Congrats on your scan winkygirl!

HolidaysQueen · 06/09/2007 16:02

Hi all -

Not sure if this is bit insensitive to post while iliketosleep is going through such a horrible time, but I just wanted to let you know that everything went well today.

The baby seemed a bit lazy, like me, casually waving a foot at me, doing one big bounce (I was worried it banged its head on the ceiling of my uterus ) and then the rest of the time it was clearly saying "oh, this moving about is too much bloody effort and i can't be arsed"

They pushed my due date back a few days - I'm 11 weeks exactly today so due on 27th March. It wouldn't surprise me if this lazy baby comes out as an April Fool!

Thinking of you iliketosleep - really just hoping for you that it is bleeding associated with the first baby and that this one is okay. hug hug hug

PS congrats on scan winkygirl

imjin100 · 06/09/2007 16:07

great news HolidaysQueen, i think it's always a good time to share happy news. Fantastic and you must be thrilled.

I keep looking online to see if Iliketosleep has been back in touch, I know we don't know each other but I feel like it's a real friend going through this. Ohhh, everything crossed for more happy news today.

imjin100 · 06/09/2007 16:08

oh and well done winkygirl, great news. Got slightly waylaid on the wierd men fantasies this post has turned in so didn't see your post!

glammama · 06/09/2007 16:28

imjin are you insinuating that Boris is weird? I used to quite like you

skidoodle · 06/09/2007 16:33

yay, congratulations HQ and winkygirl

as regards dates, the doctor I saw yesterday said she wasn't going to bother changing my due date as her measurement only differed from my estimation by a few days.

Now my chart says 13+4 but my due date is still 8th March, which would make me 13+6. I'm sure it's all academic and probably next March 28th I'll be going mad trying to force DH to have labour-starting sex with me whilst in a big red-faced rage.

imjin100 · 06/09/2007 16:34

I wouldn't dare, not after the bold and proud chat, or was it loud and proud!!!!
I was merely saying.....backtrack, backtrack....madly digging.....

aprilfoolsbaby · 06/09/2007 16:48

Can I join in too? I was on the April thread as midwife predicted baby was due on 1st April, but scan shows 30th March!!! I don't live anywhere near London but could have virtual cake!
Has anybody not told anyone their good news yet? We haven't told a soul though will only be 11 weeks on Sunday. It's been lovely having a secret and now I'm in the trap where I don't want to tell anyone in case we jinx it!

imjin100 · 06/09/2007 16:53

welcome aprilfoolsbaby, you might need to change your name now!!!! Nice to have you with us. I know just what you mean about the fun of secrets. We've now gone public, being 14+5 and that is great fun too, somehow you'll know when you're ready to share!!

iliketosleep · 06/09/2007 16:55

hi all can i start off by saying i am so grateful for all your help and support over the last few days you are all lovely and im honoured to have known and met you. Unfortunatly i wont be staying with you as babies heartbeat stopped on tuesday Me and dp are obviously upset but are ok and have decided to ttc again in a few weeks (just when i thought we had enough leos ) thanks all

imjin100 · 06/09/2007 16:57

Iliketosleep, totally gutted for you, so so sorry. You sound remarkably calm but I hope you're getting lots of love and support from around you. We are always here and send just the biggest hugs ever. Somehow post scan seems so much harder to take...just to say I'm sorry and love and hugs to you both.

aprilfoolsbaby · 06/09/2007 17:03

iliketosleep, I am so sorry to hear your news and can't imagine what you must be going through. Hope things work out for you when you start trying again xxxx

skidoodle · 06/09/2007 17:04

oh iliketosleep, how sad for you. I really feel for you and your DP - you've really been through the ringer with this. and all throughout you've been so positive and sweet

best of luck with ttc when you're ready to try again.

Come by if you ever want to. we'll really miss you around here.

iliketosleep · 06/09/2007 17:06

thankyou, and ill miss you all too, but ill still be lurking making sure your all keeping out of trouble xxx

3madboys · 06/09/2007 17:17

oh no iliketosleep, i am so gutted for you (((iliketosleep)) take care of yourself, will be thinking of you and good luck with ttc.

i had a miscarriage between ds1 and ds2, i miscarried, then got preg again without even having a period inbetween, the result is ds2

PurlyQueen · 06/09/2007 17:26

Ditto - I shall be thinking of you, iliketosleep.

glammama · 06/09/2007 18:05

I'm so sorry iliketosleep. Hugs to you and your family. Thinking of you.

cricri · 06/09/2007 18:10

Just logged on to catch up on the latest news... So sorry to hear your sad news Iliketosleep - thinking of you and take care. xx

iliketosleep · 06/09/2007 18:12

thanks, its "started" now which i didnt expect to happen so soon! so it really is a bonus and im going to take the waving at me on monday as waving goodbye i also have some lovely pics of it so i have memories. I do not mean it to sound insensitive but i want to ttc again asap and im actually quite excited about the fact as we have never had a planned baby

merryberry · 06/09/2007 18:28

i am sorry iliketosleep. you sound really sorted, which must be hard. let us know how you are getting on, just don't expect this lot to stay out of trouble (merryberry says, pretending not to be with them) as they'll be done for stalking boris johnson and shame us all.

derah · 06/09/2007 18:36

Oh, I'm so sorry iliketosleep. It must be heartbreaking to see your baby on the scan one day and find out a few days later that its gone. You're being very brave and positive, well done to you. But make sure you take time to grieve if you need to. And please keep us posted. Huge, huge hugs.

tori32 · 06/09/2007 19:01

oh, iliketosleep, really sorry to hear your news, you sound like you are holding together very well at the moment. I hope it continues and wish you lots of good luck ttc when you're ready. sending more hugs x

iliketosleep · 06/09/2007 19:04

im coping alot better than i had thought i would and ive rang everyone to tell them so i dont get anyone asking as that would be very uncomfortable

fitnforty · 06/09/2007 19:09

{{{Iliketosleep}}} and hugs to your DH. Hope the ttc works for you really soon and keep us all posted.
