Thought I'd start a new thread for us expecting March 2022!

Congratulations!!

I'm 4+2 with my first, conceived via IVF. I have endo & adeno so pretty nervous. Have told hubby & my sis so far but it's hard keeping the excitement in! It's been a long TTC journey over the last 5 years...

Hope everyone is feeling well in these early days xx

@KayL1988 I’m the same! I had a blighted ovum last year though so I’m crying due to anxiety more than anything- just hopes it all works out this time! Xx

KayL1988 · 10/07/2021 12:28

Sorry about the BO @Mwilliams31

I think anxiety is such a trigger, fingers crossed all goes well for you this time xxx

I think my last crying outburst was triggered due to my favourite crisps being out of stock.

Mwilliams31 · 10/07/2021 12:36

@KayL1988 bless you - mine was because of a random advert last night! Hope everything goes well for you too xxx

MissL85 · 10/07/2021 12:37

@Mwilliams31 fingers and toes crossed for you this time.

Milly238 · 10/07/2021 12:39

@MissL85 I’m only 4 weeks but yes I’ve noticed this! My right boob aches far more too which is strange.

Mwilliams31 · 10/07/2021 12:40

@MissL85 thank you ❤️ Hope all goes well for you too x

MissL85 · 10/07/2021 12:44

@Mwilliams31 thank you. I'm taking every day as it comes.

hellointhere · 10/07/2021 13:15

@MissL85 my boobs are the same! They feel so firm and heavy first thing. I'm kind of fascinated by how quickly my body appears to be changing. I'm thinking about photographing my body everyday.

Lexber · 10/07/2021 13:40

Spotting again which is making me worried but then on the flip side I just attempted to eat a burger which usually I love and I managed Les Ethan half before I went off it and now feel meh..

This first few weeks is a nightmare!

Anyone else spotting?

It's hardly there and watery but as I have a liner on is looks so much more!

Lexber · 10/07/2021 13:46

*less than
No idea who Ethan is lol

abbs1 · 10/07/2021 13:49

Im 5 weeks and so bloated i dont fit in my jeggings. Ive been to 4 shops today looking for jeans but all dont fit or didnt have my size in stock. Any ideas of comfy clothes i can wear? Im literally wearing dungaree shorts at the moment everyday as its the only comfortable thing i have.

Cuwins · 10/07/2021 14:09

I’m feeling a bit more positive today as I’m 5+6 and have never got this far without some signs of bleeding and none currently.
Also did a CB digital and got 3+ weeks which I also never got before.
However I don’t want to get carried away as it could easily all still go wrong.
If still no sign of bleeding tomorrow I will book a early scan for next weekend.

firstimemamma · 10/07/2021 15:32

@Cuwins all sounds positive. I can't wait to book an early scan!

Does anyone know when you can book a scan from? Is it 6 weeks as in from day 1 of period or what you'd guess to be 6 weeks from conception?

MissL85 · 10/07/2021 16:26

@firstimemamma

I had one at 6 weeks from the start of my last period but I was referred to the EPAC by my doctors.

Cuwins · 10/07/2021 16:36

The company I am going to book with say 2 weeks from your first positive test I believe

Hi All,

I got my BFP last week at 8dpo (13dpo today).

This will be my second DC, DS is 13 months.

I've been exhausted the last few days, had to have a nap earlier this afternoon. My nausea kicked in at 6+3 last time and I'm DREADING it starting again 🙈 it was bad enough when I only had myself to worry about but now I have a toddler to look after too and I don't know how I'm going to cope 😩 anyone else in the same boat? X

firstimemamma · 10/07/2021 16:43

@Cuwins thanks.

@MissL85 yeah I had an early NHS scan with ds due to some bleeding but couldn't remember exactly how far along I was when I had it.

I'll phone up on Monday or Tuesday and see if they've got anything for the week after when ds is at nursery.

Equimum · 10/07/2021 18:30

I’m another one feeling exhausted. I fell asleep in front of the tele last night! I’m also feeling a bit queezy and needing to eat.

Bizarrely, I saw my friend this morning and she blurted out, ‘are you pregnant’? She knows I had a miscarriage, but hasn’t my even asked if we were thinking of trying again! When I asked why she was asking, she just said that she suddenly felt I was while she was driving over! So weird!

CurlyNo2 · 10/07/2021 19:20

The private scan I had with my son and what I'll have with this one, will only scan you from 7 weeks.

Mwilliams31 · 10/07/2021 19:35

Hi @CurlyNo2 mine is at 7+1, do you think that’s ok to see something? X

Sunny56 · 10/07/2021 19:38

@Equimum this happened to me too. My friend was over and I kept going for a wee a lot and she asked me "are you pregnant?", I kinda laughed and said I haven't had my transfer yet (I was getting ready for a frozen transfer, but fell naturally), she said "I don't know maybe something happened and you fell pregnant naturally" just brushed it off and changed the subject quickly 😃😃

Equimum · 10/07/2021 20:14

That’s so funny Sunny56. But how fantastic that you fell naturally when you were expecting to have to have embryo transfer. Congratulations!

Trinxsy · 10/07/2021 20:49

Oh gosh I feel shocking. Struggling to force anything down my throat and when I do I get awful gas and nausea. Didn't have any symptoms with my first apart from a missed period! It's catching up to me now. I want to crawl in a hole Confused

CurlyNo2 · 10/07/2021 20:51

@Mwilliams31

Hi *@CurlyNo2* mine is at 7+1, do you think that’s ok to see something? X
Yes I think so. I actually had a EPAU scan earlier with my son and they found a heartbeat, but was already booked in a week later at 7 weeks for a private one. It will probably be around 7-8 weeks when I arrange a other private scan x
Mwilliams31 · 10/07/2021 21:04

@CurlyNo2 thank you! Really hope everything is ok I’m so nervous 😬 xxx
