Minnie I am keeping everything crossed for you. I bled for about 6 weeks with dd, it was always red fresh blood and now I have a gorgeous 2 year old so it isnt necessarily negative!!

Hello to everyone, fingers crossed to the 2 week waiters. I am now 11 days post IUI and no longer want to be inside my own head. Going to accupuncture tomorrow which always calms me down.

Blackkat · 17/04/2011 21:23

Minnie (((hugs))) thinking of you xx

Loup23 · 17/04/2011 22:05

Minnie i hope the bleeding stops and it's all ok, can't offe rmuch advice (sorry) but lots of people on here have bleeding on and off and now have DD and DS, so Fx for you.

olismum, sorry to hear about the bleeding, silver cloud and all at least you are CD1 and can get going again. I've just started having more reddish bleeding (sorry tmi) so am thinking its AF at 11/12dpo, early but I'm thinking positive, I go on holiday tomorrow so can have a week of relaxing, drinking and waiting for the next bloomin ovulation!

hihp good luck to you, really hope a BFP awaits.

hopeful1 how are you getting along?

bump are you now on the 2ww? If so good luck with crazy symptom spotting!

Why is it so bl**dy hard to get a BFP girls?

xx

shorty100 · 18/04/2011 08:09

minnie thinking of you fx everything is o.k.

I haven't tested yet, its not on my mind that much. Should find out today if ds gets into the school we wanted so think once that is done with will get alot more impatient.

Good morning to everyone. Good luck to the testers!

How are you today Minnie?

OP posts:
hopeful1 · 18/04/2011 08:48

Minnie how are things?

Okay, I am scared. I poas yesterday (FMU) at 11 dpiui and had a very very faint line. I poas again this morning (FMU)and line was slightly darker but still faint although quite visible. Then last night I got af pains like it is coming any minute and still have them today. When I mc'd last month I had very faint lines and at my 16 blood test the hcg levels were too low. Sorry for the me me me but feel so anxious that the same thing is happening again!!

harassedinherpants · 18/04/2011 09:15

hopeful fingers x'd for you lovely. Can you see the doc? 11 days is still very early, one of my faint lines is nearly 5 now.

I got a bfp too, also a faint line.....promptly burst into tears and thus reassuring dh of my mental stability. Not. I'm terrified too as it'll be 4 weeks on Wed since last mc. But if I have to have 3 mc's to get investigations then maybe it's best to get it over and done with. Lots of crampiness and some sickness, but that's normal for me and can be af or prg.

Oh fuckity fuck!!!!

harassedinherpants · 18/04/2011 09:15

Argh clicked too soon:

Minnie hope you're ok lovely, been thinking of you.

freelancegirl · 18/04/2011 09:33

Just a quickie as on a deadline but Minnie hope things are continuing to ease. Just wanted to say AGGGGRRRRHH to Harassed and Hopeful for the BFPs!!! I am not so clued up on this game to think they can mean anything else except you are pregnant - surely you don't get false BFPs....?? Wooooo! Am watching in the hope you will become sure of them. Yes Harassed you are right. Fingers crossed it goes ok this time but if the worst happens at least you will be eligible for treatment. Can't believe people have to go through this three times to get to that stage. But hoping this is a sticky one for you xx

Youremindmeofthebabe · 18/04/2011 09:40

Oh, goodness. It's all go over here.

hihp congratulations!

hopeful congratulations too! What tests are you using? If it's Internet cheapie remember that on some batches the line won't go very dark anyway. I would wait til 14 DPO and then test again. Good luc with schools, we just found out about ds's this week.

Minnie sorry you're in limbo. A lot of the freakouts have had early bleeding post mc. Blood tests may be the only definitive answer so early on.

Waves to all, I'm in the 2 ww now, and glad of it! Hope you all had lovely weekends in the sun.

Bumpwanted · 18/04/2011 09:49

Morning ladies!

Blimey it is all go!!

HIHP and Hopeful this all sounds really positive. Oohh I'm really excited for you. Fingers crossed those lines still keep coming and getting stronger. Keep us posted and try to stay calm (I know easier said than done) and not freak out!!

Minnie hun so so sorry you've had a bit of a scare. The girls are right though - it doesn't always mean there is something wrong. How are you doing today?

Melies you feeling better after the weekend?

Loup have a good holiday!

I don't think I am on the 2ww yet. I don't think I have ovulated (well according to period tracker on my iphone)but then I am a bit confused as the CM isn't increasing like it normally would (despite my grapefruit juice drinking!!). Maybe I'm not going to ovulate? Maybe I've missed it? I have no idea so I am just going to keep DTD...its tough but someone's got to do it Wink

Morning to everyone else! xx

hopeful1 · 18/04/2011 09:57

Harassed thats great news, congratualtions!! Lets hope they dont end up in another mc for the both of us

Bump goo luck this month

Youre I used the first response test, same as last time which was also faint but will test everyday to see if getting darker. Sent DH off today to buy a crate load of hpt.

Not getting my hopes up as know all too well this could end up not being viable too.

Loup23 · 18/04/2011 10:43

Yay for hihp and hopeful hope that it is good news for you both and the lines get darker.

I had a little bleeding yesterday so really though AF here and now nothing since so am on the usual rolle rocaster of "is it AF" or "is it IB", internet cheapies not showing a line but then I didn't get one before until 14 or 15dpo and I am 12 or 13 today.... No symptoms though so absolutely clueless as to what's going on. Will go on holiday armed with a batch of hpt and tampons to cover both eventualities!

Good luck "youremindmeofthebabe and all others on 2ww. Carry on with DTD bump good luck to you. THinking of minnie* too.

Waves to all others and hopes you can enjoy some of this lovely sunshine! x

hopeful1 · 18/04/2011 10:45

Loup keeping everything crossed for you loup. Hope you get a positive hpt. Have a lovely holiday and try and relax if you can, hard I know!!

Bumpwanted · 18/04/2011 10:48

Loup how confusing!! Well if you take it all at least you are prepared for all eventualities.

Am feeling sick. I didn't feel sick last time I was pregnant (and I had lots of other pretty strong symptoms like going to the loo all the time, sore boobs, wind Blush really emotional, off coffee etc ) so don't think that's what it is at all....in fact, I am not supposed to ovulate until Thursday according to the tracker thingy....but you know what its like...you just have to get that symptom out there!!

Ninunina · 18/04/2011 12:38

Just popping in quickly to lurk for some bfp...and voila....congratulations harrased and hopeful. Fx that all is ok minnie, can you go to the epu to get hcg levels tested to make sure its going up.

olis have you tested again today or did AF make an appearance? I think cd1 should be taken from. 1st day of proper bleeding.

Chloe55 · 18/04/2011 13:04

That's great news harrassed & hopeful! Grin

Am kinda bleeding, if you can call it that. It's almost like I am having a ridiculously light period that is so far lasting about a week. I can def not class any of the days as CD1 though as I know my own AFs and this is so far not one of them so am very Sad and Angry that I clearly didn't ovulate this cycle and I just wish my body would stop fecking about and just bring AF on!

olismum23 · 18/04/2011 13:24

ninu no bleeding today at all had brown stretchy CM PINK CM on wiping with a tiny red streak then brown stretchy CM a tiny bit then nothing all last night and still nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont know what to think boobs hurt and my sense of smell has rocketed, I am scared im in the same situation as before :( with hcg not rising I only tested on what would have been my 7th week and got a faint line baby was only 4 weeks scared now :(

congrats to BFPS

Chloe55 · 18/04/2011 13:45

oli How did you test when you were pg with your ds? By which I mean, like collie does it take a long time in general for you to show a clear BFP? I tend to show days before AF due, have done with all my pgs which is why I generally know that when my AF is late it is probably because I haven't ov not because I am pg iykwim?

olismum23 · 18/04/2011 14:00

I dont know chloe I had no idea i was pregnant with my ds as my periods were irregular and i was waiting to be tested for infertility we had been trying a year and a half when i felt something was different i was 6 and a half weeks and got a very strong line i did test two weeks before and got a negative mind you i just dont know??

Diamondsamdrubies · 18/04/2011 14:36

Freelance broke your good (Harrassed) news in the miscarriage threads. Just had to pop by and say I have everything crossed for you my lovely. Hope this one is a super sticky one. Congratulations to Hopeful too. Hi to everyone else. Sorry we're in this predicament. Hope this is a lucky thread for all who ride in her. Marking my place until finished miscarrying. Hoping to join you all very soon my lovelies xxx

Loup23 · 18/04/2011 14:42

sorry to hear your news diamonds.

olismum looks like I might be in the same position, I have had light periods since coming off the pill but have been on and off bleeding since Saturday but no symptoms at all, so confusing as to when I am CD1. Just wish AF would show properly to get me started again, meanwhile I secretly hope it's some sort of implantation.

Stocking up at Boots with some hpts on the basis that if this month it is a negative, there will always be next month!!!

will try and keep an eye on the thread from my mobile but whilst i'm on holiday, wishing all youo ladies lots of luck and sticky beans! x

olismum23 · 18/04/2011 15:12

well ladies AF must have known i was talking about her see is well and truely here now another month passes oh well offically CD1 now must now be more a 32 day cycle.....ho hum hope yours is a implantation bleed loup

Diamonds - :( for you, hope you are ok.
