New!

Heyyyy July. I know it's quiet still, but I'm super excited to be here. I got a really, really faint + on my test today. I was going to wait for various reasons (mainly because I have my guard up from losses) but decided to jump in head first. I'm 11dpo today and should be due around 7/1. I tested yesterday after having what I thought might be some symptoms and got a negative. Re-tried after temp jump today and the same symptoms. Line definitely there, but faint.

Looking forward to being here, hoping I get to stay and can't wait to meet you all.

Hey there! We are the same DPO! Hmmm I got my BFP Thursday! Shoot now I'm nervous it could be twins again! I already have awesome twin boys that will be 3 in a few months. I'm also nervous about it not progressing so we can help each monitor our symptoms!

Nah, I wouldn't chalk that up to twins based on that. It's possible you implanted earlier than me or something. Higher hcG (which might make your test show earlier) doesn't necessarily mean more than one baby

There will be ladies also due 7/1 that still won't get a positive for a bit, depends on several factors.

Congrats to you!

Thanks! I know that is one of many symptoms however, I had twins naturally so my chances increase 4x this time around. What other symptoms have you felt so far?! Is this your first pregnancy?

Nope, #4. I've had 2 previous miscarriages and a son born at 20 weeks. Hoping for a looooong pregnancy with take home baby.

Sore breasts/nipples is what led me to test. I really only get that when pregnant so was hoping that proved to true this time too! I have a crazy bad headache (I imagine hormonal related) and I have a lot of lower abdomen aches/twinges.
