No symptoms but decided to test 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hello. I’m 5 weeks 2 days and a bit worried as my clear blue digital is still only saying 2-3 weeks. Anyone else in the same boat and is this normal? 🥹🥹

Has anyone had one? I have one tomorrow but the letter says it can be 3 hours. I was wondering if it is actually 3 hours and why would it be that long 😕

Pretty sure I missed my peak with today being lighter gonna keep testing but guess we’ll find out! Anyone else get lighter then darker?

Have you had a massage when EBF? How were your boobs? I’m really needing a massage but worried about lying on my boobs. How many weeks pp were you?

I have an appointment tomorrow which is an ‘initial consultant review’ I think I’ve been referred because of how my last birth went but not exactly sure. Just wondering on anyone else’s experience and what to expect? Also how long did the appointment take?

10dpo promised myself I wouldn’t test early this month but then I really thought it was our month. BFN today at 10dpo I think it’s another month gone.

I found out I was pregnant on Friday when I was at the GP. She said I have to go online and book the aninatal etc, I've been through the nhs website and there no link to register etc. Isn't this something my GP should have done to refer me? I'm so confused. I'm nearly 8 weeks so aware my 12 weeks is very soon

Has anyone been through a pregnancy where they were diagnosed with gestational diabetes, but they didn't check blood sugars, ate healthy as possible still but just didn't check for any reason, could be financial or other reasons. How did it go? Is your baby healthy? I was diagnosed and I am eating healthy, not check...

Found out I was pregnant a few days ago. Haven’t told anyone( not even hubby) and I would like to wait until after first US (9/11) before I tell home anything, we will be traveling to see his parent and he’s a horrible liar lol. But I’ve been testing daily and my line progression is a bit worrisome wanted opinions o...

Is there something starting I'm 8dpo

Has anyone self referred to IAPT before? I’m currently pregnant with my second and struggling mentally. My midwife recommended I self refer to them. Just wondering if other people have found it useful and would recommend x

Is this my first line stealer? Is this really good news for the rainbow baby? I was getting worried because I wasnt feeling pregnant since yesterday due to the food aversions but hubby was saying I looked bigger this morning.

I am 4 days overdue now and have had people messaging me asking if baby is here for weeks now. Some message every single day and I am so so sick of it. I feel like it’s putting extra pressure on me and like why do they have a right to know? I won’t be messaging people when I am in labour and I sure as hell won’t be ...

So already had 9 rounds of clomid didn’t work and this is my first lot of letrozole due my period today so would assume it would be darker but I will obviously wait and continue to test… BUTTT I could really use other peoples eyes on this one!

My due date does not line up with the last time I had sex. How does that make sense?! Acording to my due date, the estimated conception date is 2-3 weeks AFTER I had sex. Dr is convinced that my due date is accurate based on three early ultrasounds. Make it make sense. 🙈

Does this line progression look ok? I don’t know, I’m just so worried that there is not much actually progressing.

I had it with my first born. How likely is it I am to have it now with my second? As I am pregnant again. Is it possible I could have a pregnancy without it ? Would anyone have any intel on this…

So I didn’t find out I was pregnant until I was already about 8 weeks. I told my GP straight away but I’m due to be 10 weeks on Sunday but haven’t heard from the midwives. Is there a way for me to contact the midwives directly? my GP surgery hasn’t been very helpful.

Welp, officially diagnosed. I cried. lol. Blood sugar was 211 for the test. 😔 going to see a specialist but for now I’ve started the diet that mainly consists of things that taste like cardboard. I’m so petrified it won’t go away after my son is born. Anyone else have it?
