@Jane7891 I think I’m due around 18th and I’ve had the same, some quite bad cramps once I get into bed! Reading this thread is really calmed me down though as I jumped to the worst conclusions straight away too! This is my first pregnancy too, so like you no idea what to expect! Smile

@rz2022 I almost feel like I don't have enough reassurance or proof to tell my parents yet haha! I haven't really had any symptoms either so all feels a bit strange at the minute 🙂

@93amy93 It's my first too so I'm with you on the clueless front! Hope your first scan goes well. I think I'll look into it a bit more myself.

Hope2022 · 22/06/2021 07:47

Hey everyone!
I’ve been reading you’re comments and thought I’d join in!
I’m due around 10th Feb so 6+4 maybe.. 😊
I’ve had previous miscarriage at 12 weeks so this first trimester is a long wait! I didn’t realise I’d miscarried on previous pregnancy so it’s adding to the anxiety..
anyhoo nearly 7 years of trying and symptoms seem to be very much present: achy boobs, sensitive nipples, nausea, light headed, tired.. so fingers crossed all is good! Have an early scan booked for next week.. I’ve made contact with drs via phone but no midwife contact yet..

Just an update - woke up at 6AM to a bloodbath and since I had two negatives yesterday before it happened I think it's safe to say I'm miscarrying/chemical pregnancy. I wish you guys all the best going forward, make some awesome babies, but for obvious reasons I'm bowing out.

I'm so sorry.Flowers I think I'm out this time too. I had cramping and bleeding (not just spotting) on Sunday, and my symptoms have gone. Will be confirmed tomorrow at an early scan.

@ownedbycats sorry to hear this!

@Trinacham sending some hope for tomorrow’s scan xx

NewMum0512 · 22/06/2021 09:58

I think I'm due towards the end of Feb / beginning of March. I still don't really think it's sunk in - but the bloating definitely has!!!

What pregnancy apps do you all use? I can't decide which one I like.

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 22/06/2021 10:16

@ownedbycats and @Trinacham I'm so sorry 😢 hope you're both okay xx

girlmummy25 · 22/06/2021 10:32

@ownedbycats im so sorry.
Im going to have the same thing I think. Im 20dpo and my FRER is now barely visible. Gutted.

Neom87 · 22/06/2021 11:22

@ownedbycats @Trinacham @girlmummy25 so sorry to hear your are going through this. I had an early MC Easter Bank hol and I'm back here again hoping for a sticky one this time, so don't lose hope.

Did anyone else struggling sleeping? I was a wake on and off so many times last night! I am only 14dpo, so I don't know if it's more anxiety and everything running through my head rather than the pregnancy itself.

ownedbycats · 22/06/2021 11:26

@trinacham @girlmummy25 fingers crossed that it isnt what you think... but solidarity and sympathy if it is.

I kind of feel relief in a way, bad as that sounds. That at least I can stop questioning now and accept and move on. But this is the first positive I've ever had and it hurt more than I thought it would. :(

ownedbycats · 22/06/2021 11:27

@neom87 fingers crossed for you this time. Hopefully we all get a sticky one in the end.

Enwi · 22/06/2021 11:39

Hi ladies, I’ll join too if that’s OK. EDD 10th February. Total surprise pregnancy after struggling to conceive in the past. I have a just turned 3 year old and a just turned 1 year old and I’m a little bit terrified to have another Blush I also have quite a history with MMC so I’m simultaneously praying for a good result, and wanting the whole situation to disappear Sad

Anyway, I’m so sorry to hear some of you have had bad news. I have a private scan booked for tomorrow evening and I should be 6+6 so I’d really like to see a heartbeat. Fingers crossed x

Jane7891 · 22/06/2021 11:53

I’m so sorry @ownedbycats and @Trinacham, I can’t imagine how you must be feeling but I’m sending you both all my love xxxx

feb2022 · 22/06/2021 12:07

@ownedbycats I'm so sorry my love sending you all my love xxx

feb2022 · 22/06/2021 12:08

@Trinacham I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for good news for you 😘🤞

feb2022 · 22/06/2021 12:09

@Enwi I'm in a similar boat to you mine turn 2&3 in December 2 months before I'm due 😅
I'm terrified but exited at the same time

Yes me too! Are you a SAHP? I’m a childminder and work with my partner, but financially it’s very daunting that half of our income will be taken up with our own children! I’m also so worried about no maternity leave this time. It seemed manageable with 1& 2 but this time I’m just not sure it is!

ButtercupBlue · 22/06/2021 13:39

Hi all. Hope it's OK for me to (tentatively) join?

I'm 4w3d pregnant. I've got two DC's in primary school and I've had 5 early losses including 2 MMC last year.

I'm trying desperately to keep myself busy and not overthink everything but obviously my history makes it that bit harder!

We've booked a private early scan for next Saturday when I'll be 6 weeks. We were debating not bothering as 3 of my losses I've seen a heartbeat on an early scan only to go back a couple of weeks later and it have stopped but in the end I decided I wouldn't handle the wait until 9 weeks (I lost the last two at around 8 weeks).

NHS due date calculator comes back with Feb 26th for me. I'm so desperately hoping to get that far this time!

Skybooks · 22/06/2021 14:33

Hi all, finally feel confident enough to post in here. I'm 6w2d so EDD of 14 feb. This is my 4th pregnancy but only on DS so very nervous off another loss.

I am super tired and have gone off hot drinks just like other times so hoping this is positive news.

DD will be 6 in Dec so I'm really hoping we will have some good news to tell him soon.

So sorry for the ladies with losses, it's a tough road and hang in there.

Skybooks · 22/06/2021 14:36

My post has auto corrected DC DS and DD I have 1 child a boy!

Jellybean023 · 22/06/2021 17:37

Hi ladies, can I join? I’ve just found out I’m expecting #2. I think I’m due around 21st Feb 2022.

choccrumpet · 22/06/2021 18:03

I'm so so sorry @ownedbycats @Trinacham @girlmummy25 hope you're all as okay as you can be.

@ownedbycats it does hit hard but allow yourself to be sad and to grieve if that feels right. I've had a few chemicals and each one feels different so allow yourself to feel whatever feels right, there's no wrong way of dealing with this xx

choccrumpet · 22/06/2021 18:05

@NewMum0512 I'm still using Flo as that was the one I used to track my cycle but alongside that I've downloaded Ovia pregnancy and Pregnancy +. I'm not sure if there's one app that's better than any of these so am trying a few out and I like different aspects of both / all 3.

PeonyBlushSuede · 22/06/2021 22:03

How is everyone doing with symptoms.
I'm 5+2 and exhaustion has kicked in this week. Getting home from work and so knackered - house looks a mess! Also getting lower back ache by end of the day.

I picked up a pregnancy pillow as was on sale in home bargains ... I'm in love!
