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

[josie1234]

Creative - thanks hun

Garf - lol at the wrinkle fairy. She is one busy lady as she also comes to me. Thanks. lol - always keep active and do something that you enjoy and try to eat healthy. Mind you, I love my food. Anything you want to ask just fire away, tips for certain exercises etc. Fingers crossed the temps keep going up xx

Left - fingers crossed for you too. I have odd silver hairs that come through - and why do they stick out so much, saying look at me!

Crazy - time does fly. Yeh I think me, Garf and Left are waiting. About time we had another BFP. Good that you are getting your appetite back and well done on your exercising. As long as you don't push yourself too hard or try anything new. Your body will tell you if you are doing too much. Keep hydrated more and after first trimester it is not recommended that you do exercises lying on your back.

Becks - glad you got to hear HB and everything is fine, and you feel reassured.

Lisa - How are you today hun? I have altered the settings to manual but not sure what to put the coverline as, do I have to put that? Wonder how long my cycle will be this month.

Josie, about this not lying on your back after your first trimester, I always thought this was the case too. However this new pregnancy pilates dvd I bought has me worried, Its supposed to be uk number one dvd, and recommended by doctors to use in all trimesters but they are still doing exercises on your back! I was quite shocked to be honest. I am almost 12 weeks so I avoided those ones but has me worried now, some women will still do them and the girl on dvd is 36 weeks pregnant and doing them? Now I am confused.
I have ordered my Doppler and it comes tomorrow so guess what I will be doing all bank holiday weekend, the woman obsessed haha

Hi all,

I thought you shouldn't lie on your back after 16 weeks. I have filled the bed with pillows to keep me on my side!

For all you TTC and 2ww don't give up hope, on another thread someone has posted, she is 19 weeks PG and is 46.

Jo, Regina and Fiona any symptom spotting?

 

[Left wonderin]

Trying not to dance but my boobs have been burning all day , also got pains down the front of my thighs , feels like I ran a marathon ! And a bit of heartburn . Not reading anything into it though as I'm only 5 DPO so too soon for symptoms !!

Hi Crazy - I have done a Pre and Post Natal Fitness qualification and that was one of the things that was stated, it can reduce blood flow to the uterus. Not sure if link will work. But if you look on google about exercise in pregnancy. There are a few contradictions on websites though.

I am trying not to symptom spot as convinced my AF is on way. Still bit crampy and tired. Its weird as my legs (thighs) have also been sore but think that might be the classes I've done.

Didn't think I was going to see DH for a week as he had to go back on Weds for a training day but he has come home today for a night. Yay. DS on footie trip for weekend. Hope you all have a good Bank Holiday. Sorry can't comment on other posts as on advanced on computer so can't look back. xx

Not sure if I am 13 dpo or 10 dpo but trying to hold on to test. Fairy dust to us all ttc.

Morning Ladies

Just to let you know I won't be on here over the weekend - I'm off fishing! remember I told you about my b of an ex husband well he has decided to visit the boys so to keep things easy for Wills (he has autism) we prefer to keep him in surroundings he is familiar with if possible.

So ex husband comes for an overnighter (first one in nearly 6 months) we move out - hubby said he had a surprise a swanky hotel? overnight in a b n b? no bloody fishing! and we are staying out all night - at least the weather is looking good and he has promised he will order a take away and cook me a bacon buttie tomorrow it's the little things for me

Anyway as much as I love SS I can't because I don't know where I am ........ 11DPO (but look at the drop) so reckon she will be here soon - but I can't tell as I may only be 6DPO well I still tested this morning NEG

What a lovely temp increase Josie - when are you testing again?

Have a lovely weekend ladies and will still try and stalk - doubt they will have any internet though

[josie1234]

With regard to pregnancy dvds i am sure they will have checked what is allowed. I would do what you feel comfortable with. Lying on your back to sleep is different than exercising on back.

BFN today but may be too early if 11 dpo.

Garf - hope weather stays ok for you. Bet u are looking foward to takeaway and brekkie.

Hope everyone else has good bank hol. X

 

[crazymam]

Josie and garfie, could still be too early, relax and enjoy your weekends and test again after the weekend, if you can contain yourselves that long!
Both temps looking good though xx
I am omitting the exercises on my back, 12 weeks tomorrow so rather be safe than sorry. Its really just a dvd to complement the Suzanne bowen one I have, which is very good.

Just tried my Doppler, was about to give up as all I was picking up was my heartbeat and the placenta then I I found it! Never thought a gadget could bring me so much pleasure haha 156bpm
bad news is I used the free sachet of gel and have to wait for the new gel to be delivered! wonder if hair gel will work?

 

[Oasis717]

It's funny cause when I watched one born every minute they had heavily pregnant women on their backs, plus I was pretty much lying flat when the mw listened to the hb, I wonder if it's just sleeping rather than the odd time or two? I sleep on my left mostly and try to avoid lying on my back as much as possible, I'd rather be safe than sorry, loads luck to Jo, Regina and Fiona, hope everyone has a great weekend xxxxx

Brilliant, how reassuring!

I believe you can use baby oil but may be wrong!

Crazy - that's great about the Doppler, bet it was lovely to hear the HB.

How's the Bank Hol going for you ladies? Up to anything? Lazy day for me, DH left at mid-day to go back to High Wycombe so all alone til DS comes home on Monday.

Been going hot and cold today and burning sensation in nipples. Hope temp stay up and next couple of days go quick. This TWW is now doing my head in, think its cos temp went up so high this morning.

I think its mainly when exercising that you can't be on your back as obviously when exercising your body is working harder and therefore blood flow increases around body. Well, think I will be off to bed soon as feel tired. Hope you are all ok xx

Hi jo, you can have a nice lazy day tomorrow.

We will be out and about over weekend. Probably go into Evesham tomorrow stopping at a few beer gardens on the way and Stratford on Avon on Monday combined with a national trust place and more beer gardens

 

[josie1234]

Sounds lovely Lisa. Loved Stratford upon Avon when we visited. Really pretty. Hope weather stays nice. I take Exercise Bike class on Sunday mornings starting at 9 but will have lazy one after that. Have a good time hun.

We like Stratford and to there a lot as it is only about 25 mins from us. DH and I got engaged there and spent our wedding night there.

My DS sat 11+ exam for Warwickshire and could have gone to the boys grammar school there, which would have been a lovely place to go to school. He preferred a Bham gramme school so is going to that!

My DH does a lot of spin classes, I think I have done about 4 altogether, but as I said before I don't like exercise, maybe that's why I'm size 14/16 with GD!

 

[josie1234]

Thats good that it is so near. We stayed in a Best Western not far from there for our anniversary and we managed to get bridal suite as think we were youngest there lol. First bath me and DH could fit in together he is 6'1 i am 5'1 lol. It is hard to choose schools and as long as he likes it. Spin classes are like marmite, people either love it or hate it. Just find something you like doing. I hate running but do it now and again. Dont know people enjoy it lol. Well better get off. Been so bored tonight. Xx
