Morning all ☺️. Was waiting to join a thread until I was post ovulation. Currently 2dpo on our 3rd cycle TTC, first cycle we had an early miscarriage. I already have 2 DC and now we're trying for our last ☺️

Would love some company to help each other get through the next few days xx

@Tryingfor3rdthank you 🥰
oh no I feel for you, I suffered with pgp in my last 2 pregnancies. Really hope physio helps! I never got referred for it before but I will push this time if it’s bad.
The last week or so the nausea and fatigue has kicked in, nausea goes once I eat though! I never suffered with my other two but I have been prescribed progesterone this time so think that’s why I’m more symptomatic xx

@lockdownbabyx that's fantastic news, huge congratulations!!! Really pleased for you! Midwife appt went well thanks, lovely to hear baby's heartbeat. I'm already starting to get PGP so been referred to physio. Have an internal scan tmrw to for cervical length check. How have your pregnancy symptoms been?

@Tryingfor3rdscan went well! Measuring dead on at 7+4 and saw the little heartbeat. Fingers crossed it stays this way 😬. I have another scan in 2 weeks just because of my history. Hope your midwife appointment goes well ☺️ x

@lockdownbabyx I'm good thanks, meeting midwife today for a routine check up. Excited for your scan today, hoping all goes well and little baba is doing well. How many weeks are you? Xx

@Tryingfor3rd thanks for checking in! I had a scan 10 days ago but it was too early, could only see a yolk sac so I’m actually going back tomorrow for another scan 😬. Feeling very nervous.
I’ve had no bleeding though and feeling very pregnant so fingers crossed all is well.

how are you feeling? Xx

@pcbrb How are you doing? I hope all is well.

@lockdownbabyx your plan sounds sensible to give it a few more weeks before the scan.

@Henski I'm in London too but on the other side to you in the East.

Henski · 11/03/2025 15:38

@lockdownbabyx thats good! I’m in London so spoilt for choice, but I used window to the womb too. I have two near me one in Watford and one in Ealing. Surprisingly the one in London had loads of offers on for their scans/tests.

@Henski aw yeah that is a faff, don't blame you for booking private. Glad all was well ☺️
There is a window to the womb opening local to me in the next few weeks, I've had to travel over an hour in the past. Maybe it is meant to be 😂 x

@Tryingfor3rd thank you, happy half way distance 💖

@lockdownbabyx The EPU did tell me to come for an early scan but then when I called they wanted a referral and my GP said they don’t do that so couldn’t be bothered with the faff. I waited till 7 weeks and had a private scan and all was well.

@Tryingfor3rd oh yes I remember you did at the beginning, hope it's subsided now? Oh god I can only imagine how tiring it must be whilst looking after your other 2!

I haven't even told anyone yet, I'm supposed to call EPU so they can take bloods but I may wait a few more weeks to see what happens. Just from experience I know my HCG increasing doesn't really mean much and I could still miscarry anyway. So I'll prob wait until I'm far along enough for a scan, maybe in like 2-3 weeks ish. I'm just trying to not stress this time and get caught up in all of it x

@lockdownbabyx Thank you! I had quite strong food aversions and nausea in 1st trimester and still some nausea in 2nd but the tiredness is unreal on some days. Excited for you and praying your little one sticks. When will midwives recommend for a scan? Big hugs x

@Tryingfor3rd oh how lovely, so happy for you 🩷. Can't believe it's been 20 weeks already, that's mad. Hope you have had an easy breezy pregnancy so far? ☺️

Thank you, wasn't trying this time but I'm just hoping it means it is meant to be 🤞🏼xx

@lockdownbabyx @Henski Congratulations to you both!!! So pleased for you 😍I was actually thinking of you a few days ago and was hoping you're ok, so it's such a pleasant surprise to see your message and with the good news! I'm 20 weeks now, found out yesterday we are having another little girl 💕

pcbrb · 11/03/2025 14:00

@lockdownbabyx congrats! Really good news to hear! I hope that this is a sticky one 🥰🫶🏼

@Henski did they not get you in early for a scan due to your MMC? Anytime I get pregnant now I get referred to EPU for a scan around 6-7 weeks but that me be because I've had quite a few losses. Fingers crossed for a cancellation 😁

Thank you! I'm really trying not to get my hopes up or test every day like a mad woman. I was checking my line progression last time and i still ended up miscarrying so it makes no difference x

OP posts:
Henski · 11/03/2025 13:35

@lockdownbabyx I did call the hospital this morning to see if they had any cancellations but they are fully booked, will try my luck again in couple of days 😂
I tested positive 10 DPO, I had heartburn all day and the only other time I had that was in my last pregnancy so did a test!
Hoping it’s a sticky one for you 🤞🏼

@Henski aw congratulations! It's such a nerve wracking wait isn't it? I've never managed to wait 12 weeks, always request earlier scans 🤦🏻‍♀️.

I've found out super early, just under 4 weeks I believe. I wasn't tracking anything so I'm not 100% sure, I'm not due on for another week x

OP posts:
Henski · 11/03/2025 13:22

@lockdownbabyx congratss, I too am pregnant 11+1 today, 12 week scan next week super anxious after last MMC.
How far along are you ?

@Tryingfor3rd so sorry I never replied to this! How are you getting on? How far are you now?

Didn't think I'd be back on here quite yet, but here I am pregnant again! Weren't even trying this time, we just said what will be will be. Xx

@lockdownbabyx how are you today? Sending you a big virtual hug which I know won't really help with what you're going through but please know that you're not alone and I'm thinking and praying for you. Have you had a chance to tell DP how you're feeling? Did you also get to speak to EPU?

lockdownbabyx · 13/12/2024 08:01

@Tryingfor3rd thank you. DP decided to tell me last night that he wants to hold off trying again for a year or so, for multiple (valid) reasons. I think I was dealing with it quite well because I knew we could just try again, now I worry that was my last chance. This loss has just destroyed me now 😭

Tryingfor3rd · 13/12/2024 07:55

@lockdownbabyx Thinking of you...

pcbrb · 11/12/2024 12:12

@lockdownbabyx I am so sorry that you are going through this! Good that you have strength as you said, but I wish you that you also find peace in this process 🙏🏼 thinking of you, hoping that you can have nice days with the kids during Christmas and keep us posted ♥️
