[Serenjay]

I think my earlier snooze has prevented me sleeping..im in bed with biscuits and so tired. im only able to eat bland food...cant face anything else..

Aliop, my scan is on the 18th. I'll be 7w5d.

 

[Newbie32]

i'm hoping something can be seen at my scan! It will be on the 18/19th also....i would be exactly 7 weeks or 7w1d by LMP....but i know when i ovulated and that will push me back to 6+5 or 6+6.....i know i will freak out if i cant see anything and have zero experience with these things as its will be first bubs!

Usually you can see the heart flutter after 6 weeks

Thank you tally! look at me being a miserable turnip; I'm just going to put it down to crappy tesco test.

 

[tallybee]

it's impossible not to dwell and fret isn't it, I've still got two superdrug tests and a CB digi but I'm resisting peeing on them. Been fighting with myself over the digi lol.

Can I join you ladies? I got a faint bfp today on a superdrug test. (Pics are in gallery).

Due date I'm not so sure. I had a period roughly the 23rd December but I got my implant out on Jan 8th. On the implant I only had a period every three months. Considering we only TTC for 25 days before getting a bfp this morning I halved that for rough conception date and got a very rough due date of October 15th. Prepared to give or take a week or so later on.

I've had crazy symptoms for over a fortnight and today have a metallic taste in my mouth. I've heard that can be pregnancy related? Never had that with the girls.

Hope everyone is doing well xx

Hi! :wave: welcome to the group, congrats! Never had the metallic taste myself but have heard of it being a pregnancy thing.

Well ladies after my cramping yesterday, seriously could've sworn af was coming. Then up early with my LO and started spotting.

This doesn't necessarily mean you're out hun! There's a thread in 1st tri (I think) where lots of ladies saying they've had spotting and baby has been fine xx fingers crossed for you.

 

[allforthegirl]

Not feeling very confident since my tests aren't getting any darker. Doing a lot of praying to my Angels this morning

 

[Natasha2605]

Fingers crossed for you xx

 

[GingerPanda]

Welcome, Natasha!


AFTG, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything is okay, and it's just a bit of normal spotting.

really sorry.. i hope everything is okay xx

I keep going back and checking....nothing. I'm praying my little big was just digging in deep. But it is the type that you'd get just before af. But only with one wipe. Normally wih af it has residuel. I'm still cramping lightly, so that is a bit unnerving.

Allforthegirl, I hope everything is OK. That does sound very unnerving and worrisome. We are here for you.

I've been having cramping too in the middle of the night and this morning. Hopefully, the little one is just holding on really tight.

Wow, so many posts since I last posted. You ladies are busy. Ginger - I really like your scan countdown. I'm going to copy you--

Hello ladies,

I found out last week that we are pg with #3. We have two lovely daughters already and are very excited about our new addition.

We're due Wednesday 7th October.

I love your daughter's names. Charlotte is one of my all time favs.

October 5th we are due with our fourth! Going to read back through and catch up 😃

Welcome. Don't worry. I have to catch up if I'm away for more than an hour. hahahah

People keep mentioning twins...is it because there are twins in family? am I at more of a chance of twins as I am a Dinosaur?

You're not a dinosaur! Where I'm from 27 (my age) is late to have your first. I'm glad Ginger was born in '89. I'm not the youngest.

What are people's symptoms? I am just having aversions to food and really tired.. I wanted to fall asleep at lunchtime in work today..I almost went out to my car to sleep for the 30 mins. I got home 4.45pm and asleep by 5.15pm and awake 8pm oops.. and now its 11.30pm I need more sleep again... yawns Slight soreness on sides of boobs, they were really sore now they are not (trying not to worry)

Serenjay. I had those same symptoms, but they've gone away. Now, it's just really huge boobs, sensitive nipples, irritable, and pelvic cramps -- somewhere along the lines of AF but not consistent. Don't worry about the boob soreness going away. I'm pretty sure that's natural.

AFM I haven't taken a test in almost a week. Maybe I should? I figured the cramps can't be bad unless there's ALOT of blood and there isn't.
