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 🥰

Is anyone else finding this heat hard to deal with?
I usually love summer days but I am feeling SO hot and clammy and irritated! I can’t wait for it to be over I feel like I’m burning up.

Twdfn123 · 10/09/2023 16:03

@HashB im hating it too. I keep getting hot flushes through the day and feel all bloated and yucky. Can't wait for winter now lol. Giving birth in May when it's been really hot is not the most appealing thing 😅 !!! Xx

Yes I've already lost my rag at my toddler for being the naughtiest of naughty children 🙄

Yes! I'm glad it's not just me, I'm constantly melting. I felt quite sick with it earlier. Finally taking a cool soak in the bath with a face mask 🥰

HashB · 10/09/2023 19:55

I’m also sat in the bath trying to cool
down and feel clean and non sticky! Got Selling The Oc on Netflix, I might still be here at midnight.

Last time I’m sure by now I had more cramps and big swollen boobs and I don’t seem to have that this time yet. This is the kind of thing I overthink.

Obione1 · 10/09/2023 21:39

Hey everyone! I'm 5.5 weeks with my first, not many symptoms except the sore nipples and the odd cramping.
Anyway, today I've felt really rough and my lower stomach hurts when I wee, when I push out or when I touch it... is this part of the movements of the uterus or should I call the Dr tomorrow? Feel like it might be a bladder infection?

TheBirdintheCave · 10/09/2023 23:12

@HashB I compare every day to my diary from my first pregnancy as it was the only one that produced a living child. I overthink everything as well 😅

TTCbaby2x · 11/09/2023 07:21

Is anyone else suffering terrible from insomnia 😩 as soon as I get up for a wee of a morning even if it's 6am I am awake then, I cannot for the life of me get back to sleep!! It's becoming really frustrating😅

Me 😭 I went to sleep at 2.30 last night and was up at 6 for work. I don't know how I'm going to get through today 🫣

Twdfn123 · 11/09/2023 08:17

Does everyone think think this line progression looks okay? Sorry I'm so paranoid aftermy previous miscarriage and chemical. I'm due my period in 2 days. Thanks all 🥲

(-4 is 4 days until period, and so on...)

Due May 2024?
TheBirdintheCave · 11/09/2023 08:28

Comparing -3 to -2 it looks good yes :) I've ignored the FRER are you can't cross compare brands.

HavinKittens · 11/09/2023 10:09

Yes @TTCbaby2x it took me much longer to get to sleep last night even tho I was soo tired. I think I read it’s the high progestrogen.

@Twdfn123 those lines look good to me, it’s nerve wrecking when you’ve had a loss before isn’t it

TTCbaby2x · 11/09/2023 10:14

Does anyone else have a scan this week? Mine is Friday and I'm so excited but anxious!! Hope we can see something, according to my app I'll be 7 weeks but have it in the back of my mind I may be earlier so fingers crossed it's not too early!😭

I have a scan on Wednesday morning at EPU due to previous losses and they will also start me on progesterone. I'm nervous about that as I've heard it makes pregnancy symptoms worse 😱

ttcthoughts · 11/09/2023 10:26

@TTCbaby2x I have a scan tomorrow, and im soo nervous, I will only be 6 weeks I would of preferred my EPAU app to be in a week I think,

This is my first time at EPAU, what do I expect? @theodora2146

theodora2146 · 11/09/2023 10:30

@ttcthoughts nothing to worry about! It will always be transvaginal they will usually ask you to empty your bladder before.

They will take measurements and make sure baby is in the right place. Sometimes at 6 weeks you can see the heart beat aswell 🥰

HavinKittens · 11/09/2023 10:42

I rang our local early assessment unit and they said I wouldn’t be entitled to a scan even tho that’s what the midwife who scanned me back in January said. Sigh! Will just have to wait until my booking appointment and 12w scan.

on a plus note I did another digital and it says 2-3 weeks, not even first morning wee so hopefully that’s a good sign

Due May 2024?
TTCbaby2x · 11/09/2023 10:46

@ttcthoughts I had a 6 week scan at the EPU with my son, you will have a internal scan so you need an empty bladder for that, if you are too early they usually ask you to come back in 1/2 weeks for a rescan, there is not much else to it (as far as I can remember as this was nearly 6 years ago!) good luck and keep us updated on your scans!!

ttcthoughts · 11/09/2023 11:09

@theodora2146 Thank you. Im pretty nervous actually now, I cant believe I asked for it to be in the afternoon and not morning what was i thinking, I think I will be 6 weeks but 7 weeks from LMP

@TTCbaby2x I will keep everyone posted

@HavinKittens This is amazing news

brickbybrickbybrick · 11/09/2023 11:18

Yes! Been up between 4-6 willing myself back to sleep for a week or so now ..like clockwork ..very frustrating!

HashB · 11/09/2023 11:57

I can fall asleep but for the last 5 days or so I’ve woken up at 1.30 and that’s it. No more sleep for me.

your lines look darker than mine @Twdfn123 and I’m 4 days after my period is due 🫤

HashB · 11/09/2023 12:04

@theodora2146 good look! My EPU wanted to start with a blood test first but said I had to wait til 6 weeks and the wait is killing me. Especially because I don’t feel like I have many symptoms, although I do have the insomnia which of course makes everything already worrisome feel worse.

TheBirdintheCave · 11/09/2023 12:08

This morning I booked my EPU scan for exactly seven weeks which will be on the 28th (two days after my birthday).
