Thanks for all the well wishes ladies! All fine! Phew! No obvious cause of spotting seen but Babba is looking healthy and was very active! So glad and now can hopefully just enjoy the official scan on Friday!

Hankthehonk · 30/01/2024 16:35

@SnookyPook woohoo! SOO happy to see your positive update, and that's fantastic you're still in on Friday as well. Baby is thriving, clearly.

I have a lot of catching up to do with everyone else's posts, will try to do that tonight!

Jadeypie · 30/01/2024 16:38

@SnookyPook wonderful news!! It's crazy how active they are but you crnt feel them haha sounds like baby is having a lovely time and doing just perfect xx

Paws4thought · 30/01/2024 17:00

@SnookyPook so pleased for you, you can look forward to your official 12 week scan now πŸ˜€

Supertrooper101 · 30/01/2024 17:54

@SnookyPook and a sigh of releif πŸ™‚ hope you get excited for fridays now x

DmcinT · 30/01/2024 18:00

Oh wow girls there’s been a lot of action here the last day or 2 πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚ bfps, + opks (that peak is the highest peak I’ve seen lol (i think @Jadeypie ) sorry if that’s wrong tag, there’s a lot of update 🫣) I hope u got a chance to make use of it 🀣
@xxcxdonxx I’m sorry about af arriving, hope ur doing ok❀️

@SnookyPook great news on the scan☺️ it’s honestly a constant worry but each scan and positive day makes it more and more real πŸŽ‰

@Hankthehonk its so great having a date and knowing, let the countdown beginπŸ˜ƒ
I had stitch removed Friday and I’m just waiting very impatiently now πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ˜… midwives commented they’ll prob see us back before the end of the weekend so we really thought it would have happened soon, I wish they’d said nothing haha

Hankthehonk · 30/01/2024 18:14

@DmcinT nice to see you here! Yeah this thread has been all go in January πŸ˜‚
That's great it went well getting your stitch out but can imagine how on edge you are now waiting for labour to start.
The midwives know what they're talking about, I had a sweep with my daughter and the midwife said she'd put money on me going into labour within 24 hours. Waters broke on the way home from the sweep.
I'm feeling good about my section decision, just desperate to finish work and totally focus on preparing for the baby and for my recovery.

SnookyPook · 30/01/2024 18:15

Thanks so much everyone. Definitely a big relief. And yes, @Supertrooper101 , they've given me a pic every time! I actually think I have more scan pics than positive tests now from this pregnancy πŸ˜‚

@DmcinT oh wow! Gosh you must be on tenterhooks!! Best of luck to you! Hopefully little one won't keep you waiting too much longer! πŸ₯°

Sez281 · 30/01/2024 19:08

Aww that's great @SnookyPook I can only imagine the relief. Roll on Friday! ☺️ xx

@DmcinT Oh wow how exciting! Can't wait to hear your update πŸ’– xx

@Jadeypie hope OH's back has eased a bit and you might get one more go tonight πŸ˜‰ x

@Supertrooper101 I love your attitude towards it, crossing everything that it all goes ok on Thursday x.

I've just come home from work, haven't been able to shift this headache all day😣. I've had it since the day I got vfl on Saturday and paracetamol usually works but it's not denting it now. Going to have an early night and pray it's eased by tomorrow πŸ™

OP posts:
SnookyPook · 30/01/2024 19:18

@Sez281 oh that's no fun. Hope an early night sorts you out.

@Supertrooper101 I can't believe how patient you've been. I mean, I know you've not really had any choice but you're doing so well. I'm keeping everything crossed for you.

@Hankthehonk glad you're feeling good about everything and I bet you can't wait to finish work now! Not long to go..!

Paws4thought · 30/01/2024 19:40

@DmcinT you must be so excited to meet your little one now, hope you have a good labour!
@Sez281 is it tomorrow you're telling your other half? Maybe that will help relieve your headache or a good night's sleep tonight :)

Westy22 · 30/01/2024 19:41

So glad it went well @SnookyPook ❀️

@Jadeypie I understand your frustration, my OH has let me down a few times πŸ˜‘ I would fume then feel bad I put the pressure on him 🀣 I'm currently waiting for him to put his sperm in for testing and he's still not done it even tho all my results are back, I'll murder him if he's not done it by Friday.

@Sez281 hope you feel better soon, I can't believe you've managed to keep it a secret so far but I'm excited for you to tell the OH.

I'm sorry I've missed people I read everything then can't keep up when typing the reply πŸ™ˆ

I've had a bad day today, CD25 PMS is killing my mood and I've had periods of pure rage 🀣 I then come home and did a test...im not even 10dpo yet and it wasnt early detection FFS but i can't control myself. Convinced myself there is a shadow (as you do) and inverted you can see something, but telling myself it's an evap and ill retest in a few days. Temp is still rising atm but sods law will drop off a cliff tomorrow 🀣 Trying to stay positive but it's very hard when I've had so many negatives x

Hankthehonk · 30/01/2024 20:05

@Westy22 I do the same reading everything but not managing to keep up with replies these days.
You're going to have to show us this test! Have you got an early response one for the morning?
I love a vicarious testing thrill...

@Sez281 bet you can't wait to tell your oh tomorrow, will you need to wait until evening? How will you tell him?

@Jadeypie argh that's so frustrating about your dh, I hope you can get what you need tonight πŸ™ˆ
They're so lucky how much we carry the stress etc but I also do understand how the pressure of performing on certain days must be awful for men!

Jadeypie · 30/01/2024 21:28

@DmcinT oh how exciting!!! Not long now soon be getting the update that you e done it and both you and baby are healthy!! Xx

@Sez281 oh I can remember them headaches head in a fog mine was the same!! A good early night is what you need xx

@Supertrooper101 I agree with @SnookyPook your doing great and your mindset is spot on definitely a supertrooper xx

@Hankthehonk @Westy22 I agree totally but men just no how to give us the rage hahaha. But the goods r in the bag ladies so the mardy arse has calmed down haha xx

SnookyPook · 30/01/2024 22:50

@Jadeypie πŸ₯³πŸ˜‰

Sez281 · 31/01/2024 06:40

Yay @Jadeypie πŸ™Œ πŸ˜‚

@Westy22 I forgot for a moment that you were in TWW. As I said before evaps are the evil! It might not have been one though, what tests are you using? The smu theory is still holding by the way, mine are obviously darker than fmu. Fingers crossed for you over next few days πŸ™ xx

@Hankthehonk I'm collecting him from the airport this evening. I'll have to wait until we're home to tell him. I'm not going ott or anything given how anxious I still am, but I'll put a digital in an old bracelet jewellery box and tell him I've got a present for him πŸ₯Ή

@Paws4thought I think the headache is definitely a symptom as opposed to tiredness or excitement, I've woken up with it again this morning πŸ™ˆ I'll be ok though. How you feeling?

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 31/01/2024 07:22

@Westy22 did you test this morning? Keeping my fingers crossed this is the start of your bfp!! You never no, temps sound good too xx

So.im assuming I ovulated yesterday because those pains on my left side where so so uncomfortable and intense! I'm thinking maybe because that's where my ectopic was so maybe that ovary has scar tissue or somthing? I hope not because that's how eggs get stuck too (trying not to go down that rabbit hole) anyway woke up today with zero pains and feel better feel like I've had a little lesson from my body how it ovulated this week haha. Lhs dropped too the nerd in me is loving how my graph looks gahaha.i have my appointment today so I will update later. Xx

Jadeypie · 31/01/2024 07:23

Also @Sez281 that sounds too cute what your planning for your dh 😍 xx

xxcxdonxx · 31/01/2024 07:25

@SnookyPook that’s amazing news, so delighted for you!
Now you can go into your 12 week full of excitement πŸ₯°

Well done @Jadeypie on securing the goods πŸ˜‚

Oh I’ll keep everything crossed for you @Westy22 for the next few days, this thread has been so lucky so far so you never know! 🀞🏻

That sounds lovely @Sez281 , you must be so excited to tell him πŸ₯°

Sez281 · 31/01/2024 07:49

@Jadeypie I get really bad ovulation pain too, sometimes it radiates down my leg.. I think it's a good sign! πŸ™ I forgot you had appointment today hope it goes well and you get some answers 🀞xx

@xxcxdonxx yeah I can't wait. Just to get it off my chest, it's been killing me holding it in! πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚ Hope you're doing ok xx

Supertrooper101 · 31/01/2024 07:59

I ges am being patiwnt because i have too. Im gona be fuming tomorrow if its bad news and my bodys teased me again. But saw on a different thread that they hate cyclogest cos of the side effects so maybe this shitness is from that, or both πŸ€” find out tomorrow ! Lol
@Jadeypie did the sexy texts work or did his back just get better lol so have you hit the peak then apart from that one night do you think? Just need them temps to stay high now πŸ™‚..... actually u dont temp do you πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ lol bet u start ! Lol..... good luck with today!
@Sez281 hows the digital lasted this long, mine disappeared after 24hrs lol or did you buy 2? Headaches are very common, its a good sign as much as it hurts lol hormones, body getting used to the extra blood flowing. Should settle down soon though. That is so bloody romantic the bracellet box idea! I just sent my oh a pic lol

Sez281 · 31/01/2024 08:23

@Supertrooper101 I bought 2 but I shouldn't have as it's still on the screen! πŸ˜‚ I googled and it says it stays on it for months, so I'm going to bring the 2nd one back and swap it for a weeks indicator (which is only going to say 1-2 so probably a waste really πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ) I'm going to call gp today and book bloods for tomorrow or Friday. I know they're going to be low but I'm hoping she'll do repeat next week then too.

When you say you feel shit have you got any symptoms? Hopefully you can keep busy and distract yourself today and tomorrow comes around sooner πŸ™ xx

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 31/01/2024 08:53

@Supertrooper101 oh is your scan tomorrow? U must be feeling nervous tomorrow will give u the answers you need! I just went in full seduction mode haha didn't mention opk ect and worked a treat. (Hes still got a sore back) Peak was Monday and then yesterday it dropped abit but was still so so high and the pains ramped up loads yesterday like @Sez281 has down my leg ect so surly thats when the egg got kicked out haha not a twinge this morning opk dropped a fair bit to 50s xx

Hankthehonk · 31/01/2024 09:01

@Sez281 such a nice idea with the test, I'm excited for you! Can't believe you've held it in for days now, I could never πŸ˜‚

@Supertrooper101 really hoping for good news for you tomorrow, I know you're bracing yourself for the worst which is probably smart. But hope some of how you're feeling might actually be pregnancy symptoms?!

@Westy22 have you tested this morning?!

@Jadeypie you've had the clearest ovulation I've ever heard of I think! Here's hoping that means it's a super egg and you'll be back with bfp in a couple of weeks.

Supertrooper101 · 31/01/2024 09:20

@Sez281 mine was a weeks one. It was a right chunky beast but the display dissapeared... swap it and use it nxt week instead πŸ™‚.. are the gps over there more easy going at getting bloods then they are here then lol sickness and tired. But now am wondering if its just from the progesterone....ofc i am, an doubting everything cos the scans so close lol ignore me 🀯 lol
@Jadeypie you naughty girl 🀣 gota do what u gota do tho ! @Hankthehonk thats exactly my attitude and am going to say tell me straight away if its bad. Theres nothing worse than being scanned in silence....followed by alot of questions. Cant be arsed with that. Were all adults lol
