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 girls, I hope I’m okay to join ☺️

I’ve had 3 previous mc and have a 7 year old son, I was on contraception and it’s failed so here I am, I’m 8+3 and had a scan at 6+2 as we didn’t know how far along I was then had another scan a few days later as I was having light bleeding but baby had a strong heart beat but they said yolk sac was small and not sure what it means? I’m on progesterone suppository twice a day until I’m 16 weeks now

Hi girls- so I'm feeling less and less pregnant as the weeks go by. I haven't had any symptoms now for two days bar the mild cramping caused by the progesterone.

@LiveLaughL0ve and @botleybump I feel the same emotion wise very occasionally... tears at every turn so I guess that's a good thing? Mostly I just feel very, frustratingly normal.

I can empathise with your frustration on this.
I feel largely the same, then will oddly get a wave of nausea or cry over nothing which ignites some hope. My nipples are more sensitive, but that may be because I'm obsessively checking they still are!

I'm keeping positive, and have an early scan booked for 8 weeks for assurance (privately).
Just focusing on being grateful for keeping food down and feeling pretty normal! I've heard the first trimester can be a pretty testing time for many!

Gamergirl84 · 29/06/2022 17:34

@botleybump I also have a scan at 7.5 weeks- previously there was just the yolk and gestation sac and they dated me at 5+3 give or take. These weeks waiting for viability are torture.

You are right, we might look back on the lack of symptoms and think how lucky we were 😁

JoKB · 29/06/2022 17:46

@Gamergirl84 also having no symptoms now after feeling v sick for a few days, just sore boobs and no appetite now - it’s unnerving me! How far are you?

crazy4cats · 29/06/2022 18:06

had my 'booking in' appointment today and get my yellow maternity folder! πŸ˜€starting to feel a little more real now

concerning that I found the blood draw a bit painful considering what's to come πŸ˜…

Peonies94 · 29/06/2022 20:13

@JoKB my scan went well! I was Measuring 8+5 and all looked good! Now to wait 4 weeks for my next scan!

Those that have had their booking in apps already- did your partner go with you? In the generic email it says to attend on my own but it also said it would be a telephone appointment (it’s not) Wondering if this is all Covid related and hasn’t been updated?

TolkiensFallow · 29/06/2022 20:50

Meeee! I’ve been looking for a feb 2023 thread! Glad to have found you all 😁

Gamergirl84 · 29/06/2022 20:54

@JoKB I'm probably about 5+6 or there abouts- wishing the weeks away until I get the next scan.

I asked this when I was called, the midwife said I can bring my husband. I don't see why you can't now, but might have to double check as might be different in different areas

Dorset2 · 29/06/2022 20:57

@BeeYellowMumma thanks!

TolkiensFallow · 29/06/2022 21:02

@Gamergirl84 sounds like we are a bit similar…I seem to have very few symptoms and it’s soooooo unnerving…

Had a private scan yesterday and have been spotting more than I’d like ☹️but the scan showed a healthy heartbeat and sac… they dated me at 5+4 which would be bang on ovulation..

I hope that you are ok! Never thought I’d miss fatigue of nausea…

Gamergirl84 · 29/06/2022 21:09

@TolkiensFallow oh wow you got a heartbeat at 5+4! That's awesome πŸ‘Œ

TolkiensFallow · 29/06/2022 21:14

@Gamergirl84 well by my dates it’s 7+3 but they changed it to 5+4 based on measurements, but it is great! I’ve got some spotting though which has taken the edge off the excitement…

alvaryder · 30/06/2022 10:24

@StaryEyes1978 hugs. Crossing everything that stepping away and not tracking will give you a lovely surprise one day. ❀️

LiveLaughL0ve · 30/06/2022 12:18

@Dorset2 I took my partner with me and glad I did because there were lots of questions about his medical history and his family’s that I wouldn’t have known.

YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch · 30/06/2022 19:25

Sorry if there's anyone who wants the Facebook group link can you let me know! I've lost track this week with exhaustion!

user1471460621 · 30/06/2022 19:26

@YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch can I have the Facebook link please

YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch · 30/06/2022 19:28

@user1471460621 will message you now

Bunny2006 · 30/06/2022 19:45

I'm sorry those that have had losses :(

I have my booking in appt tomorrow at my dates I think I'll be 8+6, my partner is coming. I got the booklet in advance through and saw the questions about his family history. I've decided to hold out for the NHS scan so hoping I get the appointment through soon, even though it will be a few weeks away.

ViVi1001 · 30/06/2022 19:54

@YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch please may I also have the Facebook link

YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch · 30/06/2022 21:10

Please could I have the Facebook link! Have only just found this group and I'm terrible on mumsnet haha xx

betty1239 · 30/06/2022 21:28

Hi all!

Bit late in finding this group as hadn't really allowed myself to believe it's happening.

Expecting baby number 2. Had a miscarriage in April and fell pregnant really quickly afterwards so just full of anxiety.

Had a private scan at the weekend all looking healthy and a strong heartbeat, 9w today. Sickness is ramping up, so finally letting myself believe this one is sticking ❀️
