Would you say the 3rd test down was my peak? Seems to be getting lighter top one was today. These were alot brighter irl. The picture of one on its own was the third test down before it dryed. How many more days should I DTD? And when would I class 1dpo? Thanks 😁

@Skl2021 Oh no it's horrible isn't it! No matter how much you sleep, you still feel exhausted!
Have you informed the doctors yet?
Yes I'm good thank you! Feel like I'm just getting bigger by the day, my stomach actually aches where it feels like it's stretching 👀 xx

Skl2021 · 31/08/2021 20:02

@Confused678866 yes IV been falling asleep through the day 🤣🙈 yes I phoned today and then a midwife phoned me back and gave me my booking appointment. And I also booked an early scan all for the end of the month 🙌🙊 Oh no u have a fair bit to go yet 🙈 hope it doesn't get to painful! Not looking forward to the big and uncomfortable stage 🤣🤦 xx

@Skl2021 Haha 😆 I'd love a daytime nap, can't remember the last time that actually happened though!
Oh fab!! Haha the ball is rolling 🥰 bet you're glad you're not doing anymore OPK's and DTD aren't you lol.
Yeah I've noticed it today but it doesn't help I've been carrying a clingy toddler around for days and I've caught his cold and bad chest so I think it's from the coughing why my stomach feels like it does!
Haha I know, it does get uncomfortable doesn't it. I'm terrible for fretting about how much weight I'll have to lose at the end of it 🙄 I'm a nightmare lol xx

Skl2021 · 31/08/2021 20:14

@Confused678866 yes seemed so weird talking to a midwife like it wasn't real 🤣🙈 just felt like a fraud like it hasn't sunk in 🤦 haha no it feels so wrong that I'm not doing them!! In desperate to poas!!!! Hard to go cold turkey 🤣 might use my opks 👀 oh no hope your not feeling to bad? Aww don't worry about it u enjoy being pregnant eat what u like 🙄🤣 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 31/08/2021 20:21

@Skl2021 Haha I felt like that too!!
😂😂😂😂 I'm howling here. Desperate to poas !! 🤣🤣
I'm not feeling too bad, just took it out of me the couple of days. My little one is lots better though which is a relief.
I'm trying to be sensible with it though - I am having stuff that I enjoy but then I'm not being greedy with it and I know when to say no! Xx

Skl2021 · 31/08/2021 20:26

@Confused678866 haha don't u laugh at me 🤣 I have an addiction ok!! 🤦 Send help. I'm showing some restraint I haven't bought any more pregnancy tests even though I would love too 🤣🙄 it's just a waste of money tho!! Glad your little one is feeling better hopefully u will soon too 🤞 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/09/2021 09:30

@Skl2021 😂😂😂 I know what you mean about pregnancy tests though! I had to stop after the week of doing them because I was worrying the lines were getting lighter! Then my other half was asking if I was doing anymore and I just said no and stopped!!
Yeah I hope I start to feel better soon because it just seems to ruin you even more when you're pregnant and have a cold! Suppose because you're limited to what you can take 😭😩 xx

Skl2021 · 01/09/2021 15:46

@Confused678866 yes that's what I was worried about taking them and getting lighter so that would worry me even more. IV got really bad achy tummy today don't know what's happening 😩 feel like period pains 🤦 how u feeling today xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/09/2021 18:41

@Skl2021 I was like that in the first few weeks too, I think it's all normal. Lots of stretching etc going on! I'm okay, just feel a bit drained, hoping the cold disappears soon 🤞🏻
Me and partner trying to think of places to go and take our little one as I desperately need a day out somewhere soon 😩 so waiting for kids to go back to school and will do a day in the week at some point! The zoo is an option for me as it's down the road and we don't live too far from Cadbury World so thinking of doing that.. I know it's indoor but I can wear a mask and hopefully go when it's less busy! Xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 09:58

@Confused678866 hi how u doing hope your feeling a bit better 🤞 sorry I went m.i.a 🤣 kids back to school and I was in and out of work and they have both started football so IV had 2x Training and matches. Gone a bit hectic here. And I also can't stay awake past 8ish now 🙈 what is happening to me?!?!? I also woke up to brown spotting this morning 😩 so now I'm trying not to freak out 😬 got periods pains aswell. Trying to stay calm! Might need to buy some more tests xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 10:27

@Skl2021 Hey, I'm a bit better thanks! Oh wow, sounds like life has been hectic for you.
Haha yeah the exhaustion is unreal isn't it 🙈
Oh well brown blood is usually fine as it's old blood so please try not to stress. I had brown spotting in my last pregnancy further on and when I spoke to midwife, she wasn't even phased. Xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 10:37

@Confused678866 did you manage to sort a day out? Yes I can't remember exhaustion like this 🙈 it's crazy!! Never go to sleep that early. Hope it passes quick 😩 yes I hope it stops trying not to think to much into it I know it happens in alot of pregnancies. If it gets worse obviously I will ring someone and go from there xx

Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 10:50

@Skl2021 We went for dinner the other night, I was so anxious to be out but I really enjoyed it in the end, our little boy was on his best behaviour too 👀😂 so I'll take that!
Saw a friend yesterday and sat in her new garden while the kids played so that was good to catch up too. Hoping to plan a couple of other things while still in second trimester.
Haha I know, it's weird isn't it, it's like exhaustion you've never known! Yes I'm sure it will be fine and it will stop soon 🤞🏻 when is your booking appointment? Xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 10:55

@Confused678866 aww bet that was nice! It will do you good to get out as long as your being careful u don't want to be couped up forever! And bonus that your little one behaved 🙌🙈 my booking appt is 27th September. And my scan is the 24th still ages to go 🤣🤦 Xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 11:08

@Skl2021 Yes it was really nice and I just really needed the change of scenery! Haha yeah he's been really testing boundaries lately so I was shocked that he behaved 😂
Is that your private scan that's booked for the 24th? Xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 11:17

@Confused678866 yes haven't got my 12 week one yet. Half of me wishes I booked it earlier cos I'm sick of waiting but then I won't get to see anything so I need to just be patient 🤦🤣🙈 just feels ages away 😬 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 11:25

@Skl2021 I got sent my 12 week scan date after my booking appointment had happened.
Haha yea I know what you mean.. I put my private one back a few days because of worrying I wouldn't see anything and then I was moaning I had to wait longer 😂
I think I'm going to book a 4D scan as I have no other scans booked now! 🙊 I'm intrigued if baby looks like my little boy too xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 11:28

@Confused678866 yes I was thinking that I would get it after my booking appointment. IL be nearly 9 weeks at booking appt so shouldn't have long to wait until scan! Yes it's booked now so will just have to wait 🤣 need to learn to be patient 🙈 yes definitely get it booked 🙌😁 yours was a bargain price wasn't it? Haha book two 🤔🤣 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 11:36

@Skl2021 Yes that's it! I think I was just over 8 weeks at booking appointment and then 12+5 on scan date.
Haha it's hard to be patient with these things though isn't it 🙊
Yeah I think it's £79 which is pretty good! Will have a look at dates and get one booked 🤭 xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 13:09

@Confused678866 think I'm 8+2 on early scan. Yes get it booked when you thinking off? I don't know when the best time is for them ones xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 19:11

@Skl2021 Oh lovely 🥰
Erm, I was just over 27 weeks with my little boy when we had 4D scan, I think they say any time around then.. if you are too far gone, it's harder to see baby as they're so big xx

Skl2021 · 05/09/2021 20:13

@Confused678866 not ages away then! It will be nice something to look forward too 😁 after 20 weeks gets a bit boring doesn't it with no scans to look forward too. I did get growth scans around 34 weeks last time tho xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 05/09/2021 20:17

@Skl2021 Yeah.. can't believe I'm 22 weeks this week, going so quickly! 😳
Yeah that's true, it feels like a long time doesn't it with no scans etc. I had a couple of growth scans last time too. I think I will book the 4D scan tomorrow, just trying to work out when and make sure I have childcare as I don't trust my little one in a place like that 👀😂 xx

Skl2021 · 14/09/2021 14:09

@Confused678866 how u doing xx
