I'm 10-11DPO and just had BFP on a digital. I know it's incredibly early but looking at a due date March 3rd 2019!

I can well and truly say the nausea hit me this week! As soon as I got to 5 weeks i suddenly felt a lot sicker - 6 weeks today and for the last few days have had really sore cramps like period pain (no bleeding - google says this is normal!?) so i haven’t slept well, on top of being really tired.

I was quite enjoying myself until this week :/ Hoping some of my symptoms pass soon - does anyone else have the cramps?

TheWanderlust · 06/07/2018 20:03

@newatbabystuff I've been getting the cramping,, it feels more like tugging and pulling. Hoping it's just where my body is making room for baby growing

PurpleFlower1983 · 06/07/2018 20:07

I have the cramping too although not as bad today which again makes me worry! Everything is a worry!!

frankiefumbles · 06/07/2018 20:11

By the way ladies:

Check your frozen veg!

puravida31 · 06/07/2018 20:19

@newatbabystuff yes I’ve been getting on & off cramping for the last couple of weeks, but it definitely felt worse today. Apparently it’s normal, but still worries me!

newatbabystuff · 06/07/2018 20:53

yeah it’s hard not to worry isn’t it, hopefully it’s just our bodies making room for baby and it’ll pass soon. Smile

HidCat · 06/07/2018 22:32

@PurpleFlower1983 I had nausea from about 9dpo. Now 15dpo and it seems to be improving. @newatbabystuff yep, slight cramping here too.

@Kittymumma I've been eyeing up the Wales babyshow in September. Problem is the 12 week scan would be right when it happens so scared to buy tickets just in case! I think I am going to buy a teddy though.

Thanks for the heads up @frankiefumbles!

Anyday88 · 07/07/2018 07:56

Hi all!

I am hoping I can join you all on here! I got my faint bfp on my wedding anniversary on Wednesday. I've been testing each day and now I have really strong lines 😊😊

Hoping we are lucky this time as had a miscarriage in April, this is baby number 3 for us.

puravida31 · 07/07/2018 08:22

Congratulations @Anyday88 and welcome! What a lovely day to find out! I’m sorry to hear about your previous mc, wishing you all the luck for a sticky bean!

SunshineAndRainbows6 · 07/07/2018 08:44

Thank you for the congratulations all 😁

Hey @hitcat, nice to see you on this side too! Massive congratulations 😍🎉

Yeah not feeling too bad, but deffo feel pregnant now... apparently I'm 4 weeks today! Been feeling, really achey in my calves, like I've worn heels for a month (haha) 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ peeing non stop, constantly hungry and boobs are massive and soooo sore... Caught one on the door earlier and I literally thought I could have ripped it off the hinges 😂👏🏻💪🏻 Bloody door!!!!!

Ooooh has anyone experienced the feeling that they might have a slight UTI!? It doesn't hurt to wee or anything but I sometimes get this pressure like the start of a UTI then it goes!?? 🤔

First baby here so I haven't a clue 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

myotherbagisgucci · 07/07/2018 08:51

Just taken 3 tests and all BFP! I'm in total shock!

Baby due 14th March 2019!!

I just hope it sticks!!! ✨✨✨

PurpleFlower1983 · 07/07/2018 08:52

Congratulations!!

frankiefumbles · 07/07/2018 09:04

Hey @myotherbagisgucci and @Anyday88, congrats and sticky thoughts!

@SunshineAndRainbows6 it's just crazy how you can be "only just" pregnant and have such big symptoms. My boobs also had a massive growth spurt at 4 weeks and my nipples felt like death. I've hit 6 weeks today and they are sore but much more manageable. Had to laugh at catching them on the door. I caught a nipple on the door and I almost died! No idea re UTI but I have been drinking and peeing a fair amount more than usual

SunshineAndRainbows6 · 07/07/2018 09:19

Congratulations and 👋🏻 @myotherbagisgucci! 😁👏🏻🎉

@frankiefumbles Hahahahaha! I'm so glad I'm not the only crazy one then and it's good to know there could be a light at the end of this very long 'sore boobed' tunnel.... 😂👏🏻 And yeah the feeling comes and goes 🤔 But will double check with midwife when I go for my first appointment! 👌🏻

This heat is not helping either.... I work in a hospital and you just wouldn't believe how much of a sweat box those wards are 🙄😩 Swear to god I lost about 3 stone from the amount I sweated yesterday 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Felt like the witch from the wizard of Oz... could have sworn I was 'Melllttinnng'

mostimproved · 07/07/2018 11:38

@SunshineAndRainbows6 congrats, I think I recognise your name from the ttc threads.

Re the UTI feeling, UTIs are more common in pregnancy (as is pretty much any problem you can get with your entire body) which is why they test for them whenever you see the midwife. If you tell the GP you're pregnant and have a uti they should just do a prescription for antibiotics straight away for you to collect, as no one wants to upset a pregnant woman in pain and discomfort!

HidCat · 07/07/2018 14:35

Welcome to the newcomers - congratulations all round! How's everyone doing this afternoon? Just had a short nap, it's very humid though so not entirely refreshing.

lolacola13 · 07/07/2018 16:09

Anyone had a weird b v light brown almost beige discharge at 4w 4 days ? Only a tiny bit mind.. this just gets better and better negative Nancy over here 🙋🏼‍♀️🙄.

frankiefumbles · 07/07/2018 16:15

Yes. I've had that at about 5 weeks and again yesterday. Like what you might have super super early or super super late in your period. Barely detectable, slight colour to creamy discharge. TMI? Looked fine to me 👍

lolacola13 · 07/07/2018 16:18

@frankiefumbles yes sounds exactly like mine . No cramping , but my first hcg was kinda low the day before period was due . Waiting on results of second . Not feeling v optimistic . Thank u anyway hun xoxo

frankiefumbles · 07/07/2018 16:46

Sorry to hear it. Your hcg will be low before your period was due so that doesn't sound all bad. From what you said before you were due on last weekend and you got a +ve? Would be a bit odd if your period did now come. Sending sticky thoughts! Good luck.

lolacola13 · 07/07/2018 18:35

Been testing and they're getting lighter . Just like last time. I'm gutted . How can this happen twice in 8 weeks :(

lolacola13 · 07/07/2018 18:36

Top one of day before yest and today's at the bottom

Due March 2019
ladycarlotta · 07/07/2018 19:09

oh, @lolacola13 I'm sorry. That doesn't look great. But HPGs are not infallible when it comes to line darkness, so do wait for the results. I also had the very very light pinkish cm sometime after my period was due (so probably about 4w4d), and am now 6w1d.

It's cold comfort to say that at least you are conceiving - I know it's gutting right now to feel you might be losing another, but it's good your doctor has a record of this stuff. You WILL get there. Sending sticky bean wishes to you.

HidCat · 07/07/2018 19:11

@lolacola13 I'm so sorry this seems to be happening again. As PP said though, at least your doc has it all recorded so you can progress with their help and monitoring if needs be.

Sophlou · 07/07/2018 19:21

@lolacola13 it took me till 5 weeks to get a strong positive line. At this early stage the time of day and the amount of fluid you've been drinking can still affect the result. Maybe take another test with your first urine in the morning. I won't tell you not too worry because I know it's impossible. I think it could still go either way at this stage there's still a bit of hope there x
