@bringmearainbow that’s good they all know, nicer as well you can be honest if you are distracted or not feeling well etc. neither of our sets of parents know yet but that’s our choice, will tell them after the viability scan whatever the outcome. This pregnancy is about you and your husband and you need to do what’s right for you both whether that’s telling people or not. hope she got early December for you all to go!!

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 17:47

@FfoxRedN oh the bloat is immense. I'm living in dresses and leggings tbf I can wear anything to work which is very useful 😂 oh white water rafting does sound fun but they will def be wondering what's up if you cancel 🙈 everyone deals with things in their own way and she will find out either way so I wont tip toe around her I just wont come out and say it. Though my niece and nephew who are always round there are very quick to say I'm pregnant as soon as I'm a bit bloated 😂 so I'm sure they'll come out and say that

@Alexis7890 she hasn't come back to me yet so I'm guessing she might not have them. Tbh after 3 pregnancies I'm over keeping it a secret it's too hard 🙊

Just had my blood taken and they did my BP whilst I was there all fine so it could be low iron or it's no doubt nothing just one of those pregnancy things that like to rear it's head

Alexis7890 · 20/04/2023 18:13

@bringmearainbow ive told loads of people and this is my first ever pregnancy 😂 all my friends know and I’ve told my boss and a couple of work people. I’m rubbish at secrets and I can’t lie anyway and especially when people know what we’ve been going through. When will you get your blood results? Yeah might just be one of those things, when I’ve googled different things it feels like everything can be a pregnancy symptom!

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 19:33

@Alexis7890 same I'm awful at lying be terrible at poker 😂 so I will call about 9.45 and see if they pick up but I'm there for the 10am scan so if they don't answer tonight then I'll just get them in the morning. If it just doubles them it should be about 1090 in the previous blood tests it's more than doubled so I'm hoping it will be a little higher 🤞🏼

Went to pick DS up from MIL and niece and nephew were there immediately niece said your pregnant 😂 I swear they have a 6th sense

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 19:34

Also we got 10th dec for polar express

LuckyMoonstone · 20/04/2023 19:36

@bringmearainbow ooh I hope you can hold on til after then 😅

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 19:37

@FfoxRedN 🤣 the little buggers just know 🤣

MrsJGrealish · 20/04/2023 20:05

Right girlies,

@bringmearainbow good luck for the scan tomorrow 💕

@TheBirdintheCave I really wish you a positive test tomorrow ❤️ Sometimes fmu isn't the best so I'd do a couple to be sure. Why not waste an extra £5.. with the meds I haven't a clue what your prescription is and it's likely all will be provided but if you run into any availability trouble give me a nod.

So much luck and love girls xx

Ps dizziness is shit and for all those that have this take it easy.

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 20:05

@MrsJGrealish thanks lovely hope you're ok? Xx

MrsJGrealish · 20/04/2023 20:17

@bringmearainbow yes I'm good xx throwing myself into work. If you can't beat it do you're best for everyone else 😘 (have named changed for this thread..don't want you to be thinking 'who is this and why are they stalking me🤣🤣')

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 20:33

@MrsJGrealish 😂 we would have figured it out I'm sure 🤭 glad you're ok and work is keeping you busy!

DH now can't come tomorrow so looks like im flying solo 🙄

Alexis7890 · 20/04/2023 20:33

@bringmearainbow thats so funny they knew right away!! Did you say anything? Ooh nice early scan, hope your hcg is nice and high!

bunnykins123 · 20/04/2023 20:35

@bringmearainbow good luck for the scan tomorrow! I'll be checking in for updates! 💕

@FfoxRedN don't worry about the lack of sickness. I defo had days where I felt absolutely fine. Weirdly, mine got way worse around 10 - 16 weeks.

@MrsJGrealish @TheBirdintheCave how are you both feeling? Hope you're feeling a bit better 💕

bringmearainbow · 20/04/2023 20:36

@Alexis7890 no I didn't they are only 7 and 5 we told them early last year then had to tell them we lost it so I will def wait to say anything to them until 12 week scan. They probably just see my big bloated belly and that's what it is but they did say both times last year that I was pregnant and I was 🙊 spooky!

Alexis7890 · 20/04/2023 20:38

@bringmearainbow kids can pick up on things, could be bloat or could be if you carry yourself differently or something and they know it’s what you did before? My friend had someone say they knew from how was she walking and standing she was pregnant before she had told him!

FfoxRedN · 20/04/2023 20:41

@MrsJGrealish 😘🤗 xxx

@MrsJGrealish hope you’re ok xx

bringmearainbow · 21/04/2023 06:14

Hcg had risen perfectly was hoping for around 1090 if it had doubled every 48 hours since last Friday and we're at 1277 come on sticky baby

bringmearainbow · 21/04/2023 06:18

@TheBirdintheCave good luck with testing this morning lovely

FfoxRedN · 21/04/2023 07:04

@bringmearainbow 🥰 great news!
@TheBirdintheCave thinking of you today 😊 xx

@bringmearainbow ah that’s amazing!

TheBirdintheCave · 21/04/2023 08:20

Was hoping to give you good news this morning but sadly not. Totally blank FRER at 10dpo so no miracle 2023 baby for me. My body is just utterly broken and useless. I'm still so ill 😭

I don't know what to do here now. I can't participate in any of the pregnancy chat other than to cheer you on so feel a bit like a spare wheel right now.

Only silver lining to all of this is that I can now take Ibuprofen so maybe it won't feel like I'm swallowing knives any more? 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm so fed up of being in pain 😭

G this morning said 'Mummy has another G in the fridge'. We were like ??? 😂

FfoxRedN · 21/04/2023 08:56

@TheBirdintheCave you can absolutely participate you are still TTC down the IVF route. I'm sure we can all do our best to support you through the start of that journey too, in the end you will still be POAS and symptom spotting!
At the moment you are just waiting for CD1, prepping for ovulation and then on to collect all those super eggies! Please stick around 😘😘😘 xxx

I still have little hope and imagine I'll be following a couple of months behind you, so we could be in it together yet xxx
