Dec-Christmas Babys 2024

[UnicornPrincessSarah]

Made this extra group for us ladies who are due in Dec

Little about me I'm 34 nearly 35 DH 39 nearly 4

TTC for 3 months, My rainbow baby after a loss at 18 at 6/7 weeks

I'm from a town called Dagenham in the UK

Can chat about anything you like or if you feel you need to vent lol

@RedRobyn2021 aww congrats to you too! That's so great, Yes there does seem to be a lot around this due date, doesn't there?! Yes I've had cramps on and off this past week too and extreme tiredness as well. Like I would just want to go for a nap in the middle of the day if I could, after work I am a lot more tired than usual! Anyone else feel like this?!

Congratulations to everyone due December babies 🫶🏼We’ve been TTC for a while and last month decided to have a break from trying as each month felt even more disheartening. Today I realised I was a few days late, never in a million years did I expect my first ever BFP 😭 This will be our first baby and estimated due date in Dec 19th/20th…still in shock tbh!

@littlepanda88 yes sometimes I've felt zapped, but I have a 3yo too who still wakes at night so I have been attributing it to this, but perhaps not now I think about it. Is this your first?

Congratulations 🥳

I have some cramps, nausea, sore breasts was my biggest 1st symptom. Plus food aversions now and defo stronger sense of smell. Fingers crossed for you!!

Aw congrats! That's great news. How are you feeling? It's such a rollercoaster isn't it!
So glad there's some others with the same or similar date, nice to be able to chat to people in the same boat.

All day today I’ve had a full ache down my arm, it isn’t shoulder tip pain I don’t think so not concerned about ectopic but this ache is becoming so annoying! I’ve read this can happen due to relaxin but anyone else had the same? I’m 4w+3

I’ve got really sore boobs, cramps, super exhausted/tired and heightened sense of smell. I’m only 3+5 so not as far along as most on here but my symptoms feel quite strong already, I’m almost dreading them getting worse!

Is anyone going for an early reassurance scan? I think I’d rather go for the scan around 6/7 weeks before telling anyone. I think I’m going to end up being a social recluse though as no one has ever known me turn down a glass of wine when out!

I had my first real nauseous day yesterday and it was vile. I’m off to court today (for work) and I’m hoping the drive & actually being there goes ok x

@RedRobyn2021 haha yes having another one running about also doesn't help with the tiredness! This will be my third actually, I've got two boys age 7 and 5, so it's been a while but very excited :) I can't believe I forget these early stages of pregnancy, I was very sick in both my previous pregnancies so I'm anticipating sickness again.

Hoping to get an early scan around 7 weeks I think :)

This my toddler has HFM and I’m shattered. I feel like a walking somebody. I’m nauseous all the time these days and my friend the ever present indigestion is back. At least it’s no where near as bad as the first time.

Hope everybody is good :-)? Scan day today so the nerves are kicking in 😊, between 6-7 weeks so hoping for a more accurate dating today. Xx

Good luck, that sounds hard

Good luck 🤞 update us after - your first look at your little bean ♥️

4w6d - feeling crampy. Anyone else experiencing cramps? Not serious but also very aware, is this normal or something to be worried about? Legs (thighs) have a dull ache also

Hello! Currently 5w4d pregnant, we only tested yesterday!
Our little boy who's 1 was born through IVF as we were told I couldn't get pregnant naturally so you can imagine how shocked we are to be here!
I have a 6 week scan on Monday to check everything is as it should be as I'm at a higher risk of ectopic pregnancy due to scarred tubes. I'm absolutely terrified! Will be due slap bang in the middle of Dec all being well 😍

My 6 week scan is on Monday, feeling the nerves too! I hope you get on okay! X

Right from the beginning i have had issues with my thighs feeling heavy especially when walking but if I try to rub them they feel bruised now 7 weeks and still tender

Welcome and congrats, fingers crossed for you all goes well Monday at your scan

@pollypocke Hey aww good luck! Just had mine all is good and see a lovely little heartbeat :-) xx

@Nbaby hey I'm also 4w6d and also feeling the cramps! They are on and off and have been like that for around a week, I'm guessing it's normal? Have you had any other symptoms? I haven't felt sick yet but there's plenty of time for that of course!

@UnicornPrincessSarah my thighs feel exactly the same bruised!
@littlepanda88 aw I hope they are normal. Congratulations. I had sore boobs around 4w but has completely disappeared trying not to read too much into it. No sickness yet, my last pregnancy I had HG I was sick so many times a day it was awful nothing helped this started around 6/7 weeks and lasted right to the very end. Only these cramps that started today I would say they’re both sided. Legs very achy and tired . Don’t feel pregnant tbh
Im a ball of nerves trying to relax

God I don't know about you lot but the breast soreness sucks!!!! Anyway to try to relieve this?

@starryx it does! Didn't get it in my last pregnancy but am for sure now - I'm still breastfeeding my toddler and it is PAINFUL.

I've had cramps for the whole time, they're toning down a bit now at 5+5. Also starting to get food aversions and some nausea which I am not excited about as I was lucky last time and got nothing apart from tiredness 😅

Ouch i cant even imagine breastfeeding with how sore!! And yeah I've had cramps too and aversion and nausea too. This is my 1st. Woke up with backache must of slept funny or its the hormones 🤣
