Getting Ready For Baby Challenge Thread 5

jupiter i really hope no symptoms is a symptom for you! I really want it to be your month, you deserve it!! For me symptom spotting at potentially 0dpo is a very bad sign of things to come 😂 I think my BFP date will be around 24/25th... mothers day weekend... could be a good omen!!

seven AMAZING diet efforts! Love that skinny feeling! When you next update can you reluctantly up my age to 34 crawls into a corner and sobs

Yay Tigger that is so wonderful! Thrilled for you :) xx must have been the most amazing feeling to see the little heartbeat on the screen. Confused am sure yours will be just as perfect - is it on Monday? Will be thinking of you.

seven so glad silly AF finished and no spotting this time. Well done on the super diet too, go you! Bet you're feeling all skinny.

Hb ditto on the womb awareness but mine is because I'm focusing so much on it. What's your BFP date?

Grumpy your weekend sounds amazing! I'm off to the countryside too to see a friend and then to visit my other friends new baby again as can't get enough of her.

8DPO here and basically symptomless.. boobs have even stopped hurting. Still quite windy though to be fair so maybe that's good. Roll on Tuesday.

Fantastic news Tigger How lovely to hear the heart beat so early x x

Tigger that's fantastic! Hugs 🤗

Tigger that's lovely, so happy for you.

I'm feeling a little better now and think I'm over my wobble and have decided to carry on ttc. Thank you for all your replies

That's great news tigger!! SOO happy for you xx

OMFG Tigger I am so bloody happy for you!!...

i'm now very scared for my scan on Monday

Great news Tigger!!

Grumpy it's strange for me to hear you say 'going to the countryside for a break from London', as i can't imagine a life where i wasn't out in the Countryside everyday

I have dropped my carb intake by half, but i couldn't cut it out completely, where do you get energy from for hard exercise if not from carbs?!

Wonderful news tigger!!

Little one (singular) measuring 6 weeks with a little heartbeat so relieved!!

Hi all, happy Friday! Good luck today tigger
I can't wait to hear about your scan xx

I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by work right now and it doesn't help I'm hungover today! We've had such a busy week and a big team night out last night. Bosses are going back to America today - phew!

Can't wait for the weekend, we are doing my daughter's birthday party tomorrow (my new PA sorted a cake! And is finding me a new cleaner. I could get used to this service!) and then going to my mum's in the countryside for a bit of a break from London. What's everyone else up to?

Seven* I need to do this diet! I did paleo for a month once and lost loads of weight, but it's so hard for me to break the carb habit. I think I just need to be really strict for a week and then the cravings aren't so bad. My willpower is terrible but I'm feeling quite overweight and unhealthy so really want to get back into good habits

Good Luck today Tigger hoping you have more pain because there are 2 little babies curled up inside you!!! I am sure you mentioned something about twins before!

Good luck tigger!

Good luck Tigger How very exciting!

I'm quite aware of my womb this morning, that either means something or is just bloody wind again

Hope you all have a good Friday xx

Good luck today Tigger

Hope you're all OK. I have no news except this week has been super busy. But since weird AF I've had no spotting or anything like last month.

So this diet were doing is boss. High fat, low carbs...I sneakily weighed myself yesterday because I felt so thin and I have dropped 4lbs since Sunday. And I haven't been hungry at all!! I'm not normally one for diets but this one is ace so far because you still get to eat cheese, cream, butter and your body runs off fat instead of carbs.

Good luck for your scan today tigger

I'm 3dpo today and trying to not think of symptom spotting... in laws here until Monday so that will help!

Really hope all is perfect Tigger. Nerves are definitely normal. Will be thinking of you!

Thanks lovelies I'm feeling very nervous

I'm excited for you today tigger! Hope all goes well x

God it's not just me! All my offal feels the same I think :)

Good luck Tigger can't wait for your update! X

And I will definitely be pillow-under-bumming just in case!

I used to bleed after sex so I had a biopsy taken of the cells just outside my cervix - had to have a transvaginal scan rather than the jelly stuff on my belly as they couldn't see it clearly to check everything over.
Apparently it doesn't affect chances of conceiving, just means more likely to get back pain and show later I think? My mum also has a tilted uterus and it didn't affect her (obviously!)
Anyway bleeding was just a reaction to the hormones in the pill changing the cells and getting aggravated by the prodding!! 😂 all stopped now that I'm not on the hormones!
