Apologies for those I have forgot to tag - please add yourself :)

@Babyghirl Awww lovely to see a 3D scan of your precious Rainbow💗 Not long to go now! So excited for you!!! Xx

@MrsF111 Deeply sorry for your loss! Yes, I got referred after my 3rd miscarriage and the gynaecologist initially recommended progesterone after bfp, which didn't work for me but has worked for several other women I know and then they recommended progesterone after ovulation so I took it from around 2 days after I ovulated and now I have my precious, healthy, Rainbow baby girl who is 6 months old. I hope you find the path to your Rainbow baby very soon! Sending loads of love xxxx

@Angelmama1121 Congratulations on the birth of your lovely Rainbow baby boy!!! I had gestational diabetes too. Hope you're enjoying the newborn bubble and are managing to somehow get some rest. Lots of love xxxx

@H0peing

Now 33+2 weeks so getting there, I'm just so wanting it to be over now and baby here, getting to the fed up uncomfortable stage lol, got another app on Wed so hoping they have a plan for baby to come how's you xx

So I'm 32+1 today and I've had a positive Amnisure test so been admitted as I'm slowly losing my waters it would seem.
Lost my mucus plug on Tuesday and hoped it would regenerate but had some dampness and here we are. I've also had COVID in the last few weeks so don't know if it's related to that or just my sheer luck.
Plan is steroids and antibiotics and bed rest and hopefully get him fit for c section delivery.

@PeanuttyButter oh my goodness sending you love and strength! How are things?

We are still in nicu with our son, 4 weeks now!

@PeanuttyButter
Snap I'm 35 weeks my waters went at 2.45 this morning on antis on a ward now, how is things with you.

@Annny27 how's baby doing xx

@Babyghirl oh no, hope you're both doing ok.
I'm home now but they are looking after me. About 4 appointments each week with lots of different monitoring. I had the steroids and I'm on the antibiotics.
Had some contractions on Tuesday on the CTG but they settled. He's staying put right now but the anxiety is real! I know exactly how you feel.
Good news is baby is at a decent gestation and if born now will be fine. We are trying to get to 34 at least (1 week to go) but if he comes he comes. They have given us a tour of the NICU in preparation.

Private message me lovely if you want to chat or have any questions

@Annny27 any signs you will be home soon?

@PeanuttyButter
How on earth can there be so much water lol, mine is none stop, evertime I stand there's more, thought 1 qush and that would be it lol, glad your being looked after, like after all we been through to get here and now this lol how u feeling tithing yourself xx

Sending you all soooo much love! Seriously though…… why can none of it ever be easy for us??!!! 😫 so truly harsh!!! 😐
Stay strong lovelies xxxxxx

Thinking of you @Annny27 💛

@Babyghirl when my waters went they continued to leak until baby was born! Apparently they keep replenishing, and leaking once broken. I didn't have the dramatic gush. Just a little pop and a small leak and then continued to leak water for the rest of the day. Really strange sensation feeling like you're permanently wetting yourself 😳

Good luck to you both!

I hope this is okay to post. I haven't been on mumsnet in a long time, and this is a new account but I just clicked in here on the off chance as I posted a few times last year. I just wanted to say how amazing it is to see you're pregnant and doing well @Babyghirl I'm so so so happy for you. Got all my fingers crossed for an easy birth (just seen your waters have broken a little early).

I came on here because I'm pregnant for the 5th time after 4 MC's and it's given me so much hope to see how your story has turned out x

@Kelb79
Never an easy journey x

@Fizzl

@CakeFace31
Awwww congratulations, this is my 5th pregnancy after 4 miscarriages, I won't say its been easy cause that would be a lie, I won't settle to I know baby is OK, look after yourself and take each day as it comes xxx

Congratulations @Babyghirl I'm so happy for you. Hope you get home soon!

Congratulations @Babyghirl i was on this thread for a while and like to check on you all now and again. So pleased for you it has been a long hard road for you but you were always so positive on this thread and kind to others who came and went while you waited for your precious rainbow and I’m so pleased you have her. I’m currently cuddling sleeping DS 7months. Hope everyone who is or has been on this thread gets their happy ending x

@justwantobeamum
Awk thank you been a long road to finally come out the other end, to say I'm over the moon is an understatement, I'm besotted with her, and can't wait to get her home and start mummy hood properly, awk 7 months already where has the time went xx

@Babyghirl HUGE congrats!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 that is the best news!! Enjoy every minute! I’m so happy for you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hey everyone, I’ve got some questions about progesterone - I know a couple of you had success using it after OV….

we’re having a little break from all the IVF treatment at the mo so giving it a real go naturally this cycle.
best effort we’ve ever put in tbh 🤣🤣
we’ve covered every other day since day 5, I started LH testing 2 days ago, yesterday was predicted OV based on last cycle but that was really early. I got a peak yesterday so we DTD yesterday and today and we’re planning tomorrow then a day off then an extra one 🤣
I’ve been using every trick in the book to help too 🤣🫣

I just realised that I have a full prescription of progesterone pessaries that were supposed to be for the transfer cycle that we never got to…. I’m thinking about using them 🤔

what I want to know is….
should I use them without having been prescribed them for this stage?? Or is it best I don’t???
if I do, what is the dosage and when should I take them?
also when should I stop??

TIA lovelies, really hope you’re all doing well ❤️❤️❤️
