[Soanxious]

Hi Dan, my boobs are hurting far more today but passing brown dishcharge tonight.. just dont know

You're staying in Tenby? Beautiful! my favourite part of Wales. Im in Caerphilly the land of the Crumbling castle next to Cardiff You down on holidays? x

 

[Soanxious]

Oh no Becks but like you said its hopefully meaning more of a chance in future x

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Tanya, really hoping that brown discharge eases for you, it's so early still, could all be normal, try to stay strong you're doing all the right things. Must get some sleep we've been watching films all night! Xxx

 

[dancareoi]

Tanya we are in saudersfoot and we come down every school holiday. We love it.

My DH and I have been coming here together for the last 25 years!

How's everyone today?

 

[Oasis717]

Hi Lisa hope you're ok. Still no af and no more spotting, odd! I know I'm not pregnant as temps not high enough so I guess my lp will maybe be longer? Xxx
Jo dh has downloaded the ap too, he loves it, we've just been scanning bar codes for our breakfasts, how clever? He's joined a gym and starts today so we are going to do this together. I know he loses weight much much faster than me (he lost 28lb in 3 weeks at Slimming World in 2012 whereas I lost 11!) but he's a man and 16 years younger so I'm just gunna do my best and stick to the calories allowed and add my exercise everyday. Quite excited now! I will do my walk when he gets back from the gym to take over with the kids. Watch this space lol xxx

 

[Soanxious]

Hi all, im still plodding around same as yesterday...

Saundersfoot is lovely too.. My ex inlaws had a lovely caravan there..only thing I missed during divorce haha!

Becks, men and younger people always lose it faster... to be honest it stays off longer if you lose it slower.. slow and steady is the way to go.. eat less cals work out more and it should come off steadily x

 

[Oasis717]

Hope so Tanya! I know I can't stay like this any longer, I want the slim me back dh fault for being too good a cook and making me too happy lol xxx

 

[Soanxious]

I am not lucky enough to have a man that can cook.. his idea of cooking me something is crumpets with marmite!

My boobs are not as painful today

 

[Oasis717]

Lol well I love crumpets!! Don't worry my symptoms came and went ALL the time in the early days, I scared myself over and over every time my sickness disappeared or I felt absolutely fine! I must of thought it was all over about 10 times that's the sad thing about mc, pregnancy after is never the same but honestly my symptoms were on and off so try not to worry hunnixxx dh is a fantastic cook and cooks every night, I've just made him lunch after he's been to the gym and he asked was it his birthday lol xxx

 

[crysshae]

Becks - Yay for 12 dpo. So much better than last cycle so far! I know you say you're out, but are you still testing? Sounds like you are off to a great start already on your losing weight journey!

So - I agree with everything Becks said. All symptoms are on and off in the early weeks. We just read so much more into it after a MC. I hope that's all this is for you, just on and off symptoms, and that your little rainbow will arrive in about 8 months.

Jo and Fi - How are you today?

Lisa - Have fun!

 

[Soanxious]

Thanks Becks and Crystal... I really hope thats the case... im even sniffing things like coffee that I hate when pregnant... and thinking hmmm now is that smelling nice or horrid? I just think it was the low hgc reading and this flaming loss I have so wish we could enjoy every minute we are pregnant.. and treasure it for as long as possible.. Instead worrying xx

 

[Oasis717]

Tanya, unfortunately, we can't help but worry I will be exactly the same if I'm lucky enough to fall again, it's such a shame that mc takes the pleasure out of future pregnancies but you've got fab symptoms xxxxxx
Thanks Crystal but I've given up testing! My temps are too low for pregnancy and I've had a tiny bit of spotting after walking along with af cramps so I'm def out but that's ok, I want to get this bloody weight off anyway lol. I did an hours walk inc hill walks and me and dh are sticking to the calories on the ap so we'll see what happens when I weigh myself in a week xxxx

 

[josie1234]

Sorry its only short, been working all day in gym and then got to rush out to take bootcamp. Felt a bit out of it today, thought I felt ok but really spaced out lol (more than normal). BFN this morning on Superdrug HPT. No symptoms.

Great Becks, so glad that you are putting things into action and if DH doing it too, it's good, keeps you both motivated. So - how are you hun. Regina - any signs?

Fi, Lisa - how are you doing? Will check through thread later to answer any questions.

DH home this morning and slept til 4.15 pm today, he must have been tired. Catch you lovely ladies later xxx

 

[Oasis717]

You are such a busy bee Jo! Hope you feel more yourself later sorry about the bfn same here so I gave up testing. xxxx yes makes it much easier with dh doing it too, he's a huge chocoholic so if he's not eating it then I'm not either lol. Xxx

Hi everyone sorry about bfn Jo but those tabs have defo improved your cycle . So hang in there girl its hard but just try take it one day at a time .

AFM : more waiting till 6am ( 11 hours ) and I'm off to the hospital for induction . I've come to terms with it now so just hoping the gel works and our dear Sean only needs a nudge in the right direction can't believe next time I come home it will be with him ( please God ) there is still a part of me that does not believe this is real and I won't relax totally till he is safely in my arms . So ladies think of me and if ya pray say a quick one to the man upstairs that my LO arrives safe n sound

 

[Oasis717]

Omg Regina I can't believe it's almost time!!! I'm so so v excited for you. It won't be long before you're holding your precious lo in your arms. There's no feeling in the world can beat it. Thinking of you. Wishing you a speedy labour and sending you masses of love xxxxxxxxx

 

[crysshae]

Sending prayers for both of you, Regina. Sean will be in your arms very soon. There is no love like it.

 

[garfie]

Good luck Regina not long now Hun hang in there we will all be there in spirit cheering you on - come on Sean mama wants to meet you

Will catch up with all you ladies tomorrow - the Brits were fab! I'm tired
and still not well - but so glad I made the effort

Sorry for the bfns



X

 

[dancareoi]

Just a quickie to say Regina, love and hugs for tomorrow.

When you are PAL or PARL the joy of pregnancy is taken away and replaced by 9 months of constant worrying.

Regina, once Sean is safely in your arms, all that worrig fades into be distance and you become overwhelmed by love you have never known before.

I have done it 4 times and nothing beats that moment of seeing your baby for the first time and holding them. I would do it again tomorrow and the day after and the day after that ( well if DH hadn't had the snip and I was a bit younger!)

 

[Left wonderin]

Awh thanks everyone , I'm so excited now not quite sure how ill sleep but ill try !!!! Ill keep ya all posted xxxxxxxx
