@Cakelaur oh I will have a look at the Radisson blu!

Unfortunately I have not been offered a scan at all yet. I haven't even been referred to my epau, all of this is being managed by my GP with telephone advice from gynae. If my levels are increasing on tomorrows test I am going to ask again to be referred to epau and for a scan, as the uncertainty of it all and worry about suddenly becoming unwell with an ectopic is not good.

Cakelaur · 02/05/2018 08:03

@strawberrye we're in the North East part of the island. Staying at the Radisson Blu resort. Can't fault the service. They dealt with the mess up very well. The weather is lovely!! Defo worth booking. How are you getting on? Is there a chance when you go back for another scan, that baby is in the right place? And it could have just been a little early? X

L1zz13 · 02/05/2018 07:43

Ffs! It not not work!

Curlypop · 02/05/2018 07:42

Oh my goodness @Cakelaur that looks amazing. Have a great time!

strawberrye · 02/05/2018 07:41

Wow this thread moves so quick. Just lurking at the moment as I'm trying to forget about the fact that I'm pregnant but with a non viable pregnancy of unknown location... Waiting for repeat bloods tomorrow to see what's happening.

@cakelaur omg your puppy is the cutest. Hotel looks lush, hope you're having a relaxing time! Whereabouts in Mauritius are you? We are thinking of booking a holiday there later this year.

Good luck to everyone with their OH pouncing!

Cakelaur · 02/05/2018 07:20

@weasledee oooh!! How exciting!! Hopefully TWW goes nice and quick!!!

Totally missing my puppy as well!! Haha he's grown so much in the two weeks we had him!! Bet he'll be twice as big once we're back!!

@Boboelephant Mauritius is NOW lovely!! When we first got here our 5 star adult only all inclusive seemed to be a 4 star kid friendly all inclusive (but with so many restrictions) they didn't have our reservation, stuck us in a wheel chair room (complete with disabled loo and hand held shower that didn't reach higher than my waist) they refused to let us eat (dunno why people mess with pregnant hungry women) and we were stuck in their lobby with no drinks or food (since the flight which was 6 hours previously) I totally lost it!!! Since then they fed me (instantly I was happy - a delicious pizza) and found us the most lovely room and turned down the bed with rose petals and swans and offered us so many extras!!! So I'm now chilling in the garden sofa in the sun shine. OH is still asleep bless him (he had a few last night) reading a book in blissful peace and quite!! So I'd say after yesterday's drama.. today is perfect!! (Photos of the room haha)

Haha @hayleyfx let's hope it doesn't come to that!! 🤢😫
@YellowDaffodils86 yep always nice to have a twin! Keep cracking on! 👍
@BabynameEdie not sure we'll make it but let's see! DH thinks it's the best plan ever. Im also overdoing opks although prob not due to ovulate until next week but I don't want to miss it either!
@L1zz13 hope it worked!
@zarala thanks for baby dust! 😍
@Lilimum4 fx is fingers crossed
@Cakelaur thanks! How's Mauritius?? 🌞🌞
@weasledee ooh exciting!! I'm just entering fw so bd'ing all over the shop and waiting for my ovulation!

BabynameEdie · 02/05/2018 06:59

@weasledee 🤞🤞 for you. I'm still in busy marathon FW! Hope you can keep busy for another week or so & that it flies by quickly for you!

@Lilimum4 fx is fingers crossed (at least I think it is!) 😀

weasledee · 02/05/2018 06:44

Hi Zarala he's prescribed 5mg of folic acid :)

I've lost track a bit, anyone else in the 2ww? I'm now 2DPO.... Smile

Cakelaur · 02/05/2018 04:59

@L1zz13 🤣😂🤣!! Too funny! Your poor DH!! That's real dedication!
@BabynameEdie @Boboelephant loving the marathon ladies! 🤞🏻 for O soon!!
Good luck with positive opks as well @YellowDaffodils86
Sounds like loads of you are gonna be hitting TWW together!!! I feel this is gonna be an exciting month!!!!
@hayleyfx seriously hoping you're not going to have to DTD if DH is 🤢🤮haha!! You'd both be hero's if this happened!!

Lilimum4 · 02/05/2018 00:35

@L1zz13 good to hear he is OK. Do u mind if I ask what fx is I'm still learning the lingo here

L1zz13 · 01/05/2018 23:20

Let's hope dinner at our fav restaurant and half a bottle of red settles his nerves! He's fine btw. No injuries just the mental what ifs! Fx my magic has worked!

BabynameEdie · 01/05/2018 22:54

@zarala thanks for the baby dust 🎉 and I think it sounds positive to wait until you feel it's all back to normal, so important we listen to our bodies and go with our instincts on these things. My hub thought marathon sounded great toobut now he's realising how serious I am about it all! 😂 even after a v low day at work & a long commute home!

@Boboelephant you can do it! 💪👊 but also go easy on yourself..I don't have a child to look after so have more time on my hands I'd imagine! But yay to the marathon! @Cakelaur would be proud! 🤸‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

@YellowDaffodils86 don't worry, we had a similar evening! All for a good cause! 🙈

I'm being so impatient with opks, only on cd10 (but in the past I've ovulated on cd12), doing three a day and there's nothing much at all, the odd faint line but nothing strong. Even though I'm doing it at all times of the day I'm so scared I'll miss it and feel all in limbo again like last month. No evening primrose oil for me this month though which I hope means I'm back to normal 🤞

zarala · 01/05/2018 22:21

@Lovemysparkle wow that is very quick indeed!!! And that's great news that all your tests came back normal! My last MMC was March 2nd and it took about a month and a half to get referred to the RMC and my first appointment isn't until mid June. I am so impatient!
Glad to hear you hen do was fun! At least you can drink and enjoy these things!!!! (Silver linings!)

@weasledee what a lovely doctor you have!!! Can I ask what dosage of folic acid he gave you?

I am just waiting for AF to show- hoping it soon and that my cycles are back to normal. DH can not wait until we're marathoning it! His idea of heaven! I told him we have to wait a couple more cycles and then we're on it. Just want them to be Normal again good luck @Boboelephant @BabynameEdie @L1zz13 @Curlypop and everyone else in FW! Hope this is your month!!! Baby sparkle dust to you all! 👶🏻✨

YellowDaffodils86 · 01/05/2018 22:09

@BabynameEdie i agree, better to know where you are at.

@Boboelephant yes it seems we are. Im hoping a positive opk will show soon.
At least we will have each other to keep sane during a tww, if we stay twins.

Poor dh has had a marathon work day 6am-10pm and i just broke the news that bd must happen. Definitely no fuss for ttc purposes only tonight I think 😂 who said romance is dead!

hayleyfx · 01/05/2018 22:08

@Lovewinemorethanhusband 100% feel the same way. When I first started TTC last August I wasn’t too bothered about how long it took, no OPK’s, no obsessing, just BD’ed as usual and not on a schedule. Now after the mc, I’m obsessed with everything TTC!! It was so much easier last year when I wasn’t desperate to be pregnant like I am now 😩
@L1zz13 haha oh I hope he’s alright but definitely gave me a laugh!! I asked my DP if his crohn’s starts acting up again this month during FW then can he just keep a bucket beside him and we’ll dtd anyway I’ll just look away if he’s being sick 🤣 well he agreed but I really hope it doesn’t come to that... 🤢🤣

Boboelephant · 01/05/2018 21:36

@L1zz13 TTC priorities hey!? 🤦‍♀️🤣 Hope DH is ok.
@YellowDaffodils86 looks like we're twins again. I also had watery cm last few days and loads of EWCM today but negative opks. Told DH it's go time anyway!
@BabynameEdie I'm impatiently waiting for him to walk in the door! Am knackered and would like to sleep but going for day 4. Looks like we might be doing a marathon too. I told him about your possible 27 days and he seems to think it was a challenge. Help!! 🤦‍♀️🤣

BabynameEdie · 01/05/2018 21:07

@L1zz13 😂 good to hear I'm not the only one..just slightly forced dh into it before allowing us to have dinner!
Hope your hubby is ok though?

BabynameEdie · 01/05/2018 21:06

@Lovewinemorethanhusband @YellowDaffodils86 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️ me too. Total opk obsessive at the moment but like @Boboelephant said, I feel it's better than wondering when I'll ovulate and then worrying about having missed it etc.

How's everyone doing? Going to try and catch up on the posts but been a bit swamped (not helped by the 🤸‍♀️⛹️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏄‍♀️marathon I'm currently on with DH and it's only day 3 🤪😂)
But just checking in to say hi xx

YellowDaffodils86 · 01/05/2018 19:57

@Lovewinemorethanhusband 🙋🏽‍♀️me too!
Impatiently waiting for a positive opk.

I have ewcm today from watery cm yesterday, but neg opk yesterday evening and this evening. Not sure whats going on, hoping positive is around the corner.

L1zz13 · 01/05/2018 19:40

@Lovewinemorethanhusband it's all I'm thinking about right now. So much so that instead of worrying about the minor car bump my hubbo had this am I'm worried worried wether he'll fancy a shag later!
80% I'm in my Fw!

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 01/05/2018 19:37

Glad it's not just me that's feeling like it. @laney glad things fall have moved forward for you xx

Boboelephant · 01/05/2018 19:16

@Lovewinemorethanhusband I do! I was so relaxed getting pregnant with DS and my first loss. Then as time has gone on I think about it all the bloody time. Although I'm a bit obsessive I think for me the opks are good as at least I know where I'm at. If I didn't I'd still worry, try and guess and probably stress more!
@Curlypop yep I'd dtd tomorrow too! Ovulation will probably be tomorrow for you.
@PumpkinPatch000 I'm ok thanks. Still here although hoping I catch a break soon. Fw is approaching so fx!
@Laney79 it's a good idea! Mental health is so important and this is a significant trauma we have experienced. I found the therapy I had extremely helpful and it pulled me out of the dark place I was in. You will still grieve your loss but it's important to have a space to talk.

KnitKitty · 01/05/2018 19:03

Laney79 I'm glad things have finally got going and you can start to look forwards again. You've been through so much! Well done for staying strong.

PumpkinPatch000 I understand you more easily fighting the urge to test. I'm not there yet, but I think if I get to the point of wondering if I'm pregnant again I might bury my head in the sand for a bit. I'd rather not know too early on. However, it is on my mind all the time and yes, hard not to obsess Lovewinemorethanhusband .

The period pains I had yesterday have gone away again but I'm feeling really, really fatigued so I'm pretty sure AF is going to rear her ugly head any day/minute now. Feeling really drained and like my body doesn't have a clue what it's doing anymore.
