morning all,
thank you for thinking of me re scan hope fuzzy kellz Gx jennie which I really need at the moment.

so they couldn't see a sac or anything just a blob which they can't tell the position of? possible ectopic. they did a pregnancy test which was definitely positive. they checked my hcg levels on Friday and will do again tomorrow. if levels are too high then they will do another scan. they think it could be very early pregnancy around 4-5 weeks. still a possibility of miscarriage too. I was expecting to come away reassured but feel worse than all this time of TTC. I've just been in tears Sad DH is being very supportive telling me not to worry it'll be ok but I feel rubbish. for now I'm continuing taking the folic acid.

Hello everyone. So sorry to hear about your MIL Jennie, I hope things improve over the next few days.
It sounds like lots of people are feeling down at the moment, it's gruelling isn't it? I'm just hoping against hope that we all get there eventually. DTD starting in earnest again this weekend, it's got to the stage where it isn't much fun! In the meantime I'm on the aspirin and trying not to visualise our future because who knows what it holds!
Have a good weekend everyone xxx

Kellz92 · 12/02/2016 21:55

I'm just feeling a bit like why am I struggling when I had a surprise baby a few years ago. Feel like I'm failing xxx

FuzzyOwl · 12/02/2016 20:36

I am feeling down about it all as well Kellz. It is just such an emotional time. I have found somewhere that sells the Chinese herbs I used last time I got pregnant and I think I will go back to using pregnacare and I plan to buy Clearblue OPKs for next month. Oh, of course, I obviously intend to start DTD eod much much sooner!

FuzzyOwl · 12/02/2016 10:47

Hello everyone and welcome abc and flossy

Thinking of you all jennie Flowers

I am really down today. I was fully expecting to ovulate on Monday or Tuesday (possibly even Wednesday) but have felt so tired for the last couple of days I haven't even used an opk despite having cm and cramps. Just tested this morning and have a really strong opk which means it was probably first positive on Wednesday evening or yesterday and that means I either already have ovulated or am ovulating now. As DH and I haven't DTD for a week I feel we have completely ruined our chances for this month and am just sat here in tears. Why does ttc have to be so emotionally difficult?!

Hopelass · 12/02/2016 08:49

Aw Jennie how awful for you and your family Thanks and hugs. I hope things get better and she starts to recover xx

jennielm · 12/02/2016 08:42

I've been paranoid that you all may think me callous for not mentioning MIL for a while...truth is I'm terrified of the future. She is still in acute stroke unit and we are awaiting the results of MRI because contrast dye CT showed potential for another bleed and they're trying to work out if they can do anything about it. She's only 60 and her parents are both still alive and in their 80's with parkinsons and a tumour on the brain, her husbands mum died at 61 and his dad at 64, my DH is an only child, MIL is the grandparent my 8y.o. DD is closest to and I'm just worrying about the impact on everyone if something even more serious were to happen. Hence it's actually easier to not say anything and pretend ttc is the biggest thing going on in my life...otherwise i may crumble. I hope that makes sense, but then I'm not sure anything does atm.

Hopelass · 12/02/2016 07:55

Thanks Jennie I'm cautiously optimistic but won't tell DP until I'm more certain. It's my secret with you lot!

jennielm · 12/02/2016 07:44

AjP have you tested again yet? I looked again at yours and in different light i could see the faintest line - the streaks going across start there i think.

Im on cd18, 1dpo i believe, although bbt is only back at what it was pre ov this morning, but as it coincides perfectly with end of fertility window and bbt dip for last two days i think it's a fairly safe bet...i expect it will be slightly higher again tomorrow. Fingers crossed!! Another 2ww begins!! Confused

Hating this ride already and it's only 2nd cycle!! Sad

jennielm · 12/02/2016 07:19

Deffo faint line on the pink one!! Congratulations Hope!!

Happy Friday everyone!!

Hopelass · 12/02/2016 06:45

Good morning ladies can I have your opinions please 10 dpo and I po2s (I know, naughty) I have a short luteal phase so af due tomorrow. One test is showing faint line and one showing bfn! Both internet cheapies.

CocklesandMussels · 12/02/2016 06:40

Hello everyone! Good to hear from you pregnant ladies! Pulled don't worry your little bean will take whatever it needs from you even if you feel terrible. Gx hope you start to feel better soon.
My DD is also ill, definitely something doing the rounds. Fx all get better soon.
CD7 today, and I guess also for you Mimi and Kellz, I'm back on the baby aspirin and gearing up for another month of fun(!). Stocked up on cheap OPKs and cyclogest, bring it on!

abcdemma · 11/02/2016 23:51
