Anyone else expecting their first child in November? So excited, yet nervous at the same time.

Morning ladies!

Please can I join? Feeling very lucky to have BFP on Wednesday and testing again tonight. Online puts me at 4 + 2 and due 24th November!

@Vickster2002 sorry to hear you’re having a rough day. I’m sure you know this but apparently cramping is pretty normal in early pregnancy - I’ve had it most days so far. In fact, none today which makes me freak out a little! Hope you start to feel a bit better soon x

@glow92

Hi girls, I'm 6+6 and having allllll the symptoms! Might be pushed back a week due to late ovulation. Gone off nearly all food the last 2 days which hasn't been fun. Congratulations all 💜.
Hi, welcome and congratulations!! I've really not been hungry. Which is not what I was expecting! Hope you get your appetite back xx

@Vickster2002 my boobs have hurt a lot on and off and weirdly I had nosebleeds almost daily since ovulation which is what actually made me take the test. A few cramp twinges. How about you?

Cinderellashoes · 19/03/2021 16:21

I’ve got sinusitis following a cold and obviously can’t take any of the usual medication apart from paracetamol. I’ve also had a terrible upset tummy since before my bfp. The only food I fancy is anything COLD especially salads full of beans and quinoa etc which is doing nothing for my tummy Sad feeling pretty awful today with my sinuses and have a lovely 2 year old and 6 year old to take care of Grin

Hi everyone hope you don't mind me joining, I'm 6+1 and it's my first pregnancy, I could burst I'm so happy Smile trying to stay level headed as it's early days, but I'm really excited xx

pineapple2021 · 20/03/2021 08:56

It's so hard not to worry isn't jt..... anyone else not really had symptoms except boobs hurt? I get occasional cramp twinges but mainly at night.

Floryella · 20/03/2021 09:12

Me too @pineapple2021 I wish I had more symptoms so I felt more pregnant! Sure I’ll be eating my words once they arrive though Smile

Mariex1989 · 20/03/2021 09:29

@pineapple2021 I’m with you on that too. Barely any symptoms at all, boobs aren’t even that sore (yet), few twinges here and there and the only other thing is I’m suuuuper thirsty ALL the time xx

DizSquiz · 20/03/2021 10:14

@pineapple2021 I'm the same. Just the sore boobs for me, sometimes get very slight nausea but that's it

jazzpad · 20/03/2021 10:28

Any remedies for queasiness you guys can recommend? I've not actually been sick but I just feel low key hungover all day Blush

pineapple2021 · 20/03/2021 12:21

Ive heard ginger biscuits or ginger tea?!

Glad I'm not the only one. I'm doing stupid stuff like thinking my exercise leggings are too tight and I'll be doing damage or when I bend to do up my shoes haha. It's ridiculous as I know it's literally tiny right now!!

Anyone know if we're still allowed to use cleaning products like viakal?! Such a boring question. I feel I really prepared my head for finding out I was pregnant but now have no idea what I'm doing.

Hope the sinusitis is clearing up @cinderellashoes ! Have you tried steam to help clear it? Xxx

I'm using cleaning products, but making sure I use rubber gloves. For me the exhaustion is overpowering. Had to have a nap at 6pm last night.

Hi can I join please got my BFP yesterday so will be somewhere between 4+2/4+5. Even though we've been trying I nearly fell off the toilet seat with shock when that beautiful pink line came up within 30 seconds!!

This will be my first and I'll be honest I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing so any advice or shared knowledge will be massively appreciated.

@Mariex1989

Hey, please can I join? I got my BFP on Monday (still feels weird saying that!) and will be due around 22nd November. I don’t have the most regular cycles so that will probably change! How’s everyone feeling? xx
Hi mariex1989, welcome and congratulations!! How are you feeling?? Xx

Hi and congratulations!! Sleep bras and deeps breaths are my only bits of advice atm. And naps. I've been so tired the last couple of weeks xx

I've just been a little hungrier which I was putting down to be on a diet and slightly sore swollen breasts which I'd thought was just my new sports bra but then when aunt flo didn't turn up on Friday things started clicking into place.
I actually have an appointment with an endinocrologist on the 29th March to look at whether I have infertility issues so the news still hasn't quite sunk in. Although given that the OH is proudly strolling around in his superman tshirt today calling him self super sperm I think its definitely sunk in for him 😂

Vickster2002 · 21/03/2021 13:22

@haylbop my DH is so excited that his sperm found the mark 😅 aren't they funny?!

Crazybabylady14 · 21/03/2021 14:11

I second the sleep bras - wasn't expecting to need one so early but they're a god send! And OH is definitely strutting like a peacock - why do they do this?!

6+1 today and the nausea hit yesterday like a train and got told I look like 's**t'. Cheers I'm growing a person 🙄😂

Crazybabylady14 · 21/03/2021 14:13

Hasten to add the I look like... was from someone I work with. Not the OH. He would t risk his future baby making equipment!!

Haylbop · 21/03/2021 16:55

He's been out today and bought me box of vitamins an oversize hoodie and a Mickey mouse glass which he said is my new juice glass since my wine glass is retired for the next 9 months 😂. Meanwhile I'm complaining that I only went and bought some m&s bras last monday that no longer fit. They need to hurry up and reopen primark so I can have comfy boobs!

Just curious has anyone told anyone that they're pregnant yet?

Awww bless him! I've told 3 very close friends who are mums. I wanted to have a few I could chat to and sense check things with. Not planning to tell anyone else for a bit. You?
