Hi everyone! Hope I’m not the only one with early testing impatience🤣I’ve tested positive (I hope!) for a day or two now, currently 9DPO. Due date would be June 2nd based on LMP if all goes okay.

I’m 25 with an almost 4yo son but this will be my partners first child. We conceived in April straight after I got my coil removed but unfortunately at a private scan we found out at 7 weeks I was having a missed miscarriage (blighted ovum) and I’ve had two surgeries to remove the tissue between June and July. This was my first cycle since the loss and I’m so unbelievably grateful to have gotten pregnant again but also terrified about it not lasting which sucks because I was sooo excited last time but I guess that’s what happens after a loss.

anyways I hope some more of you are at the same stage as me with early positives and we can be in this together!

Hi, may I join on here?

I've had to really guess at my dates as I've not had a scan yet, but I'm guessing I'm due in June at some point.

The whole thing has been a bit of a shock and I'm overwhelmed with everything I need to do in preparation.

Is anyone else having a horrible first trimester? I feel so so sick and so so exhausted, I am panicking about what to do for work (I run my own business). My first pregnancy I was very sick but managed symptoms and managed to continue. This time I’m struggling massively. I am only managing a few hours up and about a day. Even when laying down I’m so tired/sick I usually don’t even want to be on my phone or watch tv. I’m booked in for a blood test as suspect I’m anemic. But currently don’t even have energy to get it done. Anyone in the same boat or finding strategies that actually help?

I tried eating little but often one day last week and I vomited quite a lot so don’t think that works for me. So now I’m mostly eating a good/big lunch, but can’t face dinner.

normally I’m not actually sick but retch. Honestly, it’s worse. Because I constantly feel on the verge of being sick. On the few occasions I’ve been sick it’s actually been a huge relief (for five minutes).

don’t really want to take medication other than iron supplements as try to avoid that in general unless strictly necessary , let alone when pregnant.

im only 9 weeks 😬 last time my sickness lasted to 16 weeks…

Edited

I’ve been having a tough time too! First pregnancy and have HG for which I needed treatment in hospital. I want to be positive but can’t deny how hard it’s been too.

Roll on second trimester šŸŽ‰

Hi, I was wondering if I could join the WhatsApp group please?

Not sure if this will help anyone but I looked at old threads on here for morning sickness advice and got some good tips - anti sickness acupuncture bands. I bought these fully expecting them not to work in the slightest but I haven’t taken them off for two days and am functioning again…! Could be luck or maybe they work?! Also plain tortilla chips and guacamole/smashed avocado. Also flat coke, small sips. I’m eating less but coping better. Hope this helps x

Hello! I’m 9wks+6 days today, and due 3rd June. I’m based in East Anglia- it’s our first very wanted baby and I’m excited though nervous. Will request to join the WhatsApp, too!
