Due date? Will find out at dating scan. I have irregular cycles from 20-35 days so not able to use an online calculator exactly, but believe end of June, beginning of July. So I’ll be floating between this board & the July 22 board when it opens
How’d you find out? I’ve been tracking my cycle for the last year and noticed that for the first time since my last BFP I had uterine cramping mid cycle & I immediately thought it felt like potential implantation cramping. Fast forward a week or so and we’re due to go on a boozy afternoon so I thought I better test just to make sure (about day 23 of my cycle), and low and behold the faintest of blue lines appeared! I did about 6 more and they all had the same result!
Other children/pets? 2yo DD & 2 cats
Job? Reliability engineer in the mining industry
Things you like to do? 4wd, camping, exploring the world, boozy nights with friends (on hold now for the foreseeable future!), bingeing TV shows and sleep ins
Spouse/partner? My husband & I have been together for 3.5 years
First appointment? Unsure! I live in a small mining town and we often don’t have doctors up here so I’ll try to get an appointment on Friday for a blood test, if that fails I am flying to my state’s capital city at the beginning of November so I will book in for bloods & a scan while I’m there.
Any symptoms? Rotten nausea & awful fatigue. Very similar to last time!
Hi everyone! First time being pregnant here! I’m excited for this community and the journey ahead.

So I took a test a couple days ago and it came up positive right away! My doc knows I’m nervous and sent me for bloodwork and my beta was 938. I’ll go again in a couple days for another draw. I dont if that is a “good number” or not but I’m praying! Hoping this is my sticky baby
