The only thing worse than a BFN is a False Positive !!

Am 8dpo and dyinggg to do an early test but I will not as I had a trigger shot this cycle and absolutely MUST wait 14 days (at least) to test as hCG can still be in system from it till then which will result in a false positive.

And I really can’t imagine dealing with a false positive it would just devastate me.

Want the days to go by quicker 😤

Visitors after C-Section

I’ve firmly expressed I don’t want visitors when we’re in the hospital and likely not for a while when home. I want us to be able to adjust but also for me to start to recover, I’ve got a condition that causes seizures and poor wound healing so anticipating it could potentially be difficult at first.

I don’t want to be unfair to people, but I know it’s going to be detrimental mentally for me to have people. I’ve been pushed on specifics on how long and said “we’ll say 2 weeks for now including the hospital and then let people know.” I can tell that my mom is not happy in the slightest and there’s been a few comments.

What do others recommend? Is it better to just grit your teeth and get people over to keep the peace? Is it wrong to want the space?

No bleeding after c section

9 days post op and I’ve not been bleeding at all.. I only bled some clots for the first 24-48 hours but nothing after that. Midwives are advising this is normal, has anyone else experienced no bleeding after c section?

31 weeks movement

My baby moves all the time but is anyone else finding that the movement are more rolls and pushes than actual jabs! I only get jabs and kicks now if I am laying down but during the day I mainly get rolls and pushing. I haven’t been worried that his movements have reduced just different kinds of moving.

Period like pains

I’m 35 weeks tomorrow and having dull period like cramps in my lower belly and slightly in my lower back. Has anyone else had this? I’m wondering if it’s just general pregnancy stretching muscles etc or the start of something.. 😬

Measuring in the 18th Percentile

Just got back from my 28w+6 growth scan 🤍
Baby girl is measuring in the 18th percentile. I can’t help but feel a bit worried. I’ve been noticing my bump seems smaller compared to others at this stage, and now it kind of makes sense.
anyone else having a baby measuring on the smaller side? What are you going to do with your diet?
Trying to stay calm but would really appreciate hearing your experiences 💕
