Hey all, I’ve read through most chats and got some great info. I guess I’m just looking for some reassurance (if able) on my own personal experience.
My OH and I are delighted, shocked and nervous after doing a test a week ago today (3 days before AF due) and it was a BFP. Same again next day then a clear blue digital which said 2-3 weeks on the day AF was due.
Went ahead and booked appointments etc but haven’t done anymore tests despite being desperate too. Q1- should I test again?
I have very swollen and painful breasts since a before we found out, they’re still very much the same but nausea has subsided. Was really bad last week but wasn’t physically sick. I’ve read symptoms come and go so trying not to read into this as know it can come on tenfold in the future.
I have had no mood swings which I was totally expecting as I’m sometimes bad with PMS, I actually feel quite levelled out if that makes any sense?
Some mild cramping last week but nothing since.
My OH is keen to tell his close family over Christmas but we will only be 6 weeks (roughly without a scan) and I’m anxious. Would love them to know as we would tell them bad news anyway but also if want to protect them? Q2- has anyone told family this early on and not regretted it/has regretted it?
We have an 8 week scan which is purely for peace of mind before we fly off to our honeymoon and I know we won’t see much but really to know something is there and hopefully a heartbeat, if not we would want to know asap anyway.
Sorry it’s a long post, would love to know anyone with similar questions/experiences. Currently at 4weeks and 4 days going by first day of last period
