@Danni744 defo BFP congrats! First month trying too wow I wish I was that lucky 😩✨

Danni744 · 17/06/2021 14:25

Thank you so much ✨I’m just really quite petrified because I just need this one to stick until the end so I’m going to be on edge I already feel weird speaking as if this is a confirmed pregnancy. Really sending the biggest tonne of baby dust your way ✨ I recently lost two stone and have just reached the marker for the maximum weight I should be for someone this height so now my bmi is healthy. I think this may have helped me as we tried before and wasn’t successful and after that I just couldn’t keep trying I needed a long break xx

@Danni744 congrats on the weight loss too that's great and you're hard work has been rewarded 😊🤞🏻✨

LeeTTCRainbow · 17/06/2021 14:49

@Danni744 i can see your test message.

LeeTTCRainbow · 17/06/2021 14:52

@Danni744 oh wow that's not faint very clear, congratulations!!!!

i really hope i can follow suit but I'm losing faith for this month, my only positive AF hasn't turned up today, i'm 14dpo will take another test saturday.

Catipepo · 17/06/2021 15:49

@Danni744 Definitely clear! Really hoping for you xx Well done on your weight loss too- great achievement.

I'm trying not to stress myself out too much. Took a test yesterday and BFN, but still early. Am due on Sunday/Monday so will hold out a bit. Had a teeny bit of spotting today but this can be usual in lead up to AF. I think I need to hide my tests elsewhere and not keep them in the bathroom to avoid spontaneous testing!

Hdujsjdjdbru · 17/06/2021 19:21

@Danni744 this is amazing news! It's definitely a clear line. Fingers crossed for a sticky bean for you xxx

TheDots · 17/06/2021 20:03

@LeeTTCRainbow thank you so much! Keeping everything crossed that this one sticks. How're you feeling today? x

@Danni744 that's DEFINITELY a positive!!!! Congratulations!!!! How're you feeling? x

Hdujsjdjdbru · 17/06/2021 20:19

@TheDots sorry I missed yours - congratulations to you! How exciting!

Danni744 · 17/06/2021 23:19

@justwant2beamum thank you ✨x

@LeeTTCRainbow thank you, that’s great news that AF hasn’t turned up yet! Fingers crossed she stays clear for you! BABY DUST BABY DUST ✨

@Catipepo thank you, In preparation I ordered/received my ovulation strips this week and in with the pack I had hgc tests. It’s too hard not to test when you have the pack beside the toilet. Please try not to stress (ok I can’t say that as I’m the biggest stresspot) BABY DUST ✨

@Hdujsjdjdbru thank you! How are you feeling? X

@TheDots thank you, I’m good thanks. Today I’ve done nothing but really crave crunchy carrots and bowl full of veggies! I know people say it’s too early for signs like this, but it seems to really happen! Stomach pains…sort of like moments of tearing but otherwise feeling good. Really hoping I don’t suffer like I did with my last full pregnancy, I had hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) until my final trimester and it was torture. How about you are you ok? X

✨Sticky beans (I like that saying so thanks for that)
& Baby dust ✨

11DPO today, still having a bit of spotting, only noticeable when wiping.
However, this also happened this morning! Am still super cautious but fingers crossed ☺️

1DPO tomorrow 2week wait
Danni744 · 18/06/2021 09:32

@Catipepo OML congratulations!!! Implantation spotting!!!!

Danni744 · 18/06/2021 09:46

Done another test and it’s still got two lines. Ordered a baby grow to put with the test to announce the news to him. It’s burning me not to share the news but loved your idea to announce on Fathers Day x

✨Baby Dust to everyone ✨

Catipepo · 18/06/2021 09:51

@Danni744 Aw same, I even forked out on a digital one as I'm not sure if he'll know how to read the others!

I want to tell everyone and no one at the same time 🙈

Sticky beans and baby dust for all of us I hope 🥰

Yas34 · 18/06/2021 10:05

Congrats on all the BFPs ladies! I hope I can join this tread.

My husband and I have been trying for 4 months now, and I have had normal ovulation for the last 2 months after taking hormone management medication.

I’m currently on 10 dpo, I’ve not been tempted to test as I know it’s simply too early. I am keeping a journal of my TWW symptoms, DTD days and ovulation tests.

I’m not charting yet. Does anyone here recommend this method? I’m a healthy person with a good BMI, non smoker and regular at my gym. Taking pregnancy vitamins to increase our chances, but willing to try charting if it helps!

Wishing you all healthy pregnancies and more BFPs to come!!

Danni744 · 21/06/2021 07:02

@Yas34 morning!!! I’ve never tried charting? Is that when you take your temperature ? I’ve heard this is meant to really be a decent way to monitor your body. Baby Dust your way ✨✨

@Catipepo so how I said I’d bought a vest to tell him the news….I hadn’t..I bought scratch cards! Why I thought I’d bought a vest is beyond me?!

I got so scared yesterday had period pains all day but it’s passed now

BABY DUST AND STICKY BEANS ✨✨

LeeTTCRainbow · 21/06/2021 12:14

Morning girls,

@Catipepo massive congratulations, fingers crossed for a sticky bean and happy and healthy pregnancy.

How did all your Father's day announcements go? I'm gutted i couldn't surprise my fiancé, and bless him he thought i was planning too until i had to break news to him AF arrived Saturday morning.

How are you all feeling????

my AF has come with a vengeance, cramps have been none stop since Saturday morning and been so so so heavy. hoping in next few days will ease off and can get back excited for tracking ovulation again.

Catipepo · 25/06/2021 10:40

@LeeTTCRainbow Thank you so much. Apparently announcement wasn't such a surprise and he knew because I never normally lock the bathroom door 😂
How're you doing? Hope your cramps have eased up !

I've been so exhausted this week feel like I've been so useless as work, might need to tell my manager soon as I'm sure they're wondering what's going on!

@Danni744 How have you been getting on this week??

@Yas34 Welcome!! Sorry, I don't have much advise on charting either. How has your week been, when are you planning to test?

Danni744 · 25/06/2021 11:13

@LeeTTCRainbow Hey so my Father’s Day announcement happened the night before! I got scared and anxiety started kicking in so I wanted him to know so I could vent lol!

Sorry to hear you have had an extra hard AF xx

@Catipepo Lol now you mention it….our bathroom door is rarely shut as well! I’m getting on ok thank you, but hayfever is killing me.it’s preventing me from sleeping because it’s triggering my asthma and two nights ago I had an asthma attack so I’m in pain now and just exhausted from the lack of sleep. It’s the most severe I’ve ever experienced it effecting driving and normal daily life, as extra as that sounds. But because I’m in my first trimester theres no medication I can have. But Tuesday I have an appointment to revise my asthma medication. So I’m currently walking around with sunglasses on, Vaseline up and around my nose, and having a spoonful of local honey every day. Really struggling to get my uni work done tbh can’t see me completing in time. How about you how are you doing? X

OP posts:
Catipepo · 25/06/2021 11:29

@Danni744 Oh that sounds awful, bless you. Can you get extenuating circumstances and an extension for your work?
Apart from being perpetually tired I'm okay, don't feel too different.
Currently considering whether to book I'm for a reassurance scan. I'm away with some friends around week 10 and they will know something is up if I don't drink at all for the whole weekend- I don't normally drink much but I think turning down a glass of wine with dinner will be suspicious! Am happy to tell them 'early' as they're very close of friends of 20+ years, but think I'd like some certainty first.

Danni744 · 25/06/2021 11:46

I already have extenuating circumstances due to covid so this is the last chance to get it all in !lol! I laugh only because it’s just so messed up I can’t be negative, it will all work out however it works out. Oh that’s a great idea about the scan, is that private booking? I’d love an extra scan I just need to hear a heartbeat and then I think I’ll feel less scared and more excited. That would be lovely to share the news with your friends on the trip 😍 I’m out for a lunch for my friends birthday next week. But it’s a bottomless cocktail brunch!!!! I’m saying I’m on tablets but they already suspect something because I didn’t drink for her actual birthday this Wednesday just gone. I blamed it on being in the week so I didn’t fancy a drink, but it seems anytime you say you’re not drinking, people automatically turn and say ‘ARE YOU PREGNANT?!!!’

OP posts:
Catipepo · 25/06/2021 12:02

Ah no, well I hope you manage to get it all submitted!
Yeah, I was looking at Window to the womb, it’s around £80 for a viability scan which I don’t mind paying as a one off.
Haha people get so suspicious, I’ve reduced my drinking a lot over last few years (not that it was excessive!) as it just gives me anxiety but people will never leave it alone and always assume something else is going on! Bottomless brunch is a hard one! Only so many rounds of antibiotics you can say you’re taking

Danni744 · 25/06/2021 12:44

I think I have a water infection for the bottomless brunch lol! Or a chest infection…That’s great that you managed to recognise and act o a trigger. I also started to cut down last year, then quit for about 4 months this year. I think I’ve noticed I don’t really care for it that much tbh. But usually when I’m out with friends or OH I’m wild so it will definitely be noticed when I’m falling to sleep in my tacos while drinking fizzy water.

£80 is great for piece of mind, I’m planning on a gender reveal this time with a balloon, just in the back garden with my OH and our two boys. They love an excuse for a little ‘party’ so I’m planning on getting them into some baby games and picking blue or pink. I just want to make sure everything really is ok and great before I tell them. Are you planning to find out your gender?

It doesnt rain it pours.
Honestly this last year and this year is cursed for me i swear.

. Engagement ring broke had to have remade in time for wedding
. Covid then cancelled hendo and wedding
. My dad had a scare with his heart thankfully ok.
. Found out pregnant in November then 3 months later missed miscarriage then lead to D&C
. Lack of period and going through all that stress.
. Found out pregnant again in march, then another miscarriage.
. Been trying since and no luck just had AF.
. And now my mums in hospital with a broken back with 9 weeks to go before wedding.

Long story short my mum had a accident last night fell off her horse, she's ok in herself luckily just in alot of pain, but turns out fractured her back in 2 places and broken her leg, wheelchair will be needed, and recovery is 5/6 months i just cant believe it, she's so upset about it all and more so about the wedding situation.

Just cant believe so much bad luck can happen to one person.
Happy Friday.
