TTC After MC 12: Hopeful Twats and Emotional Wrecks welcome!

[BertieBotts]

Come one, come all, new and old, no-one wants to be here, but at least we're glad we've got each other :)

Hope your stay here is short.

Now, some BFPs if you please and BFNs for those who are waiting for them too!

Pom Pom Pom Pom . This is my cheering and saying get a FRER!

Squeeeeee @lime this is amazing ! Sit tight ! Gosh. Leaky eyes.

Ooh we seem to be on a roll! Keep them coming ladies!

No bleeds since Saturday but as they didn't scan I am Just hopeful it stuck- they will not scan for another week :( am 8 weeks tomrrrow!

Off to the rmc today which I am
Bricking it- what happens if they are cross we got pg? What happens if I should have been on meds and scuppered this all? Barely slept with worry! What happens if they are cross I am Pg and kept my appt- despite epu and gp and a&e all agreeing I should go? Wahhhbbb.

Good luck Stuck im sure they will be friendly and hopefully you can get some reassurance from them

Stuck I'm sure they won't be cross and I'm sure they'll understand you've followed advice. Just a week to go! That's not too long in the scheme of things. Download some distracting crap mobile games to take your mind off it.

Ooh, hotcookie, congratulations! We are most definitely on a roll! Yippee!

Stuck, let us know how it goes today. I'm sure they'll be absolutely fine at the rmc. Might be able to give you some reassurance scans?

Mouselove, are you taking anything for short luteal phase? Has started to worry me that's what might be up with sudden 24 day cycles the last two months.I'm on 50mg B6 a day anyway (to try to limit HG if I do get pregnant again) which I understand can help but I've heard agnus castus is good too? Not sure if I am overthinking things...

Stuck I'm sure they won't be cross. These things happen and you want a baby so much I'm sure this has happened before. Good luck today.

Sound the HT klaxon!!! cd 20 and 6dpo and feel I might have a bit more cm in pants than normal. Probably will do a pregnancy test tomorrow. I have some ic to curb my urge to pee on stuff.... we shall see. It's infectious all this bfp talk!

I've ordered FRERs from amazon, so will do one Saturday. I'm just so much in shock and really worried it will turn out to be a chemical.
I work a job with significant hazards for pregnant people but haven't told my boss yet, as it hasn't sunk in (and I haven't even seen my DH yet, just sent him pictures via Telegram 😱
Last time I was in shock and a bit excited, this time I also have significant anxiety as well...
I totally didn't expect the line, thought I was being a HT but felt rubbish yesterday with sore boobs so thought I'd poas this morning!

Step away nope I only take folic acid and vitamin d but I'm hyperthyroid and take medication for that also. I have my specialist appointment in an hour so I'm going to ask some questions. I'll let you know if he recommends anything that might help you also.

Stuck good luck!!

Cookie save your FRER for after af now. You being worried won't change the outcome so you may as well enjoy, you're pregnant until someone tells you otherwise or hands you a baby. Congratulations.

mouse Period should have arrived today-always come on overnight. I'm not going to test again until saturday, when I might use the same internet cheapy to see if it's darker!
But thank you-I am TRYING not to worry, but it's bloody hard...

Oh ladies, I've just been to the drs to ask all my questions. I showed them my test and she said "it's negative" it needs to be as dark as control!

What the hell! What a load of crap if ever I heard it. They did one in Drs and said no line so not pregnant. Wait til Aug 20 and they might run bloods!

I'm so shocked! Isn't a line a line?! Doesn't the dr read mumsnet?!

And if I'm not pregnant... my op was at the end of May so I've clearly got something wrong if I'm still testing positive?

Another wonderful example of the NHS yet again a continuation of the great care I've had during my mc.

Lime! WTF? A line is a bloody line, everyone knows that. It's not a bloody opk. Ok so you wait a few days and pee on a digital one? I really hope all is ok, we all saw it, and we are honest, if I couldn't see it I'd have said.

I'm just catching up after a friend's wedding yesterday.

So, congratulations to cookie, and lime, because what the actual bloody hell? That is not negative. When I rang my doctor stressing about a faint test last time they say, "well did you read the instructions because usually a line is a positive, regardless of how dark it is." And NO test instructions say it needs to be as dark! I'd be FURIOUS! And an absolute bloody mess. You poor thing!! I really feel for you. Have you taken another since?

So so sorry to see mulder back on here gutted for you x

Ok just went back a few pages to relook at it lime and I can defo see it. It's faint, I'll give her that but defo there. Ok sit tight, wait a few days to when your period would have been and test again. EVERYTHING crossed for you though. Xx

Rmc appt was with the clinic owner prof mayonda and he was great. He didn't think the pregnancy could have coped with the amount of bleeds that a&e reported so wanted me to go to epu tomrrrow
For a scan. If in the small chance it is viable still , he gave me a prescription for pred( steroid) and progesterone but if I had miscarried like he thought to not take it .

So emerged from clinic all sad and went to find out when to start queuing for epu from the lovely receptionist who knows me
Well from 3 mc and last week , queued 3 hours last week and it is only
Open 8.30 to 11. Also there was the head of the unit who had looked after us each time and she said ... you cannot wait for this - too much worry! Will scan you right now! So did! How amazing was she! And she was thrilled to see a little wriggly bean with a clear head and rump and heartbeat still growing! 8 weeks tomorrow. So can take the drugs and keep positive. Still have a huuuuuuuge clot / haematoma which she said is not likely to impact the baby but will
Likely come away and I will bleed heavily but to keep positive. Am sooooo happy ! Been a looooong journey! Back there in 2 weeks or before if I feel worried :been told to go as much as I need.

Wooo! Back to clinic in a month for checkup. Now to chase midwives to book in!

And breatheeeeee.

Lime a line is a line is a line. They don't show up if there is no hcg present. Fuckwits.

Sorry for the very hurried message before, the pure anger of lime's gp experience made me post in panic!

To all those stressing about cycle lengths and when things are happening - I hear ya! I'm now cd 20 but have had no other ovulation signs. I still have all the symptoms and have been so good just ignoring it all and not testing because I've been busy. However, now all my busyness has slowed and I'm back to HT phase. I also still have terrible cystitis and it's now been four days. I'm going to give the gp a call to ask for some antibiotics but I'm torn whether to test first or not? I wouldn't usually test on cd 20, but for those following this month's stress, I'm not entirely sure I am on cd 20 and have all these bloody symptoms. Would it matter if I was put on antibiotics and was pregnant? (In a totally ideal situation of course, even writing it I feel like such a bloody idiot). And those that have also got to know me, know how I actually don't like poas and like to leave it until a date I have assigned myself a week after af would be due. Which is why I'm hesitating. Advice welcome!

stuck that is just wonderful news! What lovely people. Please don't go far and keep us posted, all the happy news really does make me feel so much better. It gives me hope. X

Wait, another message, stuck! Amazing news! So so so pleased for you. What a relief! Look after yourself, take it easy, keep us updated!
