Thanks Caroline and Rachel my sore boobs are back so in happy lol I'm sure I will worry about something else tomorrow but I'm just trying to relax and take it one day at a time. Easier said than done though. Really looking forward to my scan in just under 3 weeks but really nervous as well!

First day back at the gym today after a few days off. So exhausted already lol!

Thanks everyone...my temp did have a big jump today, but it's been going up and down all cycle. I'm pretty confident I haven't O'd yet. Just my body being screwy

Caroline, I'm glad your appointment went so well! Sounds like everything is progressing just as it should

Rachel, sounds like everything is going well for you, too

Big hugs to those who are due soon. The last weeks can be so miserable and I know you're so excited for your LO's to be here

Bethany I hope your temp and hormones can balance out soon. When my cycles went long, the opks seemed to follow the temps, in terms of unreliability. When temps got extra jagged the opks would go back and forth from positive to negative, without really ovulating. It's probably just a phase and will even out soon!

Caroline, I'm so happy that you measured normal this time! Must have just been a fluke measurement last time, like others were describing. Yaay for baby!

My little guy is so active and I can feel him more and more!

In other news, can it just be spring already?? We keep getting more snow! I'm headed to New Orleans for a conference on Wed and its in the 70s! Glorious!!

Lots of snow here too Seabean, had enough of it now! Can't wait for summer, although its not often we get one in Scotland!!

Nothing much going on with me still! Been taking the prenatal vitamins (which are really tasty!) for 10 days now. No sign of this cycle coming to an end yet though. It does feel like something's happening 'down there' but I'm not sure what. FF gave me crosshairs again this morning (for about the tenth time this cycle!) but they'll be off in a couple of days I'm sure.

NewMrsI know it's so frustrating! I hope things improve for you

How did your booking in appointment go Katya?

 

[Diddums]

It went well thanks Lou.

Blood pressure and heart rate normal, no protein glucose or blood in urine. Also checked heart and had a feel of my tummy and all good. So Dr said baseline readings all good. I've been advised to stop Metformin for now, then if subsequent blood tests show elevated sugar I can go back on it and be closely monitored throughout pregnancy. The dr has me down at 6+6 (actually 5 weeks today) but that's fine as I get to have an earlier scan and the possibility of an extra one if baby slightly too small for accurate measurements. Also means I get to have an in depth scan before i fly to Dubai at the end of April! Chose my hospital for my care and got given a load of leaflets about healthy eating and exercise and an Emma's diary booklet. More in depth appointment than I thought so that's good.

Starting to get a little excited. Up until now I haven't wanted to get excited invade something goes wrong but starting to relax a little. Can't wait for my scan in 2.5 weeks

 

[Diddums]

Hi everyone. Well, I'm not sure about my OPKs today. I did a digital and got a smiley face, but when I took the stick out it had kind of a blue hue across half of the window. Then I took 2 different IC OPKs and they didn't quite look positive to me. So I don't know what to think Just take another one in a few hours, maybe?
