Preparing to TTC in 2022 part....7?!

[Dreamingof3]

Finally realised that our previous thread was full 🤣 I hope no one minds me starting up a new one!

Can you believe it's been almost a year since this was all started up?!

Found it! Thank you for the tag @Dreamingof3 ! xx

Found it! Thankyou for the tag! Xx

Found it! Thank you! Was going to create one after work if another didn't pop up! 😂

Question has anybody ever had a random BBT spike at around 5DPO? I'm totally aware it's too early for implantation so unlikely to be realted to TTC but it was 0.5C over what is normally my highest BBT. Its dropped back to normal again today, but was rather confused by it! Nothing different in my sleep/day that I can think could have caused it either 🤔🤔

Thank you for the new thread! Hope everyone is doing ok!! I’m on CD9. Going to try and DTD roughly every other day now till the weekend and then possibly both days at the weekend….although we’ve both got a cough and not feeling great, hopefully we’ll have the energy! Great excuse to be on the cough medicine though!

13dpo and still very lightly spotting, it’s day 3 now, it’s still pink and does not go onto my underwear it’s that light, I have no idea what’s happening it’s just frustrating. Also found in super bloated and hungry and weeing a lot, AF is due Monday so planning to wait till then unless this spotting turns into AF, but no sign of her like usual, no cramping or sore thighs …

I hate this not knowing stuff

Thank you.

I saw my consultant yesterday and induction got brought forward to next week. But, she actually phoned me this morning my bile acids have now reached 122 so currently sat in MAU on the CTG. I have cried so much this morning with pure worry and panic.

Ah found it! 😊

sorry I’ve been quiet the past few weeks. Been having a bit of a hard time with various things then AF arrived and I just felt fed up.

Hoping this month will be the one 🤞🏻 How’s everyone else doing?

@PinkButtercups sending a virtual hand hold, I hope everything looks good today and they get another week cooking ❤️

Thanks for the new thread @Dreamingof3! Sorry I've been MIA recently, things are a bit crazy and I'm dropping plates left and right 🙈

@PinkButtercups sending a huge hug, hope everything is ok with the twins xx

Hope you're ok @WingingIt09 ?

Just been to midwife appt, took them absolutely ages to find the heartbeat, would've normally sent me into a huge panic but I could feel her moving 😂 completely awkward as per usual and is transverse which probably explains why my section scar has been so uncomfortable lately!

Thanks for the tag and new thread @Dreamingof3 :)

Fingers crossed this is the thread we all get our BFPs. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Thanks for the tag and the new thread!

Feeling a bit down about everything again the past couple of days as we get closer to Christmas. AF due on Monday, I will probably test Mon AM unless AF starts first.

@PinkButtercups thinking of you. Hope they're looking after you well and fingers crossed all goes to plan next week rather than earlier x

13dpo and had a small amount of pink spotting again this morning for the third day which has now gone so hopefully that’s done with, tmi but also had diarrhoea today, and have been for a wee so so much!

I really hope this is it! AF due Monday and no usual symptoms, I usually get sore thighs and cramps the day before I come on but nothing! If I don’t come on by Monday I will test then 🤞🏻🤞🏻

baby dust to everyone!
@PinkButtercups try not to worry too much, they will look after you and do the right thing for you and babies, sending virtual hugs and support, we are always here to chat ❤️

Just a quick update; DH and I have had bloods done to screen for any nasties and a urine sample from me to screen for STDs. they said they'd call me today if I need a rubella booster vaccine, although hopefully my immunisation in childhood is still there. No call so far, which they told me to take as a good sign. I saw all of the drugs that I need to take and I about fell out of the chair. I'm crapping myself! But I know it'll all be worth it in the end.

I hope everyone is doing okay.

@BethSuz27 @Welshgal85 Fingers crossed for you both xx

@PinkButtercups oh you poor thing! As others have said, they will take full care of you and your babies. I can imagine it's really hard to not worry, but we are here if you need to vent.

@Dreamingof3 yes I'm ok thank you, just busy 🙈 had a midwife appointment yesterday and heard the heartbeat which was lovely. Slightly paranoid as it sounded a lot slower than my girls heartbeats did but was 123 which is apparently within the normal range so not a concern. I've felt a few movements but nothing distinct yet, can't wait for proper kicks for reassurance everything is ok. I've got the anomaly scan on few days before Christmas so hopefully everything ok at that! X

Ooh maybe it's a boy this time? @WingingIt09 I hate that in between bit where the movements aren't frequent enough to be reassuring! This anterior placenta is really throwing me, if the baby moves behind it again I can't feel much at all!

Thanks for the tag and starting the new thread @Dreamingof3 Hope this one will bring even more BFPs 😊

@Houseelf90 get on the cough medicine! We conceived while we were both poorly with flu - fingers crossed for you!

@BethSuz27 Fingers crossed it's implantation. Keep us updated.

@PinkButtercups So sorry you're having a rough time. Look after yourself. Not long till they're here and I can't wait to read that announcement! 😍

@Welshgal85 @LucyLoopyLu Sorry you're having a rough time too, hope you can distract yourself with some festive things.

@SarahShorty That sounds intense but very thorough, and wonderful you're getting the ball rolling.

Not much to report from me - I'm 5w4d and time is crawling by so slowly! Still don't really feel pregnant but just grateful for each day I have with this bean. Overly anxious that something might go wrong.

@PinkButtercups hope you're okay 💗 just remember you're in the right place and better being in hospital being monitored if required but I know that won't be much of a consolation to you just now and you'll be filled with worry. Hope all goes well xx

Thank you all.
They sent me home. They were going to do a sweep but apparently there is no NICU beds... but the labour ward was short staffed... so not sure which one is true. I'm phoning at 8pm as that is shift change and I don't feel comfortable being at home.

@DesertSnow thank you! I’m really hoping this will be our month. We actually DTD at silly o’clock this morning, the benefit of us both being unwell and not sleeping great I guess 🤣
I’m so pleased that everything seems to be going smoothly for you!

@PinkButtercups what a mix of emotions for you!! Sorry to hear about the stress and worry you are having, but how exciting that you will soon meet your precious babies!

@BethSuz27 ooh fingers crossed for implantation!!

There was a lot of baby talk at work yesterday and someone I sit near got married in the summer, so a guy whose girlfriend is expecting asked her why no babies yet!! Thankfully he didn’t say anything to me as I think I would have snapped back about my loss!!

@BethSuz27 really hoping this is it for you. The spotting seems like a very good sign! Hope this is your cycle

@SarahShorty wow all seems very full on! Hope you're feeling OK about it all, such a positive step though

@WingingIt09 oh good news about hearing the heartbeat, bet that is lovely. Good luck for the anomaly scan!

@Dreamingof3 how are you doing?

@DesertSnow 5 weeks 4 days already! Have you had many symptoms?

@PinkButtercups we're all rooting for you and the babies. Lots of good wishes

@Houseelf90 hope you feel better soon! But maybe the cough syrup will work! X

Thanks all.

I've had to be transferred to a hospital 1hrs 30 mins away as that's the only space they had at NICU. Absolutely gutted I couldn't stay in my local hospital close to my biggest baby. I just keep reminding myself that I had to chose what was best/safest.

I'm actually in very early labour myself. Probably from the stress of today 😅.
