Brilliant news state

state thank you for indulging my nosiness. Re labour i think you are one brave lady as i am pretty freaked out at the idea of a c-section lets hope one i get that far and two baby comes out vaginally!

sleep i still feel like the whole thing is mad. I mean me have another baby?! get out of here! i was the same with DS hence i went into shock after his birth

confused you never know.

So April (month of conception) to beginning of May my in-laws stay and so hubby is around allot more and bang i end up pregnant but it is not just me but both his best friends wives!

Oh and state i am going to print out the guidelines and add my notes. I am also going to take DS's latest assessment which shows a he is hard of hearing and b because he was prem. Both my GP and I have been trying without success to get my notes - in fact according to my records i was still pregnant 6 months ago!

Thanks for the advice

Just reading some of your stories :) on iPhone so hard to switch back and forth to comment on all but great news State

So I decided not to freak out and go get a scan today. Due to the 3 miscarriages I've had already I am booked in for one on Wednesday anyway (when I should be 8 weeks). Just going to take deep breaths and try not to be stressing re lack of sickness. Boobs not as sore as they were but still a few twinges, sigh, maybe it will be ok this time.. God I am bonkers! Sure by tomorrow I'll be freaking out again.

Have any of you thought the worst then found it was fine at any point?

If only we all has scan machines we could work at home!

Sorry, also meant to add thanks to you all for your reassuring messages. X

Evening all!

state and nosleep great news! Also mrspear as I never got the chance to come on yesterday to read your fab news!

moomin that's unbelievably shite. I hope it gets sorted soon x

marbles, lots of virtual hugs coming your way.

Nothing much to report here. Am a bit grumpy for some reason. Poor guy on the end of the phone bore the brunt of it earlier... Bloody car insurance. I've sent them proof of my no claims discount twice now and got a letter today saying they haven't seen any proof so will be charging me extra. Aye right you will. It's all sorted now, and I felt better for the rant

i dont mind nosiness mrspear If i actually think about it a section worries me, well the cannula my first one i went in ignorant and anxious to protect ds so fear never crossed my mind, so by dd i knew the ropes and its really not daunting, its actually really calm, quiet and relaxing. Fingers crossed we all get as far as delivery, whichever way that may be :)

I really hope you get some answers and support soon, my hospital seem to be quite good at listening to you, well more consultant the one i had for my ds was an utter arse. Please let us know how you get on.

how early was your ds? Mine was 36wks according to the hospitals edd, 32wks to mine, nicu took one look at him and said edd is VERY wrong. Luckily he's ok now, just small, and has a few speech issues grown out of the breathing issues and his hearing improved from a failure of the test at birth to normal at 6mo. First 3 yrs were very worrying. Slow to meet any milestones and mute to 3.6yo

I've put a scan pic on my profile now :)

school i lay on the scan bed convinced it was over at 10wks, symptoms minimal and just not feeling pregnant, still here at 12+5 and just seen wriggler again. I wont tell you not to worry because everyone of us does, but get it all out here and dont worry

backward come here pet, be grumpy for no reason with me.

Hi all - sorry have been a bit quiet. I've been in one of those don't want to think about TTC/miscarrying phases.

Marbles - sorry to hear your about your CP
Mrs Pear and all - good news on the scans.

I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself - just heard that one of my NCT friends is pregnant. I had a strange feeling that she was going to tell me this before I phoned her. I think I managed to sound suitably happy (which of course I am for her-just want to be pregnant too!)

Anyhow enough moaning from me.

state that makes me feel so much better. I actually had no symptoms at all really with my DS .. But this miscarriage business makes you crazy! How old is your DS now ( me being nosy too!) can't believe they got your edd so wrong. How does that even happen nowadays?!

Jolly it's just that emotional roller coaster isn't it that's so hard.

mrspear and nosleep you give me hope!

I went for a run to get rid of the grumpiness before I took it out on DS or DH. Ended up going for 4 miles... oops. Only planned 3.

school I had symptom free days, I do however genuinely think we look so hard we look past them. I still think are my boobs really hurting

Ds is 5 in 4 and a half weeks!

Wrt my DueDate altering since having dd, the hospitals realised my babys seem to growth spurt outside there typical times altering duedate measurements, dd was delivered healthy at 39wks they've seen the comparison.

Hello everyone. Hope you're all well?
TMI: will this bleeding ever end?! I've never seen anything quite like it and it's just AF (first since mc)...
Been back at work 2 days since honeymoon and still just getting very drunk every night... Not sure it will do much good for the TTC plans but at least I'm numbing the pain with

Welcome back Yikes.

Jolly I know how you feel. There were three of us from my NCT group pg with dc2 and due within a month of each other. I lost mine, but the other 2 are still pg and due in October. Aside from losing the pg, the thing that upset me the most was that I wouldn't be spending another year of mat leave with them and that somehow they were progressing through the next stage in life without me. I've seen them both (with burgeoning bumps) since my mc and it wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be. I seem to find pg announcements for babies due after my due date harder for some reason.

Any back to symptom spotting - I have been quite grumpy with DH this evening. This is clearly a sign of hungerhormonal changes.

Jolly/confused, the NCT thing is hard, but i found it did get easier in time. There was a spell, quite soon after my mc when everyone started announcing they were pregnant, mums in toddler groups, NCT people, friends with their first babies. It was tough. My first mc baby was due in Jan last year, and I found the March-May babies hardest, which were the announcements just after mc. There was also a lady at a dancing class I used to go to with DD who was a weekly torment, especially when it struck me that despite her being huge, I would have been due before her... And then that stinging feeling faded a bit. I was able to feel almost happy for my friend due in July.
And then I got pregnant, which really helped me stop feeling so envious and left behind.

Just give yourself time and space. And don't feel bad- it is hard to be in a squealing excited group when your own innocence about pregnancy has been lost.

I don't mean to be unfair to the squealing group either- it's just that pregnancy announcements can be like that.

I would also say, that in RL you may not be as alone in your experiences as you think. Because my MC was at 17 weeks, we had announced it to everyone. Afterwards, a lot of people, at least 8 that I can remember, came and talked to me about their mc experience. (I sing in a ladies choir, quite a few were from that). One was from my NCT group. She'd had 3 before her DD, and I would never have known otherwise. I don't know if this helps, but it made me feel less of an oddity at least .

Good news on the scan state and loving the positive 2WW thoughts confused!

Yikes that sounds like a wonderful way to try to forget you're back at work to me cheers!

Following the sick feeling and hotness, I've started fricking spotting. WTAF?? Is it too much to hope that it's ovulation bleeding? Never ever had it before but yesterday would be 13 days since mc so it seems plausible. (More plausible than implantation - boo!)

Hmm... Special One-more-day-til-weekend breakfast required I think. Waffles and maple syrup anyone?

Good morning all!

lays out a selection of pastries, fruit and drinks

Cheap I had random spotting in my WTF cycle, didn't lead to a pg for me, but you never know

CD18 today's symptom is the overwhelming need for a chocolate croissant as I walked past Eat on my way to work this morning. This is clearly greed my first pg craving!

Morning all [grabs a pastry as i am a greedy woman at the mo!]

state i have really indulged my nosiness your children are beautiful and that scan picture is fab. My little one looks like a snow man in his scan pic! DS was born at 30 weeks; labour just started at 29+5 after a big bleed the week before. My GP says that is not that early - i don't get that. He had big bleeds on both sides of his brain (plus lots of other issues) so we were warned he may not develop at all but we had an MRI when he was 4 months and we were given an all clear at 5 months. But he was slower developmentally (i think emotionally he still is a bit behind) and like i said he has to wear hearing aids so speech is around 6 months behind.

school i had a scan on Wednesday and was all positive, now it is Friday and i am starting the low level metalling again. So you are not alone and continue to post as it is why we are all here.

yikes welcome back from your honeymoon

After reading about announcements at nct coming at the wrong time i am glad i never had a chance to join!

morning ladeeze

jolly my NCT group are all starting on baby no 2 so I can't see them and have the inevitable questions. I just can't - they are meeting tomorrow in the park down the road but am giving it a miss. I definitely feel that they are 'moving on' without me, that I am stuck behind with my crappy womb. one of the pg people is a grump ab out her accidental pg too, due two weeks befoer mine would have been. bah.

though I am now in the 2ww so hopefully that womb is growing a good 'un Am being laid back this month though and have decided bar dtd I just have to think that this baby will come along when he/she is good and ready. I just have to be patient. This kind of makes me feel it is out of my hands in a way- and inevitable at some point :)

hey yikes definitely a great way to start work :)

cheap I had mid cycle spotting with my two post mc cycles. I think it is common... Mine wasn't an ov bleed this cycle though, was at the wrong time so... wtf?!

oooh jaffa you are in a choir?! I would love to join one... is one down the road but am scared! will i have to do a scary audition?! Am moving house soon so I guess I should wait until then anyways but any advices would be welcome!

Am potty training DS from today! eek!

Thank you mrspear they're wonderful children --when they let me sleep-- scan pic was probably clear because I had to have dildocam :( as apparently my womb tips far back, something I never knew, but silver lining and all that with a good pic.
How olds your ds now? My ds was around 6mnths behind with physical things, he learnt to sit up at 8mnths however, but then did nothing else until 16mnths! He's still fairly small too, age 3 school uniform, and being a July baby he looks like he is in the wrong class room! But he's happy and pretty healthy so as far as I'm concerned nothing else matters, plus I think there's this extra bit of pride with an early one who had to fight a bit anything he achieves seems a huge deal. Not saying I'm not proud of dd but everything comes easy to her, and I found it quite upsetting when she began over taking him at one stage.

Anyway ill stop filling the thread with my ramblings.

Good luck potty training wilde :)

I came over all funny last night weird vision, tired just felt out of sorts so took myself off to bed, woke up today feeling better but a bit bleugh, worried me a lot!

Good to read positive news from quite a few of you. Hope everyone is okay.

Mrspear - I agree about Tracey, I saw her for my scan (obviously we are in same area) and she had the horrible task of telling me I had mc'd but she was absolutely lovely and had various suggestions about things I could do, getting the hospital to see me again and so forth. Just need to look to the future and cross fingers really.

Hugs to all!

wild potty training started here today too. What fun!?

Thanks all I feel much better about my NCT issues now!
Confused - your symptom spotting is making me smile. Only a few days until I'll be in the 2WW again and can join you. It's come round bloody quickly this time. I've been good this cycle - cut down on caffeine, less wine and remembered to take my folic acid and so fingers crossed this will be the one.
