Hi all! Had a BFP yesterday at 11dpo after a squinter at 9dpo so thought I'd start this thread for everyone just getting bfps around now and due later in Feb/ early March!

I'm hopeful but a bit nervous after two chemicals this year. Hoping this bean sticks! Feeling positive about it so far... This will be our second baby, have a 21mo DD already 🥰

All welcome!

Congrats @havanamama and thank you for the Facebook group @TeddyBeans - the link isn’t working for me but maybe because I’m on a mobile?

havanamama · 01/07/2022 14:20

I’ve only known about this pregnancy for 4 days, but I get your feeling @MrsD2021 , I need something else to fill my mind, otherwise the days are so slow!
especially now that I’m waking up earlier every day cause of needing to pee constantly.

TeddyBeans · 01/07/2022 14:54

Each link for the FB group is only active for 20 clicks or 2 days (whichever comes first) so it may have expired. I shall post another one in a mo - just at the park with DS and one of his friends

Thank you! I’ve sent a request too

MrsD2021 · 01/07/2022 19:39

Anyone else having really vivid dreams? I had such a vivid dream 2 nights ago that baby was a girl and I was due to give birth tomorrow 😂 I woke up almost expecting to see a newborn next to me. Such a strange experience

TeddyBeans · 01/07/2022 20:49

@onewishfulthinker did you get accepted to the FB group? I had a request in my notifications last night but it wasn't on the menu when I clicked on it 🫤

TeddyBeans · 01/07/2022 20:50

@MrsD2021 I wish I dreamt like that. I very rarely dream. Or if I do, I don't remember them at all

OCM19 · 01/07/2022 20:55

Hi ladies, gosh I’ve been longing to join this thread for so long 🫣 I got my positive today 🥰 I think I am 3+6 so still very early, but would love to join. Due date is around 11 March I think xx

ive got vivid dreams too. Overall in the mornings I’ve got barely any symptoms, only frequent peeing and saliva.

Then in the evening more cramping, last night woke up sweating, vivid dreams.
really excited for tomorrow, counting from last period it will be first day of Week 5 :)

today got the white discharge too, taking it as another positive sign that so far my body is doing the right things

havanamama · 01/07/2022 21:18

@OCM19 woohoo 🎉 I think we must be practically on the same days!

OCM19 · 01/07/2022 21:29

@havanamama ahhh I recognised you from the conception thread. I’ve also had a lot of white discharge today. I think, going from my last period, my due date is 11 March, when is yours? Xx

havanamama · 01/07/2022 22:44

Yes! Mine says 10th of March

Yes! The bonkers dreams started really early for me too! So weird 🤣

Sorry I’ve been MIA for a while. I just needed to take a step back because I was driving myself crazy spending every waking minute thinking about this pregnancy and I didn’t want to get too hopeful because it’s still so early. I’m 6 weeks today and the fatigue has hit me so much this week. I just had an hour nap - one of the perks of working from home! No other symptoms so far apart from feeling a bit icky and my nipples are getting very plump 😂

I did my self referral to the hospital and they’ve given me my booking appointment next Thursday. I’ll be 6w6d so not sure if that’s too early for the blood tests they’ll do?

I’ve booked a private scan for 7w4d and I’ve also booked in to have a Harmony NIPT and nuchal translucency scan at the FMC in London at 12w4d. I know it’s really early to be thinking about genetic testing but the FMC we’re so easy to book - didn’t have to pay a deposit and they’ll cancel free of charge if anything goes wrong before then. Anyone else booking a NIPT test?

Pregnancy is all consuming isn't it?! I'd love to be able to switch my brain off from thinking about it as that would probably make the time feel like it's going faster!

Just to say that with my first my booking in was at 7 weeks exactly so you're probably fine for any tests etc. If it's too early for any reason I'm sure they can work out taking bloods slightly later. Xx

WonderWoop · 02/07/2022 00:30

@MrsD2021 I am 6w today and have an early scan at 8w so will be keen to hear how yours goes a couple of days before!! I'm also planning NIPT though haven't booked it yet. Did it with DD and was glad for the piece of mind though NHS test subsequently came back fine anyway. This time I think we will find out gender so it's nice to get that with NIPT too. Ignoring the cost! Plus I'll be 40 around the same time the baby is due so I'm geriatric (though also was last time at 36, thank you NHS!!)

OCM19 · 02/07/2022 07:11

Morning ladies, please could I have the link to join the fb group?

@havanamama ahh amazing 😬 I love my DS’s birthday being in March.

I’ve also been thinking of doing the NIPT, so will have a look into it this weekend. Hope you all have a lovely weekend 🥰

havanamama · 02/07/2022 07:17

Morning!
another early morning and another darker line ☺️
today is 4w1d, so according to a calendar I found, it’s officially 1st day of Month 2 of pregnancy 😄
I’m very excited for next week, feels like a lot will be happening:


  • missing period

  • Emergency Midwife appointment for my medication

  • Clear Blue should show 2-3 weeks(4-5)

i’m really trying to keep optimistic and positive and be excited, but the anxiety does creep in.

TeddyBeans · 01/07/2022 15:08

@OCM19 this one should work still, let me know if it doesn't and I'll make a new one 😘

TeddyBeans · 02/07/2022 07:39

@havanamama it's tricky isn't it? There's always that niggly little 'what if?' in the back of your mind. Keep focussing on the excitement and the positives though! At this time, you're having a successful pregnancy ❤️

havanamama · 02/07/2022 07:54

Thank you @TeddyBeans ❤️

Have you guys stopped testing of when are you planning to ?

OCM19 · 02/07/2022 09:22
