Morning ladies
Congratulations Jools! Sit down, do nothing and rest!(For a day or two)
Barbie at the cost of maternity care over there!
Hi to everyone else. Loving the baby talk!

GracieGirl · 13/04/2009 12:05

Jools that's brilliant news!! We all understand how scared you are, and we're all here to hold your hand. The conception indicators aren't that accurate anyway, it depends how strong your urine was. What's important is that you have a BFP.

Yeah its sunny!!!!! and I'm not at work!!!!!

bluesatinsash · 13/04/2009 12:09

Afternoon All and CONGRATULATIONS to you Jools . I know you are terrified but there's nothng you can do, its out of your hands and you've managed the most important thing - getting that ellusive BFP! I'm sending you all the strong and sticky thoughts I can muster...

Mollie - I'm with you on waiting 'til 8 weeks if you can, I thankfully ? didn't ever see a heartbeat with my lost 2 as they were 'gone' by the time of my 8 week scan but the size of them signalled there probably was a heartbeat at one point .

Anyway not dwelling on that today!! .

barbie - phew! re: having BUPA!

Hey Neekoo and Vjay - glad you're feeling brigher today .

DH, DS and me are off out for a lovely drive today so have a nice one everyone!

Back from the gym (5k run on the cross-trainer and then a Body Combat class - maybe too much, I don't know. I slowed down last time and it still went wrong, so haven't decided what to do yet ...) Sun is trying to come out here

Re scans - I think I'm going to ask for one at around the 7.5 or 8 week mark - reading through my notes from last time, there is a strong likelihood that my bean died at 7 weeks, as I had ten mins of very strong cramps and some brown spotting then. We go on holiday two weeks today and will be exactly 7 weeks when we return, so hopefully that will take my mind off things.

I never "met" my bean last time - had no early scans and the MC happened 2 hours before my dating scan

So, milestones:

1 - pass the suspected MC time - May 3rd
2 - 8 week scan, seeing heartbeat - May 16th
3 - EDD of lost LO - May 29th

Looks like I'll be due Dec 19th, but am not letting myself think farther ahead than May right now

Head still spinning, so I'll go and catch up with everyone elses news now and apologies for being a bit self-centred today .Barbie - am sure you are next Vjay - glad you are feeling better today. I've just realised - I can't diet any more so I'm going to HAVE to eat the chocolate that is calling me from the fridge Xmas Grin

hi and welcome katy, can i just ask how do you know if you are having troubles ovulating because at 16 your cycles could still be adjusting....have you had any test yet?

kay you are very switched on for a 16 year old...most doctors wont do much for you at 16 because they believe you are still developing (not trying to sound patronising by the way) they also say to wait a year into ttc without a positive pregnancy test before they will investigate. My guess is he will send you away for a few months.....

Kay4MattTTC · 13/04/2009 15:41

hey Scorpio i know i seem young but me and DP really want a baby. and i feel really ready for it so.

Neeko · 13/04/2009 15:42

Scorpio iffy days are sooo allowed on here!

ScorpiowithabigS · 13/04/2009 15:42

I got pregnant at 16, i know the other side. That's all.

ScorpiowithabigS · 13/04/2009 15:43

thankyou I am doing good though really quite positive YAY!

Kay4MattTTC · 13/04/2009 15:43

well i hve been TTC for 10 month. and i went to see the docter a few month ago and she said to keep charting and if it reamins the same then go back and see her.

Neeko · 13/04/2009 15:44

Kay If it's what you want, it's what you want. No one is judging you on here, but what Barbie said bout the doctor is right. Just be prepared for that.

Kay4MattTTC · 13/04/2009 15:51

hey Neeko thankQ. and i know they arn't i am already prepared for that.
