Early Pregnancy - 4 weeks

Hello,

I just found 6 days ago that I'm pregnant (I know, very early 🤦🏽‍♀️) I am currently 3 weeks 5 days so not even 4!

Just made this New thread in case somebody is in a similar situation and finds comfort by just sharing how things are developing. This is my first pregnancy and have been trying for almost a year. It is extremely early to tell to anybody a part of my husband 😌

Please leave a message if you'd like to join in xx

Hey @thedesirerainbow. Literally on the same boat, 1-2weeks on CB digital yesterday (which means between 3-4 weeks along), and good line progression on FRER since Tuesday 😍

I cant believe it, almost too good to be true. We only DTD once, 4/5 days before ovulation AND this was our first cycle TTC. So very lucky.

I'm just hoping and praying that everything is healthy and happy in there. Last year I had an early MC at 6 weeks, so I'm very anxious 🤞

Are you getting symptoms?

Thedesirerainbow · 20/11/2021 07:46

@Rachipops
Yey! Many congratulations!
I was wondering if I was going to get anyone on this thread and here you are 😍

Gosh!! That's very lucky indeed!! I wish we could have got it that quick 🙈 it has been a bit of a nightmare for us. Our fertility appointment was next Thursday so I was really looking forward for next week and this happened! I could not believe it at all and still very uncertain as we are just in a very early stages.
I had many chemical pregnancies throughout these 11 months so I am a bit concerned still, although I've never had that many positive and strong lines for 6days in a row, so I guess this is positive.
My clear blue is showing 2-3 weeks yesterday. Had my blood taken yesterday as well to see if HCG levels are multiplying accordingly.

Only symptoms were my boobs sore but now they aren't as much and had a little nausea couple of days ago which I think it was just the anxiety of finding out. What about you?

@Rachipops sorry, forgot to mention that I am really sorry you've had a miscarriage at 6 weeks. My heart goes out for you and I really wish you a very healthy pregnancy this time. You deserve it 🤍

Hi Ladies,

I've had 1-2 weeks on a digital today, I'd love to join and see how everyone is getting on! 🥰 it's so nice to have others there throughout this.

@Rachipops I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriage😔

I hope everything goes well for all of us and congratulations to you both 💖💖

SA2021 · 20/11/2021 18:58

Hi all, thought I'd join.
I'm 5+4 weeks and v anxious after a miscarriage about the same time previously. Would be nice to connect with others newly pregnant. Congratulations to all of you!

Thedesirerainbow · 20/11/2021 20:54

@aimeexwall congrats for that positive too!
Did you wait until your missed period to test? I did a big error and test extremely early so I am actually dragging for every day 😅

@SA2021 many congratulations to you too! I am so so sorry you had a miscarriage. That must have been awful 😞 Sending you my biggest support 🙏🏽🤍

aimeexwall · 21/11/2021 09:13

@SA2021 congrats!! I'm sorry about the previous miscarriage 😔

@Thedesirerainbow I was testing every day from like 6po I couldn't help myself 😂😂 I'm only 12dpo so gonna keep an eye on it, my periods have been pretty irregular the last few months. One app says af is due today and another Tuesday! But feeling happy I had a positive on a digital so soon.

Thedesirerainbow · 21/11/2021 18:57

@aimeexwall same here, been testing like a maniac 🙈 still I am testing since I got my first positive which was on Monday. I know I am pregnant but I still feel like it isn't true 😅 have been dreaming so long to have this moment that all I want know is seeing positive test to convince myself that I am.

Are you guys having any symptoms yet?

OP posts:
aimeexwall · 21/11/2021 19:22

@Thedesirerainbow I've had sore boobs and really sensitive nipples starting today! Feeling horribly exhausted already don't know how I'm gonna cope 😂😂

Thedesirerainbow · 21/11/2021 19:31

@aimeexwall same here, boobs are sore and very sensitive! Had a little nausea today but not sure if it's actually from pregnancy or because my mind are playing games 🙈 Is this your first pregnancy?

Hello, can I jump on this thread?

I’m currently 3 weeks and 5 days and got my BFP on Friday! I wasn’t meant to test early but they arrived early from Amazon so did a test on my lunch break out of curiosity, thinking it would 110% negative!

The days seem to go slower than the TWW which is hard to believe 😂

aimeexwall · 22/11/2021 19:38

@Thedesirerainbow I'm the same, then I ate 6 slices of peanut butter on toast today and I'm like I'll just say I'm craving already 😂😂

This will be baby number 2! DD turned 4 in august, turns out I fell pregnant within a matter of days of the last time 5 years ago. This bean seems to be due around 1st of august and DD was due 31st July!

How about you?? X

aimeexwall · 22/11/2021 19:40

@Firsttimetrier congratulations!! I'd explode at work if I found out I'd probably have a breakdown from excitement 😂

It seems like every step now is dragging out, I submitted details to the midwife on Saturday and I'm already checking the post multiple times a day like a mad person 😒😂

Thedesirerainbow · 22/11/2021 20:40

@Firsttimetrier many congratulations!!!! I really wonder how people can have a job and still showing their faces in the office acting like nothing is happening or even keeping their nausea hidden 🙈 fair play to them all 🙏🏽 xx

@aimeexwall gosh you made me laugh so much!! 🤣 I felt so related hahaha already started eating like a literally pig 😅
Thought the tww was something very hard and bloooooody hell it has just been a week since I found out and feels like an ETERNITY! How am I going to do it for 36 more? 😂
This is our first one so very new for us and baby would be due 29 July, which the only thing that I can't stop thinking about is I'll be looking like a bloody ball for summer - brilliant hahaha
When I went to my GP on Friday she advised me to come again not this week but the following one 😱 however showing my face tomorrow morning for another blood test and see if hcg levels are raising properly. Still haven't received results from the one in Friday tho🤞🏼 xx

aimeexwall · 22/11/2021 20:52

@Thedesirerainbow my hands and feet were so bad during the summer, they never fully went down either so I'm dreading this time round 😭😭😭 got my fingers crossed for you everything is as should be! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 make sure to keep us updated too.

I think I'm gonna book an early scan because I don't think I can wait until possibly after Christmas 🥺

Thedesirerainbow · 22/11/2021 21:08

@aimeexwall booked mine already for the 14th of December which I'll literally be just 7 weeks. It seems pretty reasonable time for me to wait but I know is pretty early 🙈

Did you have an early scan for you DD? xx

OP posts:
aimeexwall · 22/11/2021 21:42

@Thedesirerainbow I was thinking of booking around the 17th! It's early but also cannot wait 😂

I didn't with DD, I think I had my first scan mid jan last time so spot on 12 weeks, then went for a private gender at 16 weeks which was Valentine's Day 🥺

Thedesirerainbow · 23/11/2021 13:57

@aimeexwall ohhh gosh how sweet that is? 😍 I don't really know how people can wait on the day of birth to find out the gender 🙈

Just received my results from last Friday blood test and it came 341!! 😱😱😱 doctor on the day of appointment advised that something between 5 to 50 or even up to 100 would show a very good sign of pregnancy and came back with bloody 341? What the hell this means? She just send me a message saying is very good sign and that's it 😅

Hey :)

I just found out on sat that I'm 5/6 weeks gone. Total surprise and still not sure what to think. Completely riddled with anxiety if anyone has any advise 🤭
I really want to keep it but I'm just so nervous! It's also my first

Wookiewoo29 · 23/11/2021 14:51

Congrats! I'm slightly ahead of you all at 10+6. Several miscarriages in the past so super nervous!

OP, Really off point but are you sure on your dates? If you found out 6 days before you were 3+5 then that means you found out at 2+6? That's incredibly early to get a positive and I'd be surprised if you'd even implanted at that point. I wouldn't be surprised if you are put forward a few days on your next scan.

Kaw10 · 23/11/2021 17:18

@aimeexwall
Hi! You mentioned that you're due around 1st August? According to an online pregnancy calculator, me too! Grin I got a BFP 2 days ago, I think I'm 4 weeks today.

I sadly had a miscarriage at 6 weeks in August, followed immediately by a weird cycle where I had a period and 2 days after it had finished, got a BFP Confused A week later had signs of an early ectopic but it sorted itself out and ended early.

I'm so hoping this one sticks, the timing would be perfect to tell the family at Christmas!! I'm already on baby aspirin and progesterone so we'll see!

Thedesirerainbow · 23/11/2021 17:46

@ccbt98 congratulations!! I wish I could found out round 5/6 weeks. Where you trying or it just came by surprise? Either way is fantastic news ☺️
I can't give you any good advise as I am probably same as you or even worse with nerves and excitement 🙈 hopefully writhing our thoughts and feelings through here might help to keep them down 🙏🏽 xx

We weren't trying and we'd already discussed having babies but not for another 2 years so completely stuck with what to do!
Leaning more towards keeping but so fearful!
Hopefully writing will help 🤣

JMPB · 23/11/2021 18:15

Hey 👋

Can I join you ladies?
I am 3 weeks today, got my BFP yesterday. I can already tell that time is going to drag .. these two days feel like they have gone on forever!
I have booked a scan for 23rd Dec, will be 7 weeks and 2 days so just hoping it’s not too early 🤞

GingerBarbieox · 23/11/2021 18:35

Hi everyone!
Very nervous mum to be here!
I have had a previous ectopic and a previous early miscarriage, I also suffer from PCOS.
I am 4.4 weeks pregnant.
I have 4 positive tests, one at the doctors, I have also already had a scan where the sonographer said the embryo was in my womb and a white 'halo' was starting to appear behind the embryo which he said was all positive.
Even though everything is positive so far I cannot get rid of this anxiety and overthinking! It's wearing me out.
I don't really have any symptoms yet, which keeps concerning me. I have slightly sore boobs but that's about it.
Just glad I found this forum tbh!
