Due August 2022

[ksc912]

Hello,

Just found out we are pregnant after 13 months of trying - based on last period will be due august 19th.

Any others with similar time like to join to support one another?

Levels 741. Repeat blood test tomorrow and then wait for a phone call Thurs to find out if it's doubling

@ksc912 and @mamaof2girls, I would definitely phone the EPU, you’re at the stage now where surely they could do a trans signal scan to ensure everything is okay? I have no idea if you can do this either btw but it might be worth phoning your GP and pushing for blood tests 48 hours apart to check your HCG levels? Praying for you both, so long as it’s not really heavy with clots and cramps etc, I would try and remain positive. I know I’ve said this before but it IS common to spot during pregnancy.

@Hannabanana2021, that’s so annoying that you’re still in limbo I really feel for you. Keeping everything crossed that it’s good news Thursday for you x

Vaginal* not signal!

@Hannabanana2021 did they call you back and how many days are you? They took my first one yesterday so second tomorrow, then 24-48 hours for the result so I’ll be a nervous wreck 🤦‍♀️. Hope you’re doing ok!

@madeleine85
I'm roughly 5 weeks either yesterday or today. They always call the day after for results where I am. Second one will be tomorrow then they'll call Thurs. I'm going out of my mind now

@firsttimemama182

I had an early scan yesterday! Currently 7 weeks! Was amazing to hear that beautiful little heartbeat - made everything feel so real!

congratulations - i bet it was amazing!

@CoalCraft I would like to think so but can't seem to get excited just yet! But I haven't got to 6 weeks always been 5 weeks thanks for your kind words

Hello All
Can i join??
I got a BFP on 2.12.21 after a MMC in March 21. 2 weeks ago i had bleeding and awful cramps however the EPAU wouldn't see me so we paid for a private scan last Friday. During the scan we was dated 5w 5d with no heart beat, we expected to be over 6 weeks!! Thankfully we were referred to EAPU two days later and a scan showed we were measuring 6w and a heart beat was seen ☺️
Im now 7w 2d and so anxious and worried.....from 6w I had nausea, sore boobs and fatigue. However the last two days the nausea has gone, my boobs are less sore and I seem to have more energy....I'm worried it might be another MMC as loss of symptoms was a sign last time! 😫 I don't know what to do with myself my due date would be 15.08.22 i am just waiting for my 12 week scan letter

@SamBass, could you book in for another private scan at 8/9 weeks for peace of mind? I’m sure things are absolutely fine, I’ve read on here a lot the past few days that symptoms come and go so I really wouldn’t worry too much. Wishing you luck!

Hi I’m due around 19-22nd aug I went for a scan today due to having little bleeding and I seen everything and a little flutter heart beat she said im between 6-7 weeks as it’s viable. What a relief makes it so much more real, this will be pregnancy number 3… my boobs are sore im tored but I never stop so im used to that. And I keep

Try not to worry, take it easy and don’t over do things. X

@Hannabanana2021 good luck, and hope you are holding it together. That's a good early HCG level though!

I'm currently at nervous/obsessing stage. Just checked and they had emailed me the first result from yesterday which was 247 which is way lower than yours, but with the message that it is a good read for early pregnancy so to hold tight. I have a 21 day follicular so completely confused as to how many weeks I am, and the doctor didn't want to confirm, I am guessing it is more like 4 weeks than 5 though. If this doubles/goes well they want me back at 7.5 weeks for the scan to measure as they are unsure about the date. If based off period or ovulation throws a different date.

The average numbers for HCG are below from my doctor, so yours are killing it if that is the first read!

Thank for the kind words! Its so hard to keep calm when you've had a loose before...
my boobs are less sore and the nausea has gone but im suffering with indigestion/heart burn after i eat! Not sure what to make of it all

I think I'm going to book a private scan for 9 weeks as thats a milestone for us..MMC was 8w 5d its will also bridge the gap until the 12w NHS scan

@madeleine85
I've just had a red heavy bleed again 😭

@Hannabanana2021 crossing everything for you that everything is ok. This is so incredibly stressful. Are you able to go get checked anywhere? I am so sorry that you are experiencing this. I know it probably makes little difference, but it happened to my sister a few times while early pregnant with her second and her baby is 1 now, so it really is possible that everything is fine, even though of course we go straight to worst case scenarios in the moment. x

Hello, can I join too 😊
We found out Christmas Eve and I’m due around 28th August, a lovely Christmas present but also a big shock so I’m still trying to get my head around it all, it will be our first! I’ve had really bad fatigue and nausea and I have slept most days since 23rd, but today I’ve felt better! Glad I’ve found this little group as I feel like a rabbit in headlights at the mo!

5+6 weeks today and scan at epu tomorrow. Have my booster straight afterwards which I'm glad about.

@Beth262 it's your scan tomorrow as well, isn't it? How are you feeling? I'll be thinking of you xx

Sending love and lots of positivity to those who are worried and anxious. Keeping everything crossed for you and hope you get reassuring news very soon.

Good luck to those having their early scans - excited for you! Mine’s booked for the 14th Jan which feels about three years away…

Welcome and congratulations to those who have joined over the last couple of days!

Have you had feeling sick yet. Mines shocking this morning feel like I’m gagging on fresh air

Have you had feeling sick yet. Mines shocking this morning feel like I’m gagging on fresh air

I have nausea on and off but haven’t been sick. I just salivate and burp 👍🏼

My boobs have been swollen and painful for about two weeks now and I had cramping last week but nothing this week. Felt a bit dizzy yesterday evening, which was new.

Am also getting restless limbs too! Fingers crossed all good signs.

Hello, can I join please? 😊 I'm due on the 26th of August. I'm 39 and have two older children aged 13 and 15 so this is all feeling quite new again! It's the first time for DP so he is excited but quite anxious about it all.

So far I've had a little nausea, nothing too bad yet, I'm expecting it to hit soon. I am having loads of dizzy spells though, which I don't remember having in previous pregnancies.

Sending love to those of you waiting on news at the moment x

I can handle every symptom going but nausea is the worst. I’d rather be sick least it’s gone then lol.

Also sending love to those who are worried, and hoping you have reassuring news soon xx

I’m with you all on the nausea, have had to do a lot of travel over Christmas to visit family and it was unbearable. I’m also a district nurse and my car is making me feel so much worse. Trying to snack and stay hydrated but not much is helping. I’m 6+5 and have an early scan a week on Friday at 8 weeks. Hoping the nausea is a good sign but also hope it passes asap for everyone x

I’m one week behind you @LMc1 5 + 5 today and my scan is two weeks on Friday. I’m also v. nauseas in the car but it’s slightly better if I’m driving (which I’m now doing a lot whilst DH enjoys the continued festivities! 🙄).
