Hi wondering if anyone is around 9dpo and wants to join me for the agonising wait? I'm trying to hold off from testing until at least 12dpo but it's so hard! I've never obsessed over something so much and I'm only on my 2nd cycle Sad

Gah, what a pain, why do they make everything so difficult? My appointment letter says arrangements for the scan will be made at the booking in appointment (but definitely not the same day) so I will not be leaving without a scan date believe me Grin

Good to have some distractions, @squ1ggle then hopefully you will be feeling much improved over Christmas and can put your feet up a bit. That's poor about the late booking appointment. Mine went well but the midwife at that one didn't arrange my 12w scan. Ended up getting one after ringing at least ten different people at the doc, hospital, who kept passing me on and telling me different things. Ended up being seen just a couple of days short of the cut off for screening. So do push if you don't hear anything.

Thank you @Blitzen, I've been doing ok, still nauseous but work has been crazy and it's ds's birthday next week so have plenty to do to keep the days ticking over. Got my booking in appointment for the 17th when I'll be 11 weeks which seems very late to me and no chance of scan before Christmas so we've booked a private one for tomorrow lunchtime so that we can hopefully relax a bit over Christmas. Excited and terrified all at the same time

blitzen · 06/12/2018 20:48

Thank you for the sympathy, @lavender, @thethree and @dreamin ! Glad to report I am a lot better now and I have had a good week so far. I don't seem to have any nausea at all now although my appetite has been smaller than usual. We finally told our family, friends and colleagues. I hate fuss and attention so was freaking out a little but everyone has been so supportive. Think it feels like a weight off my mind actually.

@squ1ggle, it sounds like you are being put through the wringer. Hang on in there and keep your chin up. I hope it will pass soon.

@emsi congratulations! So sorry to hear about your pet (still not over losing my cat which was several years ago now) but it is so lovely that you have your bfp.

Hope everything is well xx

Thethreeandme · 05/12/2018 21:16

@lavenderlove how are you getting on? Xx

Squ1ggle · 04/12/2018 12:12

Ah lovely @Thethreeandme, congratulations

Thethreeandme · 04/12/2018 11:25

@Emsi00 thank you, I'm jist baffled by the dates lol xx

Emsi00 · 04/12/2018 10:53

Congratulations! 💜 @Thethreeandme

Thethreeandme · 04/12/2018 10:45

Ok, so here's a weird one ladies, I just went for another scan, I'm only measuring 5 weeks now! So in essence I ovulate and conceived around the 9th 10th of November, when I had my lletz appointment, hense negative test at the hospital, which would also mean I tested positive at 6dpo!!!! I'm amazed I didn't even think it was possible, I'm booked in for another scan on the 18th. Hope everyone else is feeling ok xx

Emsi00 · 03/12/2018 19:31

Thank you, congratulations too! I felt like mine was a boy last time and this time, my mums like all those names are for a boy what if it's a girl I'm like nope 😂 @dreaminofholidays

dreaminofholidays · 02/12/2018 23:06

@emsi00 congratulations! so very sorry to hear about your pet.

@thethreeandme sorry the exhaustion has hit. My friend and I were talking the other day and she really summed it up by saying you just can't even describe how it feels! So grateful that has lifted now and my energy levels are back much more where they used to be. Morning sickness is however still present, 16+2 today!

@lavenderlove glad to hear your DH is able to reduce his medicine for TTC. Have everything crossed for you and fingers crossed the next two weeks fly by.

@blitzen sorry you've had such a rough time. Are you feeling better? Is the other stuff calming down? Have you decided when you may tell people?

I had a well being scan today. Turns out I have an antisocial baby in there. First he was lying on his tummy so the sonographer wiggled my tummy and the wand to get him to turn. Baby decided to put his back to us and just stay there for the appointment. We got to hear the heartbeat a little (then he moved again). Was pretty amazing. We aren't going to find out but I just have a feeling I'm having a boy.

xx xx

Thethreeandme · 01/12/2018 13:16

Omg, 7 weeks has hit and I'm beyoooooond exhausted, I yawn from morning to night, the urge to go for a wee is constant and I swear I'm getting Braxton type tightening although they obv don't make my stomach go hard I can just feel it inside?? Is that even possible on child number 4 xx

Emsi00 · 01/12/2018 09:52

Thank you, such a surprise honestly did not expect it xx @lavenderlove

Thank you, yeah it's so sad but was so shocked had so many mixed emotions wasn't how I expected it to be when I got a BFP 😂x @Squ1ggle

Squ1ggle · 01/12/2018 07:49

@Emsi00 sorry, I assumed dog x

Squ1ggle · 01/12/2018 07:48

@blitzen thank you for thinking of me. I'm definitely suffering worse nausea this time than with ds but I've had a tough few weeks anyway with one thing and another so that probably hasn't helped. Things slightly more back to normal now and dh is back from a week away so he's taken over and I can finally rest a bit. He's just gone out to buy me pastries for breakfast bless him! Hoping that this will all pass in the next few weeks and I'm feeling better by Christmas. Thought I had my booking in appointment this week but turns out it was just a referral to get a bloody booking in appointment so feel a bit like I'm not getting anywhere at the moment and still no idea of when scan will be (I'm 8+5 today) but it'll all come in time, I know that.

@Emsi00 I'm so sorry about your dog, it really is a proper bereavement so your mind is bound to be all over the place but what wonderful news on an otherwise awful day for you, congratulations!

lavenderlove · 30/11/2018 21:00

Congrats @Emsi00 !! So sorry about your pet but glad you got some happy news today too x

Thethreeandme · 30/11/2018 17:03

Omg that's amazing congratulations, wjat a strong dark line!!!!!!

Emsi00 · 30/11/2018 16:37

Had a awful week and today had my pet put down an hour ago and thought I'm going to test early even tho I feel as if AF is round the corner and had a massive cry and this happened xx

Anyone around 9 dpo?
lavenderlove · 29/11/2018 20:35

Hi @blitzen nice to hear from you. oh no how awful! Hope the food poisoning has passed now but I bet it's wiped you out, bless you. When are you planning to share your news? You've done well I don't think I'll be able to keep my mouth shut when I get my bfp😂

I'm ok thanks. Its ovulation day today (I think) then I'm going away on Monday so hoping it will take my mind off the dreaded TWW. And thanks, dh having a rough day today but he's happy to power through and come off the meds if it helps to get me preg! Lol.

Thethreeandme · 29/11/2018 18:01

Hi @blitzen that's so awful you've had food poisoning you poor soul, first scan wasn't fantastic but have another on Tuesday xx

blitzen · 29/11/2018 14:58

Hi all, hope you are well. Today I am 15+6. Had a rough week with a bout of food poisoning on Monday and just trying to pull myself together. A bit down in the dumps but okay. Still not shared my news with family and friends! Just popped in to see how everyone's doing and nice to see so many new people on this lovely thread. Good luck to you all.

How are you feeling today @lavender? Sorry I have no advice re bbt despite trying it and not getting a pattern. I read somewhere you have to do it when you wake up but still in bed. I may be wrong. Hope your oh is okay. X

@thethree hope your early scan went well! X

@squ1ggle hope you are not suffering too much with the nausea. Think mine has properly passed now although still have odd aversions to things. X

lavenderlove · 29/11/2018 10:11

Does anyone do BBT charting? I just started it this month and I'm not sure what's going on! X

lavenderlove · 29/11/2018 10:10

Thanks @Emsi00 hope you get yours too 🤞🏼 x

I know @Thethreeandme and I think I spoke to soon. He's being a right moody b*stard now 😂 think I'm going to be needing a dose of them soon! Lol. and Oh god at least your partner understands it's the hormones bless him 😂You've got a good excuse as well x
