How does one pass the time in early pregnancy 😅

[Rachipops]

Hello!

I'm 4 weeks + 6 and just wondering how the heck you pass the time until the 12 week mark? ⏳

We had an early miscarriage at 6 weeks last year and I'm just constantly battling the happiness vs anxiety of this pregnancy. I found out at 3 weeks, and even the last 2 weeks has dragged in..

Maybe the only way through it is through it.😪

But just in case you have any tips or coping strategies, I'd really appreciate them!

Thank you lovely ladies ❤

Hey all! I just got my BFP yesterday after completely ruling myself out for this month!

After TTC for 3 months we only managed to DTD once during my fertile window and I got thrush the day after and I didn’t have any of the usual EWCM either this month. I thought AF arrived a few days ago but I got sick the same day and my daughters new bed arrived so I didn’t even notice that my period was so light! Turns out it was an implantation bleed and I’m flippin pregnant! 🥳🥳🥳

But now… the wait. Oh the wait! I found out at 7 weeks last time and had my first scan at 9 weeks due to spotting (all was fine!) so this wait is gonna kill me! I think I’ll be fine until Christmas is over and then it’s gonna drag isn’t it 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Congratulations to everyone on the thread btw! So exciting 😁

Ugh the waiting really is the worst 😂 I booked a bundle of 4 private to use over the pregnancy and it helped so much in getting to that next "milestone" so to speak. As soon as I started feeling him kick I didn't need the scans anymore (although still had one to use) I loved using the pregnancy apps too and checking in on "baby" everyday. I'm now almost 35 weeks and it does eventually start flying by I promise! X

You did well on booking a private appointment, for a scan, it will help put your mind at ease. In my case I find doing things to pass the time help. Mostly doing things that I don't have to think about, like cooking/baking by following a recipe. I am waiting some results at the moment for my ivf, and I have been baking all day long. It just helps me spent my time.

How is everyone doing this morning?

Times going very slow ! X
