Morning ladies. Took another couple tests this morning which were positive again One question though, how long until they start getting darker? I know I'm only 11dpo, and will probably wait a couple days before testing again lol! Hopefully then then it will be darker

Oh and I took a digital, just couldn't resist and the test just jumped out of the pack and into the wee lol!

Woop! No denying it now, the digi is not wrong! Congrats Katya, your hard work has paid off

 

[Diddums]

Thanks Bex! I was so nervous when the working icon showed up the test. I was preparing myself for a massive let down but then the words pregnant showed!

Hubby is excited but very worried, and doesn't want to get too excited in case anything goes wrong. We had a little chat last night and he said its because we spent so long convincing ourselves it was never going to happen (bloods tests said I wasn't ovulating) that now I am pregnant he can't believe it. Hopefully once he sees the digital he will relax a little!

Eeee so excited though. When did you ladies tell parents?

 

[NewMrs2011]

Aww it must be amazing to see it spelt out like that! How lovely that it's Mothers Day too. Congrats again x

 

[Diddums]

Thanks NewMrs. How are you doing? Xx

 

[NewMrs2011]

I'm ok thanks. Still no change but managed to lose 1st 8lb so far. Seeing my doc tomorrow but that'll prob be a waste of time!

 

[Diddums]

Wow well done NewMrs! Hopefully you will notice a difference soon! Have you had an u/s?

 

[NewMrs2011]

Not since 2009 when it showed up a few cysts but nothing major. When I had bloods done last year my hormone levels were all pretty similar to what they were back then so my doc said there was no point doing for another!

 

[Diddums]

So they haven't checked for womb thickening? When I had my u/a my FS said it wasn't necessary to give me provera as my womb hasn't really thickened in the 8 months without a period! I don't know whether the provera helped or not. I took it and then 2 months later had a natural period. Then had another three natural cycles where I may or may not have ovulated (I think progesterone blood test was done too early), and conceived on my fourth cycle.

Are you taking any multivitamins? I can recommend the pregnacaere conception ones. I really think they helped regulate me alone with diet and exercise xxx

 

[NewMrs2011]

I would really like to get another scan, it's just trying to persuade my doctor. I might try laying it on thick tomorrow and see if she's willing to do any further tests but I'm sure she'll just say they can't do anything until I lose weight.

I actually started on a prenatal vitamin yesterday! I'm no good with swallowing pills so I ordered gummy ones from America and they're actually quite tasty! I really hope something changes soon cos its driving me mad!

 

[Diddums]

I know exactly how you feel! From February to October last year I didn't have a natural period! It was beyond frustrating! What annoys me most is Drs saying you can't conceive just because you're overweight. I know loads if people who are overweight and conceived no problem!

Pregnant on the digi
Im so, so happy for you!

If you go to the first page of my journal you will see my test progression

I told my parents the day after i found out and we told MIL after i had a private fetal reassurance scan at 7wks, i was driving myself nuts thinking something was going to go wrong, the scan really helped... for about a week
Then i had my doppler from 8+6 and was able to listen to heartbeat.

Maybe this is the first cycle you have ovulated I really dont think i was ovulating every cycle either, just so happens the one my progesterone was tested was when i got my bfp! (8th cycle)


We were due a bfp in here

Great weightloss Newmrs

Hope you can get your gp to help you

 

[Rachel789]

Congrats on the weight loss Newmrs!

Yay for + on the digi!

 

[mrsc81]

What was hubby's reaction to the digital Katya??

 

[Diddums]

He's finally come round. He's a little anxious but we are both so happy. He said it eas really nice seeing the Pregnant spelt out. His eye sigjt isnt great so while he could see the teo lines they werent focused for him.

We've nicknamed our poppy seed. We've decided on Gerbera. Bit odd but it's my favourite flower and gerberas flower in November

I think I'm going to have an early pregnancy scan at 7/8 weeks as We fly to Dubai end of April for a long weekend and want to know Gerbera is ok Ladies who had private early scans , where did you get them done and how much? If you don't mind me asking xxx

 

[mrsc81]

Mine was about 15 miles from where i live, it was at a pregnancy centre, there not a chain and cost £50.

Hooray! It's official! Congratulations Katya! You must be so proud of all your hard work! It paid off! As far as the parents, we told my parents, my sister, my in laws and my sister in law right away about the BFP because they knew we were seeing an FS but even if we hadn't been seeing an FS I would have told them right away cause I can't keep a secret. As far as being nervous and worrying I wish I could say that goes away but for me it hasn't, it's just a part of impending parenthood and parenthood in general.

NewMrs - Congrats on the 8 pounds! That's great! I really hope you can convince the doctor to help you. Good Luck tomorrow!
