The 6th form post mc ttc and pregnancy common room Part 2

Izzy I'm glad your scan went well. Nice to hear some good news too. I think telling your DCs is a good idea.

I haven't been able to do much this afternoon since reading Dach's news. I've just been staring into space, ocassionally refreshing the broswer and praying for Dachs, Mr Dachs and the pups. I can't even begin to imagine how they must be feeling, terrified to move a muscle and willing the babies to hang on in there.

Knitter I've been thinking of you too and wondering how you were feeling. I'm sorry you were alone yesterday. We're always here on days like that if you need us, don't forget.

Mouse Digi Jolls I'm sorry you have the two year mark approaching. It's horrible feeling another 'milestone' looming like a dark cloud in the distance. The whole ttc game just feels relentless at times. I honestly thought that if I didn't get a bfp this cycle then I would have to take a month or so off. I'd had enough of 'doing the right thing', not drinking, guzzling all manner of vitamins each day, trying to work out the 'best timing' etc etc. There was absolutely no fun in it. And the 2ww was unbearable. I was really grumpy and annoyed with myself that ttc seemed to be taking up my every thought. I really hope it's not much longer for all of you.

Mouse things are sounding positive with the opks. I'm not sure whether to will on af or not for you? Will you ttc this month?. I seem to remember you were going to wait for one cycle.

Jolls I braved the list. I'm really sorry you didn't stay there with me though and I feel quite sensitive to the fact that we got our bfps around the same time and you are no longer with me. I had a cp in March and one of the few positives I drew from it was that hopefully it gave my fertility a little boost for the following months. In a weird way it was also quite reassuring to know that part of the process was working. I have everything crossed that you will be back on the list again soon.

Izzy Congrats on the scan, lovely. So happy for you. And well done on reaching 12 weeks. I'm glad you've told the dc and things are starting to feel more real x

I've been having mild nausea in the evenings and I'm eating like a horse. Some days I have eaten two lunches and two dinners The clinic are taking my bloods every other day which, tbh, is quite stressful and I crashed the car on the way back this morning - straight into the back of another, who then shunted the car in front of him too. Thankfully there wasn't a mark on any of them. My HCG is doubling nicely and progesterone is still quite high despite a dip yesterday which caused 24 hours of panic. It's just one day at a time at present until I can get a scan (probs at least another week away)

Waves to all those I haven't name-checked

Izz I'm so pleased your scan went well :)

Izzy glad your NT scan went well - and I hope your other DC were super-excited for you... definitely the right time to tell them... the odds of anything going wrong from here on in are so slight...

Still got my fingers crossed for dachs...

Just popping in to see if izzy had any scan news. So glad it went well and yay for telling dc, scary as it is its def the right thing. And making it real is a good thing

Knitter nice to hear from you i was only thinking about you last week and wondering how you were doing. Very that it was a month yesterday since your termination, and even sadder as your dh was away. I am glad you seem to be doing 'ok' and i hope AF comes soon. I just wanted to add that i am so sorry about what you had to go through, but that i really do admire the strength and dignity you had throughout it, you are an inspriation - i know that might sounds cheesy but i mean it.

mouse i lurk occassionally and have been reading about your horrid boss. What an utter cow. I am sorry sorry you have all that stress. Have you decided what you'll do about your extra managerial responsibilities? If you want to keep them, you should fight her to the end, you have the law on your side. Very [angry} for you.

Hello all

I think everyone's understandably preoccupied with the Freakout room - such a scary and sad news; I hope dachs knows we're all thinking of her and praying that she gets that much-deserved miracle

jolls and digi sorry you're feeling low - it is so disheartening to watch the time go by. I'm hoping you both get your sticky bfps soon x

yrmotb how are you doing?

mummya I hope ds is settling in and finding nursery a bit easier. How's the work going? Are you managing to fit everything in?

freezing and wiggle I hope you're ok - any symptoms yet?

knitter good to see you, re month since the termination. I hope you're ok. Hopefully the referral won't take too long to come through; I know what you mean about needing to feel like you're doing something and I think you're right to chase it.

mouse I'm glad the return to work went ok and your boss is behaving. Also yay! for signs of cycle normality and hopefully imminent af - are you ttc this cycle or having a break until af shows up?

NT scan this morning here which went well so we're over the next, albeit not the last, hurdle. I've gone back 2 days to 12+0, but that ties in exactly with when I think I ov'd so am ok with that. We have told dcs which I'm not entirely sure was a good idea - it makes it all seem more real. However realistically if it went wrong now they would know something was wrong and would need some sort of explanation. Hopefully it won't happen like that this time though!

Anyway better go - didn't feel it was entirely appropriate to post happy scan news on the other thread right now but hope you lot don't mind me sharing

*you're

Hi ladies

I'm still doing ok... yesterday was one month from my termination and it passed fairly uneventfully which was good. DH was away so I suspect it was just me that remembered... :-(

Still no sign of my AF... felt a bit imminent on Friday but nothing yet.... Also still no sign of my Repeat Misscarriage Clinic referral... will chase soon as I want to get organised with all the tests and everything.... I want the feeling that we're making some sort of progress towards our next baby...

Heading over to the Freak Out room now ... keeping my fingers REALLY crossed for Dachs

Your right jolls she talked about whether or not to order it but was brave enough to go for it. It's just so heartbreaking. I'm hoping for a miracle. I wish they'd stitch her. I know there's a risk of infection but surely better to treat that and stitch rather than wait and see?

It's just so awful

Mouse - congratulations on your news!

Jolls- hope you find strength to continue.

I've also been rather preoccupied with Dachs' news. She's my fellow twin mummy and only a week behind me.

I know. I was in tears reading it earlier.

I don't know Dachs that well but we've chatted a bit, partly about her buggy choice which IIRC is on hold at JLP :(

Am praying like everyone that the miracle happens.

Thanks for the woops ladies. Had another +ive this afternoon so am hoping for a temp rise tomorrow or wed.

I too am preoccupied with the news over on the freak out thread. I wish there was something I could do

xx

Just popping in to say hello to everyone. However, I'm very preoccupied by the news on freak out room thread so sorry not so much to say here today.

Sorry jolls and digi that you both feeling down.

Mouse yay for body starting to get back on track. That is good.

Gentle waves to everyone else

xx

Lovely to see you on the BFPs wiggle, all FX for stickiness.

mouse, woohoo! work ok and 2+veOPK. That's good news for sure. (Ignoring other bit about 2yrs in July :().

Feeling oh so weary about gearing up for another assault on BFP mountain. CD7 here, better get to it in a day or 2.

Waves to all. Hope Monday treats you well.

Yippee mouse v exciting!

Digi and jolls sorry you are feeling down

Sounds wonderful battery make sure you take full advantage!!

Hellooo to everyone

mouse how very exciting!! You will soon be on the ttc train again!!

digi and jolls hugs to you both, lets keep our fingers crossed that a sticky bfp is right around the corner for you both xx

mummyA Hello lady, are you very busy in your new job? Feel like we haven't heard from you in ages - I am taking that as a good sign

I have had a lovely weekend, dp is over from germany on a course so he is here for the next 3 weekends and whilst i laid on the sofa feeling sleepy and pukey he did all the ironing for the week (lucky batteryhen emoticon)

Not looking forward to work this week, but need to pay the bills xx big wave to everyone else xxxx

Hello ladies digi and jolls I'll be with you in the 2 year club in July when DS turns 4. Utterly depressing.

Had to pop in as I have news! Today I have had 2, yes 2, positive OPKs!! Now, I know that that doesn't definitely mean there'll be an egg but maybe, just maybe there will and then there'll be an actual PERIOD. OMG.

How silly! I am genuinely excited

Hi Digi - glad you are having a nice break. Something you said just resonated with me. DS will be 3 in ten days time, that will be 2 years of TTC for us then too.

Fucking depressing.

Well done bee

And well done mouse

Am watching Eurovision in our holiday cottage on my own. DH has gone back to London tonight for a work thing tomorrow but will be back in the evening. DS is tucked up in bed. We've got another week here which is wonderful.
Still spotting after AF and egg not due for another 2 weeks but of course we'll be having plenty of just-in-case sex. And so it continues. This August will be 2 years of ttc.

Hi ladies, just a very quick one as I'm in transit at Changi airport, and fading fast - going to go get something to eat and go to my cell transit hotel room for a sleep before the last leg of the flight home. The last week was completely manic but it all got done and I'm feeling quite chuffed that I did it myself!

Hi ladies, I'm ok thanks. Return to work has gone ok so far. Scary boss keeps 'popping in' to check on me but other than that it's gone fine. It's really nice to not have to go back until Wednesday now though! Just got to get through this marking and I can relax again!

I'd love to go to Tuscany! Shall we arrange a MN road trip?!

Sorry DS isn't enjoying nursery anymore mummy hopefully he'll settle down again soon. Pleased to see you moving to the grads

Waves to all.

Brilliant news Tigger that's great, and you've graduated look at you and MummyA!!

YRMOTBFP great for getting your GP appt. If you don't mind I'll copy you, and call for an appt on Monday!

Izzy round here we normally go straight to the MWs too (but since I would like an early scan I have to arrange that through the GP). I've realised that however much I don't want to go to the MW booking in I shouldn't leave it too late or I might miss the window for an NT scan as it's pretty busy and they seem to be quite slow in organising scans. It'll probably take me a month to get the MW appt

Anyone seen BBB and Jolls recently? How are you both doing my lovely ladies?

I'm hoping LadyBee has arrived safely. Takeaway for first night's dinner - fush & chups

battery guessing we won't be hearing from you for a while if DP is over

Hope all's well with you mouse

Thanks for the Tuscany/Rome tips Mellies

Waves to everyone else xx

Boll*cks - hit post accidentally!!

...become all unsettled again. Just give him time to get used to it. Great news re feeling movement though, that's so cool!

yrmotb well done on making first appt, does the gp then refer you to mws in your area? We go straight to mws here so I haven't seen the gp at all (although they might have been more sympathetic!)

freezing v of lovely Tuscany plans!

battery how's the injecting going?
