@ArjaD how exciting ! Have you looked at private scans as they can attend those :)

ArjaD · 04/06/2020 22:42

@shelly10111 not here in Scotland, even in the private centres you're not allowed to bring anyone 🙁

Hello sweets!
Here a bit quiet as i had the G measles so can't get pregnant, on the 15th i get the remainder and in July we can start again.
My blood came back ok, dr confirmed i am ovulating and looks good so we just need to see what comes back from hubs sperm test and we will be referred to infertility... but first they have to accept his test as they say they still don't do them.
I've had a bit of an awful week, hubs and I are in Spain as my father in law almost died 😞 so we had to come in a rush and are taking care of him and fixing all the house that was all a disaster. My mom has cancer and it's getting worse. And i have a step brother (son of my moms partner when she divorced 26yrs ago) who is in hospital too and drs don't have any hope... it's all just awful and has come all together in a massive pile at the same time. No clue how to handle all the emotions 😞
Lucky i have an awesome husband and he pulls me up...
Anyway... hope you girls are doing good! I've read some scans coming up, exciting times ♥️

ArjaD · 05/06/2020 10:12

@Sungirl11 omg! 😔 That all sounds horrible, bet your mind is all over the place. We're here whenever you feel the need to vent! I'm really hoping to see some more bfps this summer, it's been a while 🤞

NicoleR14 · 05/06/2020 13:59

Hi ladies wee update from me today I started spotting brown this morning I'm on CD16 so I have found it quiet strange and I'm a bit sore with it I'm thinking either af is coming super earlier or maybe still having a clean out.. Who knows! @sungirl11 that sounds awful! @shelly10111 good luck hun it'll be so good to see your wee one growing nicely

@ArjaD @dizzy85 how have you been getting on

ArjaD · 05/06/2020 15:52

@NicoleR14 plodding on. I know I've no reason to complain but I'm finding it a lot harder going than with my first. Exhausted and feeling sick. Some days better than others. Fussy with food too, don't fancy eating meat, could eat my weight in tomatoes and lettuce though. And sweets unfortunately 🙄 But got my scan next Friday so looking fwd to it a lot.

NicoleR14 · 05/06/2020 15:56

@ArjaD that's good then it's good you have your scan booked we still feel all upsides down and now with this today I don't know where I am in my cycle so feeling a bit miserable but what can I do!

ArjaD · 05/06/2020 17:52

@NicoleR14 it's a crappy situation, I'd feel the same if I were you. Will you not get a scan now?

shelly10111 · 05/06/2020 18:25

Thanks @NicoleR14 I found heartbeat today with the Doppler which was amazing so my minds a bit more at ease as had constant anxiety with misscarrying again, @Sungirl11 sounds horrendous! Take time out for yourself and hubby and hope you get through all this :( @ArjaD tell me about it, really struggling but again also just feel too blessed to moan, but the tiredness is another level!

NicoleR14 · 05/06/2020 22:14

@ArjaD no they won't scan me now but I've been quiet sore with the brown spotting today and I know it can't be implantation because we had only dtd 2 days ago and it's impossible to have implanted already so I'm thinking I have something a bit more serious going on and if it continues into Monday I will call the gp again but it's going from very light to just medium light it's not heavy but it is brown like dirty blood I'm wondering if there is something lingering as I've been very run down this last week or so taking allergic reactions to everything including my wedding band which I've been so emotional over today because I can't wear them again and now this I need to get to the bottom of this soon! @shelly10111 awww that's wonderful it's good it's put you at ease x

ArjaD · 05/06/2020 22:48

@NicoleR14 jeezo that sounds awful, I don't know why the gp hasn't done a scan way earlier! Could have maybe shed some light on it all by now.

shelly10111 · 06/06/2020 07:22

@NicoleR14 are you up to date with your smear tests? Could also be left over tissue from a very early loss hence the hugely late period, when I miss carried last year at 7 weeks I felt like I had the flu, head ache, stuffed nose, sore everywhere, because it was poisoning me, you shouldn't definitely let doctor know you are bleeding in between cycles, I did last year and had a asap scan incase it was serious xx

NicoleR14 · 10/06/2020 08:17

Hi ladies I didn't call the doctor as it turned into a full force af! Just 9 days after my af finished so I just presumed I had that bleed because of the provera tablets they had given me and this one I had was proper af! I will give them a call to talk about it as I'm still cramping and my sore boobs have came after its finished! I thought after 9 months of being off the implant I would have got to terms with my body but apparently not I have only had 5 cycles during the 9 months! Goodness knows it's horrible but here's to another month of ttc!

OP posts:
ArjaD · 10/06/2020 09:34

@NicoleR14 at least it's a proper af huh, means you can start properly trying again! Oh the stress our bodies can put us through!!!! 😔😔

NicoleR14 · 10/06/2020 19:39

That's it I'm hoping it doesn't decide to show up again in another 9 days I think if I get another bleed this month I will deffo call my gp! How are you getting on @ArjaD

OP posts:
ArjaD · 10/06/2020 21:40

@NicoleR14 fingers crossed it's all back to normal after this!! I'm OK thanks, super shattered. Keep falling asleep which is dangerous with a toddler 😂 nausea is a bit better. Got scan this Friday and actually am bricking it a bit. Hoping baby is OK and what if it's twins 😂😂

ArjaD · 12/06/2020 19:37

Hi all, just thought I'd give a wee update, had my 12 week scan today and all is going well. One wee bouncy Sprout. Due date 25th December for heaven's sake 😁 how is everyone?

shelly10111 · 12/06/2020 20:30

@ArjaD aww how amazing! Mine is next week so we should be due simular times !! Congrats again xxx

Sungirl11 · 12/06/2020 20:54

@ArjaD omg that is sooo cute 🥰🥰
He/she looks great already!! I'm so excited for you, my dad was born on xmas day and is the person i most admire in this world! ♥️
@shelly10111 so excited for you too!! Just a week to go 🥰
@NicoleR14 hope you are ok, at least you are back to normal. Finally!!

I am in Spain, so i thought maybe worth having a private gine appointment. I am all good, my ovaries are perfect i have good egg count etc.
Tomorrow we are taking hubs sperm test to the lab here too... much quick and easier than in the UK sadly...
We will finally have some answers yay! 🔝

shelly10111 · 12/06/2020 20:57

@Sungirl11 amazing news, when I lived in France it was all so much quicker etc, my dad had a major stroke over there too and they saved his life, he would have died in england the doctors over here said so I do love healthcare in Spain and France !! Xx

ArjaD · 12/06/2020 21:12

@Sungirl11 that's great, so glad you can get that Done over there. The peace of mind will help and hopefully it will happen soon for you xxxx 🤞🤞🤞🤞
@shelly10111 yes I think you're not far behind me! You may have a new year's baby 😂😂😂😂

ArjaD · 13/06/2020 08:50

@dizzy85 @Nmew @Bbutterfly how are you all getting on?

Nmew · 13/06/2020 12:55

@ArjaD so glad the scan went well, it’s so nice to see them wriggling about on the screen! A little Christmas baby, how exciting! I’m doing good, turned 24 weeks today and time feels like it’s flying in! Just been spending my time preparing for baby’s arrival.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

NicoleR14 · 13/06/2020 17:11

Aww @ArjaD I'm so happy for you the wee one looks like he/she is growing well! Are you planning to find out the sex?
