Due March 2023 ✨👶☀️🌈

[Loouloo]

Hi all lovely people!

Here’s a thread for all March babies 🥰 I got my BFP this morning at 10dpo with a due date on the 10th of March 2023. I suffered a miscarriage at 7 weeks in early March so it feels special that we get our rainbow 🌈 baby around the one year mark!

A little about me: I’m 27, living in Sweden with my fiancé. This is our first child and we’ve really longed for this baby and desperately hoping it will stick this time!

Welcome to this journey, please tell me a little bit about you!

4+6 today, why do the early weeks drag so much 😞

Hiii, I'm 5weeks 5days too! So excited yet so nervous. I have an early scan booked for a week today so I'll be 6weeks 5 days. Hoping to be able to see that everything is okay! :)

Hi everyone! Just found out 2 days ago. Expecting baby #3 in March. Due date 19th by lmp but 24th by my dates

Hi everyone I just thought I would update. I went and had an abdominal scan today and saw a heartbeat I'm 6+5 but measured 6+1 but the tech said that's normal and probably to do with it being an abdominal scan x

Hi everyone, I’ve been keeping up with you all but have been a bit wary of joining - it all seems so early at the moment. Im currently 5+2 and this is my first pregnancy, really hoping all goes well.

Can I ask when people tended to get their first midwife appointments through? I self-referred to my local service a week ago and haven’t heard anything back. Im probably just very early though!

@hannahhh thats great news, congratulations!

It's usually at about 8-10 weeks! We've got a while yet! (Shame) 😬😬😬

That's so exciting! I really want to do this but am terrified they won't see anything and ask me to come back and I'm not sure my anxiety can take it!!! 🤣

Thank you!!

@Houseplantlove @Katlouise24
I'm also 5w 5d today! Hope youre both feeling ok. Im Very excited but also getting a lot of anxiety and worry this time. This is my 3rd pregnancy, i have a 10yr old and 8yr old ❤I've got an early scan booked for 2 weeks time

@Flowerpower8912 this is my first pregnancy, I'm filled with so much worry and nothing is easing it so far. It sucks because I'm also very excited and the worry is outweighing my excitement :(

Hope you're feeling well! Are you booking an early scan or waiting for routine scans?

@Flowerpower8912 oh wait! I just read that you are! Haha I am all over the place today.

@Katlouise24 @Flowerpower8912 I really want to book one for 2 weeks time but am scared to jinx it! I am feeling the same, almost not letting myself enjoy it out of fear!

@Houseplantlove I totally get what you are feeling! I feel the exact same. The scan I've booked cost £89 and my partner (baby's dad) has offered to pay for it as we're both quite anxious over the possibility of losing baby. We both want this so bad. It does suck that the fear outweighs the enjoyment...hopefully later on in the pregnancies we are able to feel more at ease!

@Houseplantlove @Katlouise24 @Flowerpower8912
Your posts are echoing my own worries! I’m trying not to get too invested just in case but not really managing! I also have a scan booked for a couple of weeks time when I’ll be around 7+2. Finding it hard to wait for that though!

Isn't it mad we are all in the same boat!

I will book one but maybe I'll wait a week to book so I'm 7+.

I booked one with my last but miscarried before we got there so I'm scared to do it this time!!!

@Katlouise24 I've had the sore boobs and tiredness but been feeling ok symptom wise. Cramps were bothering me but they've calmed down now.
Has anyone else had many symptoms yet?

@G0ldfinch I got my midwifes letter a few days after referring and I'm booked in to see them for when I'll be 8 weeks

I wish I could just relax and enjoy the pregnancy too but the anxiety takes over. I don't remember feeling like this for my first 2 pregnancies

@Houseplantlove I'm hoping the scan with help ease my anxieties abit 🤞

I’ve not had many symptoms so far. Slight sore boobs, and the occasional wave of sickness that lasts no time at all, but with it feels like menstrual cramps. The only real thing I’m feeling is hungry ALL the time. I eat and 20 minutes later my belly is growling at me. Anyone else feel ravenous?
I should be 7 weeks according to LMP but was dating a few days behind in an early scan.

@RhiRhi1988 I wish I was ravenous! I'm having to force myself to eat more often than not. I have no appetite at all. Which of course is making my partner ask a hundred times a day if I've eaten or if he can go get me anything. He's so sweet.

Oh no @Houseplantlove I’m so sorry to hear that, can understand you’d be wary of early scans this time. I’ll keep my fingers crossed all goes well for you.

Thanks @Flowerpower8912 I hoped I’d hear back from the midwives soon too, but nothing yet. Still, I’m in a busy part of London so I guess I’ll just have to wait!

I am hungry all the time like @RhiRhi1988 but few other symptoms yet!

Hey girls, hope that you're all well and managing to keep cool?

Got my 3+ today at 5 weeks 6 days. I've been a little anxious because symptom wise I'm having sore boobs, nausea when I'm hungry and frequent peeing! Whenever I've been pregnant before I've always been vomiting from the start so I was nervous this one isn't progressing well.

Uploaded the wrong pic sorry!

Hi ladies I also have had some bleeding today but EPU is not open weekends so just going to ride it out until Tuesdays scan and think positive!!

@Babynum2 is it a lot? Mine started yesterday but it's just bits and really inconsistent, finger crossed for you let us know how the scan goes I booked my scan for 8 weeks 5 days so I've got a while to wait yet 😔 xx

@Kt12344 it was on the bed this morning but it's not really heavy. I feel like this pregnancy has thrown everything it can at me and its only week 7
