OMG aurorasky I am soooooo very sorry. Did you have it confirmed by a doctor or do you 'just know'. I feel for you. Sending you huge hugs xxxxx

Teds77 · 20/12/2010 15:51

Oh aurorasky am so sorry to hear that. You sound immensely sensible and positive about it but three mcs must be very tough indeed Sad Do hope that 2011 brings you happiness and a successful pg xxx

RugbyWidow7 · 20/12/2010 16:02

aurorasky I'm so sorry to hear that. What rotten luck.

Wishing you the best of luck for 2011!

ravenlocks · 20/12/2010 16:11

I'm really sorry aurorasky. How heartbreaking just before Xmas too. Sending you lots of hugs and positive thoughts. Hope the docs will give you some support and advice with this being your third m/c. Can't imagine what that is like.

Make sure your family and friends look after you!

MrsP81 · 20/12/2010 19:03

I'm so sorry aurorasky. All the best for future buses, I'll probably see you there.

Still got my fingers crossed for you teds and raven, it's not over til its over. Xmas Smile

aurorasky · 20/12/2010 21:43

Thanks everyone, KLou, I started heavy bleeding yesterday and this morning I actually saw that I'd passed it :(.

Teds I am being sensible at the moment but have been waking up crying at 4am for days now.This time last year I spent a week in hospital on I.V. antibiotics as my MMC (12 weeks) had gone septic and I needed emergency ERPC.

I am positive though! Have already had every test under the sun, 13 vials of blood taken for tests!!! and all showed no problems. I also know I can get pregnant easily.Have consultant appointment in a few weeks too.

Will be checking up on you teds and raven Wink.Rugbywidow have a great year too and MrsP81 save me a window seat!

Teds77 · 21/12/2010 09:32

Ho hum. Tis the end of the road for me. AF arrived with my going to bed wee - sorry if TMI!

Didn't have very high hopes but there was a brief moment during the evening when I wondered if it might just be my month.

How are you getting on raven? I'll be sipping Christmas cocktails for the remainder of the ride if you need one..

aurorasky sounds like you've had a pretty rough ride. Hopefully we'll all be a little luckier in 2011 xxx.

KLou111 · 21/12/2010 10:21

Sorry Ted really hoped this was your month, fingers crossed for next month.
Good luck with everything Aurora, hoping the next one is a sticky one.
Raven it's all down to you now x

ravenlocks · 21/12/2010 10:50

Yeah, and sorry it is a bit of a damp squib of a finale as I too got my period, this morning so a day early. ARSE!

Well I had been given a couple of really good clues over the last couple of days so I had already had my disappointment, ready to move on.

At least I will be able to enjoy all the festivities over Christmas and not have to dance around the not drinking thing, yadda yadda. Obviously would have much preferred a BFP to flowing champagne, pates and cheeses but I can cope with the latter!

Sorry for you teds, we will get there. Pass me one of those cocktails and lets have a knees up.

See you all on the Sept bus.

xx

ravenlocks · 21/12/2010 10:55

Se we had 12 grads, 31 BFNs that makes us a fertile bus with a 39% conception rate - better than TCOYF says is average so we must be doing something right!

Merry Christmas Xmas Smile

It is indeed ARSE raven, but you are right, we will get there...

Umbrella or glacé cherry with that cocktail?

(glugs own cocktail and practices fixed smile in preparation for the in-laws incessant baby cross-examining...)

KLou111 · 21/12/2010 15:28

Enjoy Christmas all, this bus has well and truly stopped xxx

ravenlocks · 21/12/2010 17:01

Never was that good at maths, must have been that cocktail pitcher teds and I polished off. Clearly meant 28% conception rate - still not bad!!

northeastmummy · 21/12/2010 18:26

It feels really sad that the bus has stopped ... good luck everyone who's moved onto the September bus, and those that are early days. Have a brilliant festive time everyone!

RugbyWidow7 · 21/12/2010 18:34

Happy Xmas everyone!

MrsP81 · 21/12/2010 20:36

Sad that this bus has stopped, I was quite attached to it for some random reason.

Happy Christmas ladies and here's to 2011 which will be our year. Xmas Smile

littlemisslozza · 21/12/2010 21:18

Sorry you didn't get BFPs Teds and ravenlocks, good luck next time

Merry Christmas everyone!

100years · 21/12/2010 21:31

Sorry the last 2 passengers didn't get a BFP.

Hugs for aurora

Time to park up the bus then and switch off the engine. Xmas Hmm

I don't know if anyone will check in on here, but I got my BFP. Christmas morning did a test and it was a feint positive, done 2 more this morning, both are positive.

Keeping fingers crossed it sticks. :)

And I never did join the september bus!!!
