@newtolineofduty I'm hoping the same for me! But if I continue to bleed I won't worry now unless it's very heavy. So surreal! Seeing that little flicker and I just fell in love! Such a long way to go and so I'm trying to stay grounded and not get so attached but it's so much harder now!

@MrsRosaline ohhhh keeping everything crossed for you!! You've got a very good shot this month I think! When do you think you will test? Xx

newtolineofduty · 23/12/2021 19:51

@hoola23 totally understand but the risk of anything bad happening at that point, now you've seen a great heartbeat, is teeny tiny!!! I would prep yourself for more bleeding but you know now what the cause is so hopefully won't be as scary and you can always book another scan for reassurance between now and the 12 week scan! X

MrsRosaline · 23/12/2021 19:54

@hoola23 I hope so! Fertility friend is predicting my period for New Year's Day! Which seems LIGHTYEARS away 😩

hoola23 · 23/12/2021 20:34

@MrsRosaline omg that would be such a good new year day if it's positive but let's not tempt fate! Honestly hun it will go SO quick! That time of year always does! When will you test?

@hoola23 I'm so so pleased for you hun, that must have been such an overwhelming moment!! So glad that it was a positive one and that they detected a strong heartbeat 😊 hopefully your pregnancy gets easier from here on.

hoola23 · 23/12/2021 20:49

@plantbasedlondoner thanks lovely! Me too! I can't take this drama every 5 mins! 🤣

Merry Christmas everyone!! I can't tell if the cramping I've got is pregnancy related or because I've eaten too much food already today 🤣 Hope you all have fantastic days xx

hoola23 · 25/12/2021 14:30

@MrsRosaline 🤣 merry Christmas lovely! Well let's hope there's something cooking in your house aside from turkey 🤣🤣🤣 enjoy it, I cannot stomach any food today and I bloody love Xmas dinner 😭 hope everyone has a fab day ❤️

newtolineofduty · 25/12/2021 23:01

@hoola23 I'm the totally opposite and eating everything (savoury!) in sight!!!!

@MrsRosaline ooh fingers crossed about the cramping! Around the right time for implantation too!

I'm sharing a bed with DD tonight-why do children insist on sleeping diagonally!? X

MrsRosaline · 26/12/2021 11:24

Haha I got my husband to sleep with DD last night 😅 @newtolineofduty

7DPO and resisting the urge to test. We are going away for two nights today and I did consider bringing some tests but thought if I didn't bring any then at least there's nothing I can do!

newtolineofduty · 26/12/2021 17:09

Yes that's a good idea @MrsRosaline! Hope it helps distract you abit! X

hoola23 · 26/12/2021 17:16

@MrsRosaline I'd try and resist if you can as 9dpo could still give a false negative! How do you feel in yourself, any symptoms? Xx

hoola23 · 28/12/2021 19:16

Hey everyone! Hope you've all had a lovely Xmas! My sickness has now hit another level and this is day 4 of being completely bed bound! 😭

OP posts:
MrsRosaline · 28/12/2021 21:59

Oh sounds rough @hoola23! Are you taking any of the sickness medications? I tested today it was negative. But it was an evening wee, with only an hour hold and I am only 9DPO so I'm sort of hoping it changes..

I was half wondering If there's anyone left on here tracking ovulation and TTC anymore 😂

Aims1991 · 29/12/2021 10:19

@hoola23 oh god that sounds awful. I've not been sick but it's the exhaustion that's killing me, I literally can't force myself to do anything.

CShandy01 · 29/12/2021 11:33

Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a lovely
Christmas!! Sorry I've been away for a few days. Covid completely wiped me out for a while, then we were getting everything ready for Christmas for DD and then we went down to my mum's on Boxing Day for 3 nights. On our way home now and we're all shattered 😂😂

My sickness has kicked in now, seems like it just bubbles away in the background all the time. Different to DD as I used to throw up in the morning and sometimes in the evening and feel better, but I'm adamant it's another girl.

@hoola23 I'm so pleased you're scan has gone well and you've seen little one and heard the heart beat. That is always such a huge relief as it's like the first milestone. Never ceases to amaze me when you see it there for the first time. I'm also so sorry to hear that your sickness hasn't gone down - I'm wondering if it's related to the two eggs that were released? If you hadn't have had the scan I would have bet money on you having twins!

@MrsRosaline how are you feeling today?? Any symptoms?? How many DPO are you?

@Aims1991 @newtolineofduty @plantbasedlondoner how are we all doing?

MrsRosaline · 29/12/2021 12:28

@CShandy01 10DPO and BFN. Guess I'm out this month - again. Can't believe it. Gutted.

newtolineofduty · 29/12/2021 12:29

@CShandy01 lovely to hear from you! Glad you had a lovely Xmas! How many weeks are you?

All good here thank you. 16 weeks now and I have popped so I look pregnant and can wear maternity stuff now rather than just looking fat! We have a private scan next week to find out baby's gender but I'm 90% boy!!!! I'm desparate to see them again and itching to get organised eg with DDs clothes etc! Xxx

Aims1991 · 29/12/2021 13:36

@CShandy01 doing good thanks, suffering really bad exhaustion and struggling with it. Get some pains every now and then but nothing much.

hoola23 · 30/12/2021 10:27

@MrsRosaline don't give up just yet! Have you done any more tests?

OP posts:
MrsRosaline · 30/12/2021 10:45

No I haven't @hoola23. OvuSense actually confirmed my ovulation as 21 Dec, which is a day behind what I thought. I'll test tomorrow when I'll either be 11DPO/12DPO. How are you feeling? X

newtolineofduty · 30/12/2021 11:08

@MrsRosaline it's so hard not to test early but it's such a head f* x have you noticed any symptoms this month? Xxx

MrsRosaline · 30/12/2021 11:16

Yeah I know I just figured it would show by now @newtolineofduty. Yes I've been having lots of pulling feelings low down on the left but could be anything. Also heart palpitations which are symptoms for me. But I'm also wondering because I ovulated late (CD20/21) and I was sick that month so I'm guessing I'm probably out. I mean is it even OK to ovulate so late!?

plantbasedlondoner · 30/12/2021 15:56

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and a bit of a rest.

@CShandy01 I'm doing well thanks hun, I think I am due to ovulate in the next few days so trying to DTD regularly. Indulged a bit too much at Christmas and was inactive all month due to catching Covid so feel a bit like a puffer fish! How are you doing?

I found myself getting so so broody over Christmas so quite happy it is over and looking forward to keeping busy over January and distracting myself!
