Aw 4ever, it's still early don't lose hope. Test again in a few days hun.

mermaidspurse · 27/03/2009 09:36

I was actually scared to come look see this morning 4ever so a bit and a bit cos of PLAN and also a bigat consultant. It dos'nt take much to send a blinking email in between golf, a visit to the Bentley dealership and a manicure does it?
This is an intrepid move on the PLAN front. And yes look on the BFN as a sign, lots of positve thoughts.
curly morning lovely! I have got really bad pmt, stomped around shouting the morning mantra 'teeth, shoes, TEEEETH, etc' to find ds trying to practice happy birthday on his guitar... nasty grumpy me had to then melt in a puddle.

4everhopeful · 27/03/2009 10:13

Thanks ginger & mermaid story of your DS made me wanna cry.. how very sweet & how desperate I am to have those times when DDDDDDDDDDS or D would make life complete with those angelic moments

Feel like plan of attack dampened by secretary at Gr Portland who is temping & said doesnt know how to book tests so someone can call me back on tues?!?!?!? Thought OK, wont get sad about BFN will get positive, now gotta wait. Phoned her back & said look time not on our side all i need is consultaion & anti paternal test & she still dithered but said will now try & get back to me this afternoon . Bloody frustrating. Also sent mail to NHS doc & it bounced back cos his mailbox is full! (maybe thats a good thing!)

Oh huff stomp sigh. Stoooooooopid hormones. Been doing well this week after a wobbly start & now can feel the decline... Grrrrrr. Now have agonising AF too look forward too. Yea.

4everhopeful · 27/03/2009 10:22

Oh sorry just see what a big rant that was

Secretary just called back & said can see us this tues! OMG now im really crapping it for some reason! Didnt think it would be so soon! I feel really really nervous!

mermaidspurse · 27/03/2009 10:41

Blimey I only nipped out for half an hour and you got all that done 4everhopefullynotonamissionformuchlonger
We will all be here with our elbows on the bar listening to all your nuggets about your dc, sipping our luke warm shandys Have you told your dh whats happening on Tuesday yet?

4everhopeful · 27/03/2009 11:09

Sometimes i'm a tad manic hon Spoke about making appt with DH this morning on way to work, & then about 4 more times since(!) We have gone through every long step of this together hand in hand, even down to him unwrapping PG tests & waiting outside while I wee on it then both looking together at same time for result! We're a bit silly like that! Just want him 100% included cos maybe my body but its his babies too.. Just feel soooo very nervous now! (& less manic!)

mermaidspurse · 27/03/2009 13:15

nothing wrong with being manic and can't say I blame you. Love the supportive unwrapping I guess thats how you manage having such a lovely dh step by step beside you.
I will have to go and re read all that stuff again about these LIT tests. You are
bound to feel nervous, flammin rollercoaster.

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 13:35

Hello ladies, can I spend a little time in your beach hut? I'm alternating between this thread & the mc thread at the mo.

I've just speed-read the last few pages, Blue I too am having acupuncture & am having my 2nd session tomorrow morning.

I laughed at you all taking about waiting (or trying to) to do a hpt as I'm on the 2ww after having my 1st af post mc & I've already done 3 hpt's & af is not even due until next week!! With the pregnancy I miscarried I had a bfp on day 25 so I'm trying to hold off a few more days before testing again.

I've been wanting to see a medium for ages but have not heard of anyone good near me (Surrey). GG did you feel a bit more relaxed after she had told you that you'd be pregnant soon?

The things we resort to eh?!

VJaybigpants · 27/03/2009 13:57

Hi mls welcome to the hut, are you symptom spotting on your 2ww?

Awww 4ever when is your af actually due? Did you test early? Your DH sounds lovely it's good you've got each other. Good luck on Tuesday, what time is your appointment?

Hi to everyone else xxx

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 14:01

Hello VJaybigpants yes have been spotting since yesterday. Have been trying to work out if it is a)implantation bleeding b)post mc bleeding c)pre af bleeding d)bleeding nothing at all!!

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 14:05

Also have sore boobs (or am I imaging it?) & have been weeing more often (perhaps I'm imagining that too?)

Why is it so hard to relax & be 'normal'

VJaybigpants · 27/03/2009 14:05

Could be implantation bleed, don't give up just yet. Fingers are frimly crossed for you. When are you testing?

4everhopeful · 27/03/2009 14:11

Hello mls lovely to see you over here! Yes we can all relate to the 2ww & testing way too early on here!

AF is due on tues vjay but think test was right somehow, so got appt at Gt Portland for tues at 1.45pm... Hopefully it will be the answers we've been desperate for!

Thanks mermaid as always for understanding my crazed & deranged moments earlier! Was worried Id scared everyone away! Yes, do check LIT for yourself possibly? Did you get back onto your consultant & arrange another appt?

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 14:11

Gonna hold off until Sunday (using an abnormal amount of restraint!).

My head is telling me that of course I'm not pregnant, & my heart is saying 'but you might be, just might'. I know I won't be & I'm just setting myself up for a fall aaarrrgggggg must stop obsessing!

VJaybigpants · 27/03/2009 14:19

4ever if af hasn't turned up by Tuesday, will you test again before your appt?

mls please don't give up yet. Do you normally have spotting before your af arrives like this?

4everhopeful · 27/03/2009 14:25

I will test again on mon probably, just to be sure! Apparently LIT test can be done when PG although treatment cant

Oh poor mls we can all relate to that desperate desire to be PG again, its one of the horrible emotions that come with MC.. I do hope you're not having too hard a time but its very natural..

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 14:27

Since having my dd 18 months ago I have had spotting before af arrives. My doctor told me it was ok & my body getting back to normal, I was very sceptical. In Jan before I new I was pregnant (with the baby I mc'd) I had 5 days of spotting. I've since thought that if everything was ok with the baby then maybe I wouldn't have had the spotting. I know I should just try & not analyse everything to the nth degree but it is so hard isn't it.

MummyLovesSadie · 27/03/2009 14:29

Thanks 4ever, I'm actually feeling quite upbeat.... that is of course until the bloody bitch af arrives!

VJaybigpants · 27/03/2009 14:41

It is hard mls but that is what we are all here for, stay positive girlie xxxxx

mermaidspurse · 27/03/2009 15:43

VJaybigpants · 27/03/2009 16:30

You are making me sooooo hungry, which isn't hard granted . Happy birthday for Sunday mermaid, as 4ever said, spoil yourself

GracieGirl · 27/03/2009 17:49

Blimey you lot have been busy whilst I've been sleeping - well done 4ever for getting an appointment for tuesday.

MLS glad to see you on this more positive thread. I think I've started something with this psychic thing! Yes it did make me feel more relaxed but still swinging from one extreme to the other with maybe she's right, maybe I'll have twins or 2 babies close together then swinging over to thinking its all a load of rubbish, then swinging back and swinging back again, and then some MLS style banging head on table!! I think it has occupied my mind a bit though and so spending a bit of my thinking about miscarriage time on thinking about what psychic woman said instead. Which can't be a bad thing.

Mermaid - Happy birthday!!!! Have a lovely weekend. I'll leave the singing to your DS, as it might hurt your ears!!

Curlywurleelittlepants · 27/03/2009 18:45

gracie thanks for the link and the lovely new name. As I said, I'm not feeling optimistic this month but there's always hope. Give your pregnant friend a big hug from all of us, that's wonderful news

4ever it is only day 24 for you, isn't it? You are to ignore that result honey, it is too early (curly gets bossy again) xxx

Mermaid you make me giggle picturing you stomping around. And 4ever, maybe there are some hormones kicking around. I'm still hopeful that they are the pregnant kind, rather than AF.

MLS how lovely to see ya. I'm getting a wee bit excited for you, even if it is early on.

I nearly forgot HAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPYY BIRTHDAY Mermaid. Have a lovely day on Sunday

I'm off to Wales for the weekend. Talk to you all soon. lots of love xxx
