Due April 2022

[mummytoolive]

Hey,
Anyone else out there due April 2022.
I got my BFP at 10DPO yesterday. I already have a 6 month old daughter and it's my 4th pregnancy 🌈❤️

@chloehunt I've been testing every other day but I've only got one test left and I don't think I'll buy anymore

Ahh have you? Glad it's not just me! Yeah I won't buy any more either I don't think I've got a digital left which I'll use in 2 weeks in hope it says 3+

[quote Cheekymonkey3112]@chloehunt I did for ages and then eventually did stop. I decided thst the money I was spending could book me an extra scan. Xx[/quote]
That is so so true x

[quote Lalala1985]@chloehunt I did, and stopped once I ran out of tests. As tempting as it is I don't think it's very healthy. I feel like this is going to be ooooone long wait and it's so easy to worry. Best find something to distract yourself. Testing isn't going to stop you miscarrying. [/quote]
That's so true! Testing isn't going to change any outcome

@Motherofkittens28 that's incredibly reassuring about your HCG rising even though your digital weeks indicator isn't where expected, thank you so much for sharing ❤️

@ELM7 I have also been tracking my increased RHR and that was why I tested initially too! Find it fascinating. Though I think the increase may be slightly due to underlying anxiety as well 😂

@ELM7 I forgot to add, I'm so sorry to hear about your MCs. I really hope you get to meet your rainbow in April 🌈

Nice to see all the new names popping up! Congratulations everyone 🥰❤️

I've seen a few messages about clear blue digital weeks indicator tests and just wanted to share my experience too! I got 1-2 weeks at 11DPO and have been consistently getting 2-3 since then, having done 3 tests now and it not changing I am done POAS! I am 5+6 and it should be showing 3+ but as I have zero other reasons to have any concerns I am just trying not to let it worry me. I have read lots of women's stories where they have either never got 3+ or haven't got until week into their 7th/8th week as the 2-3 is the most sensitive and hcg fluctuates so much! Xxxxxxx

@Motherofkittens28 and @Jj2393 glad I’m not the only one tracking RHR however hope you aren’t as obsessed as I am. I’m checking it so many times a day praying it doesn’t drop.

@chloehunt it’s def not just you. I’ve lost count of the numbers of tests I’ve done and while @Lalala1985 is correct it isn’t going to change the outcome I can’t help myself. Have got one more CB weeks one which I am trying to hold off on in the hope of seeing a 3+

That's what I'm doing too! Hoping to see 3+ lol

@Nervyy thank you so much for sharing, it honestly makes me feel so much better knowing others are in the same boat - especially because you're at exactly the same time point as me, 5+6 today!! I will also try not to worry! Thank you 🥰

Hey, Anyone else out there due April 2022. I got my BFP at 10DPO yesterday. I already have a 6 month old daughter and it's my 4th pregnancy 🌈❤️

Me! I'd love to join a group :) it's my first baby so I need fellow birth friends!

@Motherofkittens28 I'm the same testing everyday but only got one clearblue digital left so use that next week and hopefully get my 3+

@ELM7 what's RHR? Maybe u shouldn't tell me il become obsessed 😂 when u doing your clearblue ? I got 2-3 at 15dpo so hoping 1 week later il get my 3+ 🤞

@Jj2393 I'm so glad I could offer you some reassurance! 🥰 I was so panicked when I got 2-3 and even rang the early pregnancy unit who talked me down and said that they don't advise people to track with those tests or pay much attention to them as so many women stress themselves out trying to get that '3+' when it's not guaranteed! And these women go on to have healthy, happy babies💕 there are loads of personal stories on here too that offered me reassurance at this point too and I am decidedly not going to pee on anymore sticks!! Haha.
Have you got an early scan booked? Is this your first? X

@Laurenxx94 RHR is resting heart rate. It’s something I can see with my Fitbit. But don’t be like me and add to the things to obsess over 😂

And whilst I’m still going to POAS I agree that it doesn’t really mean anything especially when I have seen 3+ twice before but not had good outcomes

Yet i will prob do my final clearblue on Sun as it’s a week since I got 2-3 result.

@ELM7 yep probably not a good idea, ah I'm so sorry have u had previous losses? It's such a hard time. Do u have a scan booked? X

Hi everyone I went to emergency gynaecology today as had some pain , I’m five weeks they done an internal scan and they couldn’t see anything? Just a fluid sac , nothing else , my bloods where at 6000. Does anyone know if it’s normal to not see anything at 5 weeks one day? I’m so sad and scared

I’ve to go back for another scan in 2 weeks

@Cheekymonkey3112 did you see a lot more at your 5 week scan ?

@Scottishgal941 sorry your scan wasn’t able to reassure you. Have had a look and found this….

“ In some cases, a gestational sac will be detected on ultrasound, but a yolk sac is subsequently not found. The yolk sac usually becomes visible on a transvaginal ultrasound between 5 1/2 and 6 weeks gestation”

So it could just be too early for them to see anything yet. I know the next 2 weeks are going to feel like forever but really hope you get some good news at your next scan. x

@Laurenxx94 haven’t got a scan booked yet am hoping to get EPU to give me an early scan with my history. But waiting, if I can, until I know I’m far enough along that we should see a heartbeat rather than going earlier and adding to the stress of is there something wrong or is it just too early to tell.

How long until your first scan?

@ELM7 Thankyou that’s reassuring, there was a little fluid sac but nothing to be seen, they said “ you’re not out of the woods yet until we see the baby” so it’s all just really scary

@scottishgal941 aww hun, I know how stressful it is. Mine was exactly the same. Didn't see a thing, she thought she seen the start of a gestational sac but wasn't sure. My bloods were 3044. I went back yesterday at 5w5d and they seen a fetal pole with a heartbeat. Fetal pole was measuring 2.8mm so tiny. Things can change so much every day. When are you due to go back? I'm sure all will be fine💗 Xx

Thanks @Cheekymonkey3112 my bloods are 6000 so I really thought I’d see something, I’m 5w 1 day, I’m due back in two weeks time , I didn’t realise things can change and develop so quickly so maybe I’ll see something in two weeks x

@Scottishgal941 are you getting bloods redone? If you are anxious about waiting you could book a private scan in the mean time for a week's time? But it might cause you distress if you still can't see things. I think they were quite surprised to see heart activity on my scan, I'm praying thars a good thing xx

@ELM7 sorry how far r u just now? I have a private one on the 23rd so just over 2 weeks the. EPU booked me in at 8 weeks because of my previous loss in June and I can't change my private so lucky enough got 2 in 2 weeks xx
