Found out we are pregnant this week.
I have irregular periods so been put at 14 weeks but could be anything from 5-14 but today I have been starving all day!
When did this kick in for others? Trying to work out how far along I might be roughly!

The next level hungry was between maybe 6 weeks and 14 weeks. I needed snacks pretty much hourly! Have you had an cramping? I was very crampy from 4 weeks to maybe 10 weeks.

oh the hunger is so real lol. mine kicked in hard around week 8 or 9, i went from barely wanting toast to full on eating a second breakfast at 10am like it was a personal mission. no clue if that lines up with your dating but hopefully the scan pins it down soon. congrats btw x

@ThatMintMemberYeah I’m starving around every hour! Not so much crampy but my belly has popped already. This is our second so seems you can get less cramps then.

@Emilychenthankyou - dates are all over the place so going to push for a scan asap so we have a better idea

If you've popped and it's not just bloat hopefully you're later than you think! If you're trousers truly don't fit that might be around 11 weeks haha. I gave up on jeans then.

Ha, I gave up on real jeans embarrassingly early too, leggings have fully taken over my life. The second breakfast thing is so real, I'm basically a hobbit at this point. Hoping your scan bumps you a bit further along than you think.
