Elderberry Pavlovas Unite - the over 30s TTC number 1 (thread 2)

[Bunnygirlie]

Ladies, Time for a new thread for us oldies (well not that old) TTC number 1 and our MN friends who have their BFP but are still coming along for the ride :-)

bunnygirlie, 32, TTC since June, AF due end Nov
Winkle, ttc 15 months, BFP due 19/11
Zombies, ttc 2 cycles, erratic cycle, PCOS. Next POAS not before 15 December.
Pipbin, ttc 15 cycles, BFP due 27/11
BraveLilBear TTC cycle 1 after early mc, BFP due 18/11

Aquarius, 32, ttc 8 mths, bfp due mid dec

Janey, 38, six weeks pg
Rach, 34, PG 7+5. Booking appointment on Wednesday.
Quod, 33, six weeks pg
HazleNutt 8 weeks pg

Sorry if I missed anyone :-)

Rach The nuchal measurement was 1,2, so 1 is certainly normal. I think over 2,5 is considered high risk?

I used a French site that had quite a nice selection, www.enviedefraises.fr/

In UK, www.next.co.uk/women/maternity/trousers/1 has several under bump and adjustable waist options.

Quod I haven't ordered any yet as I can't decide what's best, but I was going to take a punt on these.
I've read some reviews which say under bump trousers are annoying and keep falling down but I think over bump trousers will just look stupid at the moment while I look fat rather than upduffed, so I'm still scratching my head while my clothing choices get smaller!

Evening ladies.

Well I'm 5 dpo here, which means AF is due on Boxing day. I have been trying not to think about it too much really. If we don't get a bfp this cycle then its the lap and dye on the 18th.

Zombie any update?

hi pipbin holding tight, no sign of AF yet. Will check again tomorrow morning and fx the BFP won't have gone away!
bunny I am sure next week will be happier when the building work will be done (?) and when you will both (hopefully) have a bit of a breather. Not at all sorry to have asked and glad you shared. Hopefully you feel a bit better for having vented. I think these last weeks before christmas can be a bit fraught because things get really busy before they shut down. Hugs.

pip forgot to say, fx for you that Boxing Day brings no AF.

Thanks again zombie I know I've been a bit of a grotbag this last week so trying to turn it around now. Gonna go see my doctor in the new year and DH is going to see his too. I don't actually think there is anything wrong other than not getting to DTD at the right time of the month

Zombie so? Is there a BFP this morning?

Good point hazle! Where are you zombies? It's nearly 4pm in Thailand and I am still waiting for your news!

Pip Fx for Boxing day!!!

Zombie How is the POAS going? Sounds very promising. Keeping it all crossed for you.

Bunny I know it's tough and so frustrating but It will come good. I've found it such a slog and anything else that gave me so much stress I would have walked away from. It's a very lonely place but every step you take gets you closer to what you want or an answer to why it isn't happening and a solution. I hope the clouds clear soon and enjoy the xmas tipples!!! x

I have a day off work today so I can be all mental in the comfort and privacy of my own home. Boobs still sore but no other symptoms. Worked out that my prev 2 mc were 19 days after got a ovu symbol on CBFM, which will be Saturday so I decided to do another clear blue test at about 3am this morning thinking that if I got conception dates of 2-3 weeks I could relax a bit.....but no, the bugger still said 1-2 weeks which isn't enough to make me any more worried than I was before. Wish I had some other symptoms...

Anyway, lots to do today- promised my mum I would relax and not exert myself but have a lot of cleaning to do. Have a parcel delivery due with a window of 7.30 - 17.30!!!! That's convenient!

Have such bad OV pains this morning, thought the OV cramps were over and done with 2 days ago but this morning a totally new pain arrived....a much fiercer pain OUCH. This can stop asap

Hate to say it mother but that's how I knew I was pg... Really weird shooting / cramping feeling whilst sat at my desk. SS test...BFN. Two days later and got a BFP... Fx

Really janey, I only got a positive on my OPK yesterday though? It was pretty intense this morning, thankfully easing a bit now (phew) I hope you're right and this is a good sign. Our timing has been spot on this month and I'm healthier and more relaxed than before so fingers crossed. I just have a good feeling that this is out month, may just be kidding myself though. Thanks for giving me hope though janey really appreciate it!

It's still a BFP Fx it continues!

Yay congratulations!!

Zombies does this mean AF is officially late now?

rache not till tomorrow but essentially yes.

Thanks hazle! As we all know it's all so touch and go in the first 12 weeks that I'm afraid to get excited. Will let it build up slowly.

Yay, congrats zombies everything crossed for you.

Well a BFP is a BFP!

Thank you!!
(I'm sorry I'm such a glass half full person- I'm afraid to be happy and a bit superstitious about tempting fate!)
Enough about me, let's talk about more interesting things.

There is nothing more interesting than a new BFP!

I am secretly so thrilled though!!

Just had another friend announce her pregnancy on facebook.....I really wish that was me

Zombie Great news!!
I know exactly what you mean - one minute you get a flash of 'It's going to be OK', then the next thing...'oh no, don't think that.. you'll ginx it'.
Rollercoaster.....

Yay! well done Zombie! The worry doesn't go away you know...I've got my 12 week scan tomorrow and I'm terrified!
