Trying to conceive after mc? Pregnant after MC and seeking somewhere safe to hide? Recently graduated from the mosh pit? Come on down to the mosh pit for some serious metalling and cake part 4

step away from the sticks cogito! didn't listen to own advice today you are pregnant, congratulations!

is sooooo weird how you just want a bfp... any bfp! and you get one... yay! ... but then you need a better bfp! with lots of different brands!

brave is a crochet blanket! been so long since i crocheted tho is quite a mess already only started this aft! is my mess tho and so i love it :)

I took one yesterday morning and one this morning... (I know, I know!!)
It's more the fact that yesterday should've been further along... I ovulated 3 weeks ago - and the last time we dtd was over two weeks ago so it's not possible for me to be less than 4 weeks (so 2 for the CBD indicator)

cogitosum when was last time you tested? There's no point worrying about CBD indicators if it's not been an actual whole week since last time...

Congrats on scan pebs and HB tas

Got very slight period like cramps today but feeling sick with them so hoping it's ok!

Just did another test in the loo at work and it was a fairly strong positive so I'm hoping hcg is rising. Did a CBD this morning and it still says 1-2 weeks which is worrying as lmp was 5 weeks ago so should be 2-3 now

I totally didn't scroll to next page... Yay pebs fab news

And must be great to hear HB tas tho agree must be rubbish being signed off. Still, if you need the rest, you need the rest. Watch a boxset or something

Hi tas - sorry about your granny and all the other uncertainties - sounds like a rotten string of luck. Fx it picks up soo and minitas has been unharmed by all the drama.

Woop woop for the good scan news wilde - get you measuring ahead for dates! Bet it feels good to be 'out' - especially before Xmas so no sneaky non-drinking required.

I like the idea of a baby blanket - embroidered or knitted? Have been seriously considering learning to knit (or relearning, as I used to knit when I was a kid) but think it would be 'way too obvious' to everyone who doesn't know we're trying IFYSWIM.

Glad you're both feeling better dorita and MrsHP, too

Pebs and news from scanland? Hope all is well...

so happy for you pebs

yay tas for HB but sorry about being signed off :(

dorita I don't know anything about these things sorry. I do know that it is usually best to step away from google at these times though

great news pebs!! .

I had a GP appt today and we listened to the baby's heartbeat with a doppler . Been signed off for another week and have to have more antibiotics though, which is not so great.

mrshp hope you're feeling better today, it's understandable to feel rubbish sometimes, just roll with it and a better day is just around the corner.

very happy today. scan went well and baby was measuring perfectly for 19+0 which is what I am based on lmp and dating scan!

Bloods were taken on day 18 and day 2. Fsh was the second jolly Think you're right MrsHP but you know what it's like when you start googling! But nice to hear good things like your's tas thank you x

Congrats on the scans and hello to everyone new and old!

Thanks for your kind comments, I did feel better about it all today.

Dorita, I don't know anything about FSH levels, but it has to be good that your doctor wasn't overly concerned?

hi dorita I had my FSH tested a few cycles before I got my BFP and it was 12.8. So not much difference, but it can vary from cycle to cycle. I hear acupuncture is good at lowering FSH.

thanks peeps, and thank you all for your kind thoughts running up to the scan, I saw some earlier and welled up. you are so lovely.

fingers so crossed for plenty of BFPs soon, can't wait :) :)

...not that I'm looking at IVF, just mean that they think 15 is too high for a pregnancy....

Ooo congrats cheese and wilde! Welcome cogito sorry you're here but as you can see, there are many graduates with bumps so it's a good place to be Hi to tas too, welcome back

Am feeling perky jolly! hopeful though it's annoying not knowing when to expect AF, could be anytime between tomorrow and next Fri due to the odd cycles recently.

Bit of advice please ladies - I've also been looking into the results of my blood tests a bit and would appreciate anyone's experience of this.

My doc said my LH level was fine and I've ovulated. My FSH level was higher than expected but nothing to worry about, she said to get tested again next month so we can check it. Anyway, I didn't ask what my LH level actually was but my FSH was 14.8 and some websites say at 15 they don't advise IVF as your chances are pretty non existent but another site says up to 20 is normal. Doc didn't seem concerned at all....I'm not too concerned but any thoughts??

Thank you in advance lovely mn ladies!

hehe womble tas

all fab on the scan, baby measuring ahead of dates at 13+2 which is lovely, wriggly little thing and as healthy as you can know at this stage. we have come out of the closet to family and friends and it feels wonderful to hear the congrats. Am hoping I will feel kicks soon and then can start to enjoy being pg. After three good scans i have to let myself relax into it soon. I am going to make a baby blanket as soon as I get the materials, start to bond a bit :)

sorry for me, me, me just a quickie to blather on.

pebs good luck tomorrow,

hello everyone, it's been a long time, I have been hiding out on the ectopic pg thread. I recognise some names, lovely to see you all so far along pebs, state and wilde.

wilde I was prodding my womble area yesterday and even called it my "womble", I was thinking of you!!

Hi to everyone else, and congrats to cheese on your 12 wk scan.

I'm 14 wks now allegedly. I still can't be happy about the little bean. I've had 4 scans because of my previous disasters (MMC Nov '11 and ectopic Feb'12) so really it should seem real.

I had my 12 wk scan last Monday and thought finally I can start to relax. Then was promptly hospitalised with pneumonia. Great. I'm back home and on the mend but I am very worried about the baby. I'm seeing the GP tomorrow but I'm tempted by a private scan. I called The Fetal Medicine Centre today and they said that it's better to wait for 16 wks, then they can have a better look at any potential anomalies.

My Granny died this morning, so it feels like just non-stop rubbish news. I feel awful I can't go and be with my Mum but I walked to the post box (about 50m) yesterday and fell asleep on the sofa when I got back, I was so exhausted. There's no way I can do 90 mins on public transport, changing and waiting around in the cold.

Ok moan over! Hope everyone has lots of good luck and BFPs and happy scans!

Glad the scan went well cheese

Yay for good news cheese

good stuff cheese i was 12+6 at mine as well!

maybe it's time for you to believe now - very hard though eh?

Yay that's great news cheese and pleased that the nuchal fold also looked reasuring.

I hope we hear from wilde soon - Hoping all is well there too.
