emmsy's onwards and upwards part 2, more good new please!

[barbie1]

Right here we go again!

So far we have been lucky on this thread so lets stick together for all you oldies! until we all get our precious babies.

Here's to the next chapter in our special journey, onwards and upwards

Good idea not to take the tests with you as they will still work when you come back. Have my fingers crossed for you. It's sounding promising. Have a nice trip and try to forget all about it (but maybe limit your wine intake? )

Thanks everyone for looking after me - I'm sure I felt the good vibes through the ether and thanks so much Daisy and Laura for popping in when you have so much to think of yourselves at the moment. I've still been looking in on May and June threads and getting excited for everyone I started that journey with. That spilled over into tears last night when reading about the first "May" births last night - delighted for people but sad about what might have been ..

The hormonal crash is kicking in - hopefully won't last too long and I am prepared for it this time. Off to the gym in a minute cos I have been awake since 4.30 and am climbing the walls and I'm hoping it might help lift my mood and shake things loose so I can finish bleeding before I go away.

I am hoping an egg may appear whilst we are away, so I can crack another and check if that one is still in date

Neeko That poem is fab It brought tears to my eyes because it just sums everything up. Your Gran sounds like she was an inspirational lady. Are you going to do anything special today?

Gracie Looks like you and I are in sync. Am on day 22 today as well. Have a great holiday, it'll be good to keep busy to take your mind off possible symptoms...

Jools I woke up this morning thinking about you and just how unfair life can be. I hope you're doing okay this morning, well as okay as you can be given what's happened. Lots of love to you x

Back later

Jools It sounds like a plan. You're a brave lady. Thinking of you.

Thanks Monkey she was the best and I miss her madly. We're having a family meal tomorrow. She'd approve of that as she loved her grub! Good luck to you for testing next week.

Gracie Stop lurking and pack!

Me??? lurking????

Neeko loved the poem, your gran sounds like she was a wise old sage. So you had a bfn as well..... we did test very early though doncha think?

GG your non-symptoms sound very exciting. You must find an internet cafe to keep us up-to-date! At least you wont be able to do any tests, unless you go to the local Boots & buy an hideously expensive one, that is!

Jools thinking of you still. Where are you going to next week btw?

Well I'm on day 25 now so only a few more days to wait. Not going to test until Tuesday but then of course af will have probably arrived.

Haven't you left yet? Funny how we keep meeting on the other thread but only "talk" on this one. Feel I have to be supportive at all times on that one but can be silly here.

Morning MLS It's 2 weeks today since my +ive on opk so really think I'm not. I was reading up on conception immediately after MC last night and basically said until AF arrives your body will play lots of tricks on you so not to trust +ives or mucus or anything. I'll test again next wk if AF still hasn't arrived but after that I think I might call the docs to see if they have any advice.
How was the spa day?

we dont have internet cafes here me ansome

Hello- I am tentatively popping my head around the door of this thread, as I hope to join you all soon I had a MC yesterday after being diagnosed with a slow MMC on Wednesday.

When will it be safe to TTC again? We'd rather not wait for my next AF if possible. Should we wait until a HPK shows up -ive? How long after MC does this take?

Sorry to come in with so many questions but I assume you ladies are the experts!

Hi cupoftea sorry for your very recent loss
I would let your body and head recover tbh. You want to be in tip top condition to keep a little sticky bean, so rest relax drink wine or tea and let an af come and go.

Hi everyone, well i didnt get sick, think i am in the clear for that....however i am so paranoid, i just cant believe there is a baby in there, doing it 'correctly', even though last time was so obviously just a bad egg, not a baby iyswim. What can i do, how can i relaxx?

My breasts arent very sore but i am so tired, and slightly nauseous, though i am one ofthose annoying women who just sails through pg anyway and get few things wrong in the beginning. I wish i had more to go on; but i don't; all my childrens pgs were like this one too - no 'real' things to go on!

I'm so sorry to keep going on about it; just DH doesnt really know what to say or do, and goodness knows when my scan is. Feelsl ike i am waiting for something to go wrong

Hi cupoftea - when i had my mc in Feb i jus tttc again straight away - i have had one period since my mc, which i kind of think let my body heal up and get back into the swing of things

Morning lovely ladies.

Jools ive been thinking about you all last night and infact this morning and hope you are as well as can be expected. Have a lovely holiday with DP.

Neeko-What a lovely poem. It made me well up reading it, your Gran sounds like she was a lovely wise woman.

Cupoftea-Sorry about your loss, life is so cruel sometimes. As regards to TTC i would do as mermaid says, when you feel physically and more importantly, emotionally ready. I had a mmc at 12 weeks and it took bout 14 or so days till i got a negative hpt. I waited until id had AF to make sure everything was 'working' properly before we TTC.

Scorpio-You have got to try and think positively, negative thoughts are going to stress you. You will have your scan before you know it.

Gracie-Have lovely holiday, hopefully the weather will be fab for you. Symptoms sound promising mind!.

Love to everyone else. Its a beautiful Summers day here, sunny and warm, going out for the day shortly.

annie by the time Gracie leaves Cornwall she will have a tail like me, it is raining really hard and has been like ths since yesterday evening.

scorpio It's the day at a time mantra for you honey. Every five minute feels like an hour and every little twinge rings alarm bells, its shit. annies right try not to be negative you don't need the stress.xx

jools you blinking gym bunny get your bum on a chair for the afternoon before you have to run aroud packing tomorrow. Thank god you are going away for a bit of a holiday. Just go gently on yourself cos we all love youxx

Gym was good It did accelerate the blood loss though, so I got a bit dizzy at one point - came home and munched my way through most of a tub of Ben and Jerry's phish food - my fave ice cream (having a sod the diet day). That seems to have sorted things nicely

Scorpio - you will be fine. Please don't let my experience scare you. By the law of averages, this thread is due more good news now ...

I got home to a letter from the GP I saw to announce the pregancy on Tuesday, apologising because my request for a reassurance scan had been turned down because they now do 12 week scans, but to get in touch if I have any bleeding and she'd get me into the EPU I wish their computer systems were joined up ! I'll be getting my booking in appt from the midwife next

Packing and cleaning today, off to see friends tomorrow and fly out on Monday, so keeping busy - and the sun has come out here

jools more ice-cream less hareing aroundsuch a well timed holiday hope you and dh have a relaxed and healing time. bloody computer systems.xx

Jools the ice cream sound yummy and you sound very strong. Think the holiday will be just what you need. Any chance someone ould check your post while you are away and intercept the scan letter? Have a relaxing and healing time.
Cupoftea Been speaking to you on the other thread. It's good that you are looking at migrating over here.I still haven't had AF since MC (almost 6 weeks) and we've been TTC using opks and all that but would advise against it TBH. I've had a +ive opk twice and a million pg symptoms but I am not pg! I'd advise you to just enjoy close time with your DH until you get AF and then go hell for leather That's what I'm going to do now. Actively trying to conceive before AF is unpredictable because your body is so up and down and TBH F*** with your head. Good luck!

Scorpio Relax as much as possible and try not to think about it until you can have a scan. My EPU told me to call them when I reached 7 wks and they'd have me in for an early scan. It's worth calling yours to see where you are in the postcode lottery. Take care.

Barbie Know you're bust with your friend but the thread is not the same without you. we need some nonsense to cheer us up.

Hope all the other girls with sticky beans are taking it easy. Thinking of you all.

bust meant busy That really wasn't the kind of nonsense I was after!

hi everyone

welcome laura and cupoftea neeko my af came 7 weeks since mc and 40 days since ERPC

jools i hope you have a nice and relaxing holiday . thinking of you xxx

gracie have a great time in cornwall i will phone you and keep you updated lol

Thanks Kate I hope mine comes soon. Hope it's not too personal a question but how has you AF been - heavier or lighter than usual?

heavier than ive had since coming off pill aswell must be my proper af since i was 16 lol. (very very bight red sorry if tmi)

No I need TMI. thanks for being so honest. Really pleased you got yours before the wedding. You should be one chilled out brode now.

yeah me too i was slighty stressing when i wouldnt come and got bfn . im telling you it was gracie she told me that it would come and it did lol. i like im a teenager agin too spotty with the hormones lol

Spots will be gone for wedding. Need Gracie to come back from Cornwall to predict when my AF will come. Funny how you think about it all the time isn;t it? Feel like MC has turned me into an obsessed freak!
