My verrrrrry faint line earlier gives me an edd of 27 august so I'm going to straddle the two threads providing I get a strong bfp tomorrow (which I should do!!)

Happy Christmas everyone!!!

Tutti, please hang on in there. I know it's tough.
I had a massive bleed in my first pregnancy, so much that I couldn't believe it could be anything other than a m/c. I was in tears as they did the scan knowing what they were going to tell me...but the sonographer found a heartbeat and all was well. Don't give up hope...
Thanks

Keeping fx crossed for you tutti, hoping you'll get some unexpected good news!

whiteblossom congrats on your early scan! I've just come back from my GP, and he's referring me for an early dating scan too because of my long last cycle, so hopefully I will get to see my little bean in 2 or 3 weeks' time.

Does/did anyone else who's already got DC feel even more worried about things going wrong second time round? I don't know if it's because I had such a messed up cycle and it took much longer to conceive than with DD, but I could swear I'm even more paranoid now than I was last time round! I think I need to look doing some meditation or something to chill out a bit more...

results areback....42

Sad Sad she said to expect bleeding to get heavier...

but said to try straight away if we want and to get pregnacare...

so so unfair....

rockin20s · 08/01/2014 13:41

Oh tutti I'm so sorry!!!

broodylicious · 08/01/2014 13:42

Wow this thread is so fast moving!!

whiteblossom just read your post re dh being weird. Do you think he's just a bit scared about it all, now that it's real? maybe he wants to protect you and is just worried about the next chapter of your lives together? If you've friends with babies, he probably is aware how nothing is ever the same when that little bean comes into the world and steals your hearts. Maybe it's his way of coping with stress? You know him best so maybe that's not it but just a thought.

Since my friends and family started having babies a few years back, I've started to feel a lot for the dh in the whole pregnancy/baby deal - they get the privilege of dtd of course but then it's all about mummy and bump. The birth is awful for them as they can't help, but hate to see us women in pain. At my appts last time round, dh was treated like a complete spare part, most times he was lucky if he got a hello from the mw and the consultant I saw for high BP at the end blatantly ignored him.

Apologies if the others have commented the same, I've not scrolled up that far yet, still catching up!!

So sorry tutti
Thanks

broodylicious · 08/01/2014 13:55

Oh tutti ?? I am so sorry xxxxxx I hope dh gets off work early to give you the love and cuddles you need right now and that I'm sending electronically xxxxxx

twinkbat · 08/01/2014 13:56

Stupid being on phone. So sorry tutti but at least they aren't asking you to wait. October bean instead then so x

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 14:00

tutti I am so sorry, my heart goes out to you. Your DH sounds really lovely and supportive. xxx

Hi broody I hope dh is being weird for the reason you and everyone else has mentioned rather than him being a bit cheesed off! It took me a year to get dh to agree to a 2nd but when he did he said he had thought it though and would not change his mind and was now quite excited so I wonder if reality has hit, as it only took a few weeks to get pregnant.

Infact dh just rang, didn't ask how I was nor did he ask how the scan was!! Im getting pissed off. He's off out now tonight, seams that was more important. off to fume.

broodylicious · 08/01/2014 14:16

Sounds like he's in denial!! I'd be fuming if I was you too AngryAngry We only started ttc dc2 last month too, was v surprised it didn't take longer as it took 8m last time. Maybe your dh is pissed off he didn't get to dtd more WinkGrin

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 14:22

well f*%k him Angry. Im not going to mention the scan, lets see if he even remembers.

Ive had a call from the GP to say my B12 levels are very high and he wants to see me to discuss...Confused no idea about that's about but did google and that was a silly idea so will have to wait till Monday now. Maybe its all the broccoli and meat Im eating Grin

I have booked in with the MW yay Grin I think its the 29th jan so alittle way off.

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 14:24

my new mantra is remain positive and plaster a smile on my face Grin

Very sorry to hear your news Tutti. Sending very big hugs.

Kt1991 · 08/01/2014 16:09

Hi everyone mind if I join? Just found out I'm pregnant this week with DC #2, still hasn't sunk in yet though! EDD is about 16th Sept, but I have longer cycles so unsure on definite date we conceived. Not had a chance to read back 36 pages! But sorry to hear your sad news tutti x

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 16:15

DH is home and didn't ask how I was until he realised I just might be in a bit of a mood with him, he then asked how my day was, I replied good to which he then asked "what have I done today" I replied "stuff" as I couldn't say anything in front of ds. He's completely forgotten that I had a scan today [anger] not a clue. Im fuming, what would any of you do?

I feel like saying, mmm Im sure there was something important to tell you but I just cant remember what it was- oh well cant have been THAT important eh!?

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 16:16

Welcome KT, xx

isitme1 · 08/01/2014 16:30

Blossom they will want to stop it. I had b12 anamiea with ds1 (well before) was still on injections and couldn't conceive until it was better.

Be kind to yourself tutti. Allow yourself to heal. I hope you get a sticky soon x x

whiteblossom · 08/01/2014 16:35

hi isitme sorry bit confused by your post. Im on injections for b12, but Ive been told my levels are too high. So I think your right they will stop injections I suspect. I didn't have any problems conceiving and going off todays scan all is well Smile
