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!

I'm 8+1 according to an early scan.
Anyone else feeling bone-crushingly tired? I'm used to being very productive and have a busy 3 year old around but I feel like just going up the stairs makes me feel like I need a nap. It's very annoying!

Please could you re-share the link?
This one is broken for me.

Yes! My first symptom was extreme tiredness. But last 4 days it’s been nausea 🤢
I’ve gone off any ‘real’ food and I just want dry carbs or smoothies.
im normally a coffee addict and can’t stomach it.

from LMP I’m 7 + 5, but I wasn’t long off the implant. And my cycle was super long…so I think the baby was defo conceived on June 26th, which makes me closer to 6 weeks + 1? Not sure…
going to book an early scan too for the coming weekend!

Just booked a scan for next week, will be 7+3 from last period. Sooo bloody nervous!!

Good luck @mummyofrb I have mine on Saturday 😬😬 x

@afuckinggoat here you go 😘

@Handmaid2019 how are you doing today? Has the bleeding stopped ? 🤞

@mummyofrb I had my early scan at 7+3, Tiny was so cute! The sonographer pointed out everything to me, from head to feet to yolk sac ❤️ they're starting to really look like a little person by that point!

It is nerve wracking to wait but it'll all be worth it (ever the optimist)

Hi ladies. How is everyone doing? How far along are you? My EDD is around 25th March.

Im booked in for an early scan next Monday, so I should be around 6+2. Am I right in thinking that there probs wont be much to see? Potentially hear a heartbeat but its still so early? Its a reassurance scan but im already not feeling reassured haha. I still haven't told ANYONE in rl (other than my partner ofc).

Still feels very surreal and I am terrified to say the words 'I am pregnant' out loud. I feel so daft but the worry is so much, I need to relax 🙈xx

@TeddyBeans aww I will be in bits!! I am so 50/50 some minutes I'm super excited the next I'm worrying that I'll have the same experience as last time got to keep positive though!! I think i recognise your name from one of the other threads I was in! Xxx

Hiya can I have the FB link please x

Hey @Pink15 thanks for checking up on me. Bleeding has stopped, yes. I've called epu and I'm going in on Wednesday for another scan.

I'm sure that my dates are correct, there's no way I can just be 5 weeks, my periods are very regular. I've been having positive pregnancy tests for almost 4 weeks now. Symptoms are as crazy strong as ever. Going to contact my gp tomorrow to see if I can get some anti-emetics.

@alotoftutus you should be able to use this one xx

I'm just coming up to 5weeks and I'm so tired, I'm normally a real night owl but struggling after work. I normally do a bootcamp exercise class 3 time's a week but I just couldn't manage it today. I didn't think the tiredness would start so early?

@mummyofrb I've supported a friend through MC and I saw that up and down-ness in her a lot through the early weeks. It's completely natural to worry, there's no way you can know for sure one way or another until you have that scan and I get that ❤️

I've been on a lot of threads so it's entirely possible 🤣 my ability to retain usernames is shockingly bad though and for that, I apologise

You might be able to see the yolk sac and fetal pole at 6+2 but it's pretty early to have a scan. You probably won't hear the heartbeat, I didn't get to hear Tiny's at my scan (7+3) but it was clearly visible on screen. Is there a reason you chose to have the scan so early? Bleeding or something?

@TeddyBeans ah thats good to hear, I will try not think too much then. After my second loss the nurse at the epu gave me a direct number to call when I fell pregnant again. So I kept that in mind and thought, why not! Had some spotting but im not too worried about it and think it was implantation xxx

Hi everyone 👋 not exactly sure how far along I am as no LMP to go off, but based on when I think we conceived I'm around 5+5. So due date should be 23rd March. First pregnancy for me and a big surprise but happy!

I haven't really experienced many symptoms so far... More tired than usual and have been feeling nauseous in the evenings but that's it so far. Tempted to book an early scan but can't decide whether to just be patient and wait for my dating scan.

@Missy95 that's fair enough! If they don't see much they'll probably book you a rescan in a week or so to check progress. They'll tell you all that anyway, I'm sure ❤️

Awh thank you for the reassurance, its so helpful xx

@Bee16 congratulations! Don't jinx feeling okay, it'll just make it worse if the symptoms hit hard in a week or so's time 🙈 re early scans, they're great if you're sure on your dates and the scan matches up to that, not so great if you're not 100% and end up going too early. It can cause a lot of stress and anxiety if you go expecting to see a 7 week baby and come away with a 6 week fetal pole and no heartbeat, for example

Hi. Anyone else feeling it in their clothes yet??? EDD 24th March and swear the bloat is making bottoms tight!! 🙈

I am 10000% bloated, I have had my partners pj bottoms on most the day 😂 I find walking and light exercises helps, but im a bit too tired to be bothered to move haha xx

@Missy95 the tiredness doesn't help. I've been trying to push through the tiredness and make myself get out walking too. Hopefully the bloat settles a bit of I'll be in maternity bottoms next week at this stage. 😂😂

@Mrs2022 hi my bloating was so bad at the start too I looked like I was 6months gone. It's calmed down now just this week I am 7&5 . Also feel so tired having to nap after work 😴
