Wow that is awesome radders! It must be a strange feeling to think it could have been two, but so amazing you have a healthy little human growing inside you! SmileBrewFlowers

physicskate · 08/07/2016 13:24

Radders that is so fabulous! I am so so happy for you! Makes that little one extra special!

Off to New York and the California for three weeks. Last minute panic! Due AF when I am with family, and really don't want any errant tests about, so probably going to hold off until at least the 19th... if AF doesn't arrive as scheduled on the 18th! Although flying does always seem to bring of AF for me, so likely AF will arrive tomorrow! Hope not!

See you all in a few weeks!

Mimilicious013 · 08/07/2016 13:28

Oh radders,that's amazing!glad you have been reassured and sorry for the other bean.

Mimilicious013 · 08/07/2016 13:30

Enjoy your holiday physicsWinebring us back a bfp!!!

ps2304 · 08/07/2016 17:34

Ahhh, my mum is coming soon and I'm so nervous!!!!!

Hello new thread!

Nimisha
cycle 4
TTC 3
CD 15 1dpo (or maybe 0dpo).

Wow radders, its great to see your pic, I thought it might be a twin pregnancy as you got ov pains on both sides the cycle you conceived. I'm glad there is a healthy little bean in there! I'm sorry about the other bean, it is a loss even if you didn't know there were two.

Have a great holiday Physics, hope you can still pop in and see us. I hope AF stays away on the flight.

Try not to lose heart Mimi, big hugs. Will you test soon?

Good luck summer, fingers crossed for you.

I cant believe how far along you are Parney, it won't be too long before you are feeling movements!

How old is your little boy Tee?

I hope this is lucky cycle 7 for you too Jem. For the list my test day is the 19th but I might test before then, I have some FRERs on order. I had a positive OPK the day before yesterday but I think I am ovulating today, I just have the feeling. I want to be positive but just remember how down I felt when AF arrived this time. I have a camping holiday on the 22nd so I will enjoy a few glasses of wine if I'm not and try not to be so obvious I am not drinking if I have succeeded this cycle.

Footprints1 · 08/07/2016 18:06

Radders- so pleased to see your scan pic radders. SmileWow twin sacs, didn't realise they could tell, that's fascinating. Explains the double pains you had at ov. Sorry though for your loss but good news that the other little bean is well and growing! You must be relieved.

PS- good luck telling the folks. Smile

Nim- hope you caught the egg! Another camping trip for u- you must be a keen camper.Grin

Thanks for all the book recommendations I bought 2 today- girl on train and ordered husbands secret. Still nothing much happening - cramps like AF though Envy I want to test tomorrow if AF not arrive but feel I'm wasting my money each time. Maybe I should wait til Monday for blood results.

SuchaJem · 08/07/2016 18:06

Have a wonderful hol Kate, hope you bring back a stowaway bean.

Mimi still no sign of AF? Are you testing daily? Fx for you.

PS must be nerve wracking especially when it's their first grandchild too! Enjoy it Smile

Thanks nim. I know exactly how you feel re remembering the wretchedness of getting AF. Keep focusing forwards if you can, and stay positive. I know it's not easy. Fx for you.

Radders hope you are processing it all okay x

Footprints1 · 08/07/2016 18:08

Physics- enjoy your hol

Tee- yes me too want a 7week scan if I was upduffed.

Jem- I'm feeling positive for you too :)

raddersmrs · 08/07/2016 18:18

Thank you everyone for the kind messages. We have told my parents and now just on the way to tell his parents Smile

Ps how did yours go?

Nim good to hear from you ... I was thinking about you this morning as thought hadn't heard from you for a while but that may be me forgetting!

Tee yes I did ... Brown spotting. Not much and really bad pains. Could well have been!

Footprints agree it's fascinating. Mad isn't it really

I don't agree with the sickness myth either to be honest.

It's good to have for reassurance. It was £59 and you're in there 5-10 minutes but just puts mind at rest ... For the time being!

radders that's amazing! Lovely to see a scan. Glad it's made you feel a bit more positive Smile

Enjoy your holiday Kate! It seems everyone who's been on holiday has got a BFP - perhaps this is the new thing!

mimi I totally understand about losing heart. But I think now I'm putting my all in to it I don't know if I can stop so easily. I know that sounds silly, but I can't imagine not TTC, because until I get my BFP I'll want to know when to DTD & what my body is doing.

Pepper, I used to use CBD ovulation tests but actually found eBay/amazon cheapies better! I can use 4 in a day when I'm coming up to ovulation so I can try & catch the very beginning of a surge. CBD doesn't allow for that. Plus with the CBD I found I had to keep buying the ovulation Stick refills that come with the handle because they don't sell them separately yet!! (personally I think it's more way for them to make money!)

Start of fertile week tomorrow... Then back to the waiting game. I really really really hope this is the month for us all.
I would love an April baby!

Mimilicious013 · 08/07/2016 18:34

Good luck psSmile

Happy Friday everyoneFlowersWineCake

ps2304 · 08/07/2016 18:37

Mimilicious013 · 08/07/2016 18:39

Hope you catch the egg busta.I didn't realise you have been ttc long too.best of luck hun and really hope this is the month for us all!!

Enjoy sharing your awesome news radders.

physicskate · 08/07/2016 18:42

Last post! Eek! Hope I haven't forgotten anything!

Not sure how this month will go but no ov over the holiday predicted (will be back by next time!). Will try not to symptom spot - have enough to distract me!

Good luck all!!

Tee4me · 08/07/2016 18:50

Nimi I hope egg and swimmer are getting acquainted as we speak! My little fella will be 4 in September, was hoping for a smaller age gap with his sibling. Ah well, at least he'll be old enough to help a bit more Grin
Footprints there are no good dramas about at the moment! I'm looking forward to Broadchurch coming back in the Autumn. Do you have Sky Catch-Up? Just checked what's available, and there is a two- parter called 'A Mother's Son' which I seem to remember being worth a watch.
Have fun Kate!
Busta totally agree about an April baby, this is such a good time of year to get up-duffed! x

Tee4me · 08/07/2016 20:00

Jem how are things tonight?? Lots of symptoms still?? x

Summerblush1982 · 08/07/2016 20:08

Thanks for all the recommendations on OPKs order some cheapys to try.
Hoping they come quickly! AF here with a vengeance! Have had a sneaky chocolate bar today to make up for it!

Radders that scan is lovely! Sorry for your loss of the other one Flowers

Good luck all those telling their parents! Can't wait to get to do that! Enjoy your holiday footprints!

Busta and tee I would love an April baby!

ps2304 · 08/07/2016 21:14

Parents have been told! They loved the cards and there were lots and lots of tears. It was lovely. Just praying it all goes ok now. X

Summerblush1982 · 08/07/2016 21:21

Cd1 today guys!! I'm ok with it...I'm away for a long weekend with friends, so having a chilled weekend having fun and some prosecco.
Soooo, I was a smoker! I've given up! Day 6 of going cold turkey!! I'm trying to get things back in check. Maybe me smoking has been a hinderece?
Apart from that, can't see much else being a problem. My weight is good! I'm slim built with no weight to gain or lose. .AF regular, so now getting back on health vibe xxx

SuchaJem · 08/07/2016 21:53

Eek glad you enjoyed telling your folks radders and ps that must be such a lovely experience. I can't wait until we get to tell ours. We've got the in laws coming this weekend and they've mentioned how much they are looking forward to it a few times!

Good luck in fw busta hope you enjoy it and catch the egg

Mimi really hoping it's not AF, keeping fx for you

Sorry about AF summer, hope you're alright. Good luck with giving up the ciggies - it's always mentioned as a barrier to ttc so hopefully that will be the boost you need.

Tee to be honest I'm not feeling much tonight, which is kind of a good thing as usually would be full on PMS sore boobs etc by now. Today was still light headed and not feeling quite right. Tempted to test at the weekend but my in laws are coming and DH has just been called off standby - so he's going away first thing and doesn't get back until Monday and I've got his parents to myself!! Not ideal testing conditions. Will hold out until Monday I reckon... How are you feeling??

raddersmrs · 09/07/2016 06:41

Morning everybody

I've got brown spotting this morning .... What an arse is that just after scan and telling parents. Hoping it's nothing again and normal. It's basically like brown CM. I had some cramps yesterday but haven't got any this morning.

So have scan for reassurance then spot afterwards so now you're kind of back to worrying again!
It's just Sod's law isn't it xx

Footprints1 · 09/07/2016 06:58

Radders- I'm sure it's just a bit if old blood. I do think it's common. Have you dtd at all? Try rest up and not worry. Xx
