Hippychic79 · 11/04/2017 12:55

So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

So af arrived, and PMA is in short supply but three good things are:

  1. It's sunny again!
  2. Having a lovely steak salad for dinner tonight.
  3. My DH is great and we have a lovely life even without babies in it.
Hippychic79 · 19/04/2017 09:21

Flowers flash sorry to hear af arrived ... completely understand how pma destroying she can be .... love your 3 things though ... I always think the same as your #3 .... grateful that I have a dp that loves me and looking forward to when he proposes to me in June .... I hate writing my dp on here ... I am a great believer in marriage ... sadly my first one didn't work out but it's made me realise how much better my relationship is with my dh to be 😝

aw sorry @Flashinthepan doing 3 things today on cd1 is bloody hard so well done chic. i think cd1-4 we should all be allowed a holiday, to somewhere sunny without people around, i'm sure crime rates would go down if we were on a beautiful deserted island for those 4 days #lovely3things xx

Moo31 · 19/04/2017 09:34

Eek June is almost "next month" @hippy Grin

@Flash so sorry she arrived. Bitch. Flowers

@Bella I saw a midwife at my gp surgery first but should have seen gp first apparently to get a referral to the hospital so I did things arse about face! Just meant I had to wait longer to get a date for 12 week scan. So it is great you are getting the ball rolling! I used to take a daily antihistamine, not a strong one though just an over the counter one but i haven't actually noticed a difference. Hopefully they can sort you out with something! Maybe something natural you could try?

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 10:04

Morning Ladies. Loving the positive vibes Bella

Here's my list:

  1. I have the most gorgeous DS who is an absolute angel and I can't wait to pick him up from nursery tonight
  2. Me and DH made up last night and had fab spontaneous make up sex Wink
  3. Today is my Friday (I only work 3 days a week) so I'm looking forward to 4 days of fun with DS

Flash sorry that AF arrived, but you are now one cycle closer to your BFP Flowers

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 10:05

Also, does anyone feel like it's been ages since Moo and Dolly got BFP's?

It's crazy, feels like it was months ago and you should be halfway through your pregnancies by now! Where is this year going?

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:11

ohhh @Hippychic79 how exciting, an engagement on the horizon! is he planning it for when you're away your hols? how romantic is that? #loveisintheair #megapumpagethatnight 💍

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:13

thanks @Moo31 a BFP should come with an instruction manual shouldnt it? do this first, that later etc! i have friends and family with children but i think they'll be frightened to tell me too much as i'm quite the independent type BUT i don't feel that just now at all, i'm feeling very needy actually #weirdhormones x

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:14

haha @ArchiesMamaBird brilliant that you've made up. don't get me wrong, sometimes a good wee fight is good for the soul but making up is even better!! #megapumpage #loveyour3things

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:15

and YES feels like Dolly and Moo should be thinking about schools already xxx

Ohb0llocks · 19/04/2017 10:23

Yay bfps!!!! Congrats guys!

How far are all the grads now?

8 weeks 6 days here. First mw apt next week at 9+5

At least it'll seem like a shorter wait until the scan. Speaking of which... someone says hi! Apologies if I've posted that before!

Those still due a BFP, honestly I can't recommend a relaxed month enough, and I'm sure I'm not the only one!

Sorry Hippy I missed your post about your DP proposing. But how bloody exciting!! Hopefully you'll have lots to celebrate that month with a little #babyhippy in your tummy Smile

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 10:25

Omg Ohb how bloody gorgeous!!

Dollydaydream2829 · 19/04/2017 10:47

Haha ladies, it actually feels like I should be onto my second pregnancy already yet here I am..... 10 weeks & 3 days down 😂😂 In all seriousness, like moo I'm also starting to feel a lot better and 13 days to go until my scan so I'm starting to enjoy this and will do even more so after a (hopefully) successful 12 week scan!

ohb - your scan is amazing!! You'll be excited now you've seen the wee babe?!

Sorry AF got you flash - Hopefully next cycle will be yours!

Omg hippy - you have so much to look forward to!! I loved when DH proposed to me! I was riding high for ages after! Do you know how he's going to do it?

bella I went to see my GP first then the GP booked me in with midwife. It was lovely to have it confirmed by them!
My three things:

  1. As mentioned earlier, the sickness is beginning to leave and I'm starting to enjoy food again! I loved my eggs & avocado toast this morning.
  2. It's 17 days until we go on holiday to Italy and I'm super excited for sunshine.
  3. It's my weekend tomorrow. Thank f**k it's friday Wednesday....
ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 11:01

Haha Dolly I read that as "I was riding him for ages after!" #yesihaveadirtymind #OVisonitswayandimhorny

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 11:04

HOLD UP... i thought you didn't get a scan til 12wks? what's going on? gotta get me a bit of that. know i'm 4wks and 2 days but still, wee scan in a months time would be lovely (if for the right reasons that is)! #jealousbella

loving the 3 things posts ladies #PMAmotherfuckers 😂

also jealous of all the part timers and holidayers!!! Oh wait.... i get to use all my years AL before mat leave in december YALDY #stilljealousthough

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 11:05

fab scan @Ohb0llocks #soexciting #eeeek

@Hippychic79 i loved getting engaged,
first time i'd ever really been in the limelight, and dahhhling they haven't been able to get me out of it since hhahaha #suchadiva. mega excited for you xxx

Ohb0llocks · 19/04/2017 11:05

It was a private reassurance scan @BellaMoon at 7 weeks 3 days!

Depending on your area there's often places that do deals, mine was only £30!

Saw and heard a lovely heartbeat, which hopefully is a good sign of things to come!

Moo31 · 19/04/2017 11:11

@ohb your scan pic is fab! Thanks for sharing!

@Bella I know I feel so clueless about the whole thing! Oh bought me "What To Expect When You're Expecting" - it's a bit like an instruction manual haha! I freaked out for the first few weeks then calmed down after we had our early scan but can feel myself freaking out again coming up to 12 week scan #rollercoaster #screamifyouwannagofaster

Lol we might actually have discussed schools haha! You'll all know the history of religion in NI and oh and I are "mixed" so I think we'll go for integrated education which limits our choices. Jeepers we're getting ahead of ourselves aren't we! Haha!

I'm 10+5 today. Scan is next Wed. Eek! So not quite halfway but approaching the one third mark!

Moo31 · 19/04/2017 11:14

@Bella we got our early scan here - www.ultrasound-direct.com/mobile/babybond-pregnancy-scans

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 12:00

So according to my EWCM I think I might be due to OV in the next few days. Which would give me a due date of 2nd week of January. I had a bad time giving birth to DS so I've been told I'll have to have planned C sections in future which they tend to perform at 39 weeks (I think) which would mean baby would be born first week of January. Which is only a few days after DS's birthday. What's the betting that this will be our month and we'll just be mega skint in Dec/Jan for the rest of our lives? Grin

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 12:10

sounds bout right @ArchiesMamaBird haha. be careful what you wish for lol #happypumpage

Itsjustaphase84 · 19/04/2017 12:12

@AmandaP86x hope you are feeling better soon.relax as much as you can. Could be ov. Ithink I also ov early on some cycles. I can get ewcm from CD9

@Moo31 no GP appointment yet as I remember from last time they won't even book me in until I'm at least 8 weeks I guess I'm 4+2 based on LMP.

I'll book it in in another month. This part of pregnancy doesn't feel real until appointments/scans etc.

Hippychic79 · 19/04/2017 13:44
