Hi there,

Thought I would start this one, can't see one up yet. Very early!!

I'm due July 1st. Really scared. Had a miscarriage on my first pregnancy in April, trying to not get my hopes up so much this time because I got such a fright before.

Going to go for an early scan to put my mind at ease in 2-3 weeks. Fingers crossed everything goes okay.

Any more early birds around?

Bingwhoosh · 30-10-2015 12:30pm

Hi SettlePettal,

First of all congrats. I'm in nearly the same boat as yourself, I miscarried in March and found out on Saturday gone by (which was my due date) that I'm pregnant again.. yeeaaah due 4th July.

I'm excited but am pretty nervous as know it can all be taken away so quick.

Lets hope things work out for us both this time.

LegacyUser · 30-10-2015 10:51pm

Hi there. Just found out during the week I'm expecting again. Number 2 here. Have a two year old. Had miscarriage in August so fingers crossed all goes well this time!!

Mimi21 · 30-10-2015 11:05pm

And that makes three!!

Due on the 5th July (fingers crossed all going well). Had a miscarriage in August of this year so quite nervous this time around. This is number two. Already have a very busy two year old!!!

dori_dormer · 02-11-2015 8:11am

I'm preggers again too! Around July 7 th I think. Also had a miscarriage in August so fingers crossed for us all!

Calling my gynae today so will hopefully have an appointment at the end of the week for a scan. If it's another miscarriage I'll be going through loads of tests apparently.

Starting this pregnancy off in Germany, and will be back in Ireland in Feb

All of us in the same boat!

Bingwhoosh · 02-11-2015 11:32am

Congrats ladies, unbelievable that we have all have gone through the same.

I've a two year old as well, it was about 4 months on that pregnancy before I started to show but am popping out already on this one, put on my trousers this morning and couldn't close the button!

Its going to be hard to keep it hidden as I have a lot of perceptive family and friends!!

Mimi21 · 02-11-2015 12:55pm

I know what you mean on that Bingwhoosh. I'm having the same issue here. There is a definite bulge there!

Ciarrai76 · 02-11-2015 2:37pm

Hi,
I'm pregnant and due early July. We were trying for 6 1/2 years, with unexplained infertility. We did IUI in the end, and it worked first time! I'm almost 39 (will be next week!) and really hoping this sticks! I have never been pregnant, so its all very very new, scary and exciting!
Feeling really good so far, only going on 6 weeks, but no sickness to speak of. Very tired, but grand apart from that!

Having my blood tests done this week, then an early scan in a week or so and then I'll be let go from the care of the fertility clinic and onto the public service.

Best of luck to you all

dori_dormer · 02-11-2015 4:54pm

Ah my gnae is on holidays this week, so earliest appointment will be next week. Boo!

SettlePettal · 03-11-2015 11:03pm

Brilliant. Great to see everyone finding out this week.

I am jaw drop tired last few days and very sick too. Finding it hard in work, can' believe I'm this nauseous, waking up every morning with my stomach churning like a really bad hangover belly. Only thing that's working is eating dry crackers. Boyfriend waking up to me sitting at the end of the bed nibbling crackers at 4 in the morning!

Ciarrai76 · 03-11-2015 11:14pm

Very tired today, dragging myself around work! I had my first blood test this morning and have to go for another on Thursday.
I don't feel sick at all, yet, just very tired. I am wondering all the time what am I meant to be feeling like! lol

Cerocco · 04-11-2015 10:34am

Hi All, another newbe here. I did a home test last Thursday and got it confirmed by the Doc on Monday. I'm due 8th July. My husband can't get his head around it as we were only trying for under 2 months. I told him when he hears the heartbeat it will be very real. Have apt for scan on 23rd Dec so can tell family then. Totally wrecked by 9pm every night, didn't expect that so early and feeling neauseated all day but no puking thank god.

Best of luck everyone and here's to us :-)

bbudab · 04-11-2015 12:11pm

Hello, just found out last week, very early days, it's my first and i am terrified! Husband and i were only trying for about 2 weeks so it's a bit of a shock to the system.

Bingwhoosh · 04-11-2015 2:36pm

Went to my GP last night and got it confirmed, rang Rotunda this morning and fair play to them once I mentioned the miscarriage they booked me in early for my booking visit on 9th Dec which is at 10 weeks.

Saves paying for a private early scan as GP said there was no point going before 9/10 weeks anyway.

So far so good with the tiredness but then having a 2 year old I am constantly tired anyway!

I have a night away with the girls on Saturday so am going to have to go down the kidney infection/strong antibiotics route! I know they will all probably see straight through it but what else do you do as it is way too early to say anything.

dori_dormer · 04-11-2015 2:59pm

Awh yay there's a bunch of us! Thought morning sickness was starting on Monday but it went away after 24 hrs. ****ting it a bit because that's what happened with my last miscarriage - on and off sickness.

Wish my bloody gnae wasn't on holidays this week! Need my scan lol!

Cerocco · 04-11-2015 11:08pm

Is anyone else incredibly thirsty?

yes, I'm always thirsty! Drinking as much water as I can! My mouth feels dry and metallic all the time!

LegacyUser · 05-11-2015 8:09am

I tested positive last Thursday ! Delighted ! Going to doctor today to confirm . Anyway else having their symptoms come and go ? Have cramping last week ( felt like period was coming ) however nothing this week?? Hope everything ok - first pregnancy ! Due calculator saying I'm due July 1st !

sunlife44 · 05-11-2015 8:22am

On my first pregnancy I had cramping, think it was my uterus stretching!
My boobs are killing me, and also thirstiest than normal.

Mimi21 · 05-11-2015 9:15am

No real symptoms as yet although the tiredness is unreal at the minute. It's hard to get through the day at work. Was the same on my last pregnancy - no real symptoms except the tiredness. Cleared up after the first trimester so here's hoping for the same. Going to see GP next week and get myself into the system!!

bbudab · 05-11-2015 9:28am

I'm quite awake and alert in the morning and evening. But after I eat lunch I'm exhausted! The tiredness is unreal! Going to the doctor today

Cerocco · 05-11-2015 10:05am

Does anyone know if the sore boobs last the whole pregnancy or do they settle down? Mine are killing, it was actually due to this that I thought I was pregnant

Mine settled at around 15 weeks (20+4 now). They were in bits before that, but that was partly because they decided to get really huge really quickly.

dori_dormer · 05-11-2015 8:24pm

Yes my boobs got really sore and massive in the first trimester, then settled with the morning sickness. They sort of remained a bit sore though because I was about 2 sizes bigger, and not used to the weight!

Flutterby80 · 06-11-2015 1:14pm

Hi all ! Delighted to have found this thread, I'm due in early July and I'm in shock as I only came off of the pill in August. Just went to the doctor this morning and he confirmed that I'm definitely pregnant. I'm delighted but so nervous as its my first and I don't know what to expect .
One question, is anyone else having discharge? I've just noticed in the last hour that it's a kind of light brown colour, definitely not bloody but I'm just a bit worried, it was clear up to today so I didn't ask the doctor, sods law!

Ciarrai76 · 06-11-2015 2:52pm

My blood tests were confirmed today and I am certainly pregnant! Almost 6 weeks now

I'll be having an early scan with my clinic on Monday week, so I can't wait for that! Then I'll be off into the public system!

I felt my first bout of queasiness yesterday, nothing too bad, but I did feel off. Fine again today!

bbudab · 06-11-2015 5:23pm

Went to the doctor yesterday, everything looks good, still stupid early. Doctor dated it at 4 weeks and 5 days but i think it's more like 3 weeks and a few days.
I'm getting bad nausea throughout the day.
The hardest part is not telling anyone, especially in work, it's all i can think about right now!

dori_dormer · 06-11-2015 6:36pm

My husband told our landlady! Ahhh! The last time we told them I then had to tell them about the miscarriage. It was horrible having near strangers who live next door feel sorry for you.

This time only my mam knows, and my sister in law ( but that was cos I stupidly left the test out in the bathroom like an eejit!)

At least the 12 week mark is around xmas, will be nice to see all family and tell them together

Ciarrai76 · 07-11-2015 1:38pm

Is anyone else on progesterone? I've been on it 3 times a day since I did the IUI and will be for at least 2 more weeks. I am very itchy down below (sorry tmi!) and only after reading up on side affects did I find that itching can be one! Pity I didn't think to ask nurse this yesterday when she rang!

I will ring Monday as I want to find out if there is anything I can get to ease it. It's worse at night! Very annoying!

SettlePettal · 07-11-2015 7:46pm

I have been so sick last two weeks, sore boobs, headaches, really tired the lot! Woke up this morning feeling totally fine. I scoffed my breakfast and waited, nothing!

Last time this happened i ignored it as nothing but when i went for the ultrasound and had been told i lost the baby, the lady there said that doesn't happen. She said sickness weakens but if it's gone completely it's not good. Soooooo.... i got really worried. I booked in for one today.

Best 100 quid i ever spent, heartbeat good. Everything fine. I'm further along too, 7 weeks. Can't wait until Xmas when i can relax a bit when i'm over the 12 week mark.

This is my first, but apart from being tired, I've pretty much no nausea/sickness & my boobs aren't too sore. I keep wondering should I be feeling more symptoms!

dori_dormer · 07-11-2015 8:27pm

Every pregnancy is different! My friend on her 3rd child had no sickness until 10 weeks, she thought she got away with it lol! She's due xmas week.

I feel permanently nauseous. Not enough to actually get sick and get a little relief, but all day queasy. Only relief is when I'm eating, I'll blow up like a balloon!

Pablodreamsofnew · 07-11-2015 8:30pm

Hey everyone,

I'm in shock, i'm pregnant. We weren't trying. We already have one child. Haven't been to doctors yet. Still expecting my period to be honest. My last period was oct 5 so i'm 4 weeks something? Due early July.

dori_dormer · 07-11-2015 8:44pm

Congrats MrsY! It'll sink in eventually lol!

Cerocco · 08-11-2015 10:58am

Hi Ladies, When you refer to how far gone you are do you go by the first day of last period or when you ovulated? For me according to the doc I'm 5 and a half weeks but really I'm 3 and a half. My 12 week scan is really when I'm 10 weeks!

It's counted from date of your last period in all things medical because that is definite, date of ovulation/fertilisation/implantation is guesswork. You're counted as already 4 weeks pregnant by the time you find out at the earliest (like I did) roughly 2 weeks after ovulation. So you are 5.5 weeks and your scan is at 12 weeks gestation, not 10.

Pablodreamsofnew · 08-11-2015 10:25pm

Am i the only one with zero symptoms?:P

I spoke too soon, felt great up to now, but haven't felt very good today, woke feeling sick

Its hard to eat when you feel like being sick, my hubby is moaning at me for not eating much, but its really not easy! feel better tonight though!

bbudab · 09-11-2015 10:32am

Got a bit of a fright this morning as i had some light spotting, it stopped before i even noticed it had happened, still, scary.

This happened me on my first pregnancy about a week after I was due my period. It's scary when you see anything like that. Now have a hyper toddler ðŸ˜Š xx

Haha I'm on a diet and pretending I'm not.pregnant because the minute I accept it I'll start eating for five!

Bingwhoosh · 09-11-2015 11:15am

Nausea kicked in big time for me over the weekend, plus I had my night away with the girls on Saturday and got a migraine and ended up in bed for the night at 7! Silver lining was though that I didn't have to hide the fact that I wasn't drinking!

dori_dormer · 09-11-2015 11:47am

Had permanent nausea all weekend too. On the upside my gynae appointment is for Thursday afternoon! Nervous as hell!

spottybananas · 09-11-2015 11:52am

Ciarrai why is he moaning at you for not eating much, that's not helpful. You'd have to be eating a damn sight less than normal for it to be even the smallest problem, him moaning at you is so unnecessary, if youre nauseous its understandable to eat a bit less. It'll be a long 9 months if he's starting that already!

he's not being mean about it, just concerned! He doesn't want me not eating and something going wrong!

I went to work and had to pop to shop, so thought I'll get a cup of tea as I didn't feel like it this morning, then ended up getting a sausage roll too....soooo not like me! At least I can say its cravings, and he can't be moaning at me for not eating! haha!

That's exactly where i am. It's about a week after my period is due. It was a very, very small amount, still, feeling very delicate today.
