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?

@Beth262

Morning everyone

I'm so pleased to say the scan went well. Baby measuring around 8 weeks and all looking good. So relieved x

Amazing news!

Hi
3rd pregnancy and unsure of my dates, possibly DD of Aug 28th. I am having extreme symptoms, nausea, very sore Boobs, exhausted. Is anyone else the same? I didn't have symptoms this early with my last two pregnancies.

Great news @Beth262!!

Yes @mamaiFifi my symptoms have been pretty full on since 4+3 🤯 I’m 5+6 today and didn’t get out of bed yesterday. This is my first.

Thanks @surprised12 @Factualmistakes and @netflixandnochill x

@Beth262 congratulations, what lovely news! You must be so relieved ❤️

My scan went well today too! Good heartbeat and measuring where it should. The relief is real!

Hi ladies. I have my first midwife appointment on January 13th, I will be 8 and a half weeks by then. Does that seem a little late for a first appointment?
This will be my second child. I'm 40.
Due August 23rd if all goes well.
I contracted strep B in my last pregnancy, got picked up in swabs to check for infection of the stitches. I also suffered terribly with swollen feet. So much, that i had to wear shoes 2 sizes larger. Does anyone know if any of this will be monitored in this pregnancy?
Congrats to all!!

Delighted to say scan went well! Little heartbeat and all 💕 Measured 6+1. I'm a little frustrated though as I didn't get to speak to a doctor, so still no answers re. the bleeding or whether it might have been linked to DD being born early.

But never mind that. I have a healthy little bean inside and that's what matters!

@Beth262 @Cakecakecheese so glad it went well for you both!

@CoalCraft and @Cakecakecheese that’s so exciting!!! Great news for both of you ❤️.

Still waiting for blood results 🤦‍♀️

Hi all

I'm a little late with finding you. Hope everyone is doing ok.
I was first on these boards around 9 years ago with my daughter.
And now at 39, new partner and having forgotten how bad my hypermesis was the first time round, I'm back with a bang!

I have a due date of 10/11th August. Had an early scan on the 27th due to some bleeding over Christmas but all is looking good and bean baby seems to be doing well.

The nausea is constant, and the sickness has its ebbs and flows. I'm just starting a new lot of medication to try and ease things and so hopefully I can function when I return to work after the new year... thankfully wfh, so not having to hide things will be a bonus.

I'm going to go back over and read all the posts and catch up (and then probably forget and that seems to be me currently!)

I've had my blood results
741 to 1228
Not quite doubling but still classed as in a "normal range"
They've booked me a scan on Sunday and I've just started spotting again. After 2 bleeds and pretty much continuous spotting since Sunday I think I'm losing all hope. My numbers are ok but I might've felt more confident if they had doubled 😢😢

hope everyone is okay 😊

is anyone using an app to track pregnancy? if so, could you let me know which one you think is best please?

thanks x

@firsttimemumca I like the Glow apps, there are 3 of them. I use the first one to track my periods when TTC, then there's a pregnancy one and finally one for after the baby is born, both of which I used with my firstborn and am planning to use again.

@firsttimemumca I use the Flo app on the pregnancy setting, I used it to track ovulation previously and find it ok.

@Hannabanana2021 that's good news that the results are in the normal range. I'm sure that Sunday seems a million years away for you, keeping everything crossed for you x

I hope everyone else is ok x

@OooohAhhhh I think that's about when I had the first appointment for my previous pregnancy. I've not been contacted to even arrange mine yet so you're doing better than me!

@OooohAhhhh I'm around 8 weeks today and not even got in touch with a midwife yet. Didn't want to jinx it!

@CoalCraft I'm so pleased for you lovely!! Fingers crossed for your mum coming home tomorrow and then it'll have been a wonderful end to the year for you 💕

@Cakecakecheese seems a good scan day all around. Congratulations to you too!

@Hannabanana2021 they're increasing which is good. Looking back at the chart madaline provided a few days ago, your numbers fit but like you I wouldn't be assured without seeing a tiny bean on the screen in front of me. Sunday will be here before you know it. Stay positive.

@Madeleine85 did they call with your bloods?

thanks @NetflixAndSauvignonBlanc.. have just downloaded..

@StayWeird i've got the flo app too 😊

xx

@Beth262 they didn’t, and I’m going demented 🤦‍♀️. I know it can take up to 48 hours but they took it first thing Wednesday so I thought it would be back by now as the last one was. Feels really shitty/like something might be wrong. I’m reading too much into it I’m sure, but now I’m analysing every little twinge 😂.

@Hannabanana2021 that’s really great!!! I know even if mine are normal I’d have your reaction though. Ahh this is so stressful!!

@firsttimemumca I also forgot to mention that with the Glow apps your other half can also download the apps too and link to your account. We found that feature very useful for tracking feeds in the baby app once the little one was here.

@madeleine85 Well that's frustrating! Im a little like you - my mind runs away with me sometimes. Its probably just that the person making making the calls wanted to get home early! Hopefully you'll be first on the call list in the morning 🤞 Try and get some rest and put it out of your mind this evening - though easier said than done I know x

@netflixandnochill

Great news *@Beth262*!!

Yes @mamaiFifi my symptoms have been pretty full on since 4+3 🤯 I’m 5+6 today and didn’t get out of bed yesterday. This is my first.

Ah glad to hear that someone else is feeling the same, Wouldn't it be great to have a symptom free pregnancy. Hope you feel better tomorrow.

@Beth262 they emailed last thing thank god. Think they must be closed now for new year so they were rushing. It doubled more or less from 247 to 503, so that’s a relief. This was after I completely gave up hearing back until Monday, worked myself up, didn’t eat, and then wow the nausea hit. Which was honestly a relief to me at the time. I have a friend who had 2 mc situations, both bloods hit 600 and stopped, so I feel like maybe I’m not out of the woods. My scan is in 2 weeks time so I just need to get to then. In other news, the toilet training of my 2 year old is actually ok, minus the fact that she’s made my home office her pooping spot 😂. At least it’s 3 years before we’re toilet training again all being well!

Hope you’re all doing well and are looking forward to a (hopefully) quiet covid free nye!

Morning all,

5+6 today, still no symptoms, argh! Have an early private scan booked in Monday evening at 6+2 so I’m really hoping we’ll see something and a heartbeat to put my mind at ease!!

Happy New Year to all!!

6+3 today and woke up to dark brown in my panty liner (worn because of progesterone pessaries). I had a slight bleed 8 days ago so maybe this is just old blood still making its way out? It is so hard not to worry. I've had a bad cough the past few days (not covid) and I keep worrying it will harm the baby. I don't want to call my IVF clinic because I feel like it isn't important but they must get this all the time with worried patients.

So glad to see everyone's scans went well. I have another 10 days to wait for mine. Feels like an age.

Morning everyone!
Happy NYE!!
I hit another teeny milestone today - got my 3+ weeks on clear blue digital.
It's a relief that it's gone up each week - but slightly disappointed there aren't any more from here.
I should be 6 ish weeks tomorrow, next countdown is to my scan on 9th Jan. actually isn't that long away so hoping it goes quick and that everything is good at the scan. Very anxious about it!
