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?

Does anyone have any thoughts on those SneakPeek gender blood tests that you can allegedly do from 6 or 7 weeks? I stumbled across the website this afternoon and am fascinated - if they really are as accurate as they say I'd be sorely tempted to give it a go in a couple of weeks, assuming everything is still going to plan. No particular reason - I'm just a total information hound 😂

Has anyone had any personal experience / heard anything from friends? It just sounds a bit too good to be true...

Yes saw something about them. Think that's what they do in America. Would like to give it a go 😌

Congratulations @Shivvy1 and @SamWalks! Hope all goes well for you both (well, and for all the rest of us too ☺️)

Also, I'm curious - whereabouts is everyone from? It'd be fun to get a sense of geographical spread.

Anyone else from the Kingston-upon-Thames area by any chance? 😉

Can I join? I wasn't going too until later on and I've been watching but reckoned it would be nice to join, this will be my 4th baby. Last DD is only just 12 months old. We live in Australia but originally from the UK. Due date 12th Febish Flowers

@Honeybunny765 How absolutely lovely! Lucky you 🤩

So lucky it’s absolutely beautiful, my family are down in the deepest part of Cornwall which is even more stunning x

Btw, I noted I am super early (3 weeks and a few days) tests are not too dark but visible. I have taken about 6, digital clearblue is also showing 1-2. Wondered if I should wait another few weeks before testing to confirm? So far I’ve only told my husband and mother. But would love to tell my sisters and close friend. But don’t want to jinx it!

I immediately told my two best friends - the way I see it, if something goes wrong, I'll need support from people I love and trust, so I want them to know. I also need to share how intensely weird and scary it feels, and complain about how sick I feel!!

Agree with this, I’ve told my two besties and my partner obvs but haven’t told my mum. I think she will potentially not be overly keen, this is number 6 for me and it’s a reasonably new relationship that’s currently long distance though we are moving in soon. It’s one of those where you do need to have an outlet of some kind but a place with people you can trust type of thing. I say go for it and tell them if you want to. Xx

I think I’ve messaged everyone who wanted the WhatsApp link but if I’ve missed you send me a DM and I’ll add you 🥰

Hello, please could I have the link to the WhatsApp? I have just joined and due on 2nd Feb 😊

I hope you are all doing ok, this is my 4th pregnancy and I’m feeling pretty horrendous at 5w+3 😔 and forgot how rough early pregnancy can be.

Can I also please have the link to what’s app 🙏 thanks xxx

Essex here. I did another test yesterday as I got my booking and scan appointments through and felt like a fraud, but it came up strong.

Also worried about what my mum will say! Feb is the month my dsis died and parents are planning to go to somewhere warm and sunny for the whole month. I hope they don't feel they have to stay to support us. Feel they might see it as we're selfish but it's just the way it's fallen. DP wants to wait until child is in school before telling them 😂.

I’m 18DPO today and 4w 5 or 6d - got the start of a dye stealer today and did a clearblue digital and got 3+ which I wasn’t expecting I was thinking 2-3!

I was planning to book a private scan at 9 weeks but not sure whether to go earlier or not

Ooh maybe it's twins Grin congrats! I dont know when I ovulated but at 4 days late my digital said 1-2 weeks, reckon that's ok? I'm going to take another in 4 days time and see if it's bumped up!

bravotango · 05/06/2024 12:57

What are peoples thoughts on early scans and holidays? I'll be 8 weeks the day before I go away for 2 weeks, in my last pregnancy I had a scan at 8 weeks which was great and really reassuring. Would you do one the day before you go on holiday? I'm so unsure!

I had a 2-3 weeks at that time too! I’m 5w2d and did another digital today still showing 2-3 weeks so I think I was at the low end of 2-3 then and now I’m hopefully at the higher end..
Got another one to do next week 😅 I’m slightly obsessed…

I’m from south Wales if there’s any other Welshies on this thread!

I was toying with booking a scan at 6 weeks but I’ve booked one for 8 weeks instead 🤞🏼

Confusedmermaid1 · 05/06/2024 13:25

Apologies @Roxttc i misread 😅 great numbers though!

UrbanSquirrel · 05/06/2024 13:48

Just booked a private scan for 14 June (6 weeks 6 days), assuming all is still ticking along by then. And decided to go ahead and book an NIPT for 10 weeks on the dot at the same time. I'm 39 so the potential for chromosomal abnormalities is something that's troubling me a little.

Interesting to read the different experiences with Clearblue. I'm still only showing at 2-3 weeks even now at 5 weeks 4 days. But hey. My first digital last Thursday showed 1-2 weeks at 4 weeks 5 days, so at least it's going in the right direction. 😂

Told my parents last night and telling in laws when they visit tomorrow. Cautious excitement - but given that it's early no one wants to get top carried away just yet. And rightly so!

I think 1-2 weeks at this point is fine that’s what I would be expecting if you! Twins does run in our family but I’d rather just the one for now 🤣
