Anyone else with veeery early November positives who wants to hop on a thread and keep one another company?

I’ll start - I’m a MN regular posting under a new name. Took a test this morning and got a BFP! I already have DD(3) and last year we sadly lost her sibling to miscarriage - so I’m expecting a nervous nine months ahead. Sorest boobs ever and odd dreams the past few days but otherwise feeling ok (I know it’s very early though!). Oh, and DD gave me a hug yesterday and announced that there was a baby in my belly 🤦‍♀️

How are others getting on?

@Ttc2017 ah fantastic news. So happy for you, you've been in my thoughts all weekend x

@AlackAlasAlackaday wow amazing news, congratulations. How exciting for you x

HLMx · 23/03/2021 07:26

@Jax27 ah ok thank you. How many weeks will you be when you have your scan x

LikeSomeKindOfMadness · 23/03/2021 07:30

@AlackAlasAlackaday wow what a surprise! Has the shock settled a bit? I totally get your thoughts immediately going to things like cars and stuff.

@Ttc2017 I am so so pleased for you!

Welcome to everyone who has joined us recently!

I'm still feeling sick all the time although yesterday was slightly better. That immediately worried me obviously. Our scan is on the weekend so getting excited. I think I might then be 7+4 at least so hopefully we can see something. I also had another night of being awake for hours. Fun fun!

pineapple2021 · 23/03/2021 07:32

@AlackAlasAlackaday congratulations on the twins!

I've woken up today with only slightly sore boobs..... now going into panic as all of you seem to be feeling nauseous etc but I am only 4 + 6 I guess so early days.

Jax27 · 23/03/2021 08:15

@HLMx ill be 7+1 tomorrow, when is yours?

@pineapple2021 I still don’t really have that many symptoms, I had bad insomnia for 2 weeks but other than that, nothing really. Every pregnancy is different and every person is pregnant (that’s what I keep telling to myself anyway). Xx

DoveGreylove · 23/03/2021 10:28

So pleased for you @Ttc2017 Flowers that's wonderful news!!!

HLMx · 23/03/2021 10:29

@pineapple2021 that happened to me at around 4 weeks too. Had a few symptoms like blurred vision, fatigue, sore boobs, cramps, thirsty, metallic taste in my mouth, aversion to tea etc then woke up one day and bam...just the sore boobs. I guess it comes and goes which doesn't help the worry, when you suddenly just don't feel pregnant anymore but we have to stay positive x

@Jax27 I'm just 5 weeks today, I don't have anything booked scan wise. I might just wait until my midwife appointment which I will be 9 weeks and take things from there. Thank you for the info though and look fort to seeing how yours goes 🥰❤️

Alreadyinmypyjamas · 23/03/2021 11:22

I'm 6 weeks. I feel dreadful.

Can I join?

pineapple2021 · 23/03/2021 11:37

@Alreadyinmypyjamas ah welcome! Sickness?

LikeSomeKindOfMadness · 23/03/2021 11:56

@Alreadyinmypyjamas welcome! Feeling horrendous here too. We can have a pity party together.

Alreadyinmypyjamas · 23/03/2021 12:05

I have a cold and I'm also really nauseous. Not actually being sick yet. I had HG with my son. I'm terrified it will happen again.

My son is five next month. We weren't going to have another as I couldn't face going through it again but apparently we weren't careful enough.

How is everyone else feeling?

DizSquiz · 23/03/2021 12:07

Hi all, am 6+4 today and last night had a slight bit of pale pink when I wiped, has anyone else experienced similar around this time?

Also to add I haven't really had any symptoms only slight sore boobs and now is only the left one

Mancbear88 · 23/03/2021 12:11

@Alreadyinmypyjamas I keep telling my husband I don’t have any symptoms but I was eating cereal at 4:45am this morning as I was wide awake and starving 😂 is a cold a pregnancy symptom? my nose is constantly dripping! Fingers crossed you aren’t as ill this time.

If in doubt please go to an EPU. I'm sure it's fine though.

Hi! 5+4 here. My son is 3.5 and I had HG with him. Starting to feel more nauseous by the day and also terrified the HG will return, it's why we've waited this long before thinking of another. So feel your pain!
Maya000 · 23/03/2021 12:55

Yep I had spotting for a about a day or two at 7 weeks @DizSquiz I had no other symptoms apart from spotting with DD

In fact, I'm pretty confident we've already spoken on another thread about this! Nice to see you here

Ahh, @Annie1290 , my new best friend!

bages1977 · 23/03/2021 13:16

Hi everyone

I found out I was pregnant last Wednesday and have calculated a rough due date of 25 November.

I've got really sore boobs and also been experiencing some cramping. I've been told this is just everything moving about and stretching down there but still got a bit of pregnancy anxiety I think.

The 12 week scan seems so long away, I wish there was one earlier so that it would put my mind at rest!

Congratulations everyone ❤️

Jessi68 · 23/03/2021 13:29

@bages1977 time is almost at a complete standstill waiting for 12 weeks - doesn't help barely sleeping - worked out last night that I'll have been awake almost an extra week by 12 weeks, so even longer to wait! Hmm

Rmd123 · 23/03/2021 14:54

Good afternoon everyone! So my parents are going abroad on Friday for essential work for 2 weeks and my Mam is staying longer which means if I don't tell them before they go it will be the end of April before I can tell them. I'll be nearly 10 weeks then and would like to tell the 2 of them before then so I can hug them! I'm 5 weeks Thursday. Is that too early? I would like their support if god forbid anything went wrong but I just feel it's still very soon to tell them. I'm super close with my parents my Mam is like my best friend. This is the first grandchild on my side. Advice welcome!

Mrbay · 23/03/2021 14:59

@Mancbear88 - that's how I felt, but I'm now jumping in with 2 feet !

I've booked in with the midwife team now, due to having to have a planned c section, I'll be consultant led - anyone know what this means? Slightly sad that I can't have a vbirth but I just need to get my head around that it is best to have a healthy mum and baby then to get your 'dream' birth.

Welcome to all the newbies.

@happyavocado28 - DH and I have only told my boss and my BF - no one else knows yet. We've got a sign off scan with the IVF clinic on the 1st (I'll be 7 + 2, I think) then we'll tell parents. the rest of the family will be told after 12-weeks.

I'm glad that I am not the only one whose symptoms are coming and going. Anyone else got a weird appearance to their boobs? Not sure how to explain it but they both look like they are slightly flat from the top to my nipple, I've had a good feel around to make sure there isn't any lumps.

happyavocado28 · 23/03/2021 15:51

@Mrbay - congrats, I’m too worried to tell my boss yet!! I just got a new job so I’m so scared! But yeah, also thinking of telling family after scan too

@bages1977 congratulations! Wish there was something earlier, 12 weeks is too long to wait! I’m sure it will fly by

@Sammy12xx @regirayful I called the local midwife team today and they told me to call back around 7weeks

Alreadyinmypyjamas · 23/03/2021 15:58

@Mrbay how did your boss take the news?

I'm putting off telling mine as I've only been there a year.
