Due October 2023

[Needtobuildabridge]

I thought I'd make this for anyone receiving their BFPs in the next few weeks!

Currently exactly 4 weeks. Still super early, especially after an early MC last time, but fingers crossed for a sticky bean this time!

Evening everyone!

I hope I can join you all on this crazy journey 🙈

I had got my very 1st faint line on Tues @ 8 dpo on an FRER. Done another one today @ 11 dpo & got 2 strong lines 🥰 so I'm currently 5+2, due 11th October. I have irregular cycles, last period was 5th Jan, positive OPK on 30th Jan, so they may change dates at my daring scan.

I have 3 girls 13, 8 & my youngest is 6 next Sunday.
Expecting baby #4, after ttc for 3 months. Had a slight 'uh oh' 😳 moment when it sank in, as I had flashbacks of how horrendous my last pregnancy was. Hopefully this one is different 🤞🏼

I am 4+5 today but have just had a little cramping and bleeding 😔 will see how it is over the weekend and decide what to do from there.

What is everyone's cramping like? I had very intense constant cramping last week for the whole week which I couldn't ignore, once I hit 4 weeks it seemed to ease off and go away. I'm now 4 weeks 5 days and the cramping has come back today- it feels just like my period is going to start which is worrying me😩

Hi all hope it’s okay if I join? First of all congrats to everyone on this thread I. Hope everyone has a healthy pregnancy and 9 months.

i got my BFP 4 days after Mother Nature not turning up I thought what the heck I’m rarely ever late, according to my last LMP due on the 13th October which would make me 5wks today, i don’t know how to feel about this pregnancy as my last 2 have ended in early MC’s. I obviously want to be excited as this would be my first child. My partner can’t contain his excitement and this pregnancy is rather special,. I lost my nan with whom meant the world to me round about the same time i would have conceived I can’t help but feel a connection specially as we weren’t even trying to get pregnant. (Sorry long post) reading some of your comments has really made me a bit more relaxed if ever that was possible

@amybooth I'm 4 weeks+1 and I'm getting quite bad cramps too. Sometimes just achey cramps like period and then some kinda stabbing pains.

I suffer with endometriosis so I'm finding it hard to tell what's normal or not. I'm going to see how the weekend goes and call the GP on Monday if it's no better just to be safe.

I know it's super hard but try not to worry, hopefully it's all just normal pregnancy cramping.

This is exactly me! I'm 6+1 been having aches on and off and in my back this time I crnt remember if I had them this much with my 1st. They rnt painful just really dull aching feel like av been doing a workout 🤣🤣 kick off the most when I'm in work on my feet for a while

Congratulations on your bfp 🥰

This is exactly how I feel today! I’ve had cramps on and off since 4 weeks I’m 6 tomorrow but it’s just worrying me so much 😞 had to take paracetamol a couple of times the pain sort of just hits. My pain also sometimes gives me like a leg ache similar to when on my period is anyone the same as this 😩

I've been told that the cramping is just our bodies starting to stretch and make room, which makes sense but sometimes they're just so intense it's difficult not to worry

It really does make you worry I get that! but I suppose it's a good sign aswell just our bodies getting ready to house our little ones! If you feel too uncomfy tho epu might be able to put your mind at ease x

@frankie15 I permanently feel like I'm about the start my period. Currently 6+2 and it's so disconcerting! Today we especially bad, and I'm so worried that it's the beginning of MC.

This can be so hard. I'm glad we have this group for support.

@Needtobuildabridge it's nice to no we rnt alone in feeling the way we do!

I'm currently in work and I keep needing to sit because I feel so uncomfy and crampy. I had my son in lock down so the first three months I spent it in isolation with my feet up!

I actually thought this little bean wasn't sticking because I had implantation bleed so it's made me a lot more anxious this time round

Hi everyone!

would love to join… got my BFP really early. A few weeks ago now.. almost a week before AF was due. Think I’m just shy of 6 weeks pregnant and already have vile morning sickness! Is anyone else struggling with it already?

Hi everyone!
Tentative joiner to the group.. nervous of tempting fate I guess! I went through IVF and had my FET on Jan 27th. Positive test last week and so it looks like I'm 4+5, due date 15th October.
So relieved to see that I'm not the only one symptom-free... never thought I'd be willing myself to feel nauseous or to have sore boobs as much 🤣
Bloods drawn Tues and today. Will be a nervous wait until Monday for HCG beta results! Wishing everyone the very best of luck ❤️

Hi everyone, I hope I can join?. I’m around 6+1 with our 2nd. So far I’ve not been physically sick but I’m feeling really nauseous-hence being awake at this time. Good luck to everyone!

Is anyone else waking up super early compared to normal?
I’ve been struggling sleeping which is not like me at all, and I can’t go back to sleep when I wake at 5.30 ish.

don’t think I feel sick but definitely have sore boobs!

@Natacat 5:30 for the last three days. Up multiple times in the night for a wee!! Normally sleep until 7/7:30 and don't get up!!!

@katherine123x i don’t seem to need a wee, regardless of how much more I’m drinking I don’t seem fully hydrated.

but I’m getting the vivid dreams and then I’m just wide awake.
maybe just anxiety over previous losses I’m not sure but I really did want a lie in today

@Natacat yeah it's probably both for me needing a wee and anxiety! Oh and hubbys snoring ....... 🙄
Fingers crossed for you!

Woke up today with some bad anxiety. Think I need to stop looking at other boards and reading about loss ... considering telling parents today for mental support!

@Natacat I haven't been waking early but I've been waking up loads during the night and just basically been sleeping terribly. Definitely think it's anxiety related.

I did a CB dating test today and it said 3+ weeks. I'm 5+2 so I'm really pleased that I'm where I'm supposed to be. Maybe I can chill out a bit 😬

Hi all, I have been through IVF and had an FET on 31st Jan. Got my BFP on Wednesday and have been feeling very nauseous ever since. This is my 1st time and been waiting for so long! According to app I'm 4wks+2 and due 19th Oct. Have a blood test with my clinic on Monday for confirmation so just praying that the 5 positive tests I have aren't a cruel joke 🤦‍♀️

@Natacat omg me too! Usually I sleep in until at least 7.30am, now I am waking up at 4.30/5am and can’t get back to sleep even though I feel shattered. I keep waking up starving too but then in the day when I eat I get so bloated and don’t feel hungry it’s so weird.

I'm 4+2 weeks today and just got 2-3 weeks on CB - first time I have ever seen that as with previous mcs it’s never shifted above 1-2 so I’m relieved! Hopefully I can relax a little now and stop feeling so anxious

@Hopefulx hi hoepful. Same dates as me. I got 1-2 Thursday! Not sure when to do another. I'd love to see it on digital!! Did you do one before this?

Hi all. I am a second time Mum and got my BPF yesterday after a FET on 30 January. I have seen there is a Facebook group, please could you send the link again? Congratulations to everyone and wishing you all a healthy 9 months. Ive seen there are a few other IVF mamas in here and so if you are first timers and need any advice etc please feel free to reach out. Xx
