Tentatively starting a thread for those due in March 2020! I got my BFP yesterday and EDD is 3rd March next year. I got my BFP really early so nervously waiting for the days to go by until I feel a bit more ‘pregnant’. This is number 2 for me. Anyone else out there in the same boat?

@Frillyfarmer they do say you show much quicker on your second 🙈 I’m wearing a flowy dress today but if this is a sign of things to come I won’t be able to hide it really after a few more weeks!

MunchyMunchkin · 16/07/2019 08:01

@Naylor19 6+1 or 2. Having an early scan on Thursday.

Here’s the nhs link

Vit d not so big a problem in the summer anyway so don’t worry. Folic acid is the big one.

Had a brown spot this morning totally TMI but wouldn't say it was thin like blood it was a lotiony CM type but still feel really worried about what it means as had nothing so far and aprox 5 weeks and 1 day!

Jesskir89 · 16/07/2019 10:23

@helpasisterout I would see your gp5just to be safe I'm sure it's nothing maybe just implantation spotting. Anyone else keep getting stitches?

Jesskir89 · 16/07/2019 12:06

Just a quick question I'm only around 4 weeks 3 days but just started to feel very nauseous and can't eat did anyone else start morning sickness this early?

Mrskcam · 16/07/2019 12:46

@Jesskir89 I get that!! I'm only 4 weeks 1 day but I found that eating little and often really helps x

AnxiousandExcited · 16/07/2019 12:58

@barnyb Thanks for replying! Spoke to my midwife - I think she's going to refer me to the mental health team. Everyone has been very supportive, that helps. As for pregnancy symptoms, I've not been very sick at all, just nauseous. My other 2 I was hardly sick. I struggle instead with crazy exhaustion! Finding it tough to work - anyone else struggling to keep working? I'm only at 5 weeks so got ages to go!

Mrskcam · 16/07/2019 13:35

@AnxiousandExcited I struggle but I work in five guys (the American burger place) very fast paced, on my feet and being around the burgers all day is making my stomach flip

MsInconspicuous · 16/07/2019 13:35

Can someone help me out.. I've no idea how idea how to reply specifically to someone on here? Don't know my arse from my elbow at the moment.. using the app by the way and on a Samsung if that makes any difference!

Jesskir89 · 16/07/2019 13:46

@mrskcam good to know and thanks:) @MsInconspicuous type @ and start typing the person's name after it :)

Jemstar33 · 16/07/2019 13:57

Hello hope it’s ok to join. I got my bfp today, this is baby #1. I’m 5 weeks and 1 day according to my app.

Not feeling any different just sore boobs 😆 I’m still in shock that it’s happened!

My due date will be 27th March 2020

MockingJay27 · 16/07/2019 13:59

I’m now 4 weeks and 2 days if counting from LMP.
My first appointment letter should be in the post in the next few days.
This is my first and I just constantly feel sick with worry about the first scan. I never even thought about this side i just assumed as soon as i was pregnant it would be all lovely and happy, Ive had some back and stomach cramps this week but nothing so severe a hot water bottle can treat and no bleeding but I’m just so scared. Does anyone else feel like this. I think i am going to book an early scan, I know i will feel much better once i hear that heartbeat.

MockingJay27 · 16/07/2019 14:00

MsInconspicuous · 16/07/2019 14:08

@Jesskirr89 thank you! I thought as much but also thought it would have to be something less obvious Blush

MsInconspicuous · 16/07/2019 14:13

@mockingjay27 I'm a little further along at 7+4 but feel exactly the same. Not my first but my boy is 13 in March so feel like it may aswell be! My only advice is to stay away from Google (easier said than done) chances are there's nothing to worry about. I had the same pains at 4 weeks and just assumed i was about to come on. Is just everything stretching xx

@MockingJay27 it's my first too and I feel the same. Found the two week waiting hard, felt instant relief at knowing "I can get pregnant" - but now that's replaced worry that it won't stick!

I think a bit of worry is normal and ok, we've not done this before.

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 14:37

Welcome @Loti92 congratulations!
I'm going to be under my consultant for an ongoing thing which can be affected by pg so I'll be monitored for it

Aimsluk · 16/07/2019 14:38

Hello ladies, is it okay if I join you all?

DD 23rd March 2020.
Nothing aside from really sore nipples.
Was about to start a referral for IVF, and hoping this baby sticks - it's been quite the journey so far!!

Jampot36 · 16/07/2019 15:01

Can i join too? Got my positive yesterday. Due end of March according to the online calculator. 1st time for us so terrified! I mainly have twinges that i mistook for my period coming so only tested when it didnt show up. Struggling with appetite, not sure if its too early for nausea or if im just in shock!

Im a bit of a gym bunny so currently reading up on what i can and cant do!

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 15:15

@Loti92 it's nice having the extra car although not sure mine will mean extra scans just extra blood tests and seeing them 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Naylor19 · 16/07/2019 15:32

@Lemon27 I have days where I do and days where I don't! I have to stop myself from testing to check or I feel I'd become obsessive! I have my early scan on the 7th August so not to long to go thankfully!

Naylor19 · 16/07/2019 15:34

@MunchyMunchkin

I bet you can't wait for that! I have another few weeks, and it feels like forever.

Lovely, that's great thankyou Smile I started my folic acid months ago so I should be ok with that.

Naylor19 · 16/07/2019 15:37

@MockingJay27

I feel completely the same!! My first positive since trying for 2 and a half years. I started fertility treatment in January and have had two round of clomid got pregnant this time, I'm currently 4 weeks 3 days roughly. I worry about every little cramp or sensation at the moment because it means so much to finally be pregnant! I don't know how I'd cope with a loss. Luckily I get an early scan under the clinic so I've only got to wait until August 7th, if I didn't I'd definitely pay for an early one though x
