Hi guys i really cautiously join here but i do need some advice!!
i found out im probably pregnant sunday and its v v early days and im in shock!! total disbelief and shock. we have been ttc for 19 months, this was the 19th cycle
i went out sunday and bought a general multivitamin for pregnancy that has omega 3 in..
i also wondered how normal is it to get on / off cramps, i can be sitting normally like now no issues then suddenly its a oh now that one hurts and tho in some ways it does feel different in other ways its like im about to bleed pain! how normal is this?
I couldnt sleep last night for keeping thinking that when i go loo in morning ill be bleeding so i am genuinely knax now - i dont wanna be so anxious!
Also i dont really have any symptoms, its like make me feel pregnant please.. all i have is hot flushes. lol, so its like 20 outside and i would normally find this lovely but i feel like its 25+ my face , head is pretty much always feeling hot.
i dont have sore boobs, i havent been sick, i am getting cramps and i do have a wet'ish feeling which doesnt go down too well with me cause i get this with af as well!!

ill be due around 22nd but please dont put me on here yet - just not ready for that - seems to good to be true as its also pretty darn close to my birthday!

Hi everyone
Cautiously adding my EDD as 14th March. Had my BFP a week ago but can’t get excited. We’ve been TTC for just over a year, pregnant once but MC at 9 weeks. I’m in the UK so no scan until 11-13 weeks (currently 5w2d). I have very sore boobs and a lot of nausea to the point where I’m off work - not sure if I just have a cold (or just anxious!) as very stuffed up and didn’t sleep at last night. I want to be more excited but for now I’m just watching and waiting!!!xxxx

once the doctors have agreed everythings fine im defo doing a app for a week by week update thing!!!
are you going to the doctors?
im nervous (again) because during fertility testing i got told my progesterone was low. as in i wasnt ovulating (but i was).. so i do have a concern my progesterone isnt up to much which is also why im going so i can perhaps be given something for that

Hi, so i went to the doctors and got a midwife appointment arranged! not till im 8 weeks tho!

my blood pressure is apparently thru the roof so i have bought a home monitor and will report back cause at home ill be less stressed but i said to her my stress and anxiety is v v high. Worst case ill need meds for it :/ something ive never needed before! is this normal?

 

[Niknaknoo]

I would expect your bp to rise slightly, but not excessively although I’m no expert. Good that’s you’ve got a monitor and can keep an eye on it. Hopefully you’ll settle into pregnancy and worry less so it’ll come down naturally.

Trust me i wouldnt worry about your blood pressure thats because you have stressed yourself out too much just get some relaxing music on its all the panic i promise you anxiety is the worst and for now take the positive the doc wasnt concerned about u and rushed you to hospital they sent you home if it was major you would have gone to a&e trust me you will get through this do whatever it is you need to relax please for your own sanity take it easy and for the little one and if you need meds its not all bad i take anxiety tablets and im here with you please get some rest from your own mind i know its hard because i torture myself too xx

Ill see what home blood pressure is, i never really had issues before so it worries me - i dont care about me and my health but i do care about impacts i put on baby you know?
