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!

@AlongcameLainey it is stressful,
There's one semi near- but I don't want to be sat around hours when my son would be sat in the car with DH and he will only drink milk straight from me so don't want to stress him by being away from him

@Jadeypie yes definitely the right number as I text a different question and she replied to that. But still ignored about my weeks.
What did you use to work out your weeks? Maybe I'm further ahead than I think 🤔

Jadeypie · 11/02/2023 17:47

@BambiBooBoo I have been tracking for a couple of months and I have gone from my last period I could be a week out but I tested positive a week late. It's hard to know for certain untill dating scan. I did do a digital which gave me a idea when I conceived which matched up with everything. Have u done one of them? X

BambiBooBoo · 11/02/2023 17:50

@Jadeypie no I don't do digitals
Today would be exactly 6 weeks ago from LMP so maybe I'm 6 weeks rattan than the 5 one of my apps is saying

Jadeypie · 11/02/2023 17:56

@BambiBooBoo I've heard those digitals can be bad triggers av not done one again. But yeh I defo think you should go by 6 weeks and if your more bonus! You won't be less than 5 x

BambiBooBoo · 11/02/2023 18:03

@Jadeypie I got a false positive from one before so no way will I use one again

Thank you that's helpful x

Jadeypie · 11/02/2023 18:24

@BambiBooBoo omg really? That's awful I got a false negative 🙈

Hope you feel Abit more at ease soon x

I wish someone had told me about cramping before I got pregnant! I’ve had it on and off for the past few days and I know it’s most likely normal and the uterus/ligaments stretching but it’s making me really anxious

iloveeggs · 11/02/2023 19:18

@Bee1994 I'm there with you!!

Smiffette · 11/02/2023 19:25

Hey,
New here! Got my BFP with an early test on Tuesday, so I'm only actually going to be 4 weeks on Monday! So super early.

This will be my second and last, DD 2.5.

I had a MMC in 2019 before my DD So feeling quite anxious about this so minding wishing the next few weeks away until scan day.

Congratulations to everyone else

I hear ya! I've been really nauseous the last few days but this evening been feeling small cramps now and again. My brain automatically goes to AF arriving 🤦‍♀️

BambiBooBoo · 11/02/2023 19:37

Got hold of EPU as cramping and spotting turned red and more of it
"No one can do scans on the weekend as we don't have a doctor here"

All they have said to do is go to A&E to have bloods done. But I can't go as have a 15month old and no one to look after him. DH can't keep him in the car as I have no idea how many hours I'd be waiting up there 😩 and driving back and forth isn't an option.

And again, Midwife is ignoring me.

Why do I feel like no one cares?

Jadeypie · 11/02/2023 20:45

@Bee1994 same over here! I crnt even remember if I was like this with DS either. Feel like I have got pregnant and suddenly forgot what it was like 🤣🤣

Jadeypie · 11/02/2023 20:47

@BambiBooBoo oh my heart breaks for you what a horrible situation! What about 111 that's all I can think of xx

adayatatime23 · 11/02/2023 21:19

@BambiBooBoo its so hard, I was in same situation with my first pregnancy that sadly ended in MC. Phoned EPU all week with brown discharge and they explained it could be implantation. All they could advise is if I began to cramp or bleed properly I could safely take paracetamol - then I guess if that wasn’t working you would go in as an emergency. I ended up miscarrying on a Sat and couldn’t get a scan appointment til the Monday but there was really nothing they could do except confirm what I knew, it’s a tricky one. Thinking of you and hoping your situation does end up okay 💕

katherine123x · 11/02/2023 21:31

Told my parents tonight and feel soooo much better for it. If anyone is one the fence with it, just do it!! I think the best advice for us all with everything is to do what is best and what feels right for you!

iloveeggs · 11/02/2023 21:33

@katherine123x Awh I'm delighted for you ❤

katherine123x · 11/02/2023 21:35

@iloveeggs thank you. Just can't explain it. Now I've told them I feel so much more relaxed which is better for us anyway! Feels nice to talk about it and have support if needed!

I've decided I'm going to tell my mum and dad tomorrow! I was going to wait until after our blood test on Monday but I just want them to know already! I've been keeping it a secret that we had our FET already for too long lol.

SEG92 · 11/02/2023 21:42

Hello! Just found this thread, second month TTC for my first child and got these results earlier today! Still can't believe it, I did it when my husband was out (he's due home soon, and I can't wait to tell him!)

Looking at them and still dont believe the lines are there 😭❤️ wishing us all a happy and healthy pregnancy xx

Due October 2023
katherine123x · 11/02/2023 21:55

@bambi102 good for you. I'm sure they'll be delighted!!!

katherine123x · 11/02/2023 21:56

@SEG92 welcome and congratulations. When are you due??

SEG92 · 11/02/2023 22:04

@katherine123x thank you so much ❤️ according to Flo, October 17th.

What about you? I'm nervous about ringing the docs on Monday, I still can't believe it's real! Xx

iloveeggs · 11/02/2023 22:25

@SEG92 Congrats!!!

Malzzy · 11/02/2023 22:29

Hi all, been trying for a number of years for no.2- had a BFP this week finally, but I just can't relax. It's the the furthest I've got in 5 years, I've had some cramping but mostly stopped now, line progression isn't bad- I know I can't do much to sway which way this is going to go, but I'm just in a bit of a hopeless daze. The waiting is excruciating.

Beckabo · 11/02/2023 22:45

I've not posted since I last panicked about spotting on Tuesday 😅but since then I had brown spotting yesterday which I phoned the midwife who basically just told me to keep an eye on it and today I had more that was bright red with a small clot. I've not bled since but I've booked an private scan for tomorrow afternoon just to check if I'm miscarrying again. Fingers crossed the small clot was the tiny fibroid they found from my last miscarriage but I'm not feeling very hopeful cause everywhere basically says clots are miscarriage. Please send any luck to me for a viable pregnancy!
