I've joined the Facebook group. I found my last one for my 2.5ish DD invaluable.

PineappleBella · 17/02/2024 12:18

I’ve moved my scan to tomorrow when I’ll be 6 + 4! What am I likely to see? ❤️

Actually I will wait as I don't want anyone to know just yet and I can't remember what my privacy settings are

@Sunandsea13 I know it's easier said than done but pls try not to worry. Ultimately your hCG is doubling under 48hrs and that's all that matters. Until you have a scan, there really no way of saying for sure.

But if I were to have a punt at how far along you are...
I think you mentioned you'd had a scan and know you ovulated after the 29th? The pre-mom tests pick up hCG levels as low as 25, probably a bit lower for real squinters. Soooo... I reckon (and I'm not a dr so please keep this mind. I'm guessing!) Feb 6th was around 8dpo. Like others have said, ignore your digital test. They're pants and not very sensitive. This would line up with a hCG of around 50 or a bit lower on the 8th. So I reckon you're probably a little earlier than your current guess. But again - I'm no dr and have zero idea and this just my rough theory.

Side note - my brain now hurts from all that math but it was fun going down a rabbit hole.

Sending you a big hug! Xx

Has anyone experienced symptoms disappearing? I'm 5weeks + 4days and initially had all the symptoms, sore breasts, nausea, food Aversion, fatigue etc. The nausea seems to have completely subsided though I still have sore breasts, fatigue and I've gone off sweet food which is not like me. With my past previous pregnancies I was so sick and I'm surprised I haven't been yet. The nausea disappearing is not what I expected.
Anyone else? Should I be worried?

Thank you! Of course! But it’s a private group so only people inside can see :) xxx

Bee49 · 17/02/2024 15:17

@MamaBee23 its really normal for symptoms to come and go. Going of sweet things is really common (at least I’ve had that every time!) so that’s a new symptom even thought he nausea has disappeared. I’m sure it’ll be back!

Hello everyone, tentatively joining as I’ve had three positive tests despite not being due on until Tuesday.
This is number two for us, due 29th October.
I didn’t realise I was pregnant with DD until I realised my period was a week late and didn’t have any symptoms until about 8 weeks, but tested early this time as have been feeling increasingly sicky in the mornings. DH keeps making jokes about twins 🤦‍♀️

spudnik1 · 17/02/2024 15:53

@PineappleBella I went for my scan yesterday I thought I was 7+3 but I measured 6+5.
I saw a blob 😁 but also a tiny flickering heartbeat.

Sunandsea13 · 17/02/2024 19:20

@Oct24 thank you so much!! Really appreciate it ❤️ Just going to relax now xxx

Hopefully it'll work 🤞🏻🤞🏻

AnxiousD · 18/02/2024 09:34

I'm 99% sure I have covid and 5wks pregnant. Absolutely washed out. Trying to keep going to entertain my DS which may mean it takes longer to get over 😫

Itsasomething · 18/02/2024 09:35

Eek!
I think I should be Oct 26th!

Got a scan at EPU in two weeks to confirm everything is where it should be, but I feel good about this one! (Morning sickness aside 🤣)

OCTOBER 2024 BABIES!

Can anyone help me figure out how many weeks I am? I have PCOS and irregular cycles but was doing pregnancy tests every 2 days so I know I’m not weeks out. From my results I think I am 5 weeks yesterday so 5w+1 day today? What is confusing me is that on that basis should the CB digital not have been positive on 6 Feb? Should I be worried I am more than doubling every 48 hours?

faint positive on pre-mom 6 Feb
negative CB digital

positive on CB digital 7 Feb

HCG Thur 8 Feb 46.8

HCG Mon 12 Feb 271

HCG Fri 16 Feb 1431

Weeks post LMP U/L
3 : 5.8 - 71.2
4 : 9.5 - 750
5 : 217 - 7138
6 : 158 - 31795

8 : 32065 - 149571

@Sunandsea13 I'm in the exact same position as you and probably around the same timings. My LMP was 04/01 and I also have PCOS with completely irregular cycles.

I had my first positive test on 08/02 and then I had my first blood draw 14/02 which was 273 (got it wrong on my last post) .. I've got another one on Monday. My GP has said to me based on the results etc I might be around 5 weeks now.

It's really hard to know isn't it. Are you going to have an early scan?

cm3212 · 18/02/2024 09:47

@Sunandsea13 I definitely wouldn't worry if I was you, your blood draw results look great Smile congrats to you xx
