Navigating the early days of pregnancy

[BabyFeet92]

Hi all

I had a BFP last week and I'm 4 weeks and 2 days now. This is my first pregnancy so I'm very excited but also quite nervous.

These first few weeks are so strange to me. On the one hand this completely life altering thing just happened. On the other hand everything still feels normal and I can't talk to anyone about it. I guess it's a bit difficult to believe that I'm actually pregnant.

Just wanted to get in touch with other people in a similar situation to hear how you are doing?

Congratulations on your pregnancy, but I think you will get more responses if you moved your thread to the pregnancy board.
Many women, myself included, are still TTC and may find this triggering.

I'd ask to move this to pregnancy, as PP said it can be tough for those ttc to see this type of post.

But, if you have a partner talk to them. Or tell a friend it family member if you want RL support.

Thanks for the feedback. I was actually trying to find a pregnancy board and couldn't find one, that's why I ended up posting here. My apologies if this post caused anyone to feel upset. Our ttc journey was long too, so I totally get that.

Literally in exactly the same position as you! I found out on Friday that I'm 4 weeks pregnant and FTM. Feeling super overwhelmed by it all!

Trying to take it one day at a time, making lots of notes on my phone and long talks with my hubby about what's to come. But also exercising and watching films, nice food to feel normal about everything.

But would love to hear everyone else's perspective on this!

Hi 👋

I got my BFP last week too. I think I am 3 weeks 4 days.

I'm also making an effort to enjoy each day and am making notes on my symptoms but I'm also looking forward though to reaching a safer stage of the pregnancy as I've been cramping on/off since 3dpo which is a little unsettling. I've downloaded the Pregnancy + app and had some fun exploring that this evening.
