emmsy's onwards and upwards part 2, more good new please!

annicam - i totally agree with you, I do feel lucky that i got one, GP is family friend so im sure that helped, although it shouldnt have to be like that iyswim. You shouldnt have to be £100 lighter just to know that your baby is healthy in there.

I am very scared today. DD (just gone 1) had D&V (better now, it was all night) and im terrified im going to get it and it will make me mc. I am just so scared and cant see this ending right even though last time was so different (think was CP or blighted ovum?)and i still ahve symptoms/no bleedng/cramps but im so scared today and keep crying.

Hi girls have been lurking - it takes me ages to catch up each evening. Just wanted to send all my love and wishes and hand holding to Jools, such a stressful time for you, I can only keep everything crossed that the news isn't bad.

annie good luck with your scan, though am you have had to go private - it is such a postcode lottery. I was refused an early scan too.

VJay hope you scan goes well too - I'm sure it will be fine, very exciting and finding out the sex too (we're going to wait, but I am very tempted)

I'm still on tenterhooks waiting for the amnio results - not until next week. This has been the longest wait ever, worse than the 2WW

Jools been thinking of you constantly, so sorry you are going through this immense worry, will be keeping everything crossed.. You sound very brave and strong but I agree with mermaid a real hand to hold would be good - is there anyone could go with you? Shall be constantly lurking to see how it goes so will be here for you when you get back.. Heres a big HUG xxxxxx

Morning Mermaid.. Awww BFN could be a tad early tho? Did you google LIT and how was the 2nd round of acupuncture? xx

Aww BFN for MLS too? Sorry sweetie, roll on next month then...

Neeko your granny sounds like a real wise old owl! Good luck for your testing, couldnt see what CD you were on on the list?! Im actually on 2ww & 2 days behind mermaid & mls but wierdly hoping not to be this month cos of treatment next fri, which is also when AF is due! Will def do early test next week to be sure! That would be ironic!

Upwards to the sky for Mrs Curly airmiles! Have a good trip hon!

Kate fantastic news on your AF! Def fate that you will be oV on wedding night!!! Gracie will be very tipsy herself if she is on 'drink patrol' for your DH!

to sleepy Annie and big HI to Doozer and Bakingqueen too!

Vjay very excited for you for tomorrow! Will try & lurk via pho to hear the news!

Barbie hope you're enjoying time with your friend - I know you're lurking you addict! xxxxxxxxx

I think thats nearly everyone covered now! Sorry if I missed anyone!

DH is getting his blood screen results today ready for my 'transfusion' next week! One step closer! Another weekend of decorating planned just want to blitz it so when PG again I dont have anything to do! Sis down from worcs with her new dog so her, mum, dh and me seeing 80 something aunty later so another half day for me!

Will be lurking for news on Jools & will post before I go! xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

well done Anniecam - mammoth post. you shouldn't be working that hard whilst pg! good luck for next saturday. you know we'll all be there with you holding your hand.

Naughty Gracie, put those tests away!!

Bad luck Gracie but there's still time for all 6 3 of you!

Apologies for mammoth post in advance.

jools Bet you are in pieces today, i so so hope it is good news for you, keeping everything crossed and i hope the time isnt dragging too much until the time for your scan.

mermaid and mls- Naughty naughty ladies, Day 24 is way too early to test, now put those tests away and dont get them back out until Tuesday.

Kate-Not long till your wedding now is it? Im excited for you. Double yey on your AF turning up as well, just in time for some gourmet bd on your honeymoon!

Neeko-How you feeling today? Anymore symptoms. Wishing you best of luck for testing tomorrow.

Doozer-Hope you get your BFP this month too, good luck.

MLS-Loved the pea story! Kids are so funny, the things they do that frighten the life out of us!
Keeping fingers crossed you get your BFP.

VJay-Bet you are getting excited about your scan now!

Mermaid-How are you feeling now hun? Are you still in PMT central? Hope the acupuncture made you feel more chilled.

Barbie-Have great time with your friend, what a sad thing to happen, losing her bf like that, poor girl. Id be devestated if i lost my soul mate, shes got a great friend in you though, im sure you,ll have lots of fun (and lots of hangovers!).
Have you heard anything fro either job yet?

mm-Enjoy being away from your stressful job, bet you feel so relieved.

BakingQueen-Happy symptom spotting on your 2ww.

Gracie-Fingers crossed for you on your 1ww now is it? I too was very 'windy' and had abdo cramps bout a week before and leading up to BFP.

Sabs-Hope your first day back at work goes well and isnt too stressful.

4ever-Thanks for advice re trying to find walk in EPU near me, i decided to bite the bullet and pay for private scan-£100, i so hope its good news.
It really makes me too, pregnant wommen who carry on smoking even though they know it can harm their baby, yet nothing bad ever seems to happen to them, not that i would wish a mc on anyone, its just so upsetting when you know you have done everything you can to look after your bean, yet you still lose it.
My SIL drank and smoked all the way through her pregnancy, even though i begged her to give up, and thankfully had a healthy DS.

Scorpio-Happy for you that you got your scan appointment, though sorry to admit am a tad too. It is such a postcode lottery when it comes to things like this.
I think all women who have had a mc should be entitled to at least one reassurance scan.

Waves to baby curly mollie blue and anyone else i have missed.

Ive got private scan booked for next Sat, £100 it is costing, i hope it is good news, i really do. Tried contacting midwife who had said i could have reassurance scan at EPU, only to be told she doesnt work there now, oh well i tried.

Pheww, off for a lie down!!

Jools - virtual hand holding at the ready. I'm nipping out for an hour at 9:30am and at 12:30 but I'm around all day apart from that. Sorry your DP has to work, sometimes it just has to be. You are a very strong person to be able to go alone, my DH wasn't there for my scan or operation (bloody work!) but my Mum came with me.

MLS and Mermaid I'm just as naughty as you two, day 21 (far far too early) and BFN!

Jools fingers crossed. Sending you a virtual hand to take with you.I'll be lurking today to await your news.

MLS It aint over til the wicked witch gets you. Think I'll be in your position tomorrow. Enjoy your spa day anyway. At least you can get in the jacuzzi without guilt

Hi to all you other lovely ladies!

jools good morning. Is there someone you could take with you? cos some real hand holding is good at times like this.
I know it of scant help but we are all thinking of you so much.

mls I just did my second test day 24 and nothing too.x

curly I can hear the mission impossible music playing as you write

Good to "see" you Curly - you have been missed

MLS - slapped wrist for testing so early give it time ...

Had an awful night - was awake from 2.30 to 5.30 with bad back pain and am shattered now - strangely, I'm still finding smells nauseating and feel quite sick and headachey but my boobs are flat as pancakes and not at all tender any more.

Got up with DP otherwise I'll sleep through my appointment. have sent him off to work as it is his last day of a fixed term contract and there is a chance of negotiating a new one - work and securing future income takes priority, so I'll make do with virtual hand-holding.

If I am still pregnant though, I will be absolutely amazed. Bleeding has been steady for 24 hours now - not heavy but not spotting either ...

I have also GOT to do at least 2 hours work to finish something crucial and hand it over before I go away on Monday. That is going to be hard.

BFN... aaaah well it's still only day 24!

Jools thinking of you today. x

Sorry I haven't been on much. I'm traveling constantly so can only lurk on my phone. I am thinking of you all though

Jools you may not have seen me but I've been holding your hand all the while. I'm so sorry you are going through this honey All we can do is hope for the best and that your little bean is hanging on and worrying you for nothing. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and whatever happens we will get you through this. xxx

Lots of love to all you lovely ladies and fingers crossed for good news. I'm flying tomorrow but will lurk as much as I can.

God you have a good memory. She also said the more you pee the less you cry. You can't do both at once - honest! Hope you don't need to try that one. Good luck tomorrow. I'm 99% sure of a BFN, but I guess you never know!

Neeko yes gonna test in the morning. Just like you I'm convincing myself it'll be a bfn. You have more of a chance I think than me, just remember what your Granny said!

Hi.
Jools sending you all my strength for tomorrow. Have everything crossed for you.

Kate YEAH to AF! So happy for you!

Gracie Can you predict what's going to happen for me now? Very interested in your non-symptom spotting. Here's hoping!

MLS Glad you're still in the game this month. Are you going to test in the morning? Enjoy your spa day. I'm convinced I'm not pg, despite constantly sore boobs and huge hormonal mood swings I'm just not feeling the vibe. Think I'm probably a nightmare to live with this week! I'm still planning on testing on Saturday morning though.

Mermaid speaking of being hormonal - how are you feeling now?

Barbie Any news on the job front?

VJay Good luck - I'm sure it'll be emotional but very reasurring.

I'm not doing very well with keeping up this week but I hope the rest of you are well. Those of you in stretchy pants need to relax and eat chocolate and good luck to all the 2wwers!

Evening ladies, apologies for not being on here since Tue evening, but have been working all day yest and today, and doing my usual trick of falling asleep with DS in his bed at 8pm and staying there fast asleep till the early hours of the morning.

Ive read through all the posts, and i promise i will do a proper post tomorrow, but i just want to say jools im keeping everything crossed for you for your scan tomorrow, i really wish this wasnt happening to you hun, i had a little tear when i read your posts.
Back tomorrow, night night all.

yeah jools we are all here for you no matter what they say at your scan xxxxxxx

Jools I'll be thinking of you tomorrow morning at your scan and I'll be on Mumsnet when you get back if you need a chat, hug or to give us your good news.

MLS yes that's just about it along with other IBS delights (not to be described on Mumsnet!) - ignoring it till next week - honest!!!

Great news on AF Kate

Well I've been sat in the Sun all afternoon, trying to ignore my crampy tum and aching back. All day has been like a light - medium flow AF, but with more pain. I am under no illusions and am not expecting good news tomorrow.

GG do your intestines feel like you have pockets of wind rushing around?? That is what mine have felt like for the last couple of days. Also boobs really achey but no fizzy nipples.

Btw I've not been had by af just yet... just a couple of days of heavy spotting which has now gone. There is still hope.

lol i like it gracie ive told him hes got a job to attend to that weekend so cant get to drunk . i make you dh to be drink watcher/counter /drinker then!!!xxx

Thats brilliant news Kate, you could have a honeymoon baby how lovely would that be x

I told you you would Kate!!!!! You'd better get DH (to be) some Weetabix, he's in for a busy weekend, he'll need the energy! Maybe Red Bull would be better!!!! How romantic to conceive on your wedding night! Better make sure DH (to be) doesn't get too tipsy he can't do the biz! (I'll perform a public service and go round nicking his drinks all day!)

Hi Jools - Just wanted to pop in and say I'm thinking of you. I'm so sorry that you're having to go through all this worry and I'm really glad that you are getting a scan tomorrow (your gp sounds lovely!). Will be thinking of you xxxx
