Hi! PFJ im glad your lurking ;) its nice to see your well and positive. Xxx

thistlelicker · 11/10/2013 15:12

Oh Man!!!! I feel like absolute shite today :-(

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 15:23

Sorry I haven't been around for a couple of days. Had a little bleed yesterday so I went to the doctor and he said not to worry too much as its normal. He said to keep an eye on it and if it gets heavy to go back. But had more bleeding this morning :-( only when I wipe (sorry if tmi) so not lots, but of course I'm panicking. I know it happens to a lot of women but just needed to rant xxx

CbeebiesIsMyLife · 11/10/2013 15:28

Nanny and all, I'm glad I'm not the only one fining it difficult to post. Pfj I'm glad you're feeling positive and you have support.

I think hearing of pfj's news (in a really weird way) has bought up a lot of feelings for me that I was trying to keep locked and hidden. I'll catch up with you girls at a late date, right now I'm just struggling with emotions and crap.

dobedobedo · 11/10/2013 15:31

Hi pfj It's awesome that you have such a positive outlook - you're an inspiration! Lurk all you want! :-)

bluestone sorry to hear you're worrying, most of the time a bit of blood isn't a sign of a problem. Just take it easy and look after yourself. I'm sure everything is fine.

impatientlywaiting · 11/10/2013 15:52

Lovely to hear from you ThePFJ, especially sounding so positive. Hope you keep popping in on us as it's not the same without you.

Ah Blue bleeding can be so worrying, although in so many cases is absolutely fine and normal. I had bleeding in a previous pregnancy and know how disconcerting it is, I couldn't concentrate on anything else, but my doc referred me to EPU for an early scan. Think it's quite common to get an early scan for bleeding so if you are worrying then I'd get back to your docs and ask for one.

It's probably nothing at all to worry about though so if you are managing to cope and not worry then probably no need to go back.

moominleigh94 · 11/10/2013 15:54

Lovely to hear from you again PFJ and loving your outlook.

FEED ME SEYMOUR Grin yep I got the part Grin so excited! Having Pizza Hut tonight to celebrate.... not that I've been able to keep any food down today yet. It's definitely all-day sickness now. Ice lollies are the only things I can manage :(

NannyPlum... you talking about puppies made me remember something. My housemate showed me this Facebook picture saying if the man was on top at conception, it's a boy, and if the woman was on top, it's a girl. She asked me what I was having and I had to very sheepishly reply "puppies" Blush

moominleigh94 · 11/10/2013 15:55

So many people to catch up with, I'm sorry if it seems I'm ignoring anyone's posts - hope everyone is doing well, massive Welsh cwtch from me for everyone :) (better than a hug Wink )

thistlelicker · 11/10/2013 16:03

Well done mooninn!!!

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 16:03

Thanks dobe and impatiently. I have my booking appointment on weds so if the bleeding doesn't get any worse then I will speak to her about it. Hopefully she can get me in for an early scan. I will be 9 + 6 when I see her xx

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 16:08

Congratulations Moomin on getting the part of Audrey 2. Love little shop of horrors! x

mumof2aimingfor4 · 11/10/2013 16:09

moomin you have just had me in stitches! Did your housemate get it straight away? I'd have loved to see their face! Congrats on getting the part.

Minions · 11/10/2013 16:15

Thanks for coming back PFJ, it's amazing to hear you so positive.

Well done moomin and hope you feel better soon. Same for dobe and thistle, here's hoping we all turn a corner soon.

We've got Canadian friends coming for thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. Wondering what they'll think if I only eat a tiny portion. Also wondering how I'll stay awake after 8.30pm!

Minions · 11/10/2013 16:17

Bluestone also meant to say that I hope everything is ok. Take it easy and look after yourself

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 16:24

Thanks minions. Ive been in bed and moved to the sofa and haven't moved except to go to the loo :-) don't think I could be more relaxed Hehe. xx

loopylou52 · 11/10/2013 16:25

Fingers crossed it stops soon bluestone - easier said that done but try not to panic. It does sound quite common.

moomin - 'puppies' gave me a much needed laugh! Congrats on getting the part.

My tummy cramps have got a lot better now, more just like a normal tummy ache now, though that could just be due to having just eaten my own body weight in grapes!

Vikks · 11/10/2013 16:31

Hi All, I have a perfect little 9 week old bean!!! The scan was amazing! Not a dry eye in the house.
We could see little arms and legs, good strong heartbeat and even its brain! The nurses gave us 3 lovely pictures.
We’ve told my son today, he just kept kissing my tummy and trying to listen to the baby (he’s 3 in two weeks time). It was truly magical, best day ever!
If baby goes to term we will hold the record for the lowest ever HCG level of 16 (previously 28) at my fertility hospital. That is why we were told to expect to miscarry so often. But today they discharge me, just the normal PG route now like any other pregnancy. I have my booking in on Thursday (9+6) and the fertility hospital even said if my 12 week scan was looking more like it would be a 13 week scan, I could pop in and they’d do me another. Very very happy here! Grin Grin Grin

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 16:32

Thanks loopy. Trying to keep positive but it's hard. Especially with the being so many losses on here recently. My heart goes out to everyone x x

dobedobedo · 11/10/2013 16:33

Brilliant news Vikks!! Post the scan pics so we can all go all goey over them! xxx

bluestone85 · 11/10/2013 16:35

Congratulations Vikks :-) x

Vikks · 11/10/2013 16:36

Bluestone Small bleeds are very common. Fx

Moomin Brilliant news on the part, well done!!

AliOh Happy Birthday x

Magpie So scan glad your scan went well too, have a lovely holiday.

Minions · 11/10/2013 16:37

Wonderful news Vikks, no wonder you're over the moon! What a special day, congratulations :)

Vikks · 11/10/2013 16:38

dobedobedo that sounds a bit technical....I'll have a go (or get someone else to do it for me Blush )

mumof2aimingfor4 · 11/10/2013 16:48

vikks so glad the scan went well :) your son sounds adorable. Im a bit worried about telling my 3 year old. I think she's going to get really jealous. My 9 year old however has been going at us to have another baby so she'll be pleased.
