I have just had a positive result! Looks like I’m due early March 2026.
Second baby for me, eldest is 9 in September.

Thought it would be lovely to have somewhere to share our progress

Another one bowing out of here - scan at 6+6 today didn't show heartbeat or fetal pole and although they’re repeating the scan in a weeks time to be sure, we’ve been here before and I know it won’t be good news and that we’re heading for a MC.

good luck to everyone else with your spring 2026 babies!

Sorry to hear

Another napper here, usually I get my jobs done when little one is napping on a Weds but took full advantage yesterday and had a nap myself. & getting home from work most days I’m having a mini nap before food 🤣

My diet it horrendous I feel so hungry all the time but sick as soon as I eat. I basically want crisps (salt and vinegar) or crunchy nut cornflakes, Plain pasta with cheese. Chocolate makes me want vom and I have the biggest sweet tooth. I seem to be better on a night and can stomach some veggies and salmon etc but goodness as someone who it’s normally really healthy wit food this is not like me 🤣😩 the weight gain will be through the roof if this continues 😆🫣

Are you me?! 😂 I'm living off salt and vinegar crisps, plain pasta and a bit of cheese and crunchy nut cornflakes!! Everything else makes me 🤢

Bumblebee1984 · 24/07/2025 17:00

I also napped today. Haven’t been feeling brilliant today so needed it

peanutForever · 24/07/2025 17:12

hey all had a scan today at epu but im measuring quite a bit behind, has anyone had this? They explained its not so accurate at this stage but baby had a heartbeat and all looked good and theyve also found the source of my bleeding so thats reassuring

Mummysparrow · 24/07/2025 17:37

@peanutForeverhow far behind are they saying and did they see a heart beat? Is there any possibility that your dates are wrong?
I was dated back a week at my 12 week scan and I knew my dates were wrong. Unfortunately there wasnt a good outcome for me as there was a chromosome abnormality. However this doesn't mean that's what happened for you

@Mummysparrowthey are saying 5 days behind and its showing 8 days behind LMP..but i dont have a 28 day my cycle is 30 days... and before taking supplements it was 32 days

all i know is we slept together 16th & 18th and i peaked 19th. We didnt sleep together after that as DH had a shoulder injury.. so not sure when i actually ovulated? Could it have been on the 21st or 22nd making me a later ovulater perhaps?

Yes we saw a heartbeat and 2 weeks ago when i went there was just a sac, no yolk or anything so she said thats really good progress.

Mummysparrow · 24/07/2025 17:55

@peanutForeveri would say it sounds like good progress and may you ovulatied or implanted a little later then thought by a few days and the baby may catch up some of those days by the time 12 week scan comes around.

Haha yes, I am managing little bits of melon but that's it! Really struggling with drinks though, water makes me sick but so does juice! I'm ok with Dr pepper but that's not exactly healthy is it 😭

peanutForever · 24/07/2025 18:06

@Mummysparrowive had a scour of the internet and mums net and seems this is pretty common!?

My good friend just said she lost a whole week of pregnancy..jumped with measurmeents of 6w1 day to 8weeks in the space of a week so it can definitely happen i guess. EPU have given me reassurance scans every two weeks so im back again in 14 days

mummymanic · 24/07/2025 18:17

anybody else have food cravings of things they HATED before? ive been drinking a can or 2 of coke everyday for about a week now. whereas before, it would literally make my teeth itch 😖

I ate corned beef earlier, I mean, wtf.

peanutForever · 24/07/2025 18:45

@Mushroo@mummymanici had a packet of lime crunchy cheetos and dipped them into greek yogurt and literally had a foodgasm over it. The combo would have warranted a dirty look from me in the past but now its all i think about

CL05071998 · 24/07/2025 18:58

@peanutForever with my son they dated me 6 days behind, and I was certain of my dates!
They kept those dates as his due date but he had well caught up at the 12 and 20 week scans and arrived 2 days before the date I had calculated.

So sorry to hear of those getting bad news at scans, I know how difficult a time this is, plenty of rest and just go through the notions, big big hugs x
