Due September 2019

[Teddie1]

Hi! So I got my BFP on Christmas Eve and am just under 5 weeks. It's quite a lonely time keeping quiet until after 12 weeks so I thought I would start a thread for ladies who are roughly the same time along so we can keep each other company and talk about this exciting time!

What are people symptoms? Do you feel pregnant yet?? I feel pretty normal! Maybe a little more tired but otherwise fine.
How are people going to play New Year's Eve? We have a big do on the 31st and a family lunch on the 1st - don't know how I'm going to get away without drinking!

Xx

We're due in September (22nd) - three days after my daughter's b'day! Am 5+5 by my calculations. Went to EPU yesterday due to some light pink/brown discharge and now worried. Was too early to see much apart from the yolk sac and said to go back in a couple of weeks.

Oh god the bloating! I look like im 5months gone. We are away with family, I look huge and obviously not saying. But mum will know, she just simply didn't pour me any wine last night. She is a genius, everyone else will think I ate too much chocolate at Christmas (I did that too)

Hey guys I am 5 weeks 3 days and haven't got to many symptoms sore boobs but I have been having cramps like period pains and gas mixed it's scarring the shit out of me!!! I have soooo long to wait till me midwife appointment and it's just constantly sitting on my mind! I am so scared I will lose me little bean! I have also had back ache I do always have back problems but just so nervous!

Thanks for your comments, called the epu but they said they wouldn't be concerned if i was further along and just to keep my apts already made. Had booked a private scan for tomoz so hopefully find out dates then!

Hey guys, has anyone had any cramps/dull aches just on one side of their lower stomach? I've had the same pain for around an hour now and its different to the dull heavy ache I felt last week all along my lower belly! I'm hoping it's normal, just stretching uterus etc but I can't help worrying that it's ectopic because it's only on one side (left) 😳 I'm waiting for a call back from the doctor in the next 20 minutes to discuss 😣

Poppyseed91 and pink had sharp pains and cramps on one side only. I wasn't sure if they were classed as severe, they only lasted 5 to 10 mins each for about 2 weeks then disappeared completely but it was very sore an woke me up if i was alseep. I have the pregnancy in the right side of my love heart shaped uterus.

I had them too for a bit a few weeks back. If it’s severe then worry but being pregnant means there are going to be a lot of funny pains for a while. My backs sore already :(

@Whisky2014 @Karigan195 thanks for the replies! Yeah it's not making me double over in pain, in fact I could have a conversation and people wouldn't know I was in pain so not severe! It's just worrying me due to it being on one side, I'm a worrier though 🤦‍♀️

God my baby brain is in full swing. I thought my husband put the wrong bin out and I heard the bin men coming so rushed out to ask them what bin it is just as they are passing my house. The guy said we had the wrong bin out so I was scrabbling to get the recycling bin out. I'd taken a bag of recycling from the house out just in case it was recycling so thought it would be good to get it all away. But because of the rush I panicked, emptied the bag and threw it on the ground and ran to give him the bin. When I was bringing the bin back round I looked for the bag, no sign! But there was a wee paper receipt on the ground. I think I pulled the receipt out of the bag and instead of putting that in the bin I put the bag in!! It's one of the big heavy duty bag for life bags...whoops! Also if i make a cup of tea I'll take a bowl down instead of a cup!

Ah pink i wouldnt worry. I couldnt talk i would writhe around in pain and was on the verge of crying. My husband had to rub my back and stuff.

So I had my phone appointment and he said he'd rather I was seen just incase, then when I went in for my appointment the doctor had a good feel and took my blood pressure which was normal, she asked if I was anxious because my pulse was a bit fast 🙈 she had a good feel of my belly and it didn't hurt, and she said she isn't currently worried and just to keep an eye on it if it gets worse, and to relax 😂 It's put my mind at rest a bit at least so I'm glad I went 🙌🏼

@pinkpig381 thats good! and really good they saw you, you feel a bit at sea in the early days when no one knows

Noticed it was a bit quieter on this board than the antenatal club (which I didn't find in my first preganancy for a while and it became my anchor) its in Antenatal Clubs - September 2019 Babies #2 maybe see you over there.

Is anyone else exercising!? I've been feeling fine so far and exercising has been boosting my energy levels and making me feel better.. until yesterday possibly overdone it and my vision went blurry and spewed my absolute ringer.. slept all night last night from about 6pm until 1130 this morning and still suffering today with exhaustion and my stomach is still churning and my temperature seems pretty warm as well flushed checks which I've never had before! On the plus side I got my scan letter in which is 24th February by my doctors calculations I'll be 13 weeks by then!

No I have only been walking dogs as exercise and I'm not getting out if breath. I still need a nap after it! I used to do zumba but I have no energy.

I don’t really exercise.
I am still mucking out and riding as usual, but I don’t do anything else normally. Not having any issues in rhe saddle yet, hoping to continue as long as possible.

I’ve still been exercising about 4 times a week but had a bit of a rest this week as my body needed it! I do find it helps give me energy too though! When I don’t want to do too much I find switching for swimming is great and I get the same boost from it!

I’m 5 weeks 4 days but not experiencing any sickness/nausea yet - is this normal? I have had heartburn/indigestion. I’m generally not a sicky person though.xx

@Babycakes1989 yes that's perfectly normal! I've only had a couple of days sickness but I have has nausea from about 7 weeks.
Hope your keeping well and the nausea does stay away! Xx

Thanks sa11zza !! You too 😘 apart from worrying silly about lack of symptoms etc etc (last pregnancy resulted in Mc unfortunately) I am doing ok! So hungry and tired! Xxx

Ooh, hello. Didn’t know there was another September babies thread going!
Or at least I think there is, it’s possible the baby brain has kicked in
I’m 5+6 today and expecting DC2, I already have 14 month old DS

I was hungry as well early on and now I'm the opposite my stomach is just churning all the time! I'm 8+2! I can't wait to get to the 12 weeks mark I've not enjoyed this first 8 weeks just because I never sit down and all I've done is sit down! I'm hoping I get my mojo back soon!
Try not to worry for your next few weeks positive mind and just enjoy having little symptoms for as long as possible! @Babycakes1989 xx

Hello This is my first pregnancy and I'm oh-so-nervous! Over the moon, but early days, so staying grounded for now.

Due on 29.09.19 and currently 5wks 4days. Mild cramping pains with very light peach coloured spotting last week; Extreme tiredness for the last few weeks.

At home and waiting for a phone call back from the Community Midwife for our first conversation. Such suspense!

Wishing you all healthy pregnancies through spring and summer

6+2 and the sickness has started! Is anyone else taking cyclizine?

I'm worried i havent been sick or had much nausea they say having these things is a good sign? :s
