ochaye · 08/01/2011 20:30

orange - I hope you have someone with you. I know how scary it can be when something like that happens. It can really shake you. It might be worth giving the hospital a call ...

nickstermum · 08/01/2011 20:33

to those on the 2WW and looking at symptom i first noticed tingly nipples, then i had the runs at 7dpo & i joked i hoped it was a hormone surge of a bean attaching/fertilising.... so maybe thats something to look out for..

Great Temp spike velvet i have agood feeling, and i was right about getdown Grin

Waves to all....baubles hope you are ok babs x

owlbooty · 08/01/2011 20:43

Orange Massive hug, am thinking of you :(

Hiding hope you're feeling better soon, can totally understand why you need a break - may your 2011 be a whole lot better than 2010.

Wombat33 · 08/01/2011 21:21

oh orange you must be so sacred Sad I'm hoping with all my heart it isn't what you think. Hugs ((())) xxx

Hello to everyone else and squishy hugs to those feeling down. Am at the theatre so can't post more now but will catch up properly later xxx

Wombat33 · 08/01/2011 21:23

should have said stupid phone. Sorry Orange.

getawiggleon · 08/01/2011 21:40

Orange Huge hugs for you, you must be absolutely terrified. Whereabouts in the country are you? I went to the epu at my hospital on a sunday (they are open in the mornings) Is it possible there may be one in a hospital near you? xx

Hiding This whole ttc is such a roller-coaster. The excitement and and anticipation of the 2ww and then the horrible flat feeling/anger/despondency when af turns up at the end of it all. I find that I'm in my own little world on the first day of my period, all I can think about is ttc/ what went wrong/ what we can do next time etc. This usually lasts a couple of days and then I get a renewed sense of hope/ optimism all again. I hope you get this too and we see you here again soon xx

hadrian · 08/01/2011 22:03

A big hug to orange - I really hope you're doing OK and it's not what you think. Is there any chance you can get to an EPU before Monday?

I saw my aunt today and told her about my MC just before Christmas. It turns out she had two miscarriages between her second and third children. Sounds like the treatment in those days was pretty horrendous...anyway, she said that she also had a lot of bleeding when pregnant with number 3 and was absolutely terrified. The doctor told her to carry on as normal and said that if it's meant to be it will be. She ignored him and went home to bed to rest it out and everything turned out OK that time round. So I have everything crossed that the same will be true for you orange.

Like wellie I am in the WTF cycle so feel as though I'm in limbo a little at the moment and excited about the thought of trying again in theory as everything seems possible. But I know that when it all starts again and I have to deal with the arrival of the witch every month I'll find it so hard to keep positive. So my heart goes out to you hiding - I guess most of us have been there or will be there at some point.

I've just come back from watching the King's Speech, it's fantastic.

Emoo · 08/01/2011 22:13

Orange you are in my thoughts this evening and sending my best possible wishes it is a nasty scare that ends up ok ((( hugs)))

hadrian · 08/01/2011 22:46

Hmm that took the wind out of my sails. Just did a pg test to make sure the MC was finally over and the cursed thing told me I was still pg. How heartbreaking to get a BFP when it's the last thing you want :(

Wish I could just move on but guess I'm going to have to be more patient.

Mamapower · 08/01/2011 22:48

Shit!! I have just come in from a long day and wasn't gonna post but just saw what's been happening and i just had to leave a message:

Orange I hope with all my heart this is not a mc and I shall be thinking of you, big love and hugs hon xxx

Everyone else catch up with y'all tomorrow x

Mamapower · 08/01/2011 22:50

x-posts hadrian sorry chick, it's a horrible, odd wait. Give it a few more days, hugs x

hadrian · 08/01/2011 23:07

Thanks mamaP. Am calling it a night but will check in with everyone and especially orange in the morning. Will be thinking of you xxx

AandRMum · 08/01/2011 23:35

Orange all bits crossed that it is just part of your sensitive womb stuff. God it is so crap. Hope your scan is early doors. Sending lots of wishes your way.

Hadrian how long has it been since mc? It'll come down soon - very frustrating to see what you really want to see but it meaning completely the wrong thing. I know I kept secretly hoping I was actually still pregnant - I think I had the image of newspaper headlines running stories on miracle baby surviving ERPC! Madness, I know ...

MummyA I often think it must be hard being the dh on the other side watching the person you love suffering and not being to fix it. I think sometimes that mindset of not wanting to 'put you through it again' is a way of solving the problem but misses the whole point of the end result being

PrettyVacant1 · 08/01/2011 23:41

Sending Orange love and strength.
Try and rest and get hold of an EPU tomorrow. Xx
(((((((((((((((Squishes))))))))))))))

AandRMum · 08/01/2011 23:44

... more than worth the short term trauma (no matter how utterly crap it has been) I think basically most guys I know are rubbish at looking ahead properly - hence getting stuck on the chaos and expense of two (all very true and valid points) but equally valid about number 1 and I bet he wouldn't swap him for the world and he'll feel exactly the same about number 2!!! I think Nix's stealth Ds 'i want a sibling' plan was pure genius and variation need to be enforced - good luck all those sperm catchers out there. My dh has suddenly perked right up and keen as mustard and I'm on the 2ww WTF!! I almost want to bottle the enthusiasm to sprinkle liberally in 3 weeks time when we are busting a gut again!!!

MummyAbroad · 09/01/2011 00:00

Thanks AandRMum We just had a big chat and made up. Smile I am still planning on bringing out the InnerHoStealthWeapon Grin a bit closer to ov time, but felt it was important to also discuss it directly seeing as we potentially could be in for a bumpy ride. I dont really want to go through all this without his complete support. I guess we are both reacting a lot to the extreme pressure of the situation, but things are looking much better now.Grin

Orange hope you are OK, there is a seven hour time difference between the UK and Costa Rica so I am always online late at night, do post if you need to chat xxxx

HongKongBaby · 09/01/2011 06:05

Hugs to you Orange, I definitely passed clots when pregnant with DD but she turned out fine, I hope its the same for you and you can get yourself for scan very quickly.

Hiding if you are still lurking, I know how you feel. I had to take a step back from this thread too since its so full of (wonderful) positivity and I have not been in very positive place. We are almost 14 months ttc now and I found the 12 month milestone a hard one too, next one for me is due date coming up shortly. However, I have to agree with others who have said mood can totally change depending where we are in our cycles. Think I just ov'd so am feeling all hopeful now, in 2 weeks time I'll be scraping myself up off the floor again!

Hello to everyone else x

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 09/01/2011 08:36

Just popping in to see how you are this morning orange - hope things have settled down and you're getting lots of rl support. Thinking of you, and sending big ((((hugs)))) x

ochaye · 09/01/2011 09:20

I'm hoping you're quiet because you're away getting help orange. Will keep looking out for you.

Hi hadrian. It took me about 11 days post mc starting to get my negative result. I know what you mean about how strange it seems. I was delighted when it came up negative! Go figure!!

cep · 09/01/2011 09:23

Orange just read the posts. fx that everything is ok for you.

loola2snowshus · 09/01/2011 09:37
