Catching up - TTC After Miscarriage part 3

[BecsterG]

Hi Ladies, just setting up a new thread as we're almost at the end of the current one. Let's move over when it's full.

Xx

Totally know how you feel @SunnySideUp2020 !! We moved into our house 3 weeks ago there are still boxes and things everywhere!! On an exciting note, we got the babies' bedroom painted this weekend and DP has done a mountain mural on the back wall which looks pretty good! (His grandma is Swiss and he has pretty much spent every year skiing and just loves the mountains 🏔). I have also ordered two cots!! 😬

I'm 26 weeks today and I can't believe how quickly time is going now. I've been told delivery between 32-34 weeks all being well so that means I've only got 6-8 weeks left! 😮 I've pretty much done my hospital bags now... but still need to get so much other stuff! Haven't got a pram or car seats yet!

@scrumdiddly123 gorgeous little bump! 😍 keeping everything crossed for your scan on thurs 🤞🏻 will post my bumpie at some point today! Xx

Here’s mine from just now! ❤️ 25+1

Hope you girls don't mind me joining in on the thread @milscookie put the link up I'm 5+4 after 2 miscarriages so anxiety is trying to take over me but I'm trying to remain as positive as I can got an app at the epu next Thursday when I will be 7 weeks can't come quick enough but I also I will be a bag off nerves the app is 8.10 in the morning so won't have long to collect myself when I get up oh on nites so will be straight out the door when he gets home. Congratulations to all the ladies now getting there rainbow babies. Why does pregnancy after loss have to be so stressful. 🍀💚🍀💚

@scrumdiddly123 such a cute little bump x

@TerribleImagination can't wait to have a proper one like yours 😍

@sunnysideup2020
Hi how you keeping I'm just trying to tlk to people that's going through wat I went through, good to hear things can work out after what we been through. Just hoping I can get through the next 6 weeks. Have you ever had a vaginal scan in early pregnancy I'm scared off thats what mine going to be nxt week 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

@Babyghirl, I've had internal scans. They're nothing to worry about.

35+2 bump update

@BS9790 nice bump! Very neat!!!

Anyone using stretch mark creams? In prevention?

@scrumdiddly123 i had internal before in early pregnancy and got internal for my 12w 😅
Don't worry about it. They will be very gentle

@bs9790
Thank you only time I have ever had then done was while I was miscarriaging so never had a positive ultrasound hoping next Thursday is my first. Wish the nxt 6 weeks would fly in 🤞🙏🤞🙏🤞🙏 💚

Sorry was meant to tag @Babyghirl not @scrumdiddly123

@sunnysideup2020
Thank you I'm just nervous incase I bleed or anything after my heart world be in my mouth for the nxt 5 to 6 weeks at the thought of it, read some stories they can case a loss but I know in my head it would not be true or they would not do them just my mind doing over time 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

@Babyghirl i don't think internal scans can cause a loss...
It's not even like having sex and unless you are already losing the pregnancy, it won't make you miscarry. Try not to worry...

@sunnysideup2020
I have not let him near me from I found out I'm that scared lol. My first loss I had sex on the Tuesday started bleeding after it and lost bean in the sat I knw it was not the sex but that always sticks in my head. Feel sorry for dp but he understands God love him xx

17+3 bump. Going to be the size of a house. I just keep reminding myself it was all stretched by twins, only a year ago, so bound to be bigger.

Lovely to see all of your bumps.

@BecsterG love your birth story!💕 it's just so lovely to hear such a positive story😊

@Babyghirl welcome!! It's just such a nerve wrecking time and especially in the earlier weeks. I've had 2 internal scans this time around and it's honestly fine, they are very gentle so try not to worry about that part at least!

Loving all the bumps ladies..mines up and down so still just bloat I think! Not much today although I do feel bloated! 14+5 today.
We got harmony test results back and came back low risk so delighted! We're getting posted results with the sex and we're going to open them next week as we're going away for couple nights to a hotel for our 3 year anniversary. Can't wait 😊

😍 absolutely loving seeing all these gorgeous bumps! Here's mine... 26+0 today with the twinnies 😬🌈🌈

Glad you found us @Babyghirl and keeping everything crossed for your scan next Thurs!

Wow @SunnySideUp2020 I can't believe you're 13+2 now... feels like it's gone so quickly! Although probably not for you!

Loving all the bump shots ladies!

@ChampooPapi you're right although the only
Day 4. Tonight I was able to watch Max in the shower and read him his books all as Jude slept. Loved that so Max could get some money time. Just s lucky night I think as I'm sure there will be night which are the exact opposite! Ha ha

@MilsCookie so far so good with Jude. He's feeding well and starting to sleep in his basket for longer which is great although babies do lure you into a false sense of security so trying just to take each day as it comes. We've not had any visitors yet apart from my parents who were here when we go home from hospital as I live in Glasgow so households aren't allowed to meet in doors. I'm going to take Jude out for his first coffee on Thursday! Ha ha

@leok83
Thank you I can't wait to it comes around I'm excited but nervous just a scared to do anything wrong.
@milscookie
Glad I found girls in the same shoes as me now I know there light at the end off the tunnel nxt Thursday not coming quick enough then I will be counting down the nest 5 6 weeks to the main scan lol. 💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀 And congratulations to both off u on your rainbow babies.

Morning loves!

I’m in for my GTT test this morning, so got a nice 2 hour wait now 😐 That drink wasn’t as bad as I’d imagined, just a bit rank that it got thicker towards the bottom of the cup - ew. Oh well, hopefully it’s just a tick box that gets ticked nicely!

Ahhh so many lovely bump pictures, so much time has passed! Here is mine at about 30 weeks, im beginning to get a bit worried about how big I will be as I'm massive already!!
@BecsterG so lovely to read your birth story, and even lovelier to hear how well you are getting on! So pleased for you!
Congrats on the flat @SunnySideUp2020 that must be a huge relief! Im using lots of creams and oils on my bump but I think getting marks is generic. The creams help when I'm feeling really massive and stretched though!
Great news on your test results @Leok83 and enjoy your trip away. We are away at the min, having probably our last peaceful holiday!! Lots of sleeping which is just what I need.

Well send a swab to docs last week as I was having green discharge, she just off the phone I have strap b 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈 anyone on this thread have this. Found out really early as only 5+5weeks on she has reasurred me it's nothing to worry about. Only have to be put on iv antibiotics when in labour 💚🍀

@BecsterG it all just sounds dreamy!! 😍 glad you're getting into a routine. Shame you can't have any visitors just yet though.

@TerribleImagination how did the test go? When do you get results? Nobody has mentioned having this GTT test to me, is it only if you have certain risk factors associated or something?

@Whiffle77 gorgeous bump!! 😍 I've also been using cream (morning) and bio oil (at night) on my bump and so far so good stretch mark wise 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 but I do think it's mainly genetic! I thought I'd get them though as I got quite a lot of my hips and bum when I was a teenager!

@Babyghirl oh wow that must have been a shock! Glad they found out what it is now though as they now know what to do during birth. I think it's really common from what I've heard and lots of people don't realise they have it!

@MilsCookie It went fine! No puking after the lovely drink haha, so that was a bonus. Just boring hanging out for the 2 hours for the next blood test. But all done and home now, getting the nursery walls prepped for a freshen up coat of paint! 😍

You won’t be sent for a GTT test unless there’s any risk factors, like high BMI. I was sent for it only because my Mum has type 2 diabetes. Although she was diagnosed in her mid 60’s and is very very overweight, so hers is clearly lifestyle related and not genetic! So basically it’s ticking a box for me, I hope! I love Nutella too much to have to follow a GD diet haha, that would SUCK!

@TerribleImagination haha well done on not puking! Ahhh I see, yes hopefully just a tick box exercise for you and I'm sure everything will be fine! I'm obsessed with Nutella too 😍😋 oo lovely what colour are you going for in the baby's room?! ❤️
