4 Weeks, First Pregnancy

Hi everyone, this is my first Mumsnet post. I have taken several (!) tests over the last few days and I am pregnant (according to ClearBlue it's 1-2 weeks, 4 weeks 2 days going by my last period). Is anyone else in the same boat? I know it's really early and I'm sure things can go wrong but I'm just so excited.

Hello! Exact same boat here! clear blue showing as 1-2 weeks (from conception) but I am 4w4d. Excited but also nervous!

Dolly0706 · 20/05/2021 14:33

Hey, similar story here. 5weeks today (3+ showing on clear blue from today). It’s my first and I’m soo happy but also trying not to get too excited as I know anything could happen, but it’s hard! I just want to tell everyone!

nellieee · 20/05/2021 15:54

Me! Even earlier at 3+6. Got a positive at 10dpo on Monday. Really hoping this one sticks around, as I miscarried in April. Can't believe it's happened so quickly, I've not even had a period yet since.

Here's to happy and healthy pregnancies!!

PoodleOodle · 22/05/2021 20:07

I'm 4+4! Hello gang :)

Megzj91 · 22/05/2021 21:45

Hi! I’m even earlier ! 3 weeks according to NHS but 1-2 weeks since conception. I’m not sure how to work out how many days as well Confused

DanniF02 · 22/05/2021 21:52

I’m 4+3. Just found out this evening. It doesn’t seem real, just yet!

ReginaaPhalange · 23/05/2021 18:33

Hey all. I'm 5wks today! Eek!!!

Threw all my cheap tests away as I was getting obsessed with line progression. It's not healthy behaviour!

I do get worried still and constantly checking my underwear to make sure all is ok 🤣

I have an early reassurance scan booked for 2 weeks on Wednesday so I'm praying all is ok for that!!

Tangfastic91 · 23/05/2021 18:42

Hi all! Would love to join. 4w+5d based on LMP. Got a 2-3 week at 4+1. Mild cramping every day for a week (thought it was AF coming on Monday).

ReginaaPhalange · 23/05/2021 18:51

@Tangfastic91 I'm still getting 1-2 weeks but not testing anymore!

On Friday I had terrible cramps so had a bath and they eased and since then it's all be fine!

Tangfastic91 · 23/05/2021 18:57

@ReginaaPhalange I've heard the dating isn't super accurate so I wouldnt worry. I have one CB left but won't be taking it because I don't want the anxiety if I don't get a +3w

This is first pregnancy for me and happened cycle 1, I thought it would take months so still a bit in shock. Panicking about everything that can go wrong, but trying to have the 'if it's meant to be it will be' mantra. Don't think I'll book an early scan

@Tangfastic91 This is exactly me! I'm almost 38, so we counted on TTC for ~6mth, but AF was late last week, and I'm NEVER late. Took 2 tests over the weekend, both immediately showed positive. DP and I are currently in a daze Confused - feels completely surreal (but also completely over the moon!)

DP is also slightly panicked coz we're midway through self-renovating our house. Haha - 2 DIY projects in the making Grin

Fraanne · 24/05/2021 12:41

Can I join this thread?! I’ve just found out today literally shocked and scared! I think I’m 4w+3 ?!

We have been trying for over a year and this is my first attempt on Clomid! I was so sure it was going to be BFN! I am so nervous but so bloody happy that the clomid worked 😂

spttc · 24/05/2021 12:49

Hi ladies I'm 4 weeks 1 day today. (10DPO). My first baby. TTC for 4 months. 35 years old. Just in utter shock we actually managed it 😂 But delighted too 🤰🏻💕 I tried a digital this morning with only 1 hour hold thinking it would be negative as I know they are less sensitive but it was positie so it's starting to feel real now 🤩💕

Tangfastic91 · 24/05/2021 12:55

@CityGirlintheCountry congrats! And hey, now you have an excuse to get out of helping 😂.

Hey @Fraanne and @spttc :)

CityGirlintheCountry · 24/05/2021 14:18

@Tangfastic91 thank you, and same to you! Grin

@Fraanne @spttc congrats! Fingers crossed for smooth, healthy 9 mths ahead for all of us Halo

Is everyone similarly due ~January 2022?

spttc · 24/05/2021 14:37

Thanks @Tangfastic91 & @CityGirlintheCountry
Yep I'm due Jan 30th 2022 🤩🤩🤩

CityGirlintheCountry · 24/05/2021 14:40

Someone posted this in one of the other forums, but I found it helpful to read up about the various tests to be more informed during the midwife appointments. Sharing in case anyone else finds it useful :)

I got my positive today! Think I must be 3 weeks, 4 days, going by the start of my period. Going to test with a clear blue digital to see how that dates it

Like @Tangfastic91 this is our first and first cycle too. Still in shock for sure, but a positive one!

Tangfastic91 · 25/05/2021 08:34

@trinacham congrats! Mad isn't it - happened to so many of my friends I thought I couldn't possibly be in the same group. Hope everyone has sticky babies :)

hlj0627 · 26/05/2021 14:06

I found yesterday I am 4 weeks pregnant after ttc for 4 months!

I feel excited but worried at the same time x

Same here with the 4 weeks! I am 4+3 today x
hlj0627 · 26/05/2021 20:57

Congratulations. I'm 4 weeks exactly! How are you feeling xx

thecapitalsunited · 26/05/2021 21:11

Just got a bfp today after 3.5 years of trying. I’m 4w4d if I’ve worked out the dates properly. DH and I had just about accepted that we were probably going to be childless so it feels like a massive bombshell.

Trinacham · 26/05/2021 21:14

Great to have others in the same boat! I will be 4 weeks tomorrow (going by my last period). How have you all been feeling? I get slight nausea when I wake up, and some very faint cramping.Smile

ttcisnteasy · 27/05/2021 05:12

Hi can I join? I believe I'm 3 weeks if I'm going off my last period been trying for awhile had a few chemicals! I'm so excited but soooooo nervous 😬 first round on clomid helped me this time! Any symptoms? 😂
