Due Feb 2027

[Lao2471]

Just had a tentative early bfp which would make me due Feb 2027. Super scary as we have a not quite 9 month old…fingers crossed it’s sticky.

Anyone else?

Yeah that's what I'm thinking, its just some jump from 1-2 to 3+ in a week, but I'll take it as a positive!

Hey! First time for me, I’m 14-15DPO and tested positive yesterday. My husband noticed I had a ‘glow’ on Wednesday and was convinced I was pregnant before I tested (I thought I looked pasty 😂). I’m already feeling nausea and getting some pain around my ovaries that I’m hoping is just normal ligament pain. Excited, scared, and emotional!

Congratulations to everyone else on this thread x

Hello! Jumping in.
Much longed for 2nd at 44, natural conception. Estimated DD 13/14 Feb 💕

Will be booking for an early scan - seems like maybe good to wait until 7 weeks Vs 6 ??

Had a dye stealer today at 21dpo so I am going to stop testing now. Also had my booking appointment scheduled in. Feeling a little more
real now!

Joining after a positive test at 6am 🥹

it’s been a long journey to get here, only cycle 5 of trying which I know is so lucky, but years of an unhappy marriage and difficult divorce before meeting my current partner. I hope it sticks, it’s everything I’ve ever dreamed of and I’m still shocked and don’t believe it.

Hi ladies, congratulations to everyone on your positive! I've been lurking for a couple of days after a vvfl on 9dpo. 12dpo today and definitely still pregnant so I'm jumping in.

It's my first baby, we have been 'trying' for 10 months but I have PCOS and wasn't ovulation for a lot of that time. Once I sorted that out we were quite lucky and it only took three cycles.

Looking forward to sharing the journey with you all 😊 x

I got a call from the dr to say I've tested positive for group b strep and that I’ll now need “a plan” for giving birth and the dr made it sound quite serious, I’ve been freaking myself out googling it 😢

Congratulations@kikika @ELTWithACupOfTea @Littlebuzz @LazyCat96 🥰 x

Glad you got your dye stealer @Lao2471 😍

Thank you! I’m sorry to hear about what you’re going through with the diagnosis. Hopefully it’s good that it’s been found early and you get more answers on a birth plan ❤️

Hey I'm sorry to read of your diagnosis. Big hugs. Would you mind to share why they've tested so early for this? I'm really curious and wondering if it's something that I should also do earlier.
With my 2 children, strep b wasn't tested until late 2nd trimester or the 3rd trimester if I remember rightly x

I have thrush @anniehall12 so they wanted to do a swab and it was picked up that way. I think I’ve heard it comes and goes? Although they’ve said now I’m positive I’ll get a big sticker on my notes and will need to plan for it

Thank you so much for replying. It's so good that you're already getting such great care. Wishing you all the best xx

@censor22sorry to hear you’ve had that news, I totally get why you’re feeling anxious. I guess on the flip side of things at least you know now as I don’t believe it’s routinely tested for in the uk? I have a couple of friends who had it and all was fine with their births and also their babies 🤍

congratulations and welcome to the new people joining!

I’ve been feeling really rough today, nauseous and no appetite. How is everyone else doing?

After zero symptoms yesterday, I've got that 'hungover' feeling today and feel worn out from the work event I went to yesterday

Ah that’s reassuring to know @Apple2026 ❤️

Fatigue is still my biggest symptom, I’m knackered by 8pm

Zero symptoms for me at the moment. I had a lot of tiredness a few days ago but that seems to have disappeared. Tests are still looking positive so trying to not worry.

Also feeling completely knackered by early evening. I swear last time by 5 weeks I was starting to feel super sick but it just hasn’t happened..yet. I suppose every pregnancy is different!

Hello! Also joining! Pregnant with my 2nd. Not sure how many DPO because after my first a while this was fairly immediate!

@censor22 I had this with my first baby (also picked up when testing for thrush). The "plan" was that I had a cannula put in so I could have antibiotics every four hours. I ended up being induced so really didn't even notice but had been told if went into labour naturally I could still have a water birth. Every trust will be different but wanted to reassure you that for me the difference was very minimal and I was just glad we knew in advance!

Sorry you’re feeling so rough ❤️ I’ve got nausea too but luckily it’s not affecting my appetite hugely yet though starting to get a few food aversions already (or maybe enjoying an excuse to eat more crisps than usual haha), boobs are sore but feels similar to how they would be leading up to my period anyway, but the thing worrying me is that I’m getting cramping. It’s different to period cramps and definitely not super painful but has been coming and going for the last couple days. I have been very sensitive to ovulation pain in the last few years so hopefully I’m just feeling growing pains. I’ll be at 4 weeks tomorrow so just going to keep testing while the pain is happening to keep an eye on things.

Feeling a little nervous with a lack of line progress. Rationally, I know it's not the most important, but after a few early losses this pregnancy feels so fragile. My DS was the only pregnancy where I had good line progression. Anyone else still testing to see the lines? 🙈

me! I'm only 13dpo, there was a massive difference in my line between 11 and 12dpo but then today was basically the same. and to make it worse i dripped water on today's test when I got out of the shower so now it's all smeared 😩 I know I should take that as a sign to stop testing but it's easier said than done!

I'm sorry to hear about your previous losses, all the best for this one, let's stay optimistic ❤️

I tested from 9 do to 20 DPO and there was a significant difference from the first to last test. I based my progress off an article which felt abit better than comparing to everyone on the internet. I haven’t tested for a few days now (which is really hard 😂)

18 DPO was the first test I got that I wouldn’t class as faint 🙏

Thank you so much for sharing this! I had no idea it would take that long to get a strong line. As a first timer there is just so much I have no idea about and I’m a massive over thinker haha
