I tell you hun, you will not stop worrying until that baby is in your arms all safe. And after that you worry about whole new things completely normal. Even now, being 15 weeks, seeing peanut at 13 weeks, I'm still wondering if they're ok in there

I had red blood (spotting) at 7 and 9 weeks with my son. Its so scary but he is a very healthy two year old. They found no reason for it. Just one of those things. Could be old implantation blood hun? If you're worried don't be afraid to call your GP or early pregnancy unit

Maz - I feel exactly the same. I´m permanently really anxious, especially as at the moment I just don´t feel pregnant at all. I still have another three weeks to go until my scan and have no idea how I´m going to last that long. I suppose it´s normal.

A friend of mine had some spotting early on but her LO was fine and it stopped after a day or so x

So hubby has just come home from town with a test following my now third day of tummy ache. I can't see a second line but he is adament that there is a very (very!) faint one there. I am 7dpo so I know it is way early and not fmu.

Pic coming

[Soniamillie01]

Definitely a bfn, onwards to test day or AF. I'm not counting myself out yet x

 

[Emz1982_in_uk]

I'm on my phone and can't see properly Grrrrrr

CD7 is very early. Deffo not out yet x

 

[Soniamillie01]

I don't see it and know it is very early.
I guess I hoped it would be (as we all do when we test) just to explain the tummy aches / pains.

Maz - with my DS I had thick brown discharge on three seperate occassions between 7 and 10 weeks - totally normal. If it was bright red blood then I'd get it checked but you are absolutely fine. With me, it was old blood being pushed out as my uterus expanded, like my body having a clear out if you will... ! It was very scary though, and often accompanied by strong camps - again normal - everything stretching! Every twitch and ache is going to make you worry and as easy as it is to say - relax Are you going to get a doppler? I picked up my DS's heartbeat at just over 9 weeks on mine - but that was reall early, I believe the're recommended after 12 weeks? But so reassuring.

Almost - so good to see you back! I can feel our BFP coming soon and I can't wait. I'm going to be chuffed to bits when you get your BFP. Can't wait for you to get answers from the doctor about that annoying spotting.

Sonia - I remember the name of the vits I took with DS now - Pregnacae! Sorry about your BFN - but DEFINITELy not out - CD 7 is soo early! I got the faintest BFP ever at CD 12 with DS.

How are you Emz, and our other ladies?

Thanks for the reassurance everyone, when I think about it there really wasn't that much there at all, and it was only once when I wiped this morning. It hasn't come back since so I'm hoping it will stay away. TMI, but I had a 'big O' a few hours beforehand, and I wondered if it was somehow to do with this - a bit of old blood coming out due to spasms or something?! It's certainly put me off for a while, and it wasn't even bd either - will definitely not be doing that! I'm trying to not panic about everything so much, but every little twinge is a worry. Will try harder to relax from now on.

Have got my medical Monday so will mention it then just to be on safe side. Can't wait to get my first midwife appointment sorted. Will be interesting to see what EDD they give me, based on Ov date I'm 5 weeks tomorrow, but on LMP date I'd be 6 weeks! Surely they can't base it on then though if I know I didn't ov until CD22?

Me and hubby bought some cute onesies today from Gap outlet, couldn't resist! I think they are good for a boy or a girl and quite funky for unisex, so had to get them! Will try not to buy anythng else so early though. Contemplating getting an early scan done at 8/9 weeks, can do it in Leeds for £69. I think this is a price worth paying for a little early reassurance. We want to tell families on Mother's day at 11 weeks, so it would be nice to know whether everything is looking ok before we say anything.

Sonia, I can't see anything, but that's to be expected. Try again on Tuesday at 10dpo and hopefully there'll be something to see then! Good luck

Very cute outfits x

 

[MissBroody]

That could have been it then Maz. Those vests are soo cute! An early scan would be great, especially if you're going to make an annoucement before the 12week scan. I fibbed about my LMP date - because they base it on everyone having a textbook 28 day cycle and my cycles ae 35 days, so I added a week onto my LMP date! As it turned out, the date they gave me was only 2 days out fom what I thought I was going fom my LMP and O being on CD 22. I thought I was 14 weeks, and they told me 13 weeks 5 days. They'll give you a date based on measurements at 12 week scan though - and the're usually quite accurate So exciting to get that first midwife appt. - makes it all so real!

[mazndave]

I might add a few days on then and say it was the 29th December instead of 25th, and say I ov'd on cd18. Like you say I'd get a more accurate date at scan anyway, but wouldn't want them to initially date me a week ahead than I reckon I am, and then them say baby wasn't growing as well as it should be!

24 days until your scan!!!! Can't wait to find out what you're having - I'm still hoping for 2 Freya-Rose's!

[MissBroody]

Good plan. It won't be long til your 12 week scan!! Eee. When will you have the private scan? That'll be in a few weeks?!! Hehe I'm hoping for 2 Feya-roses too! But 99 per cent sure I'm having a Noah or reuben! Do you have a gut feeling of what you're having? I think you're having a girl.

xx

 

[mazndave]

We're going to book it for either 26th Feb or 4th March! Would have it a little bit sooner but want to give it good time to show a heartbeat!

I don't think I have a gut feeling really yet, I suppose if I think about it I reckon it will be a boy as well. I don't mind at all what I have, I sometimes think I really want a girl then feel disappointed that it wouldn't be a boy, and vice versa! I love both of my names so I'd be a bit sad about the one I don't get to use!

I'd quite like to be having one of each, but think twins would be too much of a handful!!!

[MissBroody]

I feel the same. I'd love a little girl to do the pink, dresses, bows..thing and use my girl name, but then I'd be sad in a way that we'll never have another boy (if it's a girl we'll stop at 2) and I wouldn't get to use my boy's name and get some more use out of the lovely boys clothes that Harrison had and barely wore. I think twins would kill me

[Soniamillie01]

Hi all, how is everybody? Sorry I've been a little quiet over the weekend have been really busy.

I'm now cd20, I did a manual override on FF to push ovulation to cd11 as that is when I got my positive opk. My temp has really shot up this morning, normally in region of 97 post ovulation, this mornings was 98.45 plus looks triphasic - good sign I guess? Tummy ache still continues plus sore boobs and now have a stinking cold and sore throat - just my luck when have lots planned this week. AF is due tomorrow - testing Thursday / Friday x

This is sounding REALLY positive hun, I think this is definitely going to be your month! My temperature was about the same as yours before my BFP, and tummy ache, sore boobs and cold are all excellent signs - I really think you're joining the preggo club this month Sonia! Can you not test tomorrow at 10dpo?! I really want to know, and it's when my positive first showed up, so yours may too.


I've got my fingers crossed for you, I really hope it's your turn, and you can be part of the 'precious pumpkins' as well with me & BBH!

[mazndave]

I've just checked and at 9dpo my temp was 36.69, and at 10dpo when I got my first faint postive, it was 36.85. If yours stays quite high tomorrow morning, I really think you should do a test.

Ooh, this is exciting!

xx

 

[Soniamillie01]

Thanks hun, I hope it is too but trying not to get my hopes up. Did you get a negative (as in stark white, no chance of faint line etc) on 9dpo and then a faint line on 10dpo? Just re-checked and my temp this morning was 98.22 (36.79) (sorry typo this morning) but is still an increase on yesterday (36.67).

I am a big old ugly bear with a massive sore head this morning, I am so snappy, irritable and really angry - for no reason! I went crazy this morning after one of my team called in sick with a flu, that is really unlike me! I feel very emotional inside, like I just want to hide away, not tearful but more irritable. Makes me think AF could be on her way but not normally like this at all.

Just checked my temps:

Ovulation: 36.23
2dpo: 36.5
3dpo: 36.53 approx
4dpo: 36.45 - also spotting on this day
5dpo: 36.63
6dpo: 36.63
7dpo: 36.48
8dpo: 36.67
9dpo: 36.79

I have now linked by chart to my signature. My chart this month is very similar to last months in terms of rising then dipping then rising etc.

I may test tomorrow if temp stays up, will then be 10dpo. Now that I have done the overide on my ovulation day, when I tested on Sat would have put me at 6dpo - how stupid to waste the test!

 

[mazndave]

My test at 9dpo couldn't have been more white if it tried!! I'd pretty much ruled myself out on the basis of that test! 10dpo was only just visable on the cheapies, wasn't until 12dpo when I did the Tesco test that I got a dark line. I'll list my temps & then you can see that it's a similar pattern really:

O day: 36.27
1dpo: 36.33
2dpo: 36.45
3dpo: 36.49
4dpo: 36.56
5dpo: 36.43
6dpo: missed - I think this may have been implantation day as got rise after this
7dpo: 36.72
8dpo: 36.66
9dpo: 36.69
10dpo: 36.85 faint BFP
11dpo: 36.80
12dpo: 36.86 strong BFP

I can understand why you don't want to get your hopes up too much though, as our bodies can play cruel tricks on us sometimes. I really hope this isn't the case, and your signs this month are real preggo symptoms and a lead up to Your BFP! From an outsiders point of view it does look promising.
