Due July 2023

[Allaboard2023]

Hi

I can’t see one yet so just starting a due July 2023!

I’ve had bfp on first response and digital clear blue this week and keen to get chatting to others 🥰

Hi all,

Cautiously joining. 10dpo today and had a faint positive on a cheapie. Took another clear blue this afternoon (as I couldn’t wait for tomorrow and fmu 🙈) and another faint positive. Hoping they get stronger as the days go on. I'd be due 20th July.

@Bertiebean It's such an intense feeling isn't it. Whenever my husband and I talk about the pregnancy I'm saying "If it all works out" He was asking me before about how we'd announce at Christmas if everything went well, I initially joined in but then just couldn't bring myself to think that far ahead.

Aww no, hope it soon eases for you but definitely enjoy the rest. I'm doing the same on the sofa today. Catching covid has at least allowed me to lay low without anyone questioning me!

@ScarletDreams That's a good line for 10dpo! I only found out on what I think was 13dpo but I hadn't been tracking that month & my line then wasn't as strong as that. It's nerve wracking isn't it!

We were discussing this today also - said how we would wait for a scan picture to show people/family at Christmas etc. but I refused to even think it was real.
The days seem to be going to slow and the urge to constantly test is killing me.. I test fmu and mid evening, easy at home ones are super slow to develop, I might get some last frer tomorrow and just do one a week. I think testing is keeping me sane.. Or is it driving me insane?

Hope you're feeling okay, rest up. X

Hi I’m 5w 3 days and autoimmune too. I called my rheumatologist last week and I’ve been put on clexane daily injections. If you contact your dr they might do the same for you. My first positive and I’m constantly worrying but trying to be positive.

I’ve had cramps/ tightening in stomach on and off. My boobs aren’t sensitive at all. I’ve had major acid issues though and I am really hungry. If I don’t eat, I feel sick. My BMI is below recommended so not too worried about putting on weight.

My friend had covid when 6 weeks pregnant and was fine. Delivered a healthy baby, I’m sure will be same for you. Sending you strength x

Another cautious joiner, if that’s okay? I have a short LP so although I’m only 10DPO my period was due today and I got a very faint positive this morning! This is my fourth pregnancy, I have a 4yo but I’ve had two losses in the last 12 months so I’m extremely nervous.

I had a feeling this was the month because I have been bone tired all week and my boobs feel quite sensitive - I can see some others have had similar!

@polkadotdasies88 thank you, fingers crossed for a sticky bean for us all!! Yes, it really is nerve wracking!!

Also taking endless tests to try and reassure myself 😅 anyone else getting a private early scan? Think we're going to get one for next week. Also going to have to tell my manager this week too, earlier than I wanted to, but I have 3 appointments now booked in and we're so short staffed I won't be able to have it off without genuine reason 😬

@Carly2014 It's so reassuring to chat to someone else in the same situation! I've left a message with my Rhumatology nurse this afternoon so hopefully I'll hear back from them tomorrow. I'm also due my arthritis injection this week but don't know what to do whilst I'm still testing positive for Covid. I was telling myself I'd maybe never see two lines on a test and now they're popping up everywhere!!!

I've had cramps too on and off, this morning & yesterday I had an upset stomach so wondering what that's all about. I feel as though I had quite a few symptoms before my bfp but they seem to not be as strong now. I also feel so hungry in evenings!

That's so reassuring to hear about your friend, thank you ❤️

Hello, I am another very cautious joiner please! I don't have a partner and have had IVF, and last month I had a chemical. I have been feeling nauseous since 3 days after my transfer this time. Today was my test day (may have also tested early though!) and I am 4 weeks today and due 16th July.
I am so, so, so anxious! I've been close to a panic attack. I just can't relax, and I want to keep testing but the fear of testing negative is also unreal. Today's FRER looked the same as 2 days ago so of course now I'm fearing the worst. And I've got to tell my boss this week as my job involves manual handling.
And now i feel ungrateful as I know I am so lucky to be in this position at all!! I'm sort of glad to know I'm not the only anxious one here though, it seems very common. Good luck to you all!

@Chaoscontrol It is really hard to believe it at the moment, I think I'm just in the mind set of waiting on something to go wrong.
I'm the same about testing, I've exhausted all of my other tests but I'm on my one step tests now. I'm debating to get another clearblue digital to see if I get 3+ but then I think I'll just get myself in a state if it doesn't say it. Can't win I don't think!

@Totorotoes You're absolutely not alone, I've come so close to a panic attack a few times now just panicking about everything. I think anxiety is normal but please know you are not alone ❤️❤️

Hi all,

So ive just found out im pregnant i was 3 days late on my period! This will be baby no3 totally unplanned and still very much in shock!

Husband still isnt it 100% on board and have been talking about abortion (please dont judge) it’s something i dont want to do! But im also petrified how we will cope with 3 it will be another july baby! So i will have a 4, 2 and newborn all in July!! Couldn’t plan it if I tried!!

Anyone else here have 3 ? Xx

we have decided to keep the little bean but doesn’t stop me feeling super nervous!!!

Congratulations to all the new joiners. I'm still feeling really anxious, I wouldn't wish it on anyone else but it really helps to share in a safe space and hear others stories so thanks for being here x

Cautiously joining - me and my wife are on our second cycle of IUI and have had positive tests on Ultra Earlies.

Need to take test on Wednesday but feeling rotten at the moment - been getting headaches every night and now been getting stabbing pains in my waist - can't help but worry this means it's not going to hold.

Up all night with panic last night and spent the day lying about trying to catch up sleep - think I'm driving myself crazy 🤦‍♀️

@polkadotdasies88 thank you so much, it really does help to hear that. @Coffeeforlife sorry to hear you are so anxious too. But as @polkadotdasies88 says, we are not alone in feeling this way. I think anxiety may oddly be a good sign- it shows that our hormones are changing! At least that's what I am telling myself....

@Totorotoes I'd never thought about the fact hormones could be making the anxiety worse but it makes sense! I feel better now you've said that, thank you ❤️

@polkadotdasies88 no worries, I am just imagining this is like a MASSIVE dose of PMT with all the hormones flying around! 😂

@Totorotoes I love that!!! just closed my eyes for what I thought was ten minutes on the sofa, turns out I nodded off for almost an hour! I'm blaming hormones for that too 😂

Hey 👋

Jumping on as I got my bfp on Friday ! Baby number 4 roughly due the 18th 2 days after DD birthday 🙈 not feeling much yet other than really tired and my boobs are killing me!

How is everyone feeling?

Hi ladies! Just wanted to join this thread as I'm currently on a June one but due 30th June/1st July roughly! Currently 6 weeks and struggling with sickness and nausea so badly x

Hi ladies, congrats on all the new BFPs!

I've just started having cramps and passed a small clot, little bit of reddish brown bleeding. The scan on Thursday morning seems so far away, I am just not optimistic at all ☹️ My symptoms have all but disappeared today too.

@Rutennotou sending hugs, try not to assume the worst. Is there any way they could move the scan up?x

Hi everyone and happy monday, welcome to all the new joiners!

@Rutennotou sorry to hear that, could you call and see if you could move the appointment earlier? Sending warm hugs your way!

For those of you who all complain of morning sickness/nausea, this is a great potential help: nutritionfacts.org/video/natural-treatments-morning-sickness/#:~:text=The%20recommended%20dose%20is%20a,four%20cups%20of%20ginger%20tea.

I'm currently in my 6th weeks (5 weeks 3 days pregnant), and don't have any symptoms apart from slightly bigger/sore boobs. Initially i was a bit worried, but I've been testing Big Fat Positives throughout, and my sister and my mom also had very little symptoms when they are had their kids

Currently taking tests 2 times a day (I know...) and checking every time I'm in the bathroom for any small amount of blood

11dpo today, lines are still faint but I have had a positive digital. Please be a sticky bean🙏
