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

999 replies

Sausage1990 · 24/03/2021 10:18

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 Flowers

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 Smile 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...

@Sausage1990 what time is your scan today? how many weeks will you be ?🥰💛

Sausage1990 · 07/05/2021 07:36

@lucyrp it's just after 11am. Accordingto my measurements from the last scan I'm 9+4 but according to my calculations from FW I'm 10+1... So somewhere around there.

Good luck today @Sausage1990, you got this! Xxx

Fab scan @TTCAbroad xx

Florence13 · 07/05/2021 08:43

@TTCAbroad aww fantastic scan but sorry to hear about your BP hopefully it settles.

@Sausage1990 thinking of you today and looking forward to your scan update.

@Kirky658 aww lovely bump pic. No sign of a bump yet for me but be a FTM guess it may take another few weeks.

Kirky658 · 07/05/2021 08:59

@sausage1990 thinking of you and look forward to your updates ❤️
@florence13 ah thanks lovely. It appeared out of nowhere about 16 weeks onwards! I keep looking wistfully at my 12 week photos 😂

I'm a complete and utter worry arse. There, I've said it. I've convinced myself that I'm leaking amniotic fluid because I'm getting a lot of discharge down there particularly while running (unsure if it's sweat or what sorry tmi!) . I know I'm being stupid and it's so unlikely but I can't deal with the anxiety! Don't want to tell DH or ring the midwife as I know realistically it's nothing to worry about most likely!

SamoyedFan123 · 07/05/2021 09:02

@Sausage1990 good luck for today - try to enjoy it xxx
@ttcabroad what a lovely scan pic, glad it went well. They will keep a close eye on your BP don't worry xxx

Thinkingandblinking · 07/05/2021 09:13

@Kirky658 you can get pads that change colour if it is fluid, sure it’s not but if you want to put your mind at rest! X

Kirky658 · 07/05/2021 09:37

@thinkingandblinking that's a good idea! I'm just concerned as my friend next door, she had her baby boy this week by c section but they found out on a growth scan she'd been leaking fluid and they didn't know it had been happening! So I guess I'm just panicking. I'm trying to decide if to ring the midwife or not, I really don't want to have to go to the hospital on my own and wait for hours...

2020mission · 07/05/2021 10:26

Just popping in to say luck today @Sausage1990!

lucyrp · 07/05/2021 10:49

@Sausage1990 fingers crossed for you!💛

@Kirky658 I don't think you need to worry as I also have so much discharge. If I could I would change my knickers half way through the day. I feel like I'm bleeding or weeing myself most of the time x

Minster2012 · 07/05/2021 11:52

@Kirky658 it's just one big worry isn't it!

Anyone got any Hinch like tips on how to safely clean the base of my oven?? 🤔

Sausage1990 · 07/05/2021 11:53

Girls I'm afraid it's bad news. There was no heartbeat and baby stopped growing at 9 weeks again. 💔💔💔

Nooo @Sausage1990 😭 that's so not fair! I'm heartbroken for you 💔 don't even know what to say

Thinkingandblinking · 07/05/2021 12:48

I’m so sorry @Sausage1990 please take care of you and hubby, it’s shit, I mean really shit and it just shouldn’t happen.

Sausage1990 · 07/05/2021 14:32

Thanks girls. I appreciate the love. I'm in shock still, absolutely gutted & just feeling a bit broken...

Ive got a telephone call on Monday with the Dr to plan the next steps but we do know that they will send off the pregnancy to be tested to see if we can find out why this is happening, and I'll be referred to the reoccuring miscarriage clinic.

We're now just at home drinking tea & watching The Hobbit. Didn't really know what else to and sitting in silence didn't feel right. 💔
