Continuing on from last thread I’m Hampshire.

Just cracked and ordered a two pack of digital tests on amazon... starting to feel anxious and really hoping it’s moved from 1-2 weeks

PurplePinkParade · 07/04/2021 14:40

Hello! 5 weeks today. Thread 2 already how exciting Grin

Current symptoms are achy boobs constantly, nausea and just constantly eating. Like, I can't stop eating Blush

If you want an app that measures bump pics week to week. I reccomend baby centre app. You can create a bumpie pic each week and then it can collage them into a video slideshow at the end

Hi all. Mind if I join? I got my bfp last week. So weird seeing two lines after over a year of trying. This week has dragged. I feel like time is going so slowly at the moment. It doesn't really feel real yet. I asked for an appointment with the GP but they said to register with the local midwives at 6 weeks so have a week and half to go until I get to talk to a medical professional. Maybe it will feel more real then.

Nice to meet you all Smile. I live in Sussex btw. Xxx

Thanks for the tag @Horehound

Graduated to this today! Delighted to see a progression from 2-3 to 3+. I was 5 weeks yesterday so bang on time. 🥳🥳

I’m a self confessed worrier about my first pregnancy and the prospect of "something" being wrong, so this is a big deal!

Hi everyone. Finally taking the plunge and joining you all: I got my BFP on Easter Sunday 🐣

I'm 4 weeks, 5 days today: it's an IVF pregnancy after four years of unexplained infertility and one failed round of IVF. If it wasn't for the night-time weeing and two positive tests I would think I was dreaming, it doesn't feel real at all!

I'm from Berkshire.

Horehound · 07/04/2021 16:13

Hello to all the newbies @mrspeanutbutter @SeaBridge congratulations!

That's great @TreeRoad, so reassuring.

Well last evening I started feeling really unwell. Just feeling sicky and exhausted. Then this morning I felt fine again but now it's coming over me again just feel like I'm gonna vom and that I need 12 hours sleep! Hope this is not Gona be a regular thing.
I filled in a form to register my pregnancy about two weeks ago and still not heard back. I called them on Friday and they said oh if your assigned midwife hasn't called you by Monday then call us back. I hate unorganised departments! So will call back when I get a minute.

Also my 19m old has started teething so is awake loads in the night and wants fed constantly :( I had managed to get him down with a cup of cosy milk for three nights in a row but last two nights he's been back to boob...I'm wanting to wean lol

Hi all!

I’ve been stalking this thread since I got my BFP (feels like I’ve known for ages because I tested early!) and feel brave enough to post after a chemical last cycle. I got a dye stealer on an internet cheapie yesterday so I’ve been on cloud 9 (pic attached so I can share the joy haha)

I’m not entirely sure but I think I was 5 weeks on Monday which gives me an EDD of 6th December!

This is baby #2 for me, I had awful nausea with DD and so far I haven’t had any but I’m constantly starving...I’ve never known this level of hunger! Need to slow down or I’ll be the size of a house come December! Just self-referred to my local hospital this morning so it’s all feeling very real now!

@lucea87 Ooh what did you do? 😂 I've had a few bitchy moments in the last few weeks. To be honest I feel like we're not responsible, it's the hormones, not us. 💁🏻‍♀️

Well I've shouted at the dog, but he did chew the dining room table quite badly 😂

Also shouted at my OH because there was too much stuff in the cupboard (all stuff I bought and insist is kept on said cupboard) and I couldn't find the stock cubes 🤷🏼‍♀️

Someone also told me on teams call today that I look completely worn out 🙃😂

I went for a early scan today 5W4D and I have a subchrionic haemorrhage. Really hoping it all goes ok and it absorbs

climbershell · 07/04/2021 17:51

Hi, I did a test this month, last period started 6th March, ovulation March 20, so 13dpo, so I guess 1month pregnant...

First pregnancy. Been off the pill a year, so so shattered - thought was just work, as I'm a gardener & work has been nuts. Tho when was falling asleep 10pm on the sofa last 2 nights, thought hmmmm maybe!

Excited, apprehensive, worried of mc! Telling partner when he gets home from work in an hour or so!

Why did the advise? I've had a little google and looks like you should be ok 🤞🏼

Hi everyone!

New to the thread, 4+3 today (I think). Got my BFP at 9dpo. Had a chemical last month at 4+1, hoping this will be my sticky Christmas baby. ❤️

Hi all. Posted a couple of days ago. Still can't quite believe it's happed after mmc last year at 12 week scan. My cycles have varied a lot each month since then. So could be 5 weeks could be 6. Going on lmp it's saying 30th November. Can I still stay? 😊

tuesday2am · 07/04/2021 20:58

Hi everyone 😊 Got my BFP two days ago at 10dpo. Been trying for DC2 for over a year now and had a chemical and an early miscarriage last year. Praying this is our sticky bean! Due date would be around 14th Dec... funny as DP is the 15th. 😁

climbershell · 08/04/2021 08:07

@tuesday2am it says my due date is around 14 Dec too. It hasn't quite sunk in yet, so used to seeing negatives! I mean, omg!!

I am so shattered. Busy time in my physical v tiring job (I run a gardening and lawn care business).. Just moved a few jobs from today until Sat coz just too long a day. I mean 10hr days next to no break non pregnant is tiring, but just part of the job this time of year, fully booked all month but from next month I will book in less

Horehound · 08/04/2021 08:18

@mrsawhite of course you can! I think my edd is 30 Nov too but not 100% sure.

I have my early scan on Sunday...so excited!
