aww anniemac I so so hope it is a BFP for you but leave it to Friday now promise?

same for you scorpio, when is AF due?

scorpio1 · 16/05/2007 17:08

af due tomorrow. im not testing for a good few days now, give af time to show!

plummymummy · 16/05/2007 17:56

Thanks tigers and bbabymumma - still cautious though. Have a clearblue digital to test with tomorrow but I am only CD25 so it could still be a chemical pg. Annie, I am really keeping my fingers crossed for you. You have a short cycle like me so that's why it could be such a faint line. I would only be 4 weeks pg on friday, whereas most women are about 5 weeks when they find out. Of course that means we then have to wait a whole 3 weeks for a heartbeat scan but as others have pointed out - more times to ttc.

MamaMaiasaura · 16/05/2007 21:10

plummy I was only 4+1 when got bfp so understand the whole wait thing. They did scan on 4+3 - couldnt see much apart from gestational sac.. thats why i have the fab scan yesterday when saw bean heart beating away. I know it will seem like a long wait but it will pass. I am now waiting for the next 6 weeks to pass just to be able to relax a bit more. My ds on the other hand said tonight he wishes time would slow down so story time lasted lots longer!

Good luck anniemac hope u get your bfp

Scorpio - very impressed with your patients .. those superdrug tests are really cheap..

I really should stop lurking I am too darn nosey

MamaMaiasaura · 16/05/2007 21:11

yes but you did say that it was the first pink line you'd had.

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:25

Are you going to test again annie? Maybe in a couple of days? I tested with a clearblue digital this morning and it was positive so unless all those tests I've done are wrong, I definitely have HCG in my urine. Now I just have to hope it is a viable pregnancy. It is going to be a long 3 weeks. Sorry if I don't seem grateful, it's just that I'm scared of losing it.

goingfor3 · 17/05/2007 08:26

Congratulations plummymummy I'm really happy for you. I hope everything goes well!

tigerschick · 17/05/2007 08:29

Well done Plummy Got everything crossed for you.

lissielou · 17/05/2007 08:37

oh plummy, im so happy for you, you deserve it!

can you push for an early scan? surely with an ep (that is you isnt it?) in your history they should give you one?

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:39

Thank you ladies Mrs McJnr and awen if you come back to lurk please note that I am going to stay on the ttc thread for a bit until I feel reassured that all is going to be ok. I very much look forward to joining you on the due in Jan thread though

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:43

Thanks lissie - I can turn up myself at Kings epu but I want to wait til it's 7 weeks so that they can check for heartbeat. I think I will just be more preoccupied with the whole thing if I get an earlier scan as all it will tell me is that there is a blastocyst - nothing else. Of course, if I was to start spotting or bleeding, then I would go for a scan.

sweetkitty · 17/05/2007 08:44

plummy - many congratulations am sending you loads of virtual baby glue for your tiny little bean, please hang around here too so we know how you are doing

awen - thats great news about the scan hope the next 6 weeks goes well until the magic 12

anniemac - give yourself another few days honey as long as AF stays away theres always hope

scorpio - any news? or are you staying away from testing today?

this thread seems so positive today I hope the BFPs and scan results rub off on the rest of us, lets have bumper Due in Jan and Feb threads

lissielou · 17/05/2007 08:45

ok, (you have more willpower than me!) just take it easy sweetheart x

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:53

Isn't this awful.....last night I was reading a pregnancy book and it said high levels of HCG can be an indicator of a downs baby. So then I'm thinking what if my early positive tests mean that I've got high levels of HCG...........etc etc. Wtf? I have been praying for high levels of HCG to support the pregnancy and now I am finding reasons to worry if they are high. I really think I am losing it.

lissielou · 17/05/2007 08:55

totally natural after all youve been thru x

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:58

Yes but this neurosis is hardly "taking it easy is it"

plummymummy · 17/05/2007 08:59

Doh - I meant "taking it easy" is it?

anniemac - A while ago I did a test and it was -ve so I threw it away. That night - over 12 hours after taking the test - dh and I were talking about it and I fished it out the bin (I know, I know) to show him and there was a VERY clear +ve on it. If it's after the 10 mins it doesn't count. Sorry

BTW - I got a bfn this a.m. - just tested out of curiosity so not really worried
