Ok I'm back.....

News not fantastic. In summary... scan wasn't clear so either v early pregnancy or still stuff left over from ERPC. Sonographer said looked more like retained products (I so love that term!!) to her. Got sent to EPU for blood test and have to go Friday for another. If HCG levels from those are high enough then I could be in v early pregnancy and have to wait 2 weeks for another scan. If HCG levels are not high enough then another ERPC.

I'm just really fed up with this all dragging on and not knowing what's happening.

Hows the TTC going playing what day are you on and how long are your cycles???? yes that is my nose you can see poking in your business.

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 17:35

so sorry ses15 when is dh back from spain. Is your friend still with you?

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 17:37

Thanks LL. Friend went about half an hour ago. DH back tomorrow night. Am meant to be taking my mum out for a meal tonight (delayed mothers day treat for her). She knows about mmc 8 weeks ago but nothing since. Don't know whether to go and whether to tell her everything.

In fact that phrase - don't know - pretty much sums things up at the moment!

Playingthewaitinggame · 11/06/2008 17:42

Oh Ses, I am sorry that the scan did not go well. I really hope it gets resolved soon.

LL, CD13 today. This year my cycles have ranged between CD31-CD38. My ov has ranged between CD18-CD25. I have had 2 long periods (38 and 37) both times I was stressed during time I expected to ov so I think thats why I oved late. Stress hugely effects my cycle. So if I can keep relaxed and calm I am hoping to ov between CD18-21.

oh an poke away, I know the rules of this thread now, you have to share everything and you will be constantly badgered to test.

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 18:00

Ses I think you should go tonight. Dont be alone, and confide in your mum she I am sure will be upset if you went through this on your own...... Not that you are on your own we are all here for you when ever you need us......

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 18:04

Thanks LL. My friend and DG are advising against as they know my mum. I still feel like I should go as a)I've cancelled this treat on her once before (after mmc!) b) she works at haematology lab and will probably see bloods coming in c) don't really think I should just stay in on my own and d) you neer know she may suprise me and be supportive without all her fussing and making it all about her!

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 18:09

Oh ses I am sorry....

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 18:13

It's ok. Think I will go and maybe try and pick her up a bit earlier and have a talk in the car. Will try and be v clear with her that I don't want her fussing and don't want her to get all uptight about why I haven't already told her and why I took friend today and not her...

Anyway, enough about me!! How's everyone else???

Playingthewaitinggame · 11/06/2008 18:16

We are all ok.

Don't worry about sharing, it sounds like you've had a rough day and you need to share. Thats what I love about MN and particularly this thread, we have a laugh but we are always there for each other when someone needs it.

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 18:18

Thank you!

Playingthewaitinggame · 11/06/2008 18:22

Don't mention it, everyone here will always be supportive and give advise when you need it.

Wish I could hang around but I have just noticed the time and really need to go home!!!

Go out tonight, its better than staying in alone. If it feels right share if not at least getting out will distract you for a few hours.

Bye everyone.

Rachrox · 11/06/2008 18:28

Hiya ladies,
How have all your days been? So sorry Ses, hope ure ok?
How long have you all been on mn? Seems like you all know each other really well, i think its fab

Speak soon x

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 18:38

Rach when are you due? What day po are you..

kookykid · 11/06/2008 18:43

Sorry ses ... must be v frustrating not to get any answers.

calsworld · 11/06/2008 18:46

Evening all, LL it must be the day for it, DS had his MMR last tuesday and he's got a raging temperature now....have tried calpol and it hasn't come down at all, so just topped up with some calfen.

Ses, sorry you weren't given a definitive answer today, I've thought of you lots today, it must be really hard to go through, feel free to post as and when. x

Phoned mum for a chat and she burst into tears, she had to have one of the cats put down today, her favourite one and very unexpected , poor mum, she's having a real tough time as my nan has cancer and she provides a lot of care to both her and my grandad. Wish I lived closer so I could give her a hug.

Anyhoo, you don't want to hear about that, but it made me sad...

Teuch, I can't rely on trumps as sign of pg as I'm always trumpy!!

Ses - sorry about your news. Hope you go out tonight and that your Mum turns out to be as supportive as you need her to be.

Rach - if you're due to test on Friday, I say just do it! Tomorrow morning is only 1 day early and if neg you can always try again on Friday....and Saturday... and Sunday . Luckily there's nothing that stops you testing as much as you like!

I'm supposed to be waiting until Sunday and there's absolutely no chance of that happening (have already tried twice!!!!!)

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 18:53

Thanks to all you wonderful people for all your kind words/thoughts.

Have decided to go out with Mum. Have texted her to say I'll pick her up 15 mins earlier than planned.

the more I think about it the more I now think that I'm not pregnant. If I was I was expecting to be 7 weeks as got my first BFP on 17th May. That would have shown up today. I'm meant to have a week off work next week (nothing planned until the end of the week) don't really want to have to waste it having ERPC!

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 19:04

Off out now. Catch you later if anyone's still up when I get in!

lixanismapolium · 11/06/2008 19:05

Hope it goes OK Ses, thinking of you

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 19:09

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 19:12

lixanismapolium · 11/06/2008 19:16
