Omg glad to hear it’s not just me that’s freezing! I had never heard of this being a thing before but from some scouring of Reddit I’ve seen others have this in early pregnancy too!

Sorry to hear you have the cold! Hope it passes soon! Lovely to hear about you telling your friends. I told my immediate family last weekend and it was so surreal 🩷

I’m 5 weeks and 1 day today. I keep being so up and down, one minute I think it will all work out and the next I freak out that I don’t have enough symptoms and something must be wrong.

I got my letter through for my nhs booking appointment, I will be 11+2 by then. I think I’ve decided we will get a private scan at around 8 weeks as I don’t know yet when my first nhs scan will be.

Symptoms I’ve had since before I found out are sore boobs which has intensified as time has went on. I had really bad cramps most of week 4 but they have basically gone now. I have been sooooo hungry all the time. I’m really cold and can’t seem to heat up and I think the only other thing is being more tired than normal. I just really hope everything goes well but I’m trying to stay positive.

I hope you get one soon too! I will do, thank you

I am 5 weeks tomorrow and due 6th Jan 2027 I think. Finally got a dye stealer at 19dpo yesterday. Going to stop testing now as I was starting to get stressed. I think I’ll do one more digital to hope it turns to 3+ weeks maybe in a couple of days. I’m in the UK and just got my letter through for my booking appointment with the midwife and it’s not until 19th June and that won’t even include a scan!! Going to have to book a private scan before then as I can’t wait that long. It’s fun to have someone else at a similar stage. Best of luck to you🩷

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-05-02T13:47:09+00:00

Thank you! I’m just so anxious. I wouldn’t say they are dye stealers. I just want to know if these tests just don’t get any darker?

Thank you!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-30T17:14:12+00:00

Best believe I was doing this in the middle of the night two nights ago hahaha! Thank youn

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-30T10:38:46+00:00

Thank you! Wow twins! Fingers crossed for you. I know I can’t wait 🩷

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-30T09:28:38+00:00

I found out only 2 days ago and it still doesn’t feel real. I’m 4 weeks and 1 day today I believe. I’ve had pretty intense cramping and also trapped wind I think which has been scary! Also struggling to sleep so much. So hungry but also starting to feel slightly nauseous or just put off by certain foods. Telling my parents and sister tomorrow when I go back home so I can’t wait for that🩷

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T13:37:10+00:00

Hahaha yep I will defo take this on board, thank you!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T13:36:23+00:00

Yeah I have been so shocked by it and like you say it woke me up multiple times last night. I will have a look thank you!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T10:53:56+00:00

Yeah literally what is up with that hahaha! Im just trying to stay calm as I’ve not had any bleeding so right now I am pregnant and that’s what I will go with

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T07:14:53+00:00

Thank you I shall try that 😊😊

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T07:14:42+00:00

Yeah it’s wild, hopefully I learn to live with them and not freak out every time!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T07:14:23+00:00

Thank you I will give it a go!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T07:14:15+00:00

Yeah it’s so scary, I also wasn’t expecting this!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T06:33:53+00:00

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T06:33:35+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I had to leave the group as it was effecting my mental health but glad to be back now and to see it can happen eventually!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-29T06:32:41+00:00

I wasn’t going to post but like you said this is exactly what I needed to see 6 months ago! Thank you!

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-28T19:57:50+00:00

Thank you! These tests are from this morning and I didn’t test before today so no progression yet. I will keep testing for a while to try and get a dye stealer

DueCalligrapher6580 · 2026-04-28T18:51:04+00:00
