I got a lovely dye stealer this morning and I am so chuffed! After a CP in July, seeing that beautiful first line so dark is giving me great hope.

Anyone else 5 weeks? How are you feeling? Flowers

@charlotte0808 Did they tell you the cm of yours? Has your bleeding stopped? I've not had anything, not even a wipe of discharge so long may that continue. Thank you so much lovely! A huge relief having some answers and I just PRAY it's a great outcome and it goes away Flowers xx

Yeah think she said it was 1.5mm so tiny. Yours? Still having brown when I wipe didn't stop till nearly 2 weeks last time so think it'll be the same. Glad it's all better for you I'm sure you'll be fine just crazy seeing blood in pregnancy and how it's makes us worry and stress it's awful xx

babyboybluex · 12/11/2021 15:49

@charlotte0808 Oh yes that is small! I'm glad things are good for you, what a relief. Take it easy and relax!

Mine is 6cm... I'm literally not doing anything in the house for a while, my poor partner Wink I can't believe how common this all is! It feels better being in that group than unknown! xx

Bubba is definitely fine and chilling! 😂❤️ yes have him doing all the housework and cooking every meal I'm sure he will love it lol! We will probably end up in labour the same time at this rate too 😂 xx

LadyoftheWoods · 12/11/2021 16:01

Oh my gosh! Just caught up with your messages @babyboybluex! How stressful! Sounds like it's settled down now and fingers crossed that's the end of the bleeding.

I'm rhesus negative too! (A-) That's weird!

babyboybluex · 12/11/2021 16:05

@charlotte0808 I know! Thank goodness. Haha that made me laugh so much Grin Do you feel a bit more inclined to find out baby's sex? I don't know what it is but I didn't want to find out until birth before but now I feel like I need to know after all of this. The midwife today said it's got be a girl keeping me on my toes!! Flowers xx

@LadyoftheWoods Thank you sweetheart, I hope so as well. The stress is easing away thankfully. How are you doing? No way! It's funny how rare the blood group is yet a lot of pregnant women seem to have it! x

My partner is more eager to find out and wants to find out in the scan room straight away! He says 😂 so yeah I'll find out after all the trouble this past year I don't mind either I literally just want the baby lol xx

Snoopy28x · 12/11/2021 16:45

Should we all have a guess what we think we are gonna have? Then when they are born we can see if we were right! We wont be finding out so will be a longer wait lol

I'll go first.. I think mines a girl 🥰 xx

Blondiebrownie6 · 13/11/2021 17:09

Glad to hear all ok @babyboybluex what a rotten scary week for you!! And the wee pic of bubba again 🥰 so lovely you got to see him/her again! Lots of rest for you! So will the bleed just disappear on its own or will always be sitting there? ( not sure if that sounds a really stupid question lol)

Love that idea @Snoopy28x aww do you think girl? …. I think a wee boy for us, no idea why I just feel drawn to boy! But we have no preference either way as long as it’s a healthy happy bubba I’m good!

Done a 7 hour drive today from down south back up to Scotland and oh my god the tiredness is a lot I nearly stopped for a nap lol! I also think baby is quite low down on my bladder still as I constantly feel pressure and the need to pee but very little coming out! Made for an uncomfortable journey lol. Hope you’re all well xx

babyboybluex · 13/11/2021 17:14

@Blondiebrownie6 I know! I've seen bubba twice this week which has been magical ❤️

Pretty much I will pass the blood or the placenta will absorb it and it will go. I've had no bleeding for 72 hours so I'm hoping the placenta is being an angel and doing the work!! I think it's worse if you are bleeding heavily and cramping... it can cause a miscarriage 😖

Long journey for you Mrs! Do you live in Scotland? I'm a Scottish mumma 👋🏼 Hope you can get an early night and get your feet up! The pee situation is crazy 😂 NON STOP and I know you don't want to hear it but it gets worse 😜

Hope everyone has had a lovely Saturday x

Omg my hormones! I have been a giant ball of rage today. I've snapped at everyone. Had a meltdown because the house was a mess and was fed up as I'd cleaned it yesterday. Dh got the hint and got the hoover out. The kids avoided me lol then I suggested we all go out for a bit. Dh was playing on his phone so didnt hear me, kids have been driving me insane today being naughty. So I flipped at that, cried and said ill just go out shall i no one will notice! That hustled them into action. Dd has been screaming non stop for half an hour because I refused a fireworks display tonight due to their behaviour today. I am not #1 mummy today. Early night for all x

Blondiebrownie6 · 13/11/2021 18:30

So lovely @babyboybluex I can’t wait to see my one again, gonna see if I can hold out until 19th December! Feels a million miles away!

Ah I see, well fingers crossed that’s the placenta just taking it back in and no more scares in store for you! Lots of rest and relaxation :)

Aww amazing, hi 👋🏼 Well I’m from down South originally but lived up here years now, my partner is Scottish so this is home now. But like to head back down South when I can , gonna need to make it work often now as we’ll have a baby and want to make sure my mum and dad build up a relationship. Sad my mum won’t be close by but it will be ok.

Omg the bladder, I’ve really noticed it these past few days 😩 I was worried it could be a UTI but it doesn’t hurt to pee , I just feel pressure on my bladder lol. So strange and better prepare myself for the next 5/6 months 🙈

@Snoopy28x oh love, sounds like a rotten day, stupid hormones!! Just like to play havoc don’t they! But I mean I’d also be raging if the house was a tip after I’d just cleaned 🤣 I’ve all that to look forward to im years to come! I just currently moan at OH leaving his shoes in the middle of the floor or cups on the side but I have it easy really haha. Get the kiddies to bed and get yourself a cuppa and some chocolate or cake and try get your feet up for a quiet evening xx

babyboybluex · 14/11/2021 19:02

@Blondiebrownie6 It will come round fast I'm sure, you've got this! Are you booking a private scan?

I really hope so! It's my fourth day with no bleeding and bump is growing away 🤞🏼🎉

Awwww it will all work out! Lovely visits with you all, it will be a proper holiday just with someone extra special ❤️

No harm in ringing triage or your midwife for advice re an UTI! It takes seconds for them to check it out. Hope you are doing ok xx

@Snoopy28x How has today been? I hope you are ok and feeling more like yourself 💕

@charlotte0808 How is the bleeding lovely? Hope you are well!!

Thinking of everyone! I can't believe we are at Monday tomorrow already x

OP posts:
charlotte0808 · 14/11/2021 19:22

Hey all good no more bleeding or spotting so hopefully will not have any more! You doing ok? X

babyboybluex · 14/11/2021 19:32

@charlotte0808 Wonderful news! I'm so happy for you. The same here, everything is normal and looking promising!! xx

OP posts:
charlotte0808 · 14/11/2021 19:34

Seems like a long wait for 20 weeks scan mind. I'm unsure whether to have a private one in December before Xmas or not. I kind of want it to be a 'normal' pregnancy from now on and just wait like everyone else but there's always doubt isn't it x

Snoopy28x · 14/11/2021 19:36

@Blondiebrownie6 🤣😂 oh its joyous! We got a new rug for the lounge yesterday however the kids decided to drag it into the hall and move half the toys at the bottom of the stairs to make a shop lol I've just overlooked it today and it's still all sat there! My kitchen looks like a bombs hit it but I'm just leaving it all until tomorrow. Im alot less stressy today thank god! X

Snoopy28x · 14/11/2021 19:37

@babyboybluex yeah I'm much better today! Yesterday was awful lol

How are you feeling? I'm also needing to wee all the time! X

LadyoftheWoods · 15/11/2021 07:39

I reckon I'm having a girl... No idea why, just a hunch! We're not sure whether to find out or not. Last time they said 70% girl which was worse than not knowing really! I've always sort of wanted it to be a surprise but then at the scan I'm like "oh go on then!"

10+6 today and still feeling really sick. I'm fine in the morning then from about 3pm onwards I'm good for nothing! I'm hoping it'll settle down soon. 12 week scan is next Thursday, can't wait!

Do people have bumps yet?? I have the tiniest little one at the moment!

Snoopy28x · 15/11/2021 07:59

@LadyoftheWoods I have a little one, its definitely baby now rather than bloat I'm 13+3.

It will be exciting to see what we all have 🥰 we havent found out with the previous 2 so leaving this as a surprise to. I knew ds would be a boy, I was massive and he didnt stop moving day or night, still doesnt ha

If it gives you hope I feel pretty much normal since mid 11 week point. In enjoying it while it lasts lol I feel for you with the sickness!! Hopefully it will settle in the next week or so. So exciting for your scan! Xx

Blondiebrownie6 · 15/11/2021 13:49

@babyboybluex yer so my official 20wk is on 31/12 (I’ll be 21wks) but I have a private one booked for 19/12, taking my mum with me. We’ll get the gender at that scan and do a mini reveal type thing with close family on Boxing Day. Can’t wait for the scan! Countdown is on lol!
Couldn’t get GP appt today and midwifes have said speak to GP so will try again tomorrow! I Defos think something is going on as I’ve been sleeping so much , was in bed for 8.30 last night although could have easily gone about 6! When is your official scan?

Glad things have eased for you @charlotte0808 , I’m the same as you need a private one lol, although my private is only 12 days ahead of my Nhs one but at least can settle for xmas!

@Snoopy28x haha glad you had a more calming day, how’s your Monday going, good I hope :)

Xx

Snoopy28x · 15/11/2021 14:04

@Blondiebrownie6 I've got 2 poorly kids home today. So having a lazy movie day! I hope your doing ok xx

Snoopy28x · 16/11/2021 17:46

Evening ladies! How are you all?

I cannot stop weeing!! Its driving me loopy lol I must have been about 10 times today! I'm feeling little flutters 🥰 which is a lovely feeling. Has anyone else felt movement? Xx
