TIE WELCOME JACK, HENRY, DEVON, ROXAS, PENELOPE, MATILDA, THEO and Charlotte!!

[waiting2c]

Exciting Jess!! Can't wait to hear - are you hoping for anything or happy either way?

Grace - how did your appt go?

I can't wait for next Saturday, have a scan to make sure all is well as been having lots of aches and pains and a wee bit of blood tinged cm. they recognize how anxious I am this time round after everything that happened with dev so are doing the best to help ease my mind. Waiting a decent length of time to be able to definitely see something!! Roll on end of first tri I say!

Appt went well. Doctor said baby sounded strong, said he still didn't know 100% why I was bleeding, he said that if I were in the 2nd trimester when it started it could mean a genetic defect, which sounded scary, but since I'm only in my first it could mean nothing. I feel like everything is ok though.

Yay for your gender scan Jess! I can't wait till mine!!!! And I can't believe I made it to 2nd tri, just a couple more days

 

[MrsStutler]

Oh I'm so excited for the scan Jess!

Well I caved and did a test, because when you have a bag of 100 hpts sitting there why not lol I saw something shadowy so I'm hoping it's the start of something!

 

[MrsStutler]

Well I think it's all over before the fun POAS adventure can begin. I've had some little cramps yesterday and today and now I have some really light pink spotting going on. Really hoping it's not AF starting but I'm not optimistic.

 

[waiting2c]

Is af due Kayla?? I hope it's not and it's implant bleeding or something!!

 

[MrsStutler]

AF is supposed to be on the 30th but I know I have trouble with my freakishly short LP. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much. I know O day was definitely Monday or Tuesday and everything was timed great so fingers crossed.

 

[MrsStutler]

The pessimist and optimist in me are having quite the fight. So far the bleeding hasn't stopped but it still isn't getting worse. Its changed from a creamy/pink spot to dark brown. Its still so scant that it's not even showing up on a panty liner. The cramping is not a bad, just intermittent and not anywhere near the severity my AF cramps are. So naturally I have been going between its AF and it's implantation bleeding. I did another test and so help me there is a shadowy line there. None of the time makes sense but it wouldn't be the first time my body made no sense. I am going to do my best to rest and not be on my feet as much, just in case, since that seems to really aggravate things.

Hi ladies!!!! Oh my god this thread is active again and everyone is preggo or ttc how exciting! a massive congrats to everyone!!! I have missed you all & thought about you tons. it has just been too painful to come on here after my realtionship breakdown etc and after the move I was without internet for 12 weeks. Me & Jack's father seperated last October after his refusal to deal with his abusive alcohol problem, I didn't manage to find a safe place for me & Jack to move to until March and it was months of hell. But we have a nice 2 bedroom flat and I am working very hard to pay the bils & keep us both safe and happy - it is working

I am in a new realtionship, it has shocked me. After the break up I was so hurt, I lost tons of weight and was in a bad place, swearing never to have a relationship, child, marriage etc. The guy I am with now was by my side the whole time despite me saying nothing will ever happen. He hugged me when I cried about my break up, he made me laugh, he played in the park with me and Jack (he is a family friend - my sister's brothe in law in fact - oops!) then one day I looked at him with so much love, I said let's give it a go. We haven't looked back.

I have had such terrible, short, painful cycles since all the stress etc & had a gyne app for tomorrow to discuss a lap & suspected endo, my OH was told after a horrible ordeal years ago that he has ruptured testicles & may never conceive naturally. Sorry for TMI but we have ALOT of sex. Being careful around ov times etc (or so the OPKS were telling me) well..... all week I have had tampons in my pocket due to severe AF pains... my boobs have swollen to twice the size and I have been an emotional wreck.

Our miracle is due March 4th.

I am still in complete shock and so so scared. With Jack I tried for 20 months and craved being pg so much. This has stunned me. But I feel it is meant to be and has happened, against all odds, for a reason.

Sorry for the essay - so happy to be able to catch up with you ladies again.
xxxxxxxxxx

OH wants to ttc again quite soon (a few months) but I'm not going to hold out much hope for anything I can't see a miracle happening I would love it but as I have this little precious in my arms I won't go crazy if nothing happens we won't be able to do Ivf again it's just so expensive but what ever happens, happens I guess.

[waiting2c]

Laura - she is a stunner, love love love seeing your pics!! Glad to hear things are going well!!

Kayla - any updates??

Yay our wee thread is back in business and I love it!!!!

 

[waiting2c]

Grace - you are second tri!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!

 

[MrsStutler]

Wow T! I'm sorry things were so rough for you, I'm happy you got out though and such an awesome surprise!

Oh ny goodness Laura she is just precious!!! All that hair is so cute!

Not too much new here. Same shadowy line on the hpt this morning. On the upside the bleeding has completely stopped! Still a tiny bit of cramps but not awful. I'm really hoping it was implantation bleeding but only time will tell.

 

[waiting2c]

Exciting!! I will definitely be watching this space!!

 

[Jess19]

Honey congrats!!! So glad to hear your in a much better place and everything has fallen into place for you! so happy for you

Laura she is absolutely beautiful!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE all that hair!!

Kayla ill be keeping my fingers crossed for you!! Glad the bleeding stopped


Well only 2 more days until our scan!!!!! Im so excited and nervous! Just hope that LO is healthy and that everything is good. Although I am secretly hoping for a girl, I will be happy either way And I know DH is hoping for a boy but I know he will be happy either way
I just hope that we can agree on a name, we have been butting heads over names lately lol we are both stubborn and cant find a good name to compromise on. We both have our favorite names for boys but for girls we have nothing at the moment. It will be nice to know so we can start really thinking of names.
My grandma asked why we arent just waiting to find out what the baby is when it is born and I told her that I dont feel like fighting in the hospital over a name and that this way we have the next few months to do it lol

Ill be sure to update as soon as we find out, my appointment is at 1:30

 

[MrsStutler]

This morning's test looked promising but the spotting is back. I'm thinking it's probably a chemical pg now, if the test is reliable. I don't think implantation bleeding lasts this long. It's really odd bleeding but I think it's just an odd AF.

 

[Jess19]

aww Kayla im sorry if its a chemical that line is def visible
are you still nursing?

 

[MrsStutler]

Yeah, even hubby admitted it was a nice line, it looks fatter in person too. I have a terrible phone camera. I still nurse lucy once or twice a day. I produce pretty much nothing. I'm going to make an appointment with my doc just to make sure nothing weird is going on. I've had really terrible cysts and mild endo in the past so this funky bleeding worries me. If there is one thing that's reliable about my cycle it's freakishly heavy periods and this is just weird, it's pretty much gone now. I wish I had some inkling of what the hell is happening in there.

 

[Jess19]

That does seem a bit strange. Hope you get it figured out soon. I know the "not knowing" would drive me crazy too lol
I remember when I really cut back Charlottes nursing time I had like 2 months where I had horrible cysts! The pain was terrible I called my dr and she gave me my prescription back for my pain meds that I had before I got my bfp because I always have a problem with cysts. Not every cycle but more often than not. I think when my cycles were returning it was bad because I was releasing megga eggs lol

Also I've read multiple times that when your nursing your 10x more likely to have twins! just throwing that tid bit of info out there lol

 

[MrsStutler]

Oh sweet baby Jesus, twins would be awesome but not awesome lol I just want one sticky little bean. I had a lot of trouble with cysts when I was in my teens but with birth control or being pregnant they seem to settle down.

 

[MrsStutler]

Well whatever was there before is gone now. It was probably just a fluke test or a chemical.
