Elderberry Pavlovas Unite - the over 30s TTC number 1 (thread 2)

So sorry twinkle

Bfn.....

Ah good news purple

Quod - my bloods are at 8am mon and my scan at midday - we're totally in synch. Also ridiculously nervous - oddly just want it 'over and done with' now (despite rat meaning the end of my hols). Good luck for mon.

Twinkle, that sounds promising, I hope you update us first thing! FX

Great news Purple, you had us worried when there was no update for so long! I'm due 26th June so only 6 days between us

PS good news happy about sperm results :)

Good news bottle and purple!

AF was due yesterday and still no sign. I've got a frer to take in the morning as I have a work Xmas do tomorrow so need to know if I shouldn't drink. I don't want to drink I want a BFP!!!

I'm not getting overexcited tho as I'm on cd32 and I've been known to go up to cd43 before (only once but still :)). Can't get too excited.

Purple was it a subchorionic bleed? It must have been so nice to see a little wriggler in there, did you get a picture? My appt is first thing on Monday (Xmas eve). DP and I are both going to be very nervous I think.

Mother are you sure it is EW and not gentleman's emissions?! Pipbin has a patented test to tell the difference.

ahh fab news purple so chuffed for u!!!

on another note I still have EWCM two days after I OV'd....is that usual?

Thanks Quod, I apparently have an enormous bladder (though you wouldn't think it the amount I have to go) the sonographer had to get me to empty it as it was squishing the poor little wriggler and she couldn't see properly
When's your scan? I had some bleeding which sounds similar to yours and on my scan today she could tell and pointed out something to me and said I might get more bleeding but not to worry TOO much about it. I'm afraid baby brain means the don't panic too much bit was the only bit I really remember! Something about a little pocket of blood sitting behind the placenta or something? Sorry, I'm very vague today. 'Heartbeat' is the only bit I really took in.

Great news Purple!

Oh and I have a due date, finally! the mini monster is due on 2nd July

I'm here! sorry for keeping you waiting, manic day. All is ok, we have a heartbeat! Phew!
Hope everyone else is ok.

Blimey a lot going on today!

Congratulations MrsMustard, fantastic news and another BFP to add to our Elderberry successes.
Bottlered I am so glad you have been reassured.
Janey how annoying! Did they just vanish with it? Hopefully some of your friends will have Dubai photos too? I know it's not the same.
Navis sorry to hear you are out.

Well I have had a small freak out over some brown spotting here, but it was the day after sex, and a couple of times now I've had a very slight tinge to post dtd-cm (sorry, that's a lot of tmi). However, What To Expect has reassured me that light post-sex spotting is very common, and seeing as I do have a cervical erosion which has been responsible for mid-cycle spotting before, I am trying not to get wound up about it. Scan on Monday so no point going to the docs now. I am now basically symptom-free apart from a smaller bladder, which does feel weird - I do hope there is something in there.

Hoping Purple will come back and reassure us that all is fine.

good news happy

has anyone heard from purple???

I'm out for this month - bring on the

That's great news happy!

DP had the results of the sperm analysis he demanded today. Fortunately all is well ('above average' according to him!). So that's a relief. Just hope all is on with me now!

pip maybe that is what I am hoping it is.. Fx!

Well I'm still here. 7dpo and the tiniest tinge of brown to my cm today.
Other than that. No news.

Hi not had time to check while thread but just came to say hello as been busy at work and tread disappeared!
Hope everyone is well!

janey what a jerk!
hazle can't anyone respect the concept of secrets anymore?

His knows = god knows!

Grrrr why do people feel it's their bloody news to spread? I'm sick of being asked due to the boobage situation - the main culprit has two children of his own so must remember how stressful it was for his wife to keep it secret, so his knows why he kept trying to out me. One of the best things about all my dec hol has been the whole avoiding work and Xmas drinking - such a relief.
Glad your boss was ok hazle.
Yep hoping it's going ok for purple too...

Well, can I just warn you that if you don't want the whole world to know about the pregnancy yet, do not tell anybody. Tell one colleague and the whole company knows in about 5 seconds.

Had to tell my boss now as well and I was certainly not planning to do it before January - we're in the middle of a massive deal that needs to be closed this year and a colleague from my small department just resigned, so honestly, the worst possible time to come out with my announcement. She took it reasonalby well though. Must be the shock.

Hope purple's scan is going well!
