We had a wonderful time in France! The weather was amazing and we had the best time.

Are you resisting there parkin to test early tink? Good luck hon

I'm organising the concert in aid of the baby loss awareness campaign again this year. I'll be doing a "slideshow" at the end, like in 2009, with messages to people's angels and about their experiences. If you would like to contribute then please visit my site: https://babyloss.wordpress.com/blac11/messages/

Glad you had a great time peach =)

As for me.. Ummm NO haha i havent resisted =( i've been testing since 5dop :lmao:
My last test was 9DPO and was a

So far my symptoms are, Bad nausea, Backache, Vivid dreams, Slightly sore nips, some cramping, dizziness. My DH is convinced i am pregnant. Hes been saying it since i was complaining about my back hurting. (which was my first symptom).
Also a old co-worker we went to visit asked if i was pregnant, and DH's sister asked if we were planning on having another baby.

 

[Peach Blossom]

Ooo.. How exciting!! Fingers crossed for you my lovely! I think you're mad doing it all again so soon!!

 

[Chilli]

OOooh Tink - back ache was defo one of my first symptoms!

Well done on organising another concert Peaches - hope it's as great as the last one. Will you be organising another raffle - I really wanted the paper sculpture I bid on but lost!

 

[Peach Blossom]

I will ask my friend who designed them if she'll do some more! How's the bump? Xx

 

[Tink1o5]

Thanks everyone. Im starting to lose hope though. Im due for AF tomorrow.. but i also think i ovulated late, so if Af doesnt come i still think i cant test for another week. =(
Not really having symptoms today so far. =(

 

[RobenR]

Tink, I had virtually no symptoms and tested 3 days after AF was due since DH happened to have a hunch - and he was right. Fingers crossed for you!

Chilli - so glad to see you are doing well and things are going along for you.

 

[Tink1o5]

Thanks Roben.
I tested about 2 hours ago and it was a

Dont know why all my symptoms disappeared all of a sudden

 

[Peach Blossom]

tink, I ovulated late with Lil and got bfn until 21 dpo!! Keeping fingers crossed for you. xx

 

[Tink1o5]

Thanks Peach.

Im due on for AF today, but i tested with FMU and another and i even tried and OPK and my test line is very light on there too. Im feeling very light cramps already.
So i think im out =(

Very down today.

 

[Chilli]

Oh Tink - the heartache of TTC! Big hugs my love!

Thanks for your kind words all - my bump is HUGE! I look about ready to pop! I think most of it is psycho-symatic!!!??? I want it sooooooo much! Naughty baby has been scaring me today by having a chilled out day and not kicking me much, but reassured finally now. I'm over 18 weeks and feel sick as a dog today - all day! Don't know if I overdid my excitement yesterday as I bought a wedding dress for my church blessing - we were married nearly 9 years ago in quiet reg office and always planned to have a party eventually - now it's the next bank holiday! How exciting!!! I bought a lovely dress in Monsoon but had to get a size 18 to fit the bump - yes ladies a size 18!!!!!!! Bit of a shock I tell you!

 

[Tink1o5]

glad to hear all is going well with you chilli.

 

[RobenR]

for you Tink!

 

[Rebaby]

Aww that's so exciting Chilli

Tink. Fwiw i really didn't think we'd caught the egg in January so much so that i actually drank a bottle of beer in my 2WW! Something i would never have done unless i was utterly convinced that i wasn't pregnant and AF was going to show. But then when she didn't show i tested the next day and got a So there could still be hope for this cycle yet

Things are ticking along nicely here, we had a midwife appointment yesterday and she was able to pick up the heartbeat for us on the doppler It was so reassuring.

We have our big anomaly scan in 3 weeks time and i absolutely can't wait to see baby again. I think we have, quite shockingly actually, decided to find out the sex of the baby this time (if we're able to!) I say shockingly because last time we were devoutly team yellow and absolutely adamant about not finding out. I feel differently about it this time though. It's genuinely not because i would prefer one sex or the other, i can hand on heart say that i don't mind at all, it's more to do with the fact i haven't been able to bond with this baby the same way i did with Tobias. The recent MMC really shook my idea of pregnancy and also just having a toddler to chase around after has left me with much less time to spend just talking to and stroking bump and imagining what he/she is going to be like. I really think that knowing something about who is in there, i.e. the gender, will help me to visualise this new little person who is going to be joining our family come autumn. That's how i feel about it anyway.

 

[Tink1o5]

Thanks so much for the hope rebaby. Im still keeping my head up hoping i get my BFP.
But i have a question if any of you ladies know.

If im getting negatives on OPKS.. and i mean negative, like almost no test line negative, does that mean theres no way i can be pregnant?

 

[Peach Blossom]

I've never understood the using opk for pg test...its looking for a different hormone is't it? Keeping fingers crossed for you. Xxx

Chilli, glad bump is getting bigger... Can't believe you're 18 weeks already!!! How exciting!!! Oh and I recently had to buy a size 16 top to fit my now enormous breasts in to!!

 

[RobenR]

I feel like I'm reliving a nightmare. Today, 3 weeks after the IPS testing in which we were told by the u/s tech that the baby was fine, perfect and the NT measurement was 1.3mm, I get an *email* from a doctor on base (not even an ob/gyn btw), who tells me that they have found some abnormalities and had problems seeing what the tech saw during the ultrasound and views weren't clear. As a result we need to repeat the test.

I am losing it. I feel like it's 2008 and I'm going to hear that my precious, desperately longed for baby is going to die. The thing that makes me most furious is that he had 3 WEEKS to tell me this, and now I'm 15 weeks pregnant and if something goes wrong I will have another late term loss and have another dead baby. I asked him what abnormalities, what is wrong and he said he wasn't sure and gave me vagaries, not answers.

My DH is away until next Friday and all that is keeping me from losing my mind is my son right now. I am so worried and scared and don't understand why this is happening. Everything was fine on baby, everything inside where it belonged, everything formed, good heartbeat...what abnormalities? I just want to scream with frustration.

Sorry for the rant. I hope the rest of you are doing well.

 

[Tink1o5]

So Sorry to hear that Roben. I really hope the doctor is the one who lost his mind and that your little baby is doing wonderful. Maybe he "thought" he saw an abnormality but it wasnt really anything. Since he said the U/S pics wernt very clear.


You and your little one are in my prayers
Hope everything will be ok.

 

[Rebaby]

Oh Roben i'm so sorry to hear that i really hope it's just a case of the doctor wanting to make doubly sure all is ok with another USS rather than anything actually being wrong.

So sorry you're having to go through this though, i can only imagine what it must feel like for you.

Will they wait until your OH is home before repeating the scan?

 

[Chilli]

Oh Roben - you poor thing - that's all so confusing and worrying. These professionals don't always understand the awful effect their words can have on us. I really hope it's a storm in a teacup and that all will be fine - I know it's hard but try to stay calm for now. I'm sure your little boy helps you hold it together - I know my daughter always did - much love and support sent your way!
