Due late Oct 🎃 - early Nov 🎉

[Foxella]

I don’t know when I’m due, I’ve not had a period since DS was born but I got 1-2 weeks on a Clearblue digi this morning which puts me sometime late October or early November (I think!)
Feels like I’m too far behind the October group but too early for a November one… anyone due a similar time and want to join me? Would love to have some company 😊

Thanks everyone 💗💗

@lilyj13 so according to the day I ovulated I was 6 weeks 3 days and then from my last period 6 weeks 5 days so it was smack bang in the middle of the two estimates haha! Best of luck for yours! Not long now 🥰

@Annny27 Wednesday feels like forever away. I'm impatient 😂 I think it's a days difference from when I ovulated and then from my last period so nothing really in it, prob like you a couple of days. Im hoping I'm over the 6 week mark then can relax the this time I was lucky with no hyperemisis xx

@Annny27 congratulations!! Lovely pic.

So after a great weekend seeing the heartbeat started this week with my son testing positive for COVID! Not what I wanted at 6 weeks pregnant…. So far I’m negative on lateral flow but have a sore throat and feel congested so feel like it’s coming!

Has anyone had a scan at exactly 6 weeks?

@mochii Yes but only accidentally. I thought I was 7 weeks with my son so had a private scan there but they said I was 6 weeks (I forgot to account for my late ovulation). We still saw his little heart beat so it was fine, it just had me very scared for a long time afterwards until I realised I'd messed the dates up.

I’ve decided I might go for one just to check if there is anything at all. Pretty sure there won’t be a heartbeat yet but if there is that will be a bonus!

Hey everyone ☺️

We had our early scan today and was such an emotional experience, saw the little heartbeat beating away 🥰 exactly 7 weeks as I thought. If anyones thinking of having one I recommend it as my anxiety levels have reduced heavily. Still anxious but more excited now ☺️ Was a teeny tiny blob.

@Hjklasdfg that’s amazing! Congrats! It’s such a relief to see that heartbeat!

So my dr just got back with my hcg levels…. they are 17,871. I’m 5 weeks and 3 days. Max!! This sounds extremely high! Of course I’ve googled it and high hcg can be a bad sign! I’m a bit freaked out.
He’s brought my scan forward to Friday anyway so hopefully all will be ok and it’s good I don’t have to wait until next week for my first scan!

@DM1720 thank you so much 🥰 my husband cried when he saw the little heartbeat. I think cos we’ve been trying so long it’s been such an emotional day!

@DM1720 sending you all the positive vibes for your scan on Friday really hope everything goes okay 💕

Congratulations @Annny27 & @Hjklasdfg

Thanks everybody! How's everyone else getting on?

I am REALLY struggling with eating anything in the mornings and them come afternoon I am starving but don't know what for haha

Lovely news @Hjklasdfg :)💗💗

@dm1720 high hcg can be totally normal:) as you feeling sick? The higher the hcg the more sickness apparently

@bringonbaby3 ahhh thats a worry!! I think I said on this thread before thT my friend got covid at 5 weeks and is now 25 weeks so all went well with her it just sucks having double pregnancy and covid symptoms!

I had a scan today. Was told I was 6 week 0. Heartbeat was 125bpm. Is this a little fast. Also, CRL measurements were 4.8mm. Midwife was really positive about it. Is it OK to be optimistic now? Have had a recent bad experience in the US room.

Also, morning sickness has kicked in. Bring it on!

@Raindrops2015 I don’t know anything about the measurements. How far along are you in weeks and days? If midwife was happy about it, then I’m sure you should be too! Does a faster heart rate mean girl/boy?! I think I’ve heard that somewhere.

@Annny27 thanks. Yes I’ve read mixed things about having high hcg. It definitely seems a little high. Though I’ll know more tomorrow when I get second bloods done. 5 weeks it’s meant to be max 7000 to be normal. But by 6 weeks 56000 is normal so I’m somewhere in between this at 17871. I’m a bit worried but trying to focus on the positive. I’m not very sick at all but def have some symptoms kicking in, tiredness and sore boobs mainly, a little nausea/food eversions.

@DM1720 my own dates would be 6 w 0 or 6 w 1.

Hey all loving the updates!
@annny27 what a great scan !
I've come down with a sickness and diarrhea bug it's been awful it's day 2 yesterday was mild and I could eat a little. today I can't even keep water inside, wish me luck ladies !

I called my GP they said to call back at 8wks to book in I don't remember that last time.

Hello! I am around 6 weeks pregnant so will be due around end of October/beginning of November - my main symptoms seem to be fatigue and cramping. So sorry to hear of the difficulties stories in the thread - lots of love to you all!

This is my first pregnancy and I’ve had a really worrying experience today at the shop - my trolley got jammed on something in the car park and the handle rammed in to my stomach. I am really worried and didn’t know who to speak to, does anyone have any tips for the early pregnancy anxiety? I understand my story is probably a little niche! X

@AbbiL0u

Your hormones are flying everywhere at the min, try not to worry or panic. Relax take a bath and drink some camomile tea. Stay off Google and watch some tele, take your mind off it. I strongly believe what's meant to be is meant to be know matter how much you try and change anything or worry about anything.
If you have any concerns, you will always have your mid wife, doctors and hospital close by.

Hope that helps 🥰

Thank you very much, that’s really kind of you and some good advice! :)

@abbiL0u baby is watching back in your pelvis so no concerns. Plus when they do your ultrasound they DIG in so if they aren't concerned during that that I think its okay 💗💗

Congratulations @AbbiL0u ❤️

Way back in pelvis* not watching 🙈

@Annny27 watching the pelvis sounded reassuring too! Thank you so much, I really do feel loads better now :)

@73nat Thank you!

I hope you’re both okay :) x
