Jaffa - I'm so sorry they are leaving you in limbo. Fingers crossed its just cramps and you will be reassured on thurs.

Bonzo - congratulations! I had 2 bfn since m/c one 2 weeks after and 1 last fri.... Although I'm now panicking that it's left over hormones and not a new pg. I don't know how it can be??????? Hmmmmmmmmm is it? Isn't it?

Hi ladys just a quick question from all ur worldly wisdom I had erpc last Monday and stopped bleeding on thurs but started again today I did test on Friday and neg well if there was line it was very very very faint so this can't be my period could it I know I sound stupid and don't think it really is af but is this normal ?

kirrinIsland · 24/04/2012 17:44

Jaffa sorry you're stressing, is there another hospital nearby you can try. I've had a few crampy type pains and I honestly think it's constipation/over-use of fybogel Blush

bonzo Congratulations :)

tenner my bleeding came and went a bit after my erpc so perhaps it's that?

Evening ladies.

Metalling bad again, had aches in my lower abdomen but my skin around my old section scar is sore --because I itched it-- so I'm praying its that!

Felt awful nausea this morning for 10mins or so and gagged once, this pleased me

StateofConfusion · 24/04/2012 18:41

Also dp went to get 75mg asprin for me and the chemist gave him a huge lecture about 'horrific birth defects' and I should see a doctor first...? And wouldn't sell them to him.

Hello ladies
Im also a lurker, well, kind of. Posted when I had my MMC in Feb and felt it was the end of the world.
CONGRATULATIONS to all those with BFPs and to those AF paid a visit this month, here's hoping for BFPs in May.
I have a Q to ask you ladies, you sure know much more than my GP.
I had a MMC on the 23rd Feb and my period came back on the 27th of March, I ovulated on the 7th of April and DTD everyday from CD7 till CD11 ovulated on CD 12 didn't do anything that day, then DTD CD13 till CD 16.
Managed to convince myself I was pregnant this cycle but AF turned up on Sat.

Now to my Q after waffling (sorry), could the miscarriage have affected my chances of ovulating? I was sure I ovulated because I had the pain on the CD12.
Also, what Bvits can I take to help my chanes. I am currently taking the following:
Zinc
Folic Acid
Vit D3
Vit E
I hope I'm not overdoing it.
Sorry for the long me post. I have been so worried and questioning why I didn't get pregnant in the last cycle.

TitsalinaBumSquash · 24/04/2012 19:48

I'm here for a self absorbed wail.

I have been sick again, out of the blue no warning. Only twice today but my body just seems to crash afterwards, I end up in tears, shaking with my heart beating like mad and short of breath.
I know I'm being a massive wimp.
I have just had one of those days, endless clients all day, not a lot of time for eating/drinking. Headache from the acrylic session running.
Urgh. I am stupidly telling myself that being sick means that the bean is likely to be ok Blush

Ah, tits it really does suck - the fact we have known the pain of a loss and the desperation to be pregnant again doesn't make the hard parts any much easier to bear. My best friend is a lecturer in Beauty therapy and I've been a case study for many of her girls - so I have an idea of how difficult it'll be for you to get through your days with treatment after treatment people and their, um, smells and chemicals...

Have you considered going to the GP for anti-sickness pills? I'm not au fait with which ones exactly are known to be effective and safe but the hypermesis thread is bound to have the details/advice. You don't HAVE to suffer (or at least, suffer so badly) and of course it's gonna make you feel pants. Give it a thought, eh?

joyful even when you are at peak fertility (age and ovulation wise) and have sex at the right time, the experts reckon you have a 25% chance of pregnancy. So don't go thinking there is something wrong with you just because you didn't get pregnant straight away.

Have you considered an all-in-one pre-conception vitamin rather than all the individual ones? They will have the recommended amounts of those elements and the convenience of a single pill! Then, you could (should, in my opinion!) add the high dose B vits. I regularly post about them on this thread, I'm sure you can find my waffle quite easily (haven't got time to type it now as dinner arriving very shortly!)

And those of you who remember me going off to do that thing for New Look... I started a thread over here so I don't take over the thread here with 'off topic' nonsense!

Someone really needs to start new thread! No regular ttc'ers about up for the job? (could copy/paste much of this thread's opening post Wink)

Ok, bravely having a go before we run out of space here:

Hello all, aw man I am freaking out big style! Had a mmc back in Feb (13wks baby had died at 6/7) Was the worst time of my life and completely shocked me to the core....had the sweet naievity and excitement of a first time mum and didn't think for one second that 'this would happen to me'. then a few weeks ago tested positive again!! I just feel as though i am walking through quicksand and that every day is lasting FOREVER....just want to rush forward to a time when my pregnancy is well along in its journey and I can relax and breathe (if that ever does really happen!!) We paid for a private scan on Monday to try and calm me down...was amazing, they dated me to be 7 weeks and there was a strong heartbeat and I swear it was the best blob I have ever seen :) but this is the thing....now I have seen it, Im so scared of getting my hopes up, I feel guilty for not being excited about it, but I think I just have major barriers up...I want this sooo much that Im just 'waiting' for it to all go wrong again. Im having pretty severe sickness and Im shattered....so i guess I should find comfort in these symptoms....so sorry to moan but Im guessing you all know what this feels like!!? Next scan is on the 20th June....don't know if I can wait that long!!
