have you all got cb pregnancy tests?? I've got rubbish ones!!x

Genwah85 · 08/05/2015 16:16

I asked if I had to wait a cycle and she said yes :(

I would have thought all packs where standard? I feel lucky already hahaha

How's pregnancy going choccy?

Choccywoccydodah · 08/05/2015 10:05

Lol Claire, thanks for that ;)

Gen, did you have to wait one cycle or was it just recommended?
I don't know about the waiting bit as we hadn't tried for a couple of months when we signed up to the trial so I don't know the ins and outs.
Great baggage though, I just got cheap shitty preg tests not CB!!

Joy glad the spotting has settled x

Indiedog · 08/05/2015 07:15

Sorry Joy, just re-read and see you said it seems to have settled. That's good news. Try and relax over the next few days, don't do anything to strenuous!
Your next scan will be hear before you know it.
I'm in Tuesday morning just for bloods and new syringes.

Hope you others are taking it easy too, next week will be here soon x

Fingers crossed for BFPs later on x

Genwah85 · 07/05/2015 23:30

This goody bag is driving me mad everytime I look at it I'm hoping for a period I know I'm not going to get for another 3-4 weeks! Why must our bodies do this to us! I'm also scared to do the deed this month incase I catch and they won't let me be part of trial as I didn't wait for one period after miscarriage.......I want to wait but I also want to keep our sex life happy so my dh doesn't feel used on the days I need him! Sorry if tmi....anyone else been in that situation? Hoping he will be as willing as me when needed! Xx

girliesaints · 07/05/2015 21:31

Louise,just the sack was seen on my scan. At least you saw more, which should be a positive for you.

Joy, glad to hear it's calmed down. Nether less still a pain x

Indiedog · 07/05/2015 19:08

Hi Joy, I am at the Anne as well. I'm not sure what yours is like, but I had brown mucusy discharge at six weeks. On a couple of occasions for two days I think. I thought that was it, but then it just stopped. I still where a pantie liner now! What is yours like?? Is it enough to mark a liner or is it when you wipe?

Stay positive, and hopefully it will subside. X

Joy2713 · 07/05/2015 18:34

Thanks, seems to have settled down though ive convinced myself the worst is imminent! Yep spoke to J and epu this morning. Not much can be done until either it gets heavier/crampy it stops! Just in linbo until tuesday. Sorry to moan, i know some of you ladies have much worse going on!

I think where were all the same boat it simply takes all the joy out of pregnancy, nothing but worrying and sympton spotting! Xx

clairemorgan81 · 07/05/2015 15:27

pics obv don't work on this app choccy it was a pic of a piggy!!!just joking feed your face there's no better excuse!!x

clairemorgan81 · 07/05/2015 15:26

Sorry today wasn't as you planned Louise. lets hope all okay next week , there's a good chance for you & girlie that it will be. same happened to my sister at 6 wks and all fine at 8 wks. try and enjoy spa tonight and relax if you can.

hope your okay joy pregnancies are so filled with worry for us all with what we have been through. it's such a Shame. How's things now?

glad your okay choccy ð??· lol x

philippa88 · 07/05/2015 14:22

Try and stay positive Louise, it's all you can do :)

And choccy - Philippa is a great name haha!!!

We've been at it like rabbits lol, we WILL catch this month!!! X

LouiseM1987 · 07/05/2015 13:50

Choccy they were both there today :)
Just going to the spa so hoping it takes my mind off it even if it's just for a day !
How are you doing ? X

Choccywoccydodah · 07/05/2015 13:32

Fucks sake Louise!!!! So sorry you didn't get the reassurance, these flippin babies are already causing trouble! Who was there D or L? Or both?
Please try not to worry too much sweets.

Girlie glad you've found some reassurance despite googling!!
When is your scan next week?

Philippa hurrah!!!! Brilliant news about your smiley (Philippa is on our girl shortlist btw due to ds calling this one pip!! we only have 2 we like so will be down to ds I think!)

Hope everyone else keeping ok, I'm struggling to keep up with you all lol!

All good here, just still very tired.
Cleaner here today which is fab :)
Appetite back with a vengeance, I've now put on 6lb! 3lb above pre pregnancy. Such a pig! Grin

Kazz2112 · 07/05/2015 12:51

Oh no. Not the reassurance you wanted Louise. Double finger crossing now.

i think I did ovulate late but my first response test is supposed to be very sensitive and there wasn't a hint. I've only got till next Wednesday to start injecting if I am

LouiseM1987 · 07/05/2015 12:41

Girlie it sucks for a nice way to put it. I like the ostrich approach and i think it's the best approach !

Yeah it probably is your body slowing down, any sign /symptom is so scary tho!

Was it just the yolk and your scan too ? I hope this next week goes quick but like I have to wait a week and a day ! Xx

girliesaints · 07/05/2015 12:04

Oh Louise, sorry to hear you've had a similar experience to me. It's shit but until you know otherwise you are pregnant. In the meantime I'm adopting the ostrich in the same approach..

Well I was until This morning I had a proper breakdown as was getting stomach cramps and I thought an MC was immediant. I drive to work thinking I would be turning around again but now here everything has settled down. Have been getting this for past two weeks and think it's more my digestive system slowing down but it scares me everyone.

Joy, have you spoken to the A or J from the trial team.?They've been lovely with me trying to give me advice where possible.

Marchgirl · 07/05/2015 11:06

Sorry it wasn't more definitive louise Sad really hoping it's better news next week and that you're in the 50% Who go on to have a good outcome after the same thing as girlie.

Sorry to hear you've had spotting joy. I know we can say it's perfectly normal til we're blue in the face and it still won't change the utter dread of seeing that. Hope it goes away soon and stays away x

OP posts:
Indiedog · 07/05/2015 10:36

Oh Louise, that's not what you wanted to hear. But as Girlie said, she had that email saying 50% have been the same on gone on to be ok.
As you say, keep positive, and look after yourself and see what next week brings. We will all keep everything crossed for all you guys waiting for better news.

I had browny discharge in the very early stages about 6weeks, and I was dreading it! Every time I went to the loo I thought that would be it. Try not to worry, it may be because on implantation etc. I had it when I wiped, probably twice on one day and twice on the next day.

Joy2713 · 07/05/2015 10:18

I actually hate pregnancy and the worry that comes with it after having so many miscarriages! I've got a brown discharge this morning which has sent me into a complete panic, but got my 6week scan Tuesday so only a few days to wait!

Sorry to hear that Louise but fingers crossed everything is ok for you next week.

Ladies who already have the injections what are you doing with them at work?

LouiseM1987 · 07/05/2015 10:04

It wasn't great :(
There's just the sac and yolk sac so got to go back next week from experience this isn't great but I'm going to try and be positive

Girlie was your scan the same just the yolk ? X

Marchgirl · 07/05/2015 07:39

Good luck today louise x

LouiseM1987 · 07/05/2015 06:43

Thanks ladies I feel like I'm about to throw my guts up and never stop and not in a symptom way in a i feel like I'm also going to shit myself scared way ha !
Kazz I agree with Claire could you of o'd a little later ? Xx

clairemorgan81 · 07/05/2015 06:10

there's still a chance kazz maybe you o'd later this month?x

Kazz2112 · 07/05/2015 06:06

Definitely a bfn! Which is frustrating because my cycle has always been bob on 4 weeks. 4 weeks +1 on the odd Occasion but pretty reliably regular. But here I am 4+1 and absolutely no sign of AF.

Last thing I need starting this is my cycle to decide to go up the creek! :( plus can't help but be disappointed cos we really ttc this month and we've never done that and failed. Just need to remember it would've been a huge problem to get caught this month as we're off to Barcelona in 3 weeks!

clairemorgan81 · 07/05/2015 05:24

best of luck today Louise will be thinking of you.

eek let us know as soon as you 've tested kazz its so exciting.fingers crossed for you.

March same here I'm not testing til the sun as I know it was Sun I o'd x
