marbles i POAS (IC) last night Blush and it was a BFN but then again it was only CD24! I will happily be your POAS buddy on Saturday, that will be CD27 for me and i should have had AF by then.

I am crazy hormonal at the moment too, i literally bit DH's head off last night on more than one occasion, he sent me up to bed with my book and a cup of tea and told me to keep out of his way as i was nagging him too much Grin

jaffa woo hoo for healthy heartbeating MissJaffa!

midget is it wrong that i chuckled at the SHO eyeing your DH suspiciously!

MumTumWanted · 10/05/2012 09:01

Dj???? Who's he ?!? Meant of course dh silly I phone!!!

MumTumWanted · 10/05/2012 09:00

Hi ladies ive been lurking on and off fir the last 2 weeks trying to keep up but failing Sad so instead i will say for now congrats for the good news for Jaffa tits midge and state it's really inspiring hearing all the good news

martha I have everything crossed for your bfp this month ( and anyone else to of course!) Wink

As for me well I've been desperately trying to get through the last 2 weeks after my last scan and well tomorrow is the day I'm also not feeling very positive my household too was struck with Norovirus and I have been very poorly only just last night being able to keep down water after 2 daysSad and other than vomitting which I totally wish was 1st trimester sickness but realistically know it was the virus I have lost all symptoms Sad dj could fondle breasts forever more as they ate just not sore no matter how much I prod them Sad I know realistically that until tomorrow I should be thinking positive I've had no pains no cramps no spotting or bleeding but I have this gut feeling I've had a mmc I guess tomorrow at 11 I will find out Confused

JaffaSnaffle · 10/05/2012 06:08

I have crazy insomnia, but feeling a lot better. Wish this stupid discharge would go, but I am partially suppressing the panic!

I am off tomorrow on a big trip. Actually feeling happy about it now. I have been commanded by my MIL to do very little other than sleep and eat. I think I am going to do that. I feel physically and mentally rung out.

Manda, I have re read your post again. I hope so much that you feel better soon. It has been a long old pregnancy, but you are on the last lap. You are past 37 weeks now? And they have their eye on you.

StateofConfusion · 09/05/2012 23:20

Hope your doing ok midge

I'm slowly metaling less, doesn't stop me running to the toilet as soon as I wake up in the morning to check for blood, but for the besy part of the day I'm getting there Smile

Midgetm · 09/05/2012 22:08

That is good state. Allow yourself to not metal just for a week or so and see how it goes. becasue I am so good at that myself

StateofConfusion · 09/05/2012 20:28

Fantastic news jaffa

I'm actually starting to believe in this pregnancy, my symptoms are getting stronger whereas last time they stayed low, and I just feel content. That's good right?

MissCoffeeNWine · 09/05/2012 20:19

Ohhhh good news all round Grin jaffa tits midge! Real life hugs for all of you

Midgetm · 09/05/2012 20:15

Blimey so much to catch up on and doing so from my stupid iPhone app.

jaffa huge sigh of relief for you on all fronts. Here's hoping for some metal free weeks or even months for you. You must feel exhausted.

manda hope you are getting plenty of rest. How many weeks are you now?

marbles and Martha, I admire your POAS patience. Got everything crossed for you both for the results you so deserve.

tits yippee for bums in the air scans. Bugger off sickness and go and get on someone else's tits.

Well I was at the hospital for nearly 3 hours. No real answers but feeling more positive. Actually like a comedy appointment. Very young SHO at first who basically had to tell me that I had an appointment with a 'special' midwife to discuss my positive syphilis test. cue embarrassment, shifty looks at DH. Anyway long and short of it seems to be a false positive in a rather dodgy test but it diffused the tension of the appointment as I was too busy making bad jokes about getting a divorce and asking if you can get it off a toilet seat. The pure indignity of it all. They were very lively. Did a swab and another urine, blood test and swab to make double sure no infection and listened to the HB (Dr very pleased as this was the earliest he had found one - bless). They are going to scan me every 4 weeks, offered ELC if I want one (don't think I do thank you but DH does?!). They seemed relaxed about miscarriage and don't think this bleed is anything to worry about. So for now, I must believe them. Still not stopped and weird kind of colour. Hope by tomorrow it's gone for a few metal free days.

let's hope the ladies on this thread are in for a spate of good luck, and we add in a couple of new BFP's this week x

bonzo77 · 09/05/2012 20:06

Yaaaaaay jaffa.

NoMoreMarbles · 09/05/2012 19:37

thanks jaffaSmile excellent news re: heart-beat-y baby girl!! Grin excellent!!

i have been feeling very teary and hormonal today so i reckon AF is 'round the corner...we will see. DD was off school ill today and we watched tangled and i welled up at the endHmm i have watched that film ALOT of times and this is the first time i have reacted that way... i have had low crampy pains and needing a wee more often though...(pee off bloody non-symptomsHmm)

good luck martha we can be POAS buddies if you want...im aiming for saturday as im out for BILs birthday saturday night so need to know if i can get sloshed or just pretend toWink how about yourself?

JaffaSnaffle · 09/05/2012 19:11

Oh and good luck to marbles too. I hope you get through the next few days and then get lovely news!

JaffaSnaffle · 09/05/2012 19:08

Wonderful news Tits. I am so pleased for you and your little 'bottoms up'.

Manda, I am so sorry you are having such a hard time. How far in are you now? And does this affect any of your birth plans?

Martha, i hope that this is your month. You deserve it.

Well panic over for now. Heartbeatingt baby found! And internal exam showed everything to be ok. They think the bit of blood might be either because of speculum exam yesterday, or a little clot from the cvs working its way out. But they are not worried, and I have to believe them.

I hope in a few days, the metalling will die down a bit. Today, I am 13 weeks and 5 days, with a healthy girl with a heart beat. Bye bye first trimester, you tormentor, you will not be missed. I have got a tiny bit of hope again.

Thank you for all your support. It really really helped. I wish I could give you all real life hugs. X

StateofConfusion · 09/05/2012 18:39

Great news tits

Hope things are resolved soon manda

farfallarocks · 09/05/2012 17:44

Yay tits!

manda, how many weeks are you, could this be labour? Keep an eye on it.

martha keeping all crossed for your BFP!!!

kirrinIsland · 09/05/2012 16:50

Congratulations tits that's great news.

manda sounds like there's a lot they don't know, but so long as you are doing ok that's the main thing

leedy · 09/05/2012 16:04

Great news tits!

MarthasHarbour · 09/05/2012 16:02

woo hoo tits my DS was the same, showing his bottom, and has continued in the same vein for the last three years Grin i remember having to redo my 20 week scan at 21 weeks as he lay there arse akimbo!! Grin

TitsalinaBumSquash · 09/05/2012 15:43

Big hug to manda too, take it easy lady and look after yourself, I hope things get resolved soon. Smile

TitsalinaBumSquash · 09/05/2012 15:42

jaffa wonderful news about your daughter! I hope the discharge goes away soon and you can rest peacefully for a while.

I had my scan, we have 1 baby, with heartbeat and spot on fluid measurements for down, also 1 baby who refused to let us see anything but it's bottom for the majority of the time. Grin

Sickness has ramped up, cannot even keep water down now, did a classy spot of being sick in a bush outside the hospital and again in a carrier bag in the car. Sad

Much love to all, here is hoping May is full of BFPs for you all. Smile

MarthasHarbour · 09/05/2012 15:26

manda i need a shitting BFP this month otherwise i am going to shag DH senseless in June. Angry Hmm

sheesh sorry about that liddle outburst, i am a hormonal wreck at the moment i keep seeing babies and bumps everwhere and getting all teary eyed - not jealousy just, 'marffness'!

Anyway manda i am getting all fretty about you at the moment, whilst on my lunch earlier i was trying to work out your dates and whether you are in labour, god knows what i am going to be like when you do go into labour

i think with anaemia they automatically test your thyroid (i know ALL about this as my good old Nanna is going through anaemia investigations), i hope all is ok, although maybe they are on overdrive as you are, well, fit to drop? Wink

Well you lot will be the first to know when AF-v-BFP situ arises this weekend

Smile
MandaHugNKiss · 09/05/2012 14:52

Sorry for absence yesterday - when I wanted to post that I was thinking of you jaffa - had my appointment with the consultant midwife and she had a few concernes so I had a couple of investigations that meant I was at the hospital for five hours instead of one! ECG on me confirms tachycardia (I already knew this, and have mentioned it several times... it was worst around 28 weeks when resting hb was 140's... it's currently 110-130) but they don't know why. My bloods at 28 weeks says no anemia, although 'lowish' so they've repeated that test and are also testing my thyroid (quite sure that is also a dead end as I had it tested just before conception and it was fine plus I don't have any of the other classic over active symptoms Confused).

CTG shows he's happy enough in there but I have an irritable uterus (suits the rest of me, then Grin) SMall contractions every minute, and one big one in the time I was on the monitor (about half an hour). Again, I've mentioned I'm getting LOTS of very strong braxtons but it's been ignored.

So, they 'don't know' why I am tachycardic and keep getting episodes of breathlessness and I'm to go back if it gets bad/worse again. What a waste of time! And I ended up in a right state last night crying my eyes out several times (also cried when I walked into my appointment - all she said was 'hello, how are you?' JEEEEZE!)

jaffa COngratulations on your good news - a healthy little girl. As far as I know the risk of cvs complicated miscarriage is in the 48hours after the procedure, but some wpmen have a little bit of spotting that will go on for longer than that. That's no doubt what the peach coloured discharge is and although I know I WOULD worry, you've past the real danger zone and this is somewhat of a mild 'hangover'.

That said. When you say driving to penzance... are YOU driving? If you really, really must take the trip then it's got to be as 'easy' on you as possible. And as you have had a good result, I think you should share with the people you're spending time with that you're to take it easy too. Don't get roped in to pitching in with cooking and cleaning up after people - you're fragile at the moment (not made of glass, or needing wrapping in cotton wool completely but you DO need some tlc).

Oooh, marbles and marff are cycle buddies...

MarthasHarbour · 09/05/2012 13:47

jaffa that is amazing news Smile sorry about the nightmare but you are in the best place

I am on CD24 and due AF/POAS around this weekend sometime. After being so blase about it the last couple of months i really desperately want it to happen this month Sad i just know that fecking AF will be here by Fri/Sat.

MissCoffeeNWine · 09/05/2012 13:40

Oh Jaffa congratulations on your healthy girl and fingers crossed you have nothing to worry about from now - thinking of you over here.

kirrinIsland · 09/05/2012 13:39

Good news on the results Jaffa what a relief.
Hospital is the best place to be at the moment, and you'll hopefully be able to get the answers you need. The discharge doesn't necessarily mean anything bad, though it does of course cause a load of extra worry that you just don't need. Thinking of you xxx
