Stopped BCP & TTC! Whos with me?!

[Elle.T.]

AJ- Huge congrats for a healthy delivery and baby boy!

Gagrl- I see your ticker, did you test again?!? we want line porn. Lol

Flueky- glad your doing ok! It sounds like you covered all your bases. Hope everything works out.

afm- I am 6dpo some cramping on my left size and lower back. nothing to out of the norm, my RE appointment is tomorrow so I so I am both excited and nervous. Then first thing Friday Morning we are off to a wedding in VA. excited for a bit of fun.

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Not much line pen but will this suffice..

 

[Elle.T.]

Gagrl-Awww im so happy for you. A huge huge congrats! 🤗🤗 Did you tell DH? when are you planning on going to the Dr?

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Thank you so much!! I'm still in shock.

So I told DH last night like this... And my first doctors appointment is September 13 ( I'll be exactly 10 weeks at that time).

 

[Angel5000]

Ajangel - Congrats!! That's so great!! I can't wait to see your LO


Flueky - Yeah, I can't believe I'm 17 weeks either! I am definitely finding out gender. DH wants to wait until birth but I am too much of a planner and want ot know asap. I got the referral today so I'm going to be able to schedule the anatomy scan for sometime in the next 2-3 weeks. Hopefully things will work out for you at just the right time. It would suck to have MS at disney, but at the same time that's what mints and ginger candy is for. That's how I got through my graduation ceremony. Good to hear from you but totally understand needing to step away.

Gagrl - Love that way of telling DH! So cute! Is he excited!?


AFM - My OB appointment today was good. Baby HB was in the 140s. When she was pushing a little on my stomach while checking for HB she said she could actually feel baby so I should start to feel it soon. I find it so odd that she could feel but I didn't feel anything and baby is inside me.... too confusing. But hopefully soon! I have the referral to make my Anatomy scan now, I called but they can't make the appointment until the referral comes in and they haven't received it yet so I'll call again tomorrow. Sometime in the next 2-3 weeks is what they're thinking. I want it sooner rather than later, I'm so antsy to find out, but it'll be whatever they can work me in for I suppose.

 

[Flueky88]

Elle.T good luck tomorrow. I hope you get bfp and won't need assistance from RE.

Gagrlinpitt I love how you announced to DH also I love seeing positive digi. Makes it feel so much more real in my opinion

Angel, I'm sorry I feel like I asked before but forgot. Well you must let us know when it'll be so we can count down the days to find out

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

DH he is excited!

Fluek- yours is coming girl!

 

[ABmommy]

Ajangel yay!!!! Congrats to you!! I hope you and baby are doing well 🙏🏻

Thanks Flueky I'm doing well. Take all the time you need, we'll all be here when you pop back in!

Mozz sorry about the limbo. I couldn't imagine going such a long time without any answers.

AFM I'm 23w1d and feeling great. Baby girl is moving around like crazy. Slowly getting the soon-to-be nursery cleaned out of all my random crap lol then we can paint and pull up the carpeting and redo the hardwood floor. Then finally get crib and everything set up! Can't believe 17ish weeks she'll be here!

Hope everyone else is well!

 

[ABmommy]

Gagrl huge congrats! I knew it once I saw the 2nd line!! Also, what an awesome way to tell hubby!

Thank you

 

[Angel5000]

I just scheduled my Anatomy scan!! I go on the 18th, at 3:15. When she told me I have to drink at least 8 oz water 30 minutes before and then hold my bladder I was totally thrilled. (sarcasm much). lol

Flueky - no problem, I frequently ask stuff I already asked, especially here.

 

[Elle.T.]

just got back from my RE appointment. It wasn't nearly as scary as I thought, we talked through treatment options and did lots of blood work and a ultrasound. She does not believe I have PCOS based upon what she saw in the US. Everything overall looked pretty normal she confirmed I did ovulate this cycle from both sides based upon the follicles. I have to go back in for day 3 testing and an HGH if I don't get pregnant this cycle as well as DH getting a semen analysis. basically just confirming everything is normal. I am relieved so far everything seems normal.

 

[Angel5000]

Elle that's great!! So good to hear that things are looking good!! And what a relief to know that you did Ovulate this cycle. That's crazy it was from both sides! Wow! FX this is your cycle, but if not I'm really glad they are starting your testing to confirm everything is good. I love when we get good news!

 

[Elle.T.]

Angel definitely! I still have to wait for the blood work to come back for my other testing but the US didn't show anything to concerning. I know I AM ovulating so that great to know. I would be happy if I did get my BFP this cycle but if not I feel confident that it will be soon. 🤗🤗

Angel I am so excited about your scan, I know you must be too.

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Well ladies.. I guess you can add me to the anxiety list.. Ended up in the ER today with shortness of breath.. Came on yesterday after a little bit of pink spotting and cramping. My doc thinks I implanted yesterday because I've had nothing since. I guess subconsciously my anxiety kicked in.

 

[ABmommy]

Angel, 8oz is nothing, I had to drink 32oz an hour before mine and hold it! Worst thing ever! Lol. But that's so exciting! It'll be here before you know it

Elle- awesome news; positive thoughts! Glad everything is looking normal so far.

Gagrl how are you now? I had pink spotting a few days before my bfp(I didn't test early) so I'm sure it's just implantation. Just try to relax and think positive. Also stay hydrated!

 

[Angel5000]

Gagrl - I'm so sorry! I spent my first 8-10 weeks in constant anxiety, and I had the benefit of getting a weekly U/S with my RE starting at week 5 because of the high risk factor. I don't know how I would have done it without that. And the pink spotting would have probably sent me to the ER with a panic attack also. Do be prepared for a lot of cramping. I had a lot of very strong cramps (stronger than some of my AF cramps) during the first several weeks and it terrified me but doctor said as long as there wasn't heavy blood flow then it was very normal. It's vry possible that spotting was the bean snuggling in deeper. Try to take it easy and relax, as much as possible. I know that isn't very probable, but that's the best advice I can give.

AbMommy- 32 oz?! I don't know if I could manage that for that long! I'm already in teh bathroom every hour. Going back to teaching is going to suck. I can only use the bathroom in between classes (each an hour)

 

[Elle.T.]

Gagrl- sorry about your hospital visit. definately try to take it easy and drink lots of fluids. the anxiety doesn't help at all, a little spotting is Fine try not to freak out. Lol (I know easier said than done.

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Hey ladies.. I just needed an outlet. More spotting today that was pink And light brown with red spots... Waiting for the on call doctor to call me back...

 

[Ajangel25]

Gag- I forget what it's called but there's something in pregnancy you can have where you have spotting and its normal! Fingers crossed big time!!

Angel and ABmommy- I'm so glad everything is going well for you both and baby and mama are healthy! So excited to see if you have a boy or girl angel. Any suspicions!?

Flukey- when is your trip? Will you get to go for a while? That's exciting!!

Elle- I'm so glad the US looked normal! That's a big relief as I know PCOS can be kinda hard to treat.

Afm, we are home and both doing well!! I'm pretty sore as I had 2 second degree tears and lots of swelling.. Baby came out fast and furious and sideways instead of head down! So basically I woke up at midnight Monday with some bloody show. I went back to bed and started having some Braxton hicks that I noticed were a little painful and in my low back. I started timing and they were 5 min apart. I woke up my husband at 5:30 and was like I think I'm having contractions but not sure?? So I called my doc and he said to go to the hospital. When I got there my contractions were 3 minutes apart and I was 3cm dilated. 2 hours later they checked and I was still 3cm but contracting every 3 minutes and it was getting painful. I decided to walk and see if I could progress because they threatened to send me home. It started getting super painful after an hour of walking and then I was at a 5! So I planned to go medication free but then the contractions started "coupling" basically back to back contractions with no rest in between, and it was all in my lower back. They even made me throw up a few times! They suspected baby was sunny side up. My water hadn't broken at that point snd they said it would get even more intense when it did, so I decided to get the epidural. Well wouldn't you know it didn't work AT ALL and long story short they had to place a 2nd epidural. So then a couple hrs later the doc came to check me and when they pulled back the sheet they were like omg her water bag is hanging out! So she ran to get supplies and the nurses prepped the bed and the doc popped my water and after 5 minutes of pushing he was here!! Ended up being 19 hours of labor and I've already forgotten the pain, it's all totally worth it!
