I got a lovely dye stealer this morning and I am so chuffed! After a CP in July, seeing that beautiful first line so dark is giving me great hope.

Anyone else 5 weeks? How are you feeling? Flowers

Congratulations, yes, me 6 weeks this weekend. Tired, bloated, feel sick in the afternoon and evenings. Look after yourself xx

babyboybluex · 14/09/2021 11:05

That's amazing @ArthurApples! I'm very similar with the sickness in the afternoon/evenings.

Same to you and wishing you a healthy and happy pregnancy x

Thanks, I still can't believe it, had a couple of CP earlier this year, then the covid jabs messed with my cycle, was about to have the chat about not wanting to carry on trying and its happened. Wishing you all the best xx

Me too! 5 weeks 2 days (i think)

Major anxiety kicking in though as my sore boobs have completely disappeared. Hence why ive ended up on here!

I wish i could remember what it was like the first time around. I sat down before and had an almighty shooting pain up my tummy... Just no idea what to expect again and im so nervous for a MC 😭...

Had some cramping too.. But manageable! I think this is normal!

Congrats to you all for your BFP! x

5 weeks 3 days as of today. Can't stop crying and feeling really nervous. Had some moderate cramping twinges today that seem a bit stronger than they were yesterday. Can't help but feel like its a miscarriage starting.

SherbertLemons · 14/09/2021 20:59

I'm 5wks +3 today too :)
I'm feeling very bloated, tired and a bit queezy, but so happy ;)

Skye90 · 14/09/2021 21:37

Me 👋🏻 5+1 weeks
Exhausted, heartburn, appetite gone and sore boobs 👍🏻

Ronnyrambler · 15/09/2021 11:02

Me too - 5 weeks, 1 days. Really tired. Quite nervous as am 41 yo. Coming on forums actually makes me more nervous so I'll probably read about something else until the first scan...

Blondiebrownie6 · 15/09/2021 11:15

@babyboybluex great dye stealer ! I got mine also, such a good feeling!!

5 weeks today, feeling anxious after a MMC in Feb and a CP in June! Not really got any symptoms which isn’t helping :/ nipples are super sensitive (no sore boobs though) and appetite feels different but no major cravings or aversions hit yet and cramping on and off. I want all the symptoms to put mind at rest lol ! @blessings2022 I hear you on the cramps :( so hard not to panic! Some have been strong at times but then go again, yday was pretty bad but no spotting or bleeding so I’ll take as a positive!

blessings2022 · 15/09/2021 11:18

@blondiebrownie6 True, all we can do is wait. Fingers crossed for us all.

babyboybluex · 15/09/2021 11:38

@ArthurApples It's always when you least expect it! What a great surprise for you. We were similar in the fact we hadn't covered enough so I stopped thinking about the two week wait, didn't test too early and just thought one morning at 11dpo "I'm going to test and see"... boom there it was! Smile We also had a CP in July, it's so awful and I can't imagine what it is like having more than one, you are one brave lady Flowers

@Mummatoislaxx Hello! Don't worry, symptoms will come and go. Enjoy each day!! As long as your cramps are mild take them as your body growing for your new cherub. You've got this!!

@blessings2022 Oh no, please don't get upset (I know it's not easy). As long as you aren't cramping with fresh/heavy blood, cramps are so normal. Water helps ease cramps so keep the fluids up and rest Smile

@SherbertLemons Welcome! All sounds great and exactly the same as myself. How exciting!!

@Skye90 Hey hey - the tiredness is real isn't it. Hope you're managing some cat naps during the day or early night sleep! Take it easy lovely.

@Ronnyrambler Beautiful news! Forums are wonderful, although, scary at the same time. I've tried to stop reading the negative and focus on positive pages, even then you can stumble across bad news. You've got this Flowers

@Blondiebrownie6 Thank you soooo much and yay to you Smile 100% take it as a positive and enjoy each day as it comes. I'm sorry to hear about your losses, it's not easy in the slightest. Sending a hug your way!

A huge congratulations to you all ladies Smile When are your 12 week scans? Ours is the 5th of November and it's my partner and I's anniversary so praying for good news. We have a private early scan booked for 7 weeks as well...

Thank you for your message but it wasnt good news for me 😔 congrats to everyone else though ❤️❤️

Skye90 · 15/09/2021 11:42

Huge congrats to everyone here! So exciting but nerve wracking at the same time isn’t it?
We have also booked a private scan for the 27th. 12 week scan isn’t till 9th Nov which seems ages away!!

babyboybluex · 15/09/2021 11:44

@Mummatoislaxx I am so sorry to read this. Please be kind to yourself Flowers Sending lots of love for this hard time x

5+6 after IVF embryo transfer on 24th August. We have a scan booked with our clinic on 28th September to confirm everything is as it should be, but tests are looking great. I'm incredibly tired, had some nausea, boobs are sore, and my emotions have been all over the place but I just keep telling myself it will be worth it 🤣

babyboybluex · 15/09/2021 11:48

@Skye90 It will come round fast Smile

@MrsRubyMonday That's exciting!! Your tests are giving you great positivity, I love it. Ohhhh it is soooo worth it, such a special time. Congratulations x

@Mummatoislaxx I'm so sorry for your loss xx

ttcally19 · 15/09/2021 17:29

@babyboybluex hey I just found out I'm pregnant too. I've just jumped onto the May thread in here as there seem to be lots of ladies who are expecting same time too. I'll share that one too if you like. Congratulations

Due May 22 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/pregnancy/4330766-due-may-22

babyboybluex · 16/09/2021 09:18

I'm in this thread but find it hard to keep up haha @ttcally19 Grin

@babyboybluex 😂😂 sorry I didn't realise I only just joined it someone shared it to me. Not many June ladies just yet so I feel lonely 😔

Blondiebrownie6 · 17/09/2021 07:48

Thanks @babyboybluex , I plan to use my clear blue digital tomorrow and hope that I see 3+ then I’m stepping away from the tests lol ! Feeling very anxious but just need to take each day as it comes and focus on the small milestones ahead!

That’s great you have your scan booked in already! I can’t refer to the midwife until 6 weeks , but they were pretty quick last time so should get my booking appt at about 8 weeks. I have an early scan with the EPU on 4th October ! Just over 2 weeks away so that’s my first milestone to reach :) when is yours ? How are you feeling ? Xx

LIB2020 · 17/09/2021 17:20

I am 5+3, I’m feeling exhausted I keep having to go for naps 😂 starting to feel a little nauseous too but I don’t know if my symptoms are from stress tbh as I’ve had a shaky start as I’ve been bleeding since I found out but my bloods are positive and I’m waiting for a scan next week. Congratulations on all BFP! X

GEM711 · 17/09/2021 20:40

5+2 here (I think). This is my first and I'm terrified of something going wrong

FateHasRedesignedMost · 18/09/2021 08:07

Hi, I’m about 5.5 weeks with my second. Not too many symptoms yet, just nausea that comes and goes and very sore boobs, lower back pain.

Also I keep wanting to sleep all day then wake up at 4am ready to start the day, my sleep pattern is way off!
