@Si1ver. I'm sorry but I could help but laugh at that image. The poor midwife knee deep in blood, poop and placenta, all while a dog is licking her foot 😂😂

@Milknosugar1. We took the train to my induction lol and if we end up going to the same hospital again then I should imagine that's what we'll do again. My mum drove over to bring us home. I'll never forget it, it's was during the heat wave we had in July 2016 - it was a hot drive home!!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 27/06/2018 13:05

@SoozC. I'm sorry. My EDD was incredibly painful. It will soon be coming up to when I had my medical management too. Literally the most heartbreaking night I've ever been through. It's ok to be sad though as well as grateful ❤❤

LimpLettice · 27/06/2018 13:32

Hugs Sooz and boo to your head. Head, not your actual head. Ykwim...

My first EDD was in March, and horrible, despite being upduffed. Next one was in May, and then the last one will be 5 weeks before this one is due, and it never stops being manky. DD had sports day yesterday, and realised that I got my July bfp on sports day last year which was a bit bittersweet. So grateful for this pregnancy progressing so far, but it is a jolt to remember. Trying to be positive and keep looking forward but it is hard.

Milk I am unwoo/hippy it is a joke, until it comes to childbith etc. then it is all get me to my happy place, no intervention, breastfed for years, proper lentil weaver. You are right I think, the science does make sense, as does that feeling of some control - I hated being told where to lie and the stirrups crap last time, I wanted to be standing up, which isprobably why the insistence on the MLU this time.

Ty Si1ver and LimpLettuce I'm just so dead set on them telling me tomorrow that it's all over again, I can't imagine them telling me that all is okay and I've got a healthy baby in there :(

LimpLettice · 27/06/2018 18:54

All you can do is remember that today it's ok, Uterus. I know it's tough. Hugs.

I'm getting very paranoid about lack of movement this week. I'm only 19 weeks, it's mad I've felt so much already anyway and midwife says movement is very unreliable before 24 weeks, but it's niggling and I'm pretending it's not. Ticking days down til Monday's scan.

FuckMyUterus · 27/06/2018 20:21

It's really tough... What do I do if they say my baby's died again tomorrow? How do I keep picking up and starting again? Is there a limit?
Have my fingers crossed for you that everything is okay :)

SoozC · 27/06/2018 21:48

Lit my candle and had a little cry. Fucking sucks. I didn't realise quite how upset I'd be once I actually took a moment to think about what happened. I guess I've repressed my feelings since about December.

I'm sorry so many Yammers have suffered this too but selfishly I'm also glad: you guys helped me last November and you're helping now. I just wish no-one ever had to go through this.

I want to go to bed but am finding it hard to blow out the candle! Blimey, all this and it was probably a blighted ovum so no actual baby anyway. sigh

sooz it doesn't matter what it was or how far gone you were, if you feel better for remembering the day then that's all that matters. I hope you feel better! Well it's here. Scan day! I'll be along later to either shout to you all that everything is fine, or to excuse myself from the thread and stuff back off to the conception boards. Please cross your fingers for me 🙏

LimpLettice · 28/06/2018 07:18

Good luck Uterus hope all is perfect.

Totally get you Sooz. Hope you found some peace enough to sleep 😘

WonkyDonk87 · 28/06/2018 08:26

How are you feeling today Sooz? Hope you had a restful night.

Good luck Uterus - we're all rooting for you. Hope the time passes quickly, let us know how you got on.

Gorgeous day again for us in sunny Cornwall - it's my birthday and I'm covered in acne, full of hay fever that I can't treat and I can't have a drink to celebrate. Thank god for caterpillar cake Grin

Si1ver · 28/06/2018 09:01

Good luck today Uterus

LookingAtTheStars89 · 28/06/2018 09:03

@WonkyDonk87. 🎉🎉🎉 Happy Birthday 🎉🎉🎉 Oooh is it M&S caterpillar cake?? M&S do the best birthday cakes. I'm a bit of a cake conesiour (not sure if that's spelled correctly) and have yet to find better.

Sorry about your acne. You are a PCOS'er aren't you? That's one of the massive ball aches with pcos the damn spots. Mine aren't too bad but I get terribly oily skin. When I've had my phone against my face for a me cry of time it looks like it's been in the chip pan lol 😂

LookingAtTheStars89 · 28/06/2018 09:04

@FuckMyUterus. Fingers tightly crossed x

Si1ver · 28/06/2018 09:21

Sorry! Happy birthday lovely Wonks

My birthday this year was the day after transfer, so I was PUPO. Lots of people gave me gin as they didn't know. It was a terrible birthday.

WonkyDonk87 · 28/06/2018 09:37

It is indeed a M&S caterpillar cake! Although Tesco do a close second (Asda one is crap). No PCOS, just crap skin. I've ordered one of those Carbon Theory bars which will be home when I get there, so pinning my hopes on that!

S1lver Gin doesn't go off at least. We bought a load of prosecco and naice red wine in the Tesco 25% off deal. Which DH and my sisters are working their way through this week Angry

Si1ver · 28/06/2018 09:58

The birthday gin has all been put in a cupboard and my husband instructed not to touch it. I caught him looking longingly at it the other day.

LookingAtTheStars89 · 28/06/2018 10:02

@WonkyDonk87. Yes! I had some of an ASDA one the other day - hated it.

@Si1ver. I'd be giving DH evils if I caught him eyeying up my booze 😂 I'm looking forward to my 30th in March - fingers crossed baby will have arrived safely and I can have some long awaited alcohol and coffee! I've not had either for a long long time now!

DoAsDreamersDo · 28/06/2018 10:42

Happy birthday Wonky enjoy your cake x

Thinking of you today Fuck xx

I hope that you are feeling ok today Sooz

FuckMyUterus · 28/06/2018 11:23

Everything is absolutely fine 😊 9 weeks today so gotta go back on the 23rd for a 12 week scan ❤️

Si1ver · 28/06/2018 11:28

That's great news Uterus you must be feeling so much better.

WonkyDonk87 · 28/06/2018 11:31

Great news @FuckMyUterus! 🎉🎉🎉

LimpLettice · 28/06/2018 11:37

Wonderful Uterus, huzzah!

Happy birthday Wonks, eat extra cake to make up for the booze. I note Asda have started selling a 0.5% gordons mixer which I may be tempted to try this weekend if the weather says as good as it has been. I always think of those mad women who time pregnancy so carefully to avoid the summer are mad - it rains on my birthday every year (late Sept) and DD is snowed on - how lovely to have such glorious sunshine on your birthday. Bit jel :)

FuckMyUterus · 28/06/2018 11:37

Maybe a name change is in order 😉
