Coffee lounge and bar for MI5 interviewees, little friends and other CM studiers post MC – Part II

Ooh, I have been taking the Sanatogen folic things with Omega 3 (3 for 2 in Tesco) and haven't had a poo for days! Wish I'd know about them for the Leeds festival...
The Omega 3 fish capsules keep sticking in my throat, where they slowly desolve and have me hiccuping fish all day.
The trials and tribulations eh....

Harassed, I do love you, your crusade against aspartame is becoming legendary across mn I keep reaching for the sweetners at work and then recoil in horror, honestly.
Oooh, cat talk! The two older have kitekat tinned 'meat' with jelly, and whatever biscuits are on offer, normally whiskers or them in that yellow box. The kittens have whiskas pouches with jelly or gravy, and Iambs biscuits whilst I try to build them up. They're more interested in the adult food anyway, and whatever we're having for dinner, little cider drinkers. What smells, the bottom area or breath? If fur or arse, lazy moggie needs to groom more, have you tried licking her in encouragement? If breath, perhaps she has issues with her teeth, get saving and take her to the vets for a check-up and polish.

I need tea in the morning, otherwise I'm a total bitch, actually it's the caffeine probably! I have totally cut out aspartame though.... vile stuff, have a google.

I know I keep bleating on about it, but have a look at kinesiology. I'd agree your symptoms sound hormonal too. Honestly since I started with her my hormones and af have been the most stable ever, and my af went back to my regular 28 days after erpc then I got bfp the following month. Ok, I mc'd again, but it's a good start! I'm cd 24 now and have lots of af (or early preg) symptoms, so that sounds positive too. I'd see af next week as positive.

I've never had weird dreams leading up to af...... hence me freaking out a tad.

Sparkly what are feeding your cats?? My cat blooming stinks!! And not of sugarpuffs .

me too harrassed, have cut right back on caffine, drink earl grey now as my last pg put me off tea!! So earl grey only but very limited amounts, ive tried giving up compleatly but i got the worst headaches..
Not sure about the dream thing,think mine are hormone related!!
my hormones are still all over the place since my mc in sept, perids abit erratic, increased weight, headaches, spots, hair thining?? Swear there all connected to my hormones....

Wombat are you taking multi vits, Pregnacare type stuff?? If so it's probably that. Pregnacare also made my ms with dd even worse. Stopped taking them and the ms and constipation subsided...... Took the Sanatogen ones with Dec 10 bfp, and same sodding thing. Obviously mc'd, so won't be taking anything in future! Only Folic acid.

Pecka Ouch!! That sounds very painful. I haven't managed to cut out caffeine, but I only drink tea so prob not as bad as if I was a coffee drinker!

I once "you know what"'d from a dream whilst preg!!!! Can't remember what the dream was about, was too busy worrying if dh had noticed

mmmmm breakfast sounds ymmy ladies, thanks....
Worm, love love your kitchin, im mid-luring my dh to get an new one, ours is now 8 years old and looking very dated!!! But mid landscaping the back garden so there no hope this year!!
Wombat, harrassed sparkly my dreams are wild at the moment, but im putting it down to pre-af build up!! Af due next week so makes sense, dont think this month is the month (again)
sorry your feeling abit fragile harrassed, chin up and enjoy lots of wine and chocolate this weekend! Because we can!!!
I went to docs yest as got an ear infection and a skin flare up! But because were trying for a baby would prescribe my normal steriod based cream for my skin and nothing for my ear, just paracetamol!!! Aaaaaaarrrrhhhhhh so frustrating this whole ttc lark!!! He told me to take my pre-nat vitamins, no caffine, alcohol... Like i didnt know already dddderrrrrrr....

Sparkly everyone's different lovely, I know it's hard! My friend who's due at the same I would have been with the first one had no symptoms when I did, and she's just fine and 20-ish weeks now. Also Collie on the updiffed thread, we were due at same time with my 2nd one, she was very worried as she had no symptoms but now has awful ms!

Cd28 on Tuesday, so due around then (I'm sure Wombat knows haha). Normal cycle is 28-32 days but who knows this month! I have one cheapie test so will do that on Monday as seeing the kinesiologist. Had a good cry on dh's shoulder this morning....sodding hormones!

Harassed, cross-posted. Before Wombat asks, when is af due? Symptoms sound interesting, I hesitate to say promising as the body can play tricks. I dreamt I was a lesbian the other night by the way, very satisfying

Worm, you made me giggle. The indignation! You know we're all picturing you with a range rover, a barbour and hunter wellies now. Very To The Manor Born. I love your kitchen, let's see some more of your house, and don't miss out the grounds will you!
Manamana, I love Masterchef too! DH hates Jackie with a passion, I thought she'd have been out when she bombed in the veggie episode but no. The pressure is really taking it's toll on her skin . None of them are that impressive are they, Tim to win as he's a bit bonkers. Are you watching Great British Menu? Love that too, so comforting. When I was off work with my mc I just watched back to back Grand Designs, now the tinkly B&Q commercial before all the house programmes is strangely nurturing
Will book scan today. Bit worried about no sypmtoms apart from a dull ache below (normal, those with little ones?). Thought I'd be queasy with sore nips. Nowt. Wombat, any symptoms? I do feel a bit fatter but that's probably the donuts

Worm mmm love croissants, but I'll have butter and rhubarb jam on mine please . Enjoy your bowling!

Wombat loving your weird dreams!! Hormones are wonderful things , mine start weird and by the time dd was due I daren't shut my eyes for all the weird, freaky, bloody dreams!!!! My dh on the other hand has weird dreams all time.....

We're renting, unfortunately. We sold up 3 years ago just before property crashed. For two reasons: firstly was to safeguard our money (tucked away safely!) and secondly was because we were worried about dh's work as was self employed. It actually turns out we would have been ok, but it's been the right thing for us I think. So we've decided to rent again for a few more years at least. Hopefully have another baby and get that to school-ish age then buy. That's the plan anyway.....my body permitting!

Anyway, I'm slightly freaking out here as I've felt sick the last two mornings and been having weird dreams. But, I've had this before and af has arrived, or it could just be stress right? Weird, but I hope af does arrive as I'm not sure I could cope with a bfp at the moment. Well I could cope with the bfp, but what if I mc again?! I flipping hate this ttc after mc craaaap...

Ahhh it's the weekend for our wombat so she will be laying in........... breakfast is now served Girls......... I'm in the mood for croissants and nutella, but will put out all the fancy stuff that you lot like too
What is misbehavin Mums? I think I need to search out? or maybe it sounds like it would Pee me off...
We are all off bowling today, which will be fun! Have a good weekend Girls.

Thing is, they won't realise what they've got until they're in our shoes.

Stupid cows sums it up !!

What on earth? Sounds hideous!

harrassed, im watching it too, stupid cows!!!! It makes me so angry that they cant put there baby first.... Terrible.

I don't have an aga! Christ we would all have starved haha..... have a range cooker, one of those wide ones.

House was awful! Actually it wasn't a house, it was a rabbit hutch, there wasn't room to swing my small kitten. Mildew everywhere!! Which apparently will be fixed when they put in new insulation and get a new boiler it . It was everywhere...... gross! And apparently the landlord is a nightmare to get anything done. So it's a big fat no!

Mana the thought of you hiding in a meeting room made me , wish we had one like that!!!

Sparkly stats are good aren't they?! I just need to get that flaming far.......

I've just put misbehaving mums on so I can shout at the stupid flaming bints!!!

I hope you're feeling a bit better tonight manamana (wow - that's tricky to type!).

Loving your kitchen photos worm. At first I thought you had TWO kitchens ... then read your comment. D'oh!

Any donuts left? Although I really shouldn't. I'm trying to shed a few pounds. I'm terrible for gaining pounds in early pregnancy which is always very disappointing when I mc.

Sparkly - I think it's perfectly normal to want an early scan and I think the consensus on here shows that. It's not for me now although in my first 2 pregnancies I would have bitten the midwifes hand off for one. I can't understand why my views have changed so much, but when I went to see the midwife this week she was talking about the possibility of an early scan next time round and it filled me with dread.

Thanks sparkly, yes v tense - not good is it. But, I have 2 episodes of master chef saved up for tonight so a bit of shouting at Jackie should sort me out! Thanks for the hug and half doughnut, it's good to share ;-) x

I have done it, click on my name to see my Aga-less kitchen!!
Sparkly I think you should have a scan too! The whole being pregnant is a real worry and to be honest even once you have a healthy child you will still never stop fretting about it!!
Hi manamamma good to see you here again, and skiving off work to sleep and mumsnet!
Hope the veiwing goes well harassed have you got to sell your current home? as that is a nightmare!
I am also really excited about the royal wedding, I found myself feeling bad for the bride as she won't get to do all the fun planning that goes along with a wedding as it will all be done for them.... I wish we were having a street party, I suppose it is probably too late to organise now..... I could do a garden party though ...........

Oiii!! Why is an aga my territory???? I do not have an Aga and will post a picture to prove it!!! I am going to suss it out...............

Righto, three ladies voting for the scan so that's £30 apiece, so kind
Manamana, I'm picturing you furtively hunched in a darkened room, frantically typing. You sound very tense, I hope a little lie down works for you. Can I whizz a hug and half a donut your way?
Nkay, I'm going to do it. Harassed, love the stats. I'll try and book in for 9 weeks, so if it's good news I'm more than 98% there, if not then I've saved a month of 'mentalling'.
Pecka, all of my chins are up!

Harassed, an aga? Thought that was more Worm's territory!
No news from Yellow, perhaps she is having problems with her submersible spy car....

Hi all. Am hiding in a meeting room at work, sooooooooooo tired I booked one without windows so could have a little lie-down and am mnetting on my phone :-)
No good advice from me I'm afraid re early scans. I ended up having 3 scans before my 13 week one and although there were a couple of minutes of relief when we saw the hb I couldn't get excited and would literally feel back to square one as soon as we'd left the room so I am glad I didn't have to pay for any of them. Was still an absolute wreck in waiting room before 13 week scan and am now building up to 20 week one (2 weeks and counting....) I don't expect I'll be able to relax until I can feel it moving properly. But I think everyone gets through pg post mc their own way.
Sorry, can't get back to previous page but shocked at the therapist who suggested trapped nerves might be to blame for mc, not sure what I would have said to that.
Anyway, going to try and close my eyes again for a bit, take care all x

Helloooo,

Sparkly I'd have an early scan, definitely. In fact I had enquired about one last month, but mc'd first. I think like Wombat, it's about self-defence. Although I've been very upset, it was def "easier" to mc early and not have my hopes way up like the first one.

I found this from the Miscarriage Association: If the scan picks up a heartbeat and the baby appears to be the right size according to your dates, this can be very reassuring. Research has shown that if you see a heartbeat at 6 weeks of pregnancy, the chances of the pregnancy continuing are 78%. A heartbeat at 8 weeks increases the chance of a continuing pregnancy to 98% and at 10 weeks to 99.4%. So things could still go wrong, but as long as there is a heartbeat, the risk of miscarriage decreases as the weeks go by.

Wombat oooh looking forward to hearing from you on Sunday!

Worm well done on another 5k.

I am definitely too old for Jack Wills....am 40 .

We're viewing a house tonight. It's not as big as ours downstairs, as we have a single storey extension where we are now, but I'm hoping the space will be better utilised. At the moment we have a tiny sitting room, huge but badly laid out kitchen with next to no workspace and a stupidly big range cooker, and also a lovely sized dining room.

sparkly, i would also pay for a reassurance scan too....
Our baby died at 8 weeks and the first i knew about it was at just over 12 weeks when i started to bleed but had no pains ect, dont want to frighten you, weve all been through the mill on this thread so i think we can all put ourselfs in your place right now.
Chin up, im sure all will be good x
