Hey!

I am 4 weeks 6 days today and wondering if anyone out there is of similar gestation or has similar due date to me! Feeling quite lonely in this pregnancy (last pregnancy my best friend was pregnant at the same time so we always had each other!) and just wondered if there was anyone else feeling the same and wanted to share experiences 😊

I’ve had mild symptoms come and go and got my dye stealer on cheapie yesterday at 21dpo 💖

Been panicking about miscarriage as I’m sure lots of people do, but feeling a little better since I got my dye stealer.

fingers crossed for a healthy 9 months ❤️

@RozzieRoo @Countrygirl300 aww so glad your scans went well ❤️ you're both making me super impatient though now for mine haha still 10 days away 😩

Babydreamer123 · 15/11/2024 18:46

@Countrygirl300 @RozzieRoo that's great news, congratulations

I had an EPU scan due to spotting and cramping yesterday, measuring around 5 weeks, just gestational sac and yolk sac seen, no heartbeat yet, 4.4mm. So tiny! They've booked me in a follow up for two weeks time so hopefully i will see more then!

For now, slight nausea and tiredness but that's about it.

RozzieRoo · 15/11/2024 19:19

@Countrygirl300 @Babydreamer123 aww so happy for you both!! Tiny tiny babies ❤️❤️❤️ nausea and tiredness are great signs ❤️❤️

@Babydreamer123 and @MaltipooMama maybe try to plan lots of distracting things to keep your mind off the wait? although to be honest I did that and when it came to doing the things a week later I felt too rubbish 😂🥴

@RozzieRoo well to be honest we're actually going away on holiday to wales tomorrow
and when we get back on Friday the scan would be the following Monday so at least we'll be able to keep busy! However, I also received my sneakpeak blood test results yesterday but they're inconclusive because there wasn't enough blood in the sample 😭 which means they're going to resend a complimentary test to my address and we won't be able to access it for six days as we're away 😩 so it's bloody typical, I want to go on holiday to keep busy until the scan, but I also want to stay home so I can complete the new gender test, so I'm basically acting like a spoilt child now 🤣

Eirlys75 · 16/11/2024 09:31

@RozzieRoo @Countrygirl300 sp glad to hear about your scans....love that you both saw the little heartbeat!!

RozzieRoo · 16/11/2024 13:16

@MaltipooMama omgggg I’m so annoyed for you!! 😂 at least you have a week of distraction! Enjoy your holiday and I am so excited for you when you get back 🥰 do you have any idea what they could be?

@Eirlys75 thank you!! Don’t you just wish you had an ultrasound machine at home so you could see them every day ❤️ if my dating scan is after Xmas I’ll book a private one before, can’t wait to see them again. How are you feeling?

Lovely to read some of you seeing your babies heartbeat.

I'm almost 6 weeks and the bloating has calmed down, still there but nowhere as bad. Sickness comes and goes, twinges every so often. 2 weeks until my scan. I've got small spot/blisters on my hands which I've never had before so going to get in touch with Dr on Monday.

RozzieRoo · 16/11/2024 16:54

Oh dear @Duckwars, could it be hand foot and mouth?
Glad your pregnancy is going well, can’t wait for you to see your baby 😊

Love all the happy scan news, must be so exciting. 10 days to go till mine!!

mummasoph · 17/11/2024 19:11

Hey everyone! I've been off here since I first posted as I've been really poorly and generally struggling with first trimester stuff 😂😩 but I had some spotting this morning so rang my local maternity unit and they've booked me in for a scan at the EPU on Tuesday morning. The bleeding has eased off for the moment and hoping everything will be ok 🤞🏽 glad to see some of you girls have had scans and all is well. Really got no clue what I could be having this time (all being well) I never felt sick with either of my two daughters and this time round I feel sick all day everyday and so wiped out I find it so hard just getting up to make myself a brew 😂

RozzieRoo · 18/11/2024 11:39

@CadoAvo thank you!! Can’t wait for yours ❤️

@mummasoph bless you!! You poor thing. Twins?? 👯 👀🙈 how far along are you now? Sorry about the spotting, it must be so scary. Hope your scan goes well ❤️

I’m about 7 weeks today and my nausea has been a bit better the last couple of days. Don’t know wther to worry or enjoy it 😂🙈

It doesn't look like it but got an appointment with the Dr tomorrow so hopefully can get answers and either cream or tablets to help as it's very painful.

romdowa · 18/11/2024 18:40

I'm 8 weeks Wednesday and due 1/2 July and I've every symptom known to woman. I'm just dreaming of the day my placenta kicks in 😅😅

CadoAvo · 18/11/2024 19:41

@RozzieRoo when you say your nausea is better can you describe it? I'm 7 weeks tomorrow and today my nausea has felt better, although not gone. I've still felt icky and blah but not enough to take an anti sickness tablet, which I've been taking like candy since I got them 😅

My nerves are slowly creeping up. At this point in my first pregnancy, it was gone. And at this point in my 2nd pregnancy I was about to start spotting so I'm on high alert this week and just want to sleep the next week away until my 8 week scan and find out everything is okay 🥺 I do take comfort in the nausea as I didn't have that in either of my previous pregnancies.

mummasoph · 19/11/2024 13:50

Had my scan today, amazing healthy heartbeat measuring 7 weeks to the day. All fine I have like a little pouch next to the womb where it's implanted which is likely the cause of the bleeding and may experience more but little peanut is doing great 😊

MaltipooMama · 19/11/2024 15:40

Hey everyone, hope you are all doing well! Is anyone else absolutely bloated af at the moment?! 😅 my first pregnancy 18 months ago I was still in a size 10 at nearly 12 weeks, this time I'm not even 8 weeks and have a god awful kangaroo pouch, I swear there's more than one baby in there!! Genuinely scared for my scan on Monday in case I'm right 🙈

MaltipooMama · 19/11/2024 15:41

Oh and the fatigue... Jesus! I'm drifting off like every bloody minute of the day! I was so full of energy last time right up until my 9th month!

Ohh I'm so glad that you were able to see a heartbeat, and everything is fine!! 🥰. Must be such a relief for you. How are you feeling?

I have my second scan tomorrow. I felt relieved last week at the scan, but I did the worst thing and eventually ended up on Google. Now I'm conscious it may be a blighted ovum. So, I'm praying that I see some development tomorrow!! I'll be 6.5 weeks according to me, and 6.2 weeks according to the measurements last week. Not sure if it's been the nausea or anxiety today that has made me feel really sick!

Eirlys75 · 19/11/2024 16:57

@MaltipooMama I'm with you on the bloating! Today is the forst day that it's gone down a little, but it's been unbelievable how bloated I look and feel! And the lethargy is also killing me. The nausea is starting to kick in more. I've felt nauseous all through today more or less, whereas usually it's only first thing in the morning. I do have a scan tomorrow (like I said above), so I'm wondering whether it's more anxiety!

mummasoph · 19/11/2024 16:59

@Eirlys75 I'm feeling relieved and I'm actually a couple days further on that I thought. Very happy everything is ok, but physically I'm just exhausted feel sick all the time and just been signed off work for a week with tonsillitis so not feeling my best.

I'm sure yours will go great, Google is not your friend! Or any of ours for that matter 😂 sending you lots of luck and flutters for your scan tomorrow! Xx

RozzieRoo · 20/11/2024 13:05

Hey girls! Sorry I’ve been quiet on here last few days, busy, sick and exhausted but powering through 💪🏻😂

@Duckwars hope you're feeling better? Xx

@CadoAvo just not so bad when I wake up the last few days, or not so persistent throughout the day if you know what I mean? so I’ve managed to get some things done that I weren’t able to before, and some days the fatigue has been a little better. But even today I thought I was fine and then it hit me like a ton of bricks, suddenly I thought I was going to throw up in the car. I still feel pregnant if that makes sense, sometimes I wonder if I’ve just adapted to the surge of hormones and my body learns to cope with it before it starts rising again. How have you been feeling?

@romdowa hey! Congratulations 🥳 Your baby is due on my birthday (1st ) 🥰🥰 how are you coping?

@mummasoph look at your picture!! 🥹 how lovely! So so glad it went well and you have explanations to put your mind at ease 💖 I wish we could have a video of their little hearts beating to watch every day 😂 I think you’re exactly the same gestation along as I am!

@MaltipooMama i feel you with the tiredness 😴😴 I’m struggling to get the basics done some days. Not sure about your little one but mines dropped a nap but I keep trying to get her down so I can nap with her 😭😂 How’s your holiday with all the symptoms? Not long until your scan now🥰

@Eirlys75 prayers for you today, I hope it goes well and Google hasn’t terrified you too much. ❤️

I'm still in bits 🤣 everything makes me feel sick , my blood pressure is to the floor and I'm exhausted . I look great though apparently 🙈 my skin is starting to get that glow!

Duckwars · 20/11/2024 14:22

Sorry I forgot to update, dr said I've got eczema from stress so gave me cream to help clear it up.

@romdowa I wish I had glow, I look like I've been dragged through a bush backwards 😂

Thanks for asking :) I'm mostly okay, main symptoms are very sore breasts (one more than the other) occasional cramping, tiredness that seems to hit me at different times of the day. No nausea or anything yet. Trying to remember how I felt when pregnant with my DD as I know I had really strong food aversions and nausea but can't remember when it kicked in! Got a follow up scan next Wednesday which can't come soon enough
