part 14 of the thread

stats to follow

mel tomorrow afternoon. ironic really as at the hosp with ds for his ears today, so have to go back tomorrow. there were no spaces for today.

keeping fx that it's not pms

Morning ladies

Great news Minnie I am so pleased for you. 7 + 5 seems like a million miles away for me at the mo!

Cep so annoying about the scan. Really looking forward to hearing lovely news from you tomorrow though.

Mel pms signs are very smiliar to pregnancy signs so don't be disheartened yet!

I'm not going to go on a BFP list for a mo if that's ok. I know it seems mad as I've had a BFP but I don't think its going to be that way for long and then I don't want to have to be removed from the list! I really don't have a good feeling at the mo as I had awful period pains yesterday at work. I ended up going home even though I had loads to do and led on the sofa all night with my feet up (my Mum told me last time around gravity helps!! no idea if that's true!). I slept ok but have had a few pains again this morning although over in a matter of seconds. I just feel like its all starting again like last time. I'm ok if lying down and still but the minute i do anything strenuous my tummy doesn't seem to like it. I just wanted to get over the next 10 days and see the clear blue go up as it didn't last time...

xxxx

Hello everyone!!

bump that's fantastic news, congrats sweet! Totally understandable that you're scared, but feel free to pop in on the freak out thread for reassurances if you want to xx

mels fx for you this month. I love the strop yesterday- I'd prefer to think of it as the pg rage monster rather than pms!! hoping this is your month, got a bean bag in the freak out room with your name on it!
lily hello, how are you doing? You're on the 2ww I see.

Hadrian how are you doing?

Hope everyone else is ok, sorry for not catching up properly, but there's so much to catch up on after a week away!

Private scan today- shoukd be roughly 10+5. Petrified!!

Good luck collie2 let us know how it goes! And Fx for bump really hope this one sticks and that cramps are just the bean settling in, I think once you have mc once you're even more conscious of it happening again... I know i will be, I'm thinking positive thoughts.

mels keeping everything crossed for you too, hope AF stays away.

cep good luck for the scan.

Waves to all xx

Good luck for scans Cep and collie!

Hope you're ok bump.

Well the mooncups here so I'm ready for the inevitable af on Monday!

Melies I too had to look up what one was...do you think you should maybe practice with water first!? I know I would spill it everywhere!!!!!

SO the pains have been on and off since about 11am. Currently off although am sat with a hot water bottle on my lap. Just did another first response and the line is not as dark as the test line but def darker than when I did it two days ago....that is good right?

God I wish I could fast forward to a month's time!

Thanks for all your well wishes. I have been having a little lurk in freak out and it is reassuring to see lots of people have had cramps and been ok. Guess its just the last MC which scares me so much as it was the same.

I think I need happy news for a distraction. When are people testing? I want to hear someone has a BFP please!

Hi,

I've been away from the thread for a while and haven't posted in ages. Just wanted to pop in and say hello and how are you all doing?

CD 42 for me and still no sign of either AF or a +OPK. I have never had a cycle this long (max was about 38 days before MC). Sods law when I'm actually trying, nothing is happening.

Oh well, I guess I just have to keep pretending I'm not bothered and not thinking about it 24/7 .

CEP Good luck with you scan And Congratulations Bump.

Apologies, but I've missed too much to read the whole thread. So big wave to everyone instead.

Oh Bump hope it all goes ok

tokyo nice to see you back no highs on my monitor for me so far this month either oh well DTD cause i felt like it yesterday anyhow :D

melies i just think that mooncup will be sitting there a while hun :)

good luck with scans collie and cep

Well after one week on a low carb diet i have lost 12 and a half lbs!!!!!! :D :D

Just another 4st to go :(

That's great olis! well done you!

bump I've put it in and taken it out for a practice and it's actually much easier than I expected! Don't know how I'll manage when it's full though!

Waves to Tokyo, how frustrating! Have you done a pg test just in case? I'm holding off till I'm actually late (af due Monday), I think day 24 is the latest I've ever got to without testing so I'm doing well so far!

Any news from collie?

good luck melies need another BFP to boost morale!

Tokyo, how frustrating for you. Have added you onto the list, feel free to update with more info if you like.

Olis well done on the weight loss. I lost 2st in 2 months on atkins, this was about 7 years ago now. Tried other diets since but nothing compares for the rapid weight loss and lack of hunger.

Collie I'm good, thanks. Think its the 2ww for AF rather than BFP, but hey ho.

Bump hope you are ok x

Mel at you practicing!!

I had a call from the hospital today, I'm being referred to a different consultant, one that actually specialises in fertility issues - I'm guessing my day 21 progesterone results werent' what they were hoping for after 3 cycles of clomid.....

Hi ladies,

Congrats on the BFP bump, I am sure the next few weeks will be full of angst for you but, like you say, cramps are very normal in early pg.

collie - how did the scan go? Looking forward to some good news from you.

olis OMG!! That's an amazing weight loss, well done you! I weighed myself at the weekend and am back to the weight I was pre slimming world so am gutted I let myself shove 2& 1/2 stone on in a year so am on the road to getting rid of it again - in fact my body is in agony today after a double gym class session this morning!!

melies good luck with your testing when you do finally cave

No news here, will def be a bfn this month as we haven't SWI at all! I think I am on about cd22 but won't put my stats on until next AF as not really sure. Have had some bleeding today again so my cycles are well and truly f*cked up, even more so since I started Clomid it would seem but haven't took it this month due to my break. Think I will skip next month too as really want to go away in July and I want to go

On phone so just a quick update. Scan was good. Little pup fine all wriggly. Actually gain 5 days too! Nuchal results very low- 1:10098.

Won't ve back till late tonight so will do a proper catch up tomorrow.

chloe lovely to hear from you. Xx

Yay collie! !

Waves to Chloe

That's great Collie. Really pleased for you.

Mel I did do one yesterday which was -ive. Not surprised really as haven't had a +OPK. Only did it as I've had some cramping and the very tiniest bit of blood today (sorry if TMI), but not enough to be anything significant.

I'll try again in a few days time but I suspect I've missed a period.

Collie excellent news, really pleased for you.

Cep good luck tomorrow, will be thinking of you.

Chloe you do sound a lot happier, the break seems to be just what you needed.

Hi ladies - hoping all well with you all
hadrian hoping all ok?

Chloe had to reply to your post. It sounds as though you are much, much more relaxed which is lovely to hear. It sounds as though you've taken back control of your life, which seems like such a hard thing to do when you're in the TTC tunnel, but is so rewarding,. I'm sure that with you concentrating on feeling better, getting fit and enjoying yourself that you will relax, and then who knows what might happen. Now, feel free to shoot me down in flames for saying that bcs I know how annoying it can be, but I really believe it. Thinking of you x

to mel, olis, Lily and bump

Thanks chloe trying anything to conceive again and if not the weight loss will be good for me anyhow you sound much happier hun.

I am really worried now still lows on the monitor and i should be OV today :( wondering if i have lutal phase defect?? if so very sad about it the 2 times i have fell pregnant i have had a skipped period before not sure what it all means :(

chloe glad your doing so well.

oli i know nothing about the monitor but i hope it shows what you need soon.

Scan went fine. Nuchal measurement a little high for my liking was 2.1 but still within limit for my dates. They did however put my dates back again although i disagree, she did say the scan is give or take 5 days. they've now put the date at 10/11/11. So just have to wait for blood test results now, will call within 5-7 days if high risk. Ds kept saying baby in mummy, was so cute.

Great news Cep. I don't know anything about nuchal scans sorry, they don't do them here. As long as it's in the right range though I'm sure it's fine.

That all sounds a bit strange olis, could you have a chat with your gp?

I still haven't tested...I'm too scared because I'm so convinced it'll be a bfn. I've got a spot and sore boobs, pms symptoms for me :(

Waves to everyone

Well I finally got a smiley face yesterday on my OPKs so looks like a definite no go this month - dh not back from OZ til monday :( Mind you I will still be tempted to test just in case of immaculate conception :o

Looking at my previous cycles I do seem to normally OV on CD 20/21 so thinking the CP has thrown things a bit this month. Hopefully AF not too late so I can just get started again.

I have updated the stats as my CD was out

Fx for when you do test melies

Congrats to collies and cep

Still low again this morning :( all i can do is keep at it i suppose my cycle was 33-34 days last time so still have time to ov.... *melies it might be baby sore boobs too :)

olis I definitely think you still have time to OV if your cycle is 33 days

I was really worried when the OPKs kept coming up -ve and then also very annoying when I kept forgetting to check in the required timeframe and I'd have to wait and do it all again

I think I might have to try this temping thing as my POAS obsession is getting very expensive.

Plus really do know when I OV as the pain is pretty bad - getting worse actually which means I probably need to get my endometriosis checked out.
