TTC and Beyond!

[brunettebimbo]

Sounds like you girls have some good systems going on I guess you just find what works for you all best. DH was self employed and working around 15 hours a day so he helped when he could. He has always been a great help.

TMI question from me, I'm still constipated, after straining, when I wiped there was like a creamy EWCM texture on the tissue? Does this sound normal?

Pregnancy is scary at the best but after loss it is absolutely terrifying! I keep getting excited then try and get myself to cool it because I'm so terrified of losing this precious baby too!

Just have to share... Evan was playing on his playmat and staring at one of the hanging toys. He put his arm up and knocked the toy then smiled. He was so proud of himself. It was so cute. So glad his little personality is coming out!

BB- I wouldn't worry about it and think it's probably okay. I was so constipated in the beginning and one time after bearing down quite hard, I had brown spotting. I never strained after that. I just took stool softeners and waited until my body was ready. It freaked me out!

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

aww! Go Evan! That's so cute!

 

[brunettebimbo]

Yayyyy go Evan

 

[Ingodshand]

Bb- prune juice and colace! I had awful constipation so sounds like this pregnancy is on track!!

It really is so scary after losing a baby but that first ultrasound is going to be amazing when you hear the little heartbeat! Just imagine that moment and try to dwell on the positive!

Yay Evan!!! Those little moments are the best!!

What is colace please?
I'm struggling to eat fruit, veg etc. Food aversions. I'm not really food at the moment! Loving bread, potatoes, pasta etc.

I have my scan in 6 days. Can not wait!

 

[Ingodshand]

Colace is a stool softener that is safe to take when pregnant. I would think they would have it where you are. Yay for your scan!! We heard Evans's heartbeats at his first scan at 6 and 3

 

[brunettebimbo]

I really hope we see something then!

 

[frsttimemama]

Kara, what a great system. Taking notes!

Waves, sounds like you both have a good system, too!

Bb, constipation was a problem for me, tto. I'm still scared.. I probably will be until we are in the truck heading home. We saw his heartbeat at 6+3 or 6+4. Fx for you!

Sarah, so cute!

Bb- I was constipated too.

well daycare said Alia puked again today....

 

[Disneybaby26]

Awe Nikki- that stinks!! I hope she's better soon!!

Had my 6 week check up today- cleared to dtd, although who knows when well find time! We're choosing to not use bc (just going to pull out and if it happens, it happens). Had a ton of ewcm today, is it possible I'm ovulating?? I've read a lot about how exclusively pumping is less likely to keep AF away because the sucking is different an also- only pumping 5 or 6 times a day-which they say isn't enough to keep AF away either...hmmm...

 

[Ingodshand]

I had ewcm too earlier this week. What the hell? If i get my period I will be pissed! Hoping it is just so weird hormone thing. Am i crazy to just want to leave it up to chance too?

 

[Disneybaby26]

Lol...depends on if you're in the market for another LO, haha! It's def a crap shoot bc we are def fertile myrtles right now!

 

[frsttimemama]

You guys are cracking me up. I would certainly not call myself fertile. Ever. Lol. Lucky maybe.

 

[Cowgirl07]

I will never call my self fertile
Go Evan.
I forget who asked but yes according to average l.p. af is due today. Ff says tomorrow through Saturday but I had longer cycles when I od later.

 

[TTCaWee1]

I had ewcm around 6 weeks pp

 

[Disneybaby26]

Weird!! I would assume it's pretty normal then and maybe not a fertility sign??

Katrina-are you gonna test or wait it out?

 

[Cowgirl07]

I will possibly test tomorrow morning, I will waste my cheapie, as long as af doesn't come before then. It will be 15 Dpo and one day late for af.
