Ahhh keeping everything crossed for you @Paws4thought

We're good, Ovies 5 months and such a cheeky character, he's going to be a wild child I can tell 😂 We've started early weaning due to CMPA so he's tried lots of fruits and veggies and we've not found one he dislikes yet 😂 literally wants everything x

Paws4thought · 13/04/2025 08:01

Hi everyone!
Little update from me, not due on til Tuesday and testing positive again woohoo. Started progesterone last night and keeping everything crossed.

How is everyone getting on?

Jadeypie · 19/03/2025 14:45

Hi everyone 🥰

Where has the time gone? I crnt believe how old all the babies are getting it truly does fly!!

I found out which school my little man will be starting next month i just crnt cope ha.

We havnt been try ttc, that journey is truly over for us now. I'm off the metformin and I have my periods under control my health kick I've been on has done wonders for me so I've just been concentrating on being the best version of myself!

Hope everyone els is doing well ❤️

Westy22 · 19/03/2025 14:27

Hey!

How you all doing? Ovie is 4 months now 😍 we're on our first family holiday to Cape Verde which is a whole new experience 🤣

He's doing well but has CMPA and with it has come eczema which isn't fun, we have a proper regime to try and keep his skin under control otherwise it really flares up. He's still so dinky too but hoping he will chunk up now he's completely off milk protein formula.

Hope your all well ❤️❤️ xx

HopeAndStrength · 19/03/2025 10:20

Hi ladies, it's been a long time but I wanted to say hello and wish everyone well - whatever stage you are at in this journey.
My little boy is 13 months old now, I can't believe it. I'm back at work and he is enjoying nursery life, which is a huge relief.
Next month we will be heading up to Scotland to visit family and I can't wait, he was too little to really experience it all when we visited last year but I am hoping he will enjoy the holiday this time round.

Paws4thought · 08/03/2025 08:39

@Supertrooper101 no news from me, at the start of tww now.
Hope you're doing well :)

Supertrooper101 · 07/03/2025 20:04

Hows everyone getting on, or you all joined a new group lol
@Sez281 hows little one doing now? Didnt even know sleep aggresion was a thing until you mentioned it lol just figured mine had started to like play time in the dark lol

Sez281 · 11/02/2025 08:23

Hi ladies, apologies it's been so long. I hope everybody is doing ok?

@Supertrooper101 I can only imagine how surreal it was, such a shock 😢 No doubt the baby is keeping you busy but hope you're ok xx

@Westy22 and @SnookyPook Hope you're both getting some rest and babies are doing well too? We're in the throes of 4 month sleep regression here, she had been doing 8-8 with only one wake up but it's every 2 hours now 🥴 She's flying it though and won't last too much longer in 3-6 clothes at this stage 🙈😂

@Paws4thought @Westy22 and @xxcxdonxx I hope you are all keeping well and those waiting on tests etc I hope you get answers soon 🙏 xx

Thanks for all your messages 🙂 still abit sureal whats happened but 🤷‍♀️😔....
Great news about all your appointments, @Paws4thought finally someone is wanting to help you! Any luck on this cycle?
@Westy22 that is a big decision but very kind of you! Good to hear things r going well with your little, it is very crazy at times isnt it lol
@SnookyPook have you started weaning yet, not sure am looking forward to that stage again lol good to hear that your little uns results should come back normal too 🙂

Am sure ive missed alot to comment on, how are @Jadeypie and @Sez281 @xxcxdonxx getting on 🙂...

Not seen the HV in ages, they cancel or i do lol last time she was weighed she was just over a stone tho! Still very noisy at nite, but aparently my boy was but i must have forgot lol she has a flat side to her head from always sleeping on that side 🤦‍♀️ hoping it pops out at some point lol loves spitting and blowing bubbles haha and hates tummy time lol seem to be shrinking all her clothes in the dryer too 🤦‍♀️ roll on warmer weather lol

Paws4thought · 18/01/2025 08:58

@xxcxdonxx the consultant was nice, all my bloods came back completely normal so she's advised progesterone from positive test (finally someone giving it) and 3d scan of uterus when they're next at the clinic, she's hoping the progesterone will stop the spotting from happening and solve the problem but said might not be next one so just a waiting game really. I'm 8dpo amd it's dragging haha.
How are you getting on?

@Westy22 oh wow that's a big decision to make for your mum, hope she's coping with the dialysis. Ah he sounds like he's sleeping really well!

@SnookyPook can't believe he's over 6 months, that's gone so quickly. Fingers crossed you get signed off.

Hope everyone else is OK xx

xxcxdonxx · 18/01/2025 04:46

I’m so sorry @Supertrooper101 that must have been an awful shock. I hope you are all doing ok.

How did you get in with your appointment @Paws4thought hope you found it useful.

Glad to hear all the little babies are doing well @SnookyPook @Westy22 @Sez281 so nice to hear how they are getting on and the little people they are developing into.

SnookyPook · 08/01/2025 14:34

Happy New Year guys! Sorry I've been AWOL!

@Supertrooper101 gosh I'm so very sorry to hear about your Mum. What a shock for you. Hope you're as ok as you can be and that the kids have all coped with it ok too. Sending a big hug. 💕

@Jadeypie that appointment sounds really positive and great you've got the hycosy re-booked. Keeping everything crossed.

@xxcxdonxx sorry your appointment wasn't more fruitful but hopefully the one in March may provide some more clues and opportunities.

@Paws4thought hope your appointment on Friday is really helpful and gets things moving for you.

@Westy22 sounds like it's all going well with little one. Hope it's not too stressful with your Mum. So lovely of you to contemplate doing the transplant. Hope she is finding the dialysis ok.

@Sez281 hope you're well and had a lovely Christmas/New Year.

All good here thanks. Samuel will be 6 months in a couple of weeks which seems like complete madness!! Gearing up for weaning although not completely sure I'll start bang on 6 months - will be led by him. He has good head control but is still a bit floppy with sitting for long. He's quite different to his brother in that Sebby was extremely physical - he was already crawling and trying to pull up at this stage whereas Sammy is much more placid and still working on rolling. He has the most adorable giggle though and is a very smiley boy who charms everyone 🥰 Still only 12lbs4oz at the last weigh in a couple of days ago but keeping on his curve so they're happy. We're waiting to hear about the cardiology appointment and almost certainly will get signed off so that will be good. 😊

Jadeypie · 06/01/2025 16:43

@Supertrooper101 aww I'm really sorry to hear that! Sending my condolences to you and your family xx

@Westy22 don't apologise parenthood is bloody hectic haha my weeks feel like days i crnt get my head around that we are in January again 😅 xx

@Sez281 i hope the scan gives some answers these ovulation pains r no joke! I don't even need to do opks because the pains a sure indicator xx

Westy22 · 06/01/2025 13:35

Sorry for the radio silence, it's been a crazy few weeks 🫠 Life is certainly different now, he's a milk monster and has a very funny little personality coming through. Sleep is getting better and he's down to one night feed about 3/4 am then wakes about 8 so can't complain. We had a quiet Christmas, my mum started dialysis the Friday before Xmas and is preparing to go on the transplant list, I'm considering doing it for her if I matched, but not sure if I'd need to wait having had a csection.

@Supertrooper101 I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️ that must of been awful x

@Paws4thought @Jadeypie @xxcxdonxx still hoping for you guys 🙏

@Sez281 @SnookyPook how are you both? X

Sez281 · 05/01/2025 11:50

@Supertrooper101 Oh I'm so sorry to hear that, it must have been such a shock 😢 Hope you're ok xx

@xxcxdonxx that's great that you're covered by insurance. It's good to hear that there's nothing obviously wrong but very frustrating too I know. Maybe they'll have more answers in March

@Jadeypie glad you're rescheduled for the HyCosy, I had that along with Hysterocopy in the November and fell pregnant 2 cycles later. Not sure if connected or not but definitely worth it for a clear out of nothing else! 🙏

@Supertrooper101 so sorry for your loss! Made even harder with the timing over Christmas xx
@xxcxdonxx that's good you've still got some options to explore, hopefully you'll get some sort of answer.
@Jadeypie hopefully you'll get some answers soon from your tests 🤞

Supertrooper101 · 05/01/2025 09:08

@xxcxdonxx see i was told free fluid was a bad thing and could be from infection, theres a proper word for it i just cant remember what 🤦‍♀️
@Jadeypie you should have a lot of answers soon then, am plsd you guys including @Paws4thought are still staying strong and trying 🙂

Our xmas was pretty shite. My mum died out the blue over the xmas week so were still in abit of shock over that. Hoping all the kids are resilliant though and are ok in time

xxcxdonxx · 02/01/2025 20:10

@Jadeypie that sounds like it went well, getting someone to listen is half the battle I think!

Not long till yours now @Paws4thought snd sorry to hear that you still haven’t had any results back, hopefully that’s not too long now.
We are getting settled in thanks, definitely feels like home but just need to get on the decorating now.

I had my appointment on 31st. It was fine but didn’t really tell me anything new. I’d asked to check my section scar for any scar defects but there didn’t seem to be any issues with that either. Said she could see some ‘free fluid’ but wasn’t concerned and didn’t think it was a blockage in a tube or anything but I’ve to go back in March for a follow up anyway.

I’m very fortunate to get health insurance through my work and as of this year they now offer initial testing into miscarriage so I’m going to give them a call and see if there is anything worth being tested for.

Sez281 · 02/01/2025 14:21

Happy New Year ladies 🥂 @SnookyPook @Westy22 and @Supertrooper101 hope you all had a lovely one with the new babies 🥰

Hope those of you with little ones already of Santa age had a lovely Christmas xx

@Jadeypie @xxcxdonxx and @Paws4thought good luck with up coming appointments, I have no doubt that this group will bear some good news for you guys this year 🙏

Jadeypie · 30/12/2024 15:15

@xxcxdonxx I've had more bloods done and checking my egg reserve also getting the hycosy scan because I had to cancle that when I lost the last pregnancy so things are rolling again. She was a lovely consultant and listened to my concerns ect. I hope your appointment goes well! Xx

@Paws4thought hope yours goes well too not long to wait xx

Hope everyone els had a lovely Xmas ours was lovely back to normality now ha xx

Paws4thought · 29/12/2024 08:35

@xxcxdonxx I've got my appt 10th Jan and I'm out for this month so hopefully that will be useful 🤞 still waiting on dna results from last mva, they've got them but the consultant is taking ages to right up letter and they won't tell me anything before that.
Have you settled into your new home?

Hope everyone is doing ok.

xxcxdonxx · 28/12/2024 23:46

Hi @everyone! Hope you have all
had a lovely Christmas and the little ones enjoyed all the magic of it all.

Hope your appointment on the 17th went ok @Jadeypie . I’ve got mine on the 31st, will be interested to see if anything comes of it.

Nothing really to report on my side, the run up to Christmas was exhausting I’m so glad to just be enjoying some down time now!

Hope you are all well 🥰

SnookyPook · 16/12/2024 13:32

@Westy22 lovely to hear from you! Wow, 5 weeks already 🥰 Glad all is going well! Ouch though - I once slipped on stairs years ago and landed on my coccyx and it still plays up if I lie in certain positions! Definitely very painful - hope you're ok!! Glad c-section recovery is all going well!! Ooh, I had a bleed at 6 weeks which I thought was my period returning as other bleeding had stopped a week or two earlier .. however I've never had any more since. I think you can get a last plug of stuff coming out around then so fingers crossed you may yet get a few more period-free months!

I'm still not fully ready for Christmas but thankfully we're not hosting this year so that's a few things less to worry about! We're all doing well! Saw my eldest in his first nativity play - he was a shepherd and it was super cute 🥰 Samuel is doing well! Getting more and more personality by the day now. Love this stage 🥰 HV was here to weigh him a week ago - still under 12lbs! Hehe... But doing well. Well be starting to think of weaning soon - can't believe it!!

Hugs to you all ☺️ xxx

Westy22 · 15/12/2024 01:01

Sorry I've took ages to reply, the last few weeks are a blur lol Ovie is 5 weeks today, I can't remember life before 🫠😂 were battling through some rough nights and potential silent reflux but he's so lovely and smiling lots now. OH is back at work Monday and tbh I'm looking forward to my own bit of routine starting as he's not coped being off work for this long at all. Feel like I've recovered well from c section although I slipped on the stairs the other day and seriously banged my coccyx bone and I swear it's worse than c section recovery 😂 think I got my period already which is annoying considering I'm expressing thought it would delay it 😂

How are you @Sez281 @SnookyPook @Supertrooper101

Are you all ready for Christmas? I'm not organised in the slightest and we're hosting 🙈

How's everyone getting on? @Paws4thought @Jadeypie @xxcxdonxx

Supertrooper101 · 14/12/2024 21:39

Good luck with the appointments coming up too. Think its worth going, uv nothing to loose and may even get some answers 🙂
