Greenpear- I'm not sure about implatation after a bfp, but that line on ur test is clear as day! How many dpo are u now?

 

[SLCMommy]

Greenpear - I'm thinking that unless you are seeing actual red blood, and enough of it...it was just some kind of early bleeding. That test is definitely positive, and although the "pinkish" might not be implantation bleeding, it just could mean your uterus is a tad irritated by the hormone changes and the fact it's been invaded haha

 

[greenpear]

Well, I'm about 14 dpo today and I'm just sad because that's exactly how last one started - first it was barely visible pink, then it progressed into brighter and brighter till it was all red...and then came pain and hell known as MC

I'm sorry I don't mean to be negative, especially when everyone is so excited for their bfp's

I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I know I won't relax till I see a heartbeat on US


Sticky to everyone!

greenpear - I'm sorry But could it be implantation bleeding? FX this little beanie is snuggled into your lining and stays there!

Can implantation bleeding happen after you get your bfp? This is what my test looked like on Thursday at roughly 12 dpo and I didn't get any spotting before that but I'm not an expert...

No honey I'm sorry. You can't get implantation bleeding post HPT. The egg has to implant in order for the HcG to be detected in the mother's blood system or urine (after the blood is cleansed by the kidneys). I hate that this is happening to you. I wish I could take it away or at least give you a hug. Don't give up. Let's home that it's just normal spotting which does happen. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Hello everyone. Have you ladies been thinking about baby names yet? Anyone wishing for a certain gender? I have a 6 year old girl, a 4 year old son, and a 3 year old son...so I really am wanting a girl. Although, I will be happy and feel blessed regardless of the gender, there is just a slice of my heart going into this in hopes that this baby is a little girl. We are undecided for middle names just yet, but for a girl we decided Charlotte & for a boy, Liam. We are not letting our families know what name we are going to pick before the baby is born. We don't want to hear "I do/don't like that" or "hey, I wanted that name for my baby" etc..etc... That stuff is so immature and gets old REALLY quick. I mean, this is such a special time in our lives and I have a sister in law that's already given in a laundry list of things that I can and cannot do with this child. (She is 18, married). She even scolded me...get this.... told me that I CANNOT have a child with red hair. How can I help that?! That SHE wants to be the one to have a red-headed baby! (red hair runs in our family but so far all the kiddos have been blonde in the babies generation) She told me awhile ago when she found out I loved the name Charlotte we cannot use that name because when her & her DH have a girl, they want to name her Scarlett because her DH had a little sister named Charlotte that died and that want to keep her memory alive by naming their daughter a name similar to his sister's name. First off, she's not pregnant. 2nd, Forgive me if I seem harsh...but as heartbreaking is that his little sister died (a few years ago) I don't know my sister in laws husband that well. I'm fairly new to the family, I never knew her husbands sister, his mom, dad, etc... or anything. I thought of Charlotte independently. If they wanted to name her Charlotte for that reason, than I'd be more understanding but they want to name their future daughter (if they ever have one) Scarlett which to me are two separate names. We still plan on using Charlotte, and if she wants to have a tantrum, she can.
Anyways! Our ideas that we'd actually use are:

Charlotte Lucille
Charlotte Lucy
Charlotte Kate
Charlotte Norah
Charlotte Ashley (my name is Ashley)
Charlotte Junia
Charlotte Estelle

...and, we haven't gotten very far on Liam. lol!

 

[greenpear]

I like name Norah but Charlotte is nice too!


If my bean sticks then it will be Anya for a girl and Misha (Michael) for a boy

 

[Viking15]

We are both hoping for a boy. Although I keep seeing baby girls and they are awfully cute. My sister had two girls and I am just know my dad would love a grandson.
I love the names Alexander and Isabel. My DH is insisting on Alessandro, but that is fine. I could still call him Alex

 

[LilDreamy]

I like Charlotte Estelle the best! Sounds so beautiful!

And I kow what you mean with not telling family what you want to name your baby.

I told my mom I like the name "Maddex" for a baby boy... And my oh my did she have her negative opinions on that. Gosh mad me so upset. I really loved the name and feel I can't name the baby that anymore.

Blehg... OH wants to name our son, if we're having a boy, after him. And quite frankly... I don't like his name at all. It happens to be my brothers name as well. He wants to name hime "Joseph" . I think naming a child after yourself is just plain silly. But there is no getting him to change his mind.
So if we have a boy... hopefully it is twins... so I can name one what I want. Lol.

And if it's a girl... I'm not sure.
People say the name Arianna is used too much... which I never knew this.
And I like the name Hazel and Sadie. So not sure really. I'm really hoping to continue looking until I find a really good name.

 

[Babykiser]

Ohhh I like Charlotte Kate!!! Very nice!
I like the names you other ladies picked out as well!

Dh and I would like to have a little boy for our 1st, and as far as names....if it's a girl I think I want to name her Alana Nicole and for a boy...lildreamy ur not going to like this...but after my dh, Nicholas. I think it's cute this is pregnancy number 3 for us, so hope we finally get to name our baby!

 

[SLCMommy]

You ladies all have wonderful names I don't think it's silly to name a child after yourself I mean, people name their children after their grandparents, ya know? Although Joseph is rather plain IMO, BUT if you had a boy and had to name him that, you could always call him "Joey" which is think is very masculine yet still very, very sweet As far as Alana goes, My sister is Alana Rae , (Uh-lane-ah) and I've always thought Alana with either way to saying it was beautiful. However, people would call her (Uh-lonn-ah) so if the occasional mix up doesn't bother you, I would say go for it because it's a darling name Wow! I can't believe we actually are here talking about baby names...and having it count! I love the name Norah Charlotte & that's what I had picked out but DH LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Charlotte & I like Charlotte enough to let him name her the first name Charlotte

 

[Babykiser]

Lol I know it's kinda weird for me to be discussing baby names!! I don't wanna get ahead of myself, but I KNOW this pregnancy is going to be successful!!! I have such a positive attitiude and I'm so ready to be a mom!! Also being on these kind of positive threads helps alot too!! Thanks SLC for making it!!

Greenpear- how are u Hun??? Has the bleeding stopped?? xxxx

 

[greenpear]

Babykisser - yes hun, I didn't have anything yesterday so I'm praying and hoping nothing will happen. Yesterday while I was in a car I got hit with a random wave of nausea, and this morning my stomach feels a bit off. 4 weeks is too early no? But hopefully it will be a good sign

SLCMommy - I know what you mean about naming babies after grandparents - if we have a boy we'll name him after my grandpa (and biliion of my uncles, cousins, second cousins, third cousins, great uncles you get the picture - most of males in my huge extended families are Misha) but hubby really liked girl to be Anya, although I like Emily better. But Anya is a nice name too so it's ok. At first he wanted to name her Anuk and I said "No way! " so we compromised

 

[Babykiser]

Greenpear- that's great!!! I hope things continue to go well! And nausea is a great sign that things are going well! xxxx

 

[greenpear]

Thanks Babykisser - you are right, it's so important to have a positive attitude. It's just that recently (over last 2 months) there's been several deaths in my family and my MC, which is why I was so down yesterday. But today I feel better. Usually I'm a pretty positive person though, so I'll try to remember that and feel positive now.

Thank you for all of your support,

Thank you everyone else for all of the support!

Hello! Room for 1 more?
I've just got my on metformin after failing with clomid and 2 laps this year. 2 years in the making so hoping it sticks!

 

[Babykiser]

Congrats beanhunter!!! Fx'd for a sticky baby!

 

[LilDreamy]

Aw greenpear, I'm sorry for your rough time. That sounds really tough.


But the bright side you are going to have a happy and healthy 9 months and will have a precious baby in your arms soon! =]

&& about the naming my baby after her dad and not liking it... it's just... his dads name is Joseph, His name is Joseph, My Brothers name is Joseph, my Cousins name is Joseph... there comes a time when enough is enough. LOL.

And yea... I think I will deffinately Go with Joey if I must. Lol. None of them go by that name. So yay! lol.

Gosh... My back is REALLY killing me... or maybe my kidney.. it only hurts on the right side.. wtheck? And I've been cramping really bad, and got Nauseous really bad.

I think it's all due to the 15 minutes of Crying and stressing I was doing about an hour ago. :/ Hope all is ok.
