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!

Hi everyone! Hope it's ok for me to join? 😊 After 2.5 years trying and 1 chemical about a year ago, I've just found out I'm pregnant! Things seem to be progressing better than last time so far but it's only been a few days (period was due yesterday, tested positive the day before!) so I'm terrified of another chemical or an early miscarriage... Especially as we could lose our entitlement to IVF (which we were just waiting for funding approval on)! 😫 Please stick around little one!

Seems a bit more official now!

I am only 4+6..but I know I ovulated late so I'm really less than that! I don't remember being this anxious first time around.
My husband said he'll relax at 12 weeks 🤣

No real symptoms right now. Just a bit tired and some twinges. I was so sick last time from 6 weeks so I'm really hoping I don't have that..although the constant sickness was reassuring in a way 🙈

Morning all!

Welcome and congrats to new members! 🥳💕

So nice reading about those of you who kept the secret and revealed to DP on Father's Day! That's amazing and I'm so impressed as I managed to keep quiet for about 3.4 seconds! Haha.

Sorry for the silence from me. I've been nauseous since waaaaaay before AF was due so now at 5 ish weeks I'm worrying myself that I don't feel sick enough. I'm sure it'll ramp up sometime soon...

My weirdest symptom at the moment is that fizzy drinks taste REALLY fizzy - like I've put sherbet or something in them. Anyone else? Also anyone else waking up super early? Usually between 5 and 6 for me. I'm naturally absolutely not a morning person and I'm so tired!

Hope everyone is feeling alright at the moment and glad for the cooler weather!

Yes to the waking up early!
I usually wake up about 5, but have been up at 3.30am every day this week! Does not pair well with my current fatigued state!

Sorry to hear you've been nauseous! Mine has just kicked in the past couple of days - currently at the stage where eating makes it feel better, but then feel awful when I stop!

TeddyBeans · 24/06/2022 12:24

I've been waking up early this week too! Didn't even realise that was a symptom. It's crazy how pregnancy affects us in such random ways

Hagster · 24/06/2022 14:01

Congrats @Nora11 and @BaBallyboo1986 and welcome!

Yes I'm definitely waking up earlier. Was blaming the heat/light but maybe it's pregnancy, never realised.

And glad I'm not the only one going wildly up and down. Well not glad you're experiencing that, but I'm glad not to be alone!

Hi everyone!
I got my bfp this morning. Due 3/3.
I have a 4 year old DD and 4 early miscarriages (all around week 7 after we had heard heart beat) following today. So this will be my 6th pregnancies and hopefully it'll all go well. 🙏
I have a reassurance scan booked for me at the hospital for the 11th of July. I should be 6 weeks+3 days then.

Sorry to read of your losses. Wishing you alllllll the baby dust for this one 💕

Thank you, ladies. Bit weird to say it but such a comfort to know others have the same weird feelings as me!

Welcome and I'm sorry to hear of your previous losses. I have everything crossed for a sticky bean this time for you x

TeddyBeans · 25/06/2022 09:05

I booked a private viability scan for 16/7. We're going to Turkey on the 18th so want to make sure everything's okay in there before we set off. I had one at 6+6 last time and found it very reassuring.

My line progression is also rather reassuring, finally got to the stage where my test line is as strong as the control line 🥳

Twosidestwoplayers · 25/06/2022 17:40

@TeddyBeans that’s exciting! Only a few weeks away, a nice manageable date to work towards. And great lines!

TeddyBeans · 25/06/2022 21:29

@Twosidestwoplayers it's crazy how quickly time is going this time around. By the time I get to that scan date, I'll be 7+3 😱 How are you getting on?

Twosidestwoplayers · 25/06/2022 21:49

@TeddyBeans eek it’s going so slow for me! And so much more tiring than I remember, needed a two hour nap today!

I’ve got this week off work though and a little family trip away so hoping it will fly - once I hit six weeks if all seems well I’ll register with the midwife.

Lilipa · 26/06/2022 07:11

I had to take the second First response pregnancy test today. I see a line progressing but I'm wondering if it's me trying to see it and making it up in my head?

I'm having my progesterone and beta-HcG levels measured tomorrow and I really hope they are good because I am terrified of a 5th miscarriage!

Lilyduke · 26/06/2022 07:49

@Lilipa your line from today definitely looks darker! I had a strong BFP yesterday morning for the first time following IVF and almost three years of trying. I think I'm still in shock and don't quite believe it. I'm not booked in for a blood test until Thursday so I'm hoping it'll sink in a bit more if the results from that are ok. I've also done a medichecks hcg test and hoping the results from that will be back tomorrow.

Clarps84 · 26/06/2022 07:54

the control line on today’s test is lighter….think you have yourself the beginnings of a dye stealer 😊

Lilipa · 26/06/2022 09:14

@Lilyduke I cross my fingers for you! Sounds like it'll all go perfectly fine! Let us know tomorrow if you'd like, what your beta-HCG results are.

@Clarps84 thank you for taking the time to see my picture and comment. I did not realize the dye stealer but now you say it I see it too. I'm so glad it's not all in my head! I really hope this time will be a successful full term pregnancy!

Quackers1990 · 26/06/2022 09:29

Hi guys , long time reader of ttc posts first time poster thought it would be nice to join talking to people in same situation as me! Got my bfp yesterday at 15dpo (had resisted testing up to this point but had symptoms for about a week 🤢) this would be 2nd child as I already have ds who is 4 later this year ❤️
already ordered some more tests to reassure myself that it will stick. have edd of 3/3/23 which feels a life time away!
wishing everyone all the best with their bfps ❤️

Pink15 · 26/06/2022 09:42

I just got my BFP this morning !! So shocked as I was getting my PMS boob pain but I guess it was pregnancy boob pain! This is baby #2 for me, my son is 1.5 years so similar to a few of you. So excited for this journey together!

Pink15 · 26/06/2022 09:42

Forgot to say my due date is 10/03 x

ChloeN · 26/06/2022 18:46

Just found out I’m expecting my first baby🥰 think I will be due around the 2nd/3rd March! Very excited but still doesn’t feel real! When does it sink in that you’re actually pregnant 🤣

SJ1994 · 26/06/2022 19:05

Hello All! I got a BFP on Friday and another on Saturday after my first full cycle TTC - definitely didn’t expect a BFP so quickly! First baby 🥰 trying not to get too excited as I know anything can happen! Going by first day of my last period I think I’m 4 Weeks 1 Day and due around 4th March!
