TWW feels like forever #2

I took my patch off on 23rd. Yesterdays and today's opk lh level is 0 😱 not sure why I expected anything other than that so quickly!

Horrible symptons slowly coming in though now I'm not on the patch and I've halved my medication. Slow and steady wins the race. Remembering to breathe 😂

@SKLMresult came back all low probability which is the best outcome so that’s a bit of a relief. 12 week scan next week and touch wood my nausea is lifting a bit so once this heat goes I might feel semi normal!!

@TheUniqueMemberI remember reading that for some people it can take a couple of months for hormones to go back to normal after patch but hopefully things will steady out for you quite quickly x

Hey @SKLM glad everything is looking well for you! A little girl, how lovely 💕 have you started to think about names now?
All ok here so far touch wood. 24 weeks now and was told yesterday I no longer need to be consultant lead so back to midwife lead care. Some mixed feelings about this tbh… I’m glad I’m not considered a risk anymore but worry about another PPH like I had with my first. They said they will check my iron levels at 28 and 36 weeks to see if anything looks concerning but all being well I’m free to birth whenever - literally her words yesterday!

I started to feel movements within the last 2 weeks. Anterior placenta again so later than hoped for but nice to feel them.

We decided to keep the gender a surprise again but I’m pretty sure I heard the sonography say “her” during the 20w scan so I’m pretty convinced it’s a girl too.

Hope everyone is ok xx

Hi @SKLM & @Lookingtogrowthefamily

Funny, I haven’t been on this website for months and I had this weird urge to check the thread just now .. and I see you’ve commented today! Very strange how that happens.

Its lovely to hear that you’re both doing well and your little bubba’s are growing nice and healthy 🩷 yey for a girl @SKLM @Lookingtogrowthefamily that is naughty of her to let it slip. But either way, I’m glad all is well.

I’m still not pregnant. We have completely given up trying in the formal sense. I will stay off contraception and continue as we are. When I get to the 12 month mark (which scarily isn’t that far away) we will speak to someone and have it looked in to. We have been through a ridiculous amount of stress though and our future has been a little uncertain (home & business) so I wonder if it’s the universe telling me that now isn’t the right time. We are putting our farm and house on the market soon, so maybe things will begin to turn for the better once we’re in a better place mentally 🤞🏼

Hey @PandaLifehope you’re doing ok? You know I fully believe in that stuff mind, like timings etc work out when they’re meant to. Sounds like a lot has been going on so yeah maybe you’re body is just wanting things to be more settled first before adding in another stress (in the sense of worry over the first few weeks especially) xx
