Shhhh. Between you and me - boobs have been tingling all day long - snuck in a secondary device. If I squint so hard that the crows feet wrap around the back of my head and to the front again, I think (very tentatively) there may be a very very very faint (so faint writing the next word scares me) l li lin FRICKIN LINE!

6 internet cheapies left - just got to resist the temptation to use them in one evening.

....and breathe Grin

GardenWorm · 15/03/2013 17:12

Garden wow! and Jbird and janie and lucky (is that right? apologies if I've added your name by mistake - i JUST CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THE EXCITMENT)

Definite cramping today - that's implantation pains, right? (ERPC on 19 Feb - so too early to be AF?)

(Gonna be gutted if AF arrives before I even get to the excitement that is POAS Friday)

Bodicea · 15/03/2013 18:22

Wow can't believe all the BFPs today. Tis a special thread indeed. Congratulations everyone. Goodness me so many. How exciting!!!!
Garden worm Woop woop. A line is a line. My first one didn't come up for ages, I nearly threw it in the bin and I had to squint to see it.

Bodicea · 15/03/2013 18:27

Just looked at the stats list. Anyone noticed there seems to be a link between MMCs, cycle 3 and BFPs?

Bodicea · 15/03/2013 18:29

I mean MCs not just MMCs

Thunderbuns · 15/03/2013 18:34

yorkie, I went to the doc's a few weeks after ERPC as I was so tired, run down and ill still. She sent me for blood test to check iron and thyroid function. Both were pretty low (she thought the fact I had just started taking spatone iron supps had pulled me over the anaemic line), so asked me to return in 3 months for thyroid check. This time it was even lower. Even though it's not actually below the threshold, the thyroid stimulating hormone (which goes into overdrive when the thyroid starts giving up) is working its socks off in order to make even this low amount.

This was enough info for her to see where I'm headed so she's started me on thyroxine which should help. Don't know how long it'll be to sort it out. There's no evidence re the mmc of course- just seems a big coincidence that it's all happened at the same time.

For info- thyroxine is vital for brain development of new bean so you've got to be able to make lots of it during first tri. Or get your levels checked regularly if your thyroid doesn't work! I bet mrs knows plenty more than me about this stuff.

Great news re good ultrasound but phhhbbbbb to getting up the duff on command. Grrrrrr!

garden, now you've got your bfp you can poas as much as you like. Keep us posted!

What a fantastic Friday! Well done garden janie and everyone else from earlier! The rules rock and Fridays are where it's at!

Dtd under smep starts in earnest here this weekend - eek!! Posh hotel here we come!

Lieslvontrapp · 15/03/2013 19:07

Congrats on all the bfps. Poas Friday is the way to go! Can someone add me to the list? 0 dc 1 mmc ttc cycle 1. Thanks!

yorkiebilb · 15/03/2013 19:09

I'm confused and going to sound really stupid. If I had a mc in Dec is the first cycle after that between mc and af Cycle 0 or cycle 1? I can't work out if I'm on cycle 3 or cycle 4! If its cycle 3 I'll have one of those bfp's that's going around pretty please!

thunder you asked for the list and you're not on it for some reason. Update please
It does seem all suspiciously linked to mmc imo. At least you went to the docs soon afterwards rather than waiting months and hopefully you will soon be feeling better and raring to go.

Anyone due to poas soon? We want more BFP's!

LittleBairn · 15/03/2013 19:20

Room for another?
My TTC story is that DH and I have been desperate to start a family for years but only just in the position to TTC last year. I conceived after 3 months of TTC, we were delighted only to be devastated when we lost our DS at 16 week gestation to premature membranes rupture.
That was early December and this is our 3rd month of trying, I'm starting to really worry.

I show a lot of signs of PCOS (I'm have seriously hirsutism) bu haven't so far presued a diagnosis, mainly because I got pregnant quick than I though I would.
I'm using the Clearblue fertility monitor its confirmed my suspicion that I have a short luteal phase of around 8/9 days.

I was seriously considered giving up permantly (I'm in late 20s but DH is mid 40s) but DH is now really broody and excited about the idea of having another baby.

Googling like mad for solutions but there is so many theories I don't know what the hell to do.
The monitor tells me I have high fertility at the moment so we will be DTD tonight amd then wait till we get the sign for ovulation and do it then too.
I've bought some evening primrose oil but too late for that this month.

I've also got a pinapple to eat after ovulation, I did that the month I conceived DS.

Feeling quite raw about it all but the worst is the isolation in RL no one can understand what it feels like everyone I seem to know have more problems NOT getting pregnant. Amd my mother (lovely usually) keeps going on about how no one has ever lost a baby before in our family.

AmelieRose · 15/03/2013 19:20

Can someone add me to the list please? 0 DC, 1MC, TTC cycle 2 ( I think - MC was end Dec/beginning Jan, had two periods since - is cycle 2 right?)

Am all of a muddle! Grin
