TTC after loss - over 40 - any takers? Our lucky thread - 9 rainbows and 1 BFP

[Oasis717]

I don't know lol, i think it was my terrible food aversions! I went off all junk in particular and apart from that ice cream the weekend (small pot) I've steered away from anything bad, also I still walk lots, not as much as before but prob about 5 hours a week or so only part I hated was she pushed quite hard trying to catch the hb, just like at my 12 week scan when they pushed hard cause baby was in a funny position, I always worry it'll hurt the baby, I know they're really well cushioned in there and she's been a mw 30 years so obviously knows her stuff but I still don't like it! Xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Oh and she also said those days I think baby is quieter they're actually not and have taken position in the back where I can't feel it! She also totally agreed I was feeling baby at 10 weeks when I explained to her, they're so active she wasn't surprised lol xxxx

Such great news snuggled up inside his/her mum kicking up a storm are you going to find out the sex ?

Hi ladies

DH is off playing soldiers today so I am trying to get some work done at home but no joy, keep getting diverted with sunshine, household chores and internet lol.

Left - lol at you forgetting to take temp, its good that you are relaxed as you never know, that's when it will happen xx This ttc is so stressful and sometimes I think that causes you not to fall because you become so obsessed with everything.

Becks - I know we worry but I am sure that babies are well cushioned. I actually fell down the stairs when I was pregnant with DS, slipped off the step but went to hospital and everything was fine. Can't remember how far along I was at the time. I bet you are relieved that you haven't put weight on but I think if I had the choice between MS and putting weight on, think I would rather the weight. lol.

Hey Lisa - where's my baby dust????? Or do you know something I don't? Lol. Sounds very confusing with your location and who you come under.

Moma7 - how are you today? You have defo got friends on here who understand and who you can air your worries too. I have learnt so much since coming on here and with hope we will all get our BFPs. Have you looked at charting and the website Fertility Friend. My chart is on my signature so you can see how it looks.

Crazy/Creative - hope you are both ok today and not feeling too sick.

Garf - still thinking of you hunny, hope you are ok xx

Sorry if I've missed anyone but I can't go back and forward on my computer to check the threads lol.

AFM - today I am 3 DPO and yesterday I felt rubbish. Was in a shop and had to hold onto something as felt really dizzy. Also bit of nausea most of the day. Later on in the day, had sort of crampy feeling on right side and didn't sleep too well as couldn't get comfortable. Not as bad today but feel a bit funny. Anyway enough of my symptom spotting already lol. Hope you all have a good day. xx

 

[Oasis717]

I love your symptom spotting Jo! I always get excited for you ladies xxxx I know I shouldn't worry, I've had the same with all the pregnancies they've always pushed hard, I guess they must be ok in there but I'm glad she said next app 25 weeks and should be very easy to hear then, it should be 28 weeks but she thought I'd like to come sooner xxx
Regina wed like to know the sex but I have a feeling baby will not co operate after dodging both the sonographer at the 12 week scan and the mw today! Xx

 

[josie1234]

Thanks Becks. After what that lady said, I have sort of got my hopes up that it will happen soon. Fingers crossed. I officially hate the TWW as it can all change and then its starting again. No smiley face today, was sort of hoping theywould go on forever lmao. Still a bit crampy. wonder what is going on in there. Well, we ll soon find out. I hope your little one keeps still and lets u find out the sex. So exciting. Xx

Sorry Jo, knew I'd miss someone, so sending extra dust your way!

Becks, glad your MW app went well. Saw mine today again. She got HB straight away and we ward a couple of real good kicks whilst she was doing it, but I didn't feel them.

I said to her about quiet days and she said the same as yours about how they are facing. If the are kicking downwards you won't feel it yet.

Hi to everyone else

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Jo, I've got absolutely everything crossed for you! I'm hoping we get to find out too so here's hoping baby is facing the right way for the scan! Xxx
Lisa my mw said couple of more weeks and baby's growth would make it so much easier as they're so small right now they can hide, we could hear the movements on the monitor but I couldn't hear the glimpses of hb she heard all I could hear was mine, I had a feeling we wouldn't hear but as she heard baby move so well and caught a glimpse of hb she was very happy, I'm just so relieved about my iron levels, when I had to take iron tablets last year they played havoc with my stomach and made me terribly ill! Xxx

Movements is a good sign. If a baby is unwell it stops moving, so the fact she heard the movement is great.

My MW first listened at 14 weeks and it was very faint and a bit tricky to find HB. They listened at hosp at 15 weeks and it took forever for them to get HB. However as baby has got bigger they find HB straight away, really loud and clear!

 

[Oasis717]

We heard it on the scan at 13 weeks and it was 156 mw said same baby is moving around loads meaning their ok so I won't worry, I think it's going to be an awkward lil one lol xxxx

When's your 20 week scan? Are to going to find it what you're having?

Well I'm off to bed I was falling asleep in th chair. My youngest has taken to waking every night so i'm not getting my full quota of sleep!

Have a good evening everyone

 

[Oasis717]

Lol I know the feeling Lisa! I'm the same everynight, fall asleep watching tele, 20 week scan is on the 21st May at 9.40, if they can tell we do want to know, i'll be disappointed if they can't see. Have to say my money's on a boy now as I'm still so i'll, I really thought it would be going by now but it's all back, horrible smells, horrible sour taste in my mouth getting a bit down about it now xxxx

 

[dancareoi]

How is everyone today?

DH just called, some little shite nicked his phone off his desk. We have our own Lettings business and we are in upstairs offices. He had left his iPhone on his desk and went into the other room, when he went back to his room the shite was coming out and made a run for it.

DH gave chase down a few streets and said he kept up with him, but the little shite jumped over a fence and DH gave up then.

Maybe just as well, because if he had caught him who knows what have happened.

The phone was all cracked on the back anyway and O2 have blocked it so its no good anyone now anyway.

Police were called in and they will check CCTV on the corner!

Anyway, as I say, how is everyone today for those TTC and TWW and PG.

 

[Oasis717]

Oh dear that's terrible Lisa, I can't believe that, I really hope CCTV shows up something xxxxxx

 

[crazymam]

that's awful Lisa, hope they catch them.
Hope everyone is ok, I don't have time to go through posts, back to work now so time is limited and I am exhausted so off to bed shortly.
Still feeling sickly too

 

[crazymam]

I know they say you feel your baby move earlier more pregnancies tyou have but didn't think you could this early?
But I know the difference between the fluttering sensation and gas and this aint gas! Started yesterday and there is a pattern, I eat and it flutters haha also If I have been resting

 

[Oasis717]

Jan mine started at 10 weeks! I basically got called a liar on another thread when I agreed with women saying the same lol, some people!! Xxx

 

[crazymam]

Becks I had to google it as didn't believe it myself but after having four kids you know! I started at 11/12 weeks with the twins . I think with pregnancy anything is possible and every woman is different. You cant say that everyone will feel the same things at same time. We are all unique, just like our little bambinos
Now I have another thing to worry about, if I stop feeling flutters haha

 

[Oasis717]

I no! I didn't believe it either, thought I was mistaken but it was in the same area, the same sensation all the time unlike gas which is all over, I still get exactly the same now but stronger, I'm still waiting on big kicks but I get taps and pushing now, I love it! Don't worry if you don't feel one day my mw said when baby us at the back you can't feel it but it's still all going on really pleased for you xxxxxx

I started feeling movement with this one about 12 weeks. Can't remember when I did with first , second was 15 weeks and third was about 13, so gets earlier each time.

When I had scan at 12 + 4 I told the somographer I'd had little movements and she told me it was too early!

I know what I felt and it definately wasn't gas!

As Becks says there are quiet days and busy days and on the quiet days you do worry but then the next day is busy again so you breath a sigh of relief and the cycle starts again!
