Due March 2021

[Kangaroo77]

Hello,

Anyone get their bfp this week/recently and due late February or March? I got my bfp this week and due date is showing at 1st March 🥰. Looking to connect with others. Xxx

@MrsBlue1986 lovely idea! 😊 I’m an ex teacher - don’t think that counts haha but empathise with all those worried about being in the classroom. I only left last year and still get serious teacher guilt for not being in the thick of it and with the kids 😔 - now a civil servant.

• is it your first pregnancy!? Yes :)
• How old are you/where from? I'm 27 from Lancashire
• What DPO (days post ovulation) (days post ovulation) (days post ovulation) are you!? I'm 5+1, I got my bfp the day after I was due AF.
• Any weird symptoms!? A little bit more tired, walk up waaay earlier to pee and feeling a bit sick/empty when I wake and if I’ve not eaten recently.. Oddly have less discharge than I was expecting, googled this and then panicked myself that it wasn’t normal 🤦‍♀️ need to step away from googling symptoms and statistics!!

• Is this your first pregnancy!? Yep

• How old are you/where you from? I'm 30 and from Belfast

• What DPO(days post ovulation)days post ovulation) are you!? No idea but according to LMP I'm 6 weeks today

• Any weird symptoms!?? Quite tired (although I'm a teacher and we just finished school for summer so it could be end of term tiredness 😆), keep waking early in the morning, the odd wave of nausea and sensitive to smells. The worst though is definitely the boobs. They ache!!

@AuntieR456 Hey! Lancashire is where i grew up..and within minutes of where we live now. Ha i never know in these groups if we somehow know each other in another life haha. God im the same as you...Google everything! I even Google 'why do i Google so much!?' 🤣

@knickknack30 how was it working in a school!? Did you tell your head you were pregnant, as were 'more vulnerable now'? X

Oh the googling is real!! It's not stop 🤣
@mrsblue1986 I've only been in about 5 days since lockdown began and only 2 of those have been since my BFP. It was fine, I'm secondary so very easy to keep my distance thankfully. Havent told anyone yet because it's still so early and that's us off for summer now as of Monday just past. I dont start back till the end of August so will be just over 12 weeks and I will tell them then all being well. The dates have worked out quite nicely really xox.

@Mrsblue I was testing alot until I got to 3+ on a clearblue digi on Friday and swore I wouldnt do anymore. Wity my miscarriage in October the lines started getting lighter after 5 days and I just knew. I had my hcg read on Monday last week and they went from 980 to 3980 in 3 days so GP was very happy with it. I swore after my last miscarriage I wouldnt put myself through it again so this was a surprise and really caught me off guard. Both my children now have birthdays in Feb and this one will be due 26th Feb so it seems my body only likes Feb babies 😂😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Lots of chat to catch up on!

• Is this your first pregnancy!? Yes, first one
• How old are you/where from? I’m about to turn 35, I’m from Cardiff
• What DPO (days post ovulation) are you!? I think I’m 15 dpo, I’m 4+3 according to one of the apps I’ve got
• Any weird symptoms!?? Nothing really, the cramps seem to be easing. I’m quite bloated in the mornings, my boobs are really hurting and don’t have much of an appetite but that’s about it

Hi ladies,

First day back to work today, I’m shattered 😴😴😴 but now can’t sleep... typical.

Thought I’d join in too:

Is this your first pregnancy!? This is number 3 🥰 DD is 9, DD is 3 and now this one, still can’t believe we fell on the first month after so long last time. I feel so so lucky, my heart truly goes out to those of you who have lost babies 😢

• How old are you/where you from? I'm 29 from Northamptonshire
• What DPO (days post ovulation)(days post ovulation)days post ovulation) are you!? I think around 16 dpo, 4 weeks + 2

• Any weird symptoms!?? I have tender boobs, tiredness, I’m hungry but then feel so full afterwards, really bloated, struggling to go off to sleep too.

I've had quite bad waives of cramp for the past week and I've just noticed a tiny bit of pink spotting. I don't know what to do :(

• Is this your first pregnancy!? My third. I had an early termination when I was younger. I hate to admit it when so many lovely ladies have lost little ones, I was just so young and circumstances weren't right. I have a 2.5 year old girl too ❤️
• How old are you/where from? 26 from cheshire
• What DPO are you!? 22 DPO (5+1-2)
• Any weird symptoms!?? Sore boobs, minor dizzy spells, cramping, fatigue and major anxiety (☹️)

@Justkeepswimming91 Hey. Spotting is usually normal..as its a sign of implantation. its only when you see 'period blood' should you worry. How far gone are you? Xx

@Tmemily Hello fellow Cheshire buddy! Dont feel bad...the timing wasn't right before. Im also super anxious..i think i will be daily until the next 9 months 🤣

@MrsBlue1986 only 5+2 :(

@Justkeepswimming91 Hey try not to worry, a bit of spotting early on is normal (so i was told by the Early Pregnancy Unit last time i miscarried in April... ) its only when you have more blood and severe cramps. I would say if i were you, take another pregnancy test anyway.. or keep an eye on it. You can always call your local EPU for advice if youre really worrying xx

@MrsBlue1986 ah yey! for some reason I always feel like there's never any northerners on these forums!

and oh god definitely. I was anxious last time but this is a whole new feeling! I had an anterior placenta with my girl, which made it so hard to feel kicks. I basically spent 90% of my life asking the hospital to monitor me because I was so scared that she wasn't moving! I got induced early in the end (probably because the midwives had enough of me 🤪).

There's a few things going on with my side of the family at the minute, which are stressing me out and generally making me feel quite down... Then I'm stressing out about stressing out and it affecting the baby. I feel like that might have something to do with the added anxiety.

I've learnt to accept that worry is a part of my life now, as it didn't go away when DD was born 🙈

@MrsBlue1986 I just took a cb weeks and it came up 3+ which I think would right.

I don't think anyone ever tells you how horrible the anxiety of early pregnancy is. I thought I'd be skipping about all happy (very naive I know)

@MrsBlue1986 i'm so sorry for your April loss :(

Hi all

Do you mind a late joiner?

I got my BFP a few weeks ago after years of trying and a failed IVF. This was my second go at IVF and as you can tell by my name, age wasn’t on my side . It will be my first pregnancy . App predicts due date 1st March so I think I’m exactly the same stage as you OP @Kangaroo77 ..... we are 5 +2 today , soon to be 5+3 ( I seem to be counting down the clock obsessively so I can get to the first milestone of early scan with the clinic which is on the 11th July.

I’m so excited but very anxious, especially this being my first and my age . I am going to have to remortgage my house to pay for the clear blue tests I’m going through . I’m worried as I believe I should have the 3+ pregnant window come up but still am showing the 2-3 weeks . ..... anyone else experiencing this?

Also - no symptoms. I don’t want to be sick but I think the reassurance would help me. It’s a catch 22.

@Kangaroo77 do you have any symptoms ?

__**- Is this your first pregnancy? No, I have a 5 year old.

• How old are you/where from? I’m 34 and I’m from York, North Yorkshire
• What DPO are you!? Not sure what this means but I’m about 5-6 weeks I think!!
• Any weird symptoms!??

Yes, I’ve started feeling sick (I was sick last night) headaches, aching boobs. The all day nausea has begun again ;.)

I’m an EX primary school teacher too!!! Work as a Nursery assistant now and I’m probably the most North I would imagine @Tmemily and @MrsBlue1986

Has anybody got any special remedies for the burping and heartburn??! It’s began with a venegeance again

@helsbubble17 Gaviscon is your friend!

Hey everyone. Looks like mine was a CP! AF appears to have arrived fully today after spotting yesterday (was due today)
Dont think I'm going to test early again, especially when the lines are so strong, and a digital confirmed it, I honestly thought this was it 😭
Good luck everyone!x

@Spinksy9 oh no, I am so sorry!!! I know no words can help but thinking about you!

@AuntieR456 I’m a civil servant too 🙂

@MrsBlue1986 Great idea!!

• is it your first pregnancy!? Yes and very anxious :)
• How old are you/where from? I'm 29 and from Nottingham
• What DPO (days post ovulation are you)? Not sure now but according to dates I am 4+3.
• Any weird symptoms!? I all of a sudden hate coffee, which started around ovulation! Lots of cramps and lower back ache, terrible spotty face, on-off nausea but nothing major and I’m exhausted constantly!!

Morning everyone!

I got super emotional when my puppy came to me this morning to cuddle. He is very affectionate

Morning all!

So this morning i took my first CB digital and it said pregnant 1-2 weeks because Today is officially AF day, so im hoping to god it doesn't come haha!!

Woke up with tender bbs only and a little nauseous. How is everyone else!?

@SK2970 omg id hate to hate coffee! Were not supposed to drink much caffeine now are we either 😭

@Tmemily hey im sorry you're having other stresses right now..thats the last thing you need. Its difficult sometimes isn't it.. im quite an anxious person anyway... and my miscarrisge in April has made me even more alert. But probably keeping me a bit grounded also. Not getting excited, or trying not to, just yet. Its so difficult though!

Has anyone told anyone yet ?
If not, when are you waiting to tell people?
We are seeing my Husbands parents this weekend, they like a drink, and theyre defo gonna suspect if im not drinking 😭🤣 xx
