I have found out VERY early that I am pregnant and due early June (I am only 10dpo today) and found out yesterday I am pregnant (22 Sept)

Wanted to start this thread for those of you who have also just found out :) I found the thread when I was pregnant with my son super helpful!

I'm Lexie, 32, have a 14 month old son so am just squeezing in 2 under 2 :)

@Chaz693 my son is only 18months old so I feel like I should remember the process 😂
I have long irregular cycles so I've booked in with the midwives as going by lmp they think I'm about 3weeks ahead of what I think I am and I didn't want to be told off for leaving it late.

Hi,

I got a BFP yesterday- think it puts my due date at 11 June. We have a 2 year old (26months) it took 8 months to conceive him, so we thought it would take at least as long this time (I’m 39 now), but this was only the 2nd month of trying. Hasn’t really sunk in yet. DH is stressing as he wanted to move house first - to be honest he still does, but I think we’re best staying here for Mat leave etc.

I feel like I can’t remember so much stuff from the first time round!

Best wishes to everyone. X

Does anyone else feel really stressed about things you can and can't do 😬Trying to relax and today got some of my cats flea spot on treatment on my hand which has made me feel really awful for not wearing gloves and wondering if now I've caused any harm. Washed my hands about 10 times!x

Angelselevenx · 06/10/2024 19:19

What symptoms has everyone got? I'm 4w1d (15dpo) and got a bit of cramping this evening, only lasted a few seconds but it definitely makes you worried. Other symptoms so far is a metallic taste on and off and sore nipples!

Chaz693 · 06/10/2024 19:21

@Angelselevenx I've just got the constant need to pee. And my breasts feel a bit tender but not painful. Had some cramping on and off but other than that I feel pretty good. I'm 4 weeks 3 days. So know it's early and it's likely to get more as time goes on. X

Daniki · 06/10/2024 19:26

Constant need to pee, sore boobs on and off, and I can't stop eating. But nausea is kicking in a wee bit and random times 😂 and I'm very warm

5w2d here. Sore and heavy boobs, increased appetite, on and off mild cramps and waking up at bloody 6 am every day. So weird! 😂I've been pretty sleepy today, too. Will see if that's a regular feature, or just a one off.

MittensForKittens123 · 06/10/2024 19:51

I’m 4w 4d, and have got sore nipples (I’m still BF my 2yo too), a headache and feel a bit queasy.

Has anyone thought about organising their nhs flu jab?

Angelselevenx · 06/10/2024 20:00

Oh yes the tiredness! Forgot about my daily 45 minute naps 😂 and I'm so hot too! Hoovered the house and was literally sweating. Oh and I'm SO out of breath. Just a few things 😂

iridescentbloom · 06/10/2024 22:09

I feel like I've had sooooo many symptoms already and I'm only 5w3d 😅 can't believe I've only known for just over a week... time is going so slowly!

I've booked my flu jab for next weekend and have booked an early reassurance scan at 8 weeks. Haven't had my booking in appointment through yet, has anyone else had theirs through?

Sparklyfi · 06/10/2024 13:14

Same and this is my first 😬

I am too I was also with my little boy but it was very smooth

Perexi · 06/10/2024 22:16

dmb91 · 06/10/2024 11:39

@Chaz693 yes! Feel like I should be 7/8 weeks, just checked and only 5+2 🤦‍♀️
Have my booking appointment on the 16th, does the dating scan get booked then or is it booked separately?

Last time I got my scan appointment and a load of others at the booking appointment

Bewildened · 07/10/2024 05:58

I’ve got way more symptoms than I’ve ever had this early before- cramps, sore boobs, extreme painful bloating, bad skin and a bit of nausea. I’m only 4+4!

Es92 · 07/10/2024 07:25

Morning everyone, can I join? Got a bfp on Friday, have continued testing like a mad woman and am now finally believing that it actually might be true 😱
Feeling sooo nauseous, tired and bloated already!

Bakingandcrying · 07/10/2024 09:36

Morning everyone, got a BFP today and I’m still in shock. According to Flo I’m 3 weeks and 6 days. I already have a 14 year old so huuuuge age gap and I’ve pretty much completely forgotten everything about having a baby 😂

hope everyone’s pregnancy’s are going well ❤️

Congratulations! We’re a bit late to the thread but better late than never! Hope you’re getting on ok with your symptoms ❤️

Es92 · 07/10/2024 10:57

@Bakingandcrying congratulations on your bfp this morning!!! How exciting 🩷

Sobersally · 08/10/2024 10:50

I’m only 9DPO today so very very early but I find these threads really helpful, got positive lines today on CB, FR and easy at home tests 🥰🤞🏻✨

Ruffpuff · 08/10/2024 11:23

Can I join?

I got my bfp at 10 dpo on Sunday. I have no idea how far along that makes me, but it’s about 4 weeks since my LMP.

I have a little boy who’s nearly 6 so it’s been a while. I’m quite anxious because I’ve had a MC and a Mmc at 9 weeks in the past! This one was a bit of a (welcome) surprise…I’m just so worried it won’t stick 😬

Soprano1985 · 08/10/2024 13:56

Congratulation to all those with new BFPs. @Sobersally @Bakingandcrying @Ruffpuff

Does anyone have previous experience of light spotting in early pregnancy. Woke today at 5+1 with very light pink blood, a drop or two on a pad, no cramps and still a strong positive line. Never had this in my first pregnancy 9 years ago.

Doubt EPAU can do or offer much advice until 6+ weeks. Such a rollercoaster of emotions

Ruthcee · 08/10/2024 14:23

Hi! Bit late, can I join? 😊
34, 5w5d, 1st pregnancy, bfp at 10dpo.
Thankfully no nausea yet but really struggling with hip/lower back pain already - not sure what it could be but it’s definitely muscular as it only seems to be triggered by sitting down for a while and exercise.
Also feeling very anxious/overthinking everything!

Rivermay · 08/10/2024 14:42

@Soprano1985 I had I little bit when wiping which lasted a day. Im onlt 4+3 now. It really is an emotional rollercoaster ride. Have you got a scan booked? I did ring my midwife and was told to wait and see (she did said its normal and happens quite often) she also booked me in for a scan in 15 days. So nervous 😓 😟

Bewildened · 08/10/2024 14:57

Congratulations to the new joiners!

I am 4+6 today and really feeling awful - extremely painful bloating, nausea in the mornings, knackered by early evening but then wide awake at 6am worrying about everything. I had a dream last night that I was having identical twins which is probably just my subconscious fears talking!

Ruthcee · 08/10/2024 16:21

@Bewildened the bloating is insane isn’t it! No one warns you about it!
