All welcome.

Fingers crossed Jools.

A little bit of spotting today, just when I wipe . I've never had a situation when spotting hasn't turned into a full mc, so feeling pretty this evening.

I'll try and get hold of a midwife tomorrow (on a bank holiday?) and see what she says.

Arse!

Joolsiam · 12/04/2009 19:34

Fingers crossed for you too Funtime

Joolsiam · 13/04/2009 08:11

OK, BFP this morning - 16DPO but I can't even summon up a smile No sore boobs, no nausea, in fact no symptoms whatsoever since I thought I felt implantation last week.

Conception Indicator says 1-2, but I should be 4+2 today, so surely that should read 2 - 3 if my HCG was rising as it should ?

I can't feel happy - just want to cry as I can't help feeling this pg is doomed already

Someone give me a good slap !!

Woohoo jools that is brilliant. You are pregnant! And the digital ones are always 2 weeks behind aren't they? Plus you could have ovulated a couple of days later than you thought. Understandable you are apprehensive after last time but this is a different pregnancy and you will be fine - it's your time! Well done.

I managed an easter MC yesterday - so had rubbish easter sunday - but on plus side feeling ok now and quite relieved it finally happened after all the waiting iyswim.

Joolsiam · 13/04/2009 16:54

Kay4MattTTC · 13/04/2009 16:54

Afternoon all.
This seems like a nice thread so wondered if i could join in?

Wont beet around the bush me and my DP have been TTC DC1 for about 10month. Been haveing problems with ovulating . We have a GOF very very regularly, but st of people around me that are already pg or people who already have a DC, but oh well. I am currently on CD13. So just waiting for ovulatiuon CM if it ever arrives.

Joolsiam · 13/04/2009 16:58

Kay - I have absolutely no intention of being unwelcome, but I've seen you copy and paste the same message onto a number of established threads - probably ten or more ??

It just seems strange to me, as most people only join a couple of threads. Are you looking for specific people or information ? At this rate, you will be logged on 24x7 just trying to keep up with people - leaves no time for BDE !!

Kay4MattTTC · 13/04/2009 17:12

hey Jools i am just trying to get as much support as possible and get some advice.
i come online every few hour or so while DP is working. and check if anyone has wrote to me. but when he is home i spend most of my time with him. and dont worry e make sure we have plenty of time for a GOF.

funtimewincies · 13/04/2009 18:37

Fabulous news Jools and completely understandable that you're feeling weird about it. It's going to take a while to sink in.

Spotting stopped after a few hours, but I phoned the mw this morning anyway. She's booked me into EAPU for a scan tomorrow afternoon, so should know what's going on soon.

Chocs and wine to iggy.

Joolsiam · 13/04/2009 18:52

Good that you're getting in to EPU quickly funtime. Will be thinking of you tomorrow and hoping this is a false alarm ...

Iggy - In a moment of madness, I splashed out on Sat on my favourite ever wine - a bottle of Oyster Bay (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc.

I've only had 2 glasses out of the bottle and now don't feel I can touch it now, so am sending it over - savour every mouthful

flintski · 13/04/2009 18:53

evening all - haven't been on for absolutely ages although have been lurking. Needed to log on to say CONGRATS to jools - I'm so pleased for you and really believe it will stick for you [keeping fingers crossed emoticon] - i understand that you will be worrying yourself silly for the next few weeks but it really is fabulous news and you should try (easier said than done) and enjoy it....

iggy - i'm so sorry to hear about your loss , I hope you are able to move on soon and start ttc again.

hope the mw brings you good news tomorrow funtime - you so deserve it.

yellow - pants that af got you - she got me too (v early this month after being very late last month!!) I am pretty much giving up TTC actively - going to go to docs again but have to move on now and face that it isn't happening for me (have updated the list)

oh and jools - my dds bday is the 17th Dec - its a fab time to have a birthday - she loves it!!!

hi guys,

jools got me. back from my hols, just been lurking. witch got me while away and again since been back. been a bit down lately so not so active on thread. so sorry for those that have had bad news. congrats for those that have had good news.

Jools, what can we say. go for gold. you can only go in for it with a positive attitude. As easy it is to feel anxious about previous loses this is a different pregnancy and no reason for this not to be 'the one'! i

as for me i am trying. to get thru. lots of stuff going on. errr trying not to be so negative.

BTW I am from new zealand - oyster is delicious!! Lap it up!

Joolsiam · 14/04/2009 08:27

Good to "see" you LovelyMonster

Didn't realise you were in NZ !! My mum is Kiwi, but has lived over here for over 40 years. She has just got back from a 9 week long holiday to relatives in Auckland, staying at their batch in Coromandel, walking the Milford Track, then visiting her brother who is now in Sydney - I'm not jealous

Hope your hols were good, despite AF. This is such a lucky thread, who will be next

Pinkyblue123 · 14/04/2009 09:06

Sorry you had such and awful Easter Iggy thinking of you

Congratulations Jools don't worry about no symptoms yet. In my tow successful Pg's I had no symptoms until I was 6 weeks ( then terrible MS until 5 months)

I going away for a few days will catch up with you guys next week.

I think I have definately ovulated this month as been temping and have had temp shift so fingers crossed!

kittycatcat · 14/04/2009 09:16

Hello all

Big Hugs for Iggy what a cr@p easter

Huge congrats to Jules that is fantastic news.

Sorry the witch got you Iggy

queenie1 · 14/04/2009 09:21

jools - congratulations!!! I found myself wondering over the weekend whether you were or not and so pleased to log on this morning and read your news!!! Be positive and keep saying to yourself this one WILL happen, symptoms or not!!!

funtime - I had a tiny bit of brown spotting last weekend and was so convinced it was all over. It stopped after 24 hours and I had a scan the next day and all was fine. Brown spotting is very common and doesn't have to mean the worst. I so hope you get a good scan later today.

iggy - sorry to hear you've had a difficult few days but at least it's done now and you can begin, hopefully, to move on. Thinking of you lots. xxx

Not much news from me. I'm 9 weeks and 5 days now and just praying I get through the next couple of days

funtimewincies · 14/04/2009 09:25

Thanks to all those who've wished me luck, I'm really nervous about the scan. Unfortunately, it was fresh pinky/red blood Queenie, so I've got a nasty feeling about it. It never got heavy enough for a proper pad, though, so I'm clinging on to that.

Hi to lovelymonster and a few who've been away for a bit.

queenie1 · 14/04/2009 09:41

funtime - that it has now stopped, though, is a good sign. can understand, though, why you feel so anxious. I so hope it goes well for you.

By the way, in my last post, I meant I was praying I get through the next couple of weeks so as to get to the magic 12 weeks (if only it was days!!!).

Yellowflowers · 14/04/2009 10:11

Sorry funtime I completely missed your message this weekend. Hope everything is okay. xx

How you feeling jools?

Welcome kay4mattTTC - Jools is right that you probably get the most out of MN if you get to know one or two particular threads properly but you are very welcome to make this one of them.

I am cd9. Am not temping this month - in fact it is last month before hospital appt so I am trying to just be relaxed and enjoy it before we enter rounds of tests etc.

Will update list in amoment

Completely unpregnant and normal and need to go out and buy more tests at lunchtime to convince myself this is real

The battery on the digi test I did yesterday is going to run out soon and then I'll start thinking I dreamt it !!
