March 2021 babies

[Sussexbysea]

Hi everyone,

This is a second thread of March 2021 babies. I’ll add people as I go xx

Hello everyone! Glad to have found the new thread. I'm now 5 weeks and 3 days pregnant with DC#2. I would like to join the Facebook group but I like the anonymity of this while it's such early days and it's still a bit of a secret! If it suddenly goes quiet here, perhaps someone could send me details of the group and I'll bite the bullet. Otherwise, see you there at about 12 or 13 weeks!

@Jenw2018 Thinking of you. I am so sorry to hear this.

@Jenw2018 oh jen. Sending you lots of love and strength xx

@Headingtowardsforty hey lovely. I really hope that what you’ve been experiencing especially today is just a blip in this journey. Xx

Aww @Jenw2018 fingers crossed everything might still be ok. X

Oh @Jenw2018 I am so so sorry x

So sorry @Jenw2018, hope you’re ok x

@Jenw2018 so sorry lovely, hope you're okay xxx

@Sussexbysea thanks, at least I'll know tomorrow morning one way or the other. It's the not knowing that is doing my head in.

I hope you don't mind me joining! Due number 3 around March 25th

Welcome, @krj2608 - we have the same due date.

Hi everyone.
Just checking back in!
Can't believe the first thread is full!

@Jenw2018 thinking of you and sending virtual hugs.
Hope everyone with scans tomorrow are all ok xx

@Headingtowardsforty sending you lots of love!! Big hugs x

@Sh4mmy thanks, I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow x

@Jenw2018 I'm so very sorry to hear that. I have my fingers crossed for you xx

@Headingtowardsforty Sorry to hear what's been happening with you today. Like you say, at least you don't have long to wait once you wake up tomorrow morning. How many weeks will you be? I'll be 5+6 tomorrow and worried they won't be able to see anything other than the sac which will panic me! Was 6+1 when I went for private scan with DC1 and could see heartbeat, but a couple of days can make such a massive difference!

Can i join this one too? Im currently 4+4 with my first child and my current due date is 31st March 2021 x

Can i join this one too? Im currently 4+4 and down as 31st March 2021 due date. This will be my first child so pretty much google has become my new best friend lol x

Hi all, glad I found this thread as I was working up the courage to post on the first thread then realised I was too late!

I am 5 weeks pregnant today, found out Thursday. My estimated due date is 28th March - two days before my birthday!

This is my second pregnancy - I sadly had a miscarriage with my first back in January just before 7 weeks. It knocked me for six, and delaying TTC again due to coronavirus (DH and I decided to go for it at start of this month) was really impacting my mental health.

I’m trying to stay calm but obviously very nervous, particularly about the next few weeks.

Symptoms include going straight off coffee almost immediately (tbh, that was the first giveaway - I usually need coffee ASAP in the morning!), feeling tired, some mild cramping (hopefully due to implantation) and needing to pee a lot. No morning sickness yet and no sore boobs. Hoping these things kick in soon as I think it may help me to feel it’s actually happening.

Sending love and best wishes to you all and keeping my fingers crossed for anybody who has scans/appointments coming up soon. It’s a hard time and I really had no idea when I first fell pregnant all those months ago.

Thank you so much @Sussexbysea for starting this thread - it’s wonderful to hear from other women at a similar stage and I feel less alone than I have been feeling in recent months xxx

@bumblingalonghappily according to me I should be 8 weeks tomorrow, so from that point of view it is definitely far enough along for a heartbeat if all's okay. I have just woken up and feeling sick, but now not sure if that's nerves. Will update either way later.

@Headingtowardsforty hope everything goes well for you this morning.

Does anybody wake up in the morning with cramps that then ease off but come back later on. I'm not due to see the midwife until 11/08 who should then book me in for an early scan after a miscarriage in February but that seems like such a long time away at the minute.

@EmzG20 not necessarily when I wake up in the morning but I have mild cramps that come and go which are more like random twinges in different areas rather than period pain. These started around 4 weeks and are occasional now, so I’m hoping it was implantation and the uterus continuing to stretch. I actually can’t recall any such cramping at all in these early stages before my miscarriage so trying to keep positive that random cramps are our bodies doing what they need to do to prepare for a baby!

@Headingtowardsforty hope it all goes well at your scan today xxx

@Slat3

Hi, just to jump in and say there are no secret groups anymore, they are private and hidden. The March Mumsnet one has nearly 40 members and is private and hidden so no friends can see it

Hi @Slat3 is there a link you could share for the group? Would love to join!

@DSP21 Sorry, there is no link as you can’t see it (hidden from non members) the only way to join is to add me as a friend, then I’ll add you to the group & delete you.

If anyone wants to PM me I can send you a link to my Facebook as slightly outing

@Headingtowardsforty thinking of you this morning and keeping everything crossed for you xx
