Hi everyone,

Here's our shiny new thread continuing from the old 'who wants to buddy up' thread (sorry, don't know how to link). I'm sure some regulars will be along in a minute and also anyone else who is ttc and would like some company is very welcome to join- we're very friendly!

It's ok, I think I am taking it quite well. My DH can hardly believe it. I actually came home and spent all this time working, only stopping for 2 cries. I have decided I will have a glass of red later on.
I'd much rather have the passing part happen over the weekend cause I can't stand the idea of going through it at work..but let's just see what happens.

I asked my DH if we can try again and he said yes xx

I had a little cry when I woke up cause I think I'd forgotten for the first second and then when I remembered it hit me. I am still waiting for the cramping and the blood. Any bleeding i had has completely gone.
Duck how long did your bleeding last for? I am supposed to be going to London today to see a show and have some dinner, I think I will still go and see how it goes. I am just so scared that the bleeding and cramping will happen when I'm least expecting it.

Ahhh you're all lovely, and your support actually makes a big difference.
Hard is - i) not talking to anyone about it ii) my DH not fully understanding what I'm going through and iii) not actually having anything to go through.

I decided to go to the show (was a matinee), we then went to dinner at one of my favourite restaurants. I decided to have tuna tartare and medium rare steak and wine!
I'm now on the train home, already with a massive headache (I only had a few glasses!!) and I'm ready for my pyjamas and a cuddle. My husband has been incredible. And you lot are great too.

So as soon as this shit is over, I'm buying a thermometer and my stats will be:

Mrs - ttc#1 - cycle ??? (Let's say 3)

I do consider myself very lucky that I now know we have no problems conceiving. Even if this has been a very painful way of finding out.

Xxx

Ahh sorry Duck, hope you get some clarity soon.

Nicky those pills sound great! Maybe I should mention it to my doctor.

Today I saw some friends with their little ones, so got out of the house for a few hours, then got straight back in my pyjamas and dressing gown when I got home. My DH doesn't know what to do with himself bless him. I have started getting a couple of cramps but nothing major. No bleeding whatsoever.

How has everyone's weekend been? X

bananafish81 · 26/07/2015 22:13

How do you find the orlistat nicky? Alway read quite a lot of grim sounding stuff about the side effects but never spoken to anyone who'd been prescribed it. So glad you're getting great results! X

Sparksflyx · 27/07/2015 13:23

Oh girls I'm in tears reading your messages :(

Mrs I'm so sorry to hear about your news, unfortunately I know exactly what your feeling... I've been to casualty , the Drs and been booked in for an emergency scan all in the same week of finding out I was pregnant :(. I have my scan tomorrow, so I don't know what to expect, I've been really distressed and upset and the Dr signed me off work for a week until I find out and get settled!

Everyone has said to me, and it seems really a good way of thinking it, rather Mother Nature took care of this herself than something happening at like 20 weeks! A lot of people have said that bleeding in pregnancy is really common same as period pains, but I have such a bad feeling about mine.

I hope it's not lost hope Mrs, if you can conceive once you can conceive again! I have everything crossed for you XXXXXXX

Sparksflyx · 27/07/2015 13:26

Congratulations to you Issie! What a lovely way of revealing the news! Delighted for you! And wow Nicky! care to share your tips?? I feel like all I've done is eat rubbish and binge haha! I can't seem to get out the bit! Xxx

Duck, I woke up on Wednesday with really bad period pains and thought I was going to be sick ended up with a really bad fainting spell and couldn't come round, oh had to come home from work and everything :| Dr said it was normal could just be my body changing and getting ready and as long as there was no blood I was okay
Next day I started bleeding really bad like proper period sorry for tmi! So went to Drs and he signed me off work immediately for a week and booked me in for a scan n the earliest they could get was Tuesday
The bleeding stopped yesterday but it was honestly just like a period which is really strange!
I would of been 5 weeks on Saturday. I've prepared myself for the worst but I just can't stop thinking about it and overthinking my pregnancy symptoms!

Oh dear duck sounds like ur having a time of it! Sorry to hear about the bfn :( still may be hope yet tho! Fx for you xxxx

Wow, a rough ride indeed! What a shitty few weeks for some of us!
I guess ttc comes with huge ups and downs - it's an emotional roller coaster!

I am so sorry Sparks, it's such an awful thing to be going through! I'm right here with you!!

No bleeding still for me, some cramping but nothing at all major.
I went to work. I can't just stay off work indefinitely until I miscarry, I manage a whole team of people who need support.
Someone at work asked me today when I might consider starting a family. It's a question I have probably asked loads of times- I never realised what an awful, insensitive question it can actually be.
I have been brave today, no tears. But the second I get home I am getting my pjs on and getting in bed with my tissues xx
