Hi Ladies - hope everyone had a lovely weekend!
Lou - Good luck for today! Can't wait to see a pic of your little one. Today is gender scan is it not? How exciting!!!
Barhandita - CONGRATS! Welcome to preggy-ville! Fingers crossed that this is your little keeper. Those first few weeks are so hard. There is nothing you can do but try your best to keep a positive attitude and trust that everything will be fine! We are all here if you're ever feeling unsure about things.
Sath - sorry to hear about your gran. Hope she is doing better?
Elaine - I can so understand your worry. I had days when I felt amazing and I was so sure everything was over. But then symptoms would come back in full force. I'm now approaching 14 weeks and although I'm 100% during the day, the nights are still touch and I am still have bad evening nausea. Your scan this week will be great! Are you going to get a doppler? I must say, that has been my saving grace over the past few weeks.
Twinkle paws - I took a look at your chat this morning and it looks like AF got you over the weekend. Sorry about that but just think, you could be unwrapping a BFP on Christmas morning! How exciting!!
Cupcake - did you do anther OPK? I'm sure you're officially in the 2WW by now. Have everything crossed for you!
Other ladies - hope you are all well!
FMS - not much news. Been having a bit more cramping lately than normal. Hoping its just round ligament pains. I had bad constipation over the weekend (sorry - TMI) and I think that contributed to the cramps. Little heart is still beating away and I although I try not use the doppler too much, I do love my minute of listening every few days. Can't wait to be starting the second trimester on Thursday! Yipppeeee!!

Hi girls!
Sorry I haven't been on much recently, just not finding the time at the moment.
Lou, good luck for your scan, I can't wait to hear what you're having!
Cheryl, I hope your scan goes well too
Manny, sorry to hear you've got constipation, I had it early on and it gave me loads of cramps/stitch like pain. Whoop to the second trimester on Thursday! Sorry about your friend too, it must be so difficult for all of you involved.
Elaine, I hope you get to Thursday without worrying yourself too much. Sadly after all of the problems we've all had we can all relate to it. Once you get to Thursday and get good news (it WILL be good news) hopefully you can relax a bit
Cupcake1981, I hope you're in the TWW now, fingers crossed for a BFP.
Barhanita, congratulations! I hope this is your sticky bean and third time lucky
Sath, hope you're ok and your Gran is improving.
Twinkle, here's to a Christmas BFP for you this cycle.
Poptart, hope the antenatal class goes well, are you doing NCT classes or the NHS classes? Enjoy tea and cake too! We're staying team yellow, I am actually quite excited about the surprise aspect, plus like you don't want to buy endless pink or blue bits, and there's also the benefit you'll save money not knowing.
I am pretty sure I covered everyone, if not hugs to those I missed.
AFM, I am 15 weeks tomorrow, ahhhh so exciting! I don't have a proper bump yet, more of a fat/bloated belly, but it's definitely changing. Been suffering with lots of headaches at work recently, does anyone else sit at a computer all day, I wonder if that's the cause? Also I've got my consultant referal appointment on Wednesday, I hope that goes ok.

How exciting LauBull - you're going to be an orange tomorrow!
And hooray Elaine for double figures!
I do love the fruit signs... although they are not always logical. I was just at the shops and our lemons are definitely the same size as our limes and our peaches are MUCH bigger than both. Maybe South African fruit is different!

Hi ladies!
Lou, hope everything went well today, will log on later to hear all about him/her
Cheryl and Elaine, hope your scans go well this week too.
Barhanita welcome and congratulations. Here's to another 3rd time lucky BFP!
SATH, hope you are ok and your gran is on the mend. We could be cycle buddies again...
Poptart, hope your antenatal class went well, must be brilliant getting to that stage with all the other mummies to be!!
Cupcake, fingers crossed for you in your 2WW.
Manny, glad you are doing well (except for toilet issues). Glad you are finding your doppler reasuring.
Laubull, hope your appt goes well on Wed. Sorry to hear about headaches, are you drinking plent water and watching your posture.......
AFM, had an annovulatory cycle and then some spotting and a very light period (this is far TMI but it was pretty thick dark red/brown but a definate flow for 2 days now back to spotting, so not a normal period). Keeping my fingers crossed for a Christmas BFP, would be the best present!!

Right ladies, finally we can get excited and oh, how excited we are! All was well today with baby, absolutely everything that they checked - heart, brain, spine, bladder, kidneys etc..baby obliged brilliantly moving just the right amount to see all the different bits.
AND....we are having a little boy! We are both so excited to be team
!!
(and a little surprised...DH is the only boy in a HUGE family of girls, so he never imagined that he would ever have a son....his face was a picture - I will treasure the memory of his expression for ever!). Baby is a good size, a little bigger than average despite all my sickness, and with VERY long legs just like his mummy and daddy!
The only slight concern was that my placenta is lying over my cervix a little, so I will need to be scanned again at 32 weeks to check that it's moved up, which apparently they usually do.
Anyway, thanks for all the good wishes today, I will comment more on other people's posts when I'm next on, but, for now, I'm just going to enjoy thinking about my baby son!

Twinkle I'm sorry you didn't ovulate this cycle, maybe you could try herbal remedies, etc., to help you ovulate this month? I took baby aspirin which is meant to stimulate the ovaries, amongst other things. Fingers crossed for you. Re: my headaches yes I've drunk lots today, maybe I'm just tried, struggling to stay awake now!
Lou, yeaaaaaa a boy is amazing! Congratulations! Have you got any names? Any pics?

As Lou a baby boy how lovely!!!! Congrats, I love baby boys, my nephew 1 and is a sweetheart x
Lau did you take low dose aspirin on the advice of anyone? I'm debating whether I should try it next time....one of those cant hurt, might help things!
Elaine congrats on 10 weeks - is there another scan this week?
Cheryl can't wait to find out what your having tomorrow!
Twinkle I'm sure I read about someone taking soy isoflavins (?) to help with ovulation, supposedly natures clomid. Some people try acupuncture, might be worth a try?
AFM I think I'm in the TWW, well OPKs are light again today to think its happened. Feeling a little scared if we did catch an egg as I've not had AF yet, eek xxx

HUGE Congratulations Lou I really am very happy for you - Im sooo glad the scan went really well and you and your baby son are doing just fine...
Hehehehehe its made me chuckle - just think you have a tiny penis growing inside you ;-)
Enjoy the relief that this scan gives you that things are going really well and not you can start to get really excited about things now......
Oh and dont worry about your placenta - mine has moved up from by my cervix in the last few weeks since my scan already and its not uncommon to have it seated low at this point and there is plenty of time for it to still move up - besides your tummy bump and baby boy need to grow and move up in the next few months and it will probably move up and round then.
Sending lots of hugs to you and I hope your next scan is just as amazing for you both, xxxxx

Cupcake, I started taking baby aspirin because I was worried about blood clotting due to family history, but then the more I read the more benefits I heard, like stimulating the ovaries and producing a better uterine lining. I was completely self medicating but the cycle I started (from CD1) I got my BFP! I stopped once I got my positive but I know some continue with it but as I was self medicating I wanted to be sure. This is the furthest I've got, I don't think it's all down to the aspirin but it may have helped?
Yea for tww, maybe you should temp too, then you'll definitely know if you've ovulated.
