Anyone due February? I know it’s super early but I’ve had my BFP at what I think is 8DPO so it looks like I’ll be due the first few days of February!

@Kmb23 I'd be up for a WhatsApp chat, I'm also on it more than Facebook πŸ™‚ we still talk every day in my august 2021 WhatsApp group, it's such a good support.

IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes · 08/06/2022 20:09

@Kmb23 I would join a WhatsApp group 😊

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:11

@alvaryder thank you for your response. I think I'm just being overly anxious because I had really bad cramping a few days ago which was more one sided. I've already got a scan booked in at epu on Friday morning so I'm hopefully just going to wait for that, don't think they could fit me in any earlier.

Hello @Kmb23 congratulations 😊 nice age gap for your kids, my daughter has just turned 3 so she'll be close to 4 when baby #2 arrives.

@Maple90 hello! It really is stressful isn't it! I had what I thought was a normal period and tested positive a few days later! I'm still not showing 3+ on a digital yet either, hoping it will tomorrow when I use my last test πŸ™ˆ

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:14

@IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes I'm sorry you went through that, sounds awful. I think I'm just being really anxious because so far it's the total opposite to my first pregnancy! I know everyone's different though so it's so hard to know isn't it!

@Kmb23 yes I'd also do WhatsApp 😊

Maple90 · 08/06/2022 20:16

@MamaSJ15 the thing with bleeding/spotting is that it can be a totally normal part of pregnancy! I hate the limbo feeling of the first trimester. My husband swears I spotted with my little boy too the first time round, but I don’t remember! Maybe I’ve blocked it out?! What’s your due date?

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:20

@Maple90 I know, it's just scary isn't it. I literally had none at all with my daughter. And so far I've had what seemed like a normal period, few days of nothing then few days of spotting/light bleeding. I had some major cramping pain overnight and in to the next day on Sunday/Monday, called docs and scan booked for Friday to check all is okay.

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:21

@Maple90 I think my due date is around 2nd Feb. What about you?

Kmb23 · 08/06/2022 20:24

@nestinginnl @IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes @MamaSJ15 Just googled how to make a WhatsApp group chat link but I need to add someone to create the group πŸ˜‚ can you send me your numbers and I’ll then make the group and post the link for anyone else πŸ₯°

IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes · 08/06/2022 20:26

@MamaSJ15 I know what you mean about each pregnancy being so different! I have gone off chocolate and just want to eat biscuits and crisps Blush

I just really hate the first trimester. It seems to drag so much! I keep worrying that my symptoms have gone but I don't know if it's just in my head. Just want to skip forward 3 weeks until I've had my early scan due to the previous ectopic.

Maple90 · 08/06/2022 20:28

@MamaSJ15 this time feels so different for me already too, I’ve got relentless heartburn already, I didn’t get to 16 weeks last time. I also keep getting waves of bad nausea, which I didn’t get any of with my son. How old is your daughter?

im tempted to ring the EPU if I get anymore spotting, so far just once & only a small amount when I wiped earlier today. Scared the life out of me, I nearly left work! But I just decided I needed to ride it out & see what came after, which so far is nothing. ive got some stomach pain but it’s more like bloated mess & the like pulling feeling that comes from the uterus stretching (I remember this from last time!)

IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes · 08/06/2022 20:29

@Kmb23 I have sent you a PM Smile

Maple90 · 08/06/2022 20:31

@MamaSJ15 i think I’m due 8th Feb 😊

Peonies94 · 08/06/2022 20:42

@MamaSJ15 sorry just saw your message from this morning! I am 6 weeks! I had 3+ just before 5 weeks but heard it’s different for everyone!

Jessiecat91 · 08/06/2022 20:43

@Kmb23 I would also do a WhatsApp! Haven’t been on Facebook in years!

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:53

@Kmb23 I've sent you a message 😊

@IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes how far along will you be when you have your scan?

@Maple90 strange isn't it. My daughter has just turned 3. How about your son? It is scary but if you've only had a tiny bit then it shouldn't be anything to worry about. If you get more then I would maybe call them. Can you call the epu direct? I went through my GP, which took forever because they're short on GPs apparently!! Nightmare trying to get through to the docs these days!

@Peonies94 that's okay 😊 so good that you had it though, I'm hoping so much that mine will go up to that when I test in the morning but I'm not convinced I'm leaving it long enough to be honest. Just hoping to God it doesn't go the other way! Half tempted to not test at all just to stay in ignorant bliss πŸ˜‚

Peonies94 · 08/06/2022 20:56

@MamaSJ15 I said the same! It’s no good testing all the time is it, just makes us crazy! I did like progression with frers too! 8DPo, 9, 11 and 13 and then I stopped!

EBx · 08/06/2022 20:58

I’d be up for WhatsApp too! deleted my Facebook years ago :)

MamaSJ15 · 08/06/2022 20:59

@Peonies94 I'd love to see progression but all my FRER look the same pretty much! My digital did go up though so that's good but there was only a couple of days between the tests. But I should be 6 weeks tomorrow so would hope for a 3+ on the test. 🀞

YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch · 08/06/2022 21:01

@alvaryder I'll send you a message with the link x

I won't join the WhatsApp group because I'll fall behind once and then see tons of unread messages and then never look at it again because I can't keep up Grin

IHaveBeenFallingFor30Minutes · 08/06/2022 21:01

@MamaSJ15 I need to ring up tomorrow and book it but will probably be at least 2 weeks from now. The days just feel like they drag!

roarfeckingroarr · 08/06/2022 21:15

Thanks @alvaryder @Kmb23 that's reassuring to hear. I did wince when the sono told me to go home and relax for two weeks (2 hours would be good with the toddler) then rebook. DP isn't really getting it either, so I might just go on my own. I'm fed up tonight because I'm exhausted so going to bed now.

roarfeckingroarr · 08/06/2022 21:16

@Peonies94 thanks, I think this part of pregnancy was sent to test us!!

Onefootonthemoon · 08/06/2022 21:17

@MamaSJ15 i had an ectopic 9 months ago I had a lot of bleeding and bad pain get yourself an appointment your mind can be your best friend but your worse enemy x

sparklexo · 08/06/2022 21:22

Is it possible to add me to the WhatsApp chat please? Xx

Feckingfeck · 08/06/2022 21:37

DD is 11 months... just found out I'm now expecting number 3! ConfusedGrin
