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 🥰

@DearTheodosiaa Yes I get them through the EPU. I'll be asking for 7 and 9 this time as 9 is the week I can't get past.

ttcthoughts · 04/09/2023 11:33

@clasmummy20 I am also soo hungry :( I get nauseous if i don't eat as soon as I'm hungry too

@DearTheodosiaa I have been booked in for a scan next week in the EPAU.

Do you know when we get our booking appointment I went online and self referred but haven't heard anything back

wishuponastar2018 · 04/09/2023 11:37

Am not sure about an early scan, I am entitle to it due to my history but am terrified

TTCbaby2x · 04/09/2023 12:02

Hi!! I'd love to join please 😊 tested positive Tuesday 29th August with a clear blue digital 1-2 weeks.... lines have been getting stronger every day (serial tester due to past losses and anxieties! Will stop testing my eBay cheapies run out this week)

I have booked a private early scan for Friday 15th, according to my dates I will be around 7 weeks but that will differ I expect as I don't know when I exactly ovulated. Having a early scan for peace of mind...

Due date (I think) is around 8th May...

This will be my 2nd baby, I have had 2 miscarriages and then a successful pregnancy back in 2018, he is now 5.

I haven't had many symptoms only up until the last 2 days, today I woke up with really heavy sore boobs and the last day or 2 I've been experiencing a heavy/full pressured feeling in my lower abdomen (were you would usually start seeing a bump form), anyone else had this?

Suffered terrible from morning sickness with my first but that didn't start till week 6 so we will soon see if I have that again👀

Xx

Gentle congratulations to you ❤️.

My symptoms seem less than with my previous pregnancy but it ended in a miscarriage at 14 weeks so i think symptoms mean nothing ..

My boobs have been my main symptom too.. some nausea but very very mild

slowsundays · 04/09/2023 12:38

I'm nauseous as all hell today and I'm only 3+3. Nipples are sensitive but not crazily so. I'm going to book in for an early scan at 7 weeks to put my mind at ease.

JL1989 · 04/09/2023 21:04

I’d love to join! Also hoping this will be our rainbow 🌈 - first pregnancy ended in TFMR in May this year, so I’m remaining cautiously optimistic. Due date is May 15th 💜

wishuponastar2018 · 04/09/2023 21:09

@JL1989 gentle congratulations to you.

I have been out all day with DH and DS and have felt so normal, i keep thinking its a bad sign and am going to miscarry.. then am trying to ignore my stupid brian.. so hard

neverenoughwine · 05/09/2023 08:03

Congratulations to you all.

Wishuponastar ❤️ keep positive. I know it's super hard! I'm feeling the same my symptoms seem to have disappeared too.

Xx

ttcthoughts · 05/09/2023 08:45

@wishuponastar2018 Its soo hard isnt it, I feel the same when i have no symptoms then i feel like everything is going to go wrong!

TTCbaby2x · 05/09/2023 09:12

Oh no I think the dreaded nausea is starting for me, I've woke up feeling really nauseous. Not to the point I need to be sick but just them constant waves of nausea and a weird taste in my mouth....
I am also waking daily with headaches, anyone had this?

wishuponastar2018 · 05/09/2023 09:22

@TTCbaby2x i do get head aches some times in early pregnancy.

I fell a but rough today .. my bobs are soo sore 🙈😂.

I went for a run this morning but i use the word run very lightly, it was more walking and moving my feet faster .

I woke up with indigestion at 2am my drugs tend to cause this.

I bit the bullet and did my referral to my
Midwife 🙈...

I am taking this baby home!!

lilpopcorn · 05/09/2023 09:29

Hi everyone! I'm 5+6 and I'm a FTM. So insanely aware of every sensation in my body since I got my positive on the 27th.

Started off queasy and had gone off a lot of sweet stuff (very unlike me!) but now feeling OK. Just having very mild cramping occasionally, bit of constipation, peeing more often and waking up more in the night.

I haven't told anyone yet apart from my partner, it feels like the biggest secret I've ever kept! Booking appointment is in for 26th Sept with my very lovely community midwife team and also hoping to get a private early scan around 8 weeks. Although I'm scared even to do that!! But will be nice if all is well and we can share the news with our parents then.

Belle199 · 05/09/2023 09:45

Tentatively joining you all.

I am only 11dpo but been having faint positive tests since 9dpo. AF isn't due until Friday so I keep trying to wait to test again but I am too keen. I have used both a easy @ home test and a boots 5 day early one.

I have been feeling on / off nauseous, extra tired, I have bad acne & my hair is greasier but none of that is completely unusual though before AF - except maybe the hair thing. I only tested at 9dpo as my dog was acting a little bit strange around me at the weekend - more clingy , extra affectionate. I am aware that it is still super early!

theodora2146 · 05/09/2023 09:58

Hi all!

I'm jumping on this board as well at the April one.

My periods messed up from the pill so I could be due in April or early May!

I have an early scan at EPU next week which will make me around 6 weeks from the last bleed but I could be further along.

Hopefully find out rough dates next week when they measure.

muffin1996 · 05/09/2023 11:13

Hi everyone
hope it’s okay the jump on this thread.

got a faint positive yesterday and much darker today. Waiting until Friday till I do clear blue digital because DH wants to be present haha.

It’s our first time so we’re both feeling really anxious. Anyone else feeling really bloated?

wishuponastar2018 · 05/09/2023 11:16

Welcome and gentle care congratulations to all those who have gotten their positives this week
❤️.

slowsundays · 05/09/2023 13:43

Nausea has hit early this pregnancy. I took another digital to see if it was showing any possibility of 2 Blush Still 1-2 (bang on, period isn't due until Friday) but it feels like I'm constantly on a boat and I've never had this before. Nausea was minimal starting week six or seven in my others.

neverenoughwine · 05/09/2023 14:04

Hey all 👋

Nice to hear from you all!

Yes I'm waking up with headaches every day!! And I feel a little nauseous when I first wake up, like I've had a drink the night before but it soon goes. I'm a little bloated too!

The midwife called me in Saturday for an early booking in appointment.

She's called today and my scan is booked in for the 27th. I think I'll be just over 8 weeks by then. I'm so anxious!!

I really will bring this baby home!!

Just been for a walk on my lunch break and bought food!! 🤣🤣
It's soooooooo warm 🥵

wishuponastar2018 · 05/09/2023 14:21

I totally get that hungover feeling too, i remember it being one of the first signs with my first DS.

I am dreading speaking to my midwife, and am still so unsure about an early scan, once we start scanning thats it, i ened up 2x weekly then daily nearer the end with my 🌈 just due to all my losses

mrktmummy · 05/09/2023 15:31

@slowsundays I'm the same last pregnancy just the smallest bit of nausea in the car this one I am so nauseous already and I'm only 4 weeks!

Got an early scan booked at EPU on 19th September because of my previous losses I will only be 5+6 so not accepting to see much probably just a sac and my midwife appointment is booked for 29th September.

TheBirdintheCave · 05/09/2023 15:46

@muffin1996 Yes every time I eat 🤦🏻‍♀️

vampire13 · 05/09/2023 15:58

Can I join? I found out I was pregnant last week, according to NHS calculator I'm due may 13th! (13 is my lucky number!!!) I've had a chemical and a missed miscarriage found at 12 weeks in the last 8 months, so praying this one is a sticky baby. The midwife rang me today and I have my booking In appointment in 2 weeks!

vampire13 · 05/09/2023 16:00

clasmummy20 · 02/09/2023 19:41

Can I join in? Going by my dates I should be due 13th May 2024 x

That's my due date too!! 🌈

muffin1996 · 05/09/2023 16:02

@TheBirdintheCave yess and even when I don’t eat lol. I also wake up with such a dry mouth
