Trying to conceive after mc? Pregnant after MC and seeking somewhere safe to hide? Recently graduated from the mosh pit? Come on down to the mosh pit for some serious metalling and cake part 5

[MrsHerculePoirot]

Hoping the new thread brings a plethora of BFPs and lots of healthy arrivals!

They think that I conceived later than I thought due to post MC 'cycles' and I'm around 'only just' 5 weeks. Got a call from EPU and they said today's bloods were normal for early pregnancy so... so far so good.

Can't stop imagining shoulder pain now!! :/

Squiz how annoying but your blood results and the fact that they saw something is very encouraging. Fingers crossed here x

Thanks everyone for your words of support - really does help. Will def be taking it easy next few days. Seeing a friend tomorrow who's loaning me loads of maternity clothes. Only have a few bits so far so will def be feeling more comfortable!

Try to take the positives that they've detected something plus your good bloods squizita I had an early scan at bang on 6 weeks (yes my MW also bit of an eager beaver!) due to suspected previous ectopic would have preferred it at 7. They did detect sac and fetal pole, however, my dates moved forward at 12 week scan so was actually 6+3 when they scanned. So if it was mega early at 5 weeks good they've seen something.

MrsHP sorry also no idea about the progesterone results. Still keeping fingers and toes crossed for you!

Oh squizita how nerve wracking. But at least something - however vague - is more hopeful that nothing? This is why I'm burying my head in the sand & not even contacting docs if I can help it until 8 weeks...couldn't stand the uncertainty before. So for now, other than watching what I eat & putting up with throwing up / awful bloating etc...im treating it like I'm not pg ;s

When's your next appt?

squizita that is very early, but bloods and blob very good signs along with your other symptoms!!

Yeah just so panicky. Just paranoid about everything (/latest... After a pizza I felt sick, and had to go for a poo soon after, sorry TMI, which was a bit soft ... Argh it's not wind and morning sickness its lysteria ... ERM no, my belly often does this after oily food hormones can only make it worse).

How's everybody doing? squizita how are you?

Alright thanks dorita how are you? Just waiting for AF - I have the ore period headache and got a bfn this morning so know she is on her way! Then icannhave the next tests done...

I'm ok thanks Mrshp Bloody AF, if it gets you tests that's good. What has doc said?

Nothing much yet - I'm waiting to do the other eats and then to ring up about all if them. My dad works at the hosp and so looked up my first old test results for me...

I am tarting to lose the weight again though so hopefully that will make the difference.

You should hear soon then? Don't know if it helped but I started yoga and zumba to get fitter, and stopped drinking alcohol, tho that was mainly for migraines which made it easier when tempted, but felt I was doing all I could. Are you still using ovulation sticks? Sorry if TMI but apparently female orgasm also help swoosh the sperm up,we made sure we did things that way round (blush) and that month I got pregnant. Who knows if any of this helps, it's a mystery. X

I definitely need to lose weight so that will help. AF arrived yesterday so going to do theses tests today. Thanks Dorita, for all the infor very helpful!!!

Hi all, just a quick update to say that Phoebe was born last Thursday. We're doing really well and DS loves his little sister. It's exactly 11 months since I found out at the 12-week scan that I'd had a mmc, and now my little baby is here. Last May I could never have imagined this moment. Lots of love to you ladies, this thread got me through that time and the early weeks of my next pregnancy - I hope you all have your own babies in your arms or on the way very soon xx

aw lurcher that is such wonderful news. You must be thrilled to bits. Nearly got quite emotional reading this sat at my desk.

Enjoy your much cherished baby girl. Hopefully the rest of us who have experienced the same losses as you will be not far behind with our babies in our arms. Xxx

Ah Lurcher many, many congratulations. Phoebe is a beautiful name.

Just realised my due date for my last miscarriage would have been yesterday. Fortunately my 25 week bump is kicking as I type, which takes away much of the sadness.

How is everyone else?

Congrats lurcher, wonderful news.

Just got off a 13 hour flight this morning (work trip) and now have massively swollen ankles so taking it easy today.

Now 18 weeks so another 2 weeks to go before next scan. Getting more worried as date gets closer in case they find anything wrong, not wanting to take anything for granted before then. I think we will find out the gender, anything to make me feel a bit more in control and make it seem real (although expanding belly and massive fat ankles are making it quite real at the moment!)

Hope everyone else is ok?

Congrats lurcher, lovely news! And congrats to mumtum! Pebs hope we have good news from you soon.

Hi to everyone and hope that those looking for bfps get them soon and everyone waiting for scans gets happy news.

It's been a long time since I was on here, this pg has been a bit of a rollercoaster, after a mmc and an ectopic close together it wasn't exactly a barrel of laughs the first 12 wks! Then at 13 wks I got pneumonia so the first 20 wks were a bit of a crazy time. But 37 wks now with a huge bump and feeling reasonably calm. Will update when baby arrives, though I see lots if new people who won't know me, maybe it'll give you all some hope.

25 weeks jollyb how did that creep up??!! Doesn't seem that long ago when you announced your BFP!!! How are you feeling?

Congrats to you and your family Lurcher it's true, when you think back to certain dates it's amazing, something you couldn't imagine at the time.

AFM, sickness stopped, just slightly nauseous if I leave it too long between eating. Had some headaches too, hormonal I think. But all good really and scan on Friday (I'll be 19 weeks)

Hope everyone is doing okay x

Likewise Dorita - can't believe you're 19 weeks already!

I'm fine. Feeling pretty well at the moment. The calm before the storm.

hi ladies

its the post I have been waiting three years for - I am sitting in my living room with a lovely baby boy in the Moses basket!

I started ttc in may 2010 and three mcs later I finally got my baby. I took aspirin and heparin in my last pg and it worked like magic.

hope everyone is ok. glad to hear your news lurcher.

ah pebs!! So so delighted for you, what wonderful news! I bet he's worth waiting for. Enjoy every moment, hope you are resting up now. Take care x

Fantastic news pebs! So so very happy for you. Enjoy every moment xx

Brilliant news pebs, you enjoy every moment!

Ah fantastic news Pebs. So happy for you x

Congrats to lurcher and pebs! Enjoy your lovely babies.

All nominally well here at 25 weeks. Away to pre-baby holiday in Spain on Saturday. Beginning to think about actually having a baby rather than being pregnant. Eeek!

Hope all are well.
