AF on 20th - Anyone else?

[London Kiwi]

Really nice to keep busy, I have alot on this week and then Spain - yay! Last little bit of sunshine before autumn fully sets in.

CD19 for me today....
I dont know how I feel this month. I dont think i was lucky enough to conceive... damn it! I started temping last month so this is month 2 so i am a bit confused. I had a massive temp increase last month after I ovulated but this month it hasnt happened, I got positive OPKs and I felt some cramps so pretty confident I did ovulate but the temps would indicate maybe I didnt. On the other hand, there is a slight increase... (just not as much as last month) but when I ovulated last month London was hotter than the sun so maybe that had an affect on the reading #CONFUSED!

Guess i'll just wait and see!

Hey Ladies,

CD21 for me today... havent thought too much about conceiving this cycle, quite weird; i seem very content and just think there's no chance it happened.

I've still been temping in the mornings but I think im going to stop, its just confusing me! I finally got a temp rise today but suspected i Ov'd around CD15 so that seems really late for the temp increase... so yep, giving up! ha.

Only tomorrow left in the office then Spain for 4-days of Sunshine, I cant wait!

Hope you're all well

That's good that you're not dwelling on it. It doesn't change either way so why rack your brain trying to figure it out.
So we just found out the one girl that occasionally helps us at work, is having triplets! About 4 or so months ago we were just talking about having babies. She said they tried for over a year but wasn't ovulating. So I'm not sure if she took clomid or anything. We didn't get details yet. So I will wait for her to talk about it on her own.
It's crazy!

Tis the season for conceiving, I guess!

 

[London Kiwi]

Wow Triplets!! Thats craziness!!
Delighted for her though, thats great to hear.

I am still waiting for my referral letter, I might call my Doctor today to make sure that they actually contacted them.

I know im not out till AF shows, but I feel very out this month... still 6days to go but I just know!

Spain tomorrow woo!

 

[Pne1985]

How is it in Spain? Hope you are enjoying your trip! And how are you feeling...af would be due in a few days right?

I wonder how Stick and Rose are doing?

 

[London Kiwi]

Spain is lovely thank you!! ☀️🌴
It was my birthday yesterday, had a lovely day just lazing around in the sunshine... Prob drank a little too much, Opps!
AF is due on Weds so I expect some spotting on Tues.

Yes I wonder how the other ladies are - hectic lives I assume. Sticky has such a big family it's amazing she can log in at all!

 

[Pne1985]

Oh happy belated birthday London!! I hope it was one to remember, maybe not so clearly though!

Any signs of af yet? I hope she decided to go for a long vacation herself!

And I know, I feel overwhelmed some days and then I remember people like Sticky who are superhuman and juggling 10 times the amount I am!

 

[London Kiwi]

Thanks Pne, was a fabulous birthday! Just so nice to get away for a few days.
I love getting away, no matter where just away from work!

Of course AF arrived... Was due yesterday and had no sign of her all day, a teeny bit of spotting last night and a very light AF today but she's here. Bitch. Ha.
I'm not even that bothered, would've been nice to see a BFP but I think I'd convinced myself that it wasn't to be.
I had the hospital call today And my gynaecologist appt is booked in for end of October - that's the earliest I could get. So another full cycle then seeing her/him at the end.
So if it doesn't happen next cycle atleast I will have more knowledge on what's going on etc which is positive.

Hope all you preggers ladies are well! 😘

 

[Pne1985]

I'm glad you had a nice birthday!!

And that is good to hear that you have your appointment booked. What are they going to look for or do?

I ended up coming down with a nasty cold and a horrible cough, which usually happens every time I get sick. So I haven't been able to sleep hardly at all considering it's worse at night and I can't take anything to suppress it to get a little bit of shut eye. I feel like a zombie right now. My mom kept our son last night so I was on the couch at 7 trying to get as much sleep as possible!! And my phone broke the other day so I'm looking into replacing it without paying a fortune because it is just a little over a year old.

Anyway, I hope the rest of the ladies are feeling great!!

 

[London Kiwi]

Yes the Doctor at the end of the month... you know they were actually really vague about what they were going to do, they mentioned a scan and checking for any blockages in the tubes - Fingers crossed maybe they find something thats easily fixable.

CD7 for me today, these cycles seem to be flying around and i'll be ovulating again soon enough!

Hope you feel better soon Pne. Nothing worse than feeling rough. Except maybe a broken phone!! how annoying

 

[Pne1985]

Good morning!! I don't seem to get on here as much since I don't have my phone. I should be receiving my replacement today.

Any signs of ovulation yet London? Boy, the cycles do seem to just keep flying around for you, which is awesome!! And my sister in law had that done with her tube as well. I feel like that is the first step besides checking over the basics with you and your other half. I hope that goes well.

It is officially fall here, the temperature has dropped, it is beautiful out and I am feeling 100% better so I am going to try to get some walking outside in. I feel like this week that I was sick, I went from not showing to looking like I'm 30 weeks pregnant! Haha.

Hope you pregnant ones are doing well! Keep us updated on the gender, and how things are going!

 

[MissRoseMama]

Yea we will find out this time, I'm sure. My mother in law's birthday is October 20th and my husband's is the 26th and we will find out the 18th so it would be neat to have them put it in an envelope and either one of them can open it.

London, how did your appointment go?

Sticky and Rose, how are you ladies doing?

Hello again ladies!!

Things have been okay with me. 16 weeks 2 days today but baby is consistently measuring about 4-5 days ahead, but then Gabrielle did that so I am happy with that.

Still getting morning sickness here and there. I actually had some this morning and had it last week after 4 weeks of nothing.

Because I'm old as dirt, I had a blood test that among other things also tells you the gender based on the chromosomes. I am having another little girl, which I am very happy about. Makes it easier in many ways!

I had an elective ultrasound today (I try to get at least one a week because I get so scared) and she looked so big! She is always very active in the ultrasounds (although I only very subtly feel her, and I'm not even sure it's her half the time. The 3D is just so cool - it's amazing to see how much they change from one week to the next 😍

How are you ladies doing? Are you finding out the sex pne?

 

[Pne1985]

Good morning!!
Rose, that is great that she is measuring ahead. I'm sure that is very reassuring. And congratulations on another girl! Is Gabrielle excited?
It is so neat seeing them on the 3D ultrasound s but at the same time it makes my stomach feel weak. Haha. It think because it shows that your pregnancy is totally real.

I am doing well. We will find out the gender on Tuesday at our 20 week ultrasound.

London, how are things moving along??

 

[London Kiwi]

Hey Ladies,

I've had one of those hectic weeks at work so haven't really had the chance to log in. Today im having a lazy couch day so here I am!

Rose I was laughing about your "old as dirt" comment! That's me as well haha.

So happy to hear that all is well and another girl yay!!

Pne - can't wait to hear the sex of your baby, make sure you log in to let us know 😊

CD17 for me today. I appear to have a temp spike today indicating I've ovulated but I still don't quite understand the whole temping thing so not sure if it's accurate. I got positive OPKs on CDs 13 and 14 so think i prob ovulated on CD15 meaning I'm 2DPO but it's all a guessing game to me, ha.

I don't know why but I don't feel as bothered this month, obviously I really want to get that BFP but I've got my gynaecologist appointment the day after AF is due so if she doesn't show up atleast I'll get some answers hopefully.

Would be fab if I had to call and cancel because I got my BFP though! 😊

 

[Pne1985]

London, not much longer until af is suppose to arrive and your appointment. So either way, you'll accomplish something!

We had our ultrasound today, and there is a very healthy baby girl in there! We are both in shock. Never really thought I would have a girl but we are excited and my husband is already being super protective of her! Haha. He is nervous for the teenage years.

I will try to log in more often. I pulled a muscle near my ribs while coughing so that has literally been a pain. And starting last night, I came down with hives. And today my legs started itching so they spread from my feet to my legs. I have no idea what is going on. This damn cold I caught, wrecked havoc on me! Haha

 

[London Kiwi]

Oh yay! A little princess, such good news Pne! haha I love that your husband is worrying about the teenage years already.
So you're having a girl, Rose is having a girl, I wonder what Sticky has cooking away?

Sounds like you're in the wars Pne, I hope you feel better soon. Nothing worse than being itchy!

All is well here... AF is due on 26th.
Too early for any symptoms or AF cramps etc, so im in limbo! I feel ok this cycle knowing I have my appointment the day after AF is due. Either way i'll get some answers soon.

Its starting to get cold in London and the days are getting shorter - winter is coming! But on a nice note, all the christmas bits are starting to come into the shops (a little premature I think!) but i do love that christmassy winter feeling

 

[Pne1985]

Yea, he worries so much. He said he just knows how some guys think. Haha.

I know, I wonder if she found out yet or is finding out at all?

I'm glad you are good with whatever happens. that's such a great attitude to have. And I agree with you on the weather. It actually is in the 70's right now but that's because a warm front came through. It will be dropping back into the 50's. I love the holidays, the music and everything! Although I do think it is a little early. It comes so quickly and bam, it's over! It's so upsetting after the new year!

 

[London Kiwi]

Hi Ladies
Been missing in action, sorry!
Work has been hectic, we are migrating to a new system so there has been a lot of boring data work to be done - mind numbing!!
AF is due on Weds. I wasn't feeling any BFP or AF symptoms but tonight I'm starting to get that blah feeling in my belly so i think she's on the way - the bitch!!! 😉
Have my gynaecologist appt on Thurs morning so I'm feeling positive about getting some answers!

 

[Pne1985]

London, keep us updated on your appointment. Or any other news!

How are you other ladies doing? Feeling any movement yet? I'm finally starting to feel her move around and it is so exciting! I can't wait until I can actually feel her outside of my belly.
My husband said the other day that he thinks he finally came to terms that we are having a girl. He is an amazing dad, he just likes what he knows and I think was nervous about raising a girl since we have a boy. I'm so relieved though because he goes through periods of anxiety and somewhat depression and he started to after our scan. I already have seen a huge difference in him! Thank goodness it didn't last long!

 

[London Kiwi]

Oh that's lovely to hear Pne! Delighted that he's coming around to the idea of a girl.
Plus she's going to have a big brother looking out for her anyway!
Amazing that you're feeling her moving around, must be so lovely for you.

Well I have the most pathetic spotting ever today. It's nearly non existent but I assume AF is just around the corner.

Gynae appointment tomorrow.
I've no idea what to expect.
I don't know if it's just a consultation or they will do the scans on my tubes. Don't know if it's a male or female - it's all a mystery!!
