Less than 12 weeks pregnant club! Part 4!!

So I did another CB digi test this morning and it's still showing 2-3 weeks and not 3+ like I thought Should I be worried?

Hey Clara. Don't panic - plenty of people have issues with them. I can't speak from experience as mine did seem to work - what do you think you are now...? And when did you get your original 2-3? I got my 3+ at 5+6 but I hadn't tested til then so don't know if I would have got it any sooner...

If you have no issues I'm sure all is fine :-)

I got 2-3 last Friday.

Going by when the acpuncturist thinks I would be 6+2 or by when I think 4+5. I'm getting myself so confused with these 2 sets of dates :rotfl:

cats2012

Hmmm ok so last fri you were either 5+3 or 3+5 (ish - my maths is probably off!!) but I wouldn't have expected a 2-3 if you were the latter (although it is of course possible!!) so my guess would be the former.

I would assume then that you're just someone for whom they are temperamental :-) either that or you are in fact 4+5 and the first one was just early.

If you get worried I would ask for a doctors app and get your levels tested, but if the exact data doesn't matter too much you're probably fine :-) don't panic!!

Thanks Cats,

I think last Friday I was either 5+3 or 4 weeks so I may just have been in the 2-3 (as I did get a 1-2 last Thursday but it was weak urine so thought that was how it changed). So maybe today was too early to test for 3+?

I really think my acupuncturist is wrong with the earlier date tbh. Last night she said that my scan booked for 9th Sept would be classed as a 12 week but it would be early. But if I go by her date I'd be over 12 weeks :rotfl:

I decided that last night was to be my last session - I haven't told her yet though! I can't justify the cost now, especially since my cash plan fund is maxed!

I'm not too worried yet, been mega tired and lot of trip to the loo this week and having some stretching like tummy pains so feel pretty pregnant xx

cats2012

That's good!! So if you go by that are you only just around 5 weeks now?

As for me I finally went back to the gym today after being super nervous since I found out. As someone who normally does exercise 4/5 days a week covering netball, circuits, yoga and running it's been pretty hard!! My friends have noticed too so I've been faking a knee injury so well that I actually sometimes forget it's only an excuse lol. Can't wait til 12 wks when I can actually tell my trainers and they can adjust sessions accordingly. Til then I just did a bit of cross trainer and treadmill without pushing it too much :-)

clarabell1984

Yes, I think I'm going to go with the later date so prob around 5 weeks. Have 1 more CB digi so may use that next week to see if I get my 3+

That's good that your able to get back to being active! I'm not an overly active person but I think people are going to start to notice me refusing the offer of wine! Not like me at all :rotfl:

Going to just have to try and stay away from everyone until scan! When is your scan Cats? Xx

cats2012

Early scan is next Tuesday when I'll be 8+1 by my dates or 9 wks by LMP. Havent got midwife appointments yet but I'm going to ask them to do those by my dates too otherwise my 12wk scan will end up being too early.

OH and I have agreed to tell absolutely no one until 12 wk scan so I'm already having to make so many excuses for not exercising and not going out! I'm sure some people will guess by then, I certainly have guessed with most of my friends!

clarabell1984

We have agreed not to tell anyone until after our scan as well (apart from my mum as she goes on holiday before we have it. But won't be telling her until the very last minute).

It's going to be hard, I'm not going to lie!

I hope I am a bit further one, don't really want my 12 wk scan at 11wks xxx

Feeling a bit more human today. My son kindly passed on a horrible cold at the start of the week, so added to the nausea and exhaustion I was already feeling, I haven't been up to much. We managed a trip to the park this afternoon, the sun came out and we had a nice time.

My husband has been dosing himself up with paracetamol and night nurse, yet still whinging about feeling rough. He's still alive, for now...
