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?

@coalcraft I get a really dry mouth, which is really frustrating!

i've had this for the past few days but i've also got a cold so put it down to that - but maybe it's not. no metallic taste just yet..

@Digby86 ahhh joining the awake since 5am gang! But weird dreams have toned down or I just don't remember them 🤣

Ive been getting cramps which I was a bit worried about but spoke to my sister who said she had cramping at the stage. They haven't been intense just mild.

Symptom spotting is driving me crazy!

Same, mild cramps here!

Hi, I'd like to join please. 5 weeks today. I have a 22 month old DS. No symptoms which is worrying me slightly as last time my boobs were so sore! Did a second CB today which said 2-3 weeks at 3 weeks PO so I'm hopeful all ok.
I will definitely book an early scan maybe around 8/9 weeks, we found the nhs 12 week scan awful at our hospital and the image terrible. The private scan was on a huge tv screen and the images were so clear.
Does anyone else not have many symptoms??

Yay it's gone up to 2-3

I've been up from 4.30/5ish everyday. I have a stinking cold and blocked sinuses though which isn't helping. Crazy dreams too. My dream last night was like a movie, sinking some super yacht that was insanely huge. I woke up confused wondering what I watched last night and then realised it was a full on pregnancy blockbuster

@TheEmeraldRoom I didn't have any symptoms at 5 weeks. I'm at 6+4 now and the nausea has hit. I was hoping I'd get away with it but no such luck lol

Welcome @TheEmeraldRoom and Congratulations 🎉

Also very little symptoms here too - just sore nipples. I'm currently around 7 weeks.

Got my 3+ today! Was trying to wait until Friday but I just couldn’t! 😂

Have emailed a private hospital about a scan at 10 weeks and Harmony at 13 weeks. Has anyone had one under 9/10 weeks before? Would you recommend having it?

@TheEmeraldRoom I’m 7 weeks today and I don’t have one symptom.. I’m also worried, as like you, I had really sore boobs last time but absolutely nothing this time, not one symptom. I hope all is ok in there 🤞🏼

Hi beautiful’s I hope everyone is ok, found out last week after ttc for baby no3 for over a year that I’m pregnant! It does not seem real at all but I am quite nervous as I’m very early 5 weeks today and I’m having cramps and lower back ache. I’m trying to stay positive but I worry about every little thing! My due dates around 25th august. Congratulations to all of you with your little peanuts so far x

Panic stations over here. Just had some blood when wiped was only small amount but now I feel like cramping got worse too. Not sure if that's just me panicking 😢

@ksc912, Okay, try not to panic. Go and sit/ lie down if you can and take it easy, take some paracetamol for the cramps if you need to. it's really common to spot in pregnancy, I had some the other night.

I'm praying for your little bean!

@ksc912 If it's just a little bit it's almost certainly nothing serious - I had quite heavy bleeding throughout the first trimester in my first pregnancy.

Do ring your GP though (or midwife / consultant if you have one) - I had a bit of spotting the other day and they booked me in for an early scan with the epu xx

@Pearldrops04 thank you x so easy to just assume the worst. Need to try not to overthink!

@CoalCraft thank you - that's really helped me. Going to leave it for now as was only very small. Fingers crossed all is ok x

Don't know if it's pregnancy or just cause I've had a magic few days in work and have eaten a lot of Christmas snacks, but I feel absolutely knackered and very slightly peaky this evening D:

Tell me about it. I’m 5 weeks tomorrow, and it barely feels real then suddenly I’ve found myself very anxious!
My SIL has just announced she’s 14 weeks to the family. I found this really overwhelming. I’ve got ridiculous thoughts running through my head now. Not really looking forward to Christmas with in laws.

Morning ladies! How are you all doing today?

@ksc912 how are you? I hope you haven’t had any more bleeding. As the others have said, it sounds like it’s not uncommon at this stage and hopefully doesn’t mean anything bad. But totally understand how scary it must be! I would probably call doc just to get some reassurance/be on the safe side. Thinking of you ❤️

@netflixandnochill @LiMc1 @Dontsaykwen thanks for the reassurance! I think I’m just being a bit over anxious. Think I’m going to stop poas as it’s clearly not helpful!! Maybe just do one more after xmas to make sure it’s still there… 😬

Can I ask another (possibly over sharing) question? How are your DPs acting about the pregnancy at the mo? Mine is such a cautious guy, and he’s very much of the attitude that he doesn’t want to get too invested until we’re out of the risky stage. Which is fine, and makes sense, but it’s a bit harder for me when I really FEEL very pregnant!! Like, I’m uncomfortable most of the time - my boobs and hips are very sore, and I have cramping on and off. I’m basically having an anxiety attack every time I go to the toilet, worried I’m going to have started bleeding. Plus am obviously having to figure out what’s what with midwife referral, appointments etc. So I kind of feel like he’s acting as though nothing has really changed, while for me everything has!

Not sure if I’m being really unreasonable/insane? Or if it’s fair to expect him to be more engaged with it at this stage. I want to have a chat with him about it, but guess I just kind of wanted a gauge on how people in the same boat are feeling! I am conscious I’m kind of an emotional wreck at the moment, so not sure how well I trust my own feelings… 🤣

Good Morning All,

I'm 6 weeks and 4 days, due around the 14th! First time pregnant and nervous/excited -my emotions seem all over the place!

Have had a few symptoms and have had sickness this last week, but what's doing me in is how bloated I am! Has anyone had similar? I have one pair of jeans left but they are getting pretty tight now too.

Or "cue" even 🤭 so tired

🤣 @Hannabanana2021 Tell me about it!! I’ve been up since 3.45!! What is my life right now?!

God me too, 4.50am today, getting fed up of it now. Starting to wonder if it could be anxiety making me wake up early?! Who knows but it’s the 11th day for me and I’m knackered. Finish work today until the 4th which I’m pleased about as at least I can nap if I need to!

@Digby86, mine’s similar but tbh I’m on the same page, I just really can’t start getting excited or want to to talk about it yet. I guess for me I don’t feel pregnant though so that may be the difference?

Have you got a family member or trusted friend you could tell to talk about it with until he feels more comfortable doing so?

@ksc912, how are you?

Morning @Pearldrops04 Thanks for that - it’s interesting to see another side to it and get a bit of perspective. Maybe I just need to chill a bit and try not to get too into it too early. Think I’m going to call my bestie today - I didn’t want to tell anyone so early, but she’s very wise and I think you’re right that talking to someone else might be good for me!

I think you might be right re anxiety and early wake ups - I wake up needing to pee, but then my mind is too busy to let me go back to sleep. Great that you’re finishing up for Christmas today - hopefully you can have lots of naps and chill out time over the next couple of weeks!
