@kaylsd
Oh she's so scrumptious! Hope you're all doing well and not too many sleepless nights!

Oh and just today I got my appointment set for fertility clinic, 14th September! 2 days after my birthday! Meant to be! X

Oh @kaylsd
i just had a sudden thought that you must have had your bubs by now, logged on and low and behold 😍 she is beautiful and well done you!
if you’re comfortable DM me your instagram if you’re on it so I can keep up with you!x

Hi ladies little check in for you
My miracle baby has arrived 🥹
Meet Ivy grace, 7lb 3, born via c section from being a Breech baby! Absolutely besotted by her xxxx

I've heard some people get through this by passing private for the intial consultation bit themselves which ends up pushing their NHS referal more to the top of the list before? :( @KatieLooLa

@kaylsd
Just looked up the waiting time for referral to initial appointment.... 10 months!
It looks like I'm in for a long wait yet 😔 x

Awww bless her little cottons! She looks so happy and excited!
I'll give it a couple more weeks for a call/letter then I'll give them a ring and see what's going on x

Omg how beautiful :o have you rang them up chick? I was told from hospital they have to be in touch 2 week from contact referal?

Look at our smiley mabes 🥰🥰🥰
So happy to be a big sister soon T minus 7 week!

Still not heard anything from clinic for first appointment, hopefully won't be too much longer!
Some Ares spam for you all in the meantime though, she was particularly derpy 😂

The referral to infertility clinic from the GP to our local trust was around 3 monthly between appointments to investigate to follow up, then once they gave us male and female infertility diagnosis we hit criteria to be referred to assistance fertility which is like IUI IVF which we was under care and they were really quick :) every 2 week or so

All we've had so far is appointment with GP. So waiting for our first appointment with the fertility clinic, been told that once we have our first appointment it's pretty speedy from there with investigations and tests etc. X

@KatieLooLa that's amazing, I loved being honest and open about mine n DH infertility journey even in our pregnancy announcement we wrote a paragraph how we was waiting for IVF and took years to get we're we was, have you had your first appointments or in the middle of investigations? I found the frustrating part was the time between appointments ours ended up being like 3 month apart! Good luck sweetheart we are all behind you ❤️

I'm doing good thanks! Back to work at the start of September though 😭 time has been going far too quickly!

Ahh enjoy these last few weeks, I miss my bump weirdly!!!

@kaylsd I'm good, finally managed to get referred to fertility clinic, so just waiting on a letter to come through. Made a TikTok for Ares in the meantime 😂 little madam got hold of 1/2 a sausage roll from local bakery the other day, she's usually so good if food is left out! We left the room to get something from the kitchen, came back to the bedroom and she was in the corner leisurely eating until I asked what she had in her mouth to which her response was to quickly inhale what was left!
Not long to go! Really happy for you and hope the rest goes as smoothly!
Hope all you lovely ladies are doing well x

@lucea87 omg I cannot believe how time has flown! And progress is progress they will get there even if it takes a little bit more time than usual, has the health visiting team coming out regularly? My friends going through similar and they referred to paeds ect and it's just the fact she's a small baby 🥰

I'm doing really well thank you sweetheart I've had the smoothest pregnancy ever no symptoms no particular issues other than a low placenta what I get checked out again at 32 week, measuring on 52nd so smack bang middle, everyone around me says how content I feel at life and they are so right 😍 how are you darling?

Ahh amazing! Look at you!!! You must feel fabulous 🥰 how are you doing?

My bubs is just over 7 months now and she FINALLY hit the 0.4centile yesterday weighing in at 11lb 14oz! She's started babbling the last few days and has said dada today. Traitor.

@KatieLooLa @CycloGoose @els10
Hope your okay beautiful ladies!
31 weeks tomorrow, 9 to go and feeling as round as Humpty Dumpty on the wall but only difference is they can easily get up and down walls and I'd be a slow waggle up! Here's our mabes snuggling for a bump shot 🥰

@CycloGoose must admit, I did cave during those 3 months, pinched a cig from a co-worker, took one puff and threw it away, tasted foul! I'm surprised how much my sense of smell had been affected, smell of smoke is horrid to me now x

@kaylsd Ares is malting something awful!
She looks so tacky at the moment, keep plucking the loose stuff on our walks, leaving husky glitter everywhere 😂 x
I'm trying to stay positive, not taking any tests despite how much I'd like to, never know though!
I quit smoking (3 months!) not drinking either so maybe it'll help x

@KatieLooLa hun never say never! Look at me I'm a true statistic in that after 17 month, gruelling tests panics and stresses of infertility appointments long cycles (longest being 116 days) pcos diagnosis with male infertility ready to start IVF then the month before being our only hope... and a then natural miracle happened! so yeah as much as I know hope doesn't feel alot when your facing a battle of something you are dying for, hope can change in darkest of circumstances and you never know what's round corner! Please keep us posted on here with your appointments so we can help!

What a gorgeous little fluffer 😍😍😍😍 our mabes needs a chop at the moment, she's more lion cub than ever!

@CycloGoose Here you go, one very fluffy Ares 😂
Will let you know as soon as about checks, not made appointment yet, probably will make it in the next week or two, just in case this is the month it happens (as doubtful as that may be!) x

Thanks reassuring to know it sounds such a common thing from what I can read, I've not had any bleeding as yet and I take things steady as possible so hopefully everything continues to cook well! I can only imagine what it's like to loose your privacy in the toilet, mable still follows me like a shadow into toilet so what's harm in a little baby doing the same? ;) @CycloGoose is the best recommendation the sprits for bits or a empty bottle with cold water what does same?
