April 2020 Babies

[Islandermum]

I'm so excited to start this thread. Looks like I'll be due 1st April from my ovulation day (28th July by last period)!

I'm absolutely over the moon after a MC in May.
Bring on the April Babies!

Age 23
Baby #1 (pregnancy #2)
EDD 1st April

🧚

I also went and had a nice little 2 hour nap @codlingmoth - 3 more weeks off and then it's back at work and all go.

For those panicking about 1 baby or going for a 2, those are the biggest adjustments! At 3 you accept that you're outnumbered and your house will never be tidy again, and I'm hoping 4 will eliminate 'I've got no-one to play with' syndrome. Or just turn me grey but I don't like my hair anyway

@Islandermum we have the same due date.

I found out last week and i am over the moon. one month off the pill so i am very lucky.

felt a little crampy and sicky this week and my boobs are on fire!!!

first midwife appointment is on the 13th which feels like forever away.

I am going on holiday on the 27th so i have booked an early scan on the 26th to ease my mind

how is everyone feeling?

@Victoriamcm hi! I think my due date will be the 5/6 of April. Could be wrong I have no idea! Last cycle day 1 was 29/30 of June! I feel constantly nauseous. Doesn't seem to go! And really tired the last two days. Can't decide whether it's just the excitement! How are you feeling? Is this your first? X

@newgirl89

This is my 3rd. My youngest is 8 so a bit of a gap.... Forgotten what it all feels like.

I am much more nervous this time..not sure why but I seem to stress about the slightest thing

@Victoriamcm as amazing as MN is. It has made me so aware of everything and possible complications. I'm terrified! Almost better to be unaware! X

I am not pleased for you that you’re all feeling so crap but it is really nice that we are all going through this together!

Anyone else absolutely ravenous!!?

Starving all the time! Starting this pregnancy quite heavy so can't afford to eat when I want to!
Went to the docs today to make changes with some of the medication I am on. He has prescribed high dose folic acid so need to remember to take it each day. My midwife booking in appointment isn't until 3rd September!

@heidibuttons I also had a higher dose of folic acid prescribed today. I'm not hungry all the time yet (5w6d) but also don't want to eat all the time. I'm 14 stone and 5'5 do high BMI over 30 😞 I'm making positive changes, eating healthy and trying to walk more! Good luck with your pregnancy! 😁

@heidibuttons my midwife appointment is also later (I'll be 10 weeks by then) mine is 29th aug!

I'm losing track of all the due dates already and we probably have twice as many people to join! Does anyone mind if I make a list? Actually I'm asking if anyone minds but I've gone and done it anyway

They'll probably get adjusted at the first trimester scan, and as people name change back to their original identity (or that might just be me...)

@Islandermum rereading I see you're moving countries soon! Moving is such a pain, doubly so when your preggers. Much sympathy!

Good idea @timepoor

@timepoor confident I'll be an April baby again though! They put me back a week last time and then I went 2 weeks over!

@ttc19 that must have felt like the world's longest pregnancy....

@timepoor The worlds longest pregnancy with a 9lb 15oz baby at the end

I'm guessing my due date will be around 3rd April.
@eskimod My bmi is 34. I had lost a stone at the start of the year and have put it back on over the summer! Not ideal but going to try and eat well and keep active. Cutting out wine will help I am sure! I've spent most of today with a headache which I think is caffeine withdrawal... decaf coffee isn't really hitting the spot.

@timepoor I think I'm 4th April :)

@ttc19 I also went 2 weeks over with my last pregnancy. He was only 9lb 10 though! 😖😂

Amazing idea! When I had my early scan they put my edd to 26th march! I am six weeks pregnant tomorrow and just vomitted for the first time. Oh the joys!

@heidibuttons Only!! 😂 I'd selfishly like a March baby because DD is April & I am too!

Hello congratulations lads! Exciting and stressful times! I did a test on Saturday and think I'm due on 4th April. Am a bit worried because some of you on the same timeline as me are being prescribed things but when I called my Dr they just told me to go online to self refer to a midwife but then online it said I can't do that until 6 weeks. What if I'm supposed to take extra folic or something? How do I know?
Sorry this pregnancy has turned me into a worry monster and also just an all round monster! I've been snapping at my boss :/ and getting involved in office gossip - who even am I?!!
