Had an mc and need some wine, chocolate and somewhere to moan and cry? This is the place to be! We chat a LOT so it can be hard to keep up, but everyone on here is great and will hold your hand until you get your BFP.

Arse crackers-dildo cam sees fluid by one of my tubes. He says it might be nothing eg. Maybe a blood vessel or could be a thing called hydrosalpinx which is where there is fluid from a previous infection. He particularly thinks this could be the case because i had emergency surgery to remove my appendix a couple of years ago :( A quick look at dr google shows that not only would this cag a tube, it has been speculated that it could cause lower conception success rates due to fluid messing with the embryo. They say next step is to inject my womb with contrast dye and X-ray it to see exactly what's going on. I'm a bit worried about that tho because it's not a good part of your body to be x-rayed and also need to talk through what they might find and what the next steps would be. If it's just something that halves my chances of sperm meeting egg, I'm not bothered and would only contemplate surgery etc if it could cause ectopic or recurrent miscarriage. So no point in being zapped if I'd never follow up on results anyway. So have decided to phone consultant in new year and talk it through. In good news, ovaries look ok and womb thickness is good.

owlbooty · 30/12/2010 11:34

Also...someone further up asked what dildocam was (Hadrian?) Dildocam is exactly what it says on the tin :) Ultrasound from the inside used if they're having trouble seeing what's going on with the external one, not nearly as dreadful as it sounds, honest.

owlbooty · 30/12/2010 11:30

RudolfThePinkNosedReindeer · 30/12/2010 11:13

Oops not sure why phone posted twice! wombo and nix great news

RudolfThePinkNosedReindeer · 30/12/2010 11:10

Hi to dropdead and Zara sorry for your losses Sad

hiding here's hoping for you!! Desire to eat offal must mean something exciting is happening, surely??!

wombat my chrimbo prezzie to myself this year is a monitoring cycle at a private clinic and as today is cd10, apparently that means dildo cam.... Not sure if they do more bloods today as well, I know I've got to have bloods taken after I ovulate (which means I'm going to have to chill out a lot more this cycle!!!)

mamap it's 14th Jan, thanks for asking lovely. Not sure I'm going to do anything to mark it, as I feel like if I'm going to have a baby, it'll be the same one that comes back iyswim - I know that sounds weird tho!!

orestyemerrywombat · 30/12/2010 11:08

x-posted nix! Congratulations on the little beating bean! Such good news!!

Love the new name dachs. I'm keeping everything crossed for this cycle for you xxx

Argh!! I'm a wreck! So terrified!

DachshundsWantPuppies · 30/12/2010 10:59

WOMBO that is just fab news lovely xxxxx 1/2 litre of pineapple juice and get out those brazil nuts!!!!!

Was it my imagination or did snowysunchild have a faint line too?!?!

orestyemerrywombat · 30/12/2010 10:48

OMG OMG OMG! Realised after I posted that I remembered someone else having a crazy chart on their lucky month so I poas and there's a v v v faint line!! OMG!

Period's not due for 5 days so anything could happen. I'm terrified!

Love my DH's reaction though: 'that's so exciting! But I thought your temps went down yesterday? I hope it sticks! Have you had your pineapple juice this morning?'

think I've been mentalling at him too much?! Hmm

OMFG I'm so scared! And excited too. Will you lovely ladies hold my hand in case it all goes wrong again or has the 'bad' genes??

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 30/12/2010 10:25

Ladies, its me!

OMFG i am in shock....good shock though :) :)

We have a tiny bean with a little fluttering heartbeat Grin I cant quite believe it...but its definately in there!

I honestly thought i was going to be posting bad news when i woke up this morning nausea free...... but thank god there is something in there Grin Its a very long way still to go, but today its all good. Measuring 2cms and 8 1/2 weeks EDD 7th Aug (day after my birthday, and the same weekend my MC was confirmed!)

Thankyou for all your thoughts today, obviously worked :)

I am really sorry to see so many newbies on here...especially at such a festive supposedly happy time of year.... so sorry for your losses all but these ladies are just the best xxx and will make you fel at home for what i hope is a very short stay xx

hadrian · 30/12/2010 10:23

Morning all. Quick check - what exactly is a dildo cam? All this terminology is new to me. Am still pretending I understand all the acronyms...

Hello to zam and fred - sorry to hear what you're going through. 10th time round is so tough fred. I wonder whether it is harder for those of us ttc no. 1 - there's something really scary about the thought that this might never happen for me but at the same time I think MC is just awful whatever your circumstances.

GOOD LUCK NIX! Lots of positive vibes coming your way.

DachshingThroTheSnow · 30/12/2010 10:03

pretty, nix and pink hope everything goes well today.

sorry it's not looking like your month wombat hopefully that will make you feel a little better

hksb glad to hear you managed to cope with seeing the newborn. i'm sure it will happen for you soon.

mamap glad to hear you got spoiled!

owlbooty · 30/12/2010 09:59

Hiding overwhelming desire to eat offal ? You're either up the duff or you've gone completely barking mad Grin

Hope all goes well today Nix and Pink - nothing like a bit of dildocam action to really brighten up your day, eh?

PV excellent news on the drucks and consultant visit!

Welcome to the lovely new people Fred and Zam - so sorry you've had to join us here and it sounds like you've both really been through the mill - hopefully 2011 will be much kinder to you.

hadrian glad you got the all clear on the scan - it's a crap feeling having a scan to see nothing but I do remember being v.relieved about it afterwards. Onwards & upwards :)

HongKongSantaBaby · 30/12/2010 09:53

Hello everyone and especially hello to all the new people. Sorry you find yourselves here, I hope you will get the support you need and won't have to linger here too long before you get your BFPs.

Been off to visit a friend's newborn today, absolutely gorgeous but bitter-sweet for me as I should have been having my no.2 in a few weeks. Another 2 of my antenatal group friends are due their no.2s in the next couple of weeks too. Oh well, onwards and upwards, maybe some baby luck will have rubbed off on me!

Dachs sending out good luck vibes your way, you deserve it after everything you've been through. I personally think it must be so much harder for those ttc no.1 without success than for those of us ttc no.2 or more and have so much respect for those of you in this boat for staying so strong and finding time to share some support with others on here too.

Nix fingers x'd for you today at the epu.

Oh, my back story for anyone that's interested. DD aged 22 months. This time round trying 13 months so far, pregnant after 6 months but miscarried 7 weeks. I'm 35 so the clock is ticking.
