Hey I'm only 10dpo but just got a faint positive 2 days ago and has been getting darker so hoping this is real. I calculated and I'm due June 1/2nd.

Anyone else due the same time as me? Want to hang out and keep me company I know it's early days.

I can’t believe how nauseous I feel (not actually thrown up yet) when I’m only just over 5 weeks. I told the midwife who rang this week and she said as i had just had a miscarriage and then got pregnant really quickly my hormones are probably heightened. Anyone else had this? Poor woman I am so anxious I asked about everything Blush

@Nailingnow let us know how you get on. Sending love x

Chloesen90 · 17/10/2021 20:16

Ladies I've fallen into the testing trap. I'm 5+3 and still showing as 2-3 weeks on clear blue. I ovulated over 3 weeks ago now so I should be showing 3+. I got my self so upset today about it. Conflicting info on google about using these to test your progression :(

makingamac · 17/10/2021 21:00

@Chloesen90 I think we know too much now with this forum and google! I bet our Mum's just got on with it 😂 I know it's easily said, but just wait for a professional's advice. I've booked in with a private company for a scan at 7 weeks because I'm so impatient! X

CurryandSnuggle and willow1981 I'm also in Sussex!

I am another one whose all over the place. I am getting intermittent nausea (especially if I get hungry), have intermittently sore breasts and I'm exhausted, but I am convinced my symptoms aren't my as strong as in previous pregnancies (successful and unsuccessful). Having had a MMC, I'm not even convinced I would know if it happened again, but can't bring myself to have a private reassurance scan, as in the spring, baby grew to 9 weeks. DH is away for a few days and I now have little distraction from the thoughts.

@Chloesen90 STEP AWAY FROM THE DIGITALS!

Hormones fluctuate from woman to woman. Don't take any more of them. I drove myself mad with this in my previous pregnancy, they told me nothing. They predicted nothing. They are just anxiety sticks. Please stop! ThanksThanksThanks

@HopefulJ2018 I'm so glad someone else feels like this is a big hangover on week 7!

I'm exhausted too, if I lie down I don't feel sick but as soon as I move to get a sip of water I feel nauseous so I just try and stay still 😩

When does the nauseous feeling peak?!

ImmyTTC · 18/10/2021 00:13

Hey! Does anyone mind if I join? Got my BFP yesterday and it looks like I’ll be due on June 28th. I’ve had 6 miscarriages before this pregnancy, this is my fourth pregnancy this year, but I’m really hoping for a sticky bean this time. I am feeling super nauseous and my boobs are so sore it’s unreal. How’s everyone else doing? ❤️

HannahsLife · 18/10/2021 00:31

Is anyone checking progression? I'm concerned my lines are not getting much darker for 20 DPO?

I did FRERs 2 days ago and 4 days ago and honestly there were definitely lines but not a huge noticeable difference. I'm going to do another in the morning but I'm so worried rn.

Welcome @ImmyTTC
I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. Lots of us here have had mcs. We're all in this together, trying to keep spirits up. I personally am so anxious that I got down in my knees and prayed yesterday. Palms flat together and everything. I haven't done this since primary school with Mrs. Fisher looming over me and telling me off for opening my eyes...

I said: "Dear God, sorry I haven't kept in touch. Please make this one stick"

Talk about only calling when I need something. Hmm

@HannahsLife internet cheapies SUCK. I was charting with them and my line wasn't getting darker either. My DH has now confiscated them all. He said if I keep this up for 9 months, he's worried I'll drop dead. I did supplement with a CB 6 days early line test and that definitely got darker. I tried solemnly explaining this to DH but he just rolled his eyes and took those ones too....

PeeAche · 18/10/2021 00:50

I'm up really late with nasty stretching feeling low in my pelvis. Googled it and it says it's my uterus stretching and sign of pregnancy progressing normally. Now too excited to sleep. Lying here enjoying the agony. Thinking "yes, stretch my pretty, streeeetch"

Thank you! I think DH may need to do the same. It's giving me such anxiety 😞

Throw them in the bin and join me in morning meditation. Tomorrow is my first day.

To be honest, I'm fucking sick of peeing on sticks anyway. Between charting ovulation and pregnancy, I can hardly remember the last time I just woke up and went for my morning wee in peace. Fuck the fucking sticks.

Sorry for the sweats. Just feeling passionate.

6+3 and nausea has fully arrived 🤢

1stTimeTina · 18/10/2021 07:51

Hi, sorry TMI but had some sharp cramps last night and then this morning a large amount of brown ish discharge on wipe, is this normal? I’m about 6 weeks . Had a bit of brown and pink discharge throughout but this was substantially more.

Unarosaes · 18/10/2021 07:52

Morning! I have been following this thread in silence for the last two weeks. I am still cautiously excited as my first pregnancy earlier this year was a blighted ovum which was confirmed at around 8 weeks. Since I found out I was pregnant last time, I was worried sick about anything that could go wrong. The pregnancy didn't go differently just because I worried, so I am trying to take every day as it comes and be happy I am still pregnant today. (As chill as I try to be, it is super reassuring to hear all of your experiences with symptoms!) I should be 6 weeks tomorrow and due in mid-June.

Clomid1 · 18/10/2021 08:07

@1stTimeTina it’s actually pretty common for this to happen in the first trimester but my friend who is a GP always said I should go into EPU if there is blood just to rule out a few things. Give EPU a call I am sure its nothing but at least you get some reassurance.

Clomid1 · 18/10/2021 08:24

@Unarosaes awww sorry to hear about that. But this will go to full term and you’ll have a happy healthy baby.

@HannahsLife don’t do anymore. Honestly take it a day at a time and before you know it it will be your first scan. I know its hard because I was testing too ( I did 10/11/12/13/14 and 19) but it’s just not worth the worry. Let’s just hope for the best and stay positive

@rathernotshare when did you start getting symptoms? 5+5 and still nothing 😞 I mean I get the dull uterus ache and obviously the missed period. But nothing else? Kind of tired I guess, I take naps in the afternoons when I am not working 😁. But thats it no naseau. It makes me worry 😂

Bella2255 · 18/10/2021 08:24

@1stTimeTina I had this last week. Very light pink discharge when I wiped which then turned brown. I called the midwife and she said perfectly normal. Lots of blood going to the cervix at this time. Don't worry xxx

Bella2255 · 18/10/2021 08:27

@Unarosaes I think we have very similar dates! I am 6 weeks tomorrow and due 14th June 😊. Have you been tracking BBT? I read this can give reassurance everything is going as planned... not sure if people find this more stressful but if my temp is high in the morning I feel like I can relax. Not sure if this would help you 😊. Sending lots of love, best wishes and positivity your way xx

Unarosaes · 18/10/2021 08:39

@Clomid1 thank you! It is what it is, and yesss fingers crossed everything goes well this time!! Two of my friends gave birth during my FW in September, so I hope this is a good sign 😅 (grasping on straws ATM)

@Bella2255 yes! I think we have the same dates :) I haven't been doingBBT. I randomly took my temperature a few days before my period was due, but I have no idea how it works and I think starting so late in the cycle it makes not much sense, so I stopped doing it because I was just stressing myself out for no reason at all.

EB86 · 18/10/2021 09:05

TMI but are you guy's experiencing more discharge than normal, I find I need to wear a panty liner everyday lol

PeeAche · 18/10/2021 09:05

This doesn't sound like anything to worry too much about @1stTimeTina . Really, I've had 2 mcs and they didn't start brown or pink. They were scarlet red and filled with tiny clots from the very beginning of my bleed. This sounds like old blood from implantation.

I know it is very, very hard not to worry. Calm, reassuring and peaceful thoughts are coming your way. Thanks

PeeAche · 18/10/2021 09:06

@EB86 firstly my vagina dried up and wiping it felt like nails on a chalkboard after using the loo. About a day ago, discharge began and now it's so slick it feels funny when I walk. Grin (sorry TMI)
