kensgirl · 03/07/2007 21:21

Cogartulations Jules!

Sorry to see you back here lissie, hope you are holding up...I know you're not,a big hug coming your way.

Goood to see you Torres, hope your holiday did you good. We are going to book somwhere this weekend, as it is cd1 for me toaday (sigh..). This is the start of my 9th cycle since the mc, I'm now wondering whether to go to the GP. Its actually only December so 6.5 months since mc, but I have short cycles. I;m feeling a bit frightened of what they will say though.

How are you Popsy? Did you go to the GP yet?

Hello to everyone else XX

kensgirl · 03/07/2007 21:24

XPOsts with you Winkygirl and Ronshar......sorry! Good to see you bth.

Ronshar - are you a teacher? I am , and hate having my hols at the most expensive time of year... do travel agents think we earn megabucks?

ronshar · 03/07/2007 21:40

No luv I have dd who is 7. She is finishing year 2.
I think travel agents should be put in the same place as Estate agents! Making prices up as they go along just so they can buy a new tosspot BMW!
Sorry it does get on my nerves!

popsy76 · 04/07/2007 08:56

Morning lovely ladies
So much been going on
First of all... CONGRATUMALATIONS jULES99 SO CHUFFED FOR YOU - SEE i WAS RIGHT THIS IS STILL AVERY LUCKY THREAD ...oops caps lock not shouting honest!
Hi Basil will be thinking of you
Hi nh good to hear you are okay - I kind of guessed that was what you were doing but just wanted to hear your voice
Hi lissie bloddy hell - have you been out and punched something/someone? I would have if I were you... or at least gotten totally wasted (but whats fresh
Hi Torres welcome back hon - LOVE listening to your holiday tales - We are off to spain in two weeks - posh hotel in Barcelona then down to my house (not posh at all but was my nans so is home from home). CANNOT wait for it!!!... Rioja and salted almonds...popsy heaven!
DH and I at it every other day - safe to say I have a raging UTI as can't pee after doing the deed grrr but also feels good to be being pro0active and DH is defo on the wagon with me now (i.e. working with me - he like a problem to tackle ha ha)
Hey kensgirl not been to see doc yet but sounds like you should - at least they will have you on their records? I know he won't give me clomid as they say you have to be trying for a year before they call it infertility - I went on web and found NHS guidlines for docs and for patients for this kind of thing (NICE doc i think it is called) - was useful to see what he will say. Maybe I am wrong... I hope so. Anyway - signs a bit more positive here - EWCM is back at the rightish time (week 2 not 4) and have spots on chin - never thought would be glad to see them . Hoping this means system getting back to normal at least - spugs your history is same as mine - lets hope our bodies play ball this month eh?
Hey ronshar and winky you ladies are keeping us going - we will be PG you'll see - and be fab mums!!!!
Hi pinkslipper welcome to MN mothershippers - hope being here gives you some comfort - we are all totally insane so you'll feel fine in comparison
Finally - boss laid into me infront of everyone yesterday...so glad have decided to leave - more amunition to change my life - I saw that chocolate artilcle and says stressful job really increase risk of MC - something rings very true with me...watch this space no more MMAS popsy - am gonna be super ZEN (who am I kidding?

ronshar · 04/07/2007 09:13

I didnt know that about the stress mc thing. I resigned from my job at roughly the same time as I must have lost my little one! Can I sue them??

alittlebitshy · 04/07/2007 09:20

Had a bit of a wobble - a mum in dd's class looks like she is slightly pregnant. I remember a conversation with her a few months ago where she said one was enough for her so i'm rather shocked (i don't think it's too many doughnuts, it looks rather firm and bump shaped).

waaah - i should have had a bump - i'd have been almost 5 months now, and then i should have been 8 weeks re the 2nd m/c. aaaaaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhh.

ronshar · 04/07/2007 09:28

She has probably been drinking too much larger. It gives me a nice firm tummy, ok it is bigger than Id like but hey Im not complaining.
Be strong Littlebit your time will come and when it does you will be a magnificently beautiful pregnant lady and a fantastic mum. Just hold on to fun practise bits for now.

EllieG · 04/07/2007 12:47

Hello all
So sorry to hear your news lissie x
Nice to hear you back nh - glad you're feeling more positive x
Great news jules99!
And hello etc to everyone else x

AnguaVonUberwald · 04/07/2007 13:28

Just starting my 2ww, (CD22 but long cycle). Had MMC last time at 8 weeks, so really worried about the whole thing.

Got PG so easily first time, and thought the while thing would be simple, had no idea whole thing could be this stressful.

Just wanted to say AAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGG

EllieG · 04/07/2007 14:11

Same as me angua! I had MMC at 8 weeks too and I hadn't even planned my PG. Now I am I can't believe how complicated it is!

siameez · 04/07/2007 15:30

I had a mmc at 8 weeks too, Angua & Ellie, in our second month trying. I keep trying to remember we've only been ttc since January, but when there's been a mc in the middle of that it feels like years. Trying to feel positive though - I had a proper heavy period this month, very different from the last two since the mc which I didn't even need tampons for so I'm hoping this is a sign of returning fertility or something?

Hello to all the new ladies! So sorry you have to be here but the more the merrier for keeping our spirits up. I find it doesn't seem to get easier over time as such, it's just different. Last night I dreamt my ex-stepdaughter was pregnant and due on my due date and realised I would have been coming up for 5 months. I'd be showing and it would be kicking and the pregnancy would be safe(ish). Is anyone else living through a kind of imaginary pregnancy-that-couldn't-be in their heads? I wish I could forget how pregnant I would have been!

Welcome back Torres and everyone else who's popped up again! It's hard to catch up on all the posts but nice it's so busy.

siameez · 04/07/2007 15:33

Lissie, realised I missed your news! I'm so gutted for you. Huge hugs - or a handy punchbag to borrow, whichever you prefer

torres · 04/07/2007 15:55

Hi all, having a strange day. Went to the GP before my holiday to talk about how upset I've been and to get a referral for counselling. She was very good and talked about my new found hypochondria that everything has gone wrong with my body since the mc. She told me to pay for a private scan to put my mind at rest and keep me positive. Well I went along and am now not positive and extremely stressed. I've been told I have a thin womb lining, which is too thin to get pg! Of course, was told this by the scanner and not a doctor and now can't get hold of my GP so my ability to conjure up disasterous scenarios is running riot. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi AMT-I'm glad you were pushy! I think we're all conditioned to hold back but it really is worth kicking up a fuss when its something so dear to us.

Basil- returning an even bigger hug to you xx How did you get on? I have everything crossed. The tight jeans sound a good excuse to splash out on a new wardrobe.

winky- hello hon, how are you? I see youre on CD21- do you have a while to wait til AF yet?

Hi Ronshar- sorry you've got to wait until August for a holiday- what a pain, especially as it feels so wintry here right now.

Hi Kensgirl- glad to hearyoure booking a holiday, it will give you something lovely to focus on- and an excuse for a shopping spree. I would make an appointment with the doctors if its on your mind. I think its best to be armed with info, especially as my brain can conjure up so many alternative what ifs? that it hurts my head!

Popsy!! hello hon. you def don't seem MAAS yet, well done! your spanish trip sounds great- bet you're counting the days. Hope the UTI clears up, theyre horrid arent they.

alittlebit- sorry to hear you having a bad day. I'm sporting a proto-bump following the holiday which is 100% blubber so lets hope that woman has been overindulging too.

Ellie, Angua- hello, hope you're both ok

siameez- hello! reading the posts whilst I was away, you seem to be a near neighbour! Hope to meet you for cakes in August. I find it difficult to stop thinking about how pg I would have been too. We do torture ourselves don't we?

lissie- not heard much from you, are you ok xx

lissie · 04/07/2007 16:12

im ok, bit low now. disappointed rather than shocked. starting to think that we will never have another baby.

EllieG · 04/07/2007 16:14

Hey torres - sorry you're having a tough time at the moment. Don't have any advice I'm afraid but am sending sympathetic vibes and hugs x

I have a really crampy tummy today - probably AF as has been weirdly earlier over the last few months since MC. But am on CD 18 - surely that's not normal?
Anyone else hyper-sensitive to every twinge their body makes?

MrsMcJnr · 04/07/2007 16:17

Hello ladies I?ve just got back from a lovely relaxing holiday in the sun and thought I?d pop in and see how you all are and to let you know that I?ve often thought of you all and sent you good vibes Can?t possibly catch up on 2 ½ weeks so I?ll read today?s and you can let me know any major news

EllieG · 04/07/2007 16:18

Glad you had a good time MrsMC!
Am going away in 2 and a half weeks - can't wait!

torres · 04/07/2007 16:20

Hi ellie- thanks xx I have been having weird mid cycle cramps as well (which added to my hypochondria!). I think there were lots of posts towards the end of our last thread, it seems lots of us are suffering these mad symptoms. Popsy said she was reading a book about women who think too much- I really do wish my head had an off switch on the side so I could get half an hours peace! Hope AF stays away for you

Hi lissie, what happens next for you? Has anyone got an 'action plan' for you? How is your DH?

MrsMcJnr · 04/07/2007 16:25

Popsy ? and how are you hon? I?ve just come back from Spain, it was fabulous, not long now until your hols!

Jules ? FABULOUS hon! I am delighted for you, everything crossed for a happy and healthy pregnancy.

alittlebitshy ? sending huge hugs xxx

Hello EllieG

Sending lots of good vibes to all the new ladies I don?t know ? this thread really helped me heal after my MC ? lovely ladies all of them, no one will be here for long

Torres ? sorry to hear you are having a hard time sending hugs. I don?t know much about linings but don?t they fluctuate throughout the cycle?

Lissie ? I am so sorry hon hugs to you too.

torres · 04/07/2007 16:35

Hi mrsmc- glad to have you back and to hear you so happy and well

I don't know much/anything about womb linings either but theorectically the cd I was scanned on should have been the thickest. Been trying to get a GP appointment to no avail and have worked myself up that I am barren.

AnguaVonUberwald · 04/07/2007 16:52

EllieG, thats excatly it, its gotten so serious and complicated and STRESSFUL!

Siameeze. We took a long break from TTC, got married inbetween and I didn't want our wedding/honeymoon to be all about TTC. We have just started again and I find that i expect it to happen straight away - which is silly and stressful.

I just want the 2WW to be over and to KNOW, one way or another. AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGG

basilbrush · 04/07/2007 17:32

Laydees -

Just a quickie to say all seems to be fine, bean has grown at normal rate and heart beat seen.

Only bizarre thing is they tell me I'm about a week less pg than I thought which would mean I conceived on the day I got bfp

Off on me hols tomorrow, back in 3 weeks

Drink lots of wine for me xx
