First Pregnancies with Nov/Dec Due dates?

[EL332]

Hello

I thought I'd start a new thread for people who have are due late Nov/ early Dec

A bit about me...

I'm 28 have been married nearly 2 years and we were very lucky and managed to fall pregnant first month TTC...

I've self referred on the NHS website and am awaiting my booking in appointment 🙂

What's your story? ❤️

Thanks ladies. Thought I'd share some positivity. If anyone has any advice on Thrush with pregnancy, It'd be much appreciated 😫

Is anyone else having sleep troubles? I seem to drift off ok but for the last few days now I've been waking in the night (unusual for me as I always sleep through) then finding the need to go to the loo - guess that's normal - but I only seem to be able to get comfy lying on my left side - rightside, back or front are all uncomfortable...😴

@HanahMarie - i was up four times last night! I had thought that it was pressure on the bladder in later pregnancy that caused it but I guess it is hormones instead.

In other news, apparently I am giving off a ‘pregnancy vibe’. Mentioned in passing that I had been under the weather to a colleague who immediately said ‘oh, you’re pregnant, aren’t you? I can always tell’. So much for keeping it quiet until 12 weeks!

Yep no sleep here either :-/ I didn’t think symptoms would be this apparent so soon! I finally just got off to sleep this morning when the phone rang...PPI! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Glad it's not just me then 🙈

@AppleCocoon - the not telling people thing is killing me - I'm not showing so that prevents that awkward question but it's becoming increasingly hard to not mention silly thing like cravings to people - we caved and had to tell our close family this weekend - but they know I'm only 9 weeks so we're still trying not to get too over excited yet...

@HanahMarie we share a house with my MiL so I've been swigging gaviscon in secret all weekend!

Hi everyone, as some of you know I had a miscarriage about 3 weeks ago, I was just wondering if it’s possible to get pregnant again so soon! I know ideally wait for your first period to come back again but we had unprotected sex last night and I’m just wondering what the chances are?

Scan booked for Sunday 29th - I'll be 8+4 by my calculations so hopefully should be able to see something by then!

Cramping here today and generally feeling sorry for myself. Cramps had eased off but not sure why they have started again? Dr Google and an anxious mind are not my friend right now worrying x

ND348 I've had spells of cramping throughout. I think some of it is stuff relaxing and stretching and some of it is digestive!

AnotherOriginalUsername glad it's not just me. It's just such a worrying time over thinking every twinge

Anyone got any advise for me :(

Hi @Waiting4babyN1 I'm sorry, I don't know the answer but didn't want to leave you without a response ❤️

@EL332 thank you lovely, it’s ok, I’m just a bit scared/excited that it’s either too soon to be pregnant again or whether I’m wondering for no reason xxx

@waiting4babyn1 there's no reason it can't be possible. Have you visited miscarriage association online? They say this....

Doctors usually advise against having sex
after miscarriage until all the bleeding
has stopped.This is to avoid infection.
They often advise having at least one
period before trying for another baby.
This is because the first menstrual
cycle after miscarriage is often much
longer or shorter than usual. If you get
pregnant during that cycle, it may be
difficult to work out when you
conceived.
So you may think you are eight weeks
pregnant, say, when a scan shows a six-
week pregnancy. If you’ve already had a
miscarriage that involved confusion
over dates, that kind of uncertainty
can be very hard to deal with.
If you do get pregnant in that first
cycle, that’s not going to make you
more likely to miscarry.There is even
some evidence that conceiving in the
first six months after a miscarriage
actually lowers your risk of
miscarriage next time.

So only reason to wait is so you can be more sure about dates bit doesn't seem to be s physical reason xx

I was just about to say the same as @Emma198 - you just wouldn't know when you ovulated or when your fertile window was, I think that's the only reason.

@Emma198 @AnotherOriginalUsername thank you guys so much for your help! Luckily I stopped bleeding last weeks so my worry of infection can go out the window now, thank you for all of the information too @Emma198 I feel a little less judged for trying again so soon xxx

‘@Waiting4babyN1’ don’t feel judged :-) I think everyone on this thread understands the desire to have a baby and successful pregnancy. Obviously every woman is completely different but a friend of mine had a miscarriage last year and is now very heavily pregnant, I think she conceived two months after her MC. Sending you lots of luck and positive thoughts :-)

Sorry that was my attempt at putting your name in bold 🤦🏽‍♀️

Cramping turned to stabbing pain so went to gp today. Referred me to epu query ectopic. This is so scary. Just waiting for dh to come home from work and take me as they have told me not to drive. Doc said it's not certain but best to check. Fingers and toes crossed right now

@ND348 I hope everything is ok ❤️

@Rachbones1992 thank you so much for you support, that really means a lot xx oh wow, ok so there is some hope that it could happen, congratulations to her xxx

@ND348 crossing fingers and toes for you! Must be very hard waiting to find out and I hope you get good news :-) good that your doctor is so on the ball and hopefully you will get some reassurance today :-)

@Waiting4babyN1 not a problem :-) we all know how difficult it is waiting for those two lines and then to have that taken away from you is very hard so of course your inpatient to try again! There is definitely hope for you! And you’ve got pregnant once so at least you know that’s not an issue :-)

I can’t tell you how many friends and relatives I know who have had MC and now have healthy children :-) I think that’s what has made me so nervous in my own pregnancy, I’ve seen so many people have a MC before their PFB that I’m almost waiting for it to happen. Anyway let us all know in the future :-) you’ll get there :-)

@waiting4babyn1 a girl who works for me miscarried at c5weeks and then got pregnant again straight away, due in a couple of months. I don't think anyone would ever judge you for trying again straight away, I certainly would be trying. Xx

@ND348 hope everything is ok xx

@Rachbones1992 it’s horrible, I was so upset yesterday, took a pregnancy test to make sure my levels were normal again and to see the negative broke my heart. Thank you lovely I have everything crossed that all goes well for you, I will let you know asap
