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

Hi all,

Jo, glad DH is back, enjoy the next 4 days!

Becks, our garden is just grass as neither of us likes gardening!

Creative, good luck for tomorrow

Fiona, I have to be honest and say the first few weeks went very slowly. I think it was because I had a scan very week starting at 7 + 4. The time seemed to drag between each one.

It does seem to be getting a little quicker now though.

Hope everyone enjoyed the summer! I say that because that might be it now!

Well must waddle off and do some housework!

Sorry can't help on this one, I have no idea of what levels should be.

Im the same Fi I don't know what the hcg levels should be at what level lol, I only know what mine were at 5 weeks one day but I know that progesterone level is cracking!!! I remember mine was 72 and I was over the moon as they'd said they were hoping for between 18 and 25 for a successful pregnancy so that's brilliant!! Xxxx

We've got no grass Lisa we have a lovely little courtyard garden with corner and side plots for planting and dh has been doing loads barrels and pots full of flowers, it looks amazing, he's just done all our decking, steps and fences in a lovely green with lots of hanging baskets etc, he's a real dab hand at that as well as cooking! Xxxxx

Just looked it up 3 weeks pregnant levels should be between 5-50 and 4 weeks 5-426 so sounds spot on! Xxxxx

He sounds fantastic, what more could you want

We have quite a large garden to the front and rear so keeping on top of the grass is all we can manage, we did have a flower border at the front but it became a weed border, so last year we cleared it out and put down some stone chippings. DH was putting a little log border Around it at the weekend so it looks nice and neat now.

Josie - yes I have a bump! you can just start to tell now although I have felt huge for weeks haha, My boobs seem to be getting a lot of unwanted attention though! sickness is getting better and tiredness almost gone now too.
As for positions be careful about the pillow under your bum. That's where I was going wrong I think, as I found out at last miscarriage that I have a very tilted cervix! So I was told to turn over as I was actually making it harder for the little swimmers to reach my cervix .

 

[Oasis717]

Lol I know Lisa I used to pinch myself cause he was too good to be true I thought there must be a catch! But there never was well I may have waited a long time to find my Mr Perfect but he was definitely worth the wait lol. Your garden sounds lovely, perfect for the kids to play, my son sometimes wishes we had grass but we have a large park 3 roads down so it's not so bad, we take him there for football, he likes that xxxxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Wow everyone's tickers are moving along so fast !! Soon enough it will be deserted in here lol...... Hello everyone , I'm annoyed as my ic did not arrive again today . By the looks of things AF will be here before they are !

 

[Oasis717]

It will be you and Jo next Regina! It's def your turn, I used to be so addicted to testing, I got through absolutely huge amounts of ics, I just loved the wait and the squinting to see if anything came up! Still can't believe I got a line on an ic at 6dpo when they're supposed to be a lot less sensitive, must of had a good batch lol. I can get excited for you ladies now as I can't test anymore xxxxxxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Well I'm hoping they turn up tommrow ..... 11dpo , let the testing begin ! 6dpo really !!!! Omg ........ Bet you were not expecting that

I'm just back through the door. I am having one healthy little baby due a few days ahead of my dates so due on 26th November. Making me between 11+3 and 11+4. Blubbed like a baby when I saw the heart beat. Will post the scan in the morning as I am off out in a few minutes.
