sorry I appear to be unable to remember what to say on just one post - Shell poas with the digital you can do it weekly (on your change over day - eg mine is a Thursday so yesterday I was 5 weeks next Thursday I'll be 6 etc) and you will see it move up or at least that has been my personal experience!

CamomileHoneyVanilla · 08/03/2013 14:01

Thanks Spanish looks pleased with self

We'll need a Ex-Sept 2013 ante-natal threat before very long.

I've also realised people with BFPs now will be November babies not Christmas.

alyant79 · 08/03/2013 14:02

FUCK!!!!!!

Have just come back from the EPU where they scanned me since I was still getting a bfp 3 weeks after mc.

and what do they find? A great huge mass of crap in my uterus, that's what :(
So now I have to have a ERPC on monday, which will be 4 weeks post mc, which means we've just WASTED an entire fucking month :(
FUCK FUCK FUCK

They took my bloods to test HCG, and will test again on sunday just in case i got pregnant in the interim - although with all that shit in there it seems very unlikely.

The 2013 bus has just pulled away from me, tyres screeching :(

Great news on all the bfps, by the way. very exciting.
I was all prepared for poas next week too :(

IBelieveInPink · 08/03/2013 14:10

Spanish- ooh no, definitely not ready to be moving over to a bus yet. I will just be hanging out here for the meantime. I was on a may bus, then a September bus. I am just going to stay here until I have seen a scan and a heartbeat.
I will also be checking with the digi. That's what gave me the warning that the second mc was happening. So am holding my breath until next week at least.

Aly- fuck. That must be so frustrating. I'm sorry. On the plus side they have found it now, so at least you know. Sorry though.

Alyant - how fecking frustrating. Feel very cross on your behalf. I'm going to go and buy a pregnancy test now just to be sure (need to get the steak anyway!).

Thunderbuns · 08/03/2013 14:47

No time to post properly but just scanned through and had a thought- should we rename Fridays Fuckday? That's what most of the posts say today anyway....

Lucky13ForBaby · 08/03/2013 14:47

oh Alyant :( so sorry to hear of your news. Don't jump the bus yet though.
Shell - Thanks for the comment. Silly testing so early I know Blush

Who else is due to test early next week? I can't wait til next Friday!!!

GardenWorm · 08/03/2013 15:34

HOLY FRICKEN CRAP!

I leave you alone for 5 minutes to go an earn a crust and you all go and get bloody pregnant! IBIP&SHELL&BUMP

This calls for a double thumbs up (think 'We are the Champions' if old enough!). Congratulations ladies Grin

Janie I fully doubt intend to stick to 'Fertile Friday' to test, not massively hopefull so any witch craftery/fate/blah that can add a sprinkle of baby dust the better.

Maybe the pregnant ladies could create an interim thread like getting on a bicycle rather than a bus - i want to aspire to be on a bicycle thread soon.

SpanishLady · 08/03/2013 16:05

alyant - what a load of poo - so sorry and can totally understand your frustration - fx for a quick recovery and thereafter a quick BFP.

general question - as I've got to 3+ weeks with the celarblue digital - is it worth continuing to use them for reassurance? eg I know it will only be able to say 3+ but that at least lets me know it isnt falling back?

or am I mental?

dont answer that

CamomileHoneyVanilla · 08/03/2013 16:50

Spanish - I personally wouldn't bother. I did last time and it was still cheerfully saying 3+ after I'd mmc. Its not mental, its understandable you want some reassurance, but ime expensive false reassurance is worse.

Sorry, could you spend the money on weekly treats for yourself instead?

JanieLovesCake · 08/03/2013 16:55

oh aly how bloody annoying. just when you thought you were back on track. if it's any consolation, i had an erpc and they discovered loads of watery cysts when they did the pathologists report, the doctor said it was much better that i had the erpc as then there was a nice clean uterus for a further pregnancy to snuggle into...definitely a 'better out than in' situation. i hope you're ok, such a bummer.

and ok garden i'll do my best to stick to next friday as well (unless af shows up on thursday obv). lucky are you with us? :)

hey spanishlady I already checked my EDD and it's 10th November, I'm 5 weeks on Sunday (fx). It's a combination of late testing and 30 day cycles that meant I didn't find out till now. It's DH's 40th on 7th November so will be (all being well) a nice present :)
garden There is no way I will join a November thread, I want to be with you lot. I would join an interim bicycle but I'm not brave enough to start one...

cam good luck with the seduction Grin
alyvant that is shit, so sorry I had a whole load of crap left too so had to have an ERPC 4 weeks after MC started, hope they can get you sorted as soon as possible xx

Heartfelt congrats to all the BFP-ers!! Such fab news.

Fod, I'm so sorry to hear your news.

No TTC/BFP news here (been too sick) BUT I got a new job. The job I applied for to dig me out of mc depression (no imminent mat leave put everything in painful perspective) so I am delighted about that. And maybe like the proverbial bus stop cigarette I will now get accidentally pregnant whilst not paying attention (if only!).

Given all the good news and luck floating around I suggest we all buy a lottery ticket ;-)

SpanishLady · 08/03/2013 17:17

oooh Bump I think Im 9th Nov so kinda EDD buddies

Cam - yep that makes sense - Im going to talk my DH into an early scan - I just want to know something concrete even with acknowledging that it doesnt guarantee anything, and cant see myself hanging on to week 12

Bodicea · 08/03/2013 18:07

I like the idea of a bicicle thread. How about we start title with
Tentative November 2013 .....

Just spoken to one of the obs docs after sheepishly telling her i am pg ( i was supposed to get another set of none pg bloods done first) and they are def putting me on clexane once I get a heartbeat. Midwife just put it on order for me and got myself a few little practice syringes and a strange little tummy cushion to practice on first! Needle bigger than I was expecting Hmm. So been booked in for scan on 19th march - eek

Would someone mind adding my to stats please. I am on phone xxx

Bodicea · 08/03/2013 18:29

bump it's an anticoagulant like heparin. I tested positive for antiophosolipid antibodies. After my last mc.

Sounds like a good title xxxx

MrsSpencerReid · 08/03/2013 18:31
