Thought as there was 955 messages on our old thread that we should have a new one again, its very annoying scrolling down to the bottom.

{grin}

Welcome to our new thread girls.

Should we put our stats again???
saves us thread hopping, and we have had newbies.
I will try and copy some from the old thread.

Oh I am getting jeolous I want to test soon although I have no pregnancy symptons - we bdd at all the right times this month though. I am due af on Sunday how soon can I test do you think?

HellKat · 22/06/2005 10:23

Ohhhhh Maddy best of luck! Want some company that day? If you want, I can test then to instead of the weekend.

maddyd · 22/06/2005 10:19

Just been on baby center site and have decided to test on 29th as that will be 4 days before af due. So thats it 7 days to go

HellKat · 22/06/2005 09:49

meant d&c lol.
Wish I knew when I was due! have'nt got the foggiest.

maddyd · 22/06/2005 09:36

Dear Me Humphreys Corner, o you feel better now Its great tha you vcan come on here and have a good rant. Its only us that can truley understand. Your MIL has to respect your rules and boundaries otherwise it makes it more difficult for you. Bless.

I prob wont test for about 10 days Hellkat. Af will be due on 2nd July

HellKat · 22/06/2005 09:26

Maddy- it was in April. D7c was done 26th but had the 2nd one 3 weeks ago. Will you be testing this weekend to?
Humphreys- Want some Arsenic for her tea? . Poor you hun. feel free to vent it all! Always helps.

HumphreysCorner · 22/06/2005 09:14

Morning ladies

Just need to let off some steam

My bloody MIL is winding me up again-I work 3 days a week at present so she has my DD on a Tuesday. My DH goes to pick her up at 6.30pm ish but last night didn't bring her home until 8pm and she wasn't even dressed ready for bed. I have told her before that bedtime is at 7pm but it is getting later and later each week and I have had enough. My DH doesn't want to get involved so we are not speaking. I was so I tried ringing her last night but the phone was engaged for ages and we wanted our tea. THEN, he did manage to ask if his mother could have DD for the day on Thursday to take her to the Lincolnshire Show. It is our only full play day due to working so he said "I take that as a no then". He'll probably tell her yes to annoy me. Grrrrrrrrrrh.

Well, glad that's off my chest.

Love to all

maddyd · 22/06/2005 08:29

Im Fine Ta. On count down to testing now which is always exciting. Although i dont think ive caught at all. We did it at the right times but my Cm didnt suggest ovulation and my temp didnt go up. But we will see, must stay posotive.

How long has it been now since you MC???

HellKat · 22/06/2005 08:10

I'm great ta Maddy. What about you?
Yep infuriating this waiting game!
of Diddle too! Doubt we'll get away at all. But might have to take a break in the summer, even if it's just for the weekend.

maddyd · 22/06/2005 07:34

Have a fab Ho Diddle very Dont think we can get away till Christmas. Mind you im dreading christmas so may be its a good thing we get away so evryone doesnt have to put up with my miserable old face .

Have deceded those tests after 3 days cant be right. They reckon you start producing hcg as soon as conception happens, but so many eggs dont even implant so i can see that would cause alot more heartache. Best to wait to miss an af i would have thought.

Thinking od you Lottie Lou if you happen to be lurking. Come back soon.

How you doing HK, sorry you have no sign of af yet, its awfull isnt it all the waiting????????

HellKat · 22/06/2005 05:31

Diddle- Have a wonderful time. Enjoy yourselves, relax and have fun.
Humphreys- I was still getting hcg levels up until last week but that's only because there were retained products after the first d&c. So after the 2nd, it took around 2-3 weeks until they were totally gone.
Still no sign of af. Not even a twinge. Might test Sunday or Monday just to see what's going on.
How's everyone?

Xena · 21/06/2005 21:37

Diddle have a fab time!!

maddyd · 21/06/2005 21:35

Good Point Tabs, think i will e mail the company as ask them about that???

Tabs · 21/06/2005 21:06

Diddle - have a lovely break.

Lottielou - guess you might not see this now, but if you do then I hope the rest from MN does you good and you come back feeling refreshed (and hopefully pregnant).

Maddyd - not sure how the test can show +ve 3 days after conception, as you don't start producing hcg until implantation, which generally takes 7-10 days after ovulation? Would imagine they only work if you have exceptionally fast implantation.

Hello and happy vibes coming out to everyone else!

humphreys - how could i forget you guys. I think the hcg level question depends. If you have passed everything then it can take upto 2 weeks for it to go down enough, i got a bfn after 1 wk. But if you haven't passed everything yet then you're levels could still be high.
No harm in testing though, might just be expensive.

Trix1 - I won't be the first March person but hopefully will get my bfp next month.

Good luck to all those who are testing while i;m away. i'm going to miss you all loads.

Good afternoon girls

Gosh, it is soooooooooooo hot and I have been stuck at work . Oh well, my choice but have the next 2 days off.

HellKat and Trix1-how exciting-can't wait until you test .

Lottielou-look forward to hearing from you on Monday-take care {{x}}

Diddle-have a brill holiday but try not to forget us too much {{x}}

Spacecadet-try not to worry too much {{x}}

Incidently-how long after a MC is it until your HCG levels drop-I am dying to do a test but obviously don't want to waste too many-I want to save them for that heavenly moment (whenever it may be).My bleeding is non existent but I still don't think I have passed the last clot so perhaps I should wait. Sigh, it's all wait, wait, wait in this game.

Anyway, love and hugs to everyone

Trix1 · 21/06/2005 17:57

oh lottie its horrible waiting to find out for definate. Good luck though - I really hope you get your bfp

I am testing on Sunday providing AF has not arrived anyone else testing? Who is going to ahve the first March due date?

maddyd · 21/06/2005 17:54

Been in office all day, god it was hot. Fingers crossed for you lottie Lou, i know what you mean abut the limbo thing, it really is awfull. Its a shame the Doc or Dic as you fondly call him didnt do a blood test for you.

Went on E bay last night and bought some tests as i am now on day 16/17 so counting down to test and i found some that reckon you can get a accurate result 3 days after conception. Amazing. I got 3 for 79pence. Well Chuffed.

Spacecadet, try not to worry, i know its hard but at least you have symptoms which is a great sign

hi space - i totally understand why you're worrying, i think until you get past the first 4 months or your own milestone it will always be worrying. Don't worry it will be ok.
very pleased to hear you're feeling so pregnant, its not a bad thing.

spacecadet · 21/06/2005 17:03

Diddle - Thanks hun! I'm sure that a break will do me good. Well thats the plan anyway!
I hope you have a wonderful holiday, you make sure you get plenty of rest and enjoy yourself. x Have a cocktail for me x
DP and i have sorted things out now, i sent him an emial yesterday pouring my heart out so he called me, we had words over the phone as he was still being very insensitive but when i picked me up after work he appologised and agreed that he had been very out of order and that i knew what he had done wrong. We kissed and made up! So all is sorted now.
I am trying to convince myself that i am not pg but i cant help feeling that i am, now i am feeling that i have got my hopes up way toomuch and feel like i have imagined all the symptoms and the stress of it is keeping AF away! Well we shall see. I will let you know on Saturday morning what the result is and will text you now and again to see how your holiday is going, i wont text too much as it's a breal you need not me texting every 5 secs. LOL
I know exactly what you mean about knowing each other for ages, it feels like i have met you, feels like we went to school together or something. It's really wierd, good wierd tho, it's special!
Dont worry about me hun, i will be fine, i promise. and as i said if i do get a BFN or AF arrives then yes i will be gutted but i will get over it and get back to trying. I will be fine please dont worry about me just have a lovley holiday!
You take care sweetie x x x x x x x

Oh Lottie so sorry you're not right. Glad you're "dic" was positive, looks like there really is hope, oh good. i think he's probably right about the testing but its not that easy is it. I'd be tempted to test every day, then i'd be very poor.
Yes we're going tomorrow morning, just getting the washing done. Got loads to do. I hope a break from mumsnet helps you, i often wonder if its doing me more harm than good, keeps you thinking about it all the time. maybe not having it on your mind all the time and getting back to some normality will help you're blood pressure too.
Oh i feel so sad for you, you make sure you take it easy.
How is you're dp being now, have you sorted yourselves out?
Not defending him or anything, but it is so hard for men to understand us women and often they say the wrong things and come across as though they don't care, but its often just that they don't know how to deal with it. He'll come round.

You better stay in touch, will have my mobile on my hols and i know it works over there, so feel free to text whenever you want.

Its very weird, i feel like i've known you for ages, I'm very worried about you. i hope that you will be ok.

Lottielou · 21/06/2005 12:36

Oh dear i went to see my dic???!! LOL i meant Doc! Oh i have made me giggle! x

Lottielou · 21/06/2005 12:35

Hi All!
I have sort of been watching this morning but just wanted to let you know that I am not going to be on here until next Monday. I cant handle this being in limbo lark. I wish i coudl just know either way and then i can get on with things.
I went to see my dic this morning, he was so supportive. He said that obviously there is a great chance that i could be as all the symptoms i have point otwards yes. He didnt do a test as he didn;t seem to think it would be worth it as i got a BFN on Sunday and he didn't want me disheartened if it were to say BFN, he said blood pressure was up slightly so i need to calm down a little. He gave me hope, i asked him to be completely honest and not give my false hope. He said to leave it till the weekend, not every 3 days to give me a break from it. So am waiting until Saturday morning to test, fingers crossed i get my BFP then. But if not i am trying to look on the positive side that i can get back to trying again! I will get there! As we all will on here!
So on that note i am going to give MN a rest until i come back to work on Mon (well thats the plan at the moment)
I hope you are all keeping well and good luck to any testers and BD'ers.
If there are any devlopments with me i will let you know.
Diddle - Will keep in contact by text hun! When is it you go away? Is it tomo?
Love Ya'll, will still be thinkning bout you all! x
