TTC after MC - nice people in crap times, full of posifrickingtivity

Congrats ostrich and welcome!

We'll look after you here

POAS Friday so am back to check up on you lot - LOVING the faint line news - fingers, toes, ears everything frickin crossed!

Not such great news in RL as a very dear friend has had a second IVF round 'fail' (horrible word) - shes pretty low so hoping with a bit of space she will feel up to thinking about her next step.

A work colleague has also had the news that at 30 and after 2 MCs and an Ectopic (lost one of her tubes) they still wont do any tests or exploratory work until she loses another baby - its so frustrating and I feel desperately sorry for her but we cooked up a plan for her to get tests done privately (with our work insurance plan which Im a liaison for)to try and force a kick start to some assistance so am hopeful for her.

Sorry to see new arrivals and weasel - sending you my very best wishes that you recover quickly

I have just passed the point I miscarried last time - am now 9+1. I have a booking in appt on Wednesday if I make it (cant shake off the habit of being abit super cautious) - does anyone know if you have a chance of hearing a heart beat at 9+6 or too early?

and back to fertile friday and whoo hoo to sensational sunday!

Ooh pants aly. Still- its definitely a good thing when your body gets back into gear again after it all

Hi ladies, sorry for butting in on your good news this morning, I almost posted a message last night but chickened out. Poas this morning and there's a line and I can't stop shaking!
I have 1 DS (3.10) & had 3 mmc in the last 2 years so Im feeling v nervous! Been for tests (advised to take aspirin and heparin this pregnancy) and had scar tissue removed as had 3 erpc. Hoping for hand holding as I've been mental this week! Very happy to hold hands too. Will be poads tomorrow as I want to see the words. Take care x

woo to zeu and choc

how'd you go ickle?

i had another look at my "line" after it had been in the bin for 15 min and I could still see something. But I think it must have been my imagination because AF has defo arrived now. Boo.
Oh well, it's good that my body is working again as it should after ERPC.

Oooh lines!! We love lines!! Get a digi and poas again!!!!!! Yippeee for lines!!

Waaaa! Hooray look at these lines! Well done ladies and fx aly

Yes to poas sun - its in the rules remember if you've already had a line.

Congrats congrats x

Fx for all these faint lines becoming stronger ones!

Fx choc and aly too. Faint lines all round!!

Can we have a second poas session eg on Sunday??

3 for 3! Meep! I will cross fingers and toes and legs and hope they are all sticky ones for you.... X

Well the poas update here is I think there's a faint line!! But not going to cal it a bfp yet, will poas again next week...

aly fx on your faint line!! I have been peering at my stick and think I'm now convincing myself I can see a line where there clearly isn't one.
Let's see what the day brings - hopefully not bloody AF!

Well. I think that I can see a v v v v v faint line. BUT more clear evidence of af: actually a bit of red gunk, not just a brown tinge.
So I'm either going crazy and imaging the line, or there was something there, but it's not going to stick.
If that's the case I'm ok with it. It's hard to make a proper human and I want perfect. And would it prove that super sperm do work, just not quite right this time.
still could be implantation bleed but unlikely

Boo choc, but with no AF could still be too early

BFN for me this morning - Just using cheapy hpts from eBay until I think it's worth a better one.
As I didn't get a peak on CBFM I have no idea if/when I ov'd and DH was away last week so didn't have much chance
Will see if AF shows up and maybe test again on Sunday if not.

Fx for everyone else Poasing

Thank you lovely people. Being v well looked after by DH, and though I can't knit for toffee, I do stitch, and the wonderful Emily Peacock does some fab designs. Hugely therapeutic. Will keep my fingers crossed for those POASing tomorrow, hopefully I'll be joining you soon. X

weasel so sorry to hear your mc was confirmed, hope you are being looked after in real life X

Hello everyone else, less than an hour to poas and I'm on a quick change over shift so will be back checking at 6am on the commute, for any early birds! Good Luck Ladies x

POSIFRICKINTIVITY coming your way

Hope there is hCG all around for those POAS tomorrow.
Thinking of you all xx

Good luck for POAS Friday - hope we get some BFPs

santa they don't want my blood either till I've finished having kids, was a bit put out at the time but the reasoning makes sense...we take vitamins to aid any PG so why would we give it away, but was upset when I had just MCd again and was trying to do a good thing!

Yup that's a great cardi.
choc funny feeling sounds good. Fx.
Little bit more brownish gunk for me. But if it is af it's 3 days early. Hmm.

Thanks for the fx janie and pink, nice to see you! and thanks everyone else too

Evening chatty ladies!!

Weasel - sorry to hear your mc was confirmed Hun - be kind to yourself and give yourself as much time as you need.

Blackholes - welcome, sorry you are here - it's so sad that there are so many of us but its a fantastic thread for support.

Saggy - thanks for the vitamin b info - did you start taking it on cd1 - I'm cd10 at the moment so wondering if its worth starting it this cycle - I don't ovulate until cd25-28.

Good luck for anyone POAS tomorrow - fingers crossed!! X

I had my mum help me get the wool and right needles, then ravelry has helped with the tricky new accronyms, but it's basically ALOT of knitting and purling. I have only done hats and random scarves up to now, but wanted to make something I'll actually wear (possibly) if I was going to put all the effort into making it up. Have managed the collar and about 2 inches down so will be ready for autumn I should guess!

I have my eye on a tank top for DS - but need to save up for the wool (hobby craft 3 for 2 offer seems to be the best I can find)

Have been constructing a tractor for DS to wear to fancy dress birthday party on Sat . The theme is "favourite character from a book" - DS is in to the sale ads at the end of the Farming Times and his tractor ted/Tom books, so is a no brainer. I bet he will refuse to wear it though

hello chatterboxes, had to come searching for you guys! hope you are all doing well. wanted to say good luck for all the posers tomorrow. set your alarms early girls :)

i also LOVE that cardigan chocolate. i can't knit so no attempt trying just now, but MIL is a whizz at every type of needle craft so i might show her it and maybe she'll help me :)

Fingers crossed for all poas-ers for tomorrow. Choc- funny feelings was what told me I was 2nd and 3rd times! (1st time not the foggiest!)

And thanks for the reminder about the sewing bee- I meant to etch tht and forgot!

Thanks for the tip chocolate. Checked out the cardi, not sure I'm brave enough for that! Fx for you tomorrow, I'm a big believer in "funny feelings" :)

choc that cardigan is BEAUTIFUL! Its my perfect piece of knitwear. Are you serious that's your first project?

Ooo another fx for tomorrow!
