Hi!

Thought I'd start a group for those of us just getting our positives now and are due in April 2027!

I've just had a positive from a frozen embryo transfer. One DD and a previous loss and one failed cycle.

Anxious putting one foot in front of the other in these early days!

I did exactly the same with a clear blue digi 2-3 weeks too!

Thanks @LemonCheesecake95 for the WhatsApp group!

@Babybuns26 I'm so sorry about your previous loss, that would of course be sending the anxiety sky high at the moment.

I tested again yesterday before we told my ILs but not really learning anything new from the tests I guess. My midwife appt feels soo early, about 6.5 weeks? Though they now have an app for your pre-booking form which is so much better than last time! Last time it was a very confusing phone appointment with lots of questions I wasn't prepared to answer like the medical history of my husband's extended family. Then I brought him to the 1h booking appt and he was so bored, no reason for him to be there!

Last time the midwife got my ethnicity wrong on the phone appointment and I had a few further appointments where the person thought the wrong patient had come in as a result 😂 so at least the app avoids that this time! I wonder if it means I won't have a paper booklet to bring with me everywhere I go this time?

I got my 3+ weeks on a CB digi today, which I only took because I got caught on the hook effect! The one step cheapies started getting lighter. Cue total panic, but when diluted 50% with water, they went back to blazing positives.

@beeble347- is it badger notes? I got mine sent through today, though no appt yet. Though the pre booking questionnaire doesn't seem to scroll further than the TB test sooo not sure I can finish it. Think it does mean no booklet for us now!

I would love to join the WhatsApp group, but feel I’d like to wait until 12weeks if that’s ok? Feeling quite nervous in first trimester 💕

Orchid887 · 02/08/2026 19:28

Of course @RowsOfFlowers!!

Hey! Yeah bloated and some nausea so far. Otherwise just so tired and HOT. Been able to eat okay so far so trying to get in things like eggs (could barely touch them at all when pregnant with my son) while I can.

Also is baby brain a thing yet or just me? Lost my phone in the house this morning while getting us both ready for the nursery run 🤡

A bit bloated and gassy… no nausea as of yet, just extremely sore boobs (my god) having to wear a non wired bra all the time, even to bed!! and very, very tired… been going to sleep between 8:30-9:30pm most evenings 🙈 💤

Hey girlies, how can I be added to this whatsapp group you’re all talking about? Have I missed something? 🙈

TheUniqueMember · Yesterday 14:19

I don't feel any symptoms at the moment other than stretching sensations in my stomach

Yes, I’ve felt those. Very subtle though.

Hi everyone!
Joining this thread as not completely sure on dates and am likely to be due late March/Early April
I have a 4 year old already and can’t believe how exhausted I feel this time compared to last!
It’s lovely to see such an active thread already!

Welcome! Gosh yeah parenting while pregnant really takes it out of you doesn't it! I have such rose tinted glasses now on my first pregnancy even though I had a lot of nausea and sickness and was working full time - I look back and am so jealous of my unlimited naps 😂

Hey! Welcome! I have a freshly-turned 4 year old too! We had a really busy fun weekend and I ended up falling asleep in her bed last night while I was reading her a book for bedtime, so the tiredness here is real too! 🫠🙈

Orchid887 · Yesterday 22:51

Another one over here with a 4 year old who's often asleep in her chair far before the child drops off!!
