stac great news! I was getting a bit worried as we hadn't heard from you (my turn!). Its lovely to see them, isn't it? Thats put a smile on my face for the rest of the night xxx

stac14 · 06/01/2010 20:21

Hey ladies
sorry it took so long for me to get on have been at my aunts. The scan went great baby was waving away and wriggling about. They gave us a bit of a scare though as it looked like the membrane of the womb was stuck to its back so 2 sonographers checked us over, luckily it was just being a lazy wee bugger and lying down. Hearts beating strongly and skull has formed as it should. Have pis so will get it uploaded as soon as I can. Thanks for all your support I was so worried as soon as she said there was a heartbeat I cried what a sap. Not caught up on the thread yet so will do that then get back to you xxxx

I must have been typing as you posted jobo. I was impressed at 24mm my last follicle that popped (2nd round clomid) only got to 17mm so i'm hoping it's a good sign! They said theyll discuss what to do if i haven't ovulated by tomorrow as it'll be CD23 (i think )

popsy1 · 06/01/2010 17:50

I feel like that fairy. We Bd ever day or ever other day, cd 9 onwards and the bloods ive had done say i'm ov, just seems its that final hurdle. As my hubby keeps saying "we just gotta hit that target!"
But its not for all the trying. Heres to BFP's all round hun

bady dust with Steaming hot choc with cream or marshmellows??

jobobpip08 · 06/01/2010 17:48

hi pink as I said before, everyone is lovely here, I have been made to feel very welcome.

*peju and fairy keep well wrapped up and hope you're both feeling better soon

nice to see you again popsy the follicle sounds excellent, I had the trigger jab but even after when I should have ovulated I still had some twinges, so it all sounds normal. If you think its a inch big all round, its got to be a bit sore after it 'pops'!

stac c'mon, stop keeping us in suspense

Fairygodmother1 · 06/01/2010 17:42

Pops I know exactly what you mean. I even dreamt I bled last night so I'm now thinking my body is telling me I wont get a BFP this month. Don't know how we've missed it if I'm not!

Thanks for hot choc - feeling sooooo cold!

Hello all. I've a bito to catch up on as i haven't been on for a few days.
stac i hope your scan went well, it suddenly makes it all seem very real, doesn't it. It always amazes me!
Hi pink i switched over from other thread for the same reason, it was so quiet, its always busy on here.
jojo is it a scan your having or the Hycosy? I had the hycosy earlier in the year, defo need a sanitary towel, i felt ok straight after but then a little woosy so i'd take someone with you. My friend went on her own!!
peju hope you enjoyed your duvet day.

Lots of snow but my school still opened:-( Got stuck in snow going and stuck on ice on our hill coming home!!
My scan went well on Monday, going back tomorrow, follicle had grown to 24.3mm which was good. Just go to wait for it to pop. Cd22 today. Felt sharp pains monday evo so thought i had popped then but had back ache yeaterday and today and a few sharp pains left side earlier. I give up working out what my bodies up to!! Will wait and see what the scan says!!

Hope you are all ok

Welcome Pinkali & Jojo - a great thread. Jojo I had the scan done & didn't feel a thing other than a bit slimey afterwards. Showed all my tubes were clear.

Well its really snowing here so possible snow day tomorrow!

Stac how was scan?

peju keep wrapped up! I'm feeling well rough with a pain at the bottom of my left lung & sinuses swollen up so my head is really starting to hurt! Felt like i was going to come on all day - niggling aches & heaviness. Seems to have eased since i got home though!
fingers crossed Ven that this is your month!

Hi all
Stac - i know what u mean i am going thru same thing but i guess it is natural. but like jobo says dont worry you were fine on your earlier scans. Let us know how it went today - if you got there thru the snow!

I went docs and am now waiting for an early scan date - think i am about 8 weeks.
Feeeling rough at mo with flu so am off work on a duvet day!! best time for it being so cold!!

Pinkali37 · 06/01/2010 11:13

jobobpip08 · 06/01/2010 10:44

Hi jojo this is a great thread - everyone is so lovely. Hopefully you'll get some answers next week after your scan, knowledge is power!

Hoep everyone is safe and warm. Snow day here - altho the roads are clear. I think it will be snow day tomorrow as well, so much for having the wii fit all to myself! I'm sitting here freezing eating yogurt and grapes - must try and find something warmer to eat for breakfast, not really into porrige and I'm trying to stay off wheat and dairy. Its not easy! Shame they haven't got a 'brrr' smiley for today!

stac14 · 06/01/2010 10:41

Thanks jobob I am a terrible worrier, probably more so as this is a long awaited baby as you will all understand. I just want to see everything is ok then I should settle down

Hey jojo try not to worry about scan hun, better to know whats going on. Remember pain killers and a sanitary towel (what goes up must come down, soz tmi) How was your xmas and new year?

Hello everyone,

Glad stac showed us this thread, the other was getting a bit quiet!

Got my scan on tubes next week, slightly dreading t but also looking forward to it in a wierd way?!

Hope everyone is ok, heres to 2010! xx

jobobpip08 · 06/01/2010 07:59

stac if you've had early scans and they were happy with those then I'm sure this one will be fine. With my m/c this summer, he was concerned about the small size at the 6 week scan so I wasn't too surprised when I started to m/c. Blighted ovum - the egg doesn't develop at all i.e. no baby but the sac does. YOU HAVEN'T GOT THIS!! DON'T WORRY! Good luck today, can't wait to hear about it.

ven you only need one! Sounds like they didn't tell you too much? The IUI is nothing to be scared of, around ovualtion they put a tiny catheter through your cervix and squirt up the sperm, so the sperm are in a really good place to fertilise the egg. DOn't know if you saw the tv prog 'The Great Sperm Race'? Gives you a really good idea of the marathon journey sperm have to go through to reach the egg!

Little snow here, more predicted so no school. Knew I should have done my shopping yesterday - we're already getting empty shelves!

Venetia2 · 06/01/2010 07:08

Good luck for today stac. Hope you have less snow than we do, am stuck at home for the day today.

fairy I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you too, the symptoms sound really positive.

Hi to everyone else too, had my scan on Monday, one follicle, looked like it was big enough to burst (don't know how big) so keeping fingers crossed. Now the long wait to know whats happened either way. Got IUI meeting letter through for mid feb but really hoping I can do something to avoid it as am scared!

Frosty baby dust to all!

millymolly83 · 06/01/2010 00:12

hi all still not got af yet hows is everone sorry to hear that stac about your niece

Clure · 05/01/2010 22:56

stac - try to relax hunny, you'll be just fine ok? I'll stop being bossy now

its snowing here now!!!

stac14 · 05/01/2010 22:41

We had an early scan at 7+4 and 8+4 which showed the baby and its heartbeat, so do you think it will be ok? I am so scared xx What is a blighted ovum? xx

OP posts:
jobobpip08 · 05/01/2010 22:28

stac I barely had symptoms and they found it was a blighted ovum (where the egg doesn't actually develop at all but the sac does) so as you've got symptoms that sounds like everything is going as it should. xxx
p.s. Your gran did better than me, i never met him!
