TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

Well I can't have a homebirth after 42 weeks so after that it's up to me to decide whether I want to consent to a medical induction or just wait for things to happen themselves. Really don't want to get induced so hoping baby decides to make its appearance sooner than later!

I hope so too! Good luck Hun!
 
Wow Wow Wow - what alot of news!! Sorry I wasn't on in sooooo long but we finally got into the new house at the weekend so the last 2 weeks have been just manic and I couldn't get time off work its so busy so every evening and weekend was just taken over!

But seriously wow ELT - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! I am so happy for you I bet you still can't believe it!

Happy, I am so sorry that you felt so close, has AF arrived yet?? I was 4 days late 2 cycles ago and went into a solid depression for a few days after - can't imagine how it feels to get a slight pos on a test then a bfn. Hope your holding up ok x

Sweetpea - Congrats on Baby Scarlett and I just love the name!! Is this our first baby on here????

Jessica and MarieB - Hope all is going ok for ye - can't wait to see the baby pics -

Runnergirl & MarieB - ye look fab, although it seems like the unobtainable - I cannot wait to have a bump, can't barely remember my last one - it was 6-7 years ago!!

Mamamac & Issac - Sorry the witch got you, I think I'll be joining you this weekend or early next week :(

Hope I haven't forgot anyone!

Afm, somewhere in the tww not 100% syre I think the witch is due Sunday/Monday but wouldn't count myself late until Thursday. My cycles are going between 27 - 31 days this last few months and I'm not doing opks or temps or anything just going with the flow!

Got DHs SA results back today well I phoned the doc and the nurse said they were there but she couldn't read them she put me on hold and came back to me saying the doc say 1 thing is slightly low its 3% but should be 4% but its still in normal range just the lower end of it and everything else was find. Collecting the results this evening so might be able to make more sense of it with the help of google. I'm seeing the consultant next Tuesday anyway so no point going through it with GP specailist will know better. Thats it really no symptoms nothing zilch zero. Have pretty much given up all hope - was distracted with the house dunno how I'll cope now thats over (well the worst is over we are finally in lots more to do but the pressure is off!). DS is 6 this week so that will bring a few tears along with the PMS - double low blow!!

:)
 
Banana - good to hear from you! Glad you're into the new house! Also good news on SA and fx for your specialist visit!

Marieb - good luck with baby!!! Fx you can do your home birth without induction! :)

How's everyone else doing?? Hann, Runner, how are the bumps?? :)
 
bump is good here. baby woke me up this morning around 3am dancing:) its the first real consistent movement Ive felt so I was totally happy about it! 19 weeks thursday! <3
 
Hi nice to hear from you banana! Will keep my fingers crossed for you for a bfp. So glad you have the house sorted!

Mama - almost ov time!!

Happy - did AF show :(

How are you feeling Elt?

Got my fingers crossed for you Marie! Really hope you get your home birth

Runner - that's great about the movements, they'll be no stopping it now!
Mine moves around all over the place, mainly at night. Or maybe I'm too busy in the day to notice lol!
Barely getting 2 minutes every time I see the mw, they just rush me in and out and don't even check my urine even though I have a history of uti's. it's quite frustrating! I don't know if its being a second timer that they don't care!
Got the inlaws here until tomorrow morning which is okay but I find mil stressful. She obviously finds playing with Annabelle boring so she sticks her in high chair and makes her watch her do the ironing etc! In general I'm exhausted and it would be nice to get proper help but everytime people come to visit to help they want to do stuff to our house rather than look after Annabelle so I end up with no rest! Highly annoying!!
 
Hello ladies.

marie- I hope this baby decides to come on it's own so you can have your home birth!

banana- Thanks, I was in disbelief at first, but have come to realize that it is real, lol. When it doesn't happen for so long, there are times when you think it never will, so when it does, it takes awhile to sink in! So I bet your TWW went by faster this time with all the house stuff...and maybe you will be able to relax a little more since you are in the new place?

Hann and runnergrl- I bet it feels great to feel all that movement...I can't wait to feel that again allthough it seems like forever away at this point!

Happy- no AF yet? I just keep hoping your temp shoots back up and she stays far away, even though I know you have pretty much lost hope. Maybe the clomid will will do the trick!

Mama- that dip looks kind of nice...maybe you will o early this time!

afm- I was having some sharp pinching, and light cramping for a few days, that has mostly gone for now. What worried me a little more was a couple tiny pinpricks of blood on toilet paper a few days ago that happened twice. It never increased and I didn't have any severe pain, so I knew it wasn't anything I needed to rush to ER for. I don't remember having any blood with DD, but I do remember the cramps, so I guess baby is just settling itself in nice and comfy! Tests are also progressing nicely.
 
Elt I had some bleeding at 5.5 weeks, of course totally panicked as you do but had a scan at 6 weeks and it was fine. At the scan I asked what it was and they could find no reason for it so they decided it must have been delayed implantation bleeding. It's seems quite common for second timers to get some bleeding though, it's happened to quite a few of my friends
 
Hello ladies. Good to hear from you Banana. You have def been busy. Glad that you are in your new house! We bought one not too long ago. Hope this is the one we grow old in. I never want to do that again. Too much of a headache. I couldn't imagine actually having to build it...

Elt, I spotted some with my first and of course I obsesses over everything. Glad things are going well for you. Morning sickness kicked in yet? With DD it seemed to start before I ever found out I was pregnant. But that is a normal post o thing for me...

AF still isn't here. I expect her tomorrow though. Headache, tired, and over all just blah. I need a good run. I think it will make me feel better. Now that I've started running, I love it. I'm down 20lbs and looking for new workouts. Running is def my go to right now. So peaceful and I feel great afterwards.
 
Hey girls

Happy - I have to say there were times where it was just hell on earth building the house esp the painting and decision making with the tiles terrified I'd make the wrong choice and be stuck looking at it for years, I thought all that part would be fun but it was so stressful when you spending that amount of money! Plus we were living with my daddy while the building was being done we couldn't afford to pay both rent and a mortage so after living away from home for 10 years it was a bit of a shock to be back home plus Ov always seemed to happen when he was at home not working so bding was often tricky - hopefully now we will be less stressed and busy and can bd when we want not just when daddy is out of the house!!

Elt, thankfully you don't sound to worried anyway but I've a few of the girls on here on about spotting in the first few weeks so I'm sure all is ok :)

Hann & runner girl so exciting for ye to be feeling all that movement although I remember it freaking me out the last time!!

How are you Mamamac - holding out with the rest of us ok I hope! as for the progestrone cream, I've been terrible using it, it was just the way the first month fell with the house move, I could barley find a pair of socks the first few days let alone the cream, I've used it a few times but def not every 12 hours every 24 if I was lucky. Will give it a proper go next month. I know AF is on her way she's still 4-7 days away but she is coming!!
 
Banana - wow girl. I felt stressed just reading that!! I could only imagine how you felt. Maybe now things will be more relaxed and it'll work out with a BFP. Stress can ded play a part in fertility. Oh and I'm anxious to know the rest of your hubby's results. They sound similar to my hubby's with his last sample. He has been taking the Fertility Blend supplements and its been almost 3 months. Wow is all I can say. I can tell a huge improvement in his drive and the amount. Curious to know if his sample has improved. Dr doesn't want to retest yet. Not unless we have to do IUI. But wouldn't you know that when he's been on them 3 months I will be starting my Clomid? Coincidence? I think not! Haha

BTW AF still isn't here. But had another temp drop this morning. This one below coverline... I expect her at anytime now..
 
MarieB had the baby! I wont spoil the details for her, as I am sure she will; want to share, but just thought you all would like to know!
 
Temp went back up just above the cover line this morning. Feeling very crampy and feeling the full signs of AF.

For you ladies who use FF do you ever go look at "Charts Like Mine" option? When I go look at it, even with my temp drops yesterday it says out of the charts 68% are ovulatory, 38% pregnancy, and 2% miscarriage. The pregnancy charts look nothing like mine... I even changed the filters... Odd I think. I was just curious if you has also seen this?
 
Hey Girls

Whoooo Marie B - hope all went well!!

Happy - yeah I read back on my post and it did sound a bit stressful didn't it!! Ah it was all worth it now have our perfect house well perfect for us. Few people have asked what would we change and thankfully so far the answer has been nothing!!

I was going to start DH on meds but thought there was no point until I got his first results back, will see what the consultant says next week. I think she is going to start me on clomid too she said if I was back in 3 months which I am she will talk about it. When are you starting it?? Jes 3 months on the fertility supp and you starting clomid has to be a bfp in there!!! How long have you been trying again. This is cycle 10 gone for us now expecting AF Sunday or Monday - 99.9% sure she is enroute :(
 
Happy - I know with the temp drops its unlikely but have you tested again yet?? If no AF might be worth a shot?? :)

Banana - glad you're into the new house! Hope the specialist has some good news for you! You an Happy both seem like things are on the right track, bet you'll both have bfp's soon!

Yay for Marie and baby! Can't wait to hear all about it and see pics of the new munchkin!

Afm - clomid is finished up for this cycle so now just waiting to ov. If I stick to same cycle from last few I won't ov till around cd20. Will prob start testing early though just in case.
 
Mama - hope you OV on schedule. At least your cycles seem to be "regular" now with the Clomid. I hope the result is a BFP this time :)

I haven't retested yet, but was going to see if AF shows today as I suspect. If she doesn't by chance, I'll check test tomorrow. I don't wake at the same time (I know I should) and since its just barely dipped below cover, maybe there is a SLIM chance, but I'm not holding my breath for it. I'm just ready to move forward if AF would show up...

Banana - We have been trying for 15 months now. I can't believe it's been that long. Good luck with your dr visit.

That's wonderful though about your house. I'm glad that its all worked out and you are gettin settled in. I bet now that you're in you'll have your BFP soon.
 
Thanks for all the well wishes :)!

Baby Greyson was born on March 19 at 10:35. He's 7lbs 8oz and a super long 21.5".
The birth went off as perfectly as we could have hoped (only 6hours from start to finish) and we got to have our home water birth.

Hope you're all doing well!
