Third Time Lucky - Fingers Crossed!!!

[thethomsons]

Cupcake yeah got another scan in Thursday so hoping its good as if so going to tell family at weekend. So so want it to be good. Please keep everything crossed for me x

 

[thethomsons]

Oh and um still taking baby aspirin even though results were fine as I'm scared to change anything incase it suddenly goes wrong! Consultant told me won't do any harm as so low dose x

 

[cupcake1981]

I have fxd for you Elaine!!!

 

[twinkle_paws]

Aw Lou, how exciting!! I'm so pleased or you and your wee man!

Laubull, I'm looking into hte aspirin thing, there is so much conflicting info out there! Thanks for suggesting it though, sounds like a few of you on here have expeienced success on it. Will keep you posted!

Cupcake, I would be really keen to try the soy isoflavones but I take thryroxine for an underactive thyroid and have heard that soy can interfere with this so not sure I want to go there. Will see how next cycle goes and maybe consider again....

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.

I am going to look into this as well.. Thanks. A glad you are still going strong, surprised its been ten weeks already!

Lou - I can't believe its a boy! I was SOOO convinced that with all your illness it would have to be a girl. Well, like you said a while back, don't want to know what you'll be like when it is a girl! But yay for your little guy. How exciting!!! I'm about 70% sure ours is a little boy too.

Cheryl - sticking with a girl for you!

RE baby aspirin, my gyne said that they only test for a handful of clotting disorders and actually there are hundreds so he has me on it until week 35. Since starting to take it, I've come across a handful of people I know that took it after 1 or more miscarriages and it seemed to work for them so there maybe more to it than we think!

Hi everyone soz havnt had chance to logon before. How is everyone doing. Lou a little boy congrats how exciting bet you have names flying round your head.

Twinkle sorry you didnt ovulate this month going to be a really good egg this month instead. Im cd 6 so we should b pretty close come on lets get our christmas bfp!

Elaine not long now till your scan bet you cant wait. Have you thought of getting a doppler think i will if i ever get another bfp.

All the best thanks for all your wishes. Grandma seems stronger well she is bossing the nurses round! Handy im only based down the corridor so i can keep popping to see her x

Just wanted to log on this morning and say Good luck today for your scan Cheryl I hope it goes well and you enjoy the nice long scan that this one is...

I hope baby behaves and you get to find out th sex today - looking forward to hearing any news later on honey, thinking of you today, x

Hope all you other lovely ladies are getting on ok and Elaine your still worrying too much - please try to relax alittle and believe in yourslf and your body this time..... as for some of the things you are concerned about just book to see your midwife write them down and fire the questions and worries at her when you see her (thats what I did) and then you will have all those concerns lifted from your shoulders and will feel much better about everything as you will have a direct line to someone who can help....

We will still do our best to keep you positive and your thoughts on the right track if you are feeling down or having a tough time ok, but believe me having regular appointments with your midwife will help it seem more real and you will then start properly believing it yourself....


Love and hugs to you all, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hello ladies so sorry to keep u waiting but we were away pram shopping with my mum

The scan went well she said everything looked perfect but I hav a low lying placenta and nd another scan at 32wks just to check the position of it then she said most woman's resolve itself by 32 wks so I hav nothing to worry about...x

And we are having a boy...xxxxx so wrong again with my gender guesses lol...xx

 

[thethomsons]

Aw Cheryl congratulations another lovely little boy in here!! You must be so excited! Did u choose a pram? Xx

 

[CherylC3]

Lou congrats Hun..xxx

Can u believe how we were both so sick and we're both having boys with low lyin placentas??xx

 

[CherylC3]

Yeah just need to order it Hun..x

Congrats Lou can't believe we were so sick both having boys and both hav low lying placentas. Xx

 

[Laubull]

Congrats Cheryl, two boys in two days! It must mean some of us are having girlies, we can't all be boys.

What pram have you chosen?

x

 

[mannymoo]

Cheryl can't believe you're team blue too! My guessing is shocking!! How exciting for you. Did you want one or the other? Hope you got a pram and a couple of little blue onesies to get you all excited.

Everyone else - whatever I guess for your genders in the future, you will probably not be having that!

Xx

Ps: for pretty ladies, I was lying awake in bed last night and felt very weird little flutters. Do you think it could be baby this early? I've had so much gas and it was definitly not a gassy feeling. Maybe i'm going a little crazy...

 

[mannymoo]

Definitly going a little crazy - meant to say preggy ladies. Not pretty ladies... Although I'm sure you're all very pretty too

 

[cupcake1981]

Cheryl and Lou what a weird co incidence! Congrats Cheryl although I've already congratulated you on another thread!

 

[Lou15]

Congratulations Cheryl! But if we ever have girls we're in for a hard time of it I think! We'd better put on some weight beforehand if we ever want to try for another!

 

[CherylC3]

Found a pram ordering it on sun it's the joolz earth special edition in navy blue.

It may be flutters I was feeling them for wks but just thot it was wind lol. Xx

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I kno Lou lol we will be bed bound if we eve hav girls. Xx

 

[PopTart28]

Congratulations Cheryl another little boy on the way - how exciting....

I think its funny the saying if your really sick your having a girl - Im a firm believer that everyones pregnancy is different and every pregnancy each woman has is different - as not one woman in mine or DH family or any of my friends that have children have been mega sick with a girl especially....
I think thats just another myth as some were sick with just their boys and some sick with every pregnancy and others not sick at all even with a boy a girl and I know a few women who have all had different twim mixes and everytime the sickness was different or one woman wasnt sick atall with her twim gilrs......

So im sticking with that being another old wives tale as well as teh eating for two.....

Congrats again Cheryl and Lou and dont worry about the low placentas as they do move round for many women - Mine was low at both my last two scans and is being monitored like you are and has already started to move up and round as my bump has got bigger so im sure you'l both be fine....

Manny - you will be able to tell the difference after youve felt them a few times between a tummy rumble, a shift when youve moved position or trapped wind and the flutters of your little baby - I felt mine a few times within a week and then was able to tell them apart from the other things it could be and yes I could feel those beautiful flutters from early on too...enjoy, x

Right im off to collect DH from the airport afetr being away for the last 17days with work - final trip of the season and hes then home for a good long while - yay!

Enjoy your evenings ladies and I hope you are all well and looking after yourselves....xxxx
