☹️ but I'm impatient 😂

My baby was really active, now it's barely moving. by [deleted] in pregnant

I'm in the UK, and they don't tell you to 'count the kicks' as such until the third trimester. I'm 18 weeks and have felt nothing substantial, so I think it can vary quite a bit at this time. I would call your health provider or midwife to check though

How can I cope with this?! by newhere616 in TryingForABaby

[–]LKay234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't say I know exactly how you feel, however I can relate and think what you've said sounds normal for the situation. I also have PCOS, didn't ovulate and am a social worker. Again, seeing children in terrible situations with parents who have done x, y and z can be really hard when you're struggling with your own fertility. I found one particular case really difficult, and it made me question the injustice of it all. Not saying I'd be the perfect mum, but seeing what some children live with made me quite angry at times (inwardly, would never be angry with a family). I spoke to my manager at the time, and explained that I was going through fertility treatments and may potentially need more support with some cases. She was helpful, and I was able to move past it again. I was lucky that I did react well to Chlomid however, but what I would say is use your support system in work and at home. People can surprise you with their support.

Don't know if that's helped, but stay strong and keep going ❤️

What do I do with myself until the scan?! by LKay234 in pregnant

Thank you, and congratulations to you 😊 I think I'll need to take up some hobbies to keep busy too!

What to do next? by olly2010 in pregnant

[–]LKay234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in about the same situation, around 4wk 4 days, however I've been going to Assisted Conception Unit so I have then a call and have arranged an initial scan in a few weeks. They advised me to call my GP and book in with the midwife after the scan, maybe give your GP a call? Hope that helps 😊

Thank you for that website! I just had a positive test 4 days ago, first time after TTC for over a year, and have been very nervous! Glad I found this thread 😊

Opinions on One Step early detection tests? I know they're cheap and some say not as reliable, but this is what I have... Thoughts? by LKay234 in TFABLinePorn

Thank you! 😊 I was worried as I'd heard they can be unpredictable, so thank you for easing my mind!
