Hi all,

I've just had my BFP and am due early October 2022, for my first baby I joined a group on here for people all due the same month so thought I'd start one this time round - early days I know but nice to speak to people in the same boat! 🙂

I'm 31 and have a DD who is 16 months.

Is anyone else due in October? How are you feeling?

Anyone else doing line progressiob still?
I feel like my tests are getting lighter and it's getting me down.
I am so anxious about having another MC 😕

Ivfmummy2be · 05/02/2022 09:33

I did a couple of cheap tests last night and the lines were ever so slightly lighter than the cb ones I did last week. I'm just hoping they weren't as sensitive. They were 2 for 99p lol

Leibee87 · 05/02/2022 09:34

No I'm literally doing cb digital otherwise I'd drive myself insane. But did cb today and am 5+2/3 and it still said 2-3 not going to panic though just try again midweek.

Ivfmummy2be · 05/02/2022 09:35

How long has everyone been leaving it between getting 2-3 and 3+ on the digital. It will be a week tomorrow since I got 2-3 is that too early or is there a chance it will have moved up if everything is going well?

Leibee87 · 05/02/2022 09:52

I'm sure I got 2-3 on the 27th Jan and still on 2-3 now. So that's 1 week 2 days.

LizzyB86 · 05/02/2022 09:58

Hello,
Congratulations to you all!
I am due 4th October and so anxious at the moment 😬 I’m am having period like cramps quite a bit and really hope it’s nothing to worry about.
It’s a big help being able to read what you’re all experiencing.

SunnySideUp2020 · 05/02/2022 09:59

I got 2-3 on 2nd Feb and was planning on doing my last one on monday or tuesday. But now reading this might wait a little more...
Especially since the ic lines arent getting darker.

@LizzyB86 congratulations! I'm definitely still getting period like cramps - I'm due 3 Oct.

@Ivfmummy2be I have only just got at 3+ on CB and I'm 5+4. I think it was just over a week ago that I got 2-3 x

@BecLJ I'm due October 4th. I only found out on Tuesday and CB said 2-3. I'm a bit scared to text again but think I will maybe do Tuesday .... Have you called Dr or Midwife yet? I want to get booked in for scans but not in rush for midwife appointments... didn't have great experience last time

Nikki037297 · 05/02/2022 14:21

I got 3+ on clear blue when my period was 3 days late. I’m 5 weeks today. Anyone else 5 weeks and just feeling very tired even though they are sleeping well at night?

WinterBaby131 · 05/02/2022 14:22

Hello congratulations to everyone!
I'm due early Oct , from my calculations.

I've changed the letterboard just as OH has popped to the shops. Let's see how long it takes him to notice when he gets back.

Due October 2022
Ivfmummy2be · 05/02/2022 14:34

@nikki037297 I am 5 weeks tomorrow and feel the same , nothing other than really tired.

Nikki037297 · 05/02/2022 15:21

@Ivfmummy2be I did feel sickly from 12dpo but Iv had 2 days straight with no sickly feeling. Breast are extremely sore, cramps come and go, but today I’m very tired. I’m going to book a private scan for next weekend when I find out which day my partner is off work as he hasn’t found out yet and it’s dragging I just want to see to make sure all is well and going good. I keep dreaming of twins 🤭

Nikki037297 · 05/02/2022 15:22

@WinterBaby131 congratulations!!! How did it go? I told my partner by asking him to pee on one of these cheap tests as I thought they were dodgey lol, his was negative mine had a super faint line! I think that was a give away so we popped to Asda and picked up a clear blue lol

beths89 · 05/02/2022 16:56

Love that @WinterBaby131

LizzyB86 · 05/02/2022 17:14

@WinterBaby131 Please let us know how long it takes for your OH to notice!

WinterBaby131 · 05/02/2022 18:24

@LizzyB86 @Nikki037297 @beths89

I kept asking him to get me things from near the cupboard where I placed the letterboard but he was so oblivious to it, in the end I burst out laughing and pointed to it.

His face was priceless 😂

@KirstyJayne82 I've done an online self referral and am just waiting for them to get in touch with me. Hopefully they will soon - so much more reassuring to have dates at least planned in.

I had my in laws over today and there were definitely a few moments we nearly slipped up and said something about the pregnancy!

@winterbaby131 aw that's lovely, glad he noticed in the end! What did he say once it had sunk in?

@BecLJ keeping it a secret is definitely the hardest thing. In 2 weeks all our intermediate family will know and that will be better. It's so difficult cause I feel like I'm lying (although I'm not because nobody except my mum asked outright- and I told her the truth)

Ivfmummy2be · 05/02/2022 19:06

We already told our mums, we had been having ivf for over 2 years and they knew I was having another embryo transfer so we couldn't keep it from them!
I'm worried about telling work though, I only started 4 weeks ago and I'm 5 weeks pregnant! Oops!!

Winnie2022 · 05/02/2022 20:07

Does anyone feel like they are in limbo? And they look different in the face? I’m awake from 3am and can’t sleep. Hope everyone is ok

Diamondbabe · 05/02/2022 20:19

Hi all,

Do you mind if I join?

I've got my positive yesterday on a FRER so very tentatively joining. I've got a CB coming tomorrow so wish me luck!

A little bit about me, I'm a mum to a little boy 14 months and this was our second month trying. Had a pretty good pregnancy first time round so hopefully the same.

If I've got any advice definitely put down all the tests after getting your positive. Looking if the lines go darker will drive you mad!

Feeling ok, always tired due to having a toddler ha ha.

NatashaJR · 05/02/2022 21:39

Ahhh i got my BFP these last few days, i did a digital test today which said 1-2 weeks lol! I can’t get my head around how that is ‘4 weeks’ for the purposes of pregnancy etc.

I’m 29, first pregnancy, and first month TTC. Me and my partner are getting married in april 2022! Can’t believe our luck!

My problem is I know I’m an over thinker, and I’m anxious! Praying for an easy ride! Would be good to meet some new friends and chat babies! X

mistyrae · 05/02/2022 22:29

Hi all,
Been a few days since I’ve been on here. I was wondering if there any any invite only Facebook groups yet for October due babies? :) had a quick scroll but couldn’t find anything :)

Nikki037297 · 06/02/2022 07:32

@SunnySideUp2020 have you taken anymore tests this morning and how is your line? Did it get very dark before it got faint? As the line does go faint once the hormones get to a certain level as this happened to me once at 8 weeks and the line was pretty much not there anymore and I googled it and it said to mix my pee with tap water so it was half water half pee and then dip the test in there and I did and it was dark again. How are you feeling too? My sickness seams to have vanished! I had it from 12dpo and I haven’t had it this is day 3 now it’s got me worried
