Just got my bfp yesterday and EDD is early April 2024. Anyone else similar and feel like keeping each other company?

@LouH93 fourth pregnancy but hopefully first child 🤞🏼 my worst symptom seems to be dizziness! 🥴

Itsasomething · 30/07/2023 14:42

Yes @Ginny26 !! Been living in joggers as it's the only thing that still fits, although all the cakes recently probably are playing a part too 😂.

LouH93 · 30/07/2023 14:42

aw fingers crossed!!!

i haven't really had any symptoms yet (4weeks yesterday) apart from i keep waking up at 4am and then cant get back to sleep so in very tired!

Ginny26 · 30/07/2023 15:12

@Itsasomething the cake is definitely playing a part over here too 😂

Olivia199 · 30/07/2023 15:22

Second pregnancy, second child over here. I got morning sickness with my first at around 6 weeks. This time round I've got insane sense of smell, crazily vivid dreams and... sickness 😷 like, it already started. At 4 weeks. This doesn't feel fair (or a good sign of what's to come!)

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 30/07/2023 17:40

Oo the sickness here too. Not been sick yet but it’s been pretty close a few times. I’ve also been really tired and extra grumpy.

With my first DD, I felt really sick for weeks and really tired. With DD2, no sickness but extreme tiredness. I’m hoping the sickness will go quickly.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 30/07/2023 17:40

Oh and the nose of a bloodhound at the moment. Not helping with the sickness.

Bertiebean · 30/07/2023 18:05

@Ginny26 oh my gosh me too! I feel huge and it’s pure bloat

LoobyLoo92 · 30/07/2023 19:38

@Olivia199 crazy vivid dreams here too! Had these and been super tired and had super sensitive smell like you @BeingATwatItsABingThing since 4 weeks. Almost 5 weeks now and the nausea is not a problem for me yet. My last pregnancy I had nausea from the beginning but my first pregnancy I didn't get much nausea either. I wonder why symptoms differ between your own pregnancies 🤷‍♀️

Hi everyone, hope it's ok I join. My edd is 1st april. This will be my 2nd baby I have a 2 and a half year old boy! My lines are getting darker but definitely doesnt stop the anxiety if alls ok I think ill book an early scan. My symptoms so far are nausea, sore breasts and peeing alot more ! Hope your all doing good!

Srtdr · 31/07/2023 01:47

Hello everyone! Congratulations to you all. My EDD is the 10th April. Found out today. We have a 2 year old and so excited to see how she reacts!

I have no idea! I assumed with DD2 that she was a boy because my symptoms were different. 😂 Massive shock when they said girl in the scanning room.

Due date twins! (According to my app anyway 😂)

I was so excited to tell DD1 about DD2 because she’d been asking for a sibling for ages. When we did tell her, she cried and said she’d changed her mind! 🤦‍♀️ She’s the best big sister now and there’s 6.5 years between them. She’ll be 10yrs older than DC3 and DD2 will be 3.5yo.

naggy095 · 31/07/2023 07:13

Hi everyone, hope you're all feeling ok. My nausea last week was due to a stomach bug so no HG just yet 😅

I'm a little bit worried now though. I did a CB digital this morning expecting for a 3+ but instead I got 1-2 😞 I didn't drink much, if any, water during the night so it shouldn't have diluted my wee to the point of the test showing only 1-2. Has anyone else had this before and it be ok?

Greenvelvetdress · 31/07/2023 08:13

@naggy095 sorry you're feeling worried. I don't have any experience of this but I would say to try not do these tests because in general they don't end up reassuring you and actually make you feel worse.

I know it's really difficult, especially as I've had 3 losses but I just try to concentrate on one day at a time and think that nothing I do or don't do at this point can really change what happens.

I hope you have a good day 🌺

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 31/07/2023 08:39

Completely echo what @Greenvelvetdress is saying. Those tests aren’t accurate enough to be reassuring but I know how difficult it is not to test.

Housenoob · 31/07/2023 08:40

4 weeks 3 days today and I don't have any symptoms apart from mild cramps which make me think I'm about to come on my period any time now! I luckily didn't have much sickness in my previous pregnancy but I remember feeling constantly queasy and hungover, not sure when that began last time.

naggy095 · 31/07/2023 08:53

@Greenvelvetdress @BeingATwatItsABingThing thank you both. My GP has requested a blood test for hcg so I'm going to go today to have that done. Getting some AF type cramps today as well, not looking good 😞

BB2023 · 31/07/2023 11:31

5 weeks today for me. Not many symptoms here just sore boobs still. I have been feeling a little sick so don't want to eat as much as normal but hasn't put me off eating all together 🤣
I slipped down the stairs on Saturday and spent 8 hours in A&E. Have a broken ankle so have to rest and they've put me on blood thinning injections for as well. All my weight went on my ankle and I caught myself and lowered myself to sitting so didn't fall on my tummy/back/bum or anything. I'm a bit scared now though. We have an early scan booked for when I'm nearly 8 weeks so will need to keep everything crossed that things are ok xx

first pregnancy for me too!!
And also no symptoms, at 4+4. Just some gas, but I have that when Im not pregnant, so Im not sure I can consider it a symptom!

Also cautiously optimistic, but you read so much about loss, you dont want to get too ahead of yourself!

Windowboxer · 31/07/2023 12:29

Hi everyone. Can I tentatively join too?!

I'm very early still - EDD 11 April. Had a early miscarriage earlier this year so pretty nervous atm.

I got a faint BFP on 11dpo (based on my flow app estimate) and picture is from 13dpo. Symptoms wise I mainly feel like I'm hungover and have some insomnia.

Should I be worried that the line isn't really strong yet? Think I'm going to book a private HCG/progesterone test later this week.

Anyone due April 2024?
Greenvelvetdress · 31/07/2023 12:43

Congratulations @Windowboxer 🎉 nothing to be concerned about I don't think, looks like a good line but if the appointment will reassure you then it get it booked 🌺

LouH93 · 31/07/2023 13:05

@ASGIRC oh im with you there with the gas! Definitely a symptom, its constant 🤣

ASGIRC · 31/07/2023 13:13

@LouH93 but I have it even when I'm not pregnant, which is why I'm not really considering it a symptom!! 😂😂
