching every morning but not been physically sick still.

@sadie I had bit of issue with constipation at about 8 weeks so checked at my booking in appointment with MW. She said Laxilose is safe in pregnancy. I got it from Tesco chemist just from the counter. It was about £3 and did the trick! Had no issues since. So maybe try that if your still having issues

Xx

Hope everything is ok @LorelaiVictoriaGilmore!

Thanks cakesandphotos - all good! Measuring 7+5 and heartbeat pounding away. I think the sonographer could tell that I was about to pass out from stress as she said 'now you can breathe'!

@cakesandphotos I'm with you with the rabbit droppings, it's driving me crazy! I literally haven't been properly since I found out I was pregnant...my cramps are less often now I'm approaching 10 weeks but still feeling like a zombie x

Anna2006 fab picture - how exciting 😀. Brought a smile to my face, I can't wait for my scan now.

I bought some lactulose the other day from boots. Brilliant stuff.

I'm 11 weeks now and feeling huge. I was about a size 16 when I fell pregnant and my tummy is now so bloated and already quite big. Me and my mum were checking out maternity wear to tonight as my usual clothes are all too tight. Anyone else bought anything yet?

I'm too scared to buy anything though as my first scan isn't until the 31st July (gutted it's so late) 😞 - I don't want to June anything.

I'm exactly the same @sadie2017

I have a private cab booked in for tomorrow morning, I'll be 10 weeks 5 days, if all is well, I'm going straight out after to buy some clothes that actually fit hehe! I've worn the same outfit for about a week now, wishing I could wear my pyjamas to work haha!
Xxx

*scan not cab haha

I bought a new dress to wear to a wedding next weekend. I'm going to have to try it on tomorrow to make sure it still fits. I can't believe how round my tummy is! I'm only 8 weeks along! I'll be getting out my old maternity clothes before long.

I'm already feeling limited by usual wardrobe so have asked hubby to get all my maternity stuff out of the loft today. And I'm only 8 weeks tmrw. Though partly cause I feel so sick so don't want anything right on my tummy, and partly cause there is already a bump coming. Looking forward to the 12 weeks when I can start to wear al my maternity stuff and don't have to try and hide it! I'm away the week before that so might just go with not caring that week too, as will only see family who know, and strangers, so don't need to hide it from people I know and don't want to tell!!

I haven't bought any maternity wear yet. I'm hoping it will be a while before I have to although things are getting a bit tight like work skirts. Will think about things more after the 13 week scan. Mine is on 1st August. When is everyone else dating scan if they've had there's through? We get ours literally few days after booking appt at 8 weeks but I know areas do it different.

What cycle of TTC were you all on when you fell? Your convinced at such a young age it's a walk in the park & for majority it really isn't..it's a ball ache!

First pregnancy we fell cycle 1. MC that though at 13 weeks.

Second pregnancy (this one) fell cycle 6 post miscarriage. Although I had to wait first cycle out & not ttc so technically I waited 7 cycles. It was shit after falling first time! Still we got there in the end!

My first scan is the 8th August. Sooo far away. Thankfully DD is in nursery that morning so I wont have to worry about childcare.

Anna - I have no idea about cycles (is that not IVF related?)

It took about a year and half to get pregnant the first time (miscarried around 10 weeks) and then 3 months later I became pregnant with DD. It's taken about 8 months of trying not very hard to get pregnant this third time.

Hi ladies.

I'm 9 weeks 6 days with my first baby. I'm due around Valentine's day been trying over 2 years and finally conceived through our first round of IVF.

I have my next scan on 26th July and very excited to see the baby again.

I am 7.6 weeks and so over the tiredness! Bloating and farting a lot has been the joys of this week but no major complaints after a miscarriage last year at 10.5 weeks all I want to do is get to my 12 week scan. Early scan at 7 weeks was good and amazing to see a heartbeat but still nervous.

Thanks for the laxatives tips as well. Going to invest this afternoon and hopefully get everything moving again!

It has been so reassuring reading this thread this morning. Thank you all for sharing.

I'm 10 weeks 6 but had a private scan yesterday which measured at 11w 2days ... all starting to get very real now...

Oh wow @ poppylou27 brilliant scan photo. I'm 10+6 today 😄 Exciting to be measuring a few days ahead. What does that make your due date now?

Mines 5th Feb I believe but may change at my dating scan at 13 weeks.

@Anna2006 thank you! My due date was the 4th Feb but has now changed to the 1st Feb lol, it's creeping ever closer hehee
Xxx

Lovely to see some great scan pics. I won't share mine as it was so early it was just blobs!

Hi,

Currently 10+2 with my first, had my booking in a week ago and dating scan is on 31st August - estimated due on 10/2/18.
Starting to all feel real now, though we still haven't told anyone yet!

Few aches and pains, I look constantly like I've just had a big meal at the minute! Have been told my iron levels are a little low, which is a bit odd as I've been taking a supplement with iron (and was giving blood until Feb with no iron issues!), but nothing of major concern yet (touch wood).

Hope everything is going smoothly for you all!
