So today I found out I’m pregnant with #1 ! & I honestly haven’t stopped crying with happiness all morning. Although I know it’s early days, I just wanted to see if there were any other early Oct babies due so that we can share the journey! I’m over the moon ❤️❤️❤️❤️

@bluemoon2468 thinking of you, hope you're okay x

bluemoon2468 · 11/02/2020 22:22

Thanks for all the kind messages. After 9 hours in 2 different A+Es have been booked in for a scan tomorrow! They said I could stay in hospital overnight or go home and call an ambulance if the pain gets much worse, so I chose the latter. DH is stuck in Madrid for a few more days so my friend is going to come to the scan with me. Doctor did say it could well be completely normal as I've had no bleeding or other symptoms of an ectopic, but they'd rather have it checked. Just trying to focus on the fact that, all being well, I'm going to see my baby and his/her heartbeat for the first time tomorrow, so trying to get excited not scared. Just sad DH will miss it.

Thinking of you @bluemoon2468 sorry your husband cannot be with you but hope everything goes well for you tomorrow.

SkyBlue20 · 11/02/2020 22:53

Sending lots of love, hugs and positive thoughts @bluemoon2468, I hope the pain isn’t too unbearable tonight and that your scan is nice and early tomorrow xxx

purplecandyfloss · 12/02/2020 05:39

Hi, mind if I tentatively sneak I to the October club? Approx 5 weeks going off the general LMP calculator. All sorts of emotions going on right now but definitely happy this would be #2

Zaalfruit · 12/02/2020 07:18

@purplecandyfloss congrats xxx

@bluemoon2468 sending lots of hugs and positive dust to you xx

Quiffy · 12/02/2020 07:47

@bluemoon2468 wonderful way to look at. Sending good vibes your way and enjoy that heartbeat ❤️

@purplecandyfloss congratulations!

I've woke up with honking morning sickness today. Tentatively trying to nibble on a ginger nut 🤮

Congratulations @purplecandyfloss! 🎉

Hope you’re doing ok today, @bluemoon2468 💕

@Quiffy oh no!! Hope it subsides soon 🤢 I woke up with the most sensitive nipples - seems to be my most reoccurring symptom but I quite like it as tells me everything is probably ok 🤞🏼

Hi all first post on here hoping to join in the chat. Had my bfp a couple weeks back giving me a due date of 1st October. Making me around 6 weeks now. No huge symptoms other than tired and my stomach has been solid and boobs a bit tender, and went off some foods. I already have my DD who will be 5 in April and my wee girl who was 1 in Dec. I had 2 mmc inbetween them in aug 2017 & jan 2018. I havent phoned maternity services yet to book apts as tbh just feel like its a 50/50 chance i wont lose this baby!! Anyway advice please last night i was bathing the girls and started having some sore cramps in my tummy last probs 20 mins only and hubby took over bedtime routine. I went to the loo and had blood on my pants (sorry tmi!) Put a pad on and had a bit more but then it stopped and not had any more pain or bleeding since. Not sure what to do or think!!!

Ellabella234 · 12/02/2020 09:18

Hiya and congratulations to new ladies who've joined🌷 @bluemoon2468 Hope all goes ok today with your scan and you are feeling ok.

Do any of you struggle with anxiety? I know we all generally maybe worry about things are now we are in early pregnancy as some of you have been saying but before you were pregnant did you have any anxiety? I do a bit, and I take cbd oil for it and it helps loads (no thc) but yesterday and today I've just got this weight on my chest and feel so anxious! I don't even know what exactly about ? it's driving me mad because I really don't want another pregnancy where my anxiety takes over! I was going to do things differently this time, better perspective, meditate, in a different place, relationship is under way less strain, just try hard to be happy and more relaxed. But I'm only 5 weeks and I've already got this weight on my chest!! Maybe it's just hormones and natural? I hope this is ok to post I just wondered if any of you feel similar. I guess I'll just take thing day by day and try to snap out of it xx

CouscousEvaporator · 12/02/2020 09:20

@bluemoon2468 hopefully all is well xx

Congratulations on the new bfps !!

I’m feeling a little better today, thankfully! Bit of nausea and like you skyblue I’ve got sore boobs. Just counting down to 12 weeks 😅

CouscousEvaporator · 12/02/2020 09:30

@Floatinginmybubble was it bright red blood? I’m sorry about your mcs x

@Ellabella234 I don’t usually have anxiety and I am getting waves of it, perhaps it is something hormone related? But I can imagine if you already have anxiety it may get a bit worse. Take care of yourself.

Floatinginmybubble · 12/02/2020 09:34

@couscousEvaporator yes it was!

NeuroMama · 12/02/2020 10:03

I feel so rotten! I just need to come complain about it as in real life no one knows and so I'm having to pretend to be normal (which makes it even worse!). For the last 10 days I have felt constantly exhausted, achey, nauseous, dizzy and honestly I am so miserable right now. It is such a struggle just keeping on top of work and basic life maintenance. I think I'm going to have to tell my boss before 12 weeks to explain how unproductive I am being! I am so glad to be pregnant after trying for so long and I will take any symptom my body wants to throw at me, but I really didn't expect to be so wiped out so soon.

Mummy1998 · 12/02/2020 10:30

Hi everyone. My period isn’t due for another 7-10 days. However me being the most impatient person took a test this morning. I’m not sure whether it’s an Evap line or not.. please some feedback. Also I know it’s too early to test just curiosity, I shall test day of expected period.

Today I found out I’m pregnant! Early Oct babies please join!
Treacle81 · 12/02/2020 11:26

Congrats to to the BFS! Oh girls, just got such a fright there! Not been to toilet in a few days, was constipated when last went, today was just awful. Had blood in my stool, in the water and when I wiped. Defo from back end tho. I do have IBS and piles but have never been this bad. Defo thinks it’s Pregnacare max, will speak to midwife at appointment tomorrow and just bought soft apricots 🤮 but need to get this under control. Just keep in mind with this multivitamin as I drink plenty of water and eat pretty healthy and still really bad x

Treaclepie19 · 12/02/2020 11:42

Gosh @Treacle81 I'd get some lactulose and perhaps change the vitamin? I'm only taking folic acid and vitamin d.

Sorry you're feeling rubbish @NeuroMama. I hope it eases a bit soon!

I haven't been on here for a bit!
I'm 6+3 and feeling quite positive today. We had a scan on Monday that looked good so that's a good little step forward.
Today just focusing on trying to get out the house and keep active... while eating fruit instead of all the salty and sugary things I'm craving.

Treacle81 · 12/02/2020 11:46

@Treaclepie19 aw that’s good to hear. Unfortunately lactulose gives me terrible wind, I’ll see what me suggests. Annoying thing is had those two in my hand and girl in Boots ‘recommended’ the £20 bloody multivitamin! x

Treaclepie19 · 12/02/2020 11:46

@Mummy1998 I can see something but I'm not sure if its grey. If your period is due in 7-10 days though I wouldn't expect implantation has happened yet to get a BFP.
Good luck!

Treaclepie19 · 12/02/2020 11:49

Gah that's rubbish @Treacle81. I hope they can sort something out for you!

Lucylou37 · 12/02/2020 11:51

@Treaclepie19 @Treacle81 when I went to the doctor she said get the normal pregnacare, she seemed very specific about that! Not sure if that's of any help?! I found buying a large green juice and have a couple of glasses a day helped get things moving down there a little easier! X

SkyBlue20 · 12/02/2020 12:08

Gosh is it too early to have baby brain?! Just made two really simple (fortunately not big) errors at work in a task I’ve done daily for the last however many years 🤦🏻‍♀️ I hold out no hope for the next 7.5 months 😂

Treacle81 · 12/02/2020 12:32

Just really bad day! Just had email to say someone has contracted shingles in my office! I’ve not had chicken pox so another question to ask mw tomorrow- just constant worry 😔x
