Hi ladies

I thought I’d create this thread if anyone wants to jump on.

I have a little boy who was 2 in April šŸ’–

we decided in March to start trying for baby #2 and we were delighted to get pregnant that same month! Unfortunately we lost the baby at the end of April at 6w 4d

The MC is completed and I have taken an OPK this morning which looks to be really high. Not quite peak but definitely high which is just great that I’m ovulating again! I didn’t know what would happen. We both feel ready to try again this month so will be going for it.

Whether you’re TTC baby #1 #2 #3 etc you’re welcome to jump on ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

@Sez281 I deff see a line, that’s how mine looked for the first probably 2 days I tested, it’s definitely there, tentative congratulations 🄳

I had nearly the same scenario as u, I went on a long holidays abt a week after my bfp, I’d a hen, a wedding, meeting friends for part and then lots of family joining us for the last week of it. I thought how on earth will I hide this but in the end it was actually fineā¤ļø Esp if ppl know about ur MC (close family did) I just said I wasn’t in the form for drinking and no1 asked Qs.

SnookyPook · 11/07/2023 08:58

@Sez281 yep I definitely see something again - fingers crossed for you! 😊

Sez281 · 11/07/2023 09:15

Thanks all, I'm not going to get too excited but I am a bit more hopeful, especially as I feel extremely nauseous this morn 🄓 I'll do another one tomorrow šŸ™

@DmcinT yeah I'm probably overthinking it. If it's a definite positive then I'll just avoid rounds and drink 7up and pretend it's G&T šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøšŸ˜‚ I'd say they'll definitely twig something though as I do love to drink on hols.. I'll have a few virgin cocktails maybe šŸ¤”šŸ˜‚

DmcinT · 11/07/2023 10:56

Scan this morning and everything looks great, we saw the heartbeat and most importantly there’s just one baby in there šŸŽ‰šŸ„°šŸ„³ I kind of can’t believe it to be honest, I think I just had myself so prepared for bad news again, it feels so surreal to know all is well.

Sez281 · 11/07/2023 11:21

Awww congratulations @DmcinT šŸŽ‰ That's fantastic news, you must be so relieved 🄰

Jadeypie · 11/07/2023 11:29

Awww I'm so happy for you @DmcinT 🄰 do you find it's helped with the anxiety now? Hopfully you can start feeling more positive and start to enjoy the pregnancy ā¤ļø

SnookyPook · 11/07/2023 12:28

@DmcinT wonderful news!! 🄰🌈🄳 So happy for you 🄰

Hankthehonk · 11/07/2023 13:58

@DmcinT Hurrah, I'm so happy for you! I know you were worried about multiples again because of the risks so I hope you are able to feel excited and hopeful in this moment

Westy22 · 11/07/2023 14:04

Awww congratulations @DmcinT bet its such a relief! X

DmcinT · 11/07/2023 14:05

@Hankthehonk @SnookyPook @HopeAndStrength @Strawb28 @xxcxdonxx @Jadeypie @Sez281 thanks so much girls, it deff feels like a relief, I know things can still go wrong but just hearing al is as it should be at this stage is so reassuring. I’m actually in with EPU for another scan here now, they has sent out an appointment and it just happened to fall on the same day as my gp had booked me in with her for a scan. Epu machine will be much clearer so I’m almost looking forward to this one as opposed to being terrified this morningšŸ˜…

I hope everyone is doing ok today, if ur having a down or bad day I really hope I’m not upsetting anyone, this group have been so supportive and helpful for me over the last 3/4 months I wanted to give a little update, hope that’s ok ā¤ļø

Sez281 · 11/07/2023 14:13

@DmcinT Awww I can only imagine the relief 🄲 Please do keep updating us with your progress. I know I'm in a weird grey area at the moment with my faint bpf 🄓 but if it doesn't work out for me this month then it's so nice to follow positive stories like yours on this thread 😊We're all in the same boat after our losses and it's so great to hear all of the lovely outcomes šŸ’•

SnookyPook · 11/07/2023 14:16

@DmcinT oh that's lovely that you get a 'do over' where you can be excited instead of terrified! 😃 Enjoy! And please never feel bad about posting positive updates. I honestly find it so reassuring and lovely to hear. It brings hope šŸ’•

On that note, back to CD1 for me... But feeling ok and quite optimistic - it's amazing how much the hormone shift once AF arrives improves my mood, even in the face of disappointment! I did have a gut instinct it was a no this month though so really wasn't overly surprised. Just glad again that things seem to be working as they should. Going to try and have a really healthy positive cycle this month. Need to sleep better, eat better etc... And start my daily yoga up again. Just trusting that the right baby will come along when it comes along. Had quite a lot of stress around ovulation this month with my Dad in hospital and DH on long tiring shifts etx, whereas DH and I both on leave around next ovulation and hopefully in a better place so šŸ¤žšŸ»

Strawb28 · 11/07/2023 15:21

@DmcinT im loving everyone's BFP stories. It keeps me so positive and hopeful!! I'm delighted that you are feeling more content going in to this evenings scan ā¤ļø

DmcinT · 11/07/2023 17:25

Thanks girls, sending all the baby dust to everyone for this cycle šŸ™šŸ½ā¤ļøā¤ļø Xx

Freddie15VES · 11/07/2023 17:44

Just got back guys! Measuring a few days behind but as it wasn’t an internal one she said it’s hard to get measurements spot on! But she saw them moving about and we saw a clear heart beat

Aww congratulations @Freddie15VES that's great news

DmcinT · 11/07/2023 18:00

@Freddie15VES šŸ„°šŸ„°ā¤ļø Lovely news, so delighted for u too. Similar to u she said it’s so hard to get an accurate reading of size at this point. But just amazing that everything is as it should be, how are u feeling?

@SnookyPook Sorry about af arriving, but great ur feeling optimistic and that’s a great plan for the next few weeksšŸ™šŸ½šŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø

the EPU scan was so much clearer and relaxed, it was the same dr I had for my MMC scans and she was so caring, she gave me 8 pics of baba🄰 and I’m in again next Friday at nearly 10 weeks so it’ll be nice to see the difference and growth please god šŸ™šŸ½

@Freddie15VES @DmcinT ohhhh I'm loving these scan pictures šŸ„°ā¤ļø it really does make us who are waiting all excited about our little beans waiting to come!
As the others say these updates give us hope and it's just lovely seeing use happy aswell xx

SnookyPook · 12/07/2023 00:09

@Freddie15VES wonderful news! I'm so glad 🄰 Also loving the scan pics! Your EPU scan sounds lovely @DmcinT - must have been lovely for the sonographer to be able to have a joyful experience with you too after the last time. I always feel for them - I know it's their job but there must be days when certain losses just stick with them and make them sad too. Anyway, loving the positivity on this thread right now! 🄰

Strawb28 · 12/07/2023 01:41

@Freddie15VES massive congratulations! So happy to hear everything went well ā¤ļøā¤ļø
