Hello.

I'm due 4th February after getting a very faint line on Sunday, positive on an FRER Monday and now a 1-2 weeks on a clear blue yesterday.

I am in absolute shook as I have a 7 month old at home and was on the Non-hormonal coil.

I've found out super early,

Hey!

I am due 30th January 2022, but apparently first time mums are usually a little late, so I am possible going to be early Feb 2022!

Hi!

Yes, out of everyone who I knew having their first baby around the same time as mine, only me and 3 others were early. (Out of about 30 of us!)

And 2 were induced due to reduced movements. Congrats! Are you happy? xx

Hi Guys, I got my squinter of a BFP yesterday and another slightly less squinter this morning! My due date is 06 Feb. I’m still in shock as it took a while to conceive DC1 but this is our first proper cycle! We started TTC last month but I’d already missed ovulation 🙈 so this was cycle 1. It’s unbelievable!

@tierneytarny congrats !!! I was so sure my clear blue were indent or evap lines as I had to see them in the light that I didn't even think they were BFP.
So I was In shock when the FRER was positive !

This is my first cycle off the implant but on the coil. No tracking etc as wasn't TTCing as have a 7 month old. We DTD once the whole month as partner works away....

Now a BFP haha

It is crazy isn’t it?! I’m so so happy but yeah, just thought it’s take longer. My DH and I are both still in shock!

Wow, 2 under 18 months! You’ll be kept busy! How amazing will it be for them to be so close in age! They’ll be best friends!

Tabbycat92 · 28/05/2021 11:12

Hi I'm joining! Got a bfp on Monday 😊 due 5th Feb. Excited but nervous as suffered a miscarriage only 8 weeks ago. Terrified it'll happen again, but trying to stay as positive as possible

tierneytarny · 28/05/2021 11:49

Eeek welcome to the gang. I’ll keep everything crossed for you ❤️

[quote confusedandshocked94]@expectinglittlebear what are your symptoms so far? Xx[/quote]
I have been really bloated, and absolutely exhausted! I have also been getting IBS flare ups, super sensitive nipples and period-like cramps.

What about you? xx

Tabbycat92 · 28/05/2021 15:41

@expectinglittlebear I'm with you on the ibs flare ups. They've been awful!

@expectinglittlebear I'm not sure if it's pregnancy or if I'm poorly!

Blocked nose
Feeling exhausted
Achy legs
Achy jaw ??
Heartburn on the night time

@Tabbycat92 They're awful at the best of times aren't they! Let alone when they are coupled with period-like cramps too!

@confusedandshocked94 I am with you with the blocked nose too! Although it is strange, it doesn't quite feel like a cold, more like my nose is blocked / harder to breath through my nose (even after blowing it), if that makes sense? It is weird!

Tabbycat92 · 28/05/2021 16:29

@expectinglittlebear @confusedandshocked94 the blocked nose is probably down to pregnancy rhinitis. I get allergic rhinitis normally, and usually use a nasal decongestant every night, but not allowed it in pregnancy so I'm having to glamorously mouth breath at night 😂

tierneytarny · 28/05/2021 17:04

I’m with you with the IBS flare ups. Absolutely horrific the last few days!

Other than a true hankering for shellfish (which I usually hate - but the same happened in my last pregnancy) and very vivid dreams, I’ve not really notice any symptoms.

Tabbycat92 · 28/05/2021 17:12

My symptoms are generally the odd cramp, achey lower back, tingly boobs and darker nipples, and waking up every morning around 3/4am. Happened in my first pregnancy and in the one at the beginning of the year

Laufey023 · 30/05/2021 10:20

Hello!

I hope you won't mind if I join you, my due date is the 1st of February Smile This is my first pregnancy, I have quite a few health conditions so now I am really anxious about each and every cramp.
I have a few symptoms, sore boobs, cramps and I wake up at 6 am every single morning to go to pee Grin
Sorry about the mistakes in my posts, English is not my first language.

expectinglittlebear · 01/06/2021 11:18

Last few days I have been waking up every single night at 2/3am with a stomach ache. Having to sit on the loo for a good half an hour (sorry TMI) and then I can finally go, and then go back to bed and the ache goes away.

Any one else having issues with constipation and their digestive system too? I have had a few other symptoms, but the main one definitely seems to be my digestive system. This little one is causing all sorts of upset in there!

Tiredandobsessed · 01/06/2021 20:09

Hi all, can I jump on. I joined & stalked Mumsnet months ago but this is my first post. I'm 36, TTC for 15months for #1 We were told that we wouldn't conceive naturally due to numerous issues and put our IVF application in on Saturday, fast forward to this morning and got a BFP!! What a feeling ♥️ Apps say I'm 4 weeks today & due date is 4th Feb due to shorter cycles. Currently feel fine, no symptoms but I have no idea what to expect or what the hell to do to be honest. I know it's early but I just wanted to talk to others experiencing the same x

@Tiredandobsessed congrats! When we were TTCing our first, I had the blood tests for hormone levels on the Wednesday as I didn't think I was ovulating... I got my BFP the following Monday! Strange how things work.

Congrats though! Amazing xx

@expectinglittlebear yes! Feel like I'm about to burst (sorry TMI) and then it takes a good 45 minutes! Xx

@Laufey023 haha like a little alarm clock! Congratulations! It's so anxiety inducing isn't it the first 12 weeks

OP posts:
Tiredandobsessed · 01/06/2021 21:30

@confusedandshocked94 Thank you! I am so shocked but also so excited, OH is being alot more cautious. Think he knows when the shock settles I'll be a nightmare, he's had enough 2WW to endure 🤣

Trinacham · 01/06/2021 22:00

I'm due 4th Feb too! Got my positive Monday 24th. Couldn't believe it (especially as it was our first attempt!) so took another 2 tests a few days later.
Congratulations all! It's nice to have people to talk to in the same boat.

AmICrazy36 · 01/06/2021 22:03

Hi everyone ❤️

Tentively joining this thread... little surprise bfp yesterday/slightly more positive today I think! My due date would be around 5th Feb!
Bit of a surprise as my DD just turned 4 and she was a miracle baby with abit of help ❤️ So 4 years later and a little surprise and natural

So just popping saying hi everyone xx

tierneytarny · 01/06/2021 22:06

The nausea has kicked in properly. Very confused as it is so early but currently laid on the sofa crunching ice cubes 🙈 I’ve not felt great the last few days but the excitement is carrying me through. I didn’t feel like this with DC1 until 8 weeks ish so it feels very new.

Seem to have a lot of anxiety as well....constantly loo roll checking when I nip to the loo
