@ttc94 exactly same dates as me & I had my last mc on 14 Feb, hope your doing OK x

TTC94 · 24/04/2021 19:15

@gizmo167 that’s very close to me too!

I’m okay. I’ve been paranoid today as I had some lower back pain and some cramps. But I seem okay again now.

I am just hoping and praying for a miracle. I can’t imagine how I’ll feel or cope if it ends in a miscarriage again.

How are you feeling?

Xx

@Cuddles21 @Pineapple87 I'm also due 21st def according to the midwives by LMP but Cos I ovulated hater I think it's more Christmas Day instead.

@Mosshead348 I hoped you stayed out in the garden, it's def safe, the sun doesn't have rays that penetrate your skin to harm the baby 🤣

@TakeYourFinalPosition 6+6 should get a heartbeat in a scan, we saw heartbeat at 6 weeks previously

Cuddles21 · 24/04/2021 21:58

Ladies very random question but I'm taking seven seas trying for a baby supplement which my GP said is OK for first trimester but it doesn't have any supplement for omega 3 fatty acids which from reading, seem to be important. Anyone have any advice on this? I'm not great on fish and would only eat fish fingers Grin

@gizmo167 my miscarriage started evening of 13th. Happy Valentine's indeed.

I got pregnant before my next period so due date is a bit difficult to determine but suspect 12-16th December. We just had sex every day once I stopped bleeding!

climbershell · 24/04/2021 22:04

@Cuddles21 I stopped taking my omega 3 when I found out I was pregnant, I read to do so. Just had a quick Google and it recommended starting at week 12. But now I'm confused because it said cod liver oil is bad because of retinol which has vitamin a, so I think (but not sure) that omega 3 without any source of vitamin a is ok

Cuddles21 · 24/04/2021 23:35

Thanks @climbershell think I'll ask then at next GP appointment and see what they say

Pineapple87 · 24/04/2021 23:53

I’m going by my lmp which was 16 March, I don’t know when I actually ovulated, I think it was between the 27th & second. I don’t understand it all? Help Xx

Thank you! Can’t deny a bit of anxiety this time around. But I doI have a good feeling about this one hopefully I’m right.

BrodieKD · 25/04/2021 07:28

Had a bit of a panic yesterday and had a small bleed. Fresh red blood but it went after one wipe and then stopped. Has anyone had any experience with this? I think I'll take it easy for a couple of days and if it happens again I'll get checked out. Still got a week until my early scan and I feel like it's going to be the longest week ever.

Lindzers83 · 25/04/2021 07:35

@Hxoxox immune wasn't stabbing more like a pinch and then cramping. Call you GP. I got an early scan and everything was fine x

apwilso · 25/04/2021 08:47

I'm due 21st December. Been brown spotting since I found out not loads just when I wipe and midwife said it's fine unless it turns red and cramps. Has anyone else experienced this? I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow

tuxedocat · 25/04/2021 08:51

Hi ladies, I got my 3+ on clear blue today ❤️ I’m 5 weeks exactly today, that makes sense right? The way they word it is that 3+ means you’re MORE than 5 weeks and now it’s making me worry about my dates 😂

climbershell · 25/04/2021 09:30

Has anyone else gone off tea? I usually have 5 or 6 cups a day, decaf all year, but OH bought me a cup today and don't even want a sip. And last week or so I have had maybe 1 and last few days zero

Firstbornunicorn · 25/04/2021 09:58

@apwilso I had that in my first pregnancy between 6 and 7 weeks. All was fine!

Firstbornunicorn · 25/04/2021 09:59

@tuxedocat I think that’s fine! I’m 5 weeks exactly as well, and I got 2-3 this morning, but you may have implanted or ovulated earlier.

apwilso · 25/04/2021 10:03

@Firstbornunicorn that's good to know. Really anxious at the minute!

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 10:08

Morning, I've woken up with stabbing pains this morning, enough to make me wince & say owwww for a good 5 mins & it woke DH.
I'm somewhere in between 5-6weeks

@Pineapple87 your dates are the same as mine, LMP 16th March but I think I ovulated around 2nd/3rd April so although the midwives think basically 6 weeks I think it's somewhere in the middle of 5/6weeks. I'm just going by what the midwives say until my dating scan

Cuddles21 · 25/04/2021 10:09

They always seem to date from LMP @Pineapple87 but I think when we have our scans they can date better, for example I think I ovulated on the 2nd, going by my opk anyway.

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 10:30

@Cuddles21 that's the same as me, I think 3rd so I think will be adjusted at the dating scan, has anyone else had stabbing stitch pains?

tuxedocat · 25/04/2021 10:37

@Firstbornunicorn thank you!

Do they date from ovulation then, instead of last period? I’m sure I ovulated on 3rd April so I’m intrigued in how it’ll work with dates, and I’m quite sure I implanted at 6dpo or there abouts.

2 weeks until my early scan(which I’m too chicken to book!)

Hxoxox · 25/04/2021 10:52

@Pineapple87 my LMP was 15th March it said on the Flo app my ov dates were around then aswell 27th-29th. It now says I'm 6 weeks today and I have my early scan next Sunday at 7 weeks. Now though I'm worried as if I ov later or implanted later I might be a lot earlier. I still have no symptoms and just don't feel pregnant 😞

Pineapple87 · 25/04/2021 10:55

Ahh I see, thanks for info, roll on the next 6 weeks for a scan, are you feeling really sick atm? I’ve been like it 4 days now, I haven’t actually been sick, it was horrendous with my first I was sick for 6 months I lost 2 stone.

Pineapple87 · 25/04/2021 10:59

Every one is different, I’ve had a lot of symptoms but could be cause my second, good luck with the scan let me know how you get on xx

Cumspe · 25/04/2021 11:17

Hope you are all doing well and welcome to any newbies.

I have had light pink spotting this morning but it seems to have stopped. Trying not to worry but I will see how it progresses today then call GP in the morning. @Firstbornunicorn your comment to apwilsoI is reassuring. I will be 7 weeks tomorrow with twins
