So I'm officially a crazy person! I'm off to buy more tests as just did one first thing this morning and it looks the same as it did two days ago and looks lighter than yesterday's. This is stressing me out particularly as scan and bloods tomorrow 🙈😫

@Hopesandrainbows hey which is the latest!? The bottom one? That looks pretty dark to me!? The HCG only rises every couple of days... xx

Hopesandrainbows · 02/07/2020 07:52

Yeah the bottom one xxx

Carmelova85 · 02/07/2020 07:56

@MrsBlue1986 we told both parents and husband’s sisters. Had a family get together on Saturday and I knew they will be suspicious as we always have a glass of wine with our meal. But I emphasised it’s super early days so they don’t get too attached to it. However I’m attached already 😂

Carmelova85 · 02/07/2020 07:58

@Hopesandrainbows looks a little bit like hide and seek but today is definitely a strong line!

Spinksy9 · 02/07/2020 08:05

@MrsBlue1986 I would hold off telling anyone. Reason being i got my digital 1-2 weeks on monday, AF due today. Starting spotting yesterday and FRER confirmed a fainter line than saturday and monday. This morning AF appears to be here I full flow. We nearly told our parents but luckily we didnt. If you can, wait it out a few weeks and book an early scan. I'm now in the process of cancelling my early scan but can honestly say it would have been so much worse having to tell our parents we are no longer pregnant.
Congratulations though and fingers crossed all goes healthy. Hope this doesn't scare you, just as I'm going through it now, thought I'd offer some advice.

@MrsBlue1986 I switched to decaf coffee a while ago but still hate that I now hate that, it was like a switch overnight!! Hope it comes back soon as love my morning coffee!!

We have told my parents, despite wanting to wait, I just needed to be able to talk to my mum about it all! I spend so much time with her that I felt I was being deceitful! It's a big risk as she so excited that I'm worried about her telling everybody!!

DH feels bad about not telling his mum yet, I'm not close to her at all so I don't feel the need to tell her yet but expect he will insist very soon!

Xx40yearsyoungxx · 02/07/2020 08:22

Hi all,

Is anyone over 5 weeks (5w3d) without ANY symptoms at all - not even sore boobs. Totally normal.

Also any reassurance from anyone at this stage still getting 2-3 weeks on clear blue? I did another test this morning ( I know , I know - stop testing !) but it’s still not progressing to 3+.

Thanks all
X

Thedot90 · 02/07/2020 08:37

Hello, I posted a couple of days ago with cramps and no bleeding at 5 weeks, but started bleeding yesterday morning (had noticed my boobs weren’t tender any more either), so currently waiting for it to stop so I can start to plan our next shot at ttc..! This was my first pregnancy, and I’m gutted, but had been realistic about chance of miscarriage, and everyone I’ve told has been so kind to me. Good luck to everyone xx

Jadeypie · 02/07/2020 08:38

Hi everyone can I join Smile I got my bfp two weeks ago today and omg it was a shock! Me and my oh have not been preventing for four years I say preventing because we didn't chart or actively try just went with the flow. I started to think it was never going to happen! This is our first and I am so excited I am 7 weeks and have my first appointment the 13th. Its nice to be able to join in for once instead of stalking for systoms 😂😂 and systoms Wow! I have a fair few ha xx

Kangaroo77 · 02/07/2020 08:41

@Spinksy9 I'm so sorry to read your CP news 😔. Best wishes, hugs and take care.

@Xx40yearsyoungxx congratulations!!! Another 40's mum 🤣🥳. I don't have many symptoms. I'm 5+3 and I've known for 2 weeks. I've got a scan next Tuesday to check there's some progression. I feel hungry, thirsty, a bit dizzy and a bit of bloating but I'm def eating more 🤭. What a journey you have been on. You must be so excited. Xxx

Jadeypie · 02/07/2020 08:42

Oh this is so sad @Thedot90 you sure it's not just a bleed because a period is due that somtimes happens? X

Firsttymmum · 02/07/2020 08:43

WOW guys , I have just spent the last hour catching up on the chat....so much newcomers.

Love that you are all doing this :

•Is this your first pregnancy!?
❤️Third technically but first pregnancy to stick (chemical pregnancy before ) ❤️
•How old are you/where from?
🌸 I'm 28 and live just outside Edinburgh🌸
•What DPO (days post ovulation) are you!?
💓 5+5 today I've stopped counting DPO (days post ovulation)💓
•Any weird symptoms!??
🤢 waves of sickness have just started, bloating was my first symptom this is when I knew I was pregnant. Sore boobs but other than that textbook really ! 🤢

Indigo89 · 02/07/2020 08:44

@Xx40yearsyoungxx I just came on to post the same.
I used my final CB just now, hoping to confirm 3+ weeks bit it still says 2-3.
I'm 6+2. Feeling light headed and slightly nauseous. Still tender boobs.
Now worrying and looking at booking an early scan.

Firsttymmum · 02/07/2020 08:45

@Spinksy9 sorry to hear you had a CP , worst thing ever because you get your hopes up and then boom. I said I wouldn’t test early again but with this pregnancy I just knew I was and got a faint line at 11DPO. It’s so hard not too test early when you are desperate for a baby!

Hope your ok , sending lots of love 💕💕🌸

Jadeypie · 02/07/2020 08:46

@Kangaroo77 I have been sooo thirsty and tired they was my first symptoms that made me think hmmm ha and now this week sickness is hitting me it goes if I eat so my heads constantly in the fridge 😂😂 x

Spinksy9 · 02/07/2020 08:47

@Xx40yearsyoungxx dont worry too much about that, everyone's HCG levels rise different and CB or any tests are meant to test progression 100% accurately.
Have you booked an early scan to reassure yourself?

Spinksy9 · 02/07/2020 08:49

@Firsttymmum I only tested as I needed to start anti inflammatories. Thought I better check so did.
I got strong positives on FRER at 10dpo and 12dpo. Not even faint. A digital confirmed 1-2 weeks on 12dpo. However yesterday's FRER was fainter and I started bleeding.
I am not testing early again, unless like this time it's for medical reasons x

Xx40yearsyoungxx · 02/07/2020 08:51

@indigo89 - I’m sure we are being anxious for no reason..... it’s hard to keep restrained though isn’t it ! When did the nausea start ? I’ve read a lot that the CB weeks indicator isn’t accurate so trying to rationalise it that way

@Kangaroo77 thanks ! Soooo excited but will feel better/ reassured when I get maybe one symptom !!

Xx40yearsyoungxx · 02/07/2020 08:55

@Spinksy9 - got an early scan on the 11th July
Seems ages away
Sorry to hear you have started bleeding A bit but from reading lots of forums this also seems quite common in the early stages and people go onto to have healthy babies x

Firsttymmum · 02/07/2020 08:59

@Spinksy9 I’m so sorry lovely . I had a faint line when I tested on my CP but that was when my period was due . It’s devastating...but don’t loose hope 💕

Firsttymmum · 02/07/2020 09:00

** lose

Firsttymmum · 02/07/2020 09:03

@Tecalina I see you are still suffering with the bloating , me too. Literally hasn’t went down.

Hope your feeling ok I’m starting to get nauseous now 🤢

Delta87 · 02/07/2020 09:12

I’m 5+7 (so... 6 weeks?) today and only noticed my boobs were tender when I gave my husband a big hug. Otherwise I’ve got nothing- not even any fatigue!

It’s hard to reconcile but I keep trying to remember that my body knows what it’s doing and whatever is going on in there is totally out of my control. And frustratingly every single pregnancy is different! My mom was never Ill with my brother and didn’t get ill until week 9/10 with me. Easier said than done but try to relax- there’s no checklist for these things!

MrsBlue1986 · 02/07/2020 09:14

@Spinksy9 sorry to hear about your chemical. Its devastating I know. But, at least take away that you are able to get pregnant. Plus, it only took me 2 months to get pregnant again since my last chemical. They say you're more fertile. Hope you're ok xx
