I got my BFP yesterday at 13dpo & worked out that I will be due around the 23rd of December too :D. I can't believe it, I've got pregnant on my first proper cycle after stopping the contraceptive pill. I'm praying everything is ok & baby is nice & healthy. Going to book an app with my GP tomorrow.
Is this your first baby?

Congratulations!
Hope all goes well with doctor visit! Its so exciting, I want to tell everyone but know I have to wait til after 12 week scan! Hoping to book for an early scan privately at around 8 weeks. Was nearly 14 weeks when I had my first scan with #1 & don't think I could wait that long again!! Was stressed out the whole time til I saw that heart beating!

yes, very exciting time, yeah strange enough it doesn't really seem real till you have been to your first scan, we're suspecting i'm carrying twins as i'm only 4-5 weeks and I look about 4 months pregnant lol so the doc says she'll try and rush me through to get a scan xx

Oh wow!! I hope you find out if there are 2 in there soon, how fantastic would that be?! Fingers crossed :D
You are right, I don't think it sinks in until you see 'it' on the screen. I'm quite worried about giving birth again (I know its a very long way off yet!) but I hemorrhaged & had 3rd degree tears with my first :( debating whether or not to elect for a c-section this time around. Have you had a section with any of your children? I'm already stressing out about having to go through that whole ordeal all over again. I don't want it to ruin my whole pregnancy.

Are they as bad as people say they are?
I started to show fairly quickly with my first, by about 10 weeks I had a proper little bump. I've still got a jelly belly so hopefully no one will notice as soon this time around!
Sounds like there could be two if you are showing already!! :)

Sorry for late reply, haven't logged on in a while!
I went to my midwife for a booking app & she said that she wanted to send me off for an early scan with falling pregnant so soon after coming off the pill. I went to hospital the next day but I was only about 4weeks 4days, so naturally it was too small to show up on an ultrasound. They took some blood to do a hormone count which came back at a normal level for around 4/5 weeks pregnant. Went back a couple of days later to have them done again to make sure they were rising properly, they too came back normal :) was such a relief! I've got to go back for another scan on the 3rd May so we will hopefully see a little heartbeat this time.
Have you had anymore indications as to how many babies are in there?

aww glad everything seems ok so far, fingers crossed for sticky babies. well I went to the walk in centre on sat as was getting pains and I had two docs examine me saying I shouldn't have a bump at my stage of pregnancy. i'm at the midwife today so I've got to tell her I need a scan asap (doctors orders) lol. well I've been feeling movement for the past week or so and still a big belly lol, so hopefully I get a scan this week or early next week, so excited to see how many is in there lol xx
