Hi all, couldn't see an April 2022 birth thread so thought I would start one.
I'm due mid April but need a dating scan to confirm as I have an irregular cycle.

Afternoon ladies....Anyone having like a tugging pain in lower stomach Ive got it quite bad today it's little uncomfortable but more when uncomfortable when led down? X

Sleepismyfave · 30/08/2021 21:33

Hi ladies. Saying hello as I’m due April 2022 too… though I’m still in can’t really believe so trying not to think about it mode. I have a 2 year old daughter (who’s perfectly healthy and cheeky) but had a missed miscarriage before her so I find being pregnant pretty anxiety inducing. So very mixed feelings at the moment!

80sPadme · 30/08/2021 23:13

[quote YorkshirePhoenix15]@80sPadme I was only thinking to myself last night that I hadn’t felt very nauseous yet and then boom it hit me this morning. According to my calculations I am 6 weeks 4 days and feel awful today[/quote]
Yes that's how it hit me too, I was fine and then boom- sickness

Hi all!
I was wondering if you have a Facebook or Whatsapp group? I think it will be easier to be in touch. I have just created a Whatsapp group

@BlueMediterranean good idea I've joined x

Hopefulmama93 · 06/09/2021 12:17

I just wanted to share a little update, I had an early scan on Friday and we saw a tiny baby (blob 😆) in there with a little flickering heartbeat 🥰 Measuring 7 weeks 2 days.
Everything looked fine and they couldn’t see anything wrong that would’ve caused the bleeding I had so just one of those things.

Really happy for you @Hopefulmama93 ! Bet that's a weight off the mind. Was the dating in line with your expectations?

I have my early scan later this week x

shannonl26 · 06/09/2021 16:22

Hi all hope you don’t mind one more 😊 I’m 8 weeks today, I also had an early scan at 7w3d where I saw baby’s heartbeat! All so exciting yet so worrying at the same time.

I hope your all doing ok Flowers

Hello, bit late to the party but I'm expecting #3 mid April. I had my booking appointment last week and have my 12 week scan in a few weeks! All good so far other than low iron levels.

Can anybody add me to the Facebook group? @fiorelli maybe if you're still about? I'm assuming it's been set to private again as the link posted earlier doesn't work for me. I find it easier to keep up with a fb group!

Harlequin1088 · 06/09/2021 17:28

Hi all. I'm due mid-April. Will be 8 weeks pregnant tomorrow.

Anyone else struggling with feeling constantly nauseous and hungry and tired and just gross? I think if I was actually sick it might help but instead I'm just living with constant waves of nausea throughout the day. Always have a headache. Feel bone shatteringly tired. This mini heatwave isn't helping either😞

wannabeamummysobad · 06/09/2021 17:53

@Harlequin1088 I'm a week behind you (7 weeks on Friday) and the nausea waves kicked in owner the weekend. I too am having intermittent headaches so drinking loads of water to combat- though that's only adding to my needing to urinate 🤦‍♀️. Pre pregnancy I drank around 3.5litres daily (I gym regularly) but now sometimes I get to 5lites and the heatwave isn't ideal. Today just walked to the corner shop in a strapless dress- felt like a human kebab.

Add to that I'm returning to the office tomorrow (hybrid working) so not looking forward to the tube and building heat.

This is my first pregnancy so it's all new.

rosiej95 · 06/09/2021 18:09

Hi
Would love to join if that's ok 👋

I'm 9 weeks tomorrow with first baby & due mid April.
Had an early scan at 6+5 & seen the baby's heartbeat 🥰
Got my first midwife appointment on Wednesday & another early scan next Monday too. 😄

It's a nerve racking time so it's nice to speak to others 🥰

Harlequin1088 · 06/09/2021 18:28

@wannabeamummysobad Oh goodness yes, I can relate to the human kebab bit in this bloody heatwave. I work outdoors as a professional dog walker all day so it's absolutely killing me (even though we've moved walks to early morning for the dog's safety) and I keep having to pause on my walks to just put my head between my knees and heave. The peeing thing is also driving me mad so I'm having to pee in more bushes than the dogs are at the moment. Had a nap when I got home this afternoon and spent half of it getting up to go pee🙄

shannonl26 · 06/09/2021 22:03

@Harlequin1088 I’m 1 day ahead of you & omg the nausea is horrid isn’t it? I find mine gets worse as the day goes on, but I’m constantly hungry so I simply can’t help myself Grin

@wannabeamummysobad I hope your first day back to work goes well!

@rosiej95 I think I’m going to book another early scan for when I’m around 10 weeks too! I’d have them weekly if I could afford it Grin

I have my early scan later this week x

Thank you ☺️ It was 1 day behind but I think I ovulated a day late so makes sense. I track my cycles with an app but I get pain when I ovulate and that was a day after what the app said.

Good luck with your scan
