Hi everyone!

There doesn’t seem to be a thread yet for July 2021, probably because most of you haven’t got your BFP yet! I got mine yesterday at 9DPO which was super early but had a pretty clear line on a FRER with afternoon urine, so confirmed with a digital. My due date is 4th July 2021 and I can’t wait for more of you to join me!! Feeling excited but a bit overwhelmed / not everything has sunk in yet. Also it’s still super early so I’m crossing my fingers (and legs!) that this little one sticks. It’s my first baby so I have no experience of any of this!

Hopefully see more of you in the next few days!!

Xx

Nausea has kicked in this morning Envy

4Minions2CallMyOwn · 13/11/2020 10:30

Congratulations to all the newest BFP’s! So happy for you all!

So I tested positive a week ago at 3 weeks pregnant (dating from LMP). I got 1-2 weeks on a CB digital on Saturday but have been worrying all week that it’s wrong or I’m not pregnant. It’s hard as we had a MMC in August so now I feel so worried. Anyway am exactly 4 weeks today (period is due) and did a CB digital just now hoping desperately and got 2-3 weeks! So feeling a bit happier and more reassured. I know it’s not much, but I guess at this point I’ll take whatever I can get. That is until symptoms kick in! All I have atm is the inability to sleep. That usually comes later lol

mariebaby3 · 13/11/2020 11:51

Morning all Smile

Is anyone else hyper aware of their symptoms right now? I'm still early but every morning I pretty much grope myself to make sure my boobs are still hurting. I question why I had a good nights sleep etc etc lol... feel like I'm going to drive myself mad! I know i should probably make the most of it before sickness etc kicks in though :)

EatPrayYoga · 13/11/2020 12:05

@4Minions2CallMyOwn I think a few of us have had difficulty sleeping. It is hard to relax after a loss. My first pregnancy ended in stillbirth at 40 weeks so whilst I am keen to get though the first trimester successfully, I think it will be difficult for us to relax until a healthy baby arrives.

@mariebaby3 I feel the same. I have definitely had symptoms but my sickness is quite miles at times I feel absolutely fine so it is a worry but remember some people don't know they're pregnant until late on as not everyone has severe sickness etc.

4Minions2CallMyOwn · 13/11/2020 12:09

@EatPrayYoga I’m so so sorry for what you’ve been though, I can’t imagine your loss Flowers

Yes it’s hard to relax, I know what will be will be though so just need to take it a day at a time

Thank you for your message

PeanutButterFalcon · 13/11/2020 12:12

@mariebaby3 I am the same. I keep worrying every time I don't feel sick/tired and keep poking my boobs. Seriously considering buying cheap tests so I can check regularly

Lille4 · 13/11/2020 12:53

Hey everyone. I need help. I started brown spotting today and I’m so devastated. I’m a complete bag of nerves because it all seems so familiar. I know bleeding could be 50/50 but I’m so down I don’t know what to do. Currently 4w 5days. Will I be able to see the gp if it’s this early???😢😢😢

MrsH2019 · 13/11/2020 13:03

@Lille4 please try not to worry. It is quite common to spot during early pregnancy. I have during this pregnancy and my last. Both times it was around when my period would of been due (the gp called it breakthrough bleeding). I know it’s a huge worry when you see blood in pregnancy. As long as it’s just spotting and you are not in pain, I would keep an eye on it. Xx

Lille4 · 13/11/2020 13:17

@MrsH2019 thanks for the kind words. How far gone are you now? And how long did it last?
With my son I didn’t have even a drop of blood once so every time I spot I think it’s going horribly wrong for me. Hopefully not. I’ll try to stay calm.

Im joining too! Got my BFP with DD 16/07/2021... 1 day after my only living childs DOB. Im taking it as a good omen! Smile

Having some pretty good symptoms- nausea all day, bloating and lower back ache. I had lots of light cramping the beginning of this week and have had light constipation too.

Fingers and toes crossed this is a sticky baby!

4Minions2CallMyOwn · 13/11/2020 16:21

@Lille4 yes spotting is very common, and brown is a good thing I believe. Well way better then bright red! I spotted during several of my pregnancies and they were all fine. Congratulations on your pregnancy! I know it’s so hard not to worry, I’m the same. Everything crossed that your baby is okay Flowers

@Holl1993 Congratulations! Great that you’re having symptoms and have a good omen Smile

TTCbabyBrown · 13/11/2020 16:45

Hi ladies
Got a BFP today after 2 consecutive miscarriages in the last year. We are so desperate for this to stick but so frightened to start this journey again.
I have been booked in for an EPU scan on the 8th of December so let's see if we make it that far. Have never got to 6 weeks previously.
Loving the positive vibes on here so far. Congratulations ladies.
Fingers crossed for us all 🥰❤🌈

Holl1993 · 13/11/2020 17:31

@TTCbabyBrown were in the exact same boat.. Best of luck to you x x x

Runnergirl1 · 13/11/2020 17:36

Hi Ladies may I join. Due 9th July although I think that will be a little out as I think I ovulated late. I had a mmc in July so I haven’t joined any new pregnancy groups as I’ve been so worried about it happening again. I’m 6+2 if I follow nhs but think I’m a little less like that. Can’t get an early reassurance scan through nhs because of Covid either so just have to ride it out and hope for the best x

TTCbabyBrown · 13/11/2020 17:39

We're all in this together! ❤

Runnergirl1 · 13/11/2020 17:39

Due 7th July sorry

strawberrycherryblossom · 13/11/2020 18:49

So nausea is now hitting me hard which is annoying but fine. One thing I didn't expect though, how much worse wearing a mask in the shop makes it. Practically ran round in fear of being sick! Anyone else?

stellarfox · 14/11/2020 06:31

Congratulations all the new bfps. Really hope that these pregnancies work out. In case it helps anyone else I like to check this miscarriage reassurance website which shows you every day the odds get a little better. datayze.com/miscarriage-chart

Holl1993 · 14/11/2020 06:37

Anyone else experiencing waking up earlier?! I cant sleep past 5.30!

Lille4 · 14/11/2020 06:57

Unfortunately it didn’t work out for me. I’ve had heavy bleeding (sorry tmi ) all night and I just know it’s over for me. Thanks everyone and I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you all. Praying you have a much better outcome than I did. I feel emotionally and physically drained but will carry on hope the next cycle i get my rainbow baby 🌈 good luck ladies xxx

Jilly1988 · 14/11/2020 06:57

I am having a proper panic day today. I'm 5+5 now and still absolutely no symptoms at all. I had a clear blue digital left and used it last night and it came up as 2-3 when I thought it should be 3+ by now. I have also been waking up early to pee each morning but today haven't needed to at all.

Hopefulmummie · 14/11/2020 07:10

@Jilly1988 I wouldn't worry I'm 5+3 and took a clear blue digital 2 days ago and it was 2-3 weeks but I done it evening time too. I done one this morning and got 3+ think it's better if you do it 1st pee.

I've no real symptoms either until last night when I was feeling so nauseous 😷 but feel ok this morning. Think it just comes and goes

Jilly1988 · 14/11/2020 07:24

@Hopefulmummie I did mine last night. I had one more left and I just gave in and used that this morning and it's just showed 3+ so made me feel a bit better. I should really be thankful for not feeling sick or having sore boobs.
