Morning ladies

A PDA is a handheld computer, and my Birthday is 13th July.

Xena - i think you're DH has the right idea about Ikea. Hope you got all you needed.

Hellkat - good to see you on here, and i hope all goes ok on Tuesday for you.

Lottielou - i'm sure you run far too much, you make me feel very unfit, couldn't run as much as you do. Loads to do today as we did so little yesterday.

P.s re Humphreys- That is a horrid way to find out. With my last mc, I went to the hosp for my 10 wk scan (should've been 11+2) but the scan revealed that the baby had died 3 wks earlier at 8 wks. We had to opt for the d&c as it had been dead for a while and would'nt mc naturally. We felt the same way about wanting to get out of there a.s.a.p. I remember trying desperately to hide my face when I came out so no one would see me cry (did'nt want to freak out a packed waiting room).
As soon as af comes we'll be back to ttc!

HellKat · 05/06/2005 08:20

Hey Diddle - I love the Bullring, i cud live up there if DP wud let me! I cant believe you had never been until today! It's good that it doesn't feel like you have done anything, means you have had a chilled day! Good for you! When is it your bday? And what on earth is a PDA?

Xena - Glad you know what i mean about just 'being' i love hearing all the old stories they have and particularly makes me laugh wen they put the world to rights. LOL Sounds like you too are having a nice weekend!

Well this will probably be my last post until tomo. Will be up early in the morning to do double the run i did today! Yawn, oh well!

I'm sure I should know what a PDA is??

Xena · 04/06/2005 19:50

Haha Diddle I went on Thurs. I always have to go first and find out what they have got and then DH will come pick it up with me. He doesn't like to actually browse there

Diddle · 04/06/2005 19:46

xena - you're always at Ikea, didn't you go last week??

Lottielou - hello, sorry missed you being on here, we have been to the Bullring shopping, have never been before, its quite good. DH bought me an early birthday pressie so i'm just playing with it now (a PDA).
feel like we've done nothing all day, must get something done tomorrow. Very pleased to hear that you're taking it easy and having a good time.

better go and cook some tea.

Hi All
LL IKEWYM, me and the DC's spent the day with my Grandad yesterday it was lovely to see DD1 skipping along holding his hand and DS asking his opinion on everything. DS thinks he is especially cool as he has SKY TV which we don't.
Spent the day rearranging the house and will be off to IKEA tomorrow to buy some new furniture.
Lots of love to all have a great weekend xxx

Lottielou · 04/06/2005 17:37

Well quite a busy day fro me again, had a lie in till about 10am (bliss) and then went into the village for a little shopping and then came back ogt changed and went for a run, just over 2 miles through the lanes, but unfortunately it started raining heavily whilst we were out so DP and i came back looking like dying drowned rats! Felt so much better after doing it though. I feel i want to do it again now but have juts come home from another afternoon's shopping. Got some lovely things for the house, nic nacky things, candles, picture frames etc. Also got some lovely new curtains and duvet set for out bedroom. Cant wait to get home now to put them up!

Bug hugs to everyone and bigger hugs to you Diddle! x x

Afternoon ladies

Hope you are having a relaxing weekend.

Xena-after my scan I felt I had to just get out of the maternity hospital. Everbody round me were looking at scan pictures and I couldn't bear the thought of returning at 8am the next day and staying in for the D&C or tablets. I did wonder if anyone knew someone who had let things happen naturally and now you've said I am thinking hard about the next step. I know it sounds awful but if I let things just happen I might get to see the fetus but if I have the op or take the tablets I won't see anything.

I feel sad that I will never know the sex of my 2nd born but hey, musn't dwell on these things. Have been out in the garden weeding and digging with the faint hope that it will make things move a bit quicker.

Promise I'll rest later.

Hugs to everyone x

Xena · 03/06/2005 22:35

Hi HumphreysCorner sorry about what has happened I had a ERPC the day after my scan which when I am thinking rationally was the best thing to do. My cousin m/c 'naturally' and she said it was fairly awful and that convinced me to do it.
Have a good weekend and get some rest. Xena

HumphreysCorner · 03/06/2005 22:13

Evening all

Have been to my mum and dad's for tea and some TLC. Thank you all for your kind and comforting words-I don't feel so alone now.

RachelRog I am really considering phoning the EPU and having the D&C op, the tablets sound awful-might do it on Monday as still on holiday then. Anyway, have just watched Celeb Love Island-corny but a laugh and now off to watch Big Brother.

Nighty nightx

Xena · 03/06/2005 21:16

Eastbourne Diddle was thundering there when I left this morning but this afternoon was lovely and bright not cold enough for a coat.
I want to live by the sea.

Diddle · 03/06/2005 21:11

xena - rock pools and ice cream, where have you been???

Tabs - no probs, missed having you to talk to.

Evening all - sorry I wasn't around this afternoon and you were lonely Diddle! I had lunch with people from work, then picked DH up from the airport, then went to visit another friend. All achey and worn out now!

Xena · 03/06/2005 19:25

Hello all
Had a lovely day with my Grandad and cousins, DC's paddled in the rock pools and then we had icecreams on the beach.
Have a good evening/weekend

Its been very quiet on here this afternoon but very chatty this morning.

We have a newby - HUmphreyscorner, she says "Unfortunately I started bleeding on this BH Monday and a scan on Weds revealed the baby had died at 6 weeks, sac had grown to 10 weeks (?)was 12 weeks +1. Anyway, have opted to let nature take its course with a rescan on 15th June to see if everything has gone". Not good, shes has tough time of it, with far too many reminders of her lost pregnancy, e.g. maternity clothes arriving, mothercare calling, having to send back her maternity exemption certificate.

Cori is back, has had in infection as she retained some placental tissue but not enough to do a d&c for, so she has to pass it naturaly and wil probably come with her AF.

everyone has been a little down today, maybe partly down to the naff weather.

My roses are blooming, a few shoots have started to open now, hope its a sunny weekend so they can grow some more.

Glad to hear you're having a good time and nice rest. Enjoy your tea. missing you loads

Humphreyscorner - meant to say I couldn't bear to just wait so opted for the tablet and pessaries....but fortunately didn't need the pessaries. The worst experience of my life!!

Diddle - meant to say I am on cd22 today so I suppose period due with 3 days but my cycle before m/c was always 30 days or more so might get back to normal this cycle.

Lottielou · 03/06/2005 18:54

So have u missed me?

Lottielou · 03/06/2005 18:53

Hi All!
Afraid i haven't had chance to read down the thread, bit boy i know how others feel now, playing catch up, it's gonna take me forever!
Diddle How are you huni? Had a good day? Wondering can you give me a quivk run down on the days events. Dinner is nearly ready n dont wanna have to dash off and miss any posts.
I've had a lovely time so far today, got up early went for a run and then we headed into Norwich so i cud do some Shopping, spent a fortune but felt so good! Little (ahem) retail therapy does u the world of good!
Well this is novel being on here at this time of the day!
Big hugs to all of u, it's really strange i'm far away from home but feel further away from you guys! How wierd! maybe thats ur influence Diddle, i know i'm close to u in the Midlands! Hmm, i dont know! Well aren't i the waffling one this evening!

RachelRog · 03/06/2005 18:53

Humphreyscorner - really sorry to read your story.....exactly the same happened to me 10.5 weeks ago.....went for my 'routine' 12 week scan and 'baby' had stopped growing at 6 weeks - the sac looked the right size for 12 weeks and I was 12+2. Absolutely gutting isn't it. Felt like my life had been shattered.
feeling more positive now and hoping to get pregnant again ASAP. After my m/c all I wanted was to be pregnant again...and I amstill the same now!!! The only thing that will make me happy is a BFP!
Sorry again to read about your m/c and nothing I say will make you feel better....but it is so true that time fades the hurt and the tears dry up.

DIDDLE- my last two periods have been 25 days - but the first one was after my m/c and was not 'normal'. Going to hold out from testing till next Weds morning as a BFP will finish me off, me thinks.

Diddle · 03/06/2005 18:07

you're obviously nowhere near your computers unlike me, i have mine glued to my fingers, can't be without it.

It just wasn't our time, and our babies weren't string enough to survive. Next time it will be better for us all.
