I'm currently 11dpo. Had a two faint positives yesterday followed by a positive clear blue this morning. This will hopefully be my second pregnancy due around 14th May by dates. Just wondered if anybody wanted to share the journey, symptoms and advice 🥰

Hello,
I just did a test this morning which was positive so I will be due at the start of May if all goes well. This will be my second baby too.
It feels like such a long time ago since I last was pregnant even though it was only 2 years ago! I need to look up all the food that's off limits again

Hello and congratulations!

I had a positive test on Tuesday. I believe my due dates around 7th May.

Trying not to get too excited! As we lost our baby at (20 weeks) last August, only found out we were expecting 2 days before. Very traumatic and my partner's first baby. Funeral followed etc.

I'm 41 and have a 19 and 14 year old.

I've been having terrible gas and heartburn that I never ever get 😂

Fingers crossed 🤞 xx

@neverenoughwine I'm most upset by the fact that we can no longer have smoked salmon. I swear this wasn't the advice 2 years ago.

I remember getting out of the hospital with my first and wanting to stop at the shops on the way home for some pate, brie and wine!

DearTheodosiaa · 01/09/2023 16:02

Hi everyone!
I had some faint positives and a 1-2 week on clearblue on Monday with a due date of 6th May. I'm so happy but trying not to get ahead of myself. I'll do another test at the weekend and hopefully I'll have some progression!!
This will be my second baby - I already have an 18 month old.
Has anyone referred themselves to the midwife yet? I don't want to jinx anything yet!

I'm really going to miss smoked salmon too. Also 2 portions of oily fish a week and pate! Eugh

Hiiii, Yes, I have. In fact I have an appointment tomorrow to book in. But only because of our experience last year.
I'm dreading it as I was trying not to get excited. Xx

Hi everyone, hope there’s room for a little one!

I tested had a very faint positive on tuesday (I was only 7 or 8 dpo I think - promised myself I wouldn’t test that early but you know what it’s like 🤯😂) have seen some like progression and got a 1-2 on clear blue yesterday so I’m hopeful! Should be 10 or 11dpo today and think due date around 15th may.

I had a mmc back in march at about 8/9 weeks and needed an erpc so I’m really anxious but keeping positive!!!

Symptom wise I felt really nauseous yesterday and this morning but it’s disappeared this afternoon, I’m absolutely knackered but other than that feel completely normal. I feel like I want some symptoms to appear to make me feel more confident because the disappearing of symptoms is what made me get my early scan before 😣

congratulations to everyone 💕

DearTheodosiaa · 01/09/2023 18:57

@neverenoughwine ah yes, of course! Wow, that's exciting! I hope everything goes well for you, I think it will feel more real after the booking appointment xx

Hi Frankie!!
Sorry to hear about your MMC! Sending lots of positive vibes!!
It's so tough isn't it? Being positive, wanting more symptoms etc etc!
Everything crossed for you 💖

Thanks lovely. I'm really nervous, no idea why! Xx

DearTheodosiaa · 01/09/2023 20:24

@neverenoughwine aww I get it, I'm nervous to even do anything about it yet 😂 I just want to forget about it for a while 😂
Please let us know how it goes, sending love xx

Has anyone ever had brown discharge/bleeding in the very early stages of pregnancy?
On Wednesday night I started to get small amount of brown/light blood when I wiped which I put down to my period starting. It hadn't got any heavier in flow by Friday morning and I did 2 pregnancy tests which are positive. The discharge/bleeding is unchanged since then and I'm not sure if this is a bad sign or not?
I'm due my period tomorrow/Monday if I wasn't pregnant.
I suppose I will just have to wait it out to see if it stops and the tests continue to be positive?

Knewlife · 02/09/2023 14:11

Hello everyone - hope it's okay for me to join too, congratulations on all your BFPs!!!

I got my first faint positive on Tues at 8dpo and increasingly dark each day on cheapies and a strong line on Clearblue today. Think my due date would be May 15th.

I'm trying to be hopeful as this is my first cycle TTC after a molar pregnancy in 2021 which became cancerous and needed months of chemo. I do have an absolute energy ball 3.5 year old already though so I know my body can do it. 3 previous losses before that.

I've had a lot of strong symptoms which is making me slightly nervous as my molar was the same - awful headaches, hunger, boobs that feel like they're about to leak milk and the worst mood swings 😬 Feel better today though!

ErrolFinn · 02/09/2023 14:49

Unfortunately it looks likely that it is a chemical pregnancy. The bleeding has gotten heavier over the day and is now pink and I'm getting mild cramping. I'll test again in a few days.

Congratulations and good luck everyone x

Kerry93 · 02/09/2023 15:57

Hello everyone, hope your all well. Thinking of those with previous mc's and ErrolFinn, I'm sorry you think your having a chemical, fingers crossed that's not the case. I felt very fatigued yesterday, had an early night and feeling better today, just sore boobs and bloating. Had a couple of faint cheapies and a positive clear blue yesterday. Going to do a digital in a couple of days.

clasmummy20 · 02/09/2023 21:22

This is my second pregnancy.. I have a 2 year old, 3 in December 

Just very sensitive nipples haha and some twingy cramps on and off. Very similar to last time!

Tests getting darker as the days go on.

How are you @Kerry93 ? xx

Danielle9891 · 02/09/2023 21:32

Hi everyone can I join? Going by my last period I'm due on the 6th May 2024. I'm so excited.

I've already got a 2 year old so I'm going to be busy. We've not told anyone yet as we're waiting for my 12 week scan.

Got to say today my boobs have been so sore and I'm exhausted. I'm a waitress and I've only worked 6 hours today but I never stopped.

wishuponastar2018 · 02/09/2023 21:43

Congratulations all!!

Hey can i join?

I am not 100% sure if due date and cant even think about it.

This is my 11th pregnancy 🙈.. my first baby was stillborn in 2018, then a late miscarriage in 2019, I went on to have two chemicals before my rainbow 🌈 arrived safely in 2020.

After my DS I had a ruptured ectopic in 2021, 2 miscarriages at 6 weeks , and a MMC at 9 weeks in 2022. Then in Feb this year i had a other late miscarriage .. breath... don't ask me why i keep trying but i do.

I am under Tommys and consultant care lots of medication and prayers, but I WILL TAKE THIS BABY HOME.

I got a positive just over two weeks ago ... symptom keep coming and going and i know this means nothing at all but man its anxiety provoking .. really looking to form a support network
