Hope the titles ok

OK so I have a reasonably positive start to the new thread.
What I thought to be AF turned out to be a bad case of theruns
And so when I poas'ed last night I actually got a BFP

Very nervous about it, but happy too. I actually went to the place(shopping centre) I got the positive with my dd for good luck
My dh thinks I'm mad but hey don't they all
now if I can just get past the nine week stage without going insane

ALBS glad your finally able to admit your pregnant

Lissie glad your getting that referal at last
ilts sorry it didn't happen this time

Hello!

We saw a heartbeat!!! I was so relieved I cried . Everything is the right size, right shape and in the right place, estimated 6.5-7 weeks and EDD 6th September. The next 5-6 weeks are going to be slow and tough, but it's so reassuring to know that everything's OK at the moment and to have heard the heartbeat Thank you all so much for your support!

lilypink I hope you get your hcg results soon and that it's good news, it's very possible everything's fine despite the symptoms going AWOL (hug).

Mollie I bled lightly for 5-6 days after my ERPC, and I seem to have ovulated about 3.5 weeks afterwards (and got pregnant again...). I agree with kate that the ERPC can make it hard psychologically and emotionally - look after yourself and take things easy.

kate2179 CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Wishing you a very sticky bean

Right, I'm off to catch up on some much-needed sleep!

kate2179 · 16/01/2008 12:39

Mollie should have said that I think about 6 weeks after erpc is typical for af to arrive but everyone is different, no right or wrong answers xx

kate2179 · 16/01/2008 12:37

Hope results are Lily, thinking of you. Let us know? {{hugs}}

Mollie I wasn't sore at all after my erpc either, was really surprised not to be. I bled very lightly for about 10 days afterwards, it was a bit stop/start-y which worried me a bit. I am positive I ov'd 14 days after the bleeding stopped - was very We weren't ttc (though had one little 'accident') as we were awaiting blood test results. Then af arrived 13 days after I thought I'd ov'd which was 39 days from erpc, and 2 days ago I found out I've fallen pregnant on the next cycle!

It's a really tough time, I found that while the erpc was DEFINITELY the right decision for me it did make it hard to get my head around the fact that I was no longer pg. Symptoms lessened gradually but certainly didn't disappear overnight and my (.)(.) didn't go down until just before af arrived. Really hope this helps, it's a really shitty time as everyone on here knows. Take care xx

cece · 16/01/2008 12:08

Mollie,
When I had a ERCP I had no bleeding whatsoever. My af took 6 weeks to return.

Lilypink · 16/01/2008 11:56

Kasha I really hope the scan gives you good news x

In regards to me me me my symptoms have completley gone and my life line of bit of milk from boobs has also gone. So I am now prepared for the worst - again. Just phoned up for HCG level results - not it yet grrr

God this is hard work this, one thing to get pg but another to hold on to it.

Mollie I have never had ERCP but I think you can expect it 4-6 weeks after the procedure. When I have m/c naturally the first time was 6 weeks, the second 4 weeks. I think I am right in saying it comes back quicker after a ERCP though.

MollieMooma · 16/01/2008 10:45

Kasha-fingers crossed for scan, hope to hear from you soon x

Can I ask some advice please, I had my ERCP yesterday, feeling fine today hardly any soreness or pain. Also hardly bleeding at all today, not sure if that's right or if I'm just lucky. Also wanted to know when should I expect my next AF? Would be due 26th Jan normally, should I expect something then?

TJuice · 16/01/2008 08:42

good luck kasha - everything crossed for you xxx

hope everyone is doing okay.

i hope you're preggers this month, ronshar

Flumpytigger · 16/01/2008 08:32

Good luck for today Kasha. Thinking of you Kasha.. pop back in when you can.

kate2179 · 16/01/2008 08:25

cricri · 16/01/2008 07:28

Oops, that should be Kasha obviously!

cricri · 16/01/2008 07:27

Hope all goes well for you today Kahsa - will be thinking of you.
Hope everybody else is OK too.

Emmsy1 · 15/01/2008 22:55

Good luck tomorrow kasha please post asap to let us know! x

sfxmum · 15/01/2008 22:51

good luck for tomorrow Kasha

cece · 15/01/2008 22:44

Good luck for tomorrow Kasha.

Brown blood is good though (iyswim) as it is old blood.

KashaSarrasin · 15/01/2008 22:07

Hello everyone

lilypink glad to hear things are looking up, I have my fingers crossed for you.

cece sorry about AF showing up, you've been through so much I hope next month is lucky for you

Good luck to everyone ovulating at the moment and hope you get your DHs to cooperate

I have my scan tomorrow morning, so hopefully I should know one way or the other how things are going. The waiting has been driving me absolutely crazy. No more red blood, fortunately, but still getting some brown spotting, and the nausea comes and goes every few hours. Plus poor DS has a fever and is a bit miserable at the moment so it's not been a great few days. I'm so nervous about tomorrow, I've got no idea whether it's going to be good or bad news, not sure how I'm going to cope if it's bad news.

ronshar · 15/01/2008 20:46

Damn it I am already trying to talk myself into being pregnant this month. I normally manage to wait until at least CD22. I am only CD16.
I am officially a crazy looney who probably shouldnt have another child due to instability. Although I am not quite as bad as Britts yet.

ronshar · 15/01/2008 11:24

Amen Flumpytiger.

TJuice · 15/01/2008 10:18

cece - sorry you have AF but i guess its a good sign that your body has recovered so fast. i was also convinced that i wouldn't have one, but i did have a very light one and although depressing, i tried to take it as positive that things were getting ready for the next time. fingers crossed that you will get the bfp as soon as you and your body are ready. big hugs to you. xxx

scully · 15/01/2008 10:15

that's funny flumpy, know what you mean though
we've been busy trying this week, so will see what happens in 2wks time
congrats to everyone who has had a positive result this week, great news

Flumpytigger · 15/01/2008 10:07

Urgh one last thing from me... why do men fail to understand that to conceive you actually have to have sex once in a while? Do they really think their boys are superhuman or something?

All this rubbish about women never wanting sex and always having a headache etc... hmmmmm well it's certainly role reversal in our household!
dh keeps asking me if af has arrived and when I say no, he gives me that look as if to say 'you could be pregnant?' I'm like 'err no, unless it was the immaculate conception!'

Sorry, rant over

Flumpytigger · 15/01/2008 10:00

Hi ladies,

Thanks for all your kind welcomes.

Lcy its reassuring to know you experienced similar to me with your cycles, I just hope I can get a bfp as quick as you!
Unfortunately I defo not preg because I've done 4 tests over the past 60 days, ever since I decided af was defo late.. Now day 87 & still no joy. Af has gone on hols but how do I get her back again??

Fab news alittlebitshy, so pleased for you and it must be such a relief!

Lissie, I've lurked on lots of different threads and it's so great to hear that you're finally getting the treatment you deserve - fingers crossed this is your year

Congrats lilypink, heres to a sticky one. Milk out of boobs sounds like a big fat positive sign/symptom to me!

Verso, I can relate to how you are feeling, only I think my body is telling me I'm still not ready hence why af has completely disappeared. Even though I may still OV I just haven't felt like myself since mmc in Oct. But it's like lcy says your chances of a healthy baby are high and although extremely daunting at the moment it will be woth it in the end.

Sweetkitty, I'm so glad to hear your little one is doing so well - you give us all hope

Cece I'm so sorry to hear about your beautiful little girl Hope, such a lovely name for one so precious.
It is so hard when that first af turns up... big hugs my darling.

There's so many more of you on here and so I just wanted to say; to all those going through a mc I hope you're all hanging in there, congrats to all of those with bfps (heres to sticky ones) and to all those ttc heres to some sticky bfp's VERY soon!!

xx

Lilypink · 14/01/2008 21:12

Hello all, I echo Ele08, let this be a lucky year for us all - we bloody well deserve it.

I phoned EPU and they do not see ladies untill 6 weeks but they suggested I call GP who can do the 48 hr HCG blood test checks. However I decided against it as I knew for sure what was going on and decided I didn't need to go thro tests to confirm.

But having just prodded my boobs and milk came out I think I might ask tomorrow for the tests as now I am getting hopeful. So I think for my sanity I need to know.

I can't believe I am only 4+1 weeks and it has been a rollercoaster already - spent yesterday in tears and today maybe a glimmer of hope?

Ele08 · 14/01/2008 19:07

Hopefully we all will have some good luck this year.

Ele08 · 14/01/2008 19:05

Hi congrats to all the bfps

cece sorry to hear your af turned up. Im sorry to herewhat happened to your precious daughter Hope

I had a mc around the same time bleeding started 14/12 and i had a D and C on 16/12 and ive no af yet but pg test today not positive so i think af is coming. I just want it back so my body gets back to normal.

cece · 14/01/2008 18:51

Well looks like Af has turned up this afternoon. Only 32 days since we lost our lovely baby Hope. I can't believe it has come so soon... was convinced I would be pg again.

At least I will have some idea of when I ovulate next month
