Pop Tart for second trimester and have you thought of how you are going to make your big announcement - enjoy

Elaine - I drank grapefruit juice this time and also taking aspirin - and guess what looks like I have O at last only taken me 5 cycles

AFM - I am now in the TWW 3DPO but not holding out much hope as we didnt have lots of BD this month in fact 4 days before O time I think ah well at least it looks like my body is getting back to normal

Enjoy your day ladies

Hi ladies, sorry I've not been around too much in the last few days. Sickness has kicked in and although it's not too bad at all, looking at my phone or computer screen makes it a lot worse, so I've been limiting my screen time. Another scan for me on Thursday so they can assess for viability.

Wishing those of you in TWW a speedy couple of weeks!

 

[thethomsons]

Just did another opk and still mega positive so don't reckon I will be 1dpo till maybe Tuesday! Will do another opk tomorrow when I come home for my lunch and see where I'm at!

Hope everyone having good weekend!

Cheryl - how's things not heard from you in while x

oh nooooo Garfie. That is SO disappointing. I'm so sorry hun. Please go see your doctor as they can fix your cycle. Big hugs...

Elaine - keep at the BDing. Not long to go.

PopTart - hope you had a good weekend away and that everyone was thrilled with your news.

Khloeee hope the scan brings good news. Sickness is a good sign so fingers crossed for you.

Lou - sorry you're back at work. You must also be in second try by now? Hope the sickness starts to ease off soon.

FMS nothing much. I keep freaking out thinking that my breast tenderness has gone. I really don't have many other signs or symptoms so I am worried that it could be another blighted ovum but have my first scan on Friday and am trying my best not to worry until then. After all, there really isn't anything I can do anyway and worrying isn't going to help. But fingers crossed that Friday is a good day. DH is in London this week so I will be going alone.

 

[Lou15]

So sorry to hear your bad news Garfie. I agree with manny, definitely get to the Dr, your cycles seem to be a bit strange and I'm sure there are things they could do that would help.

Yay Elaine nearly in TWW! So excited for you xx

Khloee and manny, hope your scans go well this week, will be thinking of you both. Sorry you have to go alone manny. Really hope that the lack of symptoms doesn't mean anything is wrong. It's early days yet and apparently at least 20% of women don't even get any nausea ever, and every pregnancy is different, so fingers crossed for you.

PopTart, hope you had a lovely weekend away and had great fun telling everyone your news.

I'm not sure if I'm in 2nd tri yet...think when it starts varies country to country and poss in UK starts at 13 weeks? Im 12w2d at the moment I think....but will find out for sure tomorrow at my official dating scan! Hooray! DH is coming too, it will be the first one he has been too as he's just too busy on the farm to come to every weekly appointment. We are so excited but also a little nervous just in case anything is wrong although only just saw baby dancing around a week ago so here's hoping all ok. Being back at work is miserable; unfortunately I don't feel quite unwell enough to be off sick completely, but absolutely am not well enough to work gruelling 12hr + days, and nobody is going to cut me any slack at all. I am on call next weekend, and the very thought nearly brings me to tears as I usually spend all weekend just recovering from the previous week. Think I'm going to ask to try another anti-emetic when I'm in tomorrow as still feeling so sick all the time xx

 

[thethomsons]

Garfie - Im SOO sorry hun, you def need to get to the docs and get checked out. Fingers crossed they have some answers. Could the bleeding be IB? Keeping fingers crossed x

AFM - Did another OPK this morning and still strong Positive so OV must be any minute! DH and I have BD every night last three nights and will do again tonight so hoping catch it!!

Lou sorry you are feeling so rubbish, nothing worse but will soo be worth it. Can't wait to see your scan pics!!

Manny moo Im sure everything fine, try not to worry. Looking forward to seeing your scan pic too!

Hope everyone ok xx

 

[Laubull]

Poptart - happy 2nd trimester, yeaaaaa for you

Elaine - Glad you've got your smiley face, enjoy yourself ;-)

Garfie - I am sorry about the bleeding, I am hoping it's implantation bleeding and not AF. Is it heavy? Also I wonder if FF got your O date wrong, maybe you ovulated 3 days earlier and the temp dip on 26th was a blip? An 8 day LP is better then 5 if it is AF that's come. Hugs to you.

Khloee - sorry about the sickness, I hope Thursday's scan goes ok.

Manny - don't panic about symptoms, some people don't have many, just look forward to Friday's scan, I hope everyone is ok

AFM - I too have my scan on Friday and can't wait, the worry is driving me mad, every twinge I keep worrying about, thinking it's bad news. I was actually sick for the first time this morning though so I hope it's a sign everything is ticking along nicely, time will tell.

Fingers crossed for everyone

[thethomsons]

Still getting smiley face on opk! So will Dtd tonight and tomorrow! Won't manage Wednesday night as got parents nights and DH working, will that matter?? 24 hours is smiley face, can't imagine would last much longer?
Xx

 

[Lou15]

I'm sure tonight and tomorrow will be PLENTY!!

What you want is little swimmers ready and waiting for that egg, and that's what there's going to be! Remember they can survive inside you for up to 5 days! Think you've definitely given it your best shot this month hun xx

 

[Lou15]

And Laubull, wishing you all the best for your scan, think being sick this morning definitely good news for baby if not for you! Hope it doesn't get too bad for you. So many scans this week, its going to be an exciting week on our 3rd time lucky thread!

 

[thethomsons]

I know looking forward to lots of pics to keep me hopeful. Well it's 7pm and I'm still getting strong positives, this positive surge is lasting fair bit of time! Never had that last month so hoping this is a good sign! Not going to count 1dpo till surge gone so thinking tomorrow or might even be Wednesday, not sure!

Do u ov once surge gone ie once smiley disappears or is it whilst still there? Xx

 

[mannymoo]

Elaine - last cycle I also had 2 days of positives and well... I managed to get pregnant so hopefully its a good sign! They say that you should only test until you get your first positive and then stop testing - presuming that you would ovulate the next day and count the third day as 1 DPO. Very confusing!!! FF actually ended up marking my Ov day on the first day I got a positive so I guess its not a hard and fast rule.
Lou - hope the scan is going really well today. Please send us a pic when your done!
Garfie - hope you're doing ok? Is the witch being alright with you? big hugs to you xx
PopTart - how was the weekend???
Khloeee and Laubull - yay - scans for all of us this week!
Babee bugs and Cheryl - what has happened to you? Hope you're both well?
I'm sure I've left someone/s out. Sorry - hope your also well.
xx

 

[thethomsons]

Hey girls, so my opk is now officially negative after two days of being positive, do u think I count today as 1dpo or will I count tomorrow? Do u ovulate once positive gone? Certainly felt lots of sensation on ovary area yesterday and nothing today?

What do you think??

Xxx

 

[Laubull]

Elaine I'm not an OPK expert but going on your symptoms I'd say today is 1DPO, you're then officially in the TWW! Good luck girlie, I hope you caught that egg

Hope everyone else is well. I am feeling grotty all of the time now but it's worth it, I just hope this is my rainbow

x

 

[thethomsons]

Lou how did the scan go? X

 

[Lou15]

Elaine I think today is 1DPO for you. As manny says, they do say just test til +ve then no more tests! Of course we all keep tetsing cos we just can't stop poas-ing(!) but the assumption is that you do ovulate the day after first positive. Yay for being in TWW for you!

Thanks for asking ladies, my scan was FANTASTIC!

Baby measured 12w6d so a little ahead of what I thought, due date is 10th of April now! All was well and, my goodness, baby was very active! Wriggling, kicking, waving, doing shoulder stands, it was so lovely to see! We have some lovely pics including one with the cutest little footprint in it, but I will need to think about how I'm going to get them on here as I'm not the best with technology, so bear with me!

Hang on in there everyone, you WILL get to this point one day, and it will be so worth all the hassle and worry of trying again. Of course, if I could, I would have my first baby here in my arms now, but I do think that today was all the sweeter for all that we have been through. Lots of luck and love to all xx
