split - your post made me blub a little bit :( but glad you and dh are talking :)am also glad that I am not the only one 'home alone' (apart from sleepy cat)

terrys - which opk are you using? clear blue reccomend early morning pee, but others reccomend afternoon pee. Some people pee twice a day as the LH surge can be so short.
It is a bit strange that my boss is also my DR but sometimes it works quite well as I can talk frankly and say what I want to happen etc etc....doesn't always work mind !

spilttheteaagain · 27/10/2010 12:52

Thanks girls Smile xx

digi how are you doing this morning?

spilttheteaagain · 27/10/2010 12:52

(this afternoon I should say! Not been up long, shocked at the time Blush)

TerrysNo2 · 27/10/2010 14:07

I am doing 2 a day now batteryhen Sad. I did read somewhere that OPK's don't work for some women so I am wondering if thats me?!?

digitalgirl · 27/10/2010 16:06

spilt that poem is so beautiful. am sure it would make a lovely partner with the photos.

Have come home early from work again to lie in bed and ride out the painful cramping that has started. Started spotting brown, so I think I know what's going to happen now.

Miscarriage number 3 Sad

I think we're going to keep trying, have thought about ordering more internet cheapies and my thermometer never strayed too far from my bedside. But for the first time this morning I thought about adoption. I was thinking how just because we can't have another baby naturally, doesn't mean our family has to be complete. We're a few years off that solution, but it's a possibility.

LadyGoneGaga · 27/10/2010 16:16

Hugs Digi. I'm so sorry for your loss if that is what it ends up being. But the fact you have had one before is hopeful that you will manage to have one again and I think it is good to have a Plan B in case things don't work out the way you want. So many children out there desperately need a loving family. There has been too much sadness on the thread recently, I hope we all can find our happy times soon.

TerrysNo2 · 27/10/2010 16:17

digi so sorry to hear that things have gotten worse Sad, I am thinking of you.

spilttheteaagain · 27/10/2010 16:18

Oh digi I am so sorry to hear this and wish I could give you a hug. You've been so brave going through this repeatedly and I'm sure it's got harder each time.

Be gentle with yourself, much love xx

batteryhen · 27/10/2010 16:22

digi - so sorry to hear that :( Please don't give up hope - I know that doesn't sound great just now -but you will have your baby xxx love to you and your dhxx

mousebacon · 27/10/2010 16:42

Oh digi, I'm so sorry hon. I know there's nothing I can say but we're all thinking of you. I really wish there was something I could do to make you feel better. Try and get as much rest as you can before the next scan.

Lots of love xx

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 27/10/2010 20:16

oh pants! :(

Digi, I'm so sorry that you are having to go through this. Here's hoping there is a positve outcome x

batteryhen - what a pretty insensitive comment from the nurse, lets hope that it doesnt ever have to come to that.

Orchid - what's going on with you today missy? Hope your chart is looking a lot more promising than mine!

digitalgirl · 27/10/2010 21:22

Sorry to see temps dropping ifatfirst but the good thing is your chart looks like a textbook temp rise and fall and you've got a good length luteal phase. So it's just a matter of time. And who knows what tomorrow will bring? Smile

battery I must admit your nurse's somewhat insensitive comment echoed with the thoughts I had after my last mc. Great that you're being referred early.

I didn't actually believe I'd end up as one of those statistics - apparently only 1 in 100 couples experience recurrent miscarriages (3 or more).

Where is orchid's chart? I need cheering up!

mousebacon · 28/10/2010 07:59

How you feeling this morning digi ? Hope you're ok x

Orchid where are you? Hope it's a BFP for you x

LadyGoneGaga · 28/10/2010 08:22

Rubbish stalkers you lot are...take a look at her chart Wink

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 28/10/2010 09:20

digi Sad Sad How you feeling today lovey?

And ladygg I was also stalking Orchid's chart. Whoop, whoop!! After almost 12m!

Orchid here's hoping you have lots of good pregnancy symptoms.

I know how you feel. After 12m of trying without success, DP and I conceived DD and it took me over a week to actually believe it.
Good news.

batteryhen · 28/10/2010 09:39

orchid Grin congrats to you - I hope your symtoms kick in nicely soon !

digi how are you today??

I have booked my first accupuncture session for saturday so at leaast I feel like I am doing something. I am also going to get dressed and go for a walk- its a nice day :)

My bleeding has completely stopped now which is so much better than last time ( I had the MC medically managed in march and bled for 9 weeks) at least I feel partly human again xx

morning to everyone else xx

spilttheteaagain · 28/10/2010 09:52

Whoop Orchid! Congratulations! Grin

TerrysNo2 · 28/10/2010 10:06

Yay Orchid and to Mr Orchid's swimmers!! Hope you are revelling in morning sickness and tiredness!! Grin

Does anyone else's temp increase if they have a few drinks the night before?? Mine has increased but not sure if it is due to OV or too much wine?? Blush

mousebacon · 28/10/2010 10:11

Eh??!! How do you know?

TerrysNo2 · 28/10/2010 10:16

Look at her chart here mouse - we are stalking her!! Grin

digitalgirl · 28/10/2010 10:19

orchid fantastic News!!! Congratulations!!! Really pleased for you after all this time.

Have had some more cramping this morning, but not as painful as yesterday. Dh looking after ds today so am doing my best to relax. Have trashy mags and can wallow in the bath for a few hours. Really want it to happen as quickly as possible bit worried it will take longer this time as I was further along.

LadyGoneGaga · 28/10/2010 10:31

Thinking of you, Digi. Don't want to haul you out the bath but they advised me not to have one while mc as cervix was open due to risk of infection.

TerrysNo2 · 28/10/2010 10:33

digi I hope you get to relax today and have some time to yourself. Thinking of you

mousebacon · 28/10/2010 11:01

Yay!! Well done orchid am v v pleased for you. [hsmile]

digi (((hugs))) still got everything crossed for you xx
