TWW - Testing Around 1st March

Creating a thread for anyone close to ovulation or already in the TWW! I find this journey easier speaking to people going through the same and on the same timeline. We are trying for baby #1 after a MC end of June/July, we was going with the flow but after nothing happening we decided to start tracking ovulation last month and this month i started tracking BBT as well. This month is also our first month using Preseed after I saw so many people say it helped!

I am currently 3DPO - Ovulation was on cycle day 15 confirmed by BBT.

@UnwieldyRhombus tomorrow, @TTCRainbow on Tuesday, @Myperfectchaos and me on Wednesday, who else?

Good luck to everyone for 12 week scans, we've got @UnwieldyRhombus tomorrow, @1sttimemummy2022

❤️❤️❤️ what a relief!

I have my 12 week scan tomorrow. I would say it's come around fast, but I've spent the last 6 weeks so, so sick and absolutely exhausted. I've been struggling to look after my toddler and I've been really hit and miss about being able to work, and being really slow when I can work. But...those are good signs, right? 🤞

I'm 12.5 weeks now and it feels like the fog is starting to lift. Less sick, tired out but not sleep-16-hours-a-day-exhausted. I just really hope everything is fine tomorrow. It's been a rollercoaster ride!

I am 10 weeks today or maybe 9+6 going by my scan….I have my 12 weeks scan on 3rd nov and due 11:11. I feel absolutely rank. Been on every sickness medication going but nothing is helping. Been in bed most nights as soon as I put the toddler to bed 🤣🤣

hey @DiamondApricot - omg that was same as me the day after scan i had sickness bug couldn't keep anything down and had fever! Baby bean will be fine, someone said to me the more poorly you feel the better they are as you are protecting them! How exciting!!

We had first midwife appointment yesterday so have officially got pregnancy notes which is such a milestone for us, tomorrow we've got 10 week private scan too so can wait to see how much they've grown, going to ask if we can listen to the heartbeat as we only saw it last time!

Hope everyone else is ok! My sickness/nausea seems to have got better, not completely gone and some days worse than other still but i actually feel half human now!! xxx

OP posts:
DiamondApricot · 14/04/2023 12:27

How is everyone doing? I've been plagued by illness ever since the scan so hope the bean is still OK, planning to tell my parents tomorrow 😀

DiamondApricot · 04/04/2023 18:11

I've got 13th Nov but I think I'll wait until my dating scan to update all my apps, already booked as a remarkable show of efficiency by the NHS - 3rd May.
I've got pics but there isn't a huge amount to see, the circle at the top is the yolk sac.

Omg we are all 8 + 3 🤯🥺❤️ My report said due on 11.11 which is what i predicted before I fell pregnant 🙈 (I wrote manifestations and affirmations in my notes - really spooky!) As mine was private I brought the video and extra photos which I’ll attach a photo from 7 weeks.. next scan is 10 weeks on 15th so will post update!

@TTCRainbow is 8+3 too 😬❤️

Sb86 · 04/04/2023 16:27

That's wonderful news @DiamondApricot 🥰 I'm 8+3 too, will be interesting to see what date they actually arrive on ❤️ did you get a pic? I got one from epu at 6+5 not much to see but how nice is it to have the photo anyway!

DiamondApricot · 04/04/2023 16:20

@TTCRainbow it went fantastically, thank you! One (phew, twins in the family) little bean, heart beating away! Dated 8+3😁Feels more real now!

@TTCRainbow thank you for the luck and reassurance, I'll be sure to report back.

Your sickness shouldn't last forever so if that's coming down its OK, week 9 is meant to be peak so you're not far off.
This part is so hard, once the kicks start, at least there's a better indicator that all is well!

@DiamondApricot Aww good luck for tomorrow! I guess its worrying when you have another pregnancy to compare it too but they say everyone can have completely different pregnancies each time. I'm positive all will be ok and you can then get back to midwifes and get your appointments book! I'm 8 weeks 2 days today and feel like things are slowing down rather then pacing up... 😫Just really hope everything is still ok in there! xx

OP posts:
DiamondApricot · 03/04/2023 14:23

It's tomorrow! I'm rather nervous as I had horrendous sickness right up until delivery with my first and this is at worst, mild nausea.
I've even got midwives chasing me as I don't see the point in booking bloods until I've confirmed there's something there!

Hey all how is every doing?

@DiamondApricot have you had your scan yet??

I've been having bad sickness/nausea but seem to have got to 8 weeks and its slowing down... which i thought it would get worse. Obvs worried a little but i have a 10 week scan booked on 15th so just will have to hold out until then to make sure all is still ok! God does the worrying ever stop! lol xxx

@DiamondApricot I defo think it was a 24 hour bug! Gone back to just my normal sickness now, hopefully dont pick up any more germs :(

We had 50% off for booking another early scan so impatient me couldn't wait until our 12 week scan so have booked one for 10 weeks to brake up the waiting time! I feel like after the MC and it being out first baby i just want to alway make sure everythings ok.

Hope everyone else is doing good xxx
