I have the Air Hockey and Ping pong tables on order.
I thought it being the first day of term we should move in and make ourselves at home.

Digi what a worrying time for you. My only suggestion is to try and distract yourself as much as possible. A trip to the cinema or getting some DVDs in. They may help pass a few hours. We're all here for you in the meantime.

Viv I agree with Clareanna, just go for it and order some tickets. I'm willing to go in your place if you can't face it at the last minute. Grin

Thanks for the supplement recommendations. The zinc ones sound the best. A trip to the chemist is on the list for tomorrow.

Morning all,

digi so sorry you're having all this worry. I think the difference between 6+3 and 7+2 is probably tiny so would try to be hopeful. Big hug for you, hopefully 7 days will pass as quickly as possible.

I'm up at the crack of dawn, waved DH off on his travels again this morning so home alone Wink Looking forward to going back into to work today - secretly hoping it will take my mind off feeling so sick!

Not sure I recall feeling quite this green around the gills last time Confused was watching masterchef last night and even the look of fish made me nauseous.

viv get the tickets and see how you feel nearer the time, worst case I'm sure you'll have a few will ladies on here wanting to take your place Grin

Love to all, have a great day x

Magic8ballhastheanswers · 27/10/2010 09:37

Just quickly popping in, big hugs for Digi I hope the next 7 days fly by for and I am sorry your scan wasn't more positive. Here for you when you need to pass the time xxx

Had scan yesterday and twins both fine, growing well and no signs of TTTS which is good. Back in 3 weeks for anomaly scan. The twins were facing each other having a boxing match Grin

Magicsis having emcs this morning so will report back later (and catch up properly!!!).

xxxxxx

VivClicquot · 27/10/2010 09:38

Morning gang

Digi - Like everyone else, I'm so sorry you're having such a worrying time. I'll keep everything crossed for you that everything works out, but remember we're all here for you if you need a rant or a friendly ear.

As for my TT dilemma. I have to buy tickets anyway for my best mate who is on hol on Friday, so I'm going to get a couple extra and keep them as an insurance policy for this pregnancy - ie. if I have a ticket, I'm bound not to be able to go. Wink And if it means sending DH to tout them outside the City of Manc stadium on the day before, then so be it.

However, in other interesting news, I got a call last night from my sister who, would you believe it, is due to have her second baby three days after me. (Or 5, based on my NHS dates). Mental. She's already told our parents, so they're going to fall off their chair when I tell them at the weekend that they'll (hopefully) be getting two new grandchildren in a week... Grin

Love to all
xxxx

Hi all
So sorry digi you're having this worry - am crossing everything that all turns out well.

how lovely for your parents viv; they'll be SO excited. Another good scan magic that's a big phew.

Have been lurking a bit, but hardly posting. Partly because the halloween emoticons remind me that I've been on here a year with no blimmin baby to show for it [hangry]. I know that's not as long as some/many but I AM 134... [hsad]. And I've been really affected by the so sad stillbirth on the grads thread - Louise is so brave, I don't know what I'd do in that situation.

The private MC clinic I saw last week are doing some blood tests next week, and a day 2 scan and test next month. She did say I needn't not TTC in the meantime, but I think I missed the window as I think I might have ovulated on day10, and to quote hippy the troops were absolutely NOT in place. (Had pain and sore boobs for the first time ever midcycle.... almost as if the old body is saying C'mon let's get on with it, tick tock).

anyway must go and build duplo with DS...

I hope everyone's doing ok. Sorry to be so UnJollster

GetDownYouWillFall · 27/10/2010 13:23

Hi all, hope you don't mind me sloping in.

Am MC-ing today, at 5 weeks Sad Sad Sad

So upset and disappointed.

owlgiblets · 27/10/2010 14:41

Welcome Getdown and sorry to hear about your mc. You may also want to visit the lovely ladies on the main thread (this is a bit of an offshoot) - it's called something like "MC and trying again, pack your cake..."

Hope you're feeling okay soon - take good care of yourself.

hippychick66 · 27/10/2010 16:13

Hello getdown. Sorry to hear your sad news. Is this your first Mc, first preg etc????

I'm fairly new to this thread but they are a lovely bunch and very supportive.

I love your name by the way - how many times have i said that in my lifetime??

I am on day 24 now and every wipe is a nightmare (IYSWIM) Will AF arrive or wont she - ahhhh the joys of the 2WW Grin.

Thinking of you digi

GetDownYouWillFall · 27/10/2010 16:39

thanks owlgiblets and hippychick66 for replying.

Have posted on the other thread too.

First MC. I have a lovely 3yo DD. I naively thought this couldn't happen to me.

hippychick66 · 27/10/2010 22:33

Not stupid at all getdown. I've had 2 MC's this year and before that(10 & 7 years ago) I had 2 healthy pregnancies.

I never imagined i would have an MC because the 2 earlier pregnancies were so uncomplicated. AND I was 43 when i had my first MC so I really should have been more aware of the likelyhood.Hmm

You just never think it will happen to you - I totally understand. Take care. X

PrettyMyraMains · 28/10/2010 08:29

Hello loveliests !
Just a quick one before work, this will be my 9th day on the run without a day off and I've also bought a house this week.
Am I 'scuesd for me being all neglecty.[hgrin]

Digi I'm sorry the scan wasn't all good news, I wish we could give you a time machine too.
Feckin worse thing to hear I know , but hang on in there.
We are here to support you and I'll be hoping with all my might that its good news and everything works out for you. Xx

Getdown hello, I recognise you too from out and about .
I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you have lots of love and support in RL.
It's sad you've found this little corner of MN, but these threads have kept me sane ish over the last year.

Viv dear, dear ,dear. How very rude of them!
I'll be going to That London to see them and MIL is fx sorting tickets out.
Get tickets, leave MiniClicq wiv DH close by.

Jolls hoooouge hugs, now,now. You are not 134.
I have told you a million times not to exaggerate.Grin
When do you get some results back?

SnotTheball hope you're feeling better on the lurgy front and thing 1 & thing 2 are being nice and kind.
No wonder you have heart burn if they are doing rounds with each other.[hgrin]

How are me buds Moofdoof and Baz doing?
I'm missing you all. X

Update on moi, we are going to wait till after Christmas and New year till we TTC again which guarantees I'll be diffed next month.
I need to focus on work for a bit and I also want to enjoy Christmas eating and drinking what ever I like.
I had a 28 day cycle too this month so as my bod can't give me proper set dates of possible ovulation I shall be abusing it somewhat over the festive season.[hgrin]

Hello to Owl (love the name) Nicks , Clareanna Hippy , LittleMiss , Freezing
BatteryChook squeezes if you're reading x
Ooo, must shift, I should have known.....
I can not do quickies. [hsmile]

batteryhen · 29/10/2010 16:44

Helloooooooo ??? Where is everyone?? :)

Just poppin by to say hello to everyone...especially to misspritty :) who has been very kind to me:)
It has now been a week since my ERPC - bleeding all stopped, accupuncture tomorrow, trying to produce an egg for next week as DP is back at the weekend - trying to kick my body into just producing one teeny tiny weeny egg. How hard can it be??:(

digitalgirl · 29/10/2010 20:03

Just updating. Definitely miscarrying again Sad.

If I get another 60 day WTF cycle, I will hopefully have seen a consultant by the time the next egg hatches - maybe they'll advise aspirin or something for next time.

Round 4, ding ding.

bh bet you get an egg soon. I think you're body seems to be pretty in tune with your dh's schedule. Perhaps it's to do with you not living together?

batteryhen · 29/10/2010 20:09

Hey digi

I am so sorry that this is happening to you again. I am at a loss to reason why crap things happen to good people, especially those who are / would make lovely mummies. Am with you on the aspirin, I am seeing my Gp on thursday for referral etc, and might ask him about it then. I can't see that it would do much harm.

I am thinking of you my lovlie xxx

urd · 29/10/2010 21:25

Digi sorry to hear that, thinking of you

Magic8ballhastheanswers · 29/10/2010 22:06

Digi I was just thinking about you. I am so sorry hun x

clareanna · 29/10/2010 22:19

digi so sorry x

HeadlessLadyBoo · 29/10/2010 22:27

Digi and battery just wanted to drop by and say again how sorry I am.

Pretty a break sounds good to me. I'm not doing well on this round I'm still early on...

Got a copy of the letter my consultant sent to my GP, basically saying yes she's got this Leiden Factor V thing, but we won't treat it. Yet. I guess I need to have another MC before he'll consider it to be factor. Goodo.

Freezingmyarseoff · 29/10/2010 22:57

Digi so sorry for you and batteryhen too

and sorry to have to welcome you getdown

MrsPrtty wot's this about some shopping - aa new house that's serious retail therapy, I'm impressed

Right must go to bed, MN is good n'all but not much chance of some getting upduffed staring a pooter screen

Big hugs to everyone

batteryhen · 30/10/2010 08:14

morning everyone -just off to my first accupuncture session - I feel sad as I should be 14 weeks pregnant now - not off trying new things to get me pregnant and stay pregnant [sigh]

Have a good dya xxx

batteryhen · 30/10/2010 08:15

day even. See - I can't even spell today :(

littlemiss72 · 30/10/2010 08:41

Morning! Bless you batteryhen positive thoughts, my friend can't speak highly enough of the needle people Wink x

digi so sorry, just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you. x x x

Thank christ it's the weekend, I was close to sleeping at my desk this week. Blush See Dr yesterday morning, lovely lady bless her. Was straight on the phone to the consultants at St Mary's looking for guidance and agreeable to an early scan.

Love to all & happy weekend x

tigger15 · 30/10/2010 18:49

Hi Digi sorry to hear your news.

Battery - I did accupunture for a while it made me feel quite tired and relaxed but didn't do much good for what it was intended for.

RTD got me on friday morning. Am a bit depressed about it because it means I was 29 days last cycle and 25 this. I don't see how it can be normal to have such a wide spread particularly as I was on the hour to the minute every 28 days prior to the mc. Does anyone know how you go about arranging a private appointment with a consultant? I've never done it before and I don't think they really dealt with this at all the cycle monitoring that I went through.

CaribouMoo · 30/10/2010 20:19

Digi I am really sorry to hear this is happening again to you. I was holding out hope for you, its so cruel. Been thinking about you lots x x

Battery its old the TTC routines that are particularly depressing after a MC. I remember hauling out the thermometer and CBFM and just feeling so tired of it all - and it drives home the unfairness and sadness of what has happened. You have been doing so well though, hoping it happens for you soon x

Hope everyone else is doing ok. I've been feeling really yucky so haven't been on much. When I'm feeling better I'll be back as usual.

hippychick66 · 31/10/2010 21:22

Just popped on quickly and don't have time to name check, sorry. The old witch arrived for me on Friday - yawn yawn - i hate her Angry

digi so so sorry my love. It is so totally unfair. Will you be getting all the test? Thinking of you and sending hugs. XX
