wow normsnockers, a line is a line (if within stated time limit on instructions) so congrats from me

well having alot of af like pains but no af today(not due till weekend),

sorry tmi alert:
I only had the one episode of red blood when I wiped yesterday followed by one episode of brown last night and nothing since. don't know what is happening, just will have to wait and see

homemama · 10/01/2006 08:31

Oh Jane, I'm so very sorry.
How are you today? It reminds us how very fragile early pregnancy is. Even if you're not going to try for a while, try and stay on this thread occassionaly as you'll find lots of support here. There's also a TTC after m/c thread if you'd feel better there.

Wow, Normsnockers! Have you tested again this morning? Let us know!

Anyone else due to test soon?

puppy · 10/01/2006 09:32

I'm going to test fri/sat home mama, how are you feeling this am?

how is everybody else?

Normsnockers, I'm pretty sure that even the faintest line is a positive. I tested the day after AF was due with DS and it really was the faintest line (DH couldn't see it)but I just took it as positive, good job it was really.
I've started to feel queasy today, though I'm not sure it isn't psychosematic (sp?) This pg already feels very different though I can't explain it.
Micku, how are you doing today?
Jane, I've been thinking of you a lot today. Sending you love.

Norms I rang the private consultant yesterday. They said I will have to wait for this all to be over and then I need to see them again to re-order all the tests. So I have to pay another £160 for another consultant appointment. Plus all the tests. I don't think I could go back on the NHS list now, although in hindsight that is what I should have done.

Went to drs today and I have to go for a scan at the hospital to check it out as I had only had brown blood not fresh blood (TMI). But its more red now and i have had pain all along so am no way seeing this as any hope. It will be the same sort of scan I have to pay for privately later on too. So annoying. Am really scared that I will blown all our holiday money for the next 5 years wasted a a year of my life and at the end of it still have no baby.

Hi all.. many thanks for your well wishes. I'm feeling ok, i hope i do not get any morning sickness, I didn't with my dd.

I have an EDD of 27th Sept from a couple of the baby websites but because I had complications from my first delivery I am meant to have planned c-section at 36 weeks... but I will wait and see what the midwife says when I see her in February.

Jane I am sorry to hear your news. I do hope things work out for you regardless of whether you go NHS or private.

puppy · 11/01/2006 12:15

Glad your feeling well micku5

Jag123 for some reason I missed your post from the 9th sorry about that, I can't remember having cramping from my last smear but it was when ds was approx 6mth so prob tiredness erased it from my memory as he was not a good sleeper.
I am still cramping and this morn I felt abit sickly (alot of my mindee have been of ill with D+V so could be coming down with something)and have acid like feeling in my throat, i also have a sore chest but thats nothing new according to last two cycles.
I was thinking it could be implantation but I thought it was pink/brown discharge this was bright red, suppose everybody is different. I have not had implantation bleed before,
Just wondering when to test, I have always been a cycle lasting 28days but since my miscarriage I have had one 28 and two 26day cycles. I am on cd25.
So I will hold off till either af arrives or till temptation is too much lol

homemama · 11/01/2006 12:32

Gosh Micku, your EDD is more than a week after mine and my AF was only due today. Last AF exactly 4wks ago. You must have very short cycles, I imagine you like being pg then!

Is anyone else due to test soon?

puppy · 11/01/2006 12:33

How are you feeling today homemama, has the good news sunk in yet?

majormoo · 11/01/2006 13:14

Hope all you pregnant ladies are feeling well. What sensible timing for the school year as well!!

I am very jealous. I'm also jealous of you lot with short cycles (although I'm sure it can be a bit of a pain). My last cycle was 35 days which is the longest cycle I have had in my life I think. I am refusing to buy any ovulation predictor kits or anything this month, which means I may have to wait AGES to find out if we have been lucky.

Anyway take it easy everyone.
Fingers crossed for Puppy on Friday

Hi jen. Yes I remember yours lets hope you are pregnant again. Did you have to wait till you had a period after miscarriage before trying again? How long was that? I remember that 2 friends had theirs 6 weeks after.

I went to the EPU and had scans which confirmed I had miscarried. Have to have some more blood tests and scans to confirm its not ectopic.

Norms I don't think I can go back to NHS as I won't be on their list anymore. Its a different hopsital to the one I am going to for the EPU so its all a bit complicated. I had to ring yet another hospital today, where I would have had the baby to cancel my appointment. Thats one appointment I wish had not come through so quickly.

Jen1209 · 12/01/2006 08:39

Oh Jane, that's terrible. I had to shout at the community midwife team who were chasing me to book me in, 6 weeks after I had left 2 msgs for them to say I had had the m/c. V for you.

I may have told a small and unintentional fib about my CD days yesterday! I am actually only on CD31 as last AF was Dec 12th. My first cycle was 6 weeks after my m/c so not holding any hope at the moment...

Artoo · 12/01/2006 18:18

Hi ladies!

Congratulations to homemama, normsknockers and micku on your BFPs! That's a really great start to the year

Really sorry about your m/c Jane

I had my HSG today (an X-ray of my tubes to make sure there are no blockages). It went very well, wasn't at all painful, just uncomfortable like having a smear test. The good news is that I am in posession of two perfectly clear tubes, no blockage problems If we don't get any luck this cycle we're back at the consultants towards the end of Feb to talk about what we do next

Hugs,
Artoo.

jane313 · 12/01/2006 18:37

You get results straight away, thats great.

puppy · 12/01/2006 21:41

Thats good news about your hsg artoo,
Fingers crossed jen1209 that af stays away, I had a m/c in sept. it took 5weeks for first af , then I have had cycles of 28, 26, 26 days.

I don't hold much hope for this cycle now, the cramps have got quite a bit more painful and I have backache so expecting af to appear anytime.

Hope you are all well.

puppy · 13/01/2006 10:14

Morning all, Ignore my last post regarding af I did a hpt this am and got a BFP , quite numb, really cannot believe it. [grim]

Micku5 · 13/01/2006 10:36
