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.

Hi Spacecadet - how far along are you now? I thought that they couldn't pick up a heartbeat properly until about 7 weeks, or is that not what they're checking for?

Try not to dread it - could be something to look forward to if it brings good news .

spacecadet · 16/06/2005 15:09

trix - i'm using the same methids of you, plenty of bd and tried ov tests last month, but to be honest once i knew i was past ov i gave up on the bd, which may have been our downfall, so this month i'm not using any tests and just bd as much as possible all the time, then testing when af is due.
welcome to our mad thread.

Hi everyone - hae been having a read of this thread and it seems to be the one for my.

My history

age 32
dh 34
ds 3.5
ttc 2 months then m/c in Oct 03 at 6 weeks started to bleed
ttc 8 months then missed m/c on 30/12/04 14.5 weeks beanie died at 10 weeks approx

Am currently on cd19 I think i ovulated on cd14 so that makes me 5dpo I think

I have never done temping only used ov sticks and lots of bding around day 14 but its now been six months and I am desperate for a BFP

LunarSea · 16/06/2005 14:24

HC - no, I only bled for about 10 days, and tbh after that first couple of days it was actually very light. BUT I don't think I had any blood left to lose by then! m/c was very sudden - from no warning at all to passing clots the size of a fist in a couple of minutes. And more clots like that every 15 mins of so for the next 12 hours until they decided that they had to stop me bleeding so much as the blood loss was too high (and my bp too low and still dropping) to let it continue safely, and did the emergency op to stop it and ERPC at the same time, with transfusions to follow. Sorry - probably tmi.

m/c plus 25 days now, so just waiting for af to put in an appearance. Though it does sort of cross my mind that last 2 pg's (can't really remember with the first one) I've had a day of feeling really grotty (much like today), which is unusual for me as I'm usually disgustingly healthy, about 10 DPO - so who knows.... Probably just wishful thinking though.

Actually I feel a bit better now - had a minor technical crisis to deal with (if there is such a thing as a minor crisis - well it was a fairly quickly fixed crisis anyway) which forced me to have to look at the screen and concentrate, and that seems to have helped a bit.

HC - pmsl @ offensive discharge, they do make it sound so funny. Hope you don't have any.

OP posts:
HumphreysCorner · 16/06/2005 13:21

Diddle-just like a normal period on day 2 with a few clots thrown in-I suppose it will keep going until the 3cm clot comes out. The nurse did say that if I have any offensive discharge (sounds like it will jump out and be rude to me ha-ha) then I will have to ask the Dr for some antibiotics.

I agree Lunarsea, go and out your feet up, you should be resting.
Humprheys - are you bleeding quite heavily or lightly? i bled for 15 days but it was only light, and i guess it might depend on how far gone you were, more to lose the later on you are.

OP posts:
HumphreysCorner · 16/06/2005 13:02

Oh LunarSea, Doctors, sometimes I wonder why they bother turning up for work? Are you still bleeding after your MC?-I'm on day 18 of bleeding so looking for hope that it won't carry on forever (don't mind if it turns into a proper period). Have an early night if you can and try to escape from work this afternoon. {{{HUGS}}}

On a different subject, why have I never noticed this CM that you all talk about-I must be walking round with my eyes shut. Perhaps that's why I never know when I am most fertile-I only have the dates from the internet based on my LMP. Oh to be so naive.

Cup of tea time me thinks

lottielou - i though you might be a bit down about it, understandably of course. we're here for you though, and fingers crossed you will get you're BFP soon, everyone is different and it may take a while for your BFP to show.
So sorry to hear about your dad, must be heartbreaking to have watched him go through it, my friends dad has just been diagnosed with it and is wating for test results to see how bad it is. I saw him yesterday and i just didn't know what to say.

Not sure where today has gone, can't believe its lunchtime already, i've been up since 6.30. Remembered yesterday that its fathers day sunday so will be frantically making cards with the kids for the next 2 days.

Was wandering if any of you could have a look at the following thread periods after mc There's a lassie needing some advice which one of you may be able to help with, Cheers Twiga x

Lottielou · 16/06/2005 12:16

m/s was supposed to be m/c

Lottielou · 16/06/2005 12:07

Lunarsea - sorry for the delay in my welcome to you to this thread. So sorry for your m/s and tough time you have been having. big huge hugs x x x What a bummer about your doc, sorry that it wasn't as positive as you had hoped for. At least you getthe blood tests (a small concellation (sp...lol?) i know but it is something hun)
Also sorry that you are feeling crappy today, sounds like you need to get yourself back home to bed. Hope you start to feel better x

LunarSea · 16/06/2005 11:58

Well doctors was a big let down - he basically said that as I'd been pg that was the end of the story - no investigations, despite it all taking so long and my cycles being mostly too short to be viable (typically 22 days, sometimes as low as 15 days). He did eventually concede that in conjunction with the m/c it was meaning the chances of success weren't good, so I am least going to get blood tests (14 of them!) to see if there's any reason for that.

Generally feeling rotten today - headache, shivery, a bit sick, and can't look at my PC screen for long because the glare hurts (am typing this looking at the keyboard not the screen, so excuse any typos). Am back in work but don't think I'm going to get through the day and might end up hving to go home early if it doesn't imporove soon. And I'd actaully got a rare night out arranged for tonight which might have to go by the board too. Grrr.
