1st m/c January, 2nd m/c May, still trying for 3rd BFP

[A1983]

Pps side by hips is our hb, middle is placenta and baby...placenta is more whooshy and baby is a wow wow wow noise like a train or horse and sometimes clicks...on a post ive recently put up someone has included a great youtube video showing the difference, it really helped me as placenta and baby are literally millimetres apart on my doppler atm but I know the difference in the sounds now

Love that you recorded it that's awesome!

I think we are booking our trip today I am very excited
I also booked a app with my doc for feb 6 so if no af when I get back ill go

I'm stil taking the vitex it's been just over a week now, I didn't try soy
My temp is back up just a little above coverline today so I did her my cross hairs back but I know I could loose them again so ill not get excited and just keep tempting until we go

Mrs & Manny ~ How sweet the baby names are!

1983 ~ I hope I get to the point where I feel safe enough to get a Doppler! I think DH wants to go next week for a 10 week scan (since he missed the 8 week), but we'll see...you know the anxiety associated with a scan up to 12 weeks! yikes!

Starry ~ Yay for your scan putting you ahead of schedule!

Bazz ~ I hope you book your vacay today! I'm still amazed by your patience! Feb 6 will give you close to a 90 day cycle~~unheard of! Good on ya for your will to wait. FX you get a BFP before the 6th!

AFM ~ All is well. Just trying not to read too much into the symptoms that fade out...I am hoping what I have read is most accurate (symptoms can fade around 9-10 weeks as the placenta starts to take over). DH comes home tomorrow...it'll be nice having him home!

Angel- i really do not have patience lol! i am so frustrated with my body i blame myself for not being pregnant yet... i will be on CD 85 I think by Feb 6th so they better do something about it if no AF then... I was going to go to the doctor before my trip but incase they want to schedule blood and ultrasounds I will wait until I get back

We have decided on Mexico and are plannign to leave next thursday for 7 nights!!

glad you are feeling well and symtoms do come and go so dont worry! and yay for DH being home this weekend!!!

 

[xoxo4angel]

AMAZING! 7 days sounds lovely! I bet you are looking forward to getting out of the It is NOT your fault for not being preggers. You are doing all you can, so don't EVEN let that get to you. It is technically the 1st Dr's fault for not following through with you like he/she should have! You'll get there...in the meantime que bueno Mexico! What a great, much needed, distraction for you! xoxo

 

[bazzb]

thank you Angel xo that makes me feel better

It is offically booked we leave next thursday and I cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!! whoo hoo

 

[A1983]

Woo Bazz, you'll have an amazing time.. and escape this horrible cold weather! How hot is it there?!

Well sex, or should I say the big o is off the menu for this pregnancy! First time we had some fun since bfp was this morning due to me feeling too sick and a bit nervous...but I have been mildly cramping since so for nearly 4 hours and it's just not worth it! Do you ladies get this? Admittedly it wasn't sex this morning...just a bit of dual play (sorry tmi!) So ill just try sex with no big o next time and see if that hopefully doesn't cause cramping. Im fine with it and oh says he is!! Tbh if anything was to happen it would not be worth it!

 

[bazzb]

It's about 27-30 C there

I know exactly how u feel, my hubby had ready stated no sec for us until after the 11 week mark if we get pregnant again!

Hey everyone.

Brrr, we have snow! Although we seem to have got off lightly compared with other parts of the UK. We live on a hill, and it doesn't take a lot of snow to stop cars being able to get up/down our road. We've had whole days in the past with every neighbour digging snow outside the houses before anyone can get out! We are fairly rural, so one time a friend of a neighbour came down and cleared it with a tractor for us, but no chance of the grifters and snow ploughs coming down here! Anyway, not too bad this time, and not snowed in, but still taking it as an excuse to not go too far coz last thing I need is a slip on my bum! It's a good excuse to get a bit of housework done too I guess....

Someone asked a few days ago abt our choice of pram. We've got a silver cross surf. We chose this because its chassis is designed for taller parents. We r both 6 foot tall, and it really makes my back ache when I push other people's prams that are not high enough for me. Plus it's handle slides down lower really simply, as my MIL is quite small and I know she plans to do her fair share of pram pushing!! Also, it's like a travel system with car seat, carry cot, and pram/buggy adjustable seat thing, that all clip on and off same chassis.

We got a really good deal, got it nearly half price off the Internet.

It's a bit of a minefield when u start looking coz there r just so many different things, different options.... But we went to a few big baby shops, asked the staff to show us a couple of different things, taking into account the tall handle thing, and we really quickly whittled it down to either the silver cross surf, or the bugaboo chameleon. I liked both, both were good in different ways etc. then read some reviews and the silver cross reviews knocked spots off the other. So that made our minds up!

Oh hey guys, I finally made a ticker! U will have to let me know whether I've done it right or not....!

Bazz Mexico sounds like just what the doctor ordered. Have a lovely time xxx

 

[bazzb]

Thanks mrs

You ticker is working perfectly

Sorry u got a bit of snow, I really hate the stuff!

 

[A1983]

It's been snowing constantly today! Im staying put!

How often do you use your dopplers mrs&manny? I told myself id only use it once or twice a week but it's been more like...daily :-/ its so addictive as so reassuring but I think baby is swimming away from it now as I hear hb but after a few seconds it goes quiet then after I few minutes I find him a bit further along..and he moves again so now I feel guilty for using it but am so grateful for the reassurance! So going to not use it til Wednesday!

 

[A1983]

Ps officially second trimester now ♥♥

 

[bazzb]

Yay for being in the second trimester that is a huge goal!!!!

 

[bazzb]

I'm guessing pram is what I would call a stroller correct?

 

[A1983]

Yep

 

[bazzb]

Thanks for clarifying

Hi Ladies - happy Monday!

Bazz - still nothing? I see your status is "Angry" and I can understand why!! At least your holiday week is upon you! So exciting! Where in Mexico are you going? And have you been before? I've never been but DH has and he loved it!

A1983 - RE the doppler, I found that my LO would also move away from it and I started feeling guilty about using it. I only used it once every few days - twice a week at most. Since I started feeling regular movement at about 17 weeks, I packed it away and haven't used it since. I'm sure it won't be long until you can do the same.

Mrs - thanks for the advice about the pram/ stroller. I agree - it is a minefield out there. Every time we start looking, we back out again because its so confusing! Are there still some good sales going on in the UK? I might be there in a couple of weeks and I'm wondering if I should look for some stuff there. Its so expensive in SA!

All good this side. Had a very busy weekend so I was actually quite excited to come to work and sit in one place for 8 hours. Poor DH is driving me crazy and it really isn't his fault. I am a bit of a hormonal b***h at the moment and he seems to be the easiest target. Trying to remember to stay calm with him or I might end up being a single parent! I have a scan tomorrow which I am really looking forward to. Will hopefully get some new pics that I can post and will also be keeping a close eye out for baby's bits and bobs. We're not finding out gender but if I see "accidentally", then its ok!!

xx

 

[bazzb]
