PeachyClair - think you are very brave. I am not sure I could cope with a ASD child...but I guess you don't get much choice and he is your baby. (I hope I haven't offended you?)

Welcome Kazza

Cazzy the issue is, you cant get help without a written diagnosis. They can only give you a written (as opposed to verbal) diagnosis after the speech therapy assessment. Speech therapist left 5 months ago and wont be replaced.

Quite.

DS1 is Aspergers, i think thats on of the reasons (just one!) that we're going for No4, in the hope that ds2, as average as they come, will have a support- he doesn't have what anyone else would term as a real sibling, iyswim, not onle he can share with or paly with.

Course, tehre's a chance this one will be ASD too but we've been there enough it won't be end of the world.

Always wanted 4, refuse to let ASD stesl our dreams, if that isn't too dramatic?

hello Ladies can I join you please? first month of ttc number 2 (ds is 15 months) and am 4 days late, just to get my hopes up, but bfn yesterday. my cycle has become occasionally long (up to 40 days once) and used to be clockwork 28 days, so i think its just a long one. was really pleased to come across this thread and see that there's so many going thru the same thing!! there was me thinking it'd be less stressful second time around.

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 23:38

PeachyClair - your poor ds. Erghhh it makes mne so mad. At my school we have loads of support for a partly-hearing child who, to be honset, manages so really well and his LSP just sit doing nothing (well she sits and works with small groups). I hope you get something sorted!

((hugs)) a littlebitfishy xx still hoping it is all ok for u

Congratulations to cazzy xx

Thankfully ds hasnt sprouted the rash that goes with scarlet fever (he had it last year) altho the strawberry tongue is still there. It might be that the antibiotics and painrelief have started working - 5 doses down him now. He has picked up a bit today but still not a well bunny. Tears over lunch - hurting to swallow etc. Annoyed with work as they are spouting off at me for needing monday off to look after him.. Trrying to see if my mum can have him tues & wed - but she wont have him here and wil drag him to her house.. she isnt the best nurse in the world altho she means well. (remembering lack of sympathy from when i was little)

No sign of AF yet. Still achy boobs and a little achy downstairs. DOnt know whetehr to be done with it and test!! CD28 (CD24 cos started clomid late) today.

Congratulations Cazzy!

How many of us are left and are you all driving yourselves mad by symptom spotting

gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 20:25

Littlebitshy (((hugs))). Are you going to try EPU or the GPs on Monday to check what's going on?

PeachyClair · 24/03/2007 19:41

Congrats Cazzy!

Alittlebitshy

Awen and family

All going on here

Haven't been up to much BD, despearaltely trying to organise a school place for ds3- (he si autistic, no useful speech / doubly incontinent / cant read emotions / no skills such as drawing etc but the LEA want him to start in a mainstream school with nio support- my Arse he will ) and that ahs ttaken the toll a bit.

meant to say maybe NOT and new found ME

alittlebitshy · 24/03/2007 18:20

that's me, sensible.

er... actaully maybe no rofl. a new found em maybe?!

(do you all mind me still lurking - or even not so lurking - here bearing in mind i'm not going to get another bfp in march)

BeckleSpeckledEgg · 24/03/2007 18:17

that's probably a very sensible approach alittlebitshy, hope you are okay

alittlebitshy · 24/03/2007 18:14

btw i didn't read your other message properly cazzy - yay!!!!!!! well done you!!!!!!!!

that's lovely - thinking that they're with god

beckle - no that's not insensitive at all. I don't know for sure it's a miscarriage, but right now i think, for my sanity, i need to think it is, then if proven otherwise it's be great.

BeckleSpeckledEgg · 24/03/2007 17:51

oh alittlebitshy how awful for you. Have you seen doctors? Are you sure it's m/c not just bleeding? (sorry if that's insensitive - I had bleeding in all my pgs) Feel free to pop into here , we've all been through it if you need to talk...

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 17:40

Oh a littlebitshy....the only thing that got me through the 1st few weeks post mc was getting pregnant again... but I am terrified it will happen again.

It was nothing that you did or could change.

I carried on taking my multivits and allowed myself 1 cup of tea a day (I had been drinking about 5) and ate more fruit and veg.

i just try to think that the babies I lost are
with God - God had even given a name to each of them.

gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 17:38

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Best of luck, take it easy and try to keep the worry at bay. Fat chance of that I know - there are some very nice ladies in the pregnancy after mc thread and I'm sure they will welcome you with open arms and understand your worries. Hopefully several of us will join you there next month!

(((hugs)))

alittlebitshy · 24/03/2007 17:35

thanks for thinking of me
I'm crying thinking about how lovely you all are.

i think this pg is over so i WILL see you on the April thread(albs does maths re her cycle and the probability of bleeding stopping anytime soon - er, maybe not til the maay thread.... dunno...)

if any of you have had bleeding (early miscarriages i suppose i should say)..... any advice on how to start feeling better (i know, i know, it's only happened today but i'm someone who dwells on things rather and will assume that anytime i get a bfp now it's going to go wrong)

you're all fab and i think god for mumsnet.

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 17:34

Yes -well I hope so......2 lines still a line right. I guess I'll find out in a few days or not!!

But am fairly certian I am having a Novmeber baby (as long as I don't have another mc (worried face).

OP posts:
gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 17:32

huh! don't leave us like this give us details! Like I have read a million times in this these threads a line is a line. Are you sure it is a very faint positive?

Please say yes, I would love some good news for a change.

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 17:28

Ok I clearly am pregnanct after all.... decided to a test as I am going out tonight and wanted to know if to do a test or not...and there were 2 lines (1 faint but then I am 2 days before AF due).

Am very scared following 2 mc and the bad luck assocated with this thread....so am not telling anyone apart from you guys until 12 week scan.

OP posts:
LatenightOwl · 24/03/2007 15:19

Hi All,
well Im still holding on at the moment - no sign of AF but back is killing me (new one for me) and I just feel crap. If AF holds off til Wed - I test - Wed seems like light years away . Im doing temps as well and they are still high at 36.75 so fingers crossed..

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 14:17

Not many of us left...

I don't think I am pregnant this month - feel life AF is going to start tomorrow or Monday
so I might pop over to April...if that is OK!!!

OP posts:
cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 14:11
