I just wanted to say that there are many reasons why women might choose to have an elective c section... And regardless the reason factoring to me not wanting to experience a vaginal birth - that should be Ok and it shouldn't be looked down on ;) I am the same as any other mother.
Catherine - I hope I haven't offended, just wasn't sure if there was a problem and they have given you the option. Noway in the world would I put judgement on you, as if I become pg again, I know I could not go thru what I had been thru only to end up with a c/s anyway. I would be making sure they do another c/s on me.
Catherine, I agree. We have a few friends who chose the elective c-section. I think each person should make their own personal choice. Wishing you all the best ;)
Hi Csab
Mega apologies for the delay getting back to you. I bought some 10miu HPT tests from a site called babymad.com. I'm not sure whether the send abroad as I'm in the UK and then followed it up with First Response. I'm sure if you google it you'll find something closer to home. They were well cheap too £5 for 10.
Let us know how you get on.
(tons of baby dust)
Ellana - Thanks for that. I will let you know how everything turns out. Congrats again on your pg hun.
Csab - when are you due for AF?? Good luck with testing, i really hope you are pregnant!! :goodluck:
pressure is on for thursday csab!!!! haha...lets hope you see 2 lovely lines looking at you when you test!!!you are like me and wait...I hate testing early, only ever done it once and it just did my head it cos it was a neg...so now the rule is too just wait....
Renstar - Thankyou honey. I am due on Thursday for AF. Not sure if I want to test until then. Nervous about getting BFN. I know what you mean about AF making you feel sick, cause I get the same. It would be great if AF and pg symptoms weren't the same. Have you ever been that late before? I think you should test? How nice would that be if you were? I
Csab - first cycle after BCP's I had 47CD, then 31CD, then 30CD then 28CD now this long cycle..... i am not testing.... I will test in a week if still no AF....as by that stage, AF should be arriving.... judging by my cycles i should only be about 28-30CD so yeah, this is very late for me..... judging by the patterns previously.... how lucky would I be if i was pregnant?!?!!? :P
Anyway, i am waiting patiently either way. **Stress is definitely the reason i am late this time I believe **
Probably don't test until 2 or 3 days after your AF is due if you can wait that long so you aren't disappointed....
Good luck hun, thinking of ya!
Renstar - You are such a lovely person. I have to say, you are one patient lady. I would be so happy for you if you tirned out to get a BFP. I would be thrilled. I tell you what, being as patient as you are you deserve a BFP (lol). I cave in to quickly. Normally I get answers around 2-3days after AF are missed, but years ago before they were less sensative, I had to wait a week. I feel tho that AF is well on her way tho. Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate it as well. Hugs
Csab - awww. :hugs: thank you.... I suppose i've learnt to be very patient, i'm 26 and have wanted to be a mummy for a long time now and the right time for us has finally come around so i figure if I can wait this long to be a mummy, then i can wait a little bit more....I'm terribly clucky though, being 26, and waiting to TTC#1, I'm really, really ready. But at the same time, whatever happens will happen. I guess I just accept that some things are out of our control (ie when we conceive)....and I figure if I am patient enough, then it will happen for me :)
I wish you all the very best and hope your symptoms you are experiencing turn into a BFP. And if not, you always have next month..... :P
Keep me up to date!!
HI all - For me I know not to look at stitch pains as an indication of PG. My AF decided to come 2 days early. Normally a spot on 30day cycle. Oh well. Always next cycle. Thanks all and TC.
Awww Csab! Good luck for next month and sending lots of baby dust your way ;)
Thanks Catherine. Enjoy the rest of your Pg hun. It is such a wonderful feeling, when that beautiful baby moves around. It is so special. TC. Hugs.
I know Csab - i'm actually loving pregnancy now... probably only since week 26 i have really started enjoying it and feeling great and gorgeous! I've lost the big bash kicks though... now i just get the limbs poking out or rolling across my tummy. I said before i don't think i will miss being UTD, but now i'm loving it so much - i think i might :redface: Rochelle is just the best gift we ever could have been given - and my is she going to be a spoilt little princess ;)
Catherine - They really are a gift. I don't blame you for spoiling her. I don't know where I would be without my kids. Once you hold your baby in your arms for the first time, I tell you there is nothing else like it. The smell of a newborn as well, is just ohhh so nice. It is amazing on how quickly your life changes. Even now it amazes me that my kids came from me. Hugs honey, you are going to have the most precious of gifts in your arms very soon and you will see what I mean. TC
