I just booked our wedding!!!! For July! 10 weeks to go. I must be mad.

Morning everyone!
Hope work is a tad more pleasant for everyone today. The 2 weeks off came at a good time really.
I'm back at work tonight for 3 nights, wah!! I'm so tired already.
I'm so scared to think about scans at the moment. I'm going week to week and then will maybe get an 8 week scan. I got the 4d scans with both my other children so will likely do it again this time.
I'm testing multiple times per day still - I'm so anxious. My partner is probably worse than me after our miscarriage a couple of months ago.
But today I got a positive Clearblue digital and my lines are darker on the cheapie tests. Awaiting delivery of more FRER (I am mental!!). Is anyone else as nutty as me? 🙈
Congrats on booking your wedding @Eliza9919 🎉

This made my heart happy this morning - 4+3 😁

Hi ladies, can I join? I am 5+4, having very mild symptoms so far but some pretty bad stretching pains in the evening and at night. They woke me up last night actually. Anyone else having painful stretching?

Eliza9919 · 24/04/2019 12:39

@MamaGeordie we're 1 day apart, I'm 4+4 today. I think I know the day of implantation too, 16th April, due to cramps.

Wlcome @Mum637k, The more the merrier.

@ELJ1502 I might try the antibiotic thing

MamaGeordie · 24/04/2019 12:44

@Eliza9919 ah lovely!
Welcome @Mum637k Brew

Nervously joining. Hello!

4+6 today. Not getting excited until after the 7 week mark due to early MC in October and then MMC in January (10 weeks but pregnancy stopped developing at 6 weeks)

Logging symptoms and have bought two CB digital weeks to hopefully see a progression!

Eliza9919 · 24/04/2019 13:46

Fingers crossed for you, and everyone else, @ducksandacorns

Re: the harmony test, the nhs give you a blood test and if you are higher risk, they offer further testing. That's good to know because the harmony test at the place near me is 500 quid.

I am so exhausted today. How is everyone else doing?

tinatsarina · 24/04/2019 17:42

@ELJ1502 I'm tired to but I thought it was from coming off coffee lol

Anyone getting pain twinges? I think it's gas but had a MC last month so I keep panicking thinking it's going to happen again to the point where I had a dream the other night that I had started bleeding. I'm trying to reassure myself that it's a different egg and sperm this time but I'm still anxious.

AysLon · 24/04/2019 17:48

Hi guys can I join? I was a lurker on the April Bus thread and think i commented once or twice. Smile

I am 15dpo and I got my BFP 11dpo. Sop happy! But I know it's mega early days, it'll be nice to talk through symptoms with you girls as we go along! I feel nauseous but interestingly only from 3pm onwards, sides of boobs are tender but not sore. My uterus feels tender today, so much so I think wearing tights will become an issue if it carries on. That's it! The Pregnancy+ app and Flo says I am 4+3. So weird to think 2 weeks ago there was no life inside me now there is!

ELJ1502 · 24/04/2019 17:52

@tinatsarina I've had cramps from before I got my BFP. I read that it's something to do with everything stretching for the baby.

Welcome @AysLon 🙂

SquigglyOne · 24/04/2019 17:53

Hello new joiners 👋 congratulations on your bfps - sending sticky baby dust your way!!

@MamaGeordie you are definitely not alone, pretty sure I’ll be poas for the next few days!

@Eliza9919 congratulations on booking your wedding! Enjoy every moment! I got married last year and can honestly say it was the best day of my life - though I’m pretty sure having a baby will top it!! Xxx

AysLon · 24/04/2019 18:01

@MamaGeordie I'll probs POAS every Saturday just till I am assured in my mind too, I've got two CBs left so will deffo use one this coming Saturday. Weird to think by th3 time of my 2nd test I'll be 6 weeks. I need to just take it week by week, it's hard not to get carried away.

Anyone else majorly gassy? Also I hear you 're decaff issues, I was on two coffees and 2 teas a day before Saturday and decaff just isn't the same lol

Eliza9919 · 24/04/2019 19:32

I had the most embarrassing thing happen to me today. I ate a plum after lunch of basically just vegetables.

Later on, after the person next to me came back (he was in a meeting all morning but now t when this happened Hmm ) and I got a bit of a pain and wind. I let some out as it came out silently but when I stood up it all came out with a big long noise. I tried to cover it up with the sound of my creaky, bangy chair but I don't know if I got away with it.

I just walked off Blush

Mum637k · 24/04/2019 19:52

@Eliza9919 that is hilarious! Sorry I totally get your pain I am SO incredibly gassy I just spend all day holding in farts 😞 they are smelly too, it's so embarrassing as I can't hide it from hubby

tinatsarina · 24/04/2019 21:56

@Eliza9919 I'm gassy to it's not good. I think that's why I feel twinges and stuff, trapped wind rather than anything being wrong lol

Eliza9919 · 25/04/2019 06:11

It's awful isn't it.

I'm sooo tired. I can't believe it's still only Thursday. I went to bed at 10.30 last night and went straight to sleep but I'm still knackered this morning.

Anyone else really full? I'm trying to eat three meals a day but I would really have been ok if I didn't eat dinner yesterday.

OP posts:
MandaAish · 25/04/2019 06:13

Hahaha! I’m so gassy too, and I can’t hold it in because it hurts too much - all that progesterone.
Also all this coughing is making me heave and almost through up 🤭. This cold needs to go away 🙄

ELJ1502 · 25/04/2019 06:34

I'm the opposite. I'm constantly starving.

Eliza9919 · 25/04/2019 08:41

I was like that last week and eating absolute junk but now I'm trying to eat clean and telling myself its the baby's nutrition so I can't feed it mcd's lololol

OP posts:
ducksandacorns · 25/04/2019 08:49

Good morning! Did another clear blue this morning. Line is stronger. I know it's not great to keep POAS but it was good to see that dark line!

How is everyone this morning? I'm feeling fine, which I don't like 😂

MamaGeordie · 25/04/2019 09:31

Oh I'm with you on the windy tummy! I blamed my patient several times last night 🤣 the windy pains are the worst! But bless you @Eliza9919 - we're all in the same boat if any consolation. That chair needs an oil 😉

I'm also the opposite and feel hungry all the time. Making the most of it as in my previous 2 pregnancies I was as sick as a dog from 6 weeks up until 24 weeks!

Yeah to darker lines @ducksandacorns I'm also a POAS addict and tested this morning to make sure my line's getting darker. When u have no other symptoms the reassurance of progression on tests is helpful.

My main symptoms atm seem to be bloating, wind, hunger, tiredness, dry eyes, excess saliva and some pulling feelings down low. How's everyone else?
