Well I think after all our chatting its about time we had a new thread, as the previous one was very lucky for us, lets hope this one remains just as lucky.

Remember ladies - Our time will come, but our bodies have to be ready, and we are all here to support each other.

For those new people please feel free to check out our Stats thread, to see some info about us and leave you details if you want to.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

Oh Mumswish - Please dont think like that! It reallyis best that you dont look up things like that! I truly believe that we dont do anything to cause M/C's (unless there is a medical factor against us) and it was the wrong time for your body to carry a baby! i know it sounds a cliche but when it's the right time for you bosy to carry then you will!

Come on put a smile on that face! x

lottielou lol at thought of frantic search taking place
mumswish cant offer much advice but i dont think the pill made you m/c all its says on the instruction leaflet i managed to dig out is that if you should suspect pregancy, to stop taking(for obvious reasons) but that it shouldnt affect the rest of the pg hope that helps

mumswish · 27/09/2005 16:02

So If I stop taking my pill and try within the next month does that mean I've got more of a chance of a mc?

On a nother note

Whats TMI?

Lottielou · 27/09/2005 16:00

CH - Well if you had your smear y'day then the chances are that you were just disturbed a little up there! Dont worry bout the TMI, a TMI question comming up... What is the pinky discharge like? How much is there, is it a lot? I dont think i's personally worry too much hun. If it gets any worse tho then i would seek medical advice!

Coathanger · 27/09/2005 16:00

Mumswish - hunni, don't beat yourself up like this. I'm sure what you did made no difference. I know its hard, and I still think about what I could have done differently to stop my MC. But really, there is nothing you could have done. Please don't be hard on yourself, sweetie. This might sound a bit harsh, but what is done is done. I don't mean that in a dismissive way, but you can't dwell on what could or would have happened, does that make sense?

mumswish · 27/09/2005 15:57

ok really sh**ng it now, Never knew this

Contraception

If your pregnancy is planned and you're on the pill, it's best to wait three months after stopping before trying to conceive. This will reduce the risk of miscarriage. Also keep a record of your menstrual periods so your due date can be calculated more accurately after conception.

Is this why I mced? I was still taking my pill for a month before I realised Iwas pg

Coathanger · 27/09/2005 15:54

Okay, seeing as we are on the subject of bleeding (bleugh!) may I ask you for your opinions on this...?

Had my smear done yesterday (double bleugh!) and the nurse told me I had blood around my cervix. She asked me if I bleed at odd times in the month and I said no but explained about MC (told you this already, I know). I hadn't noticed any blood so assumed it was a tiny bleed confined to aroung my cervix. Woke up this morning, went to the loo (TMI I know!) and noticed some pinky coloured discharge (YUK! I know but bare with me!). I'm a bit worried as my cycles has always been 28 days and I'm on CD 20/21. So, what do ya think? Should I be worried?

Lottielou · 27/09/2005 15:53

You change the subject as much as you like Carly! Have tried those Vimto ones and have to say i wasn't overly keen on them! Nothing can beat chocolate (speaking of whcih, i cud really do with some right now)!! but hey glad u like them!
Lottie frantically running round her office searching for choccie now!

carly82 · 27/09/2005 15:51

mumswish · 27/09/2005 15:46

A man walks into a bar with a newt on his shoulder. The barman looks at the creature and asks the man what he calls it.
"Tiny" replies the man.
"Why's that?" asks the bartender.
"Because he's my newt!"

Lottielou · 27/09/2005 15:46

i know CH, missed ya hun! How u doing? {{{hug}}}

Coathanger · 27/09/2005 15:44

Lottie! Great to talk to you too, hun! Haven't had one of our ma-ha-had chats for a while!

Lottielou · 27/09/2005 15:43

Then i wud say that it cud be that your body is having a clear out after your m/c. If it were me, then i would wait until i stopped bleeding. But everyone is different! Have you been to the docs about it? Just to make sure that everything is ok? Dont want to worry you at all but i'm just checking huni!
Have you tried using and Ov test to see if you are most fertile now? Any other signs of Ov'ing?

(LOL at 'normal' ha ha)

THE SINGING BULLFROG

A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender, "If I show you a really good trick, will you give me a free drink?" The bartender considers it, and then agrees. The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out a tiny rat. He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out a tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues.

After the man finished his drink, he asked the bartender, "If I show you an even better trick, will you give me free drinks for the rest of the evening?" The bartender agrees, thinking that no trick could possibly be better than the first. The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out a tiny rat. He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out a tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues. The man reaches into another pocket and pulls out a small bullfrog, which begins to sing along with the rat's music.

While the man is enjoying his free drinks, a stranger confronts him and offers him £100,000 for the bullfrog. "Sorry," the man replies, "he's not for sale." The stranger increases the offer to £250,000 cash up front. "No," he insists, "he's not for sale." The stranger again increases the offer, this time to £500,000 cash. The man finally agrees, and turns the frog over to the stranger in exchange for the money.

"Are you insane?" the bartender demanded. "That frog could have been worth millions to you, and you let him go for a mere £500,000!"

"Don't worry about it." the man answered. "The frog was really nothing special. You see, the rat's a ventriloquist."

Mumswish - I like my "spa", but as I said to Lottie a while ago I might ask for an upgrade to a room with a window and a door with a handle on the inside.

Coathanger · 27/09/2005 15:41

WOW!! I only went to pick boys up from school and you've gone talk mad!!
