Hi ladies,

as I know there have been several early birds who had a BFP with due date in July, I thought I’d set up a thread here.

Age: 31 (in a week 😫)
Baby: #1
TTC: 1.5 cycles
BFP: 10dpo on 22.10.17
Due date according to OV: 04.07.2018

@18mnthsandcounting congrats! They just booked me in when I called them to let them know I got a BFP. I got an early scan last pregnancy too xx

Where’s everyone gone? I’m not getting any updates and keep checking in but nothing! Everyone ok? Have good weekends? Hullabaloo? Peanut86? Igh05??

Hi to all the new girls!!

@Becparks All good here I think. Yesterday was the first day I didn’t poas. 💪

Also had a fight with my husband, without going into too much detail and circumstances - he feels sexually neglected. I completely flipped and got so mad at him. He’s known for 5 days that I’m pregnant. 4 of these days he wasn’t even at home really. He knows I’m not feeling too well and am scared but instead of putting me/the baby first he’s being a selfish needy little child. I mean, am I being unreasonable? Is he in the right? Even thinking about it gets me so pissed off.....!!

Boobs are getting a bit tender. More in the evening than during the day. Not feeling sick anymore/yet. Only thing that really makes me notice something is different is my weird sleep. (Also had a 3 minute long dream about having a 4 some with 3 male models, I mean 😱🙈)

Haha @peanutty86 no wonder you’ve got nothing left for your poor hubster if you’re having 4 some dreams! 😬
They’re shits aren’t they - they don’t get it. I’m so moody atm keep snapping at oh. I say I’m tired and he says so am I! I’m like yeah but you’re not pregnant 🤰🏻 I’ve read out to him symptoms etc so many times now!!!
I’m sure it will all come good he doesn’t get it can’t see it and feels jealous already perhaps?
Meanwhile my oh is getting it like 3 times a day I am so horny lol

Becparks · 30/10/2017 13:17

P.s. I am soooo tired today (also not sleeping well and weird dreams) but today is like another level. I nearly lay on the floor in pret earlier and joe I’ve come home to bed for 10 mins before video conference. Wfh today but SO MUCH TO DO! 😳

lgh05 · 30/10/2017 13:20

Haha brilliant dream @Peanutty86! I don’t think you are being unreasonable being pissed of at that, I wouldn’t take that well either!

@Becparks weekend was good, but my DD has come down with a bad cold so I’ve been in her bed couples with the tiredness and insomnia this pregnancy has brought on it’s not a fabulous mix. Other than that it’s all good!

Hulaballoo · 30/10/2017 13:35

Helloooo, I'm about! I didn't poas Saturday 😁but it's my birthday today so I wanted to reassure myself as I went to bed with really sore boobs and woke up with only very mild soreness..
So I panicked..
I'm sure this will happen daily. I think I'm queasy now and again but then think it may just be in my head as sometimes I get queasy after milk or cereal etc... I'm a teacher and back to school today..
Urgh just don't feel like it. Just don't want to do anything. I've already said dh I'm not in the mood and I'm scared... He's ok with it and due to my last time understands. In all my pregnancies when I orgasm I get really strong uterine contractions and I'm convinced mmc had to do with lots of orgasms at the start... I'm sure it's not true for everyone but I had spotting last time after orgasm and after sex... So at the moment not horny but it usually rockets at 6 weeks.... Hoping not to cave in.... Haven't booked anything yet....I still think I'm only like 4+1? Could that be right? I can't work it out as my period cycles have varied...Confused

Peanutty86 · 30/10/2017 14:35

Haha that’s the thing- not horny at all when awake.
He’s just fucking needy all the time but now it’s my turn to put my needs first. I’m having his baby so he needs to step back for God’s sake. He’s so much like his mum...... (sorry, rant over!)

Happy Birthday @Hulaballoo!!!! Hope you’re having an amazing day!

Oh @Becparks I get that. I was tired at first but now I weirdly have lots of energy in the mornings. Since I’ve slept bad before I got my BFP I’ve turned into a morning person.

And I know this might be too much TMI, apart from trumpeting ‘all night long’ according to husband, my bowel movement aka morning s**t seems to be making its appearance about two hours early every day. Good for me, it’s before work. Sometimes little one follows at work but I really can’t complain about being constipated 😂 anyone else has this symptom?

lgh05 · 30/10/2017 16:33

@Peanutty86 I am an constipated I am eating loads of veg so have the urge but then it’s like little droplets. This is how I ended up with piles in my last pregnancy bloody nuisance! Sorry for TMI!

LP1989x · 30/10/2017 16:42

@peanutty86 I'm jealous 😂! I can't go at all! Haha

18mnthsandcounting · 30/10/2017 16:45

@lp1989 thank you I will ask for me early scan too then 😊 how many weeks will you be at your first scan? X

LP1989x · 30/10/2017 17:02

@18mnthsandcounting I'll be 7 weeks exactly (or there abouts) can't wait, 2 weeks today!

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:04

I’m the opposite I’ve got loose ones all the time and terrible trumpeting super smelly - nice! Surprising oh waves so much sex still!

Hulaballoo · 30/10/2017 17:04

I seem to be super regular, more so than normal! And sorry tmi but healthy ones... Lol I blame beetroot and spinach 😐

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:05

Wants not waved!

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:05

Waves I mean!

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:08

Just been to doc won’t get seen till about 10 weeks now as chosen different Hospital no community midwives. She said constipation and or the runs normal. She reckons even though chance of mc generally higher my age the fact I conceived first time, have had two normal pregnancies and feel super knackered are all good indicators of successful preg- just need to relax and ride it out!

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:10

So now I need to wait 5 WEEKS for an appointment!!!! Just keep an eye on my thyroid in the meantime- I have underactive and take medication. 5 WEEKS THOUGH - OMG 😮

Becparks · 30/10/2017 17:11

Bre I am completing a nutrition app to keep an eye on all my vits abs minerals. It helps keep my obsessive mind busy haha 😂

Peanutty86 · 30/10/2017 19:22

Ohhh beetroot. I once has the biggest scare after eating beetroot so won’t have it yet... too red.
I’m having a smoothie with fruit, but and tons of spinach every morning but I’m not really hungry. I don’t crave anything yet, but again can’t be bothered make sure I eat healthily enough yet. That’s bad isn’t it. I mean nothing not healthy, everything is home cooked but not enough veg atm.

Girls, I’ve just counted the pregnancy tests I’ve taken since 22.10.:

  • about 15 ICs because they didn’t give me a line for ages
  • 3 CB digitals with weeks
  • 12 FRERs.

I need to stop. Just the one CB digital next week to show 3+, then I’m happy and out!

Hulaballoo · 30/10/2017 19:34

@Peanutty86 haha that's brilliant, I'm going to start counting mine tonight and I'll let you know tomorrow. 😁just been out for birthday meal and I'm so full and could just fall asleep for the night now. So tired but have a load of school books to mark 😥booo

Becparks · 30/10/2017 20:16

@hulaballo HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎈

lgh05 · 30/10/2017 20:39

@Hulaballoo happy birthday!!!

lgh05 · 30/10/2017 20:41

@Peanutty86 haha that’s brilliant!! I thought I was bad 11 so far. I am going to take a few more I have stored in my cupboard just for fun, and then when my clear blues arrive il do one this week and then one next week. After my final CB at 3+ il stop! Today I haven’t POAS and it’s quite freeing haha!

Peanutty86 · 30/10/2017 20:46

(Yes, that’s 3 on 14 dpo. I literally thought I was about to start AF...)
