TWW - Testing Around 1st March

Creating a thread for anyone close to ovulation or already in the TWW! I find this journey easier speaking to people going through the same and on the same timeline. We are trying for baby #1 after a MC end of June/July, we was going with the flow but after nothing happening we decided to start tracking ovulation last month and this month i started tracking BBT as well. This month is also our first month using Preseed after I saw so many people say it helped!

I am currently 3DPO - Ovulation was on cycle day 15 confirmed by BBT.

@Sb86 one more day today and its scan day! Will be thinking of you tomorrow and praying everything goes ok. How have you been? My morning sickness has reallllly kicked in now, seem to be sick in the morning but just feel sick all day. Really cant wait for Saturday for our scan just to know its all worth it 🙏

How had everyone else been? @1sttimemummy2022 when is your follow up scan booked in, how are you? xx

Sickness is hitting here as well although no where near as bad as it was with my first which is a bit unnerving.

@Sb86 best of luck for your scan. @TTCRainbow hope the week goes quickly for you!

1sttimemummy2022 · 22/03/2023 11:44

@TTCRainbow Hi! My follow up is a week tomorrow, I have sort of accepted it's not meant to be, but we shall see. I haven't had any cramps or anything and I'm 6weeks 2days. I called epu on Monday as I had forgotten what they told me, and she said I have the tiniest bleed and a gs and a yolk but think my body is playing tricks on me

I'm just focusing on my little girl as it's her first birthday next week 🥰

Good luck to everyone that are having scans!

Sb86 · 22/03/2023 11:50

Thanks ladies, my nausea has ramped up...I've not been sick but that feeling is well and truly there! My boobs have grown and nipples still tender so hoping all that is a good sign. Not bled red since Sat night the one time but have had quite a bit of brown when wiping but nothing on pad again hoping that's good. Tomorrow can't come soon enough but I'm scared stiff at the same time, not looking forward to being in the exact same place as we were last October 🙃

Will keep you all posted whatever the outcome.

Hoping your sickness fades away very soon although I'm sure it will stick around for a few more weeks yet x

1sttimemummy2022 · 23/03/2023 13:52

Little update from me.. I caved a booked an early scan this morning after my epu experience on Saturday.

I have a little baby measuring at 6 weeks 1 day and I have no bleed and a titled uterus after having a section. So confused why the epu never mentioned this?

Looks like I'm going to have 2under2!

Sb86 · 23/03/2023 15:48

So pleased for you @1sttimemummy2022 that's brilliant news 🥰❤️

That's strange about the uterus isn't it and because of the section?

Sb86 · 23/03/2023 15:49

Hey ladies, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Went for my scan this morning and baby was hiding but she managed to find it and there was a good strong heartbeat. She's dated me further along so we are actually 6+5 instead of 6 which I'm happy about, although that could change come the 12 week scan. They said I have a subchorionic hematoma but she didn't seem concerned but they weren't last time and we sadly lost it at 8 weeks. Also been prescribed 10 weeks of progesterone 😊 so praying this baby sticks around and does it's time ❤️🙏🏼🌈

Sb86 · 23/03/2023 16:00

I've just looked at my notes @1sttimemummy2022 and my uterus is tilted too, it's anteverted meaning tilting towards the front. It's interesting as didn't have a clue until just now but depending on which way you're uterus is tilting can determine how soon you start showing your bump. Mine will probably show sooner anyway as I've already got children but because it's anteverted it will make it show sooner than a retroverted (tilting towards back) uterus. Never even realised this was a thing!

1sttimemummy2022 · 23/03/2023 17:03

Congratulations @Sb86 I hope that you have a healthy pregnancy 😊

Just had a look at it says retroverted, so I'm guessing I won't show for a longggg time! I didn't show until about 28 weeks in my last pregnancy, not sure where she was hiding though 🙈 xx

TTCRainbow · 23/03/2023 17:27

amazing news for both of you! @1sttimemummy2022 @Sb86

so funny, at my scans a EPU with MC pregnancy they said i had a really tilted uterus with tilted backwards! So sometimes hard to find where they are.. my scan is Saturday i wonder if they will say the same. Hoping for good news like you guys today 🙏

So glad they've prescribed you progesterone now @Sb86 looking forward to us all having this journey together 🌈👶xxx

Sb86 · 23/03/2023 19:50

@TTCRainbow so you should show later then by all accounts. What time is your scan Saturday? Only 2 more sleeps 😊 got everything crossed for you ❤️🤞🏼🌈

I'm so glad they have too and 10 weeks worth of it 🙌🏽

TTCRainbow · 25/03/2023 19:34

We had our 7 weeks scan today and little baby with heartbeat 🥺🥺 everything looking ok so feeling so grateful and relieved 🙏🏼

Sb86 · 25/03/2023 23:10

@TTCRainbow oh yay 🥰🙌🏽 so pleased for you ❤️🌈 bet it feels like a weight has been lifted doesn't it xx* *

Sb86 · 28/03/2023 10:06

Hey ladies, how is everyone doing? Xx

DiamondApricot · 28/03/2023 10:48

So glad everyone's scans have been good news, still a week to go until mine but the midwife called me to set up my booking in appointment so that has made it feel a bit more real.

Sb86 · 28/03/2023 13:00

How far along will you be on your scan day? @DiamondApricot

TTCRainbow · 28/03/2023 13:27

Hey @Sb86 it defo felt like weigh had been lifted but sunday, wow... i could not keep any food or drink down was really poorly and i cant work out if it was my sickness ramped up or i got a bug. Was same yesterday until the afternoon when i finally could eat and drink something and keep it down. I kind of regret not going to a&e for fluids but i didnt want to seem like a hypochondriac 😫

how have you been? xx

@DiamondApricot bet you cant wait xx

OP posts:
DiamondApricot · 28/03/2023 13:40

@Sb86 I'll be 7 +6 so they should definitely be able to see something, I'm just worried about there being nothing or a mmc. I can't wait until 12 weeks for a scan!

@TTCRainbow I've got some horrible bug, only been able to stomach crumpets and squash for days, maybe you've got the same thing.

TTCRainbow · 30/03/2023 09:20

@DiamondApricot I defo think it was a 24 hour bug! Gone back to just my normal sickness now, hopefully dont pick up any more germs :(

We had 50% off for booking another early scan so impatient me couldn't wait until our 12 week scan so have booked one for 10 weeks to brake up the waiting time! I feel like after the MC and it being out first baby i just want to alway make sure everythings ok.

Hope everyone else is doing good xxx

OP posts:
TTCRainbow · 03/04/2023 14:16

Hey all how is every doing?

@DiamondApricot have you had your scan yet??

I've been having bad sickness/nausea but seem to have got to 8 weeks and its slowing down... which i thought it would get worse. Obvs worried a little but i have a 10 week scan booked on 15th so just will have to hold out until then to make sure all is still ok! God does the worrying ever stop! lol xxx

OP posts:
TTCRainbow · 03/04/2023 14:17

everyone** lol

OP posts:
DiamondApricot · 03/04/2023 14:23

It's tomorrow! I'm rather nervous as I had horrendous sickness right up until delivery with my first and this is at worst, mild nausea.
I've even got midwives chasing me as I don't see the point in booking bloods until I've confirmed there's something there!

TTCRainbow · 03/04/2023 14:28

@DiamondApricot Aww good luck for tomorrow! I guess its worrying when you have another pregnancy to compare it too but they say everyone can have completely different pregnancies each time. I'm positive all will be ok and you can then get back to midwifes and get your appointments book! I'm 8 weeks 2 days today and feel like things are slowing down rather then pacing up... 😫Just really hope everything is still ok in there! xx

OP posts:
DiamondApricot · 03/04/2023 18:19

@TTCRainbow thank you for the luck and reassurance, I'll be sure to report back.

Your sickness shouldn't last forever so if that's coming down its OK, week 9 is meant to be peak so you're not far off.
This part is so hard, once the kicks start, at least there's a better indicator that all is well!

TTCRainbow · 04/04/2023 15:32

@DiamondApricot Hope everything went ok today xx
