Hello everyone just found out today I’m pregnant after 17 long cycles of trying. I’m 4 weeks and already so nauseous.

Don’t know if anyone seen my previous post mentioning this but my MIL walked passed a psychic in a shopping centre a couple of weeks ago, this woman shouted her over and told her my son was going to love his sister. I had only just ovulated then so had no idea I was pregnant. My MIL has now just text me with a message from some other psychic she knows asking if she’s going to be a gran again because she seen my picture today and got a strong feeling I’m pregnant! I’m a bit spooked out but also quite annoying if that ruins the element of surprise and us announcing the news!

MudandMoet · 30/12/2023 21:55

@Bearcub01 how many people know you're pregnant? If not many don't worry the surprise element will still be there just not for your MIL. I'm so invested to know if you are having a girl already 😂!

I know the late princess Diana's psychic (through my old job) and a few years ago now she told me she knew I'd just miscarried a girl, it was all very odd because we have never ever told anyone ever about my pregnancies and miscarriages, other than on here I'm a very private person and a closed book really (which is odd as my friends would say I am very outgoing and confident) I'm just not good at talking. I'm never sure if there's anything in all that stuff or not but she certainly made me think that day!

Bearcub01 · 30/12/2023 21:59

@MudandMoet only my husband and I know so it’s so weird one was said before we even found out then another one today! I don’t know how much I believe in that stuff but it’s freaky! And gives me a little bit of hope at least that all is going well!
I don’t even know if I want to find out the sex this time round but not sure I can wait!!

Wanderlust86 · 30/12/2023 22:04

@Bearcub01 that is so strange. I'm very intrigued to know if it's a girl now 😄

WolfMother326 · 30/12/2023 22:07

@Bearcub01 haha your MIL sounds like my mother, she's kooky and always has said that her psychics have told her that I'll have two boys! I don't mind at all if we have another boy or have a girl. I don't believe in that stuff either but find it quite funny that sometimes it turns out right.

@MudandMoet Thank goodness for the ribena, first morning wee is much more reliable! I will be curious to see what it says for me as I didn't really track at all this cycle. We just did it every three days but the last time was 2 weeks ago. So I guess it could be 1-2 weeks if I ovulated after that last time, or 2 weeks+. But maybe they aren't accurate enough to give me that answer.

Bearcub01 · 30/12/2023 22:08

I don’t know what to do with a girl haha! I’m scared!!

MudandMoet · 30/12/2023 22:17

Oh crikey @Bearcub01 I assumed your MIL must already know! That is freaky!

There's not a chance I couldn't find out. I will pay for an early gender reveal scan if I get that far. Patience is not a strong point of mine.

I can't wait to see now in the morning @WolfMother326 hopefully both a bit further than we think 🤞🏼. The days go soooo slow.

jules5232 · 30/12/2023 22:22

I forgot about the tests that give predicted weeks, I might get one of those!

Fawklight · 30/12/2023 22:39

@Bearcub01 same 🤣 my first is a boy, and I'm bewildered by little girls I'm so used to boy things now.
Thankfully my sister had one last year so at least I can call her for advice but I think she'd give me a good teasing for it.

3ornotto3 · 31/12/2023 00:07

Hi friends!!! Can I join pls?? I got a positive Christmas morning 🥹 (vvvv faint and took another a few days ago which has gotten darker so that’s always a good sign). Due first week of September.

I have two boys, 2 & 3, so, 2024 about to get hectic 🤪 hope everyone’s feeling ok?! ❤️❤️

3ornotto3 · 31/12/2023 00:08

Also @RoSco197 are you able to resend a fb link? It doesn’t work for me, it says it’s expired 😔

aliceinwonderland93 · 31/12/2023 07:09

Hi everyone! I got my BFP 2 days ago, feeling very anxious as I had a chemical in September. This will be baby no 2 as I already have a little girl who’ll be 2 in a couple of months. Joining as the previous thread/Fb page was so lovely during my first pregnancy!

TallulahTaboo · 31/12/2023 07:26

Congratulations to all the newbies... and apologies I've not been on the last few days.

So funny with all the clairvoyant chat as I had the exact thing too. I miscarried in October and she said my Gran was holding my baby girl, she couldn't have known that. And told me I'd have another baby! Potentially quite triggering to say during a session or in general I think so there must be some truth to it?

Nausea is coming and going for me which I'm enjoying.. had it so bad for 20 weeks solid last time. Boobs are agony, I was running in the gym and my God, they were hurting! I worked out until 42 weeks with my last pregnancy so hoping to continue to doing that if I can!!

Has anyone managed to book their booking in appointment yet? I called yesterday but they were shut until the 3rd (in Scotland so we get an extra bank holiday on the 2nd) xx

MrsB2019x · 31/12/2023 07:41

@Bearcub01 That’s so spooky! You need to have an early gender scan as we’re all invested now 😂

MudandMoet · 31/12/2023 08:04

Morning everyone,

Got my 3+ 🥳
The other said 1-2 on Christmas Eve so it's nice to see it's progressing but I shan't test any more now.

Have you done yours yet @WolfMother326 ?

I've woken up with two spots on my face today...Lovely!! I'm guessing it's hormone related.

Morning all, congratulations to all the BFP over the last few days, September will be a busy month.

That is so funny about the psychic, need to know if you're having a girl now!

My symptoms are minimal, some heartburn and constant peeing. I'm determined not to keep POAS but I'm a firm tissue checker 😂

At a wedding today and I've no idea how I'm going to cover up the fact I'm not drinking.

Lemonyfire · 31/12/2023 08:13

I’m becoming a bit of a POAS addict and getting anxious as lines don’t seem to be getting darker even though using fmu, even though deep down I know it’s not accurate to base off that. I had a positive digital a few days ago but would be expecting really dark lines by now 😬

3ornotto3 · 31/12/2023 09:10

Is anyone else experiencing trapped wind?! My stomach was absolutely killing me all day just felt like air constantly trapped in my stomach. I read online this is common early pregnancy but I don’t remember it happening to me in my last pregnancies 🤨

WolfMother326 · 31/12/2023 09:14

@MudandMoet that's great news!

I'm surprised, I was expecting 1-2 weeks but I also have been ovulating early since my miscarriage in September. Happy to see it, going to try not to focus on it too much! Feeling a little bit of anxiety creeping in...

WolfMother326 · 31/12/2023 09:14

Oops, meant to post this!

WolfMother326 · 31/12/2023 09:15

Oh dear, it says 2-3!

You lot have made me want to get another digital 😂 I haven’t tested for the last 2 days but I’m getting the itch

WolfMother326 · 31/12/2023 09:37

Not sure the digital can be trusted, I've just started spotting ☹️

MudandMoet · 31/12/2023 10:00

@WolfMother326 have you any pains too? I think it's fairly common to see spotting this early in pregnancy. It definitely doesn't always mean a MC. Is it brown ish or bright red ? Hope you're okay x

MrsB2019x · 31/12/2023 10:06

@WolfMother326 I spotted a bit with my daughter around this stage, I understand now worrying it is though. Hope you are okay xx
