November 2021

Wanted to start a thread, albeit a little early... But want to chat to people in the same boat.
BFP 12dpo 2 days before AF due. Last period was 4th Feb which I think makes me 3+3, and due date about 10th November! First baby. Anyone else got their BFP? I know it's early days and anything can happen (I know that all too well) but not going to let that take away my excitement. Baby very much wanted after 2 years since mc.

@teachermam With my daughter, my symptoms didn't start until around 10 weeks (looking back as I found out with her at just shy of 12 weeks!). But this time round, only odd thing can contribute to possibly pregnancy is stomach cramps and more frequent headaches. Also, don't know how related it is, my skin is painfully dry and flakey on my face! Only started this week!

I wish I had patience

Hi all, can I join?

Got my positive test on Monday and according to NHS calculator am due on the 8th of November.

Have the sore boobs and bloating and also been having mild cramps and some twinging on my right hand side which I am trying not to panic about - is anyone else feeling the same?

This is my first time so don't really know what to expect and Dr wasn't overly helpful

Thanks

Yes they are getting darker, so I guess that’s what matters.. just not quite as quickly as I’d like!

I’m 5 weeks today and no symptoms yet. Some brownish discharge which I’ve had in all my pregnancies early on.

Shall we set up a private FB group?

I had a MMC a few years ago and all my symptoms carried on until I eventually lost the baby at 12 weeks. I had far less symptoms in my subsequent healthy and full term pregnancy. X

@teachermam yes I don't have many symptoms either! I am 5 weeks today. Been so up and down with worrying something is wrong. I definitely have subtle symptoms so maybe it'll come a bit later for us?
So far I have been getting a lot of back ache, not as bad as with my period but I definitely notice it's there. I also feel so tired but not sleepy...
going to bed the normal time but I just have no energy to do anything!

How do we set up a group?

I am having total paranoia today. My cheapie test lines look a bit lighter yesterday and today and whilst I know it doesn't definitely mean anything, it has been an indicator of my previous 2 losses. (Though I've also had a mmc where tests continued to darken etc so I know it's no guarantee).

I should be 5+2 today. Last week I got a 2-3weeks on Thursday so technically should get 3+ today but I'm leaving it til tomorrow in the hope I've got a better chance of seeing it. I'll relax a bit if I do see 3+. Hope everyone else is ok.

I can set up a private group on Facebook if needed? It's easier to send me a message, I can add you on Facebook as a friend, add to the group and then delete the friend request after. It means no one outside of this group will see the pregnancy group.

Sounds good

Fb group sounds good 😀

I still don’t get a bfp on ic’s, I keep checking!

Fab, I have just set one up, if you message me on here with a screen shot of your profile I can add you to the group x

I think the private messaging is only available by accessing the mumsnet website (not the app)

You could just put a link up here and make group private

It won't let me add the link unless it is visible to all. So just made it visible... hopefully the link will work

I can’t get the link to work

I'm the same as a lot here. Just over 4.5 weeks. Really sore boobs (they feel huge already 😭)

Feel sick on and off and have occasional pains on right side.

Seems similar to others here!

Facebook group

Hopefully this link works!

I’ve requested to join 😀 (Helen isn’t my real name😂)

I’ve actually changed my user name (previously Helen!!)

Hey I've requested to join my name is Jem

I really want to join the group but worried if it will be visible to my Facebook friends that I've joined it 🙈. Would that be the case?

@glow92 i did just think the same 😅 but I don't think it can be seen

@glow92 it's private so friends can't see it, it just means it can be searched in the main search bar but not on your page.

Just joined too!
