Waiting to TTC Graduates Thread

[rollerskaterdata]

Hi lovelies!

A thread for the graduates of those who were waiting to TTC and are now actively trying, or very soon to be actively trying! Apologies if I've forgotten anyone or tagged the wrong people, please do join in or join later as necessary! Hoping we can continue to support and keep each other sane in this TTC madness!

@rollerskaterdata good luck! Fingers crossed it does the trick for you. Keep us updated!

A very small hint of one. You can see it more in certain clothes than others and I don't think you'd pay much attention if you didn't know. It feels weird for me as I've always been very slim but it's only going to get bigger so I better get used to it!

I have my 16w appointment in a few weeks, do you get to hear the heartbeat?

@rollerskaterdata omg!! Keep us updated! X

@dottydally @cupcakesandglitter I will, although I have a feeling it won't work and I'm still going to be pregnant for a couple weeks yet 😂😩

@dottydally I think it depends on the area, some midwives will listen for a heartbeat at 16w, others won't because baby is still tiny and it can make mum worry if they can't find one. Did your midwife mention at your booking appt if she'd listen in?

Me and DH are officially TTC now! I'm on CD10 and due to ovulate about day 20 so not much exciting going on here. But I very much hope I'll back in a few weeks with good news! How is everyone? Any sign of baby @rollerskaterdata ?

@mussie yaye! I hope this is your month hun 😊 no news from me, 39+1 and still hanging on despite latent labour for the last 2 weeks. Getting increasingly irritable and fed up by the day 😂🙄

How is everyone?

Bloody heck, I've just been admitted to hospital after another episode of reduced movements.

At 39+1 I don't think I'm leaving without a baby

Yaaaay @mussie join the club 😂😂 xx

Eeeeeek @rollerskaterdata good luck!!!!! Xx

@rollerskaterdata oh best of luck!

@mussie yay! Have fun 😂

@rollerskaterdata hope everything goes well.

Good luck @rollerskaterdata !!!!

@rollerskaterdata good luck lovely!!! 🤞🏼❤️

@roller gd luck!
Hi.
Is it okay if I join? I have been reading through and u all sound amazing.
I had the implanon removed on the 23rd of April. (I didn’t have periods on it) I have no idea if I have ov or not. Have been trying to play it cool and just have fun (wink) but now i have no idea what’s going on. I am getting some cramps, so thought AF was coming but it’s hasnt. I’m so tried I crash on the sofa in seconds. The last two days my hips have been aching and I have been feeling hungry then sick as soon as I eat and then keep feeling that way till I’m hungry again. Last night in bed I felt a bit dizzy and hot so thought AF was def coming but this morning nothing. Took a cheepie test and it was clearly a BFN. Just need af to coming so I know where I am at.

Thanks for the well wishes ladies, but...

Bloody typical. I was admitted yesterday and told I would be induced this morning - and I'm currently lying in bed at home! I was sent home because the labour ward is super busy and they don’t have the room or the midwives to induce me now. So now I have to wait for a phone call for when they have space, might be later tonight, might be tomorrow, who knows. My husbands mum has come from London to babysit our son so has given up her weekend, and I told him I was going to come home with his baby sister and then I didn't 😳 Plus I spent time mentally preparing for it to happen and then it didn't (especially as I'm bloody terrified of being induced given my horrific past experience). I know it’s not their fault and that they need to induce people safely so they can have one to one care, and take care of the women who are actually in labour but I’m gutted now ☹️

@rollerskaterdata that sucks. Makes you think the induction can't be that urgent to them, if they'd send you home indefinitely! Hopefully you get a call back soon and you can get the process going. Are you ordering a large curry in the meantime 😂

@mussie I know right! I keep being told I am priority and number 1 on the list, just need that one space to open up. I've tried EVERYTHING and this baby doesn't want to come out! I've had 3 unsuccessful sweeps, eaten hot curry and other very spicy foods (that didn't do anything apart from chain me to the toilet ), sex, walking, dancing (!), pineapple, bouncing on my birthing ball...she's too comfy!

@rollerskaterdata sorry to hear they sent you home! But hopefully you can bank a few more restful hours sleep before the chaos begins

I take back all I said about not having a bump. Seems I went to sleep and it appeared overnight! Cue a mad dash for some maternity clothes

Thank you for the well wishes ladies, it didn't take too long for the call to come. I'm currently on the CTG in a labour room and once they take me off, they'll break my waters and off we go! 😱 really trying hard not to s**t myself about the pain to come, I'm really nervous!!

@dottydally yaye, I always got so excited when I got a proper bump! Enjoy the shopping, one of the nicer parts of pregnancy!

All the best @rollerskaterdata ! Time to serve baby with her eviction notice 😂 enjoy all the newborn snuggles x

Glad you got back in @rollerskaterdata best of luck!!

Hey ladies, my baby girl Ava was born last night weighing 6lbs 13 oz. She’s perfect and I’m exhausted but we’re both well 😍 hoping to be discharged later today. I can't stop looking at her!

@rollerskaterdata that's wonderful news, massive congratulations to you!

Oh my god @rollerskaterdata bursting with happiness for you, hope you have a speedy recovery and congratulations xxxxxx

Yay huge congratulations @rollerskaterdata!! Hope you're home soon x

@rollerskaterdata congratulations! Sounds wonderful. Hope she settles in well!

Congrats @rollerskaterdata !!! What a lovely name! Give her lots of cuddles and kisses for all of us. X
