Did anyone get their BFP recently? I got mine last night so I think I'm 4 weeks 1 day today and still very much in shock, according to apps my due date would be October 30th.

Ha, great minds!
Just to add, if you want to come and play (or discuss your nipples somewhere your boss can't find it), send the email address you use for facebook so we can invite you.

Just had my scan!!! All well, heard the heartbeat and I'm further along than I thought - EDD 13 October so 9 + 3! So happy.

Danielle95lab · 13/03/2020 16:32

@roarfeckingroar omg yey! So jealous at how far along you are 😂xx

Frankincense88 · 13/03/2020 16:45

@roarfeckingroar yay! How exciting! What did you think you were originally if you're actually 9+3? Xx

DressingGown87 · 13/03/2020 16:55

@roarfeckingroar congratulations! And wow! Your so far ahead! Have you had you booking appointment?

@Minster2012 hope your ok! So sorry to hear that your having a tough time, and that the situation is being made more stressful.

@BS9790 hope your ok too, don’t worry too much, they are very protected in there.

I m 7 weeks today (unless I m further along that I think) but the bloating is making me look quite pregnant already so that I can't wear high waisted jeans without it being very noticeable, I m not sure maternity clothes would fit yet though

@1990shopefulftm I had a loose jumper on with leggings to work this week, and always wear it with a belt to draw it in. My colleague said I think you best removed you belt, you can see a bump! 🙈

@DressingGown87 I need loose jumpers that work with leggings, i normally live in jeans and T-shirts . sorry that someone figured out you had a bump.

@1990shopefulftm she knew I was pregnant, so I think otherwise she would have just thought I’ve got fat. I have a lot of apricot jumpers from Outfit, and some from ASOS and new look, which are also long in length, and cover my bum to wear with leggings.

roarfeckingroar · 13/03/2020 17:35

I thought I was due around 26-31 October so I'm two weeks further than thought. Can I stay in the group anyway please Smile? It was amazing. I have photos! Saw the little arms and legs and the spine and freaked out because I thought the umbilical cord was a tail Grin

roarfeckingroar · 13/03/2020 17:37

I've lost half a stone over the past couple of weeks because of no alcohol and continuing exercise. No sign of any bump at all, but then it's my first.

@DressingGown87 will have to see if I can find some jumpers for now until the maternity clothes fit.

@DressingGown87 I'm a tad jealous you can see a bump.

Sorry if TMI but I am so gassy! DP keeps looking at me and shaking his head but I'm blaming the baby.

DressingGown87 · 13/03/2020 19:18

@roarfeckingroar haha you can blame the baby for a while! I don’t think it’s all bump as such, more bloat / weight gain 🙈 I’m hoping when I’m past 12 weeks I can start walking and exercising! You’ve done so well keeping up with your classes. Of course you can stay in the group (IMO) 😂 x

roarfeckingroar · 13/03/2020 19:31

@DressingGown87 I'm just really lucky in that I feel absolutely fine so no reason not to. Also no other kids to take care of, a gym under my flat and wfh a lot: its all circumstance.

DressingGown87 · 13/03/2020 19:34

@roarfeckingroar I feel ok, apart from being exhausted. Get quite a lot of pain and the right, but the sonographer said on Wednesday the pain on my r/h is a cyst, and the baby is on the left. I think I’m just anxious to do anything!

Glad your feeling too! Don’t over strain yourself!

roarfeckingroar · 13/03/2020 19:41

@DressingGown87 that's probably sensible. Pushing yourself wouldn't be good for your or baby. I'm really happy about today Smilesettling in with a pizza now.

DressingGown87 · 13/03/2020 20:10

@roarfeckingroar it’s so lovely seeing it all the screen, makes it feel real! I do still think mine looks like a Cocker spaniel though! Hopefully it resembles a baby a bit more on Wednesday! You going to inform your midwife of your dates? And hopefully get your 12 week scan in time?

ablisha · 13/03/2020 20:16

@roarfeckingroar great to hear your scan went well! ☺️

Minster2012 · 13/03/2020 21:18

Wow @roarfeckingroar that’s amazing being so much further on!! How fab! So good you are still feeling good too.

Still in limbo here, waiting on second HCG results tomorrow & resigning ourselves to finding out embryo likely stopped growing & needs to miscarry or its ectopic in which case we would need to get in laws involved in caring for toddler DS & telling them everything tomorrow if I have to go into hospital 😥will be shit

roarfeckingroar · 13/03/2020 21:19

Yeah I need to because my current scan date will be on the cusp of 14 weeks which will be too late. It was AWESOME to see it!

sunbreak · 14/03/2020 10:18

@ellenpartridge I'd like to join the FB group. What do you need from me or can you share the link to it?

roarfeckingroar · 14/03/2020 16:07

Has everyone left for the fb group? I PM'd my email address but can't find it

sunbreak · 14/03/2020 17:01

@roarfeckingroar how do you PM, or see your messages? I only use the app and I can't seem to to find this as an option.

Frankincense88 · 14/03/2020 17:03

@roarfeckingroar I hope everyone's not left here for FB! I don't use it so will be staying here on my lonesome by the looks 😂
