TTC First Baby Thread 22

@validuser ahh still early days as you say :) will you continue taking the progesterone?

@Lemonysherbet congrats!

Hello everyone

Just thought I'd jump in to let those of you who don't already know this week is World Childless Week. There's a whole community out there if you google and search #worldchildlessweek I only just found out today through my work's women's network!

Been a bit absent due to holiday to Calofornia! Which unfortunately hasn't worked for TTC AF has been here since Monday!

Congratulations to those who have conceived and of course, commiserations to those who had an unwelcome AF once again. Please know there is a huge network of support out there for whatever your needs are!

@Anny27 it's gone, but I think it was just the trigger shot hanging out longer than usual.

I'll check again at the weekend. Still only 9-10 dpo!

@validuser has your line got any darker today lovely?

@Lemonysherbet oh wow I can definitely see that line- congrats! Keeping everything crossed for you 🤞🏼
@Lozzlepop yeah I know what you mean... will just have to wait another week I think for all the results. Arm is still bloody hurting with the hematoma... still can't lift properly and it's been a week!

Oh I had the hot flashes again, I had those last time! I even googled menopause symptoms at one point 😂😂😂 this tww malarky really does drive you loooooony

Yeah it gives you the excuse to mope about and rest haha! @lemonysherbet

I think i will still wait to test on saturday as i am having zero symptoms apart from the cramping on day 5 and then feeling hot and abit run down (but coupd just be getting ill!)

Super exciting for you both though 💚

@Anny27 are you going to stick to the original plan 😂 or test earlier?

I know I'm so glad I'm not imagining the nausea. I took it so I could tell myself to man up it's just a bug when it would show negative... Now at least I know it's ok to feel crap! It's completely different symptoms to last time too oddly! Boobs aren't very sore, last time they were agony and I had constant cramps. I've just got back ache, a stabby cramp in the left and nausea this time. It really does show that every time is different

@Kiza for me personally I would rather there would be something wrong that’s fixable, I think I would find it hard if they said it’s just one of those things.

@ValidUser I have everything crossed lovely, it’s still early 🤞🏻

@Lemonysherbet congratulations lovely what fantastic news! How are you feeling?

Thank you all, it really does mean a lot :) just showed DH. Were secretly excited but aren't going to get carried away until we pass last time!

@lemonysherbert these guys on here are great at being a second pair of eyes abd they seem pretty confident so a big day congratulations!

Ahhh congratulations @lemonysherbet !!! You werent imagining your symptoms 😊😊

Makes me want to test now haha

@Lemonysherbet - congratulations!

@Lemonysherbet that's wonderful! ❤️ Congratulations! X

Yes it should get darker as the days go on 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Sorry @validuser didn't see your comment. Too distracted and shaky to make sense of anything! I really hope this is your month, come on progesterone!!!

I'm so scared to be excited after last month. Do you reckon Saturday morning to test again? It should show up a bit darker by then right?

@lemonysherbet omg congrats, that is definitely positive 😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉

I got home and my tests were here. I have no willpower which is why I don't keep them in the house 😂 what do you think? I'm so scared to feel excited as we had an early MC last month. I've got another, might wait for Saturday morning to test.

Hello everyone! I think my recent BFPs were remnants of the trigger, but I'm still only 9dpo so not out yet!

How's everyone doing?

@Lozzlepop @Larrydavid thanks both, yeah the waiting is hard as I don't know which answer I'd prefer- that everything is fine with us or there's something not fine but at least then we may able to do something about it? 🤷🏼‍♀️ a weird in between feeling to have!

@ValidUser really hoping the progesterone works for you 🤞🏼

Hi ladies

@MrsH497 I think it is really hard to be excited after a loss, it’s only natural to want to be cautious but I’m sure that will pass. Will you book an early scan or wait for the 12 week scan?

@Anny27 oh how lovely congratulations, it is nice to take the pressure off sometimes and just enjoy being a couple again.

@Kiza that’s really good that you were seen so quickly! We’ve been told 6-8 weeks for a letter then a further 6-8 weeks for the appointment, that’s for the recurrent miscarriage clinic though so I’m not sure if things differ. Fingers crossed that you get your results soon and hopefully some answers 🤞🏻 The not knowing is the hardest bit.

@Whatnext11 congratulations lovely ☺️

@Larrydavid I’m almost disappointed to hear that 😂 can you not just sneak DH with you? Lol ooh yay to being able to enjoy the sushi though that’s a good plus!

Has everyone had a good Thursday? I feel like it’s been such a slow week I need to fast forward to the weekend already!

@ValidUser - congratulations! Keeping everything crossed for you that the progesterone does it’s job and everything sticks. I’m sure it will 😊

@Larrydavid - the wedding planning sounds like it’s gone really well! We had so much fun planning ours, so enjoy every second!

@whatnext11 - congratulations!
