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

We should have a running list of our EDD Grin

Rolopolo21 · 28/06/2021 11:40

Hi all!
Found out I was expecting and worked out to be March! But we did an early test before period. Due period today/tomorrow and have woken up with brown discharge? Everyone telling me
Not to worry and it’s implantation etc (two pregnancy tests were really strong). But I’m worried It’s the start of my period! Feel such a fool after telling my children I was pregnant.

Hi all I hope you don't mind me joining?

I'm 4wks today 🤞🏻keep expecting AF to show despite a BFP! This my first pregnancy (I'm 33).

Cramps subsided yesterday and I have no idea if it's a good thing? I keep seeing terrifying stories on here so half of me is expecting the worst.

I just don't know what to expect and I think that's half the problem!

Does anyone test after their BFP to see progression?

ohhisammi · 28/06/2021 14:08

Hi Ladies ♥️
Hope you don't mind me joining ?

I got my BFP this weekend after 4 Cycles of trying 🥰 I'm currently 4 + 3 according to the apps and due March 4th 2022.

I'm 30 and this is our first baby ♥️

So far symptoms have been sore nipples, tired and headaches.

SSH27 · 28/06/2021 14:08

@KayL1988 Omg me too! And I hate water. I've never been so hydrated in my life! And I can't go more than an hour without peeing! 🙈

ohhisammi · 28/06/2021 14:09

Yes @SareBear87 I've been testing with cheap tests that I had every day since I got my bfp ! I'm quite anxious too

extrababydust123 · 28/06/2021 14:13

@SareBear87 I tested almost every other day for about a week after my first bfp 😂 and then I left it for a bit once I was convinced I was pregnant! And today finally used my last CB digital and frer and got my 3+ weeks and dye stealer 🥰 I won’t test again now I don’t think they will progress anymore and I have spent more than enough on tests lately!

Is anybody else's libido raging? I seriously wanted to jump on my husband last night, but terrified something will go wrong and I'll start bleeding.

extrababydust123 · 28/06/2021 14:20

@CurlyNo2 my libido has stayed the same as before but I have been a little wary about actually dtd as I didn’t want anything to go wrong or have any bleeding etc. But I think sex is completely safe during pregnancy! X

SareBear87 · 28/06/2021 14:55

@ohhisammi @extrababydust123 I'm not sure if too or not. I didn't see much change from 12dpo to 14dpo and it really has stressed me out.

@KayL1988 @SSH27 YES! I'm drinking so much squash, I thought it was because I'd cut out my tea and coffee habit!!

extrababydust123 · 28/06/2021 15:22

@SareBear87 I didn’t see a change in my frer’s from 12 to 14dpo either which is why I decided to leave it a while and then got my dye stealer today. It can be affected by lots of things like how diluted your urine is for example so don’t worry too much. I just see it as if there’s 2 lines you’re definitely pregnant 😊

Upsideandundergarments · 28/06/2021 15:51

@KayL1988 totally get what you mean about feeling really thirsty. It was actually my first symptom! Before I'd even thought about testing I was getting freaked out as I felt so dehydrated. How weird.

I've submitted the electronic form that I was told to fill in and now waiting for a call to book in the first appointment. I just want a medical person to tell me it's really happening now.

KayL1988 · 28/06/2021 16:09

@SSH27 @SareBear87 Glad it's not just me!!! I literally can't consume enough water.... i usually have to force myself to drink it but now all I can think about is my next water fix!

So nice to see you on here too @SareBear87 🥰🥰 .... I'm taking the cheapies too now to see line progression for a bit.... seeing it get darker makes me happy

CurlyNo2 · 28/06/2021 16:25

My clearblue digital test came today and confirmed it... Grin

Just sent this to my husband 💕

Due March 2022
KayL1988 · 28/06/2021 16:32

Ahh @Upsideandundergarments me too ... literally my first symptom! I tested because i woke up so dehydrated and thirsty and thought... may as well test if I'm dehydrated!!!
I've also submitted my form this morning too. My doctors said midwifery team don't usually book the appt in until 7/8 weeks. It's going to be a long wait hence the progression tests!!!

Has anyone else thought about paying for a private test first for reassurance???

CurlyNo2 · 28/06/2021 16:34

Yes I will be getting a early reassurance scan at 7 weeks privately. I paid for one with my son and it is we'll worth it for peace of mind x

extrababydust123 · 28/06/2021 16:50

I am getting a private test at 7 weeks for reassurance 😊 also congrats @CurlyNo2 it’s nice to see it in writing isn’t it!

Minnie296 · 28/06/2021 16:51

@KayL1988 yes I'll 100% be getting a early reassurance test I'm 5 weeks on Friday so I'll be booking for when I'm 7 weeks - 19th July onwards :) x

CurlyNo2 · 28/06/2021 17:12

Thank you @extrababydust123

I think there are quite a few of us with a EDD of 7 March 2022. I will also be 7 weeks on 19 July. I contacted the private clinic this morning and I can actually book in now for then but I feel like I'm jinxing myself, getting ahead of myself.

Minnie296 · 28/06/2021 17:21

Same I want to get to 6 weeks then I'll book something don't want to jinx anything.

We have a group on Facebook if anyone would like to join it's called March 2022 Mumsnet don't feel pressured just to keep each other going and support . Completely appreciate anyone not wanting to :) x

Lya4 · 28/06/2021 18:07

[quote CurlyNo2]@Lya4 I registered for my booking appointment last night via My Pregnancy Notes webpage. This is a national site that asks you questions, sends the notes to the hospital you choose and a midwife gets in touch to arrange your appointment
I would recommend it.[/quote]
Ooh thanks I'm going to look at that! Sounds fab!

I've tested every other day too to see progression. Seemed to be obsessed with seeing lines! 😆

Hi guys. I am 5w3d pregnant with my first. Didn't realise how anxious I would feel. Struggling to enjoy the fact. But really nice to read all your comments. I having awful symptoms already, nausea all day, lack of energy, dizzy.Confused

MissL85 · 28/06/2021 19:53

Decided to try a second test as some others had said they'd done a second one a few days later. I thought the second one might be darker as two days have passed but it looks slightly fainter. Don't know whether I'm reading into too much but don't want to have a 3rd miscarriage. Doctors are ringing me tomorrow and they're going to refer me for an early appointment at the EPAC clinic. I've already been tested for sticky blood syndrome but I do wonder about my progesterone levels as I have never got passed 5 weeks.

WhenShallIShare · 28/06/2021 19:59

Hi, can I join this too?
I’m 3+6, only got BFP on Saturday, due date 8th March 2022.
This is second baby, DD is 3.5 so will be 4 when this one arrives. Haven’t told her yet and don’t know when to 😳 Everything I read says wait till after 12 week scan but not sure I can wait that long!
Pregnancy with DD was horrendous so I’m really anxious this is gonna be the same. Had HG (and then GD and OC later on) so am scared it’s gonna be a repeat.
But obviously am so delighted and so excited by another baby 🥰
