Hi ladies,
Excited to say that today I got my BFP and am due 1st January 2020!
This will be my third baby but my partners first. I have two children aged 9 & 7 from a previous relationship.
Anyone else due around New Year? Sticky beans to all! 😀💗💙

Haha I know!!!!

Hi all, can I join? I had a faint line on 7 May, and tested again next day with a darker line. I felt bit nauseous and very bloated. A blood test confirmed it on 9 May. EDD is 11 Jan 2019. This is my first (after 6 months TTC) and I'm over the moon! Weirdly enough, after the blood test, all symptoms are gone... I'll have a 6-week scan to roll out ectopic, and hopefully to see something (a heartbeat maybe?)

Marty93 · 10/05/2019 09:44

@Cindy61 congratulations - we have the same due date !! Although I found out on 3rd May, then had hol to Cyprus on 5th. We come home on Sunday so will be ringing my doctors first thing Monday!!! So thrilled but so nervous! X

Cindy61 · 10/05/2019 09:51

@Marty93 congratulations too! Best of luck with everything! X

dumdumdeedum · 10/05/2019 09:57

What sort of symptoms are you all experiencing?

I'm very tired but that's about it Confused I've had a couple of queasy moments, but nothing major and they have both been when my DH is cooking dinner could be a link there? So basically I have no symptoms.

I know a lot of people prob aren't checking the thread, as they've joined a Facebook group but I'd rather stay on here.

Congratulations to all the new joiners !

Chantalle3 · 10/05/2019 10:01

@dumdumdeedum I'm also getting it when the OH is cooking dinner, or when I'm eating it but I've told him not to take it to heart 😂 mine is worse in the mornings, dry heaving for about an hour then just queasy.

Sore boobs, thirsty, weeing more. Almost cried twice on tube yesterday. Other than that, not a lot. Thought I would be more tired than I am but thankful I'm not.

ducksandacorns · 10/05/2019 10:06

@dumdumdeedum how many weeks are you? I don't have many symptoms at all, a little tired that's it really. I thought I was queasy and had sore boobs but think I'm overthinking. I'm 6+1

dumdumdeedum · 10/05/2019 10:23

@ducksandacorns I think 6 weeks today.

I broke my phone last month, so lost my period tracker. Of course i hadn't backed up and it's wasn't set to auto do it. So I'm roughly guessing based on remembering when we dtd due to certain events etc. Could be a few days more or less ?!

Kinsters · 10/05/2019 10:38

dumdumdeedum I think I'm six weeks today as well!

I don't have many symptoms. Same as you I've had some nausea but it's not consistent and is mostly just if I smell food. I'm really tired and getting very vivid dreams but it's hard to know if that's pregnancy related.

The one thing I've really noticed is that my boobs are so sore! I went to my exercise claess yesterday and some of the bouncier exercises I was there holding my chest (luckily the room is dark!). Maybe time to get a more supportive sports bra!

BowiesJumper · 10/05/2019 11:37

I've just noticed this thread! Would it make sense to merge the two threads?

SleepingStandingUp · 10/05/2019 13:25

Which is the other thread?

DaisyMay25 · 10/05/2019 13:36

@SleepingStandingUp this one

Due in January 2020 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/3566735-Due-in-January-2020

McHelenz · 10/05/2019 14:15

Merging could be good!

SleepingStandingUp · 10/05/2019 14:17

They're bigger than us so I guess we should move...

McHelenz · 10/05/2019 14:34

The ante natal group has set up a little Facebook page too xx

SleepingStandingUp · 10/05/2019 14:42

I'm away training with work this weekend, usually fairly alcohol fuelled past 7 pm. Def need to be convincing on why I'm not drinking haha

feelinghopeful2 · 10/05/2019 17:53

Hi. Hope I can join, got 2 faint positives on 8th, day before AF was due. Tested today, day after AF due and it’s getting stronger! 🤞🏻 According to the app, 14th Jan due date and 4 weeks 3 days. Going to book an early scan as I had a missed miscarriage in feb. No symptoms yet though! Xx

Mumof4andahalf · 10/05/2019 23:45

Only symptom here is my sense of smell- I can smell a glass of juice from across the room, I'm exhausted but it's been an awful week at work

Chantalle3 · 11/05/2019 05:26

Anyone else in the 5am club? Up having marmite crumpets as they're the only thing I can face when the nausea hits.

Kinsters · 11/05/2019 06:02

I've been waking up pretty early although slept well last night. I'm having crazy vivid dreams every night. It's weird.

Marmite crumpets sound great. I've noticed a pattern to my nausea - if I eat pringles then it seems I'm guaranteed to feel awful. No more pringles 😭

mumsey2be · 11/05/2019 06:28

@Chantelle I am! Hello! 4.27 seems to be my time to rise and feel sick!

Chantalle3 · 11/05/2019 06:33

Glad I'm not the only one. I normally have an alarm around 5am as I commute so maybe it's my body clock waking me up but the nausea hits straight away.

That's such a shame @Kinsters I love pringles! I feel for you. I think mine is when I'm hungry. Or just generally all day yesterday to be fair. I'm going to end up the size of a house if I keep eating to ease it!

Welcome to the club @mumsey2be! At least it's the weekend and we can maybe sneak a nap in a bit later!

Kinsters · 11/05/2019 07:58

Yeah idk what it is about the pringles but they definitely set it off. Weekend naps are the best!

I feel weirdly light headed today but it could just be a coincidence. I definitely think we're way more aware of our bodies when TTC/pregnant.

Missmonkeypenny · 11/05/2019 08:33

Well, the morning sickness has set in! I woke up at 5.30 and spent an hour feeling queasy and not able to clear the lump in my throat before being sick.

Mumof4andahalf · 11/05/2019 16:12

Spent the day de-cluttering and spring cleaning with help from o/h and 3 teens so should be happy but my god I'm a miserable bitch today!
Hope it's hormones and a blip because god help them if im the same tomorrow
