Mid-August Testers

[NotNic]

Happy birthday Bex! Hope you were lucky tonight! Xx

Hands - I've had a dating scan already at 6+5 but my proper serious one is at 12+2 on the 29th November. Also because my LMP put me so far ahead I've already had my booking appt with the mw too. Now I need to sit tight and wait. Do you have dates for yours? I think it would be good for you if you got one quite soon.

Snow - hope hubby let you have the best bits of pizza tonight. xx

CH - hope you are still positive.

Mrs Bea - I've always fancied staying in one of those water bungalows. I might hold you too that!

 

[CHDickey]

Snow hope this process hurries along!! Your dog is so cute!!! We have 3 dogs that we call our kids!!

Well I think I started my spotting today so it seems AF will arrive most definitely on monday if not Sunday. Here's to testing to get some answers!

 

[InHisHands]

you say spotting... i say possible IB... you aren't out till she gets you CH.

Nic..i go in on the 15th for family history and after that i will be able to make an appointment for baby... i'm guessing my first scan wont be till around the 12 week area. Its just sit and wait for me.

 

[CHDickey]

Hands thanks for the PMA! But pretty I'm out...starting to think something is wrong. Oh well!

 

[NotNic]

Not necessarily. For a start you're not actually out yet (pma!) and if there is, then I'm sure it's probably such a minor thing. It took me 6 mths and I think Mrs Bea and Hands were both a bit longer. My Dr told me that sometimes all it takes is some time and patience.

 

[MrsBea23]

CH - It took me 9 months hun sometimes it just takes a bit longer even with perfect timing, hopefully this will be implantation though good luck.

Snow - I hope it has not been to painful and it is all over now. Your puppy is georgeous I really want a dog but I think I need a bigger garden 1st, although it might look after my cats that get battered by the neighbourhood bully cat!

Nic - I went to Mauritus on my honeymoon and loved it we are definitley going to go back there at some point. How are you getting on with the house hunting?

Bex - I hope the head isn't too sore today he he.

Hands - Stay positive hun your PMA is great.

 

[CHDickey]

I'm out she got me!

 

[MrsBea23]

Oh sorry hun huge . I hope you are not to down.

Time for a glass of wine and deep tissue massage for you hun.

 

[InHisHands]

Sorry to hear that CH... it took hubby and i 10 months.. and we used the opks, and etc. Hang in there sis. Your time is coming. And on the bright side... you can start testing!

Snow- you are in my thoughts and i hope today is better for you, even if it is just a smudge.

Mrs. Bea -- What an alvacado you got there!!!! Can you feel the baby move yet.. or is that in the next few weeks?

Nic - you are nearly 2 weeks ahead of me... im jealous. What symptoms are you having?

Bex - you doing okay hun? How close are you to your BD marathon?

 

[Srbjbex]

Hey girls! Thanks for all the birthday wishes! I've had a lovely weekend, had a couple of wins at the dogs, then went to a fireworks display on Saturday, then out for a yummy sunday lunch today with amazing Yorkshire puddings!

CH - really sorry to hear that the witch got you this weekend. I hope that you are doing ok, and you got some cuddles off your husband.

Snow - really cute doggy pics!! Brilliant! How have you been feeling this weekend?

Nic /hands - how is the sickness doing? Are you managing to feel any better?

Bea- any movement yet? We are desperate to hear when you get you feel some wriggles in your belly!!

Witch has when and truly gone so the BD begins going to just stick to the tactic of DTD every 2 or 3 days right the way through until well past ov.

Oh.....and I'm in for the mauritius trip!

 

[InHisHands]

Bex- Yay!!!!! I'm rooting for you sis!

CH - looks like you and Bex are gonna be close in your cycles together.

AFM im still having some minor cramps, big boobs (tender but never painful like others talk about), and i get sickness off and on. I threw up once yesterday, but none today. I tend to get a sickly feeling when i get hungry or if i ate too much... putting pressure at a particular spot seems to really help take that feeling away for me... so i use that method a lot. I honestly can say as of so far, even though i do get BLAH .. its not as bad as all those horror stories i have heard about. I'm feeling good about baby and just hoping my feelings are right and everything is going along as plan.

 

[NotNic]

Bex - glad you had a super birthday. Yorkshire puddings - yum yum!

Hands - lovely to see the pma back. Good work honey!

CH - so sorry the horrible witch got you. Do you have a plan for this month?

Snow - How are you doing? Really hope that you're not feeling too bad today. Check in if you can. We miss hearing from you, but I know how hard these few days have been for you. xx

Mrs Bea - good luck for tomorrow. (I think that's when you said your mw appt was). Hope you get to hear baby's heartbeat.

AFM - I think the worst if the ms had gone, which is a little bit worrying, but I feel exhausted. I am up late because I had to have a nap for a couple of hours this evening! I have gotten very bloated again which is uncomfortable. Apart from that I don't feel very pregnant. I also attempted to buy my first maternity bra this weekend which was a total disaster. I haven't put any inches on round my back yet (I'm quite narrow so would be surprised if I did go up much) and I can't find a single one in the shops with a 30 back and a decent cup size. They're all petite 32c cups or 40gs. I can see an expensive online shopping trip coming up on payday!

Xxxxx

 

[InHisHands]

Yay!!! Nic is an Olive!!!

 

[CHDickey]

Hey ladies!! Glad see to everyone is happy!!! Have an awesome day!!!

No plans this month or next except to have testing done! Have to wait again until January so that my short term disability kicks in so, just going to enjoy the holidays with the family and DH. We will begin our quest again after the new year!!

I will still be around though!!

 

[Srbjbex]

Well we managed to get BDing done on sat and Sunday so that was good! Sunday was especially good

Neil is in Luxembourg now so I will have to wait till Wednesday before we can go again

CH -good to hear you positive and looking forward to the testing, and not long now till Christmas! Woo!

Nic- loving your little olive! It made me laugh when I read your bra story

Hands - you stay positive, I'm sure you have beautiful sticky bean in there

Bea- hope you're doing ok!

Snow

 

[InHisHands]

snowflake - how are you doing/feeling? Havent heard from you in the last couple of days. Sure do miss you .. you are in my prayers.

NotNic - im soooooo guilty when it comes to 1st Tri forums.

Bex - thank you for your encouraging words. I hope you get your sticky bean this month.

Bea - how are you doing... mrs 2nd trimester. Are you feeling better and full of energy like they say you get in 2nd tri?

Ch - so glad you are going to stick around!! Wouldn't be the same without you.

AFM - i get my paranoid, sickly, excited, calm moments... but thankfully not all at the same time. I was thinking about adding to my signature, but wasnt sure if you guys would be okay with it. Let me know if you dont care to be listed.. . i can take names out and just leave the Mid August ladies thread name if you dont want to be listed.

It is just that i feel so close to you all.

"Mid August ladies, you help me more than you know! Waiting for srbjbex, snowflakes120, and CHDickey to get their sticky beans. Bump buddies with NotNic, MrsBea23"

 

[TerriLynn]

I'm right there with you! I'm on CD9 right now and looking to ovulate on CD13-CD15. They always say the 2 week wait from ovulation to when you can take a pregnancy test is hard, but I think the 2 week wait from your last period to ovulation is just as nerve racking! By the time I get pregnant, I'm pretty sure I will have pulled out most of my hair!!!

Good luck and baby dust to you!

Oh, and my advice is to just let nature take its course. Don't get too caught up in only doing the deed when you ovulate. I am a firm believer that all pregnancies happen when the time is right and that is not our time to choose

 

[Srbjbex]

Yay hands that's lovely!..... I'm going to put you all in my signature too!

Hi Terri :wave: how long have you been TTC?

 

[MrsBea23]

Hi Everyone,

Hands - Like Bex said it is lovely I am going to put it in mine as well if that is ok.

Nic - I have swapped to maternity/nursing bras so they grow with you. They are very comfy although not as supportive as underwire (I would wear and underwire if wearing a nice dress). I was 32DD pre pregnancy and must have gone up at least one size if not more since becoming pg and they are ok for me. I am at work but have a link at home to a place I got a couple for £10 I will post tonight when I get home.

Bex - Hubby must be home tonight I hope you haven't missed him to much, time to get back to BD. I hate it when DH goes away I am a big old scardy cat at night on my own.

Snow - I am thinking of you I really hope you are ok.

CH - Glad you are going to stick around. I hope all your testng is fine and it is just taking a bit of time. I went out on the weekend and bought a couple of white raindeer and a silver santa and a little white tree to go in my downstairs hall and I have them up already wna dI am burning my Christmas yankee candles already as well wee hee.

 

[CHDickey]

Hey ladies! Appointment has been scheduled for 12:30 Friday. I will keep you posted!
