Due February 2025

[PuddleJump]

I have just tested positive today with a due date of 2 February. Have had a look and I can't see that anyone else has started a group for Feb yet. Is there anyone else out there who would like to join?

@elb1504 mints and gum are a good idea I might try that! I've been drinking a lot of ice water and then eating the ice cubes which seems to provide a little relief. Otherwise it's going to be a rough few weeks 😅. I've been wfh this week but need to go in a few days next week. Don't really want to tell my work this early but might need to if it means I can wfh more!

I had a scan on Monday which put me at 7 weeks exactly, I thought I was 6+3. Was so strange seeing a little blob baby with a heartbeat!

Oh congrats @scrumdiddly123 - what splendid news. You must have been absolutely thrilled! 🤗

I've had HG through all my pregnancies and it's just starting to set in now. I travel a lot through the city with my job on public transport so anticipate this will not be great this time round so far I've managed to be sick in a bush and in a bin next to a Tesco express. Love it. Not found anything helpful yet!

Oh god @gothbaddie that sounds awful 😫 did it get better in the second trimester?

Baby no 3 here too! Due 20th Feb. I have a 4 year old (almost 5) and a 10 month old 🫣 also think I may be mad!

I’ve been lurking, I’ve had faint pos tests all week but period was due today and I got my clear blue “pregnant” so it feels official now.

I have had some light brown/pink discharge today though when wiping occasionally - hopefully implantation!

I feel exactly the same, I had this in my last pregnancy but I do think I feel worse this time! Fizzy drinks provide momentary relief.

Hi everyone. Just joining this thread today, it's nice to have people to talk to who are at the same stage. I'm 4w+6 today due the 21st Feb with my first baby. Had an early miscarriage at 7w+5 in January so this is my second pregnancy. Trying my best to be optimistic about this one and not let the doubt demons creep in. Am I mad to be delighted any time I feel a little nauseous?😂

@Redapple21 I was thinking some ginger ale might be good so will give that a go this weekend!

Same here... awake at 5am every morning since the day before I tested positive. Pretty annoying, as I'm exhausted by the evening!

And now after days of nausea it seems to have gone away in the last hour (after eating). Instead of enjoying the relief, I'm now worrying and probably willing it to return! 🙈🙈

Ah I also have a nearly 2 year old and due date 14th Feb!

Hi everyone, joining in as I tested positive today. Didn't need the test though, could tell from the way my boobs feel 😂 I remember this with my first!

I feel much more crampy this time though which I don't remember from last time

I had my HCG tested when I was 5 weeks a couple of days ago and it was 21,000 which is clearly why I'm feeling so rubbish 🤢

@CxCxTtc2024 & @lizziecat1 same here. I’m awake at 4am every morning for at least an hour. Then tossing and turning for a while. I think it’s been since I took the test as well. Im wondering if I’ve got first trimester tiredness or waking up at 4am tiredness x

@dreaminofholidays @lizziecat1 it's so strange!! I just open my eyes wide awake!!! I'm
Not thinking specifically about anything to do with it, or had a bad dream or anything. And it can't be to do with hormones or anything because I was sleeping fine before I knew about the pregnancy, as soon as I had a pos test, no sleeping.

Hi, this is my first pregnancy and I'm about 6 weeks. Symptoms so far are very sensitive boobs/nipples and tiredness xx

Kept waking up in the night worrying that my nausea had gone away. Up early with DS and it's back. I'm actually relieved to feel sick! Pregnancy is a wild ride.

@Redapple21 I would be the same! So glad it's back for you 😂 even though it's awful!

Ah due date twins. When does your LO turn 2?

I was practically symptomless with my first and I feel the same this time round but it’s making me really anxious so I think I’m going to book an early reassurance scan to check baby is in the right place!

@Mabali she'll be two in September, what about yours?

It's so hard not comparing to the first time! I'm constantly thinking "did I feel like this last time? 🤔". Need to try to relax and not compare too much!

@jaybeez at my booking appointment the midwife said more women get crampy in their second pregnancy because their uterus starts stretching sooner (it remember what it needs to do basically!) and said as long as it’s not severe or only on one side (or accompanied by bleeding), it’s likely absolutely nothing to worry about and is very very normal :)

I’m 6 weeks today also with some of you on lack of symptoms, I have cramping on and off and very sore nipples but that’s been about it, felt tired at 4 week mark but been far less tired recently I do have an aversion to some foods but not in a nausea way just a complete lack of interest in eating them haha my body just wants carbs

7 weeks today. Still a bit bloated now and then, with the odd faint cramp or twinge, though I still think most of that is probably trapped wind 😄 Had to go out for a work dinner last night and definitely felt overfull and grumpy at the end of it - I don't think I can be bothered with shapewear any more 😂 (On the plus side, lime soda turns out to be really nice as a non alcoholic option!)

Still no nausea. Breasts still sore and a bit firmer than before. Agree with some PPs that I'm not sleeping so well, though I think a lot of that is that I feel the need to go to the loo and check everything's OK every time I feel a bit uncomfortable.

Paranoid? Me? 😜

@retrievermum that's really reassuring, thank you!

I’m 6weeks 5 today and I’m exactly the same. I’ve just gone off certain foods but don’t feel sick!
