MC Avengers - Chocolate cake anyone?

[mistlethrush]

I've started a new thread as the old one was full - hope everyone finds their way here OK.

quarkee know exactly what you mean baout not knowing means you don't have to worry. It took 6 weks for me to get af aftermy ERCP so maybe a little more patience (says she )

scully Good to hear your party went well. Ours was a great success too. All the girls were so well behaved and they all seemed to have a good time. DD said a big thank you to me last night when I looked in on her This monring she was talking about next years art and craft party...

quarkee, you're not being neurotic at all - that all sounds completely normal to me. I think you should text if it's driving you mad. x

I on the other hand am probably being neurotic enough for everyone. I've had this stomach thing for about a week - ever since what I thought might be implantation cramps. No obvious signs of real stomach upset or infection of any sort, just sore and tender (slightly more so on lower right hand side, so now I've convinced myself I have appendicitis). I know it could be one of a dozen things, or more likely nothing, but... have made an appointment to see doc tomorrow morning, as dread the thought that if I have some low level infection it might just render me infertile for ever! The first two weeks after m/c I didn't have any discomfort, so I'm just a bit worried. Anyone else who didn't have an ERPC experience anything like this?

I'm feeling really low and weepy right now, and dreading moving from our lovely little flat, even though we do really want to move to the new place (still haven't got a date yet, though, which is making me feel even more insecure).

Whinge, whinge, moan, moan. .

I mean 'test', not 'text', obviously!

Quarkee - know exactly how you feel RE: what's going on in your cycle. I bled for about 11 days and then had spotting on and off throughout my whole cycle. AF showed up last Monday, which was only 30 days post mc, but is still here a week later DH snickered a little last night when I came out of the bathroom and yelled "I hate my vagina!!!!!" I really did mean it though. Saturday night, bleeding seemed to stop and Sunday morning nothing, so I stupidly forewent a liner during the day and of course had a some more spotting at his mum's for lunch yesterday. I'm just sick of bleeding and even more sick of thinking about it nearly all day long, every day!

Anyway, sorry for the rant. But I wonder if anyone else has this happen to them and could give some advice - as I mentioned I thought AF was finished on Saturday evening and Sunday morning, but then had some spotting later on. I have some today too, but it doesn't really ever reach the liner, it's just there when I wipe, but it's bright red and what seems like a lot. Does that count as spotting or light flow?

I never thought I would ever be swapping knicker checking stories over the internet LOL - is this the 6th sign of madness I wonder???

Have decided to just forget about it for a few days (yeah, right) and test later on this week if still nothing. Dont FEEL pg but then I didnt with DS either. Have had a bit of a metallic taste in mouth but that could have been wishful thinking. Ho hum.

PrePG hold on in there, its got to stop at SOME point. Hope the doc is helpful daisy.

Re liners, Jo Brand calls them fairy hammocks....

prepg It happened to me. Post ERPC I bled for 3 weeks then had a week off before I got my AF. Had heavy AF for a week then thought it had stopped but it came back and the spotting continued until cd14. Thought it would never stop and was getting v. with it.

Even after it stopped I got some spotting when I was (I think) ovulating. That made me really !

Mentioned it to my consultant at the 6 week post ERPC appt a few days ago and he didn't think it was anything to worry about. Said he thought it was my uterus having a good clear out.

Hope AF leaves you alone soon.

Prepg - I think you don't need to worry until you never establish a proper cycle and carry on having odd bleeds and spotting for some time (ie well over month). Hope it all settles down soon!

Daisy - I have been being neurotic too, but w/e put a stop to that

Everyone seems a little down just now so I've just popped out and got a selection box of Krispy Kreme donuts for us all! The maple iced one is mine though

The lady-at-work-who-was-due-a-week-before-me had a little boy this morning. big sigh

(((hugs for Claire)))

Yes please - can I have the one with the lemon icing?

Yes you can, as I have my maple iced. That does sound nice though - is it a ring or a filled one? I don't like the filled ones I think thye're a bit sickly.

No, its just a ring one. And its got little lemon sprinkles that give a zesty tang on top too.

Oops, I just ate two in a row (a plain one and the one with the fake cream in the middle - yum). Sorry . I feel much better now . Thanks, Clare

mistle any particular reason why the weekend stopped your neurosis? I'm happy to learn...

PrePG - lol at your vagina rant!

Yes - af arrived. And its the first time for ages that I've even worried about 2ww, and its the first time for absolutely ages that I've been symptom spotting - sore breasts, niggley pains etc. Oh well. At least it meant I could have a glass of wine at the w/e! (diet is excusing modest amounts of wine - I mean they are fruit aren't they!)

Mistle

I am losing weight though, and cyber donuts help!

Oh mistle . Wine is indeed fruit. And think of all those calories you can have as wine since the only doughnuts you've had are of the cyber variety.

I'm now going out for cocktails and shall have one for you. With fruit in it, of course. I've decided I can't possibly be PG, as no sore boobs. x

Mistle wine is most definately fruit - a bit like those purees that say they make up your 5 a day - wine is the same - big hugs

Daisy have one for me - I am stuck at home but may have a glass myself as I too am convinced AF is lurking in the wings (of a liner no doubt)

Ive just helped myself to a vanilla creme KK - feel v sick now but it was worth it

Daisy - well, I did have sore boobs - for about 12 days - and that clearly didn't mean a thing! So perhaps you are becuase you haven't

Have been very decadent for supper - had some peas as well as salad !

All this talk of food, I'm not even hungry but......
And yes, wine is a food group all of its own
Had a scan this morning, sonographer said uterus lining still looked thick, no idea what that means, but even I could clearly see there was no longer any sac there. So back to the gynae tomorrow for the scan and blood results and hopefully she will say it has been a complete m/c and this is all finished with. Just a bit over hospitals right now

Hello ladies

I have been lurking for about 3 weeks now so thought I'd say hello.

I had a MC 3 weeks ago...early one....just shy of 7 weeks preggers.

I was wondering...we haven't been actively TTC this month as we were advised to wait a cycle first so that my body can get back into rhythm.

Was wondering though ... if I was to accidentally fall pregnant straight away after a MC, would it put the pregnancy at risk for any reason?

Has this happened to anyone?

I only ask as My DH and I have indulged only twice since the MC but I have a weird feeling.

mistle, cece, for you, it is so pants when AF gets you.

I'm feeling a bit better now although DH and I had a lovely "animated discussion" before bedtime last night so were too to want to go near each other. Not a great start to new cycle.
Still, he is going to take a day off next week so we can go somewhere nice. not sure where yet. any suggestions for nice days out in south east england? Not london - had enough for the time being.
Dungungirl - my SIL got pregnant straight away after both her MC's and I now have two beautiful nieces. The only thing they told her off for was that it would be hard to date accurately.
I was told categorically my my doc not to try straight away, as mine was a little complicated but wish i had ignored him...
might be preg now.

oh well - I am buying cakes, (great for my new healthy lifestyle!) who wants a chocolate fudge brownie?

xx

Thanks Lou.

I just looked at my calendar and realised, if I ovulated about 2 weeks after I stopped bleeding. Then that would have put end of last week as the fertile window.

Hmmm...I have a strange gut feeling...

I felt REALLY sick chopping the chicken last night.
And this morning feel a but blurgh...

Too early for any sort of morning sickness....but with my first pregnancy ( my DS is now 3! ) I did feel a little sea sick on and off for the first week until we found out we were preggers!

I shouldn't be getting hopes up.

Hello dungirl - welcome but sorry you had to join us.

mistle - lloks like we may be cycle buddies this month Mine is usually 31/32 days.

Hello cece

Thanks for the welcome even though like you said, wish I didn't have to be on this thread...I was getting all settled in on the EDD November thread.

Fingers crossed we will all graduate again soon.

However, I don;t know how soon I will as I have PCOS and it took me 14 months to get PG this last time! So I might be here a long long time....

dungun sorry you had to join us but welcome.

sorry to everyone that has been visited by TEW - hope you get a BFP next month.
