light hearted ttc

I get weighed everytime I go for an appt, I think its the standard thing to do at my hospital. I know each hospitals and states(and countries) have different ways of doing things. I mostly just worry cause I was already underweight to begin with before getting pregnant.. so my fear is I'm gonna end up weighing less then what I did pre pregnancy :wacko:


Jo good luck with your next scan :)

Susi, just read your post... yea I don't want my first birth to be at home either!!
 
Good Luck Patrice.

I found out today that my niece is pregnant. I want to be happy for her, but she wasnt even trying. And I have been trying 2 years and just decided to take a break. I'm just being childish and want to stamp my foot and shout "why not me?" I'll get over it. Kinda know now though that even if we continued trying I wouldnt get pregnant this year anyway. Her baby will be here before I get my BFP
 
Hi motherofboys that must be hard. I noticed u were taking a break the other day, may i ask why?

Thanks ashley, i just hope she measures up so i can use the birth centre still. I really have my heart set on it. I dint think we get weighed in the uk , only time i did was at the very beginning, then they make ur growth chart from that..
 
Because I got so obsessed I couldnt think of anything else, I was putting my life on hold for a "what if i'm pregnant" I almost said nno to going to a friends wedding incase I was pregnant as its in manchester and I'm in Kent and I had so much bleeding in my last pregnancy i didnt want to do the travelling and the late night and dancing etc just in case. And with my short LP i didnt want to have to continue taking b6 for however long so figured i would wait and let my body even out more naturally and by the time i started ttc again my son would be more or less weaned and i would have a 'normal' cycle.
At 1st i thought i was ok with it, but since AF finished and it became real we wasn't ttc i have been struggling to sick to it. especially as i'm not on any contraception because i want my body to even out naturally and DH is saying he wont use condoms, would rather just pull out seeing as if he forgot it wouldnt be the end of the world.
 
I understand Motherofboys, you know what's best for you right now. Big hugs.
 
Ashley & Jo - I weighed myself for the first time since I was 5 weeks last night and I've put on 8lb. I measured my waist too, it's usually 25inches but it's gone up to 32inches.
You can really notice the bump now.

Ah i see. :hugs: So you're more sort of ntnp.. it is hard to do especially once you've been full on ttc. We never really full on ttc but I always felt he was ntnp and I was ttc lol.
Good idea tho to wait until your son is weaned tho it might help a lot. Dont beat yourself up if you still like to work out your ov day, I used to work it out but didnt necessarily try to dtd round that time, it was just coincidence if we did! Just dont let it put your life on hold like you say. The month I concieved i wasnt thinking about it at all - had alcohol, coffee, didnt take many vits etc and wasnt stressing about what i could and couldnt do. Maybe the lack of stress helped!

Hayley great to hear from you!! Im not around much on this thread anymore either mainly cos I cant keep up now Im not online all the time! I post and then cant find anyones reply to it lol.
My baby is head down too and still 3/5 engaged- tho Im convinced shes more I just have so much pressure down there! Apparently Iv had braxton hicks but didnt even know it - the mw said i was having tightenings when she was measuring me the other day and I couldnt feel it!! (not sure if thats gud or bad lol)

Eeeek im excited. Im really going to miss you ladies. But im going to tell you all like I tell my DH..."it's never a goodbye, it's always see you later." So I will see you ladies in a few months time but it will NEVER be a goodbye :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

Hayley, Yes I have like 3 bags packed, one for the baby, thats in the car, then 2 for me, well one for labour and then one for after baby is born. And then my DH has one too :haha: we plan on moving into the hospital jk!! I just really like to be prepared! However mine and my dhs bags aren't in the car... just in the apt while we put last minute stuff in. My DH is convinced I won't have the baby before week 40 :wacko: I'm actually kinda hoping on week 39 to have the baby.
