GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin for mouse! yippee! Am in work and it's ridiculously busy so can't catch up more but I couldn't read and run with that news! GrinGrinGrinGrin

digitalgirl · 01/10/2011 23:52

mouse woweeeeee! Amazing news!!! Very happy for you.
Now as I've said to the others - you can just pretend you're still on your 2ww for the next few weeks. It really helped me minimise the mentalling. So so pleased for you!

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 02/10/2011 07:33

mouse Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin congratulations!!! What fantastic news!!! Grin Grin

Mentalling as you know is mandatory. Tbh I found it easier when I didn't try to fight it and just accepted I was going to be worried about it. Denial is a good way to go at the start though!

aandr hope you're ok today. I also don't understand why the sonographer was quite so pessimistic - ok so it wasn't conclusively good but had definitely grown so why conclusively bad? Could you get a private scan, say, after a week? X

mousebacon · 02/10/2011 08:28

Thank you ladies - that's great advice digi

AandR I agree with Iz, why were they so sure? It still seems feasible that you will see growth in a fortnight. I really hope so xx

Mouse that's wonderful news Grin Grin

batteryhen · 02/10/2011 19:18

AandR I am so sorry to hear that however I do think what the others said is true, that maybe it is still to early x I hope that is ok.
Mouse - fab fab fab. That is all! :)
Sorry I can't post more am on the phone as no Internet at the new house

Freezingmyarseoff · 02/10/2011 23:08

Mouse Yay yay yay Grin. I know that's been a long time coming so I'm so pleased for you.

AandR how are you today? Izzy makes a good point but I also understand that you might not want to cling on to false hope when you just know yourself. Big unMN hug for you.

Waves to everyone

Twittwooo · 03/10/2011 06:02

Congratulations Mouse!
AandR I hope you're feeling okay. xx

AandRMum · 03/10/2011 06:59

Fantastic news mouse and great that the numbers are so strong!

I am ok at the moment. Thanks for all the positive thoughts. I figured it was strange as well as I have read about the whole 5mm thing. I just want it to be one way or the other really. My body stills seems to think it is pregnant. I have felt rotten all weekend but not so rotten today so I keep flicking back and forth. Oh well at least if I wait the two weeks we will know for certain and things may sort themselves out on their own. I will see how I go - I think if I pushed it they would let me have a scan earlier.

AandRMum · 03/10/2011 07:01

Oh and thanks digi for the pm. I wonder how long the waiting list is for Dr S on the NHS?

KnitterNotTwitter · 03/10/2011 14:46

Mouse lovely news - super happy for you...

And I've got news of my own too... Yep, got a BFP a few weeks ago... Off for the 'check it's not ectopic' scan tomorrow... will be 7 weeks on Wed...

Sorry to have not been around. I needed a break from everything, but I'm getting so nervous for tomorrow that I felt I needed you all...

Hugs to everyone else...

Velvetcu · 03/10/2011 14:54

Oh knitter that's wonderful, I was going to pm you today to see how you were! Grin

Freezingmyarseoff · 03/10/2011 15:07

Great news knitter GrinGrin
We're here for all hand holding, metalling & ranting. Good luck for tomorrow, Tia a nerve-wracking time before a scan. Any chance of finding some distraction?

digitalgirl · 03/10/2011 15:41

how lovely! congratulations knitter good luck with your scan tomorrow! Completely understand you needing a break...we're here to hold your hand as and when.

AandR I think the NHS waiting list might have been about 4-6 months for some of the ladies on the ttc/pg with pred thread, which depending on how you feel about resuming ttc may be enough time to have a break. I'm still with the others on wondering why the sonographer seems to be jumping to conclusion. If it helps get you out of limbo I would definitely push for another scan this week rather than waiting till next week.

MissTinaTeaspoon · 03/10/2011 16:02

Congratulations knitter Grin Good luck with the scan, keep us posted!

AandR, could you go somewhere different for a follow up scan maybe? To get a different opinion?

My very odd period appears to have been shorter than normal...it was really painful for days and just seemed abnormal. I'm wondering if an egg got fertilised and never produced enough hcg to give me a positive test or maintain a pregnancy. Obviously I've got no 'proof' so no justification for asking for any investigations. I guess it's time to get going again for the month. I'm worn out though! Why is it taking so b**y long?! Sad Angry

CollieandPup · 03/10/2011 17:02

Yay Knitter thats just fantasic news, congratulations. Good luck for your scan tomorrow.

((hugs)) for Tina, this month has your name written all over it.
