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?

Was about to add that I wouldn’t say I had a strong line until 20dpo either. Try not to worry - easier said than done of course.

I’ve just found out I’m pregnant with baby number 4. Nervous but excited. Will be due 18th of February going by period dates. Be nice to speak to others due around the same time and see how we all get on 😊

@ladypink01I’m due baby number 4 too! It’s exciting but so scary isn’t it?! How old are you other children? Xx

@tierneytarny there’s a bit of a gap, so I’ve got a 16 year old, 13 year old & 8 year old. How about you? Xx

Not enough of an age gap 😂
Nearly 2, 4 and 6.

@tierneytarny lovely age gaps 2 years between each. We would have had another one sooner but had an early loss so hoping this time all will be well 🤞. Im going to be booking an early scan at 6 weeks. Feels like a lifetime away 😂

🤞🤞 for you. I had an early loss last month and it was hard. We’ve been so lucky to fall again so soon. Very anxious this time.

@tierneytarny fingers crossed all goes well for you too🤞. Will keep updated on here x

Tested since 9dpo when I got a very faint line. Last tested and stopped at 16 dpo when I got a dye stealer xx

No worries, first pregnancy for me aswell. I’m also an over thinker 😂 I spent a whole day researching the whole of the internet on DPOs. Just got to hope for the best, it’s not really in our control. I’ve got an early scan booked in for 7 weeks, so I’m hoping that will ease my anxiety abit 🙏 fingers crossed for you too @LazyCat96

@Reevester Glad it’s not just me 😂 that’s a good way to try and think though. I hope your early scan does ease your anxiety, keeping fingers crossed for you x

Shall we get a WhatsApp or Facebook group set up or is it too early? I find it hard to follow the Mumsnet notifications, especially as I'm looking on my phone most of the time

I was too early with the huh no symptoms… today I feel like I’ve been run over 😂 Hope you’re all doing okay!

A WhatsApp group would be nice, I’m happy to set one up if people would like one? Or in a few weeks if people want to wait. Only my partner and sister know in real life and it’s so hard to stay quiet!

Good idea @LawyerishMummaI’d definitely be up for either! When I was pregnant with my son, we started with a Facebook group and then moved over to WhatsApp once the Facebook became a ‘closed’ group

Hi all. Tentatively joining on 10dpo after getting a BFP this morning. I've had 2 previous miscarriages and a chemical pregnancy, plus I'm a bit on the older side so the nerves are definitely there. We are lucky to have 3 lovely kids already - our youngest is 6 so feels a bit like we're starting again after previously having 2/3 year age gaps between them all.
I'm so pleased to be joining you all 😊
EDD looks to be around 20/02/27

is anyone else having sharp shooting twinges in the lower abdomen? I'm getting it at both sides on and off. dr google says it sounds like round ligament pain but I'm only just 4 weeks and it seems like that's super early for it?

A WhatsApp group would be nice. I don’t always come on here or get the notifications. @kikika I’ve been getting a few twinges and cramps on and off but nothing major. I think it’s normal in the first couple of weeks. @MamaGeordie your due the same time as me, I’m roughly due on 18th of Feb with baby number 4. My youngest is 7 nearly 8. Hope everything goes smoothly for you. I can’t stop worrying about something going wrong but trying to stay positive and stay away from testing too much as I start panicking if the test line doesn’t darken day by day!

kikika Yep! I'm 4 weeks today, but I have been feeling the sharp twinges since Friday, on and off, mostly on my right but sometimes on my left. Sometimes it just turns into dull pain across my whole lower abdomen. I've googled and found the same so unless I get any other symptoms or if it gets more painful, I'm assuming it is ligament pain. Did you usually feel ovulation pain and get bad period cramps? I'm partly putting it down to the fact I always had painful cycles so I might just be more sensitive to anything happening down there.

I'd be up for that too 😊

I would like to join a WhatsApp group too please 😊

@kikikayes, I've been having those too. They sometimes feel like low dull aches, other times a bit pinchy. I'm trying not to read into them too much and rationalising that things are growing and changing 🤞
Although I've tested 4 times today and checked my tissue relentlessly when wiping 🙈

Ah how lovely @ladypink01- massive congrats to you. I never thought I'd be a Mam of 4 but here we are. I've given everything baby related away so all being well, I will literally have to start again. Fingers crossed for a very straightforward and healthy pregnancy for us both 🥰

Im definitely noticing pains today and starting to panic a little. Have a real ache in my lower back, it just feels heavy and think I've seen a little bit of brown spotting when wiping. Keeping everything crossed but freaking out....

Would also be keen to join a group if things work out well for me

Also up for a WhatsApp, I forget to come
on here and check updates, would be lovely to have somewhere to chat!

I've been having cramping and light pink when wiping this afternoon - worried and just need to wait it out. 😥

Keeping everything crossed ♥️

@ELTWithACupOfTea
I get this! I'm very in-my-head in the first few weeks of pregnancy and not being able to talk about it 'in real life' doesn't help. My husband knows of course (though, I didn't tell him until a week after suspecting I was pregnant due to visiting family making it impossible for private conversation!) and a lady in my prayer group because I had a bit of panic one afternoon. I feel bad not telling my best friend, as she was the first person I told last time, but I'm also not ready to actually tell anybody yet so most of family will probably find out at about 10 weeks.

Feel free to set up a WhatsApp group :)
