SQUARE ONE TO GRADUATES - expecting more graduates in July!

[raddersmrs]

Rollover thread!

Radders I can imagine how worrying it must be. Everything I have read says brown spotting is normal. I have my fingers crossed for you xx

My body let me sleep till 6.50 before baving to make a run for the toilet! Sorry if tmi but I feel we share everything on here!
I will be happy if it stays as this rather than sickness but for some reason I doubt it will!

This may be a personal question but I will ask anyway. Since finding out I am pregnant we are yet to have dtd (6days) are you all still doing it who are newly pregnant? My upset stomach is putting me off completely. Will it be 9 months of this or will I feel up for it soon?!!

Summer- sorry for AF thinking I'm joining you today.

I've had terrible AF pains in the night, painful boobs and a pounding headache. Def signs it's almost here. On a positive note- I'm on holiday on thurs, so will start 2nd round of clomid & fw on holiday. Strange thing is my temp is 36.70 so still up but AF is def coming.

How are u feeling tee & Jem ? You are just behind me so I really want to see BFP's for u both!!!

Radders- when is your scan through the hosp/gp? Really hope it stops asap so you can feel positive, hugs hon your scan was ok yesterday so just keep thinking that. X

I've read it's common in the early weeks radders, though it mustn't half scare the crap out of you. Think on your healthy scan and stay positive hon, keeping everything crossed for you

I hope you're wrong footprints but if it comes, fw on holiday seems to be a winning combo for your next try.

I'm feeling fine today, apart from wide awake at 0630 which is weird and still got lots of trapped wind which is making my tummy uncomfortable.

No more PMS signs which is promising. I would normally have raging breast pain by now, uncontrollable mood swings, achy pelvis and some hormonal acne by now. The only thing I've had which is normal PMS was sugar craving and being stroppy / moody on Thursday.

Can't lie I've got my hopes up this month. Really hope I'm not in for a fall

Footprints of your temp is still up that is very positive isn't it? Are you tempted to test?

Jem when are you testing?

PS I really want to test every time I pee! But can't face the white stick of doom! Am probably going to wait until DH gets back from work on Monday. By then I'll be 10 DPO so better chance of spotting something.

Praying that all is well with you radders but like the others said brown spotting is normal and nothing to worry about.if in doubt you can go and get checked
Sorry for afsummer good luck next cycle
footprints fx the witch stays and away. Temps looking positive.
jem I'll be your poas buddie Monday. Can't stand that white too but certain if I get Monday, my cycle is just messed up
tee when are u poas? A wider age gap is easier to manage.also gives you room to breathe on the school fees later
Ps ,it will get better.

Radders that must be so unnerving, but just keep reminding yourself the scan was fine and the spotting is brown which is old blood, so couldn't be related to anything happening between then and now. It was a normal tummy scan wasn't it?? Not an internal?? I read on some websites that the early viability scans are often done internally.
Footprints remember back to Parney who was absolutely convinced AF would arrive any second. Why don't you test again?? Sounds like the perfect set up for next cycle if you have been unsuccessful this time.
Jem I'm so excited for you! How's your skin feeling? Still noticeably hot?

Still nothing here... my temp was really low last night, which initially upset me, but then I remembered about IP dipping (and it was 9dpo!). Back to normal post ov range this morning. I guess tomorrow's temp will give me a good idea of which way it's going. Really feel like I need to feel some symptoms this weekend to start feeling hopeful! Might test tomorrow night either way. Totally agree with it being the white stick of doom Jem! I find it scarier when hopes are up tho! If I'm still feeling fairly negative it won't feel like such a wrench if it's a bfn.
PS I was a tad nervous about DTD in my first 12 weeks, so I think we only managed it a handful of times. Definitely relaxed more in 2nd & 3rd trimesters, so no don't worry, you are not destined for 9months of celibacy!!! x

Ps we haven't done it for nearly three weeks .... We've spoke about the fact we haven't done it. I just feel lousy so don't feel up for it. OH says it doesn't bother him at all ... At end of day I'm carrying his child and just wants me to feel ok.
Hoping on holiday will have more chance in day when I'm not feeling ill.

She said there was no blood around baby so I'm hoping all normal. It's Oh birthday today so I'm not telling him, will keep it to myself.

Jem - sounding really positive. I have high hopes for you.

Tee it was abdominal and not dtd so not reason for it really. Oh well hopefully it'll go. I think it might look more because it's mixed with creamy CM.

My dad messaged me this morning saying he woke at 5 dreaming of the nursery and do they do pushchairs with dog loops in for the lead?! He must be excited.

Footprints still feeling positive for you.

Summer sorry AF got you.
Mimi you're still in with a chance

I read about the twin thing - it's called vanishing twin!

Mimi - you're on

Tee that would be spot on for implantation dip - fingers crossed its back up tomorrow. My skin doesn't feel very hot to be honest!

Thanks radders. That's so sweet your dad is dreaming about being a granddaddy already!

Is it normal to constantly be worrying in the back of my head something may go wrong?
Apart from bad stomach I have no real orher symptoms, my boobs don't hurt really anymore. I just can't seem to relax and enjoy it yet.

Radders I'm sure it's nothing but I know how you just be feeling. At my midwife appointment she asked me a million health questions and one was about vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. She stopped and looked at me when I said no (same answer for all questions!) Told me I was 'lucky' as it's quite common. Do you feel crampy?
PS we only really started dtd regularly again around 12 weeks, Stupid but I was terrified of harming the baby! I had zero interest anyway.. As for lack of symptoms, I've been the same the whole time. I said this to the midwife and she laughed and told me to embrace it and to start enjoying myself! I still can't though..
So many promising symptoms everyone!!! I'm very excited for July.

I've been doctors this morning - had a good cry with her! She said to go back on Monday if it's still there and she will send me for emergency scan to check things before holiday.
I'm sure it's nothing

I feel sick and tired today. Just got back in to bed. Feel bad as its OH birthday and supposed to be at a bbq later for him. I just want to curl up in a ball!

Ps symptoms didn't kick in for me until about 5 weeks I think it was. People are different. I think it's very difficult to relax in pregnancy - I'm same as you really. It's such a roller coaster.

Parney you are so lucky!! Pregnancy must really agree with you :)

I am excited about July BFPs too .... Thinking we will have some more

Oh Radders sometimes a good cry is all you need. Hope brown cm is gone, sounds like you're in good hands doctor will look after you. It could still be related to the vanishing twin syndrome.
Thanks I've never thought of the no symptoms as a good thing, I love the way you've put it! Made my day, hopefully I'll have good news at scan today! Nervous! Take care and enjoy your OH's birthday x

Parney sorry I forgot you had a scan. Please let us know how you get on and send us a pic xxx good luck xxx

Say hello to little parney for us.aren't you lucky hun, no symptoms, enjoy!!!

Hope you are feeling better radders,and enjoy the bbq

Am in bed with nothing to do. It's gonna be a long weekend. Xx

If I didn't have the bad cramps then I'd be tempted to test. Always get headache with AF so I'm not feeling positive. If it's coming i want it now so it's over and done with.

Radders- shame this is happening causing u to worry. Really really hope it's nothing. How are u feeling now? Has it stopped? Xx

Parney/ hope your next scan goes well xx

Mimi- why are u in bed? Hope you are well X

Gone from diarrhoea this am. To constipation and pain trapped wind tonight. Joyful!! Felt terrible about 3 o clock today and had to go for a lie down. Hoping these are all good signs...

Parney hope the scan went well.

Thanks all I had a brilliant experience. So much has changed in six weeks! It's a real baby!!!! Sonographer was amazed at how active baby was, we have loads of pics but they're not great as couldn't get it to stay still. Surreal to see all the somersaults and stretching! I'd mentioned to DH this week that I thought I could feel tiny flutters, but was sceptical until I saw the jumps today. This pic is where we left it, baby turned back to us so I felt the show was over!!
Mimi I hope you found something to do today and that AF is still absent footprints. How was the birthday Radders?
PS that was me with the dodgy tum, I upped my water intake in week six and that seemed to solve it. Helps the muscles avoid becoming dehydrated!
Sorry AF came Summer.

Ahhhh parney that sounds so incredible!! Can't wait for a scan.

I will try increasing water thank you x

Wow Parney! Lovely active little munchkin there.
Girls I can't believe what's just happened, I have to share...
My lovely twin sister, who has been a confident during my TTC agony, has just been whatsapp'ing to say she has been totally knocked for six by a positive pregnancy test, and what's more, is already 10 weeks along!!
They just had one 'accident' back in May! She had, what she thought was, a very light period, but then realised she hadn't come on again since! She is very happy as she was planning TTC soon anyway, I'm so delighted for her but completely envious that this 'just happened' for her. I don't at all feel sad for myself about it, just that the pressure is on more now, as I desperately want to be preggers together. Another testament to being relaxed and not trying to try as being the best strategy!

Ohh parney,its always breathtaking seeing the little bean. Glad he was up and about for you!!
Hugs tee,I know the pressure it's put on you. Everything crossed you can get to share your news soon.how I wish I was one of the "I didn't know I was pregnant" ladies too.saves from all the emotional rollercoaster.
Thanks footprints am fine now just had nothing to do. Now I'm up at odd hours argh!!any more af symptoms? Hope the witch stays away!!!!
No af yet just dull cramps(constantly knicker checking) I'm driving myself insane
