Trying yes I will give it some cool name so we can all remember the Christmas excitement Grin
Mary and eve are not quite old enough :-)

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 22:19

Thanks free but not in my prog. Lots of luck-it must just be a few days to
Go.
Dildoos loving the names! I might hold u to it when u get ur bfp in new yr!

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 22:02

Ha ha...Prancer wouldn't work then...more traditional perhaps Eve or Mary? Xmas Grin

Hi free how are you getting along? So close now!!

(V.thoughtful re hydroxy...not on my programme personally!)

freelancegirl · 16/12/2014 21:27

There does seem to he quite a tradition of boys on the Pred Thread, weirdly.

Just dropping in to see if any of you taking hydroxy have to pay for your prescriptions and if so could you use about a months supply of tablets? Happy to post them to anyone who wants them. PM me your address if so.

dildoos · 16/12/2014 21:03

Yes or Rudolph! We have some cools
Name selections here small concerned none are female so suggestions for female Christmas baby required! My little girl has a very old fashioned name so needs to be in keeping Grin

sunnyday01 · 16/12/2014 20:30

I am due ovulation Christmas Day and if I fall pregnant this month it's only right I call it Jesus Smile
Sunny and trying that's cool your both together xxx

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 15:06

Good idea sunny. My DH seems to feel averse to the idea (well not averse just doesnt thnk it can be a prob as managed to get me
Preg 3 times) and I suppose I shouldn't yet as only 5
Months I know u have been ttc for
Longer this time. Seems sensible to do and I hope it's all ok it that department and its just a matter
Of time! He has agreed get it tested at 8 months. (But hopefully im preg by then!) Yes lets both fall preg next month please :) that would be nice :)

Sorry ur feeling pants too. Its hard work to always stay upbeat. Ur allowed a few bad days! 5 pounds is such good going, try get back on it tmrw. It's hard dieting when u feel shit. ESP if u enjoy food like I do! I'm such a comfort eater!

I just spoke to my mum Who was very cute and made Me a lot
Better. She said that my
Journey is long and tough but i will get there in the end and I have to keep believing that. And also that life Is just hard sometimes and there's nothing more i can do.

Can't wait till we all have our bfp and then babies!

sunnyday01 · 16/12/2014 13:59

trying - sorry to see you got your BFN, we are both back on the wagon for next month then! Like you I will be ovulating just in the new year - can't believe how close our cycles are - would be funny if we got pregnant the same month too!

I've had a bad week so far with the loosing weight - had lots of biscuits as i felt sad yesterday and today i've had 2 scotch eggs!

We have decided to get DH sperm tested overnext couple of weeks just to make sure everything is ok that side of things!

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 13:38

How u doing dildoos? Must be nearing ovulating time soon??
I've decide to start my diet today! My bmi always hovers at 25 and I think it's time I do something about it. So no biccies for me! Hopefully loosing half a stone or more will help me get preg too maybe! (Not sure pre Xmas is the best time to start!)

dildoos · 16/12/2014 13:33

Sorry bout bfn trying. Go grab some biccies to go with that latte you deserve them.
Your posts are not me me me our sil's on here are clearly just wenches! GrinWinkShock

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 11:59

Aw ur so sweet! Yes it is new year! I'm going back to my usual - no sex for a few days and then DTD day 13,14,15 (I tend to ovulate day 15). Its worked 3 times now. Not seeing SIL she has been doing my DH head in too and he's really kind and understands why I don't fancy seeing her so said lets just stay away. He reckons me and him
Are more important right now and so wotever we want to do flies. So even if its rude/not acceptable we do what's right for us. We have spent a long time making everyone else happy and suffering in the process and I think we r tired from
It. I went to see her baby the day after my Medical Management when I knew I had retained products and sat there while they asked us what we would call our baby :( (they didn't know we had just miscarried but knew we had before and were still waiting for our baby. it was so hard to hold back the tears). Frankly I haven't got the strength for that now.

The pred def masks symptoms. It's well known to. I can imagine its so hard without the symptoms. But u have a scan soon and hopefully that will reassure u. I worry about the weight and moon face too! But doesn't matter-we do what we have to do and just ignore it and keep going! A lot of women say once of the pred the moon face quickly goes and yes loose the weight after! Keep postive thinking!

Hopender · 16/12/2014 11:32

Sorry about the BFN too, Trying, but now you can get busy planning for next month. It will be a New Year when you ovulate (I just looked it up on my calendar to check!) so a fresh start! The latte must have felt good! And you can have a lovely relaxed Christmas (as long as SIL stays clear...!).
All is good with me. it is very hard to know where I am with this pregnancy as I really don't feel pregnant at all. The scan obviously reassured me massively but with no symptoms (I know it is the pred but very odd) I have nothing to obsess over! I actually feel better than I usually do. In any previous pregnancies I've had awful morning sickness. Hope it is ok! I do have sore boobs from time to time...The pred is giving me moon face too or I might just be getting really fat. I'm scared to weigh myself! I've decided not to worry about it though. I can always lose it later...
I'm glad I'm getting another scan so soon too. The next one after that is 11 weeks with Dr S. I haven't officially checked in with my GP yet and thought I would wait until after eight weeks with a heartbeat (hopefully) to do that. Five days to go...

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 10:15

Haha! I'm 11dpo so def out.
Might book a holiday tonight to drown my sorrows! Feeling a bit better now. I've just got to keep going And be patient.

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 09:52

Actually ignore second point and replace that for chocolate...just in case Wink x

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 09:42

So sorry trying - do you know what DPO you are? Could you still have time?

You deffo deserve that latte...(actually a lot more than that but not sure wine/vodka/insert tipple of choice is practical at 9:30am) Smile

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 09:37

Ps was BFN. So annoyed I wasted a test when I knew. Had a lattee this morning though yummm

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 09:35

Oh no that's just insanely cruel, such horrendous timing! If I could give you a big hug I would so sending e-hug xxx

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 09:25

Thanks guys ur all very sweet and made me feel better. Ur all very lovely ladies :)

Sorry ur SIl due same time. Sometimes things feel so cruel when things like that happen. I had medical management the day my SiL went in labour last time. I've never cried so much. It was quite perverse and felt so mean! I hope u have good news soon.

Oh how good u have a scan so soon! It will be great for reassuring u. The bean will stay put! Ur on the plan and I'm looking fwd to hearing
More of ur good news as weeks past :)

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 08:56

More successful version I meant Smile

Determined123 · 16/12/2014 08:36

Hi trying...how you are feeling is totally normal. It all seems so unfair and no one but those who have gone through it never really understand (SIL is preg with no 3, due July same as my third loss announced at 5 weeks). It's hard but i find staying focused on our 'prize' keeps me going and knowing when I celebrate others our time will come! (Otherwise it hurts too much). The reward will be simply amazing and you will get there in the end...like hope says...I would test so you know where you stand and can plan! (I found out I was preg right after sils news...could be a repeat (but the more successful addition Smile ).

Hope you are keeping well hope and feeling good?

Hopender · 16/12/2014 08:06

You aren't being me, me, me trying! We all have our good days and bad days on mumsnet. Just think of what I was like at the weekend! Total meltdown! It is terrible when people make it harder for you too. As Dildoos says, raaaaa!
I'd test if I was you because then you know for sure. That way you can also plan for next time if needed. If it doesn't happen this time, it really will happen soon. This time last month I was busy googling surrogates!
I have my next scan on Monday morning at EPU at 8 weeks one day. Please hold on until then bean!
Hello to everyone else! X

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 07:33

Sorry for the me me Posts right
Now. I'm hoping the slightly calmer and happier Me Will be back tmrw!

Tryingno1 · 16/12/2014 07:32

Haha! Thanks dildoos! Ur message made me chuckle! Good to know I'm not alone in feeling like this! I felt like a really bad person yest the things I was feeling. It's not her fault I'm going through this. But it is her fault some Of the highly stupid things she says and does!!!! She is literally the biggest complainer. If I have to hear about how hard life is for her one More time I'm going to loose the plot! dH family seem to forget what's happened to us and don't seem to act like its an issue. We come across very brave and together and are very good actors!! so I think they forget that behind closed doors we are both very sad. It's hurt DH a lot how they have been which has in turn really hurt me.

Oh well. My parents have been hugely supportive so I'm lucky that way.

I'm lying in bed, literally slept maybe 2 hours. Take a test or not? Can't bear to see a negative but then have acupuncture tmrw so should let her know either way. I'm 99 percent sure its on her way I usually know pre preg I am preg.

This miscarriage malarkey has so many knock on effects. It's had impacts on all of our relationships, jobs, friendships,fiances. It's really rather shit.
