The official cerazette missing period support thread!! *NAME CHANGE*

[nexis]

The wind has already taken out two of our fences in the back garden

Today and yesterday I've been getting some period type cramps so I'm hoping that means that the tablets are working. Got today and tomorrow then got to wait and see

 

[MrsHopeful]

Hi everyone.....isn't this weather awful!! I think I am in the 2WW but I'm trying not to symptom spot this month. If I get AF this month I will make a doctors appointment about my irregular cycles.

Positive Mental Attitude for this, Cycle 12 of TTC

I hope you're all having a great weekend.

 

[MrsHopeful]

Fingers crossed Nexis-those long cycles must be frustrating!!

 

[annanouska]

hope everyone is ok-hubby has been at work all day and think he may not come back until tomorrow-due to all the high winds lots of power lines have come down so hes off sorting them out!

Agree weather is rubbish I can't remember the last time I took Aaron out for a decent walk in the pram - that was all I did in the first few weeks!

Abbie - one of my friends babies is the same age as Jake and she seems to be going through a huge growth spurt and she is back to feeding 2 times in the night and much more frequently in the day. Apparently this is normal and this is why years ago they started to wean at 4 months thinking that the babies needed more than just milk when actually they were just going through a growth spurt - I might be totally wrong but maybe Jake is doing the same?

Can't remember if I told you but since you mentioned about white noise months ago on here I have tried that with Aaron and he loves it... in fact it is the way I get him to snooze in the day and I use it when I put him down at night. He is so grumpy if he doesn't get 2 or 3 naps a day but it is hard to nod him off without the white noise. I am really lucky with him sleeping though and if he does wake in the night which is rare I just put the noise on and he nods straight back off. Everyone has different advice but I was told by the breastfeeding clinic I go to that if they wake in the night don't automatically feed them if you know they normally sleep through as it can cause them to wake with habit rather than because they are hungry - but every baby is different and only you know whats best. Maybe if he is sleeping near you he can smell you and inbetween sleep cycles he is waking up and wanting feeding / comforting. What is a co sleeper? I sometimes put Aaron in with us after his first morning feed if it is before 7am and I love him in our bed but I can't sleep as just watch his little face instead! Ha!

Hay - Aaron is doing really well on weight gain but he was 9ib born so had a head start ha! He is between the 75th and 91st line on the growth chart and is following a curve perfectly! I have never given him a dummy as he settles pretty well I did consider it a few weeks ago though as I was having real trouble soothing him I think he is starting to teeth already as he is always sucking his fist and has been very dribbly with red cheeks and sometimes gets really upset when I have tried everything else.

Hope everyone else is ok - not long to go for a few ladies xxx

Nexis - I totally sympathise with you. When I was TTC my second son I had about 5 periods within 2 years! It was so frustrating and the last 6 months or so I was at the doctors every week for blood tests so monitor my levels to make sure I was ovulating. I was but it was next to impossible to tell when it would be! Nightmare. I was never given any meds to bring on AF though so I hope it works for you! Crampy pains have to be a good sign!

Mrs Hopeful - Fingers crossed! TWW is awful and, if youre anything like me - impossible to not symptom spot!

Kix11 - Ive got a white noise app on my phone and Caelan still likes it (he is 28 months) its so odd how it soothes them!

News with me is I stopped bleeding for a day (after 14 days) only to start spotting again tonight!?!? Hope I get some answers at the docs on Thursday... Ive been getting lots of twinges like Ovary pain but cant work out why

Weather awful here too... Crazy. Never know what youre going to get. Its not that long ago that my Mum had 6 inches of snow and we were outside in short sleeves and we only live 30 miles from each other! Fed up of this rain though... cant do anything!

Hope youre all well

Hey everyone :wave:
I dont think ill manage to answer every post as Im taking that much medication my head is a bit all over the place! Kix the having them sleep with you prob does make them more likely to feed for comfort, Ollie helps himself during the night so we sleep and feed and are not disturbed. He has his first tooth and now sometimes screams hysterically at bout 1am with pain of 2nd tooth coming through!
We finally had the 3rd set of jabs and I had put him on the scales at the clinic before the jabs and told her what it had said, she plotted it and said he had gone down a centile and they will keep a check on it. I explained he had had laryngitis and hadnt taken solids during that time and had still gained with just bf. Told her we were due to see neonatal consultant anyway so she said she will see us after that. We are at the hospital tomorrow pm so will see. Think I have read the scales wrong coz he weighed an awful lot more on our scales yesterday! Im certainly not concerned as hes chunky and happy
Hope we see some bfps on here soon as our bumps are soon to be born, cant wait for the announcement/birth stories
Only 4wks to go Anna not long now
Weather here is pants too, spoke to relatives in Germany and its 27degrees there, I was not a happy bunny!
Guess I should go to bed or Ill be a nightmare on the school run!!

Hi ladies!

All ic ov test over the weekend were what I would say negative only really faint lines after 10mins then after 30 they were darker on the side nearer to the dip line but pale towards the test line. Should I take that as no ovulation?

Sinn x

 

[Samie18]

Think mine changed within about 5 mins so dunno after 30....

 

[betty14]

anna work countdown is exciting

honey hope your ok, when do you go to see mickey?

sinn i think they have a 10 min read limit on them? but some might differ what do the instructions say?

x x x

 

[Sinn]

Betty they say discard after 30 mins. Guess its better luck next time!

 

[Diddums]

Yes they say discard after 30mins and usually result will be visible within 10mins. Sorry hopefully that was the beginning of our surge and you can catch it today/tomorrow.

Cd90 here and no sign of AF drs appointment tomorrow to get blood test results do will update you all with that tomorrow evening. Wish me luck

Xx

 

[betty14]

Ah ok in that case it's fine to read up to then!

What cd are you? Are you testing twice a day?

X x x

 

[Abbi808]

Morning ladies...hope everyone had a good weekend!

Nexis - your nails are gorgeous! I grow mine long but they never look like that! I need to learn..

Diddums - Good luck for tomorrow! Hopefully it is something simple.

Kix - Yes, the white noise is great for Jakey, glad Aaron loves it too. It works like magic, people can't believe it sometimes how it changes him in a second, so funny! Well, as for the night feeds I think you may be right. Jake has picked up a habit of being nursed back to sleep even when he isn't hungry so the past few nights I have been stricter. He woke just twice last night (genuinely hungry) as opposed to the 5 times the night before so hopefully it wasn't just a fluke. I think you might be right about the growth spurt too - he seems to have grown loads in the past couple of weeks. A co-sleeper is a crib with a drop down side on the side that goes against my bed. Basically there is no bars between Jake and me - my bed attaches to his so I can lie with him in his crib if he needs. Last night I put the bar back up though as he keeps rolling onto my bed so maybe that helped too! Luckily the bars are wide so I can hold his hand through them when he gets upset! Thanks for the advice, I think I will see how I get on the next few nights now. Going to make sure he naps in his crib today too instead of on me. Hopefully he will learn to sleep alone. Great about Aaron's growth too! He is such a cutie!

Honey - I wouldn't worry either, you know best! Sure appointment will be fine! I was letting Jake do that in the night but it was getting ridiculous as he was waking me about 8 times! He is a little younger than Ollie though so maybe he isn't quite as good at finding it on his own! haha!

Anna - 4 weeks! Wow! That has come round so fast. How exciting!

Sinn- Sorry about negative opk. Keep trying...!!

[Sinn]

[pink23]

As much as love the movements they are pretty intense. Cant wait to have baby in arms no matter how big or small baby will be. Scared i will msybe have another 36 weeker but its all for the best safety of baby x x

 

[betty14]

Sinn is your cycle always 23 days? Sorry you have prob said all this but I have a brain like a sieve

Pink glad your ok dont worry about baby coming at 36 wks he/she will be perfect and you can relax knowing that bubba is safe and in your arms

I've picked up yet another cold (have caught every one I've come into contact with so far) so feeling a bit grotty and keep going super hot baby has been keeping me smiling by kicking things that I put on my tummy! Love how she reacts to things now!!!

X x x

 

[Samie18]

I can't believe how quick these babies have come round!
Pink glad all went well. 36 weeks is sooo close too.

7 weeks for you Betty!!! Rubbish you got another cold =o( hopefully your immunity will be well used and passed over to baby so no colds will get her, well for a little while anyway!

9 weeks for Beth!

I'm so excited to see these little ones.

Who do we have then.....
Amelia, Moomoo only 5-6 weeks for next scan.....you gonna find out??? Was the 3rd one Pops but she never returned?

Honey hope your feeling better soon.

Hope the test result news is good for the girlies at the docs this week.

Hope everyone else is well.

Well little Miss Sophia has turned into a gremlin again with the daytime sleep i wish the white noise worked =o(
So after the successful pu/pd method only lasted about 7 weeks i have finally given in to the controlled crying method.
She was really bad the other day that i just had a mini breakdown with her i was just crying and saying some horrible things i feel terrible now =o(
Anyway i pulled myself in and controlled crying is the way now because things have got to get easier shes 6 months next week!
So i've started today and it wasn't as bad as i thought i just make sure i have my ipad to look at wedding things whilst i'm sat on the bed listening to her cry. This helps me not to get stressed. She crys bad for a few mins then just winges and has fallen asleep after about 40 mins all 3 times today so i'm hoping it gets easier!
I just don't get her because she sleeps so well at night still average 9-5 then quick bottle then sleep till 9 so i don't get the daytime sleep fights!

Anyhow sorry to ramble to you all hehe

xxx

 

[betty14]

Samie that's what I keep saying! Hopefully she will have a blinding immunity to things fir a good while! I usually don't catch many colds at all.... 1 or 2 a year max!!

Can't believe how fast the pregnancies have gone either! I am having growth scan next week, I was 18 wks when it was booked

Bless Sofia, she sounds very spirited bless her! My niece gave up naps in the day before she was one! She is 3 now so not such n issue but she was a horror for a while!!

When is the wedding? I loved planning ours

X x x

 

[Samie18]

I'm hoping for May 25th.
The brochure isn't on sale until June 7th so i can't book a date yet so i'm looking at the flowers and dresses etcetc.
As it's gonna hopefully be Italy i've decided to buy silk flower bouquet so i can take them with us and not be charged a fortune. So many extras cost loads!
One company i was looking at wanted £189 for the hairdresser on the day..... all i want is it to be wavy and it's short so not £189 worth lol.

I've just watched a little bit of heaven why oh why blubbering away here now =o( I've got my friends funeral next week so i really shouldn't have watched it it's soooo sad =o(
