Minster's Side car bumping along - TTC Graduates Bus 1

[Sausage1990]

Hello ladies,
So I thought I'd put together a new thread for us (as you've probably seen in the main group). I thought this could be like a sub group (or side car as Haiyaa suggested) so we can chat about all things pregnancy without feeling that maybe we're overwhelming the TTC board.

I definitely don't want to leave the main bus and I know you all feel the same as we've created a amazing community of women supporting women... most people have said their ok with pregnancy chat but I know some are struggling with it and the shift in proportion of TTC vs BFPs, and we all know how hard it is to see too much pregnancy talk sometimes, especially if the journey has been long, as it has been for some. So I thought, lets be sensative to everyone's needs and have another option

I'm cautious about setting up a bus given I'm so so early but as I suggested it, I thought it best come from me I am happy to set up the threads but I dont have a great urge to be the bus driver (haha) so if anyone else wants to chip in setting up subseqeunt buses then I'd be happy yo share the responsibility!

Please tag anyone that I may have missed - I tried to go through the board to get any recent BFPs but I could have missed someone easily and theres ALOT haha.

Let's have a little update on everyone to get started...

@djmum83 thinking of you today lovely x
@minster2012 DH had driven 3/4 the way back, we stopped for ice cream then I suggested I'd drive the rest of the way to try the ankle out... Ouchhh!!!!

@2020mission I had an early scan privately at 8 weeks. I had a babydate one through ultrasound direct and it was only £45. I spoke to someone on the phone that said really I should have had a viability scan before hand but it should be fine. It was abdominal and the ladies that did it were absolutely lovely. I was so glad I went and at 8 weeks they even looked more like a baby. I'll attach a pic below 🥰

@Hopeful110 I got my 3+ at 22dpo so around the same time as @Sausage1990 ☺️

@Minster2012 I had bloods at my booking appointment I believe

@DJmum83 im sure your bump is looking lovely as are you 🥰

@Justanothercyster ooooooo you are there!! 🥰🤗ive started taking less of my loperamide to stop constipation 🤣fortunately I should be able to manage it like that and maybe avoid the problem 🤞🏻

Sorry to just stop my an not reply to anyone but I wanted to let you know in taking a few days off work on the sick. I just feel like I need to take a few more days to settle on the sickness tabs and rest & rehydrate. I felt really depleted at the end of the week and so I'm taking time to look after myself 👍🏻💕

@sausage1990 that sounds like a good plan lovely. Take some time to relax and rest xxx

@Justanothercyster hope all goes well today.

@Sausage1990 good I am glad you are taking time to look after yourself it’s more important than ever.

@DJmum83 also thinking of you today.

We have a beautiful and very bouncy healthy baby ❤️

@Sausage1990 sounds like the best plan, look after yourself 🥰💓😘

@Justanothercyster ONG look at that!! So beautiful! So many congratulations

@Kirky658 well I think that settled it that your ankle is bad!

@Justanothercyster aww lovely! 💕 😃

@lucyrp ohh I actually have ultrasound direct near me and I see they do charge £45 for that 8 week early scan. That would be better than £70 and more to see by week 8 👍 I'll probably go with that if I decide to go for one. Thanks!

@justanothercyster amazing scan pic, congrats!!! Xxx

@justanothercyster ahhh 💕💕💕 gorgeous scan!!! Glad everything is good!

@2020mission there's an app you can download too and they send you a link to the scan photos they have taken during your ultrasound and you can keep them forever on there. Also means you can screenshot them to your photos etc ☺️

@Justanothercyster amazing so happy for you!❤️

@Sausage1990 awww make sure you look after yourself lovely! ❤ work isn't important. X

@Justanothercyster omg how adorable!! Little fidget bum you have aye haha! Im so pleased it went well for you x

@lucyrp yeah I might book in for 2nd June so 9wk 2 days, that way there will be a good view 🤞
I'm so bloated and today I feel quite sick; my colleague done the Chinese calender prediction and reckons im gonna have a baby boy haha 🤞🤞

Thank you lovelies, I'm so relieved I can't express it. I just can't believe it can be so active and me not feel anything! Crazy. We got a cute pic of it sucking its thumb too haha.

Hope you're all ok 🥰

@Justanothercyster so pleased all is well! Lovely scan pic x

Gorgeous pic @Justanothercyster congratulations!

Sorry to hear you're still feeling rough @Sausage1990 but look after yourself. Hopefully a few more rest days and the meds will see you right!

@Justanothercyster aww yay!! Lovely scan picture so glad all is well, hope I have a similar experience on Thursday ☺️

Thank you 💛

@Florence13 I was going to say, you're next! I'm sure you will be blown away like we were, it's truly amazing seeing such a little thing jump around like that. Everything routing for good news for you x

@Justanothercyster aww I bet it is so amazing to see! Thank you hun keeping my fingers crossed, feel like time is almost slowing down x

@Florence13 the lead up to the scan is awful but so worth it x
