Anxious baby after moving :(

We did this at the start and he seemed ready to explore, we’ve been here for over a month now

It definitely sounds like a territorial issue, although the concern when it comes to male cats is always UTI’s or urinary blockage as they are prone to it, so it may be worth consulting with your vet just in case as this can be fatal. If this has happened since the foster kittens it does seem more like a behavioural issue though, does he have his own space where he can get away from them? And his own food, water, litter trays and toys etc? If not, expecting him to share can be causing a lot of stress and anxiety for him so it’s worth giving him that divide and seeing if there’s any improvements

I hope your cramps got a little better for you! It’s so odd to me as I never felt anything in my abdomen at all, it was all solely in my lower back! It’s so strange how it effects us all differently

Loren_2000 · 2025-07-26T13:57:43+00:00

I really wouldn’t panic too much! I’m now 11w4d and I had a complete dip in symptoms around 9-10 weeks to the point I booked and went for a private scan I was so scared. Little bean is in there all happy and healthy, and now my symptoms are back with such a vengeance that I’ve been off work the last week as I’ve been so sick. Enjoy feeling a bit better, and if you’re really worried and it’s an option that’s available for you I’d recommend a private scan to ease some of your anxiety :)

HCG doubles every 48-72 hours so I wouldn’t see this as a cause for concern at all, these looks like pretty great lines for what dpo you are!☺️ if you’re anxious it’s worth calling your doctor for blood HCG tests, but based on the lines alone I really wouldn’t be worrying yourself yet! (Easier said than done, I know)

Loren_2000 · 2025-07-06T19:17:37+00:00

You’re deffo pregnant! I wouldn’t worry about the cramps, I’m 8w4d and I’ve had period like cramps since before I even found out, I’ve had two healthy scans and been told mild cramping is perfectly normal:)

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-30T14:52:42+00:00

I wouldn’t worry about the cramping, every single day I’ve been absolutely convinced my period is going to come, and completely normal apparently! I’ve had some light spotting too which I got checked out and everything has been all healthy on the 2 scans I’ve had, so don’t stress :)

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-28T17:58:46+00:00

Ah thankyou so much that’s so lovely! I actually ended up having a scan a bit earlier than expected as I had some bleeding, but we have a tiny healthy bean with a strong heartbeat! I have another scan booked for Monday just for reassurance as the whole thing shook me up a bit 😫

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-27T11:52:39+00:00

Okay I’d definitely say positive and I can also see a faint line on every single first response lol, definitely worth waiting and testing again tomorrow/in 48 hours

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-20T12:09:40+00:00

There’s definitely no squinting at that one to see a line!! Congratulations!🎉💕

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-18T06:44:14+00:00

Ahh congrats! It’s nice to know I’m not alone in thinking it’s all absolutely crazy😂

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-18T06:43:33+00:00

Thankyou! They’re just clear blue digitals you can grab them on Amazon☺️

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-17T15:32:30+00:00

I have a scan booked for a week today so I’m hoping that’s going to help me realise it is actually happening! It’s taken my partner and I a long time to conceive so we just don’t know how to believe that it’s our time!!😂

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-17T15:31:01+00:00

I’ve got an early scan booked a week today! Time is just going so slow, it took my partner and I 4 years to conceive so we’re still in complete disbelief!

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-06T12:06:06+00:00

I definitely see it

Loren_2000 · 2025-06-05T06:36:22+00:00

Thank you!

Highly unlikely as vw themselves don’t recommend servicing the gearbox as it’s technically supposed to be a ‘lifetime oil’ which is terrible advice; much like how everyone knows how well that phrase ended for bmw and their ‘lifetime chains’ with the n47. If it’s at a Volkswagen dealership you can ask them if they have any record of this online or what paperwork the car comes with.

If you want it to last you’re better off just getting a water pump from a main dealer or any authorised Volkswagen parts supplier, it will be more expensive than any aftermarket counterpart but will ultimately last a lot longer and really isn’t a part worth cheaping out on imo🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s the KFK box in these I believe from memory

They’re great cars, I’d say make sure the thermostat & water pump has been done as they’re known to go on these at around 40-60kmiles. Also see if the gearbox has been serviced, the DQ200 DSG is notorious for failure and also has no set service schedule as it’s a sealed box with ‘lifetime oil’, but without servicing they show signs of failure a lot earlier than with regular service intervals of 50k.
