just wanted to say a quick hello, and to all that don't know, i got a bfp yesterday. im so scared, but i need all of your prayers please xx

cricri · 04/02/2008 11:02

Congratulations Lissie!!! Wonderful news, although I can quite understand how scared you must feel. Presumably you're going to be closely monitored by your consultant at LWH? I'm delighted for you and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is a sticky one for you.

scully · 04/02/2008 11:36

Congrats Lissi, great news
Hope everyone has a better week this week

sfxmum · 04/02/2008 11:40

Congratulations Lissie, really pleased for you.

A RL colleague/friend just told me she is 8 weeks pg. I am really pleased for her, but also relieved that I was genuinely happy. I felt a pang of sadness, but wasn't as devastated and furiously jealous as I had anticipated. This is the first pg announcement since I had my mc. Everyone is getting pg and having babies around me so I need to be strong about it.

Glad you had a good birthday SFX. Kate, keep up the 'I will be strong feelings'. I did have to force myself into work this morning but life must go on.

Big congratulations Lissie, I really hope this is the stickiest little baby bean ever x

hi all and thanks for all your thoughts and past experiences - it's a relief to know that i wont necessarily have to pass the sac (for some reason, the thought of it scares me!).

i am hoping that the worst is over after a weekend of heavy bleeding, cramping and clots things have finally started to slow a little. though i didnt see any sac pass, i hope that it just came out with the rest of the material so that i wont have to go for an erpc to clear things up as have already bled so much. will be having a scan on thurs to check if everything has come out.

(so after some mega paracetamol and a giant glass of wine) am in a slightly more positive frame of mind and for now am mentally trying to treat the whole thing as a late period (not sure if that's being in denial or what...)

kate thanks for your offer to come over - thankfully builders have now finished their job and managed to have hot water and working toilets for the weekend (what a luxury!). i do already have one dd (2.5 years) who really helped to pull me out of my first mc depression. hope all goes well tomorrow and that you dont have to wait any longer after that.

cece i just realised what cm means, and actually for the first time ever, i noticed when i ov'd the last time that my cm was pinky-brown too. i was a bit disturbed. we got pregnant that cycle, and well, the rest is now known. not sure if there is any correlation - i will ask my dr on thurs.

glad to hear that you had a good birthday sfxmum.

and congratulations to lissielou on bfp there is hope out there...

kate2179 · 05/02/2008 11:11

Hi everyone. This is the message I just posted on the knicker checkers thread - ADVICE PLEASE?!?!?!?

Morning all. I can't believe I'm about to type this...

Went for a scan this morning to confirm my 2nd mc. Doctor had already confirmed it with falling blood levels last week so really it was just a formailty to try to get them to book me in for an erpc as soon as poss. Should have been 6+5 today.

So, had the scan... and am measuring 6+5 today with a good heartbeat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't believe it!!!! I have never experienced such a rollercoaster before. Really don't know what to think now. Didn't see anyone at the hosp after the scan - sonographer was lovely and explained things brilliantly, let me look at the heartbeat for ages - would have stayed all day if she'd let me Plus I didn't want to see the witch nurse I saw last time who kept going on about 'nature being very cruel sometimes' and 'long slow progress resulting eventually coming to nothing'. Sonographer reckoned there was no point me seeing her anyway so was glad to follow her advice!

But I don't know what to think now... She said everything looks good, showed me the yolk sac, the corpus luteum, and something else that I can't remember the name of, shows up like a halo outside the sac. Said that was good too.

So where do I go from here?!??!??! My doc isn't working today but I've left a message with the surgery to call me... What would you advise? PLEASE HELP!!! Am going mad.... [terrified emoticon] but also [very cautious emoticon]

sfxmum · 05/02/2008 11:19

no advice or experience but

hope your doctor gets back to you soon more blood tests and a scan at 8wks?

cece · 05/02/2008 12:04

Wow Kate - what good news

Feeling a bit low today - had a phone call this morning from the hospital chaplain about the funeral tomorrow confirming the arrangements.

There will be 4 little babies

cricri · 05/02/2008 12:05

Wow Kate, that is fantastic news! I'm no expert, but it sounds as though you're definitely pg to me! Sonographers are not usually very forthcoming with information so if she told you everything was OK then it must be Plus the fact that you've seen a HB is a big step. I really hope your doctor gets back to you asap and can put your mind at rest (well, as much as possible) and I guess you just have to take it one day at a time from now on (again, easier said than done!). I'm really pleased for you!

sfxmum · 05/02/2008 12:26

cece a great big hug to you

woose · 05/02/2008 12:57

kate That is fab news. It sounds as if everything is going to be ok. This has made me feel more positive today. Amazing things can happen.

I have been feeing so sick and so emotional yesterday I burst into tears at work in the middle of the office, very embarrassing. Anyway after a chat with a good friend I decided to take the day off today and I have had a good sleep and now I am going to go and pick a sloppy DVD to watch. Annoyingly I have been thinking that because of the sickness everything is going to be ok. Yesterday I was sick 5 times on the way to work. Which was horrible.

Actually, one thing that this has taught me over the last few months is that life is so precious. I spend an awful lot of my time travelling to a job that I hate, I need to re-evaluate my life and put myself first sometimes. And also try and have some fun, which has been missing recently.

bunnyinheadlights · 05/02/2008 19:35

YAYYYYYYYYYYY Kate! That's great news! heartbeat is a very good sign!

bunnyinheadlights · 05/02/2008 19:36

cece sending you big hugs

KashaSarrasin · 05/02/2008 20:30

kate That is FANTASTIC news - but what an ordeal to have to go through! Was there a mistake with the blood results? In any case, seeing a hb at this stage is a very very good sign so fingers crossed your pg will be drama-free from now on!

cece Lots and lots of hugs from me, I'll be thinking of you and little Hope tomorrow. I hope everything goes as well as it can
