Hi - got mine around 21w. As long as you’ve had your 20w scan your midwife or hospital should be able to give you one

Did they give it to you or did you get it posted?

I’m getting mine next week at a midwife appointment. She told me normally they give it to you at the 25 week appointment, but I’m getting it early (at 23 weeks) because I have an extra appointment to assess if I’m fit to fly

I keep forgetting to ask for mine 🤣 have all the intentions of asking at the appointment but always forget. My next midwife appt is 3rd April 🤣 hoping I’ll remember then!!

I was originally told I’d get it at my 20 week scan but I only got it yesterday at the midwife appointment that follows up from the scan, I’m 23 weeks tomorrow but I think it’s normal to get it between 20&25 weeks xxx

I haven't got mine yet I'll have to try and remember to ask for it at my 28 week appointment as my boss is asking for it.

I needed mine for work earlier than when my appointment is scheduled. Got it at 21 weeks. You can just call up your doctors/midwife and they'll sort it for you early. As long as its after your 20 week scan x

Avatar

I’m pretty sure you need to submit it 15 weeks before your due date. I’d call up and ask for one asap

oh yes I think you're right! Thank you

One and done… or not?

32ftm. I’m starting to feel so much pressure to have another baby soon as I wean from breastfeeding so they can be close in age and be friends, but I don’t feel ready for pregnancy and newborn trenches again 😭 my husband and I are all we’ve got. Having just one baby without a village has been really tough. Am I being unrealistic wanting another one soon?

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.

Tests

So I had a blood test at the drs bc I keep getting positive tests when the blood test was negative what could this mean? Hubby says the tests are negative and said he can’t see anything. Negative image down below.

Am I pregnant?

I lightly spotted almost 5 days ago, which is not common for me before my period.
My period was supposed to come today. I should have tested in the morning but its 5:30pm.
Is there a second line??

Anyone have this happen before?

We were not trying to conceive, used protection and had sex on week 2 of my cycle (accidentally on my peak ovulation day). Week 3 we had Flu A. Week 4 my period did not come (it’s very regular). I tested and it was negative (2 different brands).
What should have been week 2 of my next cycle (now 6 weeks post last period), I had light red/ pink spotting for one day when I wiped. The following week, I tested again, still negative, but this time almost all the dye was in the negative space, which I’ve never seen happen before. The area where it shows one horizontal line for negative and a plus sign for positive, the horizontal line was super faded at the 3 minute mark, and the negative vertical line in the next window was VERY dark. Now I’m on week 8 of all this, period did not show up yesterday. Nothing in my life has changed (no additional stress, no other illness, no changes in diet or exercise, etc).

Has anyone gone through this and NOT been pregnant? I’m super nervous as we thought we were done having kids.

PS. I know I should go get a blood test, does anyone know if urgent care will do that? I’m past being convinced by a pee test.
