Well, aren't we a chatty lot?

I had my booster at 8 weeks - no side effects except a sore arm!

@beansprout55 I also conceived with Letrozole... which cycle did you catch on?

13 weeks today! Feeling so bloated though

@DaimDillyDoo ahhh yay another letrozole babe! Miraculously it was our first cycle!! Didn't think it would happen either abs follicle growth was slow and only one, it got up to 14mm then they stopped scanning me. We thought next cycle I'd need a bigger dose or something - somehow that follicle much have had a massive growth spurt just before I ovulate. Absolute miracle!xx
What about you??xx

@HWka I've just had a week of cramps from 12.5-13.5 weeks. It was worrying but no bleeding and it seems better now, I've read it can be your uterus expanding x

@Prema112 thank you! yes I’ve read that too so hopefully it’s all normal! I wonder if I’ll ever be able to relax in this pregnancy haha!

@CurryandSnuggle Tonight DH & I are having a curry and snuggling down to a movie- made me think of you

@HWka It's so hard to relax isn't it! I'm really gonna try not stress after my scan on Tuesday, don't wanna spend the entire pregnancy worried!

My '12' week scan tomorrow, but going off when I had my private scan (dated me 9 weeks 3 days ) I'll be 13 plus 4. The nausea and tiredness eased off about a week ago. Still sore boobs. I'm so paranoid it's going to end up a missed miscarriage or something because of loss of symptoms. Wish me luck!

@beansprout55 ahh what lovely news! Especially that you thought you were out Second cycle for us, although we also caught on the first cycle but sadly lost it. Letrozole has been great, I barely had any side effects and it worked both times! X

@DaimDillyDoo @beansprout55
So glad you both had success with letrozole, we had nine months and unfortunately never any success hence why we went forward with ivf.

Always so happy to hear success stories ❤️

@DaimDillyDoo @beansprout55 @unknownscot

I conceived on my second round of clomid. Genuinely thought I’d never get this far.

Pregnancy announcements used to hit me hard. Just went through “why me” thoughts.

I still find pregnancy announcements hit me hard though

Part of my message is missing. Was going to say I still find pregnancy announcements hard. I forget I am pregnant and also maybe the fear that it won’t end up going well so still find the announcements hurt. Do any of you feel like that.

@HWka 11+4 and still have cramps 😞

@Clomid1
Yeah, I know what you mean exactly.

It's the reason I'm definitely not doing a SM pregnancy post. The anxiety of infertility doesn't stop when you get pregnant. Until I have that baby in my arms I'll be a riot!

@Prema112 Aww cute, hope you enjoyed it :D When I signed up to mumsnet I had had a curry and snuggle night, which inspired my username lol.

@unknownscot Agree. We will party (in a very limited fashion) once LO is with us, and not before. Feelings may change over we get to trimester 3 I guess, but for now it feels very far from a done deal.

Hi ladies
Long time lurker on this group but never felt brave enough to post, had a m/c in July and now 11+3 today so very anxious. Had a scan at 9 weeks which went well so waiting for my 12 week scan on the 9th - EDD 16th June
Congratulations to all of you. Your conversations have kept me sane (I sound like such a stalker!)
I have read a few people mention weight gain in the first trimester and I'm so glad I'm not the only one!! I already was a size 14 and now I have definitely gained a LOT of just fat I'm sure, so have invested in maternity trousers already
And yes to the social media announcements making you feel sad/ scared - I'm still the same. @clomid1 Or even seeing pregnant women in their 3rd trimester, I am still so anxious. I had spotting around 7 weeks like a lot of ladies here too
Anyway lovely to finally be able to bring myself to post on here ladies x

@HWka I've had what I think are round ligament pains rather than straight cramps - they feel like pulsating stabs.
Is anyone having their scan this week? We are on Thursday morning. Bit concerned I'm more excited about the nausea easing off than anything though, I'm such a terrible sick person!!

@CurryandSnuggle It's one of the best ways to spend an evening in my opinion!

@Turniptracker I am about 12 weeks today and have my scan on Wednesay. The nerves are over the roof!

Embarrasing question ladies but is anyone suffering from severe trapped wind and bloating. Ive had a few episodes of really horrible trapped wind . Nothing seems to work. Even got that rennie which said for trapped wind didnt work. :(

@clomid1 were you on metaformin? Have they said how many weeks to continue it?

Me too! Mines this afternoon. I can't focus on work for nerves! Xx

Good luck ladies having your 12 week scans this week! Keep us posted with pics! Mine is next week and I’m so nervous already 😂 xx

Good luck ladies with scans this week! @Unarosaes Woohoo yours has finally come around!

@MrsTwentyNine welcome! Great that you've already had a scan at 9 weeks
