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 ok thanks for that.
Yeah it's the first pregnancy so I just worry about every little thing.
They have subsided a bit now, so it's more on and off. I can feel my boobs giving little twinges every now and then.

I'm sure it's fine, I need to stop googling!

Thanks everyone RE gp/midwife!

Found an online referral form so going to leave it a couple days, do another test, and fill it out!

🤍🤍🤍

First pregnancy here but I've been having the same, plenty of it. I'm assuming it's just the hormones and beginning of changes inside, I've seen lots of others saying period like cramps is a normal experience so I'm trying not to worry. Just waiting for my first appointment to find out more now

Anyone being feeling a bit dizzy? Apparently thats also normal lol x

Yeah I said that to my partner yday at the supermarket x

Yes, like vertigo. I remember getting this later in pregnancy last time. But I'm not sure it isn't a side effect of the anti sickness

6 weeks today!!! I'm getting more sick waves which isn't lovely.... I slept 10-11 hours last night. Is anyone else still getting on and off sore boobs? When does that subside?

Hey I’m pregnant with my third child wasnt trying so huge shock but I’m also getting cramps exactly the same

I had very heavy bleeding with my son for a week non stop and my son is now 4 xxx

Anyone else feeling so hormonal? I feel like I'm annoyed by everything and DH is being amazing and yet I still feel annoyed. Also my sense of smell intensity is making being around people with perfume or aftershave or strong body odour or breath is making me ill. Also when DS breathes out (not the smell just the air) makes me feel like I can't breathe. I've had issues breathing the last 2 weeks but been tested for all sorts and all tests are clear. At 7+3 can it be because of stuff moving about in my body?

How is everyone?

Definitely feeling very hormonal and emotional!

This because the other day one of my stepchildren came from their grandparents and I could instantly smell chips on him and my partner gave me a funny look. But it was true he had been round chips. I'm smelling everything now.

Scan booked for Sunday 28th 🫣 I caved and couldn’t wait till 12 with the miscarriage worry iv got! I should be 7.3/7.4 going off the app so fingers tightly crossed! 🖤

when’s everyone’s scan ? Would love to see updates as we go along xxx

Is there any point going for an early pregnancy scan at 6w+2 or am I best off waiting til 7w? I’m driving myself mad worrying my hcg is too high and there’s something wrong as my pregnancy tests were all very dark and I got a 3+ week on a digital yesterday when I think I should be showing 2-3 weeks.

I can totally relate to this, I can smell my OH really strongly and he doesn't smell bad at all bad, I'm just so sensitive.
My symptoms are worse at night, my nausea, sickness, smell and aversions really start. I think it's probably as I get tired. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow.

I'm the same my sickness is 12am until about 6am every night, most food smells too over powering for me to be around when cooking the kitchen knocks me sick at dinner time. Apart from smell and sickness how are you?

@pinkpetunias at 6 + 2 you should be showing 3 +, anytime from 5 weeks :)

I had a scan at 6 +1 and saw a heartbeat but I'm still worried and considering another scan at about 8/9 weeks, so unless you have concerns maybe hold off until 7 weeks if you can! I find it only reduces the worry for a few days!

Ooh can I join? I'm currently 4 odd weeks, so due end of December, pretty much when my son turns 3!
I'm a bit nervous as I had gestational diabetes last time and severely low iron. Labour wasn't great either 😅.
Still doesn't feel real, no symptoms but the tests are currently strong.

@Ohhdeerohderr I'm also pregnant with an unplanned third 🙈 how is your mental state? Mine is non existent right now 😂

Hi, I'm 5 weeks pregnant tomorrow with baby number 2. I had a miscarriage nearly 3 months ago so I'm very nervous this time around. I had a lot of symptoms in first few weeks but seem to have more energy now and not as fatigued... which is making me overthink! I think my nausea didn't kick in until week 6 with my first little girl but I can't remember exactly

My doctor told me not to take any supplements apart from high strength folic acid...did anyone else get that advice... feels weird to be taking just one supplement!!

Can I ask how you got a scan at 6 weeks? This is my first pregnancy and super worried about everything 😰

I self-referred yesterday but waiting to hear back, all a bit overwhelming (but at least I only cried 3 times before lunch yesterday 😂)

I'm in the super worried boat with you too. I'm 5+5 and had HCG tested at 5+3 and doing the 48 hour later test today to check increase. Rather than reassuring me the first one made things 100 times worse as HCG levels came in at 814 which is on the very low side. Been awake all night worrying about what today's one's going to come in at as have a really bad feeling now. I miscarried in February (Valentine's Day!) at five weeks and the thought of it happening again is just unbearable. Sending love to all who need it.

Morning Ladies, I’m 6+3 today. Last week I felt nauseous most evenings, had constant sore boobs and mild cramping. For the last couple of days I’ve had no nausea and boobs are much less noticeable. I’ve got a private scan next week but can’t help but overthink everything! Felt very hot last night and seemed to wake every hour - today at work will be interesting!
