:wave: and congratulations to everyone! i'm 37 and have got my first ever bfp after my first round of ivf/icsi thanks to me having low ovarian reserve. i've tested positive for 3 days now, so am accepting that it's not a fluke. i'm exactly 4 weeks, so very very early days too. i know it could all disappear so easily, so i've decided i'm just going to enjoy it for as long as it lasts. i've also got a step daughter who's 8 and step son who's 5, but they live with their mum most of the time. i've got to wait for my first beta until the 23rd and my edd is December 27th.

looking forward to getting to know all of you.

Hello ladies
I haven't posted on here for a while but nice to see so many others have joined me!
I had an early scan on tuesday at 7 weeks, the little monkey nut is measuring a few days less but I expected this as I ovulated on day 20 instead of 14-17. It was tiny but we saw the heartbeat nice and clear.
I am feeling very very sick and throwing up every morning. I am taking 50mg B6 every morning and evening and I think this helps a little. Lots of fizzy drinks to sip too. Boobs are totally killing in the evening or if I get cold?? My pants are getting tight too!
Here is my scan pic!!

What a wonderful scan pic toothfairy!!! It's all just so amazing!!!

hpmini - at the moment i'm getting loads of twinges and mini-cramps, i taste blood/metal at the back of my throat, i have a sense of smell that should belong to a superhero, i had to take a nap after lunch today i was so tired but that might have just been down to not sleeping too well last night & i feel mildy queasy from time to time but a soda cracker and some water so far seems to settle that. gosh! i didn't think i had many symptoms, but now that i've written them down...

hope everyone's doing ok so far

Thank you manuiti it was mad to see it. This little nut not even a full centimeter big with a clear as day beating heart flickering away. Congratulations on your BFP it sounds like you have worked really hard to get there. I think all the nausea is a good sign. Lots of hormones!

My boobs hurt a lot - I have always had big boobs but I feel (maybe it's in the mind) that they're bigger than they were!
I am often feeling nauseous but not yet actually been sick - I guess that will wait til a really inconvenient time!!
I do keep getting stitch like twingy pains and I was so tired last night!
I did have the metallic taste - quite early on actually.
Roll on 4th May - first midwife appointment to cement the feeling!
It's so hard people not knowing - as there's some things I am avoiding doing!

Hi all
This is my first post, I'm 36 and this is baby number 4, I have 2 older kids 12 & 10 and a little girl who's 3 in July, I've worked out I'm due around the 11th December, which would be fine except that everyone of my babies has been over due with the last 2 induced, totally worried about needing induction again as it'll be Christmas! Not a good time to be away from the other children,
Think I'm 6 + 4 at the mo and went to docs this week, just want they first scan to see the baby is actually there and I'm not imagining it!!!
The only pregnancy sign I have so far it tiredness but that could just be because I'm shattered all the time and nothing to do with pregnancy!!! Time will tell
Looking forward to making some friends who'll be due around the same time xx

Hi ladies, and congratulations to all of you
I'm 36 and have just discovered that I'm pregnant for the second time. I have a daughter who is just over a year old and I'm delighted (and of course a bit anxious) to be expecting a sibling for her My EDD according to when I started my last period is 27th December so there is potential for a Christmas or New Year baby.

My main symptoms so far is I'm knackered, have heavy, sore boobies and cramps and twinges. I too feel nauseous but without actually being sick as yet.

A slightly weirder symptom is drooling - yuk! A few times today and yesterday I've noticed some drool escape the corner of my mouth. Not a good look...
Anyway I wish all of you a happy and healthy 9 months and look forward to getting to know you better as we share our pregnancy experiences x

Hello All, I was previous in the June thread, due on June 12th. My husband and I terminated our pregnancy at just over 20 weeks due to the fact that severe spina bifida was detected at our 20 week u/s. Our precious daughter, Claire Olea was born on January 26th and we buried her on February 1st. My husband and I decided to try for another baby and after doing a pregnancy test this morning I was thrilled to get a BFP. I have never fallen pregnant easily, 1.5 years with our DD1, 10 months with our DS1 and 2 years with our beloved Claire. Considering I am now 39, I had prepared myself for the fact we might not conceive again so this is such a welcome surprise. DH and I are dearly hoping for a healthy baby around the new year, due 30th December.

Hi ladies,
this is my first time to this thread aswell. I am v tentatively looking forward to sharing my journey with u all. All your stories are different but all courageous and have given me courage. Just did test today and am 4+2, had chem pg last mth so am v nervous at the mo especially considering I was sure I was getting my AF. Am v crampy and have lower back pain and crabby form. Any of u have these symptoms?

Hi everyone! I'm Tara, currently just over 4 weeks pregnant. This is my 4th pregnancy, my son Ethan is 14, I had a stillbirth at 39 weeks in 1991 and MC at 4 weeks in 1999. We only stopped using condoms on our wedding night on March 3rd so we're over the moon that I've conceived so quickly (I turned 37 in January).
I'm feeling the nerves somewhat, been a bit achey/crampy and I had a little spotting on Thursday night but the 4th pg test I did today showed a VERY strong positive line so keeping fingers, toes and eyes crossed that our poppyseed is snuggled in tightly!

Much love to all the other mums expecting a December baby!

Hi,
This is my first visit to this section. I am 36 years old and we are pregnant with our first. This is my 3rd pregnancy since we got married in August 2011 - 2 very early miscarriages/chemicals. This time I have had hcg levels much higher than ever before - over 3000 at 4+6weeks.
I am now 5+3 and my EDD is 21st Dec (based on ovulation so I am sure after my scan they will alter it!) Because of my previous losses I am getting to have an early scan at 6+6 weeks and I can not wait. Still a bit anxious as I have been having the odd episode of light brown discharge in the past week. Fingers crossed for a healthy bean growing inside.

I'm just back from having my first beta, and now I've got to wait until 6pm tomorrow to get my results. It's like a cruel form of torture!!!
