@Skl2021 Ahh, so you’re in the same boat as me. I’m heading for a 6 a side footy team 🤣 I thought I’d be disappointed with it being another boy but I was fine and completely fell in love with the little man already.
Yeah, mine are too.. hence the football reveal 🤦🏻‍♀️ I ordered some from Amazon, they were £30 each so not cheap! ££££
I have a little bump which is easily concealed but my trousers were hurting. Buy some and get the wear out of it!

@Nikkic2123 We tried SMEP plan, everyday during FW and the month we got pregnant we did a few days after. It’s tough going as I could not be bothered and OH felt the same. You’ll get a rest once you get your BFP 🙈 xx

Nikkic2123 · 11/10/2021 19:50

@Nats7504 I tried the SMEP back in Feb. Might give it ago if I’m not pregnant this cycle x
It’s defo tough going but we managed it.
I find now tho that we haven’t DTD much after ovulation, must keep replenishing the swimmers

Skl2021 · 11/10/2021 20:41

@Nats7504 yes outrun by boys here 🙈 deep down I would love a little girl just to experience both sides but if it's a boy then I'm meant to be a boy mum 😂🙌 yes IV been looking for them and seen how dear they are! When are you doing it? And yes I might have to start buying some I'm sure I didn't need maternity clothes this early with my other two 🤣🤦 have u started thinking of names? Xx

@Skl2021 I think that’s completely natural, I would’ve liked to have a girl too to mix up the dynamics in the house a bit. But destined to be a boy mum 💙 my sister has 2 boys too 🤣

Were going to do it on Thursday, it doesn’t arrive until Wednesday and they’re at their dads that night. It’s soo hard keeping it quiet and just saying baby and not he. The ones we ordered have the pink and blue confetti in the pack so could order in advance but we weren’t that organised 🙈

Get yourself a few key pieces. I got leggings, a few long sleeved tops, jumpers and cardigans. Joys of being pregnant in winter! 🥶

We’ve not even thought about names 🙈 We've just sold my house and reserved a new build house together which isn’t going to be ready until Feb/March (not ideal with the baby being due the month we potentially move!!) Hence why this little fella is being neglected 🤣 XX

Nats7504 · 12/10/2021 09:58

@Nikkic2123 it’s tough going but we did it for a few months and made sure we DTD in the run up to and after ovulation. Did your other children take long to conceive?

Nikkic2123 · 12/10/2021 14:45

I had endo trying for my first, took 18 months, ended in mc
It’s then I had endo removed then it took 6 months

For my second it was first month x

Skl2021 · 13/10/2021 15:43

@Nats7504 so weird isn't it how it seems to follow a pattern my partner's side is mainly boys too 🙈 so pricey for a little ball isn't it I best start getting organized 👌 need to decide if we're even having a private scan 🙈 aww that sounds lovely! I would love a new build. We are going to have to move when baby arrives but think we will wait a while longer yet. Nothing decent on the market either atm. I hope your ready for the stress of moving and baby at the same time u must be crazy 🤣🙊 xx

Nats7504 · 15/10/2021 10:25

@Skl2021 they are expensive but the boys loved it 💙 it’s all out in the open now. One was a little disappointed as they wanted a sister but he’s got over it now.

How are you feeling? I love our scan, plus it broke the gap between the 12 and 20 week scan.

We have to move as it’s only 3 bedroom and there’s no way the boys will share at 12 and 14 when baby arrives. Plus, we want to buy somewhere together xx

Skl2021 · 15/10/2021 11:54

@Nats7504 aww so happy it went well for you 💙 awww he wanted it a little sister how cute 💞 they will love a little brother all the rough and tumble when they get bigger! I'm not feeling to bad I have my moments when things get on top of me! But trying to stay positive 🤞 did your ball have confetti or powder? The powder seems to stain and go everywhere but don't know if confetti would have the same effect 🤣🙈 xx

OP posts:
Nats7504 · 15/10/2021 12:29

@Skl2021 It was pretty cute, didn’t think they’d be up for it given their ages but they surprised me! 😊 They are both happy with another lad joining the family, although I’m sure once he arrives they will change their minds 🤣
We had the powder, it did go everywhere but hasn’t stained from what I can tell. I just brushed it off their clothes and made them wear old trainers xx

Nikkic2123 · 16/10/2021 08:08

Hi Girls
Unfortunately, I won't be joining you this cycle. AF has arrived 😭

Skl2021 · 16/10/2021 16:39

@Nikkic2123 sorry to hear that 💕 keep positive and good luck with this new cycle. It will happen 💕 x

Skl2021 · 16/10/2021 16:42

@Nats7504 aww bet it was lovely 💙 yes that's what I was worried about it staining everything 🤣🙈 so yesterday I started bleeding again 😩 this time it was quite a bit and bright red. Made me panic. I don't know what it is with this pregnancy but it's putting me through it 🤦 I rang the hospital and they said they would see me if it got worse or continued. Thankfully it turned pink throughout the day and hardly there again now. I just don't know what's going on 🤔 so worrying just waiting for it to happen again xx

Can we please be cycle buddies I'm not on CD2 x
Nikkic2123 · 16/10/2021 19:23

Oh yes, of course @Lozzie118
I’ve just made a promise to myself that I’m not opk testing this cycle, I’m going to listen to my body, follow my cm, BD on cycle days 11, 13, 15,16 & 18
I feel good knowing I’ve a plan in place and not testing.
I’ve been known to ovulate cd14-16 so that covers those days xx

Nats7504 · 17/10/2021 18:43

@Skl2021 No way. That must’ve been such a worry. Who said pregnancy was enjoyable. It’s full of anxiety and worry. I don’t think you ever relax. Has it completely stopped? When is your 12 week scan? Xx

Skl2021 · 17/10/2021 19:07

@Nats7504 yes it made me panic I was so scared. Last few times it's been like dark browny pinky but this time was fresh blood and alot more of it. Still there sometimes when I go toilet but it's pink now so might ring epu in the morning and see if there's anything I should do. It was shut over the weekend. My scans next week 😩 when I'm like 13 weeks. I'm getting periody pains aswell. Never had any of this with my previous pregnancies x

Hopefully baby just got bigger all of a sudden and caused it and all is well.
Do you know if it’s a Singleton or twins?

Skl2021 · 17/10/2021 22:33
