TTC First Baby Thread 21

@hopeandpray1988 - congratulations on the scan, I’m so happy for you!
I’m not doing too badly thanks; mildly freaking out as my nausea has taken a step back but I’m trying to just forget about it as I’m still exhausted and have the worlds sorest boobs 😂

@LokiCat - it’ll be the car bill that’s making you feel sick, haha!
Pleased you’re doing well, and I was exactly the same with keeping testing! Soon enough you’ll be going symptom measuring neurotic like me (although I don’t wish it on you!) 😂 here was me thinking I’d be relaxed when we got our BFP, but instead I’m anxious to want to feel sick. I can’t explain myself!

@Lottiepink it means I don't feel so guilty about having the odd treat, plus I would never be able to go at any other time than lunch. I am pretty hungry now so looking forward to heading off.

@Anny27 I has some drinks last week on Thursday and Friday....I'm like you in that I don't drink often but it was a special event with friends plus it would be so early that the placenta won't be doing anything and baby would be feeding off the yolk sac so I wouldn't worry too much but obviously listen to your body and do what you feel is right!

@flossy12 I will be 36 on my next birthday!

@hopeandpray1988 I am so happy to see your scan and hear that you are doing well!

@LokiCat thats rubbish news about your car 🙁I know what you mean about the anxiety, I know that no matter what happens next time that I will be a nervous wreck! Just try and relax and enjoy these early stages. The roofer did come.......he wasn't sure exactly what the issue was but they have done a repair and just need to hope that its resolved, once they have confirmed that the issue is fixed then they will sort out the internal stuff!

Almost time for afternoon tea 😋

So pretty much everything stopped now bar a tiny bit of blood about 10am today so when do I test again? I'm thinking the negatives are probably accurate but you never know

@LokiCat not sure why it didn't tag you hun xx

@Jessikka I'm 7 weeks today and based on the scan I'm 6+6 so pretty accurate.
Yeah was lovely and so reassuring after the awful 2 week wait after my last early scan. Was feeling pretty hopeful as haven't had any other bad symptoms.. just very sore boobs, extremely tired (I'm napping all the time) and feeling a bit off (been sick once) but think I'd just over done it that day.
I'm going to stick around for a while if everyone doesn't mind as I'd love to see how everyone else is getting on 🙂 xx

Hi ladies! First time I've managed to sit down today. I had to take my car in because the air conditioning has completely gone, even though I only got it regassed last month.. they've said it needs new parts and could cost up to an eye watering £900!! 😩😩 fair to say it's been a pretty stressful morning!

@Lozzlepop thanks lovely. I'm trying not to worry and wish I could just enjoy it, but I just feel so anxious after last time! Hopefully this one will be different.
I hope the roofer managed to sort everything out yesterday? Enjoy today - I love an afternoon tea! Obsessed with clotted cream and scones 😂

@Anny27 well done on SMEP! I hope the TWW goes fast for you - have you got much planned to keep you distracted?

@DuchessofPemberley I'm so sorry to hear about your MMC. Be kind to yourself and take your time when starting to TTC again. Thinking of you xx

@ELW85 hey lovely, I'm okay thank you! Still major sore boobs but no other symptoms! I felt slightly nauseous after breakfast today but I think that's because I ate too much 😂
Waiting for Friday so I can do a CB digital (AF will be one day late then hopefully) and then I'll put the HPT away! How have you been feeling?

@Lottiepink I'm so sorry AF showed! Definitely enjoy your holiday and DTD when you can. Maybe leave testing for this cycle so you're able to relax? (I know that's easier said than done because I have done everything but relax whilst TTC..). If not, I hope the doctors can give some answers!

@MrsH497 I'm so sorry this cycle has been such a weird one. I hope the FRER gives positive news tomorrow. I hope you're okay? I'd say defo get on SMEP!

@hopeandpray1988 thanks lovely! So happy for you that the scan turned out great and little bean is fine and healthy. It must have been so exciting to see the heart beating - how wonderful! Xx

Right I need to actually do some work now, meant to be working from home but this car palava completely threw me!! Have a great day ladies 💕

Thankyou @hopeandpray1998. Ooh exciting how many weeks are you?

Hi guys.
Sorry I've not been on the past 2 weeks. Was trying to relax as much as possible and not get stressed about everything. Been for my second scan at the epu today and baby is fine. Had no more bleeding, just a little cramping. Saw the heart beating and was given a few copies of the scan. Can relax now and know everything is ok. DH was extremely smiley and relieved - as am I!
How are you getting on @ELW85?
I see congrats are needed for @LokiCat and @Jessikka - baby dust to both of you!!
How's everyone else getting on? Anyone due to test soon? Xx

@ELW85 thanks :D yep lets hope that SMEP worked for me this month 🤞

@MrsH497 wow deffo test again in a few days just to make sure. So sorry your body is confusing you xc

@Lottiepink ahh gutting AF is here! But good news that you can have a fun relaxed holiday:D i would maybe temp so that you know when you have ovulated so that you know when next AF is due but other than that enjoy your holiday and relax and it might just work :D

What is everyones thoughts on drinking alcohol during the TWW? I am not a huge drinker so it would be one glass every so often.

Temp raised to post OV levels this morningn so officially 1dpo!

@MIW01 boo my mum had me when she was 36 so don't worry about it! ☺️☺️

@MrsH497 it must be weird cycle month! Mine was so weird too! Spotting for 5 days then crazy heavy bleeding for 2 days - where I couldn’t leave the house then it literally disappeared!

@Lottiepink yeah still weird very light this morning realistically it's probably a weird cycle x

I think so @MrsH497 if your spotting was implantation usually only get a super faint line at least a couple of days after x

@cupcakesandglitter do you think IC is just too early? I'm technically 15dpo and af would be due today xx

@DuchessofPemberley I am so so sorry to hear that, I hope you're doing okay ❤️ xx

Sorry to hear of your loss @DuchessofPemberley

And really sorry your body is playing such havoc with you @MrsH497 have you tested yet? Sorry if I missed a message saying you had. Maybe worth giving it a go if AF is due.

@flossy12 that really sucks for you! But at 25 you're still a spring chicken! I'm 34 next month so the clock is ticking . . .

So my temp has climbed back up to 36.1. I'm getting weird cramps, mood swings, severe fatigue etc. I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be implantation or is my body also playing havoc?! I'm now 7DPO according to the App but I got ovulation pains on CD13 which would make me 10DPO

Fingers crossed with the FRER @MrsH497 xx

@cupcakesandglitter currently back to not much and negative IC this morning - waiting for frer to arrive from Amazon

@Lozzlepop SMEP will be tried then!!!

Morning lovelies,

Midweek at last 🙌🏻

@flossy12 sorry I missed your reply yesterday, that deffo has some bunny boiler vibes written all over it! I would deffo loose it if I was in that situation!

@MrsH497 sorry to hear AF is messing you around this month.....how are you feeling today?I would say deffo get on the SMEP bandwagon for next month!!

I am finishing up a little early today and going for afternoon tea with a friend so roll on 3:30!! Hope everyone has a great day!

@MrsH497 any update today? Is it definitely AF? X

@Anny27 tell me about it! Ahh I'll just have to try my best to ignore her 🥴

@ELW85 after crying in the toilet at work I'm actually ok! I'm gutted we are onto cycle 10 and obviously still have a glimmer of hope - I'll do a test on Friday and see what that shows. I don't get this cycle at all but I do agree @Anny27 our bodies test us as soon as we start TTC!

After it got a bit heavier for all of 5 minutes it went back to lighter.

Do we give SMEP a proper try next month??!

@MrsH497 - how are you feeling? Sorry this cycle has been so crazy for you.

@DuchessofPemberley - so sorry for your loss, that’s awful. As the ladies have said, be kind to yourself.

@Anny27 - congrats on the SMEP 😂 everything crossed for you!

@LokiCat - how you feeling?

I’m in from a day travelling with work so going to bed! I hope you’ve all had a lovely Tuesday 😊

@Lottiepink ahh hoping that you get your well deserved BFP soon 🤞🤞🤞

@flossy12 double kick in the teeth with her being younger! If it makes you feel better you are two years younger than me so definitlet not old haha!

@MrsH497 sorry that af potentially got you! i swear our bodies know we are ttc and do random out of the ordinary things to keep us on our toes :(

@duchessofpemberley so sorry about your MMC and also sorry to have to welcome you back to the ttc group xxx

My OPKs started to get lighter today which means i have ovulated. 3 days in a tow of DTD wasnt tooooo bad but definitley wasnt easy haha!

On to the two week wait!
