[Oasis717]

Xxxx well after four clear days I'm on the second day of nausea I thought I was going to be lucky and see the back of it but it's not to be! Xxxx

So sorry Jo - BIG

Still stalking ladies - just not a lot to report - feeling weird as if I don't fit in anywhere at the moment I'm not pregnant and I won't be TTC after this cycle for a few months

So I guess I will keep stalking and popping in to say hi to you all

Glad to hear all your pregnancies are going well

I've updated first page, creative I just need t check your age along with crazymam and left wonderin.

It's 44! The list now looks incredibly positive!

 

[Oasis717]

Fi you will always fit in here and as that list shows anything is most definitely possible! Xxx

Jo, sorry witch got you. Your LP is only 11 days. Mine was 10 days and I increased to 11 the month before I got PG. They say that a healthy LP is 12-14 days.
You can increase this yourself by taking vitamin B6 tablets. The majority of B6 in shops is 10 mg tablet but you need to take at least 50mg, which you can buy on line. My mom got mine off the Internet from a place in Jersey I think, I got a box of 360 tablets. If yo have trouble tracking down the website, will ask my mom for you.
Taking the B6 should help your LP. The work better when taken with other B vitamin supplements. I took pregnancare conception tablets which have 10mg of B6 along with a 50mg B6 tablet, which my doctor said was fine.

Becks, sorry sickness has got you again. I seem alright again now!

Have made first page look a bit neater. Looking very positive.

Fiona, stick with us, you do belong here because you will be TTC again before you know it.

Well, we told the kids today! I saw my midwife again this morning to HB, which was banging away nicely.

DH had taken kids to pictures, so when they got back we told them. My DS started to cry because he is worried the same thing will happen again that happened last time. We tried to explain that we are further on and it is now a low risk. He is now playing on his Xbox chatting to his friends, but I know he will be worried, because that's the way he is.

My DD was bouncing around all over the place! We are lucky we have a 5 bedroom house, so at some point she will now have the spare double bedroom, which has its own en-suite, so she is a very happy bunny!

Not told youngest because he won't understand. Here is an example of why he won't understand.

My mom has a picture of me, DH, DD and DS taken on DS on his communion day 3 years ago, I was 34 weeks PG at the time with my youngest. He was looking at the picture at mom's house and asked where he was. My mom told him he was in mummy's tummy. He looked at her and said " did mommy eat me?"

So he'll just think I've eaten another baby. The poor little thing will have nightmares!

Lol awww bless him!! I'm really glad you have been able to get to the stage where you are able to tell them, when I was first pregnant I never thought I would get this far, I really didn't. It's funny because we told my youngest today, we were going to wait until 16 weeks, another week and a half, but he was playing with his dad, they play fight and shoot each other lol, he's a proper boy, he came rushing over to me on the sofa and I just managed to stop him before he collided with my belly, obviously as he didn't know I can't expect him to be careful so we took the decision to tell him and explain to him that he had to be very careful with mummy as there is a baby inside that you have to be very gentle with, I think we made the right decision, he's a bundle of energy always running on full but this way he knows to be very careful with mummy, my two eldest are from my previous relationship and my 12 year old is with her dad for the holidays so I will tell her when she gets back xxxxx

Like you, never thought we would get this far!

Mine keep asking questions, like are going to find out wha it is and have you got any names. I've told them we don't want to think that far head yet. Just take one day a a time!

 

[josie1234]

Lovely to hear the updates and keep stalking Fiona. Think about you hun wondering if you are ok. Thanks for all the hugs. Will get some B6 thanks Lisa. Got more pregnacare as ran out. Said i wasnt going to chart but think i still will as its now habit lol.

 

[Left wonderin]

Garfie why do you talk such nonsense the place you fit is RIGHT HERE amongst friends )) we would miss you if you left us sure it will be no time at all before you are ttc again , the time will fly by !

Josie sorry the wagon got ya , she so can't take a hint !!!! At least now she is here she can do her worst and bugger off. Back to counting for you so and I have to say first month of charting and I love it

Fiona and Becks its wonderful to share your stories of how you told your families the wonderful news

AFM :7dpo - big temp dip this am barely above cover line , but I don't trust my themometer
Not sure why just don't !! Think my temps are all over the place but enjoying charting none the less. Is so tempting to " tweek " the info so it looks just right lol...... But I have resisted so far lol.....

 

[Oasis717]

Regina I'm hoping its just a fluke and your temps rise again tomorrow!! Xxxx

 

[garfie]

Hi Ladies

Thanks for keeping me in here and stopping me feeling sorry for myself

Remember last month I got what looked like a BFP and it was a s@@@@y evap

Today I am 9DPO and decided to test early as this will be my last one for a while and I got another dodgy test - this time on an internet cheapy (not that I've ever had anything on one of them before)

I tried to upload but it said file to big - it was like a big pink spot where the line should have been - so I guess I'm still in limbo land - I will need to know soon though as I have my blood tests coming up next week - or not

Regina - How is your temps today hun - mine didn't go down but didn't really lift either

Becks - Hope you are having a non sicky day today - look at you whizzing by now I have two boys 10 and 12 so I always seem to be in the middle separating them

Josie - Hope you are okay hun

Lisa - Loved the way your little one reacted - bless - in fact when I read it yesterday I teared up

to you all

[Oasis717]

Awww Fi I'm hoping its not another bloody evap, I got my first indication of my bfp on an ic, it was very faint but there, that's why I used the Superdrug test at 7dpo so I'm praying it's the same for you! So far today no nausea so hoping, hoping to have a good day, spent the last two asleep, it all seems to come together sickness, exhaustion, headache and hunger like pains, horrible! I think baby is having a disco in there as I write this they're going crazy, I think this is the most movement I've felt yet! My eldest took my son to the shops this morning where he wanted to buy a little present for baby, so sweet, praying he gets to give it to them xxxxxxx

 

[dancareoi]

Fiona, ooohhhh, do another and post a picture!

Regina, those temps look interesting.

Becks, glad you are having a better day and bab is having a good wriggle. It gives me such comfort when I feel it, but on the other hand I panic when I don't.

Hi to everyone.

I think my youngest thinks I have eaten another bab, we were trying to explain that mommy has a bab in her tummy. He looked at me and asked me to say aarrrggghh so he could look in my mouth!

My eldest keeps asking me if everything will be alright. I just said I really hope so. He is worried sick, bless him.

 

[Oasis717]

Aw Iisa, it's awful that after what we've been through everything is such a worry and your poor eldest, hopefully as time passes the worry will get less for us all, I keep reminding myself to stop feeling so safe but as everyday passes and baby gets stronger and stronger I can't help but picture myself making it to the end xxxxxxx

 

[crazymam]

WELL hope everyone is doing ok? Had no computer for dew days, but back online now.
Still feeling crappy so all good still I think? haha xx

 

[Oasis717]

Glad you are still feeling rubbish in the nicest possible way!!.xxxxx

 

[crazymam]

Its over ten years since I last looked at maternity wear and I really thought it would have improved, sadly I was wrong. plenty of everyday casual wear but nothing really for smart officewear unless you want to look even bigger than you actually are
