Anyone else?
I'm 8dpo

@BeLemonQuoter wow, that is fantastic! Twins! Bet you are thrilled to bits.

I feel like that, I just can’t imagine loving another baby as much as my son, but everyone has reassured me that your heart doubles.

Feeling a bit guilty about having to split my time but hoping he will understand.

While I was in the bathroom after wiping I noticed some brownish discharge. It has me a bit worried. I had a scan a few days ago and everything was fine. Not sure what to think now. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm 8 weeks today.

@Katie1989xx thanks so much for your reply, sending you lots of positive thoughts for next Monday, it really is a rollercoaster. I'm sorry to hear about your previous losses too, its so hard. I'll keep in touch xx

Hello everyone!

Delighted to be joining this thread. Got my surprise BFP on the 23rd, hubby and I hadn't planned to start trying until this month. First baby, 25 and currently 5 + 1. Due January 28th!

Have booked a private scan for the 17th which will be the start of my 8th week for reassurance… everything crossed that it’s a healthy pregnancy.

Symptoms so far have been 2-3 days of cramping, pressure and stretching. Now onto sore breasts and strange looking nipples!! Tightness still there, tiredness on/off and craving proper food (meat and veg especially!) I love to feel the symptoms as they are reassuring but they do seem to come and go.

Wishing you all happy and healthy pregnancies❤️✨

@Firsttimetrier and I know it makes so much sense like I love all my nieces and nephews equally but when I'm looking at my little one I'm like no I can't ever love someone more🙈🤣 there's definitely a lot of guilt and even her wanting to be lifted and I can't because I'm too nauseated etc. I'm like this is the start of it !

@MrsK23 congrats and welcome !!

@92Char I've definitely heard of a lot of people having similar, see how it is tomorrow , brown is usually like old blood I believe

I have a scan this morning to confirm a failed pregnancy. It’s been a long week waiting but will be glad to get a resolve today x

@McConkeysPlate Sorry to hear that. Hope you are doing ok. The waiting is the worst. Hope you can find some peace today. xx

Sorry for the delay everyone, it has been a really hard pregnancy so far. I’m sure many of you can relate.

I have now created a WhatsApp group chat and here is the link!!

Everyone is welcome to join, and congratulations to all the new mums joining!! It would be appreciated if you could have your first name visible, and potentially a profile picture (filters etc. don’t matter).

Im hoping it have 2-3 admins to help manage the group. Please let me
know if you’d like to be one!

@92Char I’m sorry to hear this, char. Do you plan to go the EPU and get this checked out? It can very well be nothing, but it’s best to know.

I agree with what @TerryRose has said.

@McConkeysPlate Fingers crossed for you that all will go well at the appointment today. I’m sorry that you’re experiencing this, I understand it can be very frightening. Hopefully you have someone on standby to support you, no matter the outcome. Best wishes to you x

I hope you’re doing ok @McConkeysPlate, be kind to yourself

@Mariigolds I have sent a request to join

I’ve just accepted all the requests so far.

Im not sure how to make it so everyone with the link can join, maybe it’s better this way?

@Mariigolds I have a GP appointment tomorrow so I'm going to mention it to her and see what advice she gives. I had some more brownish discharge this morning when I arrived to work. It is nervewrecking but hoping it's nothing too serious.

The amount I’m sleeping in unreal.

Currently on annual leave this week so DH and I can do some jobs around the house whilst DS is in nursery.

Both days I’ve ended up having a 3 hour nap. Last night I fell asleep at 8.30pm and slept through until DS woke at 5.45am.

How is it physically possible to sleep so much 😅

I have one tomorrow, it's been going on since last Monday. I am nearly positive it will be a miscarriage so I feel you. Sending you lots of love x

I feel you! I had a 3 hour nap yesterday and then still went to sleep at 11pm and got a full 8 hour sleep through the night (I haven't had any live babies yet to wake me up😂).

Been finding it so hard coming in to the office and making it through the day without a nap. I'm also super nauseous so all in all, not the best state to be in at work... trying to power through, I am 8+2 today so there might still be a while left of feeling like this!!

@SunflowerDream @Firsttimetrier
I have 0 energy i couldn't even finish my shower i came out in towel and just slumped on the sofa and stared at the ceiling for about 20 mins..

Is anyone else feeling really agitated and cranky?

@Mama2b99 I've felt super sensitive and emotional - which sometimes displays itself as agitation, or grumpiness lol! I had a meltdown the other day because I was craving an ice cream all day and then went to check the freezer and it had been eaten😂- I was not happy haha

@Mama2b99 Deffo feeling irritable today!! Not really sure why as I’m not usually like that but every little thing is p*ing me off. Thank goodness I’m off work

@Mariigolds yes I can definitely relate😫
move just requested to join the WhatsApp group :)

Thank you for all your messages. It’s been a tough month. 3 weeks of epu thinking it’s ectopic, multiple internal and external scans, 6 blood tests then news last week it’s a failing pregnancy. This was confirmed today. I will have another scan next week to 100% confirm this followed by an operation to remove the tissue.
i am sorry for anyone else that is going through similar x

Thank you - I've just requested to join!

Hello everyone - due 24 Jan 2025 💕

IVF pregnancy (after 5 cycles) so feeling somewhat anxious but so far, so good!

Yup can't stop napping. Not sure how I'll get through work tomorrow 🙈 for those of you who work full time I don't know how 💪🙌 and all I want to ear is fries and burgers soo bad 🙈🙈

@McConkeysPlate so sorry to hear that the worst was confirmed. I had a similar situation before we had our little girl last year and the wait was awful. I also opted for surgical management as it wasn’t happening by itself after a week of waiting. Wishing you all the best and hopefully your next cycle will be positive xx
