I just found out I’m pregnant with my first baby too! I believe my due date is August 31. I’ve been awake 1-3 am too, was sick/nauseous once last week but it hasn’t come back, and have a little cramping/pulling feeling in uterus.

BananaHammock23 · 29/12/2020 16:20

Has anyone else found their sickness goes on and off? I've been feeling so nauseous then the past few days not really at all... I'm 7+4 now. It worries me when I don't have symptoms! But I'm sure I'll regret saying that when I'm sick as a dog in a few weeks.

We have our first scan in a week, I'll be 8+4 so really hoping to see something in there!

Allicit · 29/12/2020 19:52

I'm 5+2 and feeling the same! I almost wish I felt a little worse so I could get my head around it being real! We have told our parents and best friend, felt like it made sense for us (although I get why people might choose not to) it helped with it feeling more real!

Allicit · 29/12/2020 19:53

I've had some on/off sickness and cramping and tiredness. I worry when it's there and I worry when it's not!

SAHX · 29/12/2020 20:42

@Allicit haha I’m the same worry when it’s there worry when it’s not, when I get cramping I’m like omg what if it’s something bad blah blah like monitoring it like crazy because you hear all these bloody story’s then when nothings there I’m like great everything’s stopped 😂 nut job,

Congratulations everyone!
I’m 6 weeks today
First scan booked for 7+4 weeks as I want to make sure everything’s in the right place and growing ❤️ Big love to everyone

Allsorts24 · 29/12/2020 21:26

Got a very unexpected BFP today. I'm not sure of dates at all but think I'm 5 weeks or more. This will be baby 3, we have two girls 5 and 20mths.

Is there a Facebook group going for August yet?

melly76x · 29/12/2020 23:21

Is the average price for an early scan around £60/£70?

Cordial11 · 30/12/2020 02:04

Hello ladies! I have found out we are having a suprise first. Not UK based .

Just had blood results and have 5000 hcg. Looking like 6+5 based on last period (however they are unpredictable ) getting and early scan next week due to health issues and also quite the norm here.

No sickness, a little nauseous
Awake 1-3 am (think it's worry)
So so so so tired!!!!

Hope everyone's well today Smile

NikkiD88 · 31/12/2020 17:13

Hi ladies little update.

I went for the follow up scan today and my gestational sac had quadrupled in size but still no view of baby. We saw a yolk sac but I was dated at 5w 6 days. Was quite disappointed as I really thought I'd see a little heartbeat, but the sonographer wasn't worried at all and said that's exactly what she'd expect from last week and at this stage. And it's a very old machine... so another follow up in 2 weeks, hopefully we'll see much much more at this stage 🤞🏼

Milligan85 · 01/01/2021 14:23

Hi guys I'm due august 29th going by my LMP. I'm 5weeks and 5days today! I have three DC but I've experienced two mmc in the past and one mc (in September) 😣
From the get go I've had really sore boobs and bloated tummy and just feeling pregnant! This morning I woke and my boobs arnt as sore anymore and I get the feeling I feel different! Am I being paranoid? I'm worried my levels are dropping. Has anybody else's symptoms faded and everything's been ok? Lots of love a worried mummy

mommyofone2019 · 01/01/2021 15:10

I've not really had any symptoms at all. Just tiredness but keep putting that down to the time of year - being so busy/hectic and having a 16 month old! Had the odd wave of nausea first thing but apart from that nothing. I'm majorly bloated too but agai not sure if that's just to over indulging over the Xmas period 😂

I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow. 2 more weeks until our private scan. So excited but so nervous.

I feel dreadful at the moment. Think I have a bit of a cold too so not helping. Cramps, sore boobs, constantly tired, very nauseas but haven't been sick, really feeling it! I'm around 7+4 now I think, really tempted to book an early scan not sure what keeps putting me off

sophia0 · 01/01/2021 17:40

I'm about 7 weeks 3 days not really had much symptoms been tired and felt queasy but could put that down to been busy over xmas. I've got a private scan booked for next Friday,

mommyofone2019 · 01/01/2021 20:19

Can't wait to see everyone's private scans 😍

hi I'm new, hope it's okay to join ☺️ found out I was pregnant on Sunday, from my workings out I think I'm due 29th Aug but I've not seen a midwife yet & this is my first pregnancy so I'm pretty clueless 😂 feeling very anxious. hope everyone is doing okay xx

katie416 · 01/01/2021 21:15

@Allicit just reading further back it seems we're due same day & I'm feeling exact same (terrified) as this is my first baby & pregnancy. feeling the same about the docs, never got to speak to a GP, the receptionist has referred me to a midwife but said I probably won't hear anything from them until I'm about 8 weeks 😩 I know that's only 2 weeks away but it seems so long & I could really do with some reassurance. it's nice to be able to come on here & see that others are in the same boat x

Welcome you! I'm 29th august too 🙂 date not definite yet but I've a scan next Friday to confirm. Congratulations to you! Every woman feels anxious but fry turn that into excitement and roll with it. Easier said than done. Let's do this together 😘😘😘
mommyofone2019 · 02/01/2021 08:47

@Milligan85 @katie416 I'm 28th august! Officially 6 weeks today and have my private scan in 2 weeks. According to my app baby is the size of a blueberry 🥺

Milligan85 · 02/01/2021 08:56

@mommyofone2019 ahh I love the app too. This is acc my 7th pregnancy all together and I still question everything and act as though I've never had s child before! 😆 I think probably with the MCs it makes anxious. I'd love to see how your scan went, mine is next Friday I'll be 6w 5d. Just making sure everything is growing and where it should be. Hope your feeling OK? what an emotional rollercoaster. X

Milligan85 · 02/01/2021 08:58

I've just noticed I've said my scan is next Friday three times...I'm sure you all get it by now 🙈

Allicit · 02/01/2021 09:09

@katie416 ah we can be in it together! Bit much to get your head round isn't it!? I've got to call the doctors back as they didn't even refer me to the midwife. It is hard sitting with the not knowing and the long stretches of time but we can all keep each other company :)

Lemongrass9 · 02/01/2021 09:10

Hi to all the new people on here, I’ve been very quiet over past week or so, just enjoying some time off before getting back to work on Monday.

How is everyone feeling? I’m 6+1 today and feeling very tired and very nauseous 🤢 it’s taken me about 15mins to nibble my way through a single digestive biscuit which hasn’t really helped at all 😬.

Told my parents during the week which was lovely. Haven’t booked an early scan - not sure whether to or not. I’ve got a midwife appointment next Monday though, she called to say she would come to my house which thought was weird as were are tier 4 but I’m pleased it’s not in a clinic or over the phone. I’ll only be 7+3 but she said they were busy at the moment so best to get booked in early.

katie416 · 02/01/2021 09:39

@Milligan85 aww lovely to meet you! ☺️ I don't know whether to book an early scan for piece of mind or whether it is too early yet because I've read it can sometimes make the anxiety worse if it's too early & they can't find the heartbeat yet etc. I think it doesn't help that I'm not really having any symptoms. I have sore boobs but they seem
to feel worse as they day goes on, they're okay in a morning!! I was having cramps too which I believe are normal but they've gone away now. I'm worried when I have symptoms & I'm worried when I don't 😂 congrats too! 🥳 we can do this!! 🥰

@Allicit yes definitely! I know, especially as I really wasn't expecting the BFP 🙈 I put my late period down to the stress of Christmas, oh how wrong I was! 😂 omg no way. I thought they would have at least referred you. it is really difficult. I'm back to work on Monday so I'm hoping that might pass my time a little bit & take my mind off things

Smallbean27 · 02/01/2021 10:02

Hi guys, new to this thread. I think im around 7w, we have a private scan soon to get a more accurate date.
Is anyone else exhausted after exercise? Everytime i do something i always have to have a nap! I thought exercise was supposed to help 😂.
