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!

Hi everyone,

Can't believe I'm writing this, but I just found out I'm pregnant, due February 19th.

#1 was conceived via IFVF after 6 years of infertility treatments and unfortunately three miscarriages. DS is turning two in October πŸ™‚

We had a failed cycle in January and are so surprised to find out it worked the natural way- but at the same time, terrified.

The only successful pregnancy I've had has been with full medicated support and right now im on nothing.

I'm about 5w 5d and have a early scan Monday because of history.

No symptoms but tiredness and mild cramps. Very very nervous.

I'm 38 btw πŸ˜„ tests taken at 5w 2d.

Hi Everyone, I got my BFP last week - I’m currently 6+3 based on LMP but I suspect I’m more like 5+2 based on O or somewhere in between. Had a few days of non stop worry after a small bleed on Saturday and then symptoms coming and going but the insomnia and nausea has hit back tonight so hopefully all okay. @YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch Could I join the FB group please? Expected DD is either 15th or 22nd Feb and Iv booked an early scan next weekend to help with the anxiety.

Welcome @Gamergirl84 @Cat2022 !

I am utterly exhausted today. Thankfully that I have today off but I decided to take my daughter out of nursery too to spend some quality time with her before the baby gets here. Feeling the guilt already!

Thanks @BusyBushBaby I'm not sure what they'll be able to see as it's a bit early for a heartbeat but it might give some indication of whether it's viable.

Very tired today.
But that could just be the weather and a toddler waking at 6 πŸ˜†

I haven't slept properly for 2 weeks. My nose just won't unblock. Sudafed nasal spray works but apprently really shouldn't take it in pregnancy. I've been so desperate a few times that I have used it and will ask the midwife about it at my 1st appointment on weds, maybe they will say once every few days is fine.

I've sent my partner to get some saline nasal spray today, it's drug free so might not work... But I'm thinking can this really just be hayfever or is it pregnancy related congestion? Hayfever usually ebbs and wanes somewhat! this just won't go. My mouth is dry and feels like shite as I can only breath through my mouth, I'm tired, can't sleep and just very miserable.

I also feel 'funny' like not quite nauseaus, not quite hungry and not quite full all at the same time. I don't know if it's pregnancy related or just down to not sleeping well and when I do eat it's a chore because I can't breath!

alvaryder · 24/06/2022 16:19

@crazy4cats I dont have major congestion but its like a constant uncomfortable nose. And the dry mouth is the worst!
I havent felt straight up nauseous either, just not myself, and hyper aware of every smell around.
I feel I should be feeling nauseous by now. Can't believe im wishing it on myself!

Peonies94 · 24/06/2022 17:33

@Gamergirl84 congratulations and best of luck to you!
@Cat2022 massive congratulations to you too!!

I’m finally on the mend from covid! Feeling a little better again today, I have no plans the weekend other than catching up on house work we haven’t done this last week whilst being rough, and then it’s scan day Monday! I just really hope everything is going to be okay after covid 🀞!

Could I have the link to the FB group please?

I had an early scan today and I'm 7+1 from the date of my LMP but measuring at 7+5 and got to see a little flickering heart beat 😊

Gamergirl84 · 24/06/2022 19:08

@personallyvictimisedbyreginageorge such good news! Congratulations! Did you get a picture?

Could I second a request for the FB group please? Many thanks

HopeFour · 24/06/2022 19:14

Found out today we are pregnant with our fifth. This has come as a huge surprise, I'm full of mixed emotions. We was certain four was our limit. I'm so nervous with the thought of five ..

Babydance255 · 25/06/2022 07:03

Hey all! I'm 5 weeks today & would be due around 25th Feb according to nhs calc. πŸ₯° we have an 18 months old son too. I joined a baby group with him on here and we are all such good friends now, we made a private facebook group and now all have a group chat on whatsapp. It's lovely! We have a private scan booked in for just under 2 weeks 😍 hope you're all doing okay! x

Michelle99923 · 25/06/2022 08:11

Hi! I'm due the 9th of February. 2nd baby πŸ˜†

Cat2022 · 25/06/2022 09:02

Congratulations everyone! This is my first and I’m so excited and nervous all at the same time. Nausea has kicked in over the last couple days/ nights but it’s made me less anxious as now I feel like somethings actually happening πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

@Gamergirl84 they did print us a pic, DH said it looks like Casper the ghost πŸ˜‚

Just been for my scan, measuring a week behind, 6+3 rather than 7+2 but they let us hear the heartbeat and they said it's a very strong one so 🀞🏻

New due date of 15th Feb, but got my 12 week one booked in for 28th July!

Gamergirl84 · 25/06/2022 13:56

Congratulations @RBSK1 ! So lucky you got to hear the heartbeat πŸ’“ Do you think you ovulated a littler later?

My EPU booked my early scan for Monday when they think ill be 6+2 but my cycles tend to be 32 days not 28 meaning I might only be 5 weeks something. Still, hoping to see the beginnings of little one πŸ™

RBSK1 · 25/06/2022 15:20

@Gamergirl84 they said I must've ovulated late but when I took my digital, I thought I was 4+3 and it shown 2-3 weeks but according to the scan I must've been 3+4 πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Does anyone have tips on managing constipation? It’s been a week now and I’m starting to feel a bit uncomfortable

Muddydogwalks · 25/06/2022 18:23

Has anyone else got a horrible taste in their mouth like they been sucking on old dirty coins 🀒 or what I imagine that would taste like πŸ˜‚ Only time it semi stops is when I’m eating but as soon as I stop the taste comes back

Yes to this! Does not pair well with nausea!

roarfeckingroarr · 25/06/2022 20:22

@Muddydogwalks yes I do! It's horrible.

Muddydogwalks · 25/06/2022 20:51

@botleybump @roarfeckingroarr glad to hear I’m not alone! Really hoping it will go soon for us all, as it’s bloody horrible plus I’m gaining weight as eating to get a break from it 😬

LiveLaughL0ve · 25/06/2022 22:32

@PeanutButterFalcon I try to eat more fruit and veggies and really hydrate when I start to get constipated. That’s worked for me. My digestion is certainly far from normal right now. I’m not sure whether there’s anything you can take when pregnant that might help. My Nan used to swear by prunes! I hope you get some relief soon.
