March/April BFP's who's going for it!! NEW LADIES COME JOIN IN!!

[Pinkcasi]

Thanks for thinking of me girls and all the lovely words, I'm still here bored and awake again, it's now 5.30 am I don't sleep well at the best of times what with the SPD but hospital beds! And the lady in the next bed (it's a 2 man room) keeps having contractions and calls the midwife, she's not having a good time in a lot of pain but not really getting anywhere, her cervix isn't thinning out, anyway an ought about the stranger lol
My contractions seem to come and go I wish they'd come already so we can get this show on the road! But it'll be another 5 hours before my oh will be back unless he gets called in cos I've progressed that far.

Yeah left they made him leave when visiting hours ended at 8pm they say unless your in established labour they have to go, it's a nightmare as in theory they could be called back at any time poor guys and there's enough room for us to both snuggle in my bed but hey ho rules is rules.
Ok going to try to get another hour or so sleep I recon I have a long day ahead. Night

Hey everyone, wanted to reply to everyone, but I just got my computer back (DH installed a new part as a Christmas gift) and it's already super late. (I slept 5 hours last night...how am I still awake???) BUT for now, thanks for the support

And Pink that totally stinks that they sent him home, boo. I think he should have to be there every moment with you as long as you want him around! Still thinking of you and wishing you the best!

Ok good ni....Zzzzzzzz.....

 

[sailorsgirl]

Ooh good luck pink!!

Sorry they have sent your oh home. That sucks.

Xx

I just wana take this opportunity to say omg I'm soooo lucky!
I just went for breakfast consisting of cereal and cold toast and got chatting to some of the other ladies here, one of them told me she's 24 weeks and got rushed to hospital, she has a low lying placenta and has had 2 quite bad bleeds she lives a couple of hours away but had to come to this hospital so it's too far for her partner to visit she's all on her own and has 4 kids at home.
Another one is 31 weeks and has pre eclampsia and has been told she'll be here until she has the baby which could be next week or next month, she also has a young daughter at home.
The other one also has a low lying placenta she's 26 weeks and has already been in for 2 weeks plus and will be in till at least 28 weeks, she too has 4 kids at home.

I felt so guilty complaining about SPD when they're going through all that, I am so lucky and blessed to be in the position I am in, (tho I really want her to come soon lol)

Sorry I've been MIA the past few days but I will catch up later tonight!!!!

Currently 3/4DPO in my second TWW this cycle.... Nips hurt to touch, where normally I don't feel anything. Appointment scheduled tomorrow to see why I ovulated twice this cycle, and if my PCOS is back.

 

[MamaTex]

Hey gals. I am typing this on my phone with one hand as I am feeding Sky. A lot has gone down in the last few days. Still reading and rooting everyone on.

Afm I was able to test and I am not pregnant. I was a little disappointed but to tell you the truth now would not be the most ideal time to be pregnant. I will see if I can talk to my husband again about ttc in the new year.

 

[Tricia173]

Mariah's mom- I am so sorry to hear of your loss! Welcome to the board, this is a great group of ladies!

 

[sailorsgirl]

I am new to this and I just want to start off by saying it has been a joy to hear all of you guys stories.

Just a little background on me: My name is Dee Dee, I'm 28yrs old and engaged to my highschool sweetheart. So last April me and my fiance moved in together (we were long distance) and a month later I found out we were expecting a on May 7th. It happened so damn fast. We were more than excited. I had an ankling I was preg because I would wake up in a puddle of sweat, very sore breast, cramping and brown discharge. Had my OB appt on May 14th to confirm pregnancy. During the appt the OB was concerned abt the spotting and advised us that worst case it is a threatened abortion .. well the spotting stop and the pregnancy was progressing beautifully.

Well at our 20 wk US we found out we were having a beautiful little girl. Mariah Brooklyn. But before we could get too excited we were advised I have a short cervix measuring at .8cm. Had to see a MFM doc right away. Long story short we lost our beautiful angel Sept 8th. Doctor said there was an infection from the bacteria B-strep (I believe that is the name). Now 3months later we TTC **Fingers crossed**...HOPING FOR THAT BFP!

So sorry for you loss fx for your bfp soon.

Xxx

Oh wow. Sorry to read of your loss but you're among supportive women here. Good luck getting your BFP!!

Ok, had a little extra time to attempt to write a better reply.

ttcbabyisom, thank you. hoping this is your month! GL in your tww.

unexpected, sounds like your bases are covered, wishing you the best.

qwk sounds like your window is approaching, good luck!

Mariahsmom, oh your story broke my heart. Welcome though, nice to meet you. Hope you get your rainbow soon.

Pink, it's so nice of you to update even from the hospital! I still think it's lousy to send the men home! I don't know what the protocol is here because I was definitely in active labor when I got there. But my DH even slept in a cot next to me the two nights we stayed.

Don't write off your own struggles, they are still real to you even though it may be a lot different than other ladies' struggles. So that's nothing to feel guilty about. However it is great to count your blessings. This will all be worth it. Looking forward to your updates.

DS good luck.

Hey mamatex, it's such a weird inner conflict isn't it? To be a little sad but in some way a little relieved as well. Maybe later when it wouldn't be as hard on you.

AFM, 10 dpo, feeling slightly less crappy (both emotionally and also feel like I'm starting to get over whatever little bug I have). Gotta wait til at least Saturday to test. We'll see what my temps do I guess. Other than ttc stuff, weather has gotten crappy here (sleet has already glazed my car, snow is yet to come). But of course it's my late day at work and my last few appointments still say they're coming. I sorta wanted them to cancel so I could get out of here.

 

[nevergivingup]

WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW TTC ADDICTS!!! Fingers Crossed for everyone here and afar!!!

P.s: Don't ever give up on what you want, make your dream a reality!

 

[Unexpected212]

Welcome Mariah's mum so sorry for your loss

Good luck to everyone xx

 

[ESwemba84]

I've been checking every hour for an update, Pink! Hope you're doing good!

 

[Kat S]

Hee hee...ES, I did the same thing tonight! But it's time for bed, so I'll hope for an update when I get up.

 

[Mariahs Mom]

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I am excited to embark on this journey with you guys.

Quick question. I could be reading too deep into this, but the first sign I experienced last time I was pregnant was hot flashes and waking up with my body burning hot. Doesn't feel like a fever but my fiancé would say "Wow you are burning up". I am a week or so away from AF and I am experiencing the samething. Last go round I experienced a few symptoms during the 2WW.
1. Hot flashes/Waking up in sweats
2. Woozy with sudden movements in car
3. Very sore breast/Hurt while I walk

Am I over-reacting?

 

[Pinkcasi]

Heya just a quick update so you guys can get some rest lol
It's now nearly 5am here and I'm still bloody waiting! This darn child dies not want out lol
I was checked by the dr earlier and she said I was ready to have my waters broken but that they are so busy on maternity that it would be innthe morning, unless I do 'something' on my own overnight, after my exam I had some bleeding like a lot and a big 'clot' came out in the toilet, I don't knowci fitness my plug but I told a member of staff and no one seems to bothered so I'm just trying to get some sleep before it all kicks off tomorrow.
It sounds like things are happening but I recon it's still going to be a while.

Welcome new peeps sorry I'm being rude.

 

[Kat S]

Poor Pink is still waiting! I hope it's soon, Hon!

 

[Pinkcasi]

Yup Kat still waiting, this child is stubborn, I know I wanted her to be sticky but not anymore lol

Tho my waters did break on their own about 7 am, I've been 'leaking' ever since I'm just waiting to go to the labour ward but I'm not having regular contractions so I don't know what's going on.

 

[sailorsgirl]

Oh glad your waters have gone...hope your contractions become regular soon. Xxx

 

[nevergivingup]

Pinkcasi: Tell that stubborn rainbow baby to Come on out we're all waiting on her!
