Thought I would make a thread for those due in March 2027, I joined a thread for my previous rainbow pregnancy in 2022 and I found it so helpful. I found out this week that I am pregnant with my second rainbow baby, after losing my first baby at 29 weeks. I am feeling incredibly anxious, more so than in my first pregnancy after my loss. Wishing everyone a smooth pregnancy ahead 🤞🏼

Currently 7dpo the most sore boobs and weeing a lot, I had a chemical pregnancy in may, didn’t ovulate in June and this month have the most positive LH spike I think I might have ever had, really hoping to properly join this chat in the next week or so

Nervously joining this thread. Been trying for a few months, period was due last weekend and didn't arrive so tested and...pregnant! Which I think makes me 4 weeks and 3 days, as of today. I keep going between excited and nervous, still feels like it could all change at any minute, plus I'm 40 so an older FTM so worried about that too.

Congratulations @lavenderandlemon. Perfectly normal to feel both excited and nervous at the same time, it’s definitely a rollercoaster! 😅

Hello all! I think I'm around 7 ish weeks so far, haven't had an estimated due date yet but I'm reckoning early March. I has a loss before this so trying to not think too much on it at the moment but I would love to join a whatapp group if someone could PM me a link.

xnicole · 16/07/2026 19:49

Hey everyone! I am 26, a first time Mum to be! I just found out last week I am around 7 weeks pregnant. I have no clue what to expect, I would love to be added into any what’s app groups 🩷

SantiagoSister · 16/07/2026 20:26

Congratulations and welcome @Itsabeaut and @xnicole! Have sent you both the WhatsApp link 😊

Yes I'm booked on 27th July at EPU due to a previous pregnancy of unknown location. I'll be 6 + 1.

Hopefulmama21 · 16/07/2026 23:36

I have a scan booked for Saturday morning 🤞🏻 I'll be 7+3 since LMP.

ByAquaFox · 17/07/2026 04:03

Im booking one but nervous to book it too early due to previous miscarriages 😩

Wow our estimates are really close.
I have one booked for tonight (7+5), bit nervous but with having such mild symptoms I just really needed to know so caved a while back and booked one.

LifeByTheSea123 · 17/07/2026 11:24

Ahh how exciting. Hope everyone’s go ok 😊

Hopefulmama21 · 17/07/2026 13:30

@ImpatientlyTryingToConceive that's the reason I booked too. I have no symptoms except a rapidly expanding abdomen and I'm knackered lol.

If you get pictures later I'd love to see!

Wishedfor2021 · 17/07/2026 16:18

I’ve booked a private scan for when I’ll be 8+3 so 2 weeks today, and the wait feels forever!

6+3 and the symptoms have well and truly hit here, morning sickness has began and I am SO tired! I’m not usually a person who could nap but feel like I could have at least 3 a day at the moment which is impossible with two other little people to look after 😅

Also has anyone else been told by the midwife they need to take ferrous sulphate on top of other pregnancy vitamins? My midwife sent me to the pharmacy just for them to tell me I need a prescription which she is still telling me I don’t need 🤦🏼‍♀️

I had to take that for my last pregnancy and needed a prescription!

I’m 7 weeks and so knackered and really nauseous…feeling quite miserable 😞

I have a real baby! Measuring 7w+6.
I told them where I thought the baby would be and I was right!
Hope yours is just as good tomorrow @Hopefulmama21

Due March 2027

We have a baby 🥰 measuring at 7+1 and saw a strong healthy heartbeat.

She did identify a subchorionic hematoma, I haven't had any bleeding and she said not to worry but I can't help but google so I plan to call the EPU for advice as I exercise quite a lot so want to be sure I'm not doing anything wrong.
