Hi everyone,

I'm Maya, 30 years old, and I've known for two days that I'm pregnant with our first baby. I'm currently in week 5. It took 4 rounds to get pregnant, so I'm really happy about that. I've had a bit of a cold since yesterday, so things are a bit less fun right now... As for pregnancy symptoms, fortunately, it's not too bad. Less appetite and a little nausea, but if it stays like this, I certainly won't complain. I'm quite afraid of getting very nauseous, so I really hope that doesn't happen...

Also, some cramps, feeling more tired, and often dizzy, but those are things I don't mind at all.

Who else is around 5 weeks? It would be nice to share experiences together!

    I had an appointment this morning with the OB-GYN to remove some polyps and get an ultrasound, since we’d been trying for a baby for a long time. Turns out the "polyps" were from a very early miscarriage, and guess what? I’m already 12 weeks pregnant!!!!! I’m over the moon, of course, but now I’m wondering: how come I’m not showing any pregnancy symptoms? I’m not nauseous at all, just a bit tired, and I’m going to the bathroom more often. Has anyone else experienced this? Again, I’m really happy about the pregnancy—it was unexpected, but still—I’m also a bit worried, given my weight and my age (I’m 38).

    Hi ladies,
    I've had the feeling of being pregnant for a week and couldn't wait until last night to finally take a test.
    I had that little feeling of "Oh, it's probably not positive anyway."

    But inside, it felt different.

    I took the test and looked at it right away, and what did I see? No, that can't be so fast, a line within 10 seconds.

    I put it aside for a moment, and a minute later, the pink had faded, and yes, there it was. The line!!!

    This morning I took another one with morning urine, and yes, really a line.
    You're probably thinking, two tests aren't necessary.
    I'd want to take one every hour. I was too scared last night. This is because I had a miscarriage in January 2014 (4 weeks) and in May 2014 (6 weeks).

    But I didn't test so early and so positive back then.

    I would be 4 weeks today so I'm being very careful but still happy.
    In 3.5 weeks, I can call the midwife for an appointment
    I hope everything goes well this time.

    I'm looking forward to hearing your stories and experiences in the coming months.

    Hi everyone,

    I took a test yesterday and it's positive!
    I didn't test really early because I totally wasn't expecting a pregnancy at all.
    I only stopped the pill 1 month ago, so I haven't even had a 'normal' period yet.
    Of course I'm so happy, but it also feels quite unreal.
    Next Saturday I would be 5 weeks. Exciting, everyone.

    And Alice, I'd also love to keep testing.
    Especially just to be sure, you know.
    I took another test this morning with morning urine.

    I'm curious to hear your stories!!
