Catching up with TTC after MC thread January 2020

[BecsterG]

Hi Ladies, hoping you all can join soon. The TTC (trying to conceive) after MC (miscarriage) January group have been so supportive I hope we can keep it up for those who have BFP (big fat positive).

Woohoo! Thanks for the list @ChampooPapi 😍

How’s everyone doing?

I found out this week I’m being furloughed from Wednesday, so I am absolutely BUZZING haha! Still feeling super nauseous 24/7, so can’t wait to nap whenever I want - 1st trimester dream! Also hoping I start to feel better soon, so I can smash through some DIY jobs!

Oh that’s great you can have some time off and properly rest @TerribleImagination. Makes such a difference. I’m currently not working and very much enjoying the naps when my toddler naps.

I had an early scan today and all is well. I am 7weeks and heart beat flickering away and everything looking healthy. I don’t think I’ve ever been so nervous for anything!

Still very nauseous but taking that as a good sign and eating all the plain food and carbs.

Hope everyone else is feeling well x

Amazing news @Mammacooks! Nothing beats seeing that heartbeat does it? So good that you’re able to have to some time off too. I don’t know how anyone manages the 1st trimester whilst looking after a toddler - you are all superwomen! 😍

@TerribleImagination thanks goodness my sister is living with us and furloughed and my husband being home is a huge help. Needless to say there has been a lot of peppa pig! I don’t know HOW people do it with no help and multiple kids.
Hopefully we’ll both be feeling better soon. So worth it though!x

Hey @Mammacooks , shall I add you to the list lovely? 🌈👣

Please do @ChampooPapi thank you 💓 so far my EDD is 22/01/2021 xx

Oh and 7 weeks exactly x

Thank you for updating the list @ChampooPapi!! You're a ! I'm a little bit further than what you have me down as according to the scan I had last week, so today I'm 9+2 (just makes it sound like it's going quicker haha!)

That's amazing you've been furloughed now @TerribleImagination - you can now fully relax and enjoy the rest of your first trimester! I say 'enjoy' loosely as I know you're feeling so sick and it might not be that enjoyable... but at least you can lie on the sofa all day if you want to and not feel guilty!

Yayyyyyyyy @Mammacooks !!

Absolutely @Mammacooks - it’ll be so so worth it 😍

Haha that Peppa Pig is an excellent distraction! I used to be a nanny years ago and the kids loved it then too!

Haha @MilsCookie it’ll deffo be more enjoyable on furlough, even with the sickness 😂

@MilsCookie this is fantastic your getting so close to your 12 week scan now, next time I update you'll be over ten weeks! Happy to do the list and make changes, any excuse for me to update, it's so satisfying isn't it 🙌👣 ✨

Thanks for updating @ChampooPapi. So nice to see everyone progressing nicely.

How is everyone? This post is getting near to being full so I'll set up another one and share the link.

Thank you for updating it @ChampooPapi!! It is SO satisfying seeing everyone's weeks go up! Yes I'll be 10 weeks on Wednesday! Double figures woo! Last time I started to get spotting around 10+5 so will be anxious as the week goes on. I've had some lower back cramps today which seem to have been more noticeable than they have been for a while so that's got me worried. Hoping it's just everything stretching though! How are things going with you?

Good idea - thanks @BecsterG! How are you?

How is everyone else doing? Has anyone got any scans coming up? xx

Woohoo to double figures @MilsCookie! 😍 Your 12 week scan will be here before you know it ❤️

I definitely wouldn’t worry about cramps, especially as you’ve got two little ones in there doing their growing ❤️ It’ll be everything stretching and making room. I totally get the anxiety about getting past a previous milestone though, that’s a tough one to deal with, but your little ones are strong and you’ve got this lovey 💪🏻

I’m still waiting for the date of my 12 week scan... Got my maternity exemption certificate through today though, which is exciting! The nausea has definitely ramped up over the last few days, so I’m hoping this might be it peaking and it starts to bugger off soon 😂🙈

Hi everyone hope all is well.
As usual I've been very quiet as I always get anxiety before a scan.
Had my '20 week scan' today at 19 weeks and baby has a healthy heart! Everything measuring perfect. My consultant wrote our sex down in an envelope so my husband will open that tonight. I have a strong feeling it's a girl haha. look at those lips x

Aww @AlviesMam congrats on the scan lovey! Just look at that gorgeous little face! ❤️ That’s so exciting you’ve got the sex written down to open later 😍

Awwww @AlviesMam I'm SO happy for you!! What a gorgeous scan pic 😍 and cute little pouty lips!! How lovely you can reveal the gender together - please let us know!! I think it's a girl too 💗😊

Thanks for the reassurance @TerribleImagination - I hope you're right. I think my brain just can't physically imagine things going further than last time. Time will tell. I feel like the next week and a half is going to draaaaaag!! Oh gosh I hope you're right about your sickness - you definitely don't want it to get any worse! 🙈 xx

That makes total sense @MilsCookie. We’re all here to chat to about the anxiety of it and always being the cheerleaders too ❤️

Yeah I really hope this doesn’t get worse either 🤢 I’ve heard it can peak around 9-10 weeks, so I really hope this is as bad as it’s going to get 🤞🏻 Xx

Fingers crossed for you @TerribleImagination !!

I'm having cramps again this evening and totally freaking out. Is this normal?? I know there are two inside me but I just feel like I shouldn't be feeling lower back/uterus cramps. I haven't had any spotting or anything just on and off cramps and I definitely went a couple of weeks without them. I had them on and off from weeks 4-6 and now they're back and I'm so worried .

It's a girl! 😁❤️

Oh my goodness @AlviesMam this is lovely news!!!! I'm super happy for you!!! Must have been such a relief that everything was all good with her heart as well.

Amazing news @AlviesMam! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

@MilsCookie I think it’s totally normal to get cramps all throughout pregnancy. I had some in the night one night last week too, just woke up crampy. As long as you’re not having bleeding too I’d try not to worry lovey ❤️

Aww congratulations! Amazing news @AlviesMam
