Congrats everybody! So exciting 💗 can I join in too please? Got my bdp at 8dpo and due 11th April after over two years of trying and a chemial pregnancy! Still can't believe it 🤣 stopped testing a few days ago when I got a dye stealer so it's feeling really weird now just waiting till my early scan at 7 weeks!

Only consistent symptom so far is boob pain, can anyone recommend a decent bra for it? Don't know how much longer I can cope with it 🙃

Ttcmumma · 08/08/2023 08:34

Hey girls, just checking if this is a dye stealers or faulty tests?

Endogal · 08/08/2023 11:15

@Ttcmumma how many dpo are you? I'd be leaving towards them being dye stealers as you do still have a control line... have you got less sensitive tests?

Ttcmumma · 08/08/2023 11:17

@Endogal I should be about 19dpo now. Ah yes maybe the low sensitivity didn't help. I don't have any other ATM but I did get 2-3 weeks on a clear blue digital yesterday. I'm just really anxious so over testing lol

TryingForBabyFirstTime · 08/08/2023 11:19

Congratulations all! Just got my BFP yesterday so should be expecting an April baby 🤞🤗❤️

Endogal · 08/08/2023 11:21

@Ttcmumma in that case I'd say they are likely dye stealers! I got a dye stealer on an easy@home at 16dpo and they are less sensitive than those tests :)

Ttcmumma · 08/08/2023 11:24

@Endogal oh yay! I didn't realise they come this soon. Thank you, I may stop testing now before I stress myself out with weird test results haha

Foreverhopeful23 · 09/08/2023 15:44

I'm due 12th April. 3rd baby although other 2 are much older now ( 12 and 16 ) . Any body else still a bit crampy ? Tips on dealing with constipation ( sorry tmi )

Growinganaries · 09/08/2023 23:58

Congratulations! These are the same stats as me, due 3rd April & found out what feels like ages ago on 20th July!
happy 6 weeks :)

Ek21 · 10/08/2023 09:09

Hi, new here. Also due mid April, got bfp on Monday! Can I ask, what is a dye stealer please??

Ttcmumma · 10/08/2023 09:10

@Ek21 when the hcg gets high enough the test line becomes darker than the control line as it takes some of the dye from the control line x

Ttcmumma · 10/08/2023 09:11

@Ek21 and congrats!

Ek21 · 10/08/2023 09:14

@Ttcmumma oh thanks, never heard of that before. First time baby :) congrats to all on their bfp's, I am over the moon!😊

cdn298 · 10/08/2023 09:23

@Ek21 congratulations 🥳

I have woken up with such a bad back, feels like sciatica 😫😫 had the same with DS but not until later on xx

Ek21 · 10/08/2023 10:12

@cdn298 that's horrible. How far along are you? So far my symptoms are just being so unbelievably hungry and some cramping.

cdn298 · 10/08/2023 10:29

I'm only 4+1 weeks so still really early.

I did pull my back a couple of weeks ago and it felt similar so could just be that again x

Hi everyone- super early positive here - first faint line on Monday 7th (9DPO) on an IC, and then a proper positive on a FRER yesterday lunch time at 11DPO. First baby. Trying not to get too excited, we’ve been TTC since December 2022 and we are booked for our first fertility assistance appt in September because I have PCOS. So I can’t quite believe our luck really. Just hoping it sticks! Would be due mid April!

My sense of smell seems to have ramped up, but other than that I’ve got sensitive boobs and I’m very crampy (but both of those are normal PMS symptoms for me). Next milestone will be actually missing my period at the weekend.

Belles28 · 11/08/2023 07:41

Heeey ladies! Many congrats to you all, exciting (& frickin nerve wracking) times 🫶🏽 currently 5+2 with baby number 2... super tired, hungry, emotional & today have woken up with the most sensitive nipps 😵 ouch! DD will be 2y 9m when baba arrives - EDD 10th Apr xx

RedRobyn2021 · 11/08/2023 12:24

Hello congratulations everyone

I just found out last night I'm only 3 weeks. I had HG last time but have spoken with the docs this morning and they are prescribing me.

My DD will be 3yr3 months when baby comes.

Is anyone else excited to have a spring baby? DD was born in February and there was still snow and ice out then.

Nervous to have 2 tbh I'm reading Sarah Ockwell smith's the second baby book and finding parts helpful.

missmae · 13/08/2023 09:33

Good morning everyone, congrats on the bfp’s! 💖
got my first faint positive on Tuesday at 10dpo, decided to test then due to my right nipple leaking on 8dpo!!
Very strong positives yesterday and today! 🤎App is putting me at 4+2. EDD 19th April, so excited to join you all.
Will be baby no.1 (technically no.2 following a loss at 19 weeks in April this year)
hope you’re all doing well!

@RedRobyn2021 i also have had HG, mine usually starts around week 6. The joys!!

as of symptoms, the last week it’s been headaches, sleeping earlier/waking early, hot flashes, increased cm 🫣 increased appetite, nausea upon waking then going once I’ve ate, light cramps and backache, peeing more, and heartburn. That’s it so far 🤣

Misty84 · 13/08/2023 20:51

@missmae So sorry for your loss at 19 weeks- that’s awful!!! I thought after 12 we wouldn’t have to worry but I guess the worry will continue! 😟
(My first pregnancy was 1.5years ago and ended at 10 weeks. Been trying for over 4 years to have a baby so I’m praying this is finally our time! 5+1 today!)

missmae · 13/08/2023 21:15

@Misty84 oh don’t let my experience worry you tho!! I’m going to try and not worry at all and be relaxed! Oh 4 years bless you. Sorry for your loss as well. I’m praying and hoping everything goes well for us! 💖

Misty84 · 13/08/2023 21:44

Oh that’s good @missmae, thank you for the reassurance and I’m glad you’re feeling relaxed! I’m actually far more relaxed than last time despite what happened. Fingers crossed for everyone on this thread and our April babies!🙂🙏

Ellenn · 16/08/2023 06:51

Hey everyone! I recognise a few names here already ☺️ I’m currently 4+6 wks so still super early (embryo transfer). Got my scan booked on 31st august which is super scary I really hope I make it till then 🤞

hope it’s ok to join, think I would be due April if this wee embryo sticks around! We haven’t managed to conceive any babies yet so this would be our first with 3 years of TTC.

so far only have nausea 🤢 which isn’t too pleasant but at least it reminds me I might be growing a baby!
