Would you say the 3rd test down was my peak? Seems to be getting lighter top one was today. These were alot brighter irl. The picture of one on its own was the third test down before it dryed. How many more days should I DTD? And when would I class 1dpo? Thanks 😁

@Skl2021 There's nothing wrong with Blackpool! Love an arcade 😆
My little one would absolutely love it there no doubt. We went there when he was a baby but haven't been since. Haha nope, just a week away in a caravan by the sea!
Oh gosh I can imagine 😩 it must be horrible. It's raining and cold where I am though now so it's cooled down loads. Hopefully it's not too bad for you 🤞🏻 xx

@Skl2021 Yes I hope so! Haha I know but then I know I have to lose it at the end so I still try and be sensible. I'm looking forward to yummy holiday food soon though 😂
I'm sure they will - do you have anything planned this weekend? I'll keep my fingers crossed for no spotting.. and a BFP!!! Xx

@Confused678866 I'm sure u will it will be a lovely surprise in the end!! Your growing a baby you have a free pass to get bigger 🤣 I hope these next few days go really quick if I get to 11/12 dpo IL be happy with no spotting 🤞🤞 IL probably still test everyday like a mad women 🤣🤦 xxx

@Skl2021 Haha yeah I'm really hoping I will be able to hold out this time. My partner would be happy if I said I wanted to find out though. I've drummed it into my head I'm not finding out though lol.
I wouldn't be too hard on yourself though about your weight. It will happen!
I'm still wearing size 10-12 clothes but I'm definitely chubbier than last time. I did lose all my baby weight and I didn't put much on through lockdown really but I think within the last few months I definitely feel fatter! Xx

Skl2021 · 18/06/2021 17:52

@Confused678866 yes it was easy at the start but as the weeks went on I was desperate to find out! Is a nice surprise tho! Think I would find out again tho. I'm getting to impatient 🤣 haha I'm fatter too aswell 🤦 than with both my previous pregnancies so think that's not helping things I really should try harder to loose some weight 😩 then it might happen quicker xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 17:44

@Skl2021 Yeah I had a 4D one with my son and it's crazy how much he looked like it when he was born!
Haha well I'm hoping I'll be able to hold out but I really don't know 😂 I'm already convinced it's a boy! Haha I know, crazy how clear it was.. Your scan is very clear too! 😍 his little mouth!
Yes I was definitely at my thinnest when I fell pregnant with my son so that helped with it being so clear... I'd say I'm fatter this time around though 👀😂 xx

@Confused678866 yes forgot they were more for reasurrance! Sure the 4d ones will be amazing! I'm defo doing private with my next if it happens! I found out with my first child. And had a suprise with my second it did get hard work tho I was desperate to find out 🙈🤣 I was convinced he was a girl so was a shock when he came out!! Wow Ur scan is clear! Look at them lips! My first 12 week scan was quite clear but u couldn't see the brain 🙈 IL attach it. Think with my second son it wasn't as good but I was fatter with that pregnancy 🤦 xx

Would I take this as ovulation?🤞

@Skl2021 This was my 12 week scan with my son.. look at his pout. Turns out he had massive lips. Can even see his brain on there. I was amazed by it! Xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 15:32

@Skl2021 Haha I don't actually, I didn't last time either! I think because it's classed as a reassurance scan, they're not as focussed on getting you a good picture if that makes sense? I did get about 6 pictures at my last one though. My 12 week scan with my first baby was so so clear it was crazy. I think private scans are probably clearer when you go further along and you're having gender scans or 4D etc.
No I think we're going to try and hold out for a surprise! My partner would happily find out but I think I want to try and hold out. Did you find out with both of yours? We found out with our first xx

@Confused678866 do you call your bump anything? I know peanut is popular! Yours well looks like one on that scan! Are the pictures and experience not better private? I thought u would get better pictures and more of them? Are you going to find out the sex! I'm so excited for you! Xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 15:24

@Skl2021 Haha yes like a little peanut! Yes I'm intrigued about the difference between the scans.. I think the 12 week scan will probably be clearer than the private 11 week one though.
I love girls stuff too; it's just so sweet isn't it.
Ahh you never know!! I keep thinking I'm having another boy because of having a son already but who knows xx

@Confused678866 beautiful like a little peanut 🥜 will be so good to see the difference to your next scan! Love guessing the sex from the 12 week scan aswell 🙊 I absolutely love girls clothing some cute stuff and probably never get to buy it 🙈 xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 15:03

@Skl2021 Haha I've always looked at baby clothes, it's a little obsession of mine 😂 xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 15:03

@Skl2021 Oh that's very sweet of him. I'd say he's probably getting lucky later but you've had enough of that 😂
Yes I'm feeling positive but I think I hold myself back from getting too carried away!
Oh yeah course, I don't mind.. I didn't just want to put it on here in case it was insensitive of me xx

@Confused678866 oh must have known it's starting to take its toll IV just got a bunch of flowers delivered to me 😭. It will happen when it's meant to 🤞 aww so excited for you! Can't wait to have scans again it's so exciting seeing them on the screen. Bet your family will be over the moon such nice news! Xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 14:34

@Skl2021 I know what you mean, it is hard.. but keep your chin up and it will happen! 🤞🏻🙏🏻
Yes it does make me wonder if it will be another boy! But who knows. Yeah it should hopefully be a little clearer next week. Only having that because of going on holiday the following day with partners family and will have to tell them, otherwise I'd just wait until the 12 week scan. It is going pretty quickly!! Xx

Skl2021 · 18/06/2021 14:13

@Confused678866 I'm trying to stay positive just gets harder longer it takes! Oh wonder if it will be a boy again it does sound similar! I had totally different pregnancies but still ended up with boys 🤣🙈 aww I'm sure on your next private scan it will look like a proper baby and not a blob 🙊 can't believe how fast your going! Doesn't even seem that long. Crazy xx

Confused678866 · 18/06/2021 14:06

@Skl2021 Ahh I know but don't rule yourself out.. you really never know and you've made such a serious effort!!
It's very similar in o my last pregnancy, boobs hurt until first trimester finished and then second trimester was great and pretty much symptom free so I'm wondering if it will be the same this time. I have a private scan booked next Friday and then my 12 week scan is 6th July just after I come back from holiday xx
