Yup. I'm the same. 7-8 weeks and my booking appt is 1st August and 12w appt isn't until 12th August (was 9th but the rescheduled it due to staff shortages 🤦‍♀️) I've had an early scan at 5ish & 7 weeks due to a bleed. But I'm considering paying for a private scan just for reassurance.

Yeah mines the 5th but I thought they would have woman in quicker to make sure everything is as it should be? I might do private too. How are you feeling?x

@Maria I've had constant nausea and sore heavy boobs since about 5 weeks (using that as my positive) and some little aches and cramps here and there. But I can't say outwith that I feel pregnant. I do worry a lot as I've had 2 miscarriages before one at 7 weeks and my last at 15 weeks so I don't think I'll be able to stop worrying until after that stage. What about you ? Xx

Yes that's pretty normal. My booking appt for my first was around 10 weeks and my first scan was 13 weeks

@Kimberley Im the same boobs are heavy my nipples are on fire haha and I can’t get enough of ribena at the moment and mood swings and very emotional 😩. Ahh I’m sorry to hear that hun try and stay positive 💜

@Kirsty thank you hun I just feel bit lost at the moment x

@Maria my craving, or really the only thing I can stomach without feeling ill just now is sliced crispy potatoes 🤣 and the occasional full fat coke but I try and just have the 150ml cans to curb the craving 🤣 xx

@Maria it's a really weird time until you start having appointments! I've been through it all before and even I'm finding it strange at the moment 😊

My first appointment is next Friday, my dating scan is 21st August. I'm between 6.5-7.5 weeks xx

@Kimberley I know it’s awful I can’t stand the smell of certain foods 😩I’m the same with coke but it’s gotta be a can and ice cold 🙄😆xx

@Kirsty yeah I feel ya sorta left to yourself to figure it out till your appointments come through xx

@Maria exactly that! A nice ice cold coke
