loopy that's still vv early for a bfp, so hoping tomorrow is good

imps you poor thing, sick a few times by 0730... Counting those days to the scan with you.

How are you and mrbeedle? Any more believing?

keepitgoing · 03/03/2016 11:10

beedle...?

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2016 12:04

the clinic called this morning but I was stuck in a meeting with nowhere to go for a private conversation, so I'm hoping they will try again soon. Its no use me Calling them as you just get a time that they will call back, I never get to speak to someone straight away.

Not much more believing going on, but the nice strong lines were a bit of help this morning. But now I'm out of tests and wondering if I should buy some more or not?

The only answer to that questions Beedles is "yes".

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2016 12:38

:o well I knew you'd say yes imps

OP posts:
keepitgoing · 03/03/2016 13:05

And I say no, no surprises there either! Grin

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2016 13:38

they rang, scan booked for 23rd march in the afternoon, its 3 weeks away, that's ages. How am I going to cope until then?

OP posts:
BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2016 14:08

oh and they have agreed to give me more progesterone, they Think its enough to get me to the scan date, I will in fact now have enough to get to 12 weeks :o

OP posts:
Imps9 · 03/03/2016 14:22

It will be the slowest three weeks of your life Beedles! I hope you cope better with it than doomy-gloomy ol' me!!

I'm totes over the testing now ha ha as if. I didn't test this morning and it feels liberating. To an extent.

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 03/03/2016 14:51

Am keeping everything firmly crossed for all 3 of you.

Imps meant to ask before, given that you now have a very sticky BFP, what happens re Bourn Hall? Do they refund you or had you not got as far as paying them?

Imps9 · 03/03/2016 15:44

The third round is NHS funded, and we only pay for the top-ups when we have them. So they don't have any of our cash yet other than for the drugs that I'm having for this BFP.

cartoontrickster · 03/03/2016 16:52

loopy hope ds1 has been better today. Fingers crossed for your sticky bfp in a day. Or two.

beedle I agree with keep about more tests. You've had 3(?) All in agreement of your updiffedness including a very good looking line on the cb plus you can't get much better than that! The best thing now is to look after your self and be as positive as you can. Its out of your hands, there's nothing you can do, what will be will be and so on. More testing could just cause more stress unnecessarily. ( same to you imps)

BeedlesPineNeedles · 04/03/2016 06:18

any news today loopy? hope you've managed a bit more sleep and a bit less vomit anyway.

imps I'm sure I will be just as stressed as you over the next 463 hours :o

keep what's next for you, are we counting down to your 12w scan?

I'm still a bit undecided about doing more tests, i have to go the chemist today and pick up the rest of my progesterone so we'll see what they have there. I would quite like to see a 2-3 or a 3+ on a CB digital. My boobs have definitely got more sore over the last couple of Days which must be a good sign.

Morning everyone! Man, I slept so badly last night and have woken up feeling extremely hungover. Not complaining though (well, not if it means everything's okay. If everything's not okay I will be complaining like hell).

Yes, what news Loops? Really hope DS1 had a better night. What will they be able to do when he's 7?

How are you feeling Keep? Yes, when is the 12-weeker? Must be about 3 weeks away too, isn't it?

Will they take your bloods to get HCG readings in these early days Beedles? There's nothing wrong with testing more, as long as it doesn't become an obsession Wink

BeedlesPineNeedles · 04/03/2016 06:55

No imps no blood tests, i suppose they might if I had any bleeding but they'd probably just tell me to wait and see. They reminded to take my folic acid and to look at the advice for what preggo women should eat/avoid. Strangely enough liver pate is actually recommended as a snack. I don't think the standard type here actually contains much liver so maybe that's why its ok.

keepitgoing · 04/03/2016 08:25

Imps I'm sleeping quite badly too... 72 hours till your scan!

As for me I have my booking appointment on Monday, then it's the 12 week scan. Not had the date through yet, I'm assuming it'll be the week after Easter, at 12+5 onwards. We are away from 11+2-12+4 anyway. I know it has to be done by 13+6 which is the first week of april

I think getting your 3+ would be nice beedle, maybe in a week or so - don't try too early and then freak out

loopy hope ds1 is a bit better, you must all be exhausted

keepitgoing · 04/03/2016 12:23

Ooh I forgot, the other exciting / scary milestone is I start tapering down my progesterone next weekend, to finish that and the clexane by 12 weeks...

Pastamancer · 04/03/2016 14:52

Feeling rather crampy here so looks like AF is behaving herself and is on the way. Beedles and Imps I will remind her that she isn't to visit you

BeedlesPineNeedles · 05/03/2016 06:53

Thanks pasta

Any news loopy?

All looking good here, I bought some cb digitals yesterday, and got this this morning at 4+6. I'm still feeling sort of detatched from the whole idea. I don't want to get too excited, but I'm not feeling quite so scared that everything is going to go wrong.

Hey all, ds1 much better now, he stayed at home Thursday so I spent the whole day nagging at him to blow his nose, he had a 2 hour afternoon nap and then whilst he woke a couple of times Thursday night he wasn't sick. Sent him to school yesterday so he could take part in the Mother's Day assembly and asked the staff to nag him to blow his nose! He didn't wake at all last night and his throat sounds great today. Wish I could say the same about mine, looks like I came down with it yesterday.

Imps I don't know what they will do when he is 7, other than the consultant said there are things they can do but that a 5 year old wouldn't tolerate, makes it sound like torture but I'm sure it can't be too bad, just that they don't want to do anything until then except monitor him and make sure he gets the anti sickness drugs if he gets a bug in the meantime.

I POAS today and bfn at 13 dpo so expecting AF on Monday. Such a pain in the backside as for the next cycle they have increased the clomid dose which means all the hassle of going for follicle tracking at a hospital 45 mins from here several times, when they only do them at circa 8am which I can't get there for because of school/nursery drop offs and it's a big hassle of begging and pleading until they back down and fit me in at a time I can commit to.... All stress I could do without!

BeedlesPineNeedles · 05/03/2016 07:50

Sorry about the BFN loopy and what a hassle that will be with the clomid next month, hope you manage to sort it out. But great news that DS1 is better, hope you don't get too ill.

OP posts:
cartoontrickster · 05/03/2016 08:29

Sorry for bfn loopy and fingers crossed you don't get too sick.

beedles yay for the digi! it never occurred to me the words wouldn't be in English though Blush

keepitgoing · 05/03/2016 08:44

Ooh beedle! A 3+ already.....

Sorry for bfn loopy, next month is your turn

Hope you're OK imps

Imps9 · 05/03/2016 12:48

Loops boo, sorry for bfn and forthcoming faff. Not cool.

Bloody hell Beedles you're pumping out that HCG like there's no tomorrow!

All good here - out and about with friends a lot so not much posting time.

Pastamancer · 06/03/2016 09:29

AF turned up today so I will do my best to keep her occupied.
