hi to everyone else XXXX

Diege OMG i m so keeping my fingers crossed its old blood,cervical erosion,timed when you should get your period.All the luck in the world tomorrow.Thinking of you XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

OMG panashe how awful. What a terrible shock that must have been. Thinking of you - so sad :(

Hello everyone, haven't caught up on thread yet but will do over next day or two.

My Dad was knocked off his bicycle by van and died.

Am back now, love to all xx

ps Is that a helicopter in your garden?

Diege, is this around when your period would have been due? 8 weeks sounds like it. It could be hormones and stuff. Ive crossed everything for you. Especially my legs. I, too, have pelvic floor 'issues'

I know that it could go either way diege but this thread looks quite positive and might just bolster you up for a few hours. XXX

ahh bless you diege - fancy asking after me when you obviously have loads on your mind. Yeah i will test in a few days if still no spotting and still tingly boobs. It might have been too early before. BUT, i will be on that helecopter with jolls whatever happens hang in there kid. As jolls says - no cramps is a good sign. But i remember bleeding in both my last pregnancies and I found it easier to think the worst that to keep thinking all was ok - so i do understand your logic.

did laugh at the image of you having a wad of toilet roll on your bits cos you are wretching so hard - blimey there is no dignity in pregnancy is there, honey.

Oh diege big hugs for you, I so so hope you are wrong. I have everything crossed for you. xx

Thanks jolls, I will keep my eye on the window for the helicopter tomorrow morning. The only way I can really manage is by thinking the worst I think. I've cancelled all my classes tomorrow anyway, and have told my line manager that I won't be in, so won't have to deal with all that first thing which is a help.
Still crossing my fingers for you Hippy! Will you leave it a few days before testing again?
Tina, sorry about af

ok
of course any bleeding/unusual CM is worrying BUT what you describe is not much
no cramps is good
try and stay positive until scan tomorrow
I'm arranging transfer to the helicopter as I type... hippster and I will be there for you xx

8 weeks tomorrow. The details...I started by my customary morning retching over the tilet bowl, holding wad of toilet paper against fanjo (as you do, with a pelvic floor like mine). After I'd stopped being sick and looked at wad, paper was covered in mucously pink/light red blood. Have since had pinkish bleeding after I've had a wee. I've put a pad on as had to honour a hospital appointment I had aranged to go with a friend to this morning, and have about a 10 pence piece worth of spotting on that when I looked just now. I also noticed some 'orangish' cm late last night, which was exactly how my mmc started (never had that before or since, well since if you count now).

hugs to diege hope you're wrong :-(

sweetheart - it is so shit and of course you'll worry. We would all be the same. If it's someone else you think positive for them and if it's yourself you assume the worst. There are LOADS of threads on MN where women had bleeding and still went on to have a healthy baby but of course there are also many where it all went wrong - so try to only read the positive ones. XX

how many weeks are you again diege - is it 8? Lots of blood or a little? Red?

Thanks everyone . I know a scan is the best thing to do but I really feel like burying my head in the sand for this one! I just know I will be sick with worry in the hrs leading up to it, but I suppose I have no choice? I know at one level I am jumping the gun, and would probably think the same if anyone else posted about bleeding but I am already cursing my short LP and thinking I'll stick at 4 dcs. I still feel sick as a dog, sore boobs etc, but tummy is very sore (not crampy, but a little like after an amnio if anyone's had one?). Sorry I waffling now but it does make me feel a little better!

Oh diege I know there is nothing I can say. Really hope that this is just one of those things and that all is still ok in there. Will be thinking of you tomorrow - I too am sending hugs and squeezes.

oh diege, bollocks. Arsicles. Fuck. Sorry to read that. Hope of course you are totally wrong. Massive squeeze for you. xxx

Well, not great news here I'm afraid Started bleeding this morning (while I was being sick [hmm), and thinking back my cm has been getting darker the last few days. I have been able to bring my scan forward a day (so scheduled for 11.30 tomorrow now) but in my heart this is really reminding me of my mmc. Same type of bleeding, colour and frequency-wise. So feeling pretty shocked and numb, but nothing I can do.

curly have visions of you bursting into rooms saying, "stop that!" in order to prevent any sperm being erm.... deposited early! These poor men

I did laught that your MIL has gone and you had a lovely week-end - any connection?

yes lia is well fed that's why she's so fat - ha ha - I'm guessing you meant fed UP.

I am still trying not to think about no AF. i usually spot days before now but am well aware that our bodies do like to trick us.

I don't want to appear pushy - so there is room in the snug helecopter for anyone else who wants to 'virtually' attend the scans - but I get to hold their hands
