Hi everyone. Im celebrating even the smallest of milestones, we’ve moved to 2-3 weeks now and I have an NHS scan book 21st August and a private scan 13th August. Soooo excited!!!

Sometimes I think about bad things and anxiety and have terrible worries, but I think to just keep thinking of positivity and why won’t it happen to me if it happens to so many others.

I’ve already had 1 MC at 12 weeks and I’m determined to think it will never happen again! Hope everyone is ok. Laura xxx

Ps I know I’m so lucky to be in this situation and I am so grateful!

I think it's impossible not to be anxious, especially after a loss, but you're right to celebrate the small milestones. Congratulations and here's hoping for a smooth, healthy rest of the pregnancy xxx

Thanks honey. As my husband suffers from anxiety and depression it is tricky not to have the enthusiasm I would like. He does his best on the nuts and bolts but it’s wonderful to have this cheerleading squad to turn to xox

Oh god say that again , don’t know what I’d do without here! Oh bless him. That must be difficult for you to, I have everything crossed. How are you doing? Xxx

Well we leave Greece to go back to HK today. First day he’s smiled as he said it’s been like purgatory here... he’s happier now than when we got four amazing embryos. I feel fine though. So long as I block the disappointment out. He is AMAZING with his two sons from previous marriage so I know he’ll be an epic dad but he’s already said let’s not talk about IVF again... 🤡😎😱 xox

crisps88 profile image
crisps88 in reply to SparkleCock

It must be tough for him too, he must be hurting seeing what you’re going through. So positive 4 precious amazing embryos onboard though!! I have seriously everything crossed for you. And you’re right to only think positive, this cycle is going to be the one! X x x x

I met with my best friend today. We had a mani pedi and then a three course lunch at my favourite restaurant and then some reflexology. I said I was pregnant just in case and just got one of the best massages of my life. Most pleased with self :) also picked up some preggo tests so I can have a peek before OTD. I know it’s not reliable and my husband doesn’t agree with it but I can’t resist some early stick peeing. How are you? Xox

I love this day it sounds gorge. Literally throughout my TWW I spent it relaxing, going for meals, spa day and generally just doing Whatever I felt like doing mostly chilling on the sofa with food and my fur baby! I even slipped in some sunbathing. So you sound like you’re doing the best things! Omg I don’t blame you! You and master sparkle cock have decided on the weekend totest? I did it before husband knew too 5dp5dt I’m naughty! X x x

Thank you darling. How are you coping? Stupid question I suppose. So sorry for you again. Xxx

in reply to crisps88

Ur welcome so pleased to read success stories. I am ok found the last couple of days hard as period has come so sounds silly but found it upsetting and it’s been really really heavy and uncontrollable so quite drained. I know they are usually heavy but can only think it may be due to chemical. I will b ok just feeling sorry for myself and finding it hard when boyfriend doesn’t understand but hey this is why this place is great. U take care of urself xx

crisps88 profile image
crisps88 in reply to

Yeh it’s tricky,’I don’t think anyone really understands your situation evenness though OHs are with and around us a lot through bad times it’s the feelings of low and despair. Oh god first period is hideous I think because yeh it’s so heavy and hard but also because it’s the actual significance of the period that feels so cruel. I’m sorry for you love X x x

in reply to crisps88

I will b fine, u just concentrate on ur exciting & wonderful times ahead 👍👏🏻 Xx

The place where I am going is very good and the doctors are professionals so I hope they know what they are doing)) Fingers crossed) And I wish you the best of luck on your scan.

Sure, hun! I have already been to the clinic and signed my contract! Finally, my last journey has been started! Can't wait meeting our surrogate and got acquainted with her. I really hope that we will find a common language and can communicate from time to time.
