So much to catch up on! Am getting in there before there are any more posts to accidentally forget.
First of all welcome to Brownstag! Can we call you Stag? We have a Brownie already and we do like to make nicknames of our nicknames here.
Gosh your story about having 4 mcs and then DS is inspirational to us you know, as we have not yet had any Pred Thread babies. Not that we haven?t been successful on the treatment, it is just that the thread only started when I first started seeing Mr S back in May so we haven?t yet had time. If you look out our list though we have a few third trimester folk who are getting towards their due dates!
How was your pregnancy with DS on the treatment? Was there anything you avoided/didn?t avoid?
As far as everyone?s levels of NK cells we did have a list somewhere (an additional list to our normal list on here) that listed everyone?s. I think that Cherry and I are the highest at 3.79 each but there might have been someone else with as high a level too. I guess your levels mean you were on 40mg of Pred and intralpids too? I found with the 40 ? I was on it twice, once unsuccessfully and also for current pregnancy with which am now 18 weeks - I think the most annoying thing for me was moonface and weight gain, particularly in the face again. I also got terrible bags and dark circles this time. Sleep wasn?t so bad. Facial hair was there too! But it is all goes quite quickly which is the good thing.
I can?t help you with the Super Ov (as I am not on it) but I think you probably sussed by now that we have two threads ? a splinter group, or the Notts Landing to our Dallas
as so many NK cell folk were then being put on Super Ov. So this thread is the Pred Thread but they do cross over and there are a few people on both. So do stay here too! We can add you to the list if you fancy?
Great news on the scan Dunnit Yes it does make it harder to stay emotionally unattached when you see the little thing moving around and growing things.
A big wave to BellyD. Sorry the follicles weren?t brilliant. Am sure the others can advise about cycles with these etc.
I have a question about this sort of thing though ? does Mr S explain why there are a few of you having difficulties ovulating? Is it down to the high NK cells, the medication, age/genetics or even ?just one of those things??
Ari I think both times I have been aware of becoming pregnant I have had implantation cramps. I certainly never got any pre-af cramps that early when having a normal af. And both times I have fallen pregnant whilst being aware of it I definitely felt there was a lot of ?stuff? going on down there. I remember describing it like almost having the builders in. One of those pregnancies never showed a foetus and was an ERPC at 8 weeks and the other is this one now.
Kittens my phone recognises Pred too, and intralipids 
Scooter ? nice to see you back! Glad you have been trying to relax and enjoy the break as yes you are right in imaging there is probably a bit of mentalling to come! Good luck with the follow up appointment
Thanks for all the info on the aspirin. Particularly interesting to hear about your bleeding with that little skin op PQ. On that subject is anyone else finding their gums are bleeding more? Also have had a couple of bleeds from the nose ? too little to call nose bleeds but just a bit of blood occasionally mixed in with snot (nice?). I think I will ask Louise but it doesn?t look like there?s much harm in taking it until around 25 weeks when I next see Mr S.
My next step is waiting for an anomaly scan date through the post, still hasn?t got here. Off to Brighton for the weekend today so that should be nice and distracting. I have finally started to feel a lot better (cue more mentalling that it is going wrong) so hopefully that is the second trimester wave of normalness that is talked about! Hope everyone else is ok. Anxiously waiting news of Pebbles first follie scan too. Got lots of work to get through first though so best get on with it.
