Of course they do Snoopy, you already have one as proof Smile
It's a scary time, it's only natural to be scared. I hope you and DH can get some time together over the next few days. Tell mil to f*ck off Wink

Oh I am on the verge, one more snipey little comment and she'll be sorry she opened her mouth. I'm the queen bitch around here.

Ok. There's no brown this morning. I know that doesn't mean it's all ok but if you were me would you double up on the cyclogest at least until Boxing Day to try and stave off the inevitable?

Seekingmiracles · 24/12/2016 22:27

I probably would. And I think DrS recommends it if you have spotting. Fingers crossed for you.
Hope you ah e a lovely day tomorrow x

Snoopy- brown discharge is by no means a reason to think the worst. Not sure if you recall but I had SO much bleeding. I had red, I had black (!!), I had brown. Obviously it all turned out fine- and brown barely even raised an eyebrow when I'd mention it to health professionals. Up the cyclogest for peace of mind but more importantly please try to relax. Though I completely understand why you're feeling this way given the not so festive people/situation. But you've done it before, and you've got that little girl in your arms. We believe in you!

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 25/12/2016 19:12

Hey everyone, hope you're all having the very merriest Christmas possible Xmas Smile

I upped the cyclogest, there's been nothing since the episode two days ago. drttc I remember how awful it was for you, you had a haematoma didn't you? I will try to relax but I don't think I can manage any positivity. Any slight incident of brown discharge has always heralded the beginning of the end for me. Of course I can't help but hope you're right and I'd love you all to prove me wrong!

YompingJo · 27/12/2016 13:55

How are you snoopy?

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 27/12/2016 14:51

Hi yomping, I'm ok I guess. Nothing untoward has happened since the 23rd. I'm feeling quite bleurgh. I don't know how much of that is really feeling that way and how much is anxiety.

How are you feeling? Hope you had a good Christmas.

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 28/12/2016 13:05

Another little bit of brown Sad

Seekingmiracles · 29/12/2016 12:27

How are things today Snoopy?? Is it worth getting a scan done? Just to put your mind at ease one way or another? I know you're not really keen on early ones but might just confirm things one way or another?
Are you taking pred again? X

OP posts:
Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 29/12/2016 15:53

It was just the one little bit, not even a wipe because I was kind of looking for it Blush DH told me off. There's nothing again today so far.

I've been taking the pred since the positive test.

I really don't want a scan too early because I don't want any sort of false hope. On the 4th I will 100% know, it's just going to kill me until then.

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 29/12/2016 15:55

Just looking back, I gave birth on the first page of this thread. How crazy is that?!

sunnyday01 · 29/12/2016 19:11

I was just checking in to wish everyone a happy new year and the old gang are back on here! Tentative congratulations snoopy, that's wonderful news. Don't feel bad for how you feel at all, if I ever get round to having another I think I'll be exactly the same as how you are feeling. I guess this pregnancy wasn't planned so there is no way you could have planned it or done anything differently. You're doing what you need to now and that's all you can do.

Hope everyone.e is ok, my little boy is nearly 1 - just over 3 weeks to go and back to work next week! Can't believe how fast this year has gone. I have started to think about if we will try again, part of me wants another one but on the other hand I feel so lucky to have toby, and at one point I thought I wouldn't even have him and I didn't particularly enjoy pregnancy with all the treatment at the beginnings nd the the gestational diabetis at the end (not that's I would change anything) plus it kind of feels like our family is complete - I'm not sure if is is beause both me and oh are both only children and rhe thought of another is odd. I don't know - no decision has been made but I guess we want to make one soonish.

Hope everyone else on here has a lucky 2017, don't give up and trust the treatment, 2 years ago I was in tears I had just found out my best friend was pregnant for the second time and I thought it was neverI Oi g to happen for me, 3 weeks later I had my 3rd miscarriage, 12 weeks later I pregnant and now I have a nearly 1 year old.

Seekingmiracles · 29/12/2016 21:33

Have you a scan on 4th then Snoopy? Glad you've had nothing since that little dot. I know all too well how terrifying it is. And how differently we all cope with pregnancy and those terrifying first weeks. I was a complete scan-aholic. I think I worked out I had about 12 scans in total!!

Hey Sunny - can't believe Toby is nearly 1! That's gone so quick!
I'm an only child and as much as Tallulah is all I've ever dreamed of, I think I have to at least try for a second (at some point) for her - I hated being an only child. But it's a terrifying thought. People are already asking me about number 2, even those who know how hard it was to have Tallulah. It really annoys me. They assume that because I've had a successful pregnancy that somehow next time will be easy. Their naivety irritates me.

sunnyday01 · 31/12/2016 14:32

Hoping alls ok today seeking!

Great to hear from you snoopy! Agree with people's naivety on having another, so many peopke gave saud hiw you've gad one the next will be easier! If only! Luckily both DH and I had great childhoods but we have such a small family with no cousins or aunts or uncles that I feel he shoukd gave a brother or sister.

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 31/12/2016 16:35

sunny I can't believe Toby is nearly a year old! Time has flown by and we've all come such a long way, it's quite scary haha

DH is an only child and I'm one of three but we both have quite small families overall. I definitely would like another baby and he's completely on board with that.

So last night DH and I went to a dinner party and baby stayed with grandma. I didn't touch a drop of alcohol and I ate exactly the same food as DH, out of the same pot etc I was lying in bed this morning enjoying an orange (because that's how exciting my life is) and the next thing I know my heads in the toilet and I'm vomiting. It's just the cyclogest isn't it?

Seekingmiracles · 31/12/2016 20:10

I remember just really wanting a brother or sister... I was lucky though, I had cousins who I was very close to.

Puking is definitely the cyclogest Snoopy Wink
Hope it doesn't get too bad though... every day is an achievement as you know, today you ARE pregnant x

OP posts:
Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 31/12/2016 20:25

Well I'm pregnant until Wednesday anyway haha the only time I was sick before was with edie, none of the other pregnancies. I don't want to get my hopes up, it will only hurt more.

Drttc · 31/12/2016 21:29

Snoopy, I've never been so pleased to hear someone's been sick in the toilet :-P I have a good feeling about your scan'

So lovely to hear from you Sunny! It's been quite the year for us all eh :-)

Seeking - it's crazy how often people ask others about having babies! You think you'll get a break after recently having one but it's as though they have nothing else to talk about lol. I've had the same questions and my lo isn't even 5 months. That said, we'd love another one...DH would prefer to wait about 2 years but I'm worried about the road ahead. There's a big part of me that thinks it may have been an egg quality issue- which would mean time isn't on my side. That said, how much of a miracle does that make my little man Smile

Seekingmiracles · 01/01/2017 11:43

Happy New Year ladies, I hope 2017 brings with it lots of happiness. Wether that be from finally finding your rainbow or from acceptance that maybe you won't, but be happy. Find the happiness in everyday, something big or something small. Even in your darkest moments there is always a reason to smile - your partners, your family, your friends or your pets.
In my darkest times my husband could always lift me up and I hope I did the same for him.
Wishing you all health, love and happiness, with a sprinkling of baby dust in the year to come. X

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 03/01/2017 14:08

I think I saw something again today when I wiped. I don't even know if I'm imagining things anymore. I don't even want to hope because it's going to end up hurting more. At least this time tomorrow I will be able to just wallow in the pain. I don't feel like myself and I don't know if medication or symptoms or just plain old depression and it's scaring me.

Waitingforamiracle · 03/01/2017 18:43

Aww Snoopy I really do hope everything is ok. It's horrible the waiting and not knowing. I will keep everything crossed for you that all is well tomorrow x

Seekingmiracles · 03/01/2017 20:49

Everything is tossed for you tomorrow Snoopy, I really hope you get a happy surprise tomorrow. X

OP posts:
Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 04/01/2017 15:36

Thank you x

There's a baby in there, measuring 9weeks 2days! I did my usual staring at the ceiling then bursting into tears. I've been such an idiot

Waitingforamiracle · 04/01/2017 16:08

Amazing news! Absolutely relieved and delighted for you Snoopy! Congrats x

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 04/01/2017 16:15

Thank you waiting. Obviously not out of the woods yet but I have to try and relax. Dr s said it's entirely normal to presume the worst as a means of self preservation but he was very positive.
