Due November 2021 - anyone?

[AlackAlasAlackaday]

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?

Hi folks. Can I join too please? According to NHS app I am 5w+3 and have a due date of the 4th Nov. My first booking appointment is at 8w and scan at 13 weeks.

Symptoms so far:
Excruciatingly sore, larger and darker boobs
On off nausea, no sickness.
A few mild headaches.
So gassy!
Mild to moderate cramping 2-3 times throughout the day. Usually a short stabby pain which lasts seconds and goes away. This is usually on the left side but has been middle and right too... this worries me....it has been going on for the last week with not even the slightest sign of spotting so I am guessing it is round ligament pain from my body changing. Anyone else get this too?

This is my first pregnancy so new to every little sensation I'm like "is this normal??? Let's Google it!" So not good for anxiety...but managing to keep anxieties in check with hypnotherapy/relaxation recordings!

Yea I’ve had cramps and a few stabbing pains. They have been on the right hand side mostly, but left and centre too. No spotting so think is just body adjusting. I’m only 4w+4 so for me it’s so so early and first baby, I’m panicking about everything.

@MissDaniB congratulations! These symptoms are both reassuring and such a worry at the same time! My first as well and not being much later than yourself can totally relate to the panicking about everything

I am exactly the same. Due 9th nov according to website. Some very mild cramps now and again, mostly morning time but they aren’t painful. I have had the lightest spotting, once every couple of days and only once per day, which has worried me but a friend who is 6 weeks ahead said she had the same. As I’ve never experienced this before, I’m totally panicking about the most small things but just have to try and stay positive and hopeful that everything will work out fine. X

@Jax27 congrats on your bfp! We have the same due date and the same symptoms lol

@Pix89 I can totally relate to your anxiety. I would Google every symptom and I would always end up reading stories about mc. It really wasn't helpful and despite all the symptoms bright red bleeding etc it all worked out in the end. So, stay positive (I know it's easier said than done) and wishing you a healthy pregnancy!

Hi everyone -
I’m just wondering if anyone has had any experience with a late positive?! I should be 6/7 weeks pregnant but only got my first positive yesterday - (clear blue 1-2weeks)..
I had a miscarriage in October then next period didn’t come until January.. so I’m thinking I’ve maybe ovulated late..
really want to stay positive but a little concerned as I would be 13 days late before I finally got a positive result. X

@eoglove How sure are you on when you ovulated? Could be way off! And there are huge variations in how quickly HCG builds if you look at the charts or betabase. I hope things work out okay!

@eoglove Sorry just reread and you said you think you ovulated late - maybe your cycle is really off due to your mc in October! I'm so sorry to hear about your loss x

@squidlady
I’m just really hoping it’s going in the right direction!! With my previous period taking longer to come & then unsure when I ovulated - I’m just going to keep hoping!

Hi ladies!

Can I join? Positive test on Thursday 4th March but no clue on due date, first day of last period was 22nd Jan but I have really long cycles of 36-39 days! Must have ovulated around 14-16th Feb as we only managed to have sex on 13th Feb in the whole month as I’ve been so so so busy with work!

So I don’t know my exact date all the calculators online tell me I’m somewhere between 4+6 & 6+2! Anyway I think I am around first week of November - this wasn’t planned hence the no clue on dates and very shocked given we only had sex once that month - stars must have aligned!

Hope you are all well? My symptoms are;
Huge boobs, very swolllen and hard abs really achy.
Some mild cramps and occasional twinges
Slight nausea
Definitely feeling more tired but I’m so busy right now it could be a combo of everything.
Insomnia
Mouth watering too which is weird!

Lovely to read some positives after MC and TTC for a while too

Xx

Hi @Strawberry0998, congratulations! Sounds like you’re around 5 weeks if you know roughly when you conceived.

@Sunbird24

Hi *@Strawberry0998*, congratulations! Sounds like you’re around 5 weeks if you know roughly when you conceived.

I think around 5 weeks too! Thank you! My insomnia is very much alive and well in these early hours (I’m Uk!). X

I can’t seem to sleep through the night either, if I get to sleep at a sensible time I wake up at a stupid one...

Yep same here! Been awake since 4am and just cannot get back to sleep at all, hope this part ends soon enough - I am not the best person on no sleep 🙈

Oh god me too, I wake at 4am every night and never get back to sleep! What's that about?? Just lying here waiting for my alarm at 7 

@Strawberry0998 Welcome!! Congratulations! I have the mouth watering thing too, mouth constantly full of water...

I’m up at 4 am every morning too since I got my positive. Had zero symptoms until I got my positive test and now my body has gotten permissions to act up!

Sore and heavy boobs, lots of gas, stretching pains in my uterus, insomnia. No cravings yet though.

I'm up early every morning...I'd just like a good night's sleep but for some reason I keep waking up super early. Annoying

My alarm’s going off at 7 too. I should be trying to get back to sleep but feels like there’s no point now.

I’ve been wide awake from around 4:45/5am most days this week! It’s definitely a symptom for me, I normally love my bed and struggle to get out of it. Glad I’m not the only one though ladies. x

Mornkng all , im falling asleep at half 8 / 9 o clock but staying asleep is an issue I wake up consistently through the night. I'm up at 7 too .

I'm feeling nauseous a lot but managing to cope for the min o just hope it doesn't get worse vert sore boobs too especially nipples oh and I'm sick of having to wee already hahah x

Same as alex , nno and jax, it’s 4am as standard here. I’m utterly fed up and exhausted!

I am the same, I am 5 + 3 today and for the last week I have been up at 4/5am every day and can’t get back to sleep. Now I will proceed to yawn all day!
I had a late MMC last year at 12 weeks and have put off the self referral as I am sure something bad is going to happen. I will do it today but I said that on Friday. I don’t know why I can’t bring myself to do it? Good luck ladies x

@GSMCK I'm the same, had a mmc in December at 10 weeks, I'm 6 weeks now. I'm booking a gp appointment for next week and I wouldn't even be doing it then except that I've a minor medical procedure scheduled in 3 weeks and I need to check if it can still go ahead while pregnant. I have absolutely no desire to start the process of registering the pregnancy etc.

@Garman it is a horrible feeling isn’t it. I am totally blocking out I am pregnant, I have barely mentioned it since I got the positive test and I am moping around. My husband has tried to talk about it and I keep changing the subject. X

@GSMCK @Garman I don't want to do my referral either. I'm getting a scan at the EPU tomorrow following 3 mcs and the midwife said 2 weeks ago that I should complete the referral ASAP but I can't bear to because I don't want to have to call up and cancel the appointments that will come through automatically once I do the referral x
