Due April 2026

[SmartiesParty]

Just had a positive, faint line and a 1-2 on clear blue. This puts my due date as April 2nd. Anyone else??

i have a 1 year old but it doesn’t make this pregnancy any less anxiety inducing!

Oh bloody hell, easy for them to say! A private scan sounds like a good idea for peace of mind. :)

Yay @ForGiddyDreamer so nice to see you here! Glad to hear things are still
going well. Got everything crossed for you 🫶🏼

Thanks @DoubleDandelion how are you getting on?

Nothing much to report @ForGiddyDreamer, 6 weeks on Thursday, zero symptoms so far, very different to my pregnancy with the twins. Trying not to overthink it and let it worry me too much.

How’s all your “relaxing” going? 🫣🙃

Hi ladies,

just after some reassurance right now…

6 weeks today, I have been feeling very nauseous the last 2/3 days but alongside that mild cramps (not painful) I felt these about 2 weeks ago when I first found out I was pregnant but they have appeared again.

tests still appear dark, no other symptoms and not bleeding or spotting

EPU is closed.

@DoubleDandelion I wonder will you have a much easier time of it symptoms wise since you're cooking one. But who knows, maybe there's another set in there!

@SCK2024 I'm 5+5 today so a little behind you. I have felt cramp like twinges since last night. Feels like I've pulled something, which is what I felt in the days after my positive test (maybe 13dpo). I have a history of loss so can be anxious. My googling, however, tells me that light cramping can be very normal as everything in there is stretching and moving about.

@SCK2024i have had a lot of cramping too & I remember this from my previous pregnancy also x

I don’t remember anything from my last pregnancy (11yrs ago 🤦🏻‍♀️) it’s like a brand new journey for me.

i feel rotten today 😓

How does everyone feel about anti sickness meds? My mum said do research as she remembers the issues back when she had me.

@TealDream @ForGiddyDreamer Same o read light cramping is normal, I feel so anxious.

i have an 8 week scan when I get back from holiday so I’ll be more reassure by then x

Welcome everyone who recently got their positives!
@SCK2024my last baby was 18 months ago and yet I still remember nothing. I hope you feel better soon or get some meds, I’m debating on going to the doctor for some or just trying to wait it out

So sorry I havent been on here for a while. Yes it feels like your period is going to come and then cramping stops. I've had mild cramping since on and off.

Congratulations @hopeandpray1610- looks like good line progression. Sorry for your previous losses.
also congrats @BeastAngelMadwoman- great you got a BFP so quickly again. Sorry for your loss too.
and @ForGiddyDreamer- congratulations, lots of us in late 30s here too. Sorry for your loss and hope the medication is helping.
Sorry if I’ve missed any other new joiners - congratulations all and 🙏🏻 for us all. It’s a nerve wracking time (I have also had a previous loss - seems a lot of us have here).

I am SO so tired. Would love to stay in bed all day one day but impossible unfortunately!! 🙈😂

Hi everyone! Tentatively joining, had a big shock yesterday when I went for an ultrasound for suspected PCOS and the nurse told me she can see a gestational sac!! Came home and did SO many tests and here I am! Think I'm due towards the end of April. Still don't quite believe it, the only symptom I have is tiredness.. how is everyone else doing?

Nausea,food aversions and morning sickness. And dry mouth

Hello all! Joining here as I tested positive last week, quite late I think at 12dpo with a vvfl but the progression has been reassuring and last night got 2-3 weeks on a CBDigi. This is baby #3 for me, never thought I’d have three but here we are and I’m tentatively so excited. Currently barely able to move without feeling sick and dizzy, the bloating is unreal I look at least 7 months gone

Thanks @pistachiopastry

@CharlOctober wow that must have been a shock! Congratulations 🥰 I'm likewise so tired. Also finding it difficult to concentrate with work. My mind keeps wandering. I've been so unproductive since finding out.

@BritishDesiGirl those symptoms sound rough. I've no sickness yet, I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow. Just tiredness and sore nips, but even that comes and goes.

@7nationbaby congratulations 🥰

@ForGiddyDreamer thanks, it was a shock but a very welcome one, my cycles have been all over the place for the past year so was ready to be told I have PCOS & would have trouble conceiving! Congratulations to you too, and sorry to hear about your previous losses. It seems such a long time until first appointment or scan doesn't it. Yes I've been exactly the same, can't concentrate at work at all my head is all over the place!

Congratulations @7nationbaby and @pistachiopastry too! Those symptoms sound awful @britishdesigirl Hope you're managing to get some rest!

Morning, I’m 6w1 day now. My boobs have been so so tender. feel like I’ve run a marathon without a bra and I don’t have big boobs! Also feeling a bit nauseous but not been sick. Hope everyone is doing well x

Due 26th :) when does the midwife conta t you after registering ? I feel like I dont know where to go or if i should be doing something ? - the reason I am worried is because last pregnancy i contacted them and ended up being further along than I thought and missed lots of early tests they said I needed and dont want the same his time ? X

Hi all,

I found out a couple of days ago (on the 19th) and I'm still processing! Baby is due on April 30 based on my last period! I feel SO anxious, FTM and every little twinge has me Googling and social media is full of terrifying stories so I'm just trying not to overthink everything and hope for the best! Such a nice thread to find, so comforting knowing there's other people in the same boat.

My DH and I were joking about it, because our birthdays are both in April and now we're about to have an April baby too! April will be packed with birthdays for us if my due date is accurate :D

Welcome everyone 🙂

@Chelsea0310 I think it depends a lot on your area when and how they contact you. I filled in a self referral form on a Friday and was called Monday afternoon so a relatively quick turn around but then my booking in appointment still isn’t for over 3 weeks so I’ll be 10 weeks by then! I think they do appointments later when it’s not your first pregnancy here.

@RoseRobinW early pregnancy is such a nerve wracking time but try to just take each day as it comes and as hard as it is stay away from google! A really great consultant in my previous pregnancy said that yes lots of other women had been pregnant before but no one had ever been me pregnant before so not to worry so much about other people’s experiences (admittedly this was much later on but I think the reasoning still stands)!

Wow this is a good story to tell the baby! ☺️ congratulations!

I’m also 6 weeks today. Got an early scan on Friday 29th as I’ve had previous losses and having scanxiety already .

Hi everyone, tentatively joining at 4wks 4 days - if it sticks it’ll be my first, due on 27 Apr! 38, but turn 39 in mid-Apr. Nice to see others of a similar age :)

Feeling pretty ropey with almost constant nausea, cramping, fatigue and headaches for the 5 days since my first BFP. Still struggling to believe it’ll stick though - having a chemical earlier this year really knocked my confidence, but I’m trying to channel some positivity vibes!

Hello new joiners & congrats! This is my 4th pregnancy but I’m still googling like mad. I think maybe pregnacare vitamins are making me ill though, so once I’ve had scan next week I’m going to call docs and sort that out. I’ve been a weepy, exhausted mess and not being able to tell my kids why I’m all over the place is really hard 😭
