Tentatively joining here. Had 4 first trimester miscarriages before having my DS at the beginning of last year. EPU will scan me fortnightly until 12 weeks. Fingers crossed for us all xx

Thank you @mrssunshinexxx

I'm so sorry about the loss of your mum ❤️

I had a successful VBAC for my 2nd. I'm glad I did it but parts of it did go wrong so I'm honestly not sure if I want to try again or have a ELCS this time xxx

mrssunshinexxx · 02/03/2021 11:44

Congratulations @babynov & @Unicorn25 that's great they are going to keep a close eye on you x

@bubblegeek22 thank you too, grief is awful burden to live with isn't it. Oh wow really would you PM me details please ? X

Unicorn25 · 02/03/2021 12:18

@mrssunshinexxx I'm hoping for a VBAC this time too xx

Moonstone12 · 02/03/2021 12:27

@mrssunshinexxx I'm so Sorry to hear about your mum xxx I'm really recognising your user name and I wonder if you were on ttc boards I was on back in 2019?

No symptoms here apart from extreme tiredness and I'm constantly hungry but don't fancy anything to eat 😂 I'll be 4 weeks tomorrow or Thursday I think (af due around then) xx

MumofOne93 · 02/03/2021 12:31

Hi ladies I've just joined over on the Facebook group please could you accept me ☺️

Also curious to know if anyone is early and experiencing menstrual like symptoms? Not massively painful but like the discomfort and pains I get before my period usually.

I've taken a bazillion tests and they're all positive but I'm still convinced AF is going to arrive 🤦‍♀️

mrssunshinexxx · 02/03/2021 12:36

I recognise your name too @Moonstone12
Thank you it's been truly awful and still is :(
Is this dc 1 or 2 for you? What's your gap if second ?

@Unicorn25 are you in fb group? I'm going to make a post about anyone hoping for a VBAC then it might be easier to discuss x

Moonstone12 · 02/03/2021 12:46

@mrssunshinexxx it will be no5! I've got 16yrs, 15yrs, 9yrs and 10 months 😂

MummyofGiddiGirl · 02/03/2021 13:07

CA0382412 · 02/03/2021 13:33

Hey,

First timer here and 4 weeks 2 days today. have my first MW appointment tomorrow and nervous for it, any tips on questions I should be asking?

Due date is 7th November :). Keeping fingers crossed for a smooth ride although constant nausea is interfering with my eating at the moment!

mrssunshinexxx · 02/03/2021 13:43

I think I'm talking to you on the fb group?? @Moonstone12

Moonstone12 · 02/03/2021 14:09

ker89 · 02/03/2021 14:24

Hey ladies! Can I join?
I think I'm around 4/5 weeks.. not planned so still in shock but excited too. I have an almost 1 year old as well.. 😳😁 I haven't rang the docs yet. Hoping I can have the same midwife! How is everyone doing?
Xxxx

mrssunshinexxx · 02/03/2021 14:35

Hi @ker89 congratulations! If you scroll down abit someone has made a fb group too if you are interested. My lo is just turned 8 months 😉

Grace185 · 02/03/2021 17:40

Hey everyone. Very cautiously joining and about 5 weeks today. This is no 1 and have no reason to be panicking but I just keep thinking of bad things. I’ve had a lot of medical stuff happen to my (nothing to do with ttc just head stuff) that doctors said we’re practically impossible so I guess I’m just used to being the tiny percentage where things go wrong. Anyway, trying to be possible and naturally am a happy person and looking forward to getting to know you all!!

mrssunshinexxx · 02/03/2021 17:49

@Grace185 🥰

babynov · 03/03/2021 11:48

Does anyone not 'feel' pregnant? I have been feeling a bit sick (might be in my head) and boobs were sore but I just feel exactly the same.

Very early days here - 4.5 weeks!

Nnovember · 03/03/2021 12:34

@babynov I feel very very normal/not pregnant. Last time I had symptoms from 7 weeks but that hasn't stopped me from worrying though.

treesall · 03/03/2021 12:44

@babynov I have zero symptoms. I was very tired about a week ago, but pretty fine now. No boob tenderness at all which is what is worrying me. With my only successful pregnancy i had really sore boobs as soon as I got my bfp. Hopefully it's just a different pregnancy and different (no!) symptoms. I didn't get nausea until 7 weeks before.

babynov · 03/03/2021 12:57

@treesall fingers crossed for us!

Just read your previous intro - wishing you lots of luck. Maybe we should make the most of feeling good Grin

Garman · 03/03/2021 14:51

It's very normal to feel not a whole lot or anything different at this early stage, but having said that I've felt off since before or soon after my bfp on my other 3 pregnancies and this time I literally have no symptoms other than a missed period which feels very strange based on all my experiences to date. I don't mind it though, it's helping me to not think too much about this and is definitely better than 24/7 unrelenting nausea from 4 weeks!

treesall · 03/03/2021 21:35

Having said I have no symptoms I have started with quite strong period pain, both in my tummy and lower back. I know I had this a bit with my first pregnancy and it was just normal but this feels stronger and it's come on very suddenly so I'm really hoping it's not another miscarriage starting.Confused

babynov · 03/03/2021 21:46

@treesall hope everything is ok and nothing to worry about

babynov · 04/03/2021 14:23

How are you feeling @treesall ?

My boobs are rock solid today. Look like I've had a boob job 😭 scared of them getting ginormous

treesall · 04/03/2021 14:51

Thanks for asking @babynov

But worried to be honest. My cheapie tests seem to be getting lighter. (Bottom two are from middle of the day today but with v concentrated pee, the one above was fmu, and above that is fmu wash day). Not much I can do about it but that's been a bad sign with my last 2 losses. Just gotta wait it out and see.

How are you?
