Due June 2020...

[Kittypillar]

Can't quite believe it but I've just taken a test this morning... Baby no.2 is on the way! According to the NHS due date calculator, I'm due on 1st June 2020.

We're both a bit surprised as we'd only just started "trying not trying" (very lucky, I know) and our first TTC journey was a bit of a rollercoaster. But yeah... Here we go! DD will have just turned 2 when they arrive. Terrifying but we're both very excited!

Anyone else also found out the same today?

Just did the online booking in forms and booked my first midwife appointment for 3 weeks time when I'll be 9 weeks. It all feels more real now weirdly.

@Anny27 oh really, thank you! That makes sense, less worried now😂❤️

@Lemonysherbet it does make it seem more real, known a week now I still can't believe it. x

@AmyMaria2 glad your mind is at rest now. All will be fine 😁 ❤️

Does anyone know how many weeks clearblue goes up to, it 3+ the most?

I will be 10.5 weeks on my midwives appointment I thought they may see my earlier given I had a mc but doesn’t seem they’re too worried.

Welcome @Chaosonthehorizon

Hello everyone I’m new on here just on reading all the comments Congrats on all the bfp. Just got mine today at 10dpo. Could someone tell me how you upload pics

congrats on the BFP @Chaosonthehorizon and hugs for the "oh my god what have I done wobble". I've definitely been there. I don't think the hormones help.

Congrats and welcome @Cath1234, are you on desktop or mobile. MN can be a pain for uploading pics.

Yeah I think it only goes up to 3+ @Jemstar33 How are you doing?

Ooo that's really not long @Lemonysherbet !

@MamaPeas thank you! I’m doing great thanks how are you?
It’s my birthday this weekend and also my friends wedding, first wedding/birthday sober in I don’t know how long!! All my family will be there too and I’ve not told them. Going to be tough! Xxx

@MamaPeas thank you. And on mobile

Got loads of cramps tonight. It's hard not to overthink them, really feels like period cramps too. AHH why is pregnancy so similar to AF symptoms at times!

I had a sore tum last night... deffo freaks you out! But stress isnt healthy sooooo try and banish those bad thoughts away 💛💛💛💛 easier said than done I know! X

@lemonysherbet i woke up with really period like cramps the other night. Really anxiety provoking but by the looks of it almost everyone on here has had cramps early on which reassures me :)

Thanks @Jemstar33!

From my workings out I should be 12 weeks around the 23rd November, and I've got family coming down to stay on the 25th so hoping that will be good timing to tell them😁

I realised my period type cramps are worse first thing as I wake up needing a wee! Happened twice now, first time really panicked me, now realised it's the cramps plus really needing a wee making the morning worse. Maybe tmi but maybe it helps others, I'm more relaxed about it now.

Hi everyone, hope I can join. I got my BFP on Sunday and should be due about 7 June. This is a bit of a miracle for us, as literally in early September we saw a fertility clinic who gave us pretty low chances of natural conception. I am incredibly nervous, as I have not had any symptoms at all beyond the period type cramping and trapped gas.

Ahh congratulations @Hawse that's incredible news! So happy for you! Enjoy it and try to relax 😊 Trapped wind is definitely a symptom I can relate to 🙈 !

I'm officially 5 weeks today - finally! Calculated my due date wrong to begin with so I was stuck in the 4 week range for 9 days... which doesn't feel like a long time but my god it was the longest "week" of my life! Still wake up hoping that I hold out another day and that all is going to be well. Does this anxiety ever get any better?

Also how are people finding their eating habits? I am usually so healthy but since I found out I've been eating crap. I know this needs to change as I read on my update this morning that the baby is officially receiving nutrients through the placenta now, but I'm just finding it so hard. Especially with constant snacks around at work 🙈😭

Welcome @Hawse congratulations! I know how you feel I've been with a fertility clinic for 18 months and had signed up for ivf in February! x

@BexCinnamon I've really lost my appetite so just trying to eat whatever I fancy at the moment but I'm 5 weeks Saturday, so will have to try and get healthier as well!😂 x

Hi @Hawse same with me also, taken 20 months to get here 🙏🏼❤️🤞🏽 So happy for you. I’m 6 days ahead of you and I’m having the same symptoms. I’m also feeling sick but not to the point i know I’ll be sick.
I’m finding ginger really helps with the gas. Ginger tea, ginger juice, ginger sweets lol.

@BexCinnamon I’m just eating whatever I fancy too and it’s not good. I’m trying to make a conscious effort to get more veggies and eat a breakfast because I usually skip it. It’s so hard in an office tho, there’s always treats around! Xxx

My friend got these sweets for me. They’re so good! You can get them in Holland and Barrett xxx

@Jemstar33 they look good, is that what's helping with your bloating? Xx

Yes @AmyMaria2 you should get some. How you doing? Xxx

I'll have a look @Jemstar33 ! I'm feeling okay, finally getting darker lines on cheapies as well now, just waiting for my 3+ digital and I'll probably stop testing. Are you still testing? Xxx

@AmyMaria2 that’s fab I bet you’re so happy to see them!
I may test again next Monday to check I’m still showing at 3+. I’m just concerned with lack of symptoms but I suppose I should be grateful Xxx

@Jemstar33 yeah I think I'd carry On with the odd digital but I'm still testing every morning atm 🙈 I know me to mine seem to have disappeared a little, but yes we should enjoy it while it lasts lol xxx

Hi

All

Firstly congratulations to you all! I just wanted to see if anyone is experiencing the cold like me? I am around 5 weeks, and feel cold..? Can’t remember feeling like this in my last pregnancy? Could be down to the weather here at the moment in the Uk? Anyone experiencing similar please?

Thankyou x

@2ndaftercsection yes I am feeling the cold! Especially in the evenings! X
