Hi Jada!!

Good thing you're already thinking about finding out gender or not :-) That way you have one more thing to think about once you get there ;-) I wouldn't worry at all about being a few weeks before the end of your waiting period. Maybe it's not comparable, but after my cp, our gyn told us to wait one cycle, which is about 4 weeks for 'normal' people, but more like 5 or 6 for me. By the time I ovulated, I was already 4 weeks past the cp... So we decided not to miss the opportunity and good thing we did, cause that resulted in our little girl :-) I'm sure these few weeks won't matter, maybe they even take into account the possible impatience of their patients when determining the length of the waiting period, who knows :-p I'll be crossing my fingers for you, hun!!!! :-)

Baby dust!!!! :-)

Alice

Alice,

Thanks for those kind words! I say that when God knows I am ready then His time will be the best time for me. I am just going to do my part and keep "practicing", LOL!!!

How are you feeling? You getting to rest any? I was off today (four day weekend!!) so I went to the pool for a 30 minute workout, then went to get my nails done, shopped a little, then went to get my hair done :) Yep a good day...ha ha!

Jada

Hi ladies, im having a hard time at the mo, and self doubting myself as I have just suffered another cp, I just feel that there is something wrong with me to not be able to carry. in 7 months of trying ive suffered chemicals and a miscarriage, and it makes me feel like its all my fault even though I cant explain it has anyone else here suffered self doubt? I think im struggling to come to terms with it this time, we are putting ttc on hold for a little while to try and get back to normal and for me to get myself checked out with the gyne, hopefully they will have some answers for me. I was going to stay away from the site for a little bit but I just need people to talk to that understand which is why I have come to you ladies xx

Hay Ladies!!! :)

Ahhh Missytwoeshoes, so sorry to hear that your appointment didn't go well, but sooo glad to hear that you saw your lil baby ;) Its sooo amazing to see that is in it? Do you know when is your next appointment?How you getting on back at work? Did you told them? Ah it sucks about maternity in USA, i really tought that all countries are the same when it comes to maternity...so sorry to hear that, but we will have all summer with our babies :) Sending you lods lods positive vibes and lods of love hun :)

Hay Alice hun!! Yea my ear infection seems to be gone, but the other day i had v bad pressure in my both ears, but then it went... i just hope that antibiotics clean all infection out cos if not i will need to live with it until baby is born, that what doctor said to me....Ahh hun so sorry to hear that your dreams are so scary, mine are more fun and weird, last night i saw big beaver, it was white like a snow, and lol....he was talking to me lol crazy lol....so silly dreams!!! I guess every country has there own maternity rules, but i think that moms have to be with their newborn babies at least 4 months!!! My next appointment is next wednesday :) Can not wait, i got a letter, but i need to ring them to double check if thats the right one, cos my doctor sent me to the same hospital for infertility check up before i got pregnant, so maybe thats related to that, just gona ring them today!!! :) Omg hun can no believe that you nearlyin your 3th trimester!!! yea i heard that tiredness returns then. So glad to hear that you can feel lil girl kickin every day, can not wait to start feeling that myself :) Lods lods love hun :)

Hay Jada hun, thanks, yea my ear infection is almost gone and i feel much better :) Yeey for ovulation :) Are you doing opk? I hope it will happen for you hun v v soon!! So you are officially trying now??? :) Ahh hun, sounds like you had a fab day!!!! :) You deserve all the pampering on the world :) Sending you lods lods baby dust hun xxx

Hay MommyHildson, so sorry to hear about another cp hun...i know how you feeling, but its not your fault hun. Please stay positive, i think is great to take a bit time off all the bbt and tests and tracking ovulation, and just have a bit fun, and start trying when yea are both ready to do it...and hun, have you talked about this to your doctor?? They can help alot, and maybe its just something small like low hormone or something whats so easy to fix. Just please stay positive, and we are here if you need someone to talk to...we all went true that, and its the worst experience ever, but we all stayed positive and didnt give up. Sending you lods lods hugs and lods of love hun!!!

Well, its our 1 year Wedding anniversary coming up in october, my hubby planed suprice for me :) We are going back to Portugal where we got married for few days!!! Sooo excited :) Thats our last Holiday just two of us :) Can not wait to just go and relax by the beach:) Otherwise nothing much to report, i feeling great, not feeling tired as much anymore, not feeling sick, the only think is bbs hurts and i put on a 2kg so far so my pants are getting bit tight lol Gona ring office and just double check my appointment, hope it is the right one. :)

Nikolina

Hey ladies, hope you all had a great weekend I definitely enjoyed my four day break :)

Nikolina, hey hun! Your upcoming trip soungs amazing! I know you can't wait to go :) I am not using OPKs this month, just going to see how it goes ya know?

Carole, I am so sorry you are going through a rough time right now, but know we are here for you! Please know that this is NOT your fault and your LO is coming! Have you scheduled your appointment yet? I know it's hard, but stick in there and remember we are here if you need us!

Alice, hi! How are you feeling?

Missy, how are you doing? Hope all is well, we are missing you on here!

Emmy, thinking of you :)

AFM, I am doing well. As I said I had a great break, spent time with the hubs so that was good. Did a lot of shopping :) Just because...lol. I think I ovulated for sure last week...so we shall see what happens sooner or later!

Jada

Thanks for your support its much appreciated, I know deep down it cant be prevent and what will be will be, im going to the hospital in 2 weeks to see the gyne and hopefully we can find out whats going on, I think that its my endo that is causing me problems TMI now ive been suffering major bleddig and clots which I get when the endo starts to spread, Im hoping it is this as I know it can be treated again via laparoscopy so fx I get the help I need. I hope all you ladies are ok and I send you all baby dust. Thank you again for being there for me xx

ahh! Sorry guys I hadn't realized a week passed by since the last time I posted in here. shame on me! :p

Alice, oh yes, they def will be trying again at the next appt and I REALLY don't look forward to it. :( You should be able to get by with one car for a while. We did for 7 years and 2 kids. :) It's possible! How's your sweet baby doing? Causing any discomfort yet? Getting any braxton hicks contractions? yay for buying a car seat! I love baby carseats. :) Well, that's not true I love car seats in general... lol. But I'm a bit of a car seat nazi.

Jada, Thanks. :) Yeah hubs got a 2015 chevy spark (used) and I got a 2013 chevy impala ltz (also used). I love love love it! It has a sun roof and leather seats (heated) and should be fitting 3 car seats... that's the main thing. lol. Your car sounds nice, I'm jealous. lol. How awesome would it be if you conceived this cycle without needing anything to help you! I will cross my fingers good things are happening! How nice you got a 4 day break. My hubs only got 3 day break.. and it went by quickly. :/ Also jealous you got to go shopping with just hubs. I don't even remember what it's like.... lol. My kids go everywhere with me it seems, I don't even get to grocery shop alone, or take a poop alone. >.< lol. Sometimes it would be nice for some privacy but that's ok... my oldest likes to tell me jokes while I'm doing my business. haha.

Mummy, I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. Very normal feelings though. I'm also sorry you had another CP. :( it took 13 months for us to conceive this one. I experienced self doubt A LOT. Also normal. But all you can do is seek help, do testing and see if there's anything hindering the process. Mine was progesterone, just didn't make enough. Got supplements and now all is well. You'll get there too hun, you just gotta get it figured out the right action plan for you.

Nikolina, my Next appt is October 5th, seems like ages from now. :( Esp now that they bumped up my due date. Haven't started back at work yet, just had 2 training days. I start officially tomorrow, but I'm not looking forward to it because my girls were sick and now they got ME sick. :( Yes I told my bosses the second day after training. I still have to tell my co-workers in my room though so they know why I'm leaving to pee every min lol. How nice you get to go back to Portugal! I hope you guys have a good time! Whens your next appt?

AFM, I had another ultrasound yesterday for "dating purposes" even though like I said I already had one with a different clinic. Oh well, haha, I didn't want to say so I could see baby again. :p But baby was measuring 7 days ahead so they moved my DD from 3/19 to 3/12. So I guess now I'm 13 weeks not 12... so almost in my second trimester!! woo! Even closer to finding out what the baby is if I do.... which should be some time in Oct. Eek! :) My MIL REALLY want's to do a gender reveal party. lol We shall see.... My girls start school this week so we've been very busy trying to get everything ready for that. Oldest in Kindergarten and youngest starts preschool 3's. :) Every tuesday I will get 2 1/2 GLORIOUS hours to myself until baby arrives. I will be using that time wisely.... grocery shopping, naps, errands, more naps, seeing friends, again more naps... lmao. :)

Hi sweet ladies!!!

Shame on me too for taking so long to reply :-$ These have been busy times!

Jada, lol, you can never have enough practice ;-) I'm secretly crossing my fingers for you!!! :-) Hoping that it happened 'by accident'!!! ;-)

Missytwoshoes, such great news, being at 13 weeks!!!! :-) Yay, the most scary part is behind you!! :-) Nice to know that one car is definitely possible! :-) Too bad your next appointment is only in October :-s But I guess that gives you some extra time to think about finding out gender, yes or no :-) I can totally understand how much your looking for to those Tuesday hours just for you :-) And the baby ;-)

Nikolina, congrats on your wedding anniversary (soon), that trip to Portugal sounds so wonderful!!! :-) I'm glad you're feeling well :-) Don't worry about the weight, you can use it ;-) I'm now at 7,5kg extra :-p So exciting that your next appointment is already next week (well, hopefully, if it wasn't the other appointment that you don't need anymore, yaay!!! :-p)! I'm happy that your dreams are more fun :-) Very original too, talking beavers :-p I hope the infection is gone completely!!!

Emmy, hun, thinking of you and sending you lots of love...

MummyHillsdon, I'm sorry for your cp... :-( I think it's normal that you blame yourself, though not justified! We all had bumpy rides, it can be very hard... I hope you are giving yourself all the time you need to get through these losses? Don't be hard on yourself, do the opposite... And don't be scared to seek help if you feel like you want or need it. You'll get there, hun!!!

AFM, I'm 6 months!!! :-) Time flew by recently... I'm not having the contractions, but I'm having an 'unstable pelvis', for which I have to do exercises a LOT :-s In the meantime, I'm trying to focus on my job, when actually all I want to do is preparing everything for the baby :-p I'm SOO jealous of those women who are just at home during their pregnancy :-p I have too many ideas and WAY too little time. Plus, actually I don't have the energy either :-p My mind and my body are seriously at a different speed :-s

Sending you ladies lots of love!!!

Alice

Hi sweet ladies!!

Nikolina, don't you worry about it :-) Gaining weight is healthy and inevitable at this point :-) And we really can't choose how it happens, that's true :-s I was secretly hoping that some weight might settle at my tiny breasts, but nope :-d Lol :-p I'm sure we'll lose it again once the baby is born :-) Amazing that you already have a bum! :-) I'm not too nervous yet about the delivery, more about everything else that needs to be arranged :-p Nice that you'll be painting already when you're back from your trip :-) That will probably make it feel more real too :-) So great that your next appointment is already this Thursday!!!!! So is mine :-) I'll be thinking of you :-) Good luck, hun!!!!

Lots of love to all of you!!!

Alice
