Just MC and ready to try again? Pregnant after MC and seeking somewhere safe to hide? Come on down to the shiny new baby-friendly MOSH PIT.

tiago congrats! A BFP when you're trying to talk yourself out of the possibility to avoid disappointment is one of the best kinds

Excellent news tiago! :)

I am getting thoroughly grumpy with the 2ww now and I still have 9 days to go! I have spent the last week crampy and irritable so I am fully having a whinge.

Hurray for Tiago!!!! Great news!

ooo tiago excellent news!!

leedy i would test too but im a serial tester...

tas thinking of you today xx

i have been having AF symptoms today (no AF tho...) heavy achey boobs, period-y type pains...i am on CD 23 and if this cycle is "normal" i wont get Af for another 8 days. going by my last 'cycle' i could be due any time now...it was 20 days of total WTFing...i feel like i Oved on CD13 going by CM etc and DH and I SWIed ALOT this month too...my LP is usually 11/12 days so going by that Af could be due in a few days...someone slap me please...

Have not yet encountered the neon wee but have high hopes....

Hmm, Dr Internet says it's more likely to be residual progesterone as I suspected, though could be pregnancy. I suppose if they're still up tomorrow I might sacrifice an expensive pg test to the fertility gods....

tiago fab news...

leedy all sounds a bit odd (not a charter here either but am sure that from what I've herad here on MN that temps are supposed to drop when AF comes to hear the confusion!) When did you last test?

Oh yes, and have you experienced the bright neon pee yet?

Wooooooooo, tiago! Delighted for you!

far, I had thought about doing a test (especially as I'm also exhausted) but then thought it was a mad idea. Perhaps if someone shares my madness I should give it a go. :)

I can also report that high dose B vits smell of Marmite.

tiago wonderful news on the big fat positive, hurray. We can be mentallingbuddies

leedy there is a section in the Taking Charge book about that, and it was a vanishing twin or something like that. Sorry I am not a charter so can;t advise, but maybe worth doing a test?

Wow congratulations Tiago!

OMFG - it's positive. The bloomin' line started showing before the control did! And unlike the last two ties, it is not an apologetic barely there line - it's a definitely there line.

Thinking of you today, tas.

And tiago, that sounds quite, well, positive.

Meanwhile, in "my body is confusing me" news, I am on day 3 of my period but my temps are still way up. Residual progesterone? I have also bought high dose B vits, as instructed! Got a small tub of B50 just to see how that goes, then will try B100 when I'm finished with that if I don't go numb/have not managed to get pg in the meantime.

Thanks bluecrane I think ginger cake could be just the ticket

Luckily I don't live/work in London, it was just a training day down there yesterday so I don't have to deal with the tube normally. I'm hoping to avoid telling work until and unless the 12 week scan is OK as I hated having to tell everyone the bad news last time - the awkwardness was unbearable.

whatso take it easy and don't push yourself...try and keep drinking lots of water too! When I was about 10.5 weeks we went to NYC and I pretty much passed out/collapsed on the subway there and spent a while slumped on the floor of the station trying to sort myself out! I think that overheating and dehydration as well as standing for too long can really take it's toll in the early days and so frustrating! is there any way that you could arrange to go into work a little later each day to avoid the rush hour? Though that would mean telling work which you may still not want to given that it's still early days! How about some ginger cake instead?

Quick pitstop to say so sorry to hear your news tas and I hope the surgery is swift, as painless as possible and all goes to plan.

Bluecrane I would love some lemon drizzle cake but I strongly suspect it would be wasted on me and end up in a pile by my desk (feeling pretty pukey today).

Nearly fainted on the underground yesterday and had to collapse in a heap at the top of the escalators at Euston station and sit on the floor in a very undignified manner. Felt pretty ropey since then. Absolutely cannot wait for the early scan on Saturday as if it is going OK I can at least feel like I feel hellish for a very good reason.

Morning all! Apologies for being awol again! I see there's a lot to catch up on...

Firstly tas I am so so sorry for your news and really hope all goes as well as it can today and that you get good news about the other tube, and that op recovery is ok and fairly speedy at least on the physical side - I suspect the emotional impact of this will take quite a while longer.

tits what a PITA for you trekking all that way only to be sent home sorry you've not been feeling well either but here's hoping your DP has some extra insight here eh and that you get some good news in the next week.

IQ for reaching 'term'. I must say I'm not looking forward to the 'waiting for it all to happen bit' when I get to that stage but TBH the whole TTC and pregnancy thing seems to be an endurance test in patience anyway so we should all be pretty well practiced by then!! How is your Grandad doing?

Frozen for your scan - fab news!

pebs hope the metalling isn't driving you too crazy! Hang in there!

marbles fab news on your job - well done! Hope all goes well with HR sorting the details out!

jaffa as pebs said I would get yourself a digi to check with...I always used IC's as a cheap POAS before using an expensive one if I thought there was a line. The IC's often stay pretty faint! Keep us posted!

tiago popping out sounds like a plan...though buy a pack of two if you can as you'll probably want to test again in the morning with FMU! Let us know how you get on!

manda sounds as though I might need to get the details of this Chez Bruce place...we're in west London so it can't be too far away from us can it?! Hope your LO is feeling a bit better too!

Waves to marthas and everyone else I've missed!

All is well in the land of mini-crane...still practicing for the kick boxing championships in there and growing rather speedily, so much so that I am rapidly running out of work clothes that fit though it might be linked to cake consumption as well

jaffa

my ic's didn't give me a darker line. i was stressing out thinking the worst (as usual) but the girls on here said they don't get dark for ages.

get a proper test of you have a faint line on ic. i got a clearblue digi and it came up 2-3 weeks.

Oh jaffa, sounds promising!

tiago I hope you get out to chemist and get good news.

tits, you have more discipline than me.

My ics arrived yesterday. I have done 2 and they both have the faintest of faint lines on. I am not sure if this is just ic being rubbish quality or the real thing. I am 11dpo. I did a test at weekend and it was negative, so think it is not mc hangover. I will believe more when I get darker lines I suppose. Definitely not sure yet, but passed on coffee this morning.

I usually get cramps and very mild boob ache, but this is definitely more intense than usual (and lacking the cramps). I went swimming earlier and in the shower afterward it was powerful) my boobs were definitely unhappy.

It may just be a side effect of the Pregnacare maybe. I appreciate I have no scientific basis for that last statement, of course.

Are you showing any signs of AF, do you usually?

Well I would hate to withhold entertainment. If AF hasn't visited by lunchtime I will extricate myself from my very boring absoutely fascinating document review and find the nearest chemist.

SWI has been done this cycle, so it is possible, it's just so disappointing every time I get my hopes up that I try not to get excited now... DH's considered opinon is that my cycle has just gone crazy - I think that he is trying to stop me getting excited too.

A late period is a late period, can you not nip to a chemist and get a test under the grounds of feeling a bit off colour and needing some air? Plus, I can wait here and be entertained by your news :D

I am already symptom spotting like a beast! 9I say me, I mean DP)

I think I ovulated a few days early this month, judging by the ewcm (sorry tmi) and crampy abdo.
So it would only be 10dpo but, DP rather unhelpfully mentioned that I have done nothing but vomit, sleep and swing from crying to anger the past couple days, also he hugged me this morning and I flinched because my boobs were hurting, combined with the vice like headache for several days, he is determined.

I did point out to him that I have been under stress and these are all af symptoms too and it would be to early to be getting symptoms.
He came back with, "But you never get signs of af until 2 days before and even then it's only mild mood swings and slight cramps, and last time you were like this for a week before you finally tested"

Bless him, he is sooo keen on being a dad that he is worse than I am! Symptom spotting me like a crazy man.

sigh I hate the 2ww.

tiago why would it be unlikely for you to be pg? have you been swi this cycle? af is late - get a test!
