Continuation of the last thread.

There's cake for scoffing, backs for patting, and screeching death metal for all your metalling moments. All welcome so come on in and get settled into the plush sofas!

Dictionary:

So settle into the mosh pit, we have special VIP area's for those on the 2WW, the new bumps metalling with segregated areas for the first/second/third trimesters and the club class cocktail bar for those who have just got AF and can get-pissed let loose for the first two weeks!

And we have a recently refurbished Mosh Pit Nursery for the graduates IQ Manda and Blue, we are currently running a rota for babysitting so those three can go and get-pissed have some rest! I have done my bit this week so i need the next volunteer!

MumTumWanted · 24/06/2012 20:32

Oh and fb ........ I refuse to go on I simply can not cope with all the happy over sharing it's not something I will do if I ever got the opportunity

kirrinIsland · 24/06/2012 21:34

Still early days Wilde - you might get that bfp yet. Fx'd for you.

mumtum I got mine exactly 28 days after my erpc - when it comes to WTF cycle, anything goes!

leedy · 24/06/2012 22:05

Yes, the WTF cycle is not called the WTF cycle for nothing! I think mine was about 5 weeks but I've heard anything from 4 to 8.

Great news on scans, hoorah.

In me me me news, if I sit in a chair for too long it feels like someone has tried to unscrew my legs and hasn't put them back on properly. Ah, relaxin, my old friend. Ouch.

ConfusedMumDotCom · 24/06/2012 22:10

Good evening ladies.

mumtum I got mine 28 days after my ERPC. I'm not duffed up yet either, there are still a few of us here waiting for a BFP.

Wilde what are you doing testing? I thought your AF wasn't due until Wednesday. For each of my pgs I only ever got a BFP on the day AF was due. Go hide all of your remaining tests in the garden!

AF is due (I think) on Tuesday. I am very grumpy, this is either PMT or, more likely, latent stress from trying not to think about tools get too excited. DH, DD and I are off on holiday for a week next week. So if AF arrives, I can drink many cocktails and Wine and if it's is a BFP I can metal quietly in the sun away from dr google! I am going to try and hold out from testing until Thursday. like that will happen Grin

ConfusedMumDotCom · 24/06/2012 22:34

"tools" = "it or" Blush

Blooming penalties. wanders off muttering about overpaid prima donnas not knowing how to kick a ball into the back of the net.

StateofConfusion · 24/06/2012 23:23

i have my scan pic on fb Blush but its part of a collage of ds and dd i have as my cover pic, so only seen if my profile visited, i had alot of friends asking how i was as most of my fb is close friends family who knew of mmc and genuinely wanted to see it.

bugger firstly don;t panic, the sechs can irritate the cervix in pregnancy and the fact the blood was brown is a good sign. Can you get yourself down to the EPU and have a reassurance scan? Whatever the outcome, the sex won;t have caused this.

tedmundo · 25/06/2012 08:35

Ahh state, the odd photo are fine! Stylish montage .. Get you!!

bugger .. I had this with ds1. Had some sexy time and then had a bit of bleeding. EPU is your best bet to put your mind at rest. I am confident you will be fine. Try not to worry. X

Gawd, this 2ww lark is painful. I have also never had a positive until at least dpo14. So quite why I am planning to throw good money down the drain testing on dpo13 I can't quite explain. But there you have the whole metalling that is TTc after mc.

Midgetm · 25/06/2012 09:19

Bugger I am not allowed the sech in the first trimester at all because it can irritate the cervix. Nearly always get a brown bleed if I do. Do not panic at all. Get ye to EPU just to make sure. How many weeks are you? I self medicated with aspirin (75mg) after MC number 3 or 4 and had DD in the WTF cycle. Statistically speaking no added risk of MC after one and then it slightly goes up after 2. It is only after 3 where this goes up again (but then I am proof that even after bloody hundreds there is a chance - pregnant with DC2 at the ripe old age of 40). Just get to EPU for a scan to put your mind at rest.

I have also avoided facebook announcements. I have friends who have struggled with failed IVF and it just seemed wrong somehow when I know how it can depress some people. I will post a birth announcement though and DH posted a picture of me with bump so it is pretty obvious (so agree State - the odd montage is just fine!). If people ask me things on facebook about it I am not secretive but I also must admit I find peoples pregnancy posts a bit boring for a mass announcement. That's what I have you lovely lot for. I get to bore you instead. Does that make you all feel special?

Better go. Had Wimbledon tickets today and gave them away - now regretting it as it's a glorious day here in London Village. Bet it chucks down when I go....

pebspop · 25/06/2012 09:34

hi everyone

i have got my hysteroscopy op tomorrow. the consultant said he would tell me his findings tomorrow after the op so i am going to ask him if i can ttc straight away if theres nothing wrong. i hope he says yes. i have to go back to the hospital in early aug for the blood test results so i could be about 6 weeks pg if it worked next cycle and ready for scans heparin etc at the results appt. if it doesn't work next cycle at least i will feel like i am doing something. all this waiting to ttc is killing me. i was told not to ttc until i have had my investigations.

i hide people on facebook who do a lot of pg statuses i can't stand reading them.

nosleepwithworry · 25/06/2012 09:37

mosh mosh mosh...BOWK, mosh mosh mosh,
Crikey, this nausea lark is nasty...but i am still Smile and happy to be nauseous....really i am...(whispers....enthusiasm waning somewhat now).

JaffaSnaffle · 25/06/2012 09:42

pebs, I did the same to a particularly annoying aquaintance who used to post every day about being pg. It drove me daft.
Wishing you lots of luck tomorrow. I am so pleased that this has finally come round so you can move forward out of the limbo.

bugger, I sometimes bleed a little bit after the sechs even when not pg. Has there been any more? If you can get to EPU to put your mind at rest, that would be the best thing. (And I don't think you are mc-ing, but I am 3rd time lucky after 2 mc in a row.) X

And as for me, I am metalling away still. I wish I felt more movements. Yesterday, I didn't feel any until the evening when I ate some ice-cream, (seems to do the trick). I cannot help but be anxious. Also, I am waiting for the system to chug along and start the process for me seeing a counsellor. I want a wriggly kicky baby please!

Oh buggerlugs Sad I'm so sorry. Hang in there, it may not be over yet.

A friend of mine is pg with dc2 following 5 mcs after dc1. The only thing she did differently this time was to take a vitamin d supplement.

((big hugs))

backwardpossom · 25/06/2012 12:18

Hi all, sorry for my silence the last few days. Have had a brilliant weekend seeing some old friends and not been near a computer :) Am officially on the 2ww now, ff thinks I'm 3dpo. So, fingers crossed...

farfallarocks · 25/06/2012 13:21

bugger don;t read too much into the boobs, I drove myself mad with the prodding and the soreness and size really does come and go. I hope you manage to get through the next 20 hours ok, great you have a scan already booked though. Thinking of you.

gothinrecovery · 25/06/2012 13:27

Glad there has been some good news happening on here with positive scans etc.

Martha so sorry to hear about your friend, I had missed this earlier, sorry.

Bugger - fingers crossed for tomorrow's scan and some good news.

wilderumpus · 25/06/2012 14:05

bugger please don't worry about the boobs - they change all the time when pg? And I don't do sechs in the first tri at all in pg actually for bleed worries but actually have NO libido at all anyway. Fingers crossed hard for you for tomorrow. I hope you get some sleep x

state odd pics are fine! i do odd pics... is the obsessives that are a pita. i was one of these in my first innocent pg Blush. I didn't really understand mc at all and was the first in my friendshhip circle to have a baby but still, what a twat.

hurray for 2ww backward. may the games begin... :)

I didn't test today! first time I haven't tested at 11dpo. I can't face another hard bfn so am waiting for AF on weds am. In my defense, and why I know I can't be pg confused, is that in my last pg - the mc one - I got a vanishingly faint line at 10dpo and my successful pg I had a super strong line at 14dpo that would most likely have shown at 10dpo... So in my world if it ain't there at 10dpo, it ain't there! still no pmt tho...

you ok jaffa? Am so sure all is well :)

hurray for nausea nosleep! I hope you are well. Do you have another scan soon at all? Am so very excited for you Grin

Do people really, really not get BFPs till later as par for the course?!

icequeenkate · 25/06/2012 14:49

bugger - really hope the scan goes well tomorrow and you get the good news you want.

pebs also lots of luck to you as well. It is a positive thing that the investigations are starting - the beginning of your time to get pg!

well done for not testing wilde - keep the tests well out of the way until tomorrow Grin

squeaky - I don't blame you for going for the other scan. Was it at the same place? So glad everything was looking good - isn't it amazing even at this early stage what you can see? I didn't need the dildo cam as I'd filled my bladder to the max and I'm looking about 4 months already.

I'm wondering whether I might have to book myself in for another reassurance scan before we go away in a couple of weeks. I'll be away over the 12 week time - just getting back in time for 13+3 and the nuchal scan. I'm slowly convincing myself that something will go wrong when we're abroad. I cannot relax.

My sil revealed that she is also pg with dc2 at the weekend, although only 5+ weeks. Apparently she was dreading telling me after my mc, and she didn't know I was pg again. She hasn't had a mc. She's so excited and naive - part of me wanted to shake her, then again the other part of me was Envy at her naivety.

ConfusedMumDotCom · 25/06/2012 15:47

Just poking my head around the corner.

Can't work. Too distracted about the possibility of being pg. I'm not testing though, would rather AF turned up than get a BFN. The earliest AF should arrive is tomorrow, the latest is Thursday. Feel a bit crampy though, so trying to manage my expectations. This TWW malarky is rubbish.

backwardpossom · 25/06/2012 15:48

Hugs confused so with you x
