TTC again

I’m 38 years old and last year I had a miscarriage at 37. It took a while to feel ok to try again and this is the first TTC since. I don’t want to tell any close friends and family, so I thought I’d come here and share that we’re trying for a baby again!
Let’s the journey begin for a rainbow baby 🌈

Hi Pam, I had 2 chemical pregnancies when ttc no 2. He’s 5 days old now, and he is perfect! It will be your turn soon!

Hi Pam! I can completely relate to this. 37, 1 miscarriage and potentially a chemical.I have been so sad I completely get the need to take a break.I hope it's all going well for you by now 🥰🌈

wow I posted this 6 months ago and a lot has happened. I’m 39 now, had a chemical in February and now I’m pregnant again - 5w2d. Holding for this baby to stick.
Sorry about your losses 🥹

Oh Pam! I'm sorry you got more heartbreak but also so pleased to hear about the current pregnancy. Ttc really does test one's resilience 🥹💖🌈

thank you. Yes it does. It’s not easy.

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?

32 weeks

32 week growth scan and clinic appointment. Did anything unusual happen? Ive heard a few people saying 32 weeks was when they had a induction date

Groin pain?

So I’m 34 weeks with my second and for a couple days now I’ve had terrible groin pain so bad that sometimes I can’t even walk or shift a certain way or I feel like the baby is just gonna rip out of my groin… I definitely was uncomfortable towards the end with my last pregnancy but this is just absolutely awful. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or anything that helps?? It’s making it so hard to still care for a toddler when I can barely move without pain..
