[laura109]

Even if you have to go down the longest road you will get there hun!! Hopefully nect year you will be carrying. It is so unfair but it's still going to happen hopefully somehow. Whens your next appointment again? Xx

How are you Lucy? I'm guessing you're around 12-13 DPO now.

As for me... Not much to report, I'm going to attempt to tell my boss again today, this is getting painful! Seems there is never a right time and I've probably convinced myself the news is going to go down like a lead balloon when he's actually quite a reasonable guy most of the time! Aggh wish me luck

.... I bet I come back saying I couldn't do it ha ha

 

[lucy_smith]

Af turned up yesterday

Feel like it's never going to happen

Once you tell your boss it will feel like a weight has lifted !! Just do it haha

 

[London Kiwi]

Aggh bloody hell AF, give Lucy a break!! Sorry hun x

Yes! It is like a weight lifted off my shoulders... I finally told my manager and he was actually delighted for me. Although sad too that I won't be at work for a while.
I feel so much better now!

 

[laura109]

How are you both? Im doing well energy wise now. Almost got everything in place. Just stressing over who will be looking after my daughter when i go into labour. Feeling abit like there's nobody to rely on today. Hormones making me abit teary this week. It seems that nobody takes much interest in second pregnancies family wise. Got so much tondo aswel and nobody to help. X

Hey Laura and Lucy,

I'm great thanks.... I'm still 100% fine, most boring pregnancy ever! If only I had a little something out of the ordinary but nope!

I am 19+3 today. Have our 20week scan on Thursday.

Laura can none of your family take your daughter? Or a close friend? I hope you can sort it out soon as you don't need the added stress.

Do you have any baby names sorted? Hmm feeling like you've told us before.

Lucy how are you getting on?
Are either of you heading on holiday? I feel like I want one!! Somewhere with sunshine ☀️

 

[laura109]

Hi hun family work etc but i guess someone will be about. My mums having a hip replacement soon as the other day her hip totally dislocated so she was my reliable person until her health deteriorated.

We are calling him freddie what about your little lady? Are u excited for your scan?

Its great you feel well as you know baby is doing well xx

 

[London Kiwi]

Awww I LOVE Freddie! It was on the top of my list for boys! 💙

We struggle to agree on names so if you ladies have any suggestions throw them my way!
Jane is the middle name. That's my husbands mothers name, she passed away last year so he wants her name as the middle name. My mother also passed away about 9months before her but her name doesn't work with our last name so happy with Jane.

First names are tough. My husband doesn't like anything I like! I quite like unisex names for Girls whereas he doesn't.
I've voted anything in the top 10 names whereas he loves all of them
Haha we can't agree!

We have a small list:
Matilda (husbands number one choice but I am not sure about the nick name Tilly as I know a lot of dogs called Tilly. Yes silly reason I know!)
Heidi - just kinda cute for a little girl
Husband likes poppy
I like Georgia and Luella (husband dispises this name!)

So yeah... Any suggestions?!?!

Sorry to hear about your mum Hun. Hopefully the op will fix her and she'll be as good as new! X

Just wanted to update you all, my BFP ended up being a CP. Got AF on Aug 5th, bloodwork confirmed CP.
Very sad, but at least OPKs were positive on CD13 so CP didn't really mess with my normal cycle.
I will get through this, I am currently again on the TWW but this time I won't test this early to avoid disappointment.
Good luck to you all!

 

[laura109]

Haha funnily enough i had matilda on my list lol. I had mia & millie. I think jane goes lovely with anything like lacey jane. My little girl is called Sienna Kathryn. Kathryn was a tribute to her great granny catherine who died when i was 5 months pregnant. She was my partners granny.

I like Ava, Amelia, Evie, Heidi is so cute too that you said!! I like jessica & Hannah too. Girls names are so beautiful and so much choice. My partner loves Georgia too he suggested that for Sienna's middle name before his granny died.

Thank you my mums having an op soon ringing up Tuesday for her date so hopefully by Christmas my dad and mum could be ok to help but will see!

Xx

Aww i am so sorry xx i have had that twice once in 2013 and once last year. Absolutely frustrating to get a positive test followed by bleeding. I remember feeling really upset but hold on in there for it will happen i know it feels like it wont but when it does it will feel perfect for you. The blessing i felt from going through those early losses was when I became pregnant with my daughter & son (carrying him now) i felt happy that things went the way they did because I wouldn't have them if that makes sense. Please feel free to chat to me if u need a talk xx

Hey Laura and Lucy - how are you both getting on?
Woke up so early today, it's been a productive morning already.
Heading for a swim soon, annoyingly the local pool doesn't open until 8 on the weekends or I'd be in there by 6!
Nothing much to report from me, just wanted to say hi as it's been a while...👋🏽
22 weeks on Monday, seems to be flying by. Now Sept is here and it's starting to get a bit colder we are on the downward slide to Christmas and then she will be here.
A weekend of sorting crap out for me. I have bulging clothes drawers and wardrobes! Can't wait ha.
Hope all is good with you both x

 

[laura109]

Hi kiwi sounds like you are on a roll its lovely with your first baby as you still have abit of you time ������ my daughter has been a handful lately bedtime is just not happening with her so me & my partner are shattered. Id say we are almost living seperate lives as one of us is always sleeping with the toddler and not enough room for 3 in our bed. Hoping it improves next week as she starts 2 mornings at nursery.

Today we are decorating my toddler room. Shes having a whole new room so baby can have her little one. Im 24 weeks tomorrow. Got a right little mover now he wont stop kicking. Im so excited to have him here now and start the next chapter. I think next month will feel like we are getting really close. Weve got alot of his stuff now mainly need a changing mat, bath stuff, sheets and blankets. Got his sleepsuits up to
One month. Hoping they fit him. My daughter had first size from next and they never fit her but the ones i have from boots are at least an inch longer. Have you noticed the sizes vary everywhere?

We are going to mothercare baby bond on the 17th for a 4d scan. Ill be 26 weeks. Really excited about it i had one with my daughter and it was just amazing.

Hope you are well lucy. I dont know about you 2 but im ready for auntumn

Enjoy your swim kiwi xx

[lucy_smith]

Thanks for calling in girls !! Currently in the 2ww, I'm 8dpo and due af on Tuesday.

had an appointment with an ivf clinic last week!!!!
I've got to wait 4-5 weeks for some blood tests to get done and then they will book me in for the appointment to sign the papers to start ivf! Fingers crossed I will have had my 1st round by xmas !

You guys getting organised for your babies? Can't believe how far along you are already!!!

 

[London Kiwi]

Wow Lucy, this is so super exciting!
It's great that they move at such a fast pace.
You must be pleased to have the ball rolling
You hear of so many people getting pregnant while waiting for IVF so that might happen for you too, you'll have to keep us posted! Very excited for you!

Laura sounds like things are very full on for you. I imagine having a toddler while pregnant must be really tough at times.
Love to hear all about the decorating!

Today I've been doing a bit of decorating myself. My husbands friend is a decorator so he painted the babies room last week, I've spent the day staining the woodwork around the windows, looks great.
I really fancy dragging all the furniture in and setting it up but I imagine I can't do it alone, my husband is out and will no doubt question why I ask him to carry the washing all the time if I can drag a wardrobe around haha. I shall wait patiently for him to help me.

Apart from that I've not done a lot, trying to avoid the shops as there is so much stuff I want to buy and I really don't need it! My friends have organised me two baby showers in Nov so I'm really lucky. I wasn't that bothered about having one to be honest but they all insisted. I have one with my New Zealand friends and my husbands mates wives/girlfriends have organised me another. So will only buy essentials until after those and see what I'm missing.

22 weeks tomorrow, time does seem to be going quickly.

Like you Laura, I'm ready for autumn. I LOVE the heat but I also love autumn too. I live in an area with woods and it's very green so it's a pretty time of the year around here.

Have a good week ladies x

 

[lucy_smith]

Little update from me

Af turned up, surprise surprise!

But on the up side I'm hoping this is my last cycle before I start ivf!

 

[London Kiwi]

Ah crap Lucy!
But as you said, potentially your last cycle before IVF.
It's great that you have that in the near future.

My sister had IVF and I know have a gorgeous 8month old niece.

Excited for you Lucy!

 

[lucy_smith]

How are u guys getting on?
