Freak out room for those newly updiffed after mc - Part VI

Just found out you are pregnant after a previous miscarriage and too nervous to move over the to pregnancy boards? Freaking out about spotting, cramping, symptoms (or lack there of) and nervously awaiting your first scan? Here is a lovely place for lot's of support, hand holding and problem sharing.

Courtesy of owlbooty here are the Ten Commandments of the Freak Out Room.

  1. Thou shalt check thy knickers to the point of insanity until the baby actually arrives.
  2. Thou shalt also check the loo roll post-wipeage (sorry, gross, I know)
  3. Thou shalt bore thy physician and midwife to tears with the mentalling.
  4. And thy husband/boyfriend/family/neighbour's cat.
  5. Thou shalt obsess over the absence of symptoms.
  6. And the presence of symptoms.
  7. And the fluctuation of symptoms.
  8. Thou shalt pee on a vast number of sticks and keep ClearBlue and First Response in business.
  9. The day before any scan extreme mentalling is permitted without recourse to the Haddock.
10. Self-diagnosis with Dr Google is Forbidden.

The Haddock will be applied liberally to all transgressors.

See here for the old thread.

Still having contractions but they have slowed. Still no real hope, but it may take longer than we thought. Although it looks like infection has set in.

In other news we haven't been able to persuade or coerce BUPA so whatever happens I'll be moving on Monday, if it's not all over by then.

Have no words but sending prayers Dachs

cep · 20/05/2011 23:48

dach i'm so sorry, will be keeping everything crossed for you and praying like mad for a miracle.

Freezingmyarseoff · 21/05/2011 00:10

dachs so so sorry that this is happening. You, Mr Dachs, Alexander & Felicia are in my thoughts, prayers & tears. Will be thinking of you all night.

Freezingmyarseoff · 21/05/2011 00:11

Thinking of you too Silver

OrangeGloss · 21/05/2011 01:14

Dachs I'm thinking of you, Mr Dachs, Felicia and Alexander. I'm desperately hoping and praying for the positive outcome you deserve

Silver thinking of you also, sorry to hear you're going through such a worrying time

OrangeGloss · 21/05/2011 01:16

Oh, and re Pirates, yeah Johnny Depp was as gorgeous as ever, but his character wasn't as cheeky as in the other films. We've got a monthly cinema pass so not too worried as it wasn't the £7.50 or whatever it is now

wombatinwaiting · 21/05/2011 06:40

Hoping that dachs, Mr Dachs and Pups are all hanging in there - sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way.

wombatinwaiting · 21/05/2011 06:43

Back on the cheese theme - those of you wanting goats cheese, I'm 99% sure that the creamcheese style ones (Chavroux etc?) are made from pasteurised milk and the only ones to avoid are the ones with the rind. Will have a look later today when shopping unless anyone else has any wisdom to shed... Don't forget jarlsberg, mozarella, Masandam etc. etc. are all fine and I have suddenly taking a great liking to double gloucester - perhaps I need to change my name to cheesywombat Blush!

wombatinwaiting · 21/05/2011 06:45

Oh and sorry, silver - I really hope these next 4 days pass without incident and that you fall into the "best" 33% category - sending many thoughts to you and your beans.

Good news from coconuts too - do you feel like you can move on a tiny bit more mentally and emotionally now?

PinkFondantFancy · 21/05/2011 07:10

dachs am hoping that you, DH and the pups had an uneventful night.

wiw I think even the rind goats cheeses are ok as long as they're heated through. Mmmmm jarlsberg!!! I cant eat enough cheese at the moment-been like that since a week before the BFP but monster hayfever has kicked in and MW says I should ease back on the dairy because it stimulates mucus production......

ALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 21/05/2011 09:02

DAchs - hope last night was uneventful for you and DH.

Wombat - I think yesterday I felt much more accepting of the situation, hopefully today is the same. Hopefully, the future weeks are the same. Will still hang about here though, if you'll all have me Grin

PinkFondantFancy · 21/05/2011 09:13

Oh coconuts I can't remember if I said yesterday how pleased I am your scan went well. Definitely hang around, will be lovely to have you!

Chloe55 · 21/05/2011 09:14

dachs I will be thinking of you today. I so hope your little babies hold in as long as they can, what little fighters. Sad

I am very good thanks collie still not back on Clomid yet so still just enjoying myself really, booking a holiday for July so no intentions on getting pg beofre that and I am strangely absolutely fine with it. Am loving being 'normal' again hence me not really visiting the other thread (feel a little guilty as they were all so wonderful) but love hearing how you are all getting on (when it's good news obviously).

Big waves to everyone, especially those I 'know' xxx

banana87 · 21/05/2011 09:14

Hope everything is ok Dachs

mamapower · 21/05/2011 10:14

dachs I hope that after the darkness of last night the dawn has brought a hopeful light and a miracle! Thinking of you all xxx

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 10:47

Just popping in to see how dachs and silver are doing.

Hope you both had an uneventful night, and things are looking better thus morning.

Big ((hugs)) to all xx

nickstermum · 21/05/2011 10:56

Silver reassuringly a lady on the august thread also had the same procedure as you, and everything now seems fine with close monitoring. F x

Dachs sending you strength, courage and hope xxxx
And praying that little Alexander and felicia stayed put during the night.

Waves to all x

getawiggleon · 21/05/2011 11:10

Oh hairy, I hope everything's ok. Are you having any other symptoms? Have you experienced similar pain before? I hope the GP gets to you quickly x

Sending hope and strength to Dachs and silver too xx

banana87 · 21/05/2011 11:11

Hairy Fingers crossed it is just wind. Are you having shoulder pain with it?

Thinking of you silver and Dachs

LIBBY70 · 21/05/2011 11:14
