@Meganlouise97 I'm taking bog standard folic acid from Tesco 🤣 Also going to pick up some Vitamin D this weekend now we're heading into Autumn

I'm taking Boots own but I also take 5mg of folic acid, prescribed from the doctor, because I'm overweight.

Got my 3+ today at 4+5 so happy things are progressing. I get an early scan through the miscarriage clinic but not sure when, hopefully I don’t have to wait too long for it, I think last time it was at 7 wks. I’m taking high dose folic acid and vitamin d (plus progesterone for mcs)

Lovely to see lots of new BFPs

I'm taking Boots own pregnancy supplement plus an Omega 3 supplement. I'm vegetarian, so also keeping an eye on my nutrients more broadly - usually we drift more vegan at home, but I've added eggs, cheese and yogurt back into my diet a bit more (at least for as long as I can stomach them).

Can I tentatively join please?

Just got my BFP last night, calculating me at an early 4+2 today. Oh what a long road ahead 😣

I’ve have had 3 previous losses and 1 gorgeous 3yo boy. I’m so apprehensive and anxious already.

I was sick this morning though (already!) and that has only happened in the pregnancy with my LB so trying to be hopeful but not too hopeful! So mega crampy which makes me more anxious.

Gah. I hate the first few months of pregnancy. Turns me into a mess!

Hello guys hope your all well! Thanks for your messages ❤️ little update, after my little bleed yesterday (pretty much just spotting but red so it scared me) the EPU reassured me it was normal and to just monitor. No more blood since for 24 hours, no pain or anything, and I seem to be back to my usual pregnancy cm! Feeling the wrath of symptoms today, tiredness, nausea, pregnancy rhinitis so I thinking this is good news?

I'm feeling much more positive today, still nervous and I think I will be till my first scan.

I have my booking in appointment at the end of the month too.

What a couple of stressful days!

@Essexgalhere @Theowlwhowasafraid I've been checking out these websites too Thankyou ❤️

I take folic acid with vitamin d, a probiotic tablet and Floradix 20ml per day. I'm a vegetarian, should I be taking omega 🤔

@isitaline97 that’s such wonderful news I’m really happy everything is ok x

Hi everyone....Got terrible cramps this evening. Hoping all well - I'm almost 6 weeks so just hoping it's all stretching and normal.

Is this something you'd bother EPU with? It could just be trapped wind 🫠

Hi all, joining this thread after getting my BFP yesterday. Only 4W4days!

I have a one year old so slightly nervous about the small age gap. It took over a year to conceive my first so this happening on the first time was such a shock!

Hope everyone is feeling well. My sickness hasn't started yet thankfully 🙃 keeps fingers crossed

Anyone else suffering from mood swings at the moment? I feel really bad for DH having to put up with me

@bossgirl94 ME! I flipped over getting the wrong cupcake flavour when I wanted vanilla and got chocolate 😅

@bossgirl94 yes mood swings, tender boobs and could also eat everything in sight 😵‍💫😅

@bellaolive I've not gotten to the crazy hunger stage yet but I do remember that with my first.

@bossgirl94 not too much but last week before I got bfp my DP said I was being really short with him. After my bfp he said ah that explains why you were being short with me 😆

Ticked over to 5 weeks today! Was super hungry all last week but increasingly drifting in the direction of feeling a smidge queasy. Not nauseous by any means, but definitely having to force myself to eat a bit more than last week.

Mood swings wise, given the drama OH put me through yesterday (involved an emergency vet visit) I think I have been saintly. 🙄

@Melusina123 sounds a bit stressful! What pet(s) do you have?

Boobs have definitely ramped up in soreness a bit (I don't need to continuously prod them anymore!). No sickness at all (only 4+2 so still early days) and I was always hungry before my BFP so that's nothing new for me 😂

@OrangeTable my DH always teases me and in the last week or so I just haven't been taking it very well 😂😂

@bellaolive i feel like I'm the only one who doesn't have any tender boobs get. But then I always get them ahead of AF so I wasn't surprised when I didn't get it and I got a BFP: maybe it will come back again in a few weeks but appreciating the non hurting boobs while I have them 😂

@EdinburghGirl1 I feel like as soon as you get a BFP it suddenly makes sense 😂😂

@OrangeTable yes my DP is the same 😂

@bossgirl94 yup of definitely does. I know it will only get worse 😆

@bossgirl94 I thought it was just me too. 4+5 and no sore boobs. But tender nips and sometimes they feel slightly heavy but that’s with me over-analyzing them!

The exhaustion is pretty real though, and the higher RHR

@AmericanGirl915 omg mine also feel heavy at times!! I'm also exhausted all the time

@Melusina123 I'm similar in terms of hunger now - I had put on 5lbs since coming back from our holiday and getting my BFP but now the weight is ticking back down slightly. Not nauseous or sick but have a bit of an 'off' feeling

@RugbyGirl1 we've got a cat, who now needs eye drops 9 times a day courtesy of OH's absent-mindedness and is incredibly unimpressed by this. 🙄

@AmericanGirl915 are you tracking RHR on a Fitbit/etc? I've taken mine off because I think RHR watching might drive me crazy. But it was definitely higher before I stopped tracking.

My boobs are a bit twingy but not really much of note, sort of comes and goes throughout the day.

@Sunshine0987 I was enjoying the extra appetite, am sorry to see it go! 😂

Me me me 🙋🏼‍♀️ my mood swings are awful, and there have been some random tears... I feel nauseous most of the time (only actually been sick a few times). I'd say the tiredness is the real kicker - feel like I need to sleep 24/7

But, otherwise - all good 😂
