November 2025

[Esssa]

Anyone else for November 2025 yet? Technically I'm due Halloween but highly likely to be a first half of November baby assuming everything goes well. 3+6 today and I've known since Tuesday at 3+3! Roll on double figures and feeling a bit more secure in it all.

Oh ladies im so so sorry to hear this @Esssa and @lynzmb sending gentle hugs 💔if you want us to start a new thread essa we can, it’s rough getting reminders x

@lynzmb EPU may not be able to do much over the weekend (or at all) so it’s likely now the awful awful waiting game before your scan. Generally they say if you’ve soaked through more than 3 pads in 2 hours or if you’re passing large clots or if the pain is unmanageable with paracetamol, it’s worth getting checked at a&e in case something else is happening. But otherwise, as horribly wrenching as it is, women are often left to face it at home and wait for the bleeding to stop. Of course definitely go to your epu scan next week too, whatever happens this wkend. If you’re not in tonnes of pain and if the bleeding isn’t out of control, I’d curl up in a duvet and have a good cry rather than waiting for hours for a hospital app or epu phone call that might not come. But It’s heartbreaking and I’m so sorry.

praying the bleeding stops soon 🙏

I too am on this train after a lot of bleeding this week, scan booked for weds and trying to come to terms with it being out of my hands once agan. Holding onto hope as ever - sometimes bleeding is not the end x

Well I did my CB digital and it’s come back 2-3. By LMP I should be 5+2 so I was hoping for 3+ but I didn’t track ovulation so I’m just telling myself it’s possible I ovulated late. It was a 2-pack so I’ll wait a few days and do another, how long do you think I should wait to get a clearer answer?

Thanks so much for the advice @Mothership2025. I've not soaked a pad yet, so holding on to a bit of hope. Have decided to go away slightly later this morning. DS has gone with my parents, and me and DH will follow. I feel ok, just like a heavy period really. And it's a timeshare in the UK we are going to, so home from home really and I can go to A&E there if it gets worse.

Sorry to hear you've had bleeding too. Everything crossed for your scan this week. xxx

That’s good your parents could take DS and you’ve got a bit more time, and also that you’re in the UK and can just go to A&E if needed. I really hope it eases off for you soon. Xx

I’m just about to go round and tell my parents! Got this tshirt for my 3year old…. I genuinely don’t know why I’m so nervous, they’ll be thrilled! But the butterflies are so intense I think I’m going to be sick 😂 I need someone to give me a pep talk 🤣 xx

@BessieBye that is sooo cute 🥹

and to the ladies that have supported me so far, just thought i would give an update.. i finally got my 2-3 weeks this morning!! so atleast for now i can just relax until my scan 🤞🏻 💕

Aw I'm so pleased!! I contacted my doctor yesterday and he's referred me to my epu so hopefully they will get me in next week for an early scan 🤞🤞

@Nikkix86 eeeekk excited for you!! on what grounds has he refered you? have you had a misscarriage before or ectopic pregnancy? x

Yeah I had a caesarian ectopic so the baby has implanted in my scar which is really dangerous so it's to check it's in the right place

@Nikkix86 omg that sounds terrifying! never heard of a caesarian ectopic before! but hopefully this time around for you everything will be ok🤞🏻

It happens to 1 in 2000 people and I managed to be unlucky 🙈 but it's best to catch it early which is why they want to do an early scan to check where implantation is 🤞 I hope so thankyou ☺️

Thinking of you @lynzmband @Esssa

how did telling your parents go @BessieBye, I bet it was a sweet moment with DD wearing the t shirt

still not really any symptoms here, I’ve decided to wait until Wednesday to do my remaining CB digital when it really should be 3+ and then I’ve got a private scan booked for the following week so not too long to wait (who am I kidding when every day feels like a year at this stage!)

@Writerscompanion haha 😆 the early days always seem to drag dont they 🙄 how far along are you? when are you due?

They do! Should be 5+3 but my average cycle length is 31 days according to Clue so I think I possibly ovulated later and am a bit behind that. Supposed to be 20th Nov according to the app. How about you?

4+5 todatly and due on 25th November.. average cycle lengh for me is anything from 26days-29days according to flo. dont have a clue of when i ovulate 🤦🏻‍♀️

@Writerscompanion sorry forgot to tag you in my message

No I haven’t been tracking ovulation this time, makes it all a bit more of a guessing game!

@Writerscompanion certainly does!

Hello! Tentatively joining as another November 2025 baby hopefully. I’m currently 6w 3d with my first baby so due date is currently November 13th - I think this may be moved out as I believe I ovulated on CD 24 although not entirely sure how it works - wishing everyone lots of luck xx

@MTB122 congratulations to you! & welcome to the thread 😊

Welcome @MTB122!

Hello and welcome @MTB122🙂

Welcome and congrats 🥰

Ah it was amazing thank you! I feel relieved now they both know, I need their support as a chronic over thinker/analyser, so I’m pleased I’ve told them already 🙏🏼

Agree with you that every day feels like it lasts forever… maybe that’s because I’ve been awake before 6 every day this week testing 🫣
