Emmsy's onwards and upwards part five.....white coats and pee sticks at the ready for more BFP's

[VJaybigpants]

Here we go a shiny new thread.....

just a quick post to wish barbie and mollie good luck for tomorrow.

hoping if any other bigpanters havent already asked, I would love to have the baby booties and hat, thanks....

Hope everyone else is ok and not suffering too much in the heat...

Just popping in to offer my hands to hold for Mollie and Barbie for their scans tomorrow.

Moon well done for holding it together whilst looking at scan pictures. You have a rant, that's what we're here for.

MLS in my case I had an ERPC to remove the womb lining and empty sac, as 4 weeks after the baby had died I'd still not bled at all. Otherwise I think it would break down and you would pass it eventually. Well done for forward thinking to be ordering stuff from Babymad.

hi annie hope you feel ok in this lovely hot weather

mollie lovely and mellow (I know you are trying to be) will be soooooo thinking of you tomorrow.xxxx

barbie ditto for you young lady everything crossed and safe and fair winds bring you home for lots of cuddles with your mum and family.xxx

jools loving your mellow sounding evening, nice to hear you sounding much happier and positive.

hoping you made me cry which doesn't happen often enough iykwim, bloody words eh? it helps to be here.xx

moon euch euch and euch to your day and your friend and life in general at the minute. It is so early days honey, we will all somehow get there in the end.xxxx

will be out tomorrow cos seeing a man about some golf - forgot all about it till just now and been running round trying to find letter, clean nic nacs etc etc

mls hope you manage some sleep at some point. You must be drained and exhausted.xx

hi mermaid and gg hope you're ok....

Hi everyone....im totally trying to wastes as much time as possiblw before 2pm.

jools has my number so will kindly update any news i have. Should with any luck be back on later as we dont fly until 2am tomorrow morning. I hope im back with good news. mollie thinking about you too....

mls brave lady, the fact that you are posting and talking about opk sticks is a sigh of what a strong person you are. I wish you all the best over the next few heartbreaking days, i hope your family somehow help you through the worse of the darkness and towards the sun that you will some day see at the end of a lonely but all to familar dark tunnel...

sabs hello lovely, havent spoken for so long...i miss our fb chats, when im back ill catch up x

mermaid so cant wait to be home planning a trip to cornwall for the pasty that im craving...with any luck the weather will hold out and i can take a stroll around padstow with the gaggle of tourist that seem to flock there every july....ah happy days!

hoping what a lovely gesture with the booties...it made me cry for some reason one day honey you will have a whole 9 months to knit as much as you want for you own little one...but it will be sods law that you give birth in the summer in a middle of a heat wave!

moon we have all had the insensitive comments after mc...the worse one i had was from my boss who asked if "my little problem had been sorted out yet" meaning is the mc so it wont affect your work anymore. For the first few weeks i was polite but buy this time i just said what was on my mind she didnt stay my boss for very much longer! Some times its best to be honest with people because sometimes they really do struggle to know the pain we go through...others are just insensitve ass wipes who you shouldnt hold back from

ditto about pregnant ladies avioding us because they think we are bad luck or they can catch having a mc from us like wtf??? Sadly mc is still such a tatboo subject for many which means some people are poorly educated on the matter. This is way our thread is sooooo special....we understand and we can say what we want!!!

Hello to the rest of you, i have to pack, clean the fridge and find a nail file for my festival kit on the advice of mermaid

Imight not be around so much over the next few weeks but im lurking and thining about you all....

Take care and keep out of trouble!! big hugs xxx

Something just made me smile. Was googling two miscarriages & found a mn link to a thread of Oct last year. Was reading through it & found that the person who started the thread & was asking the question 'will I be able to conceive again after two miscarriages in four months' was our lovely Vjay!

Barbie good luck for today. If your scan is at 2pm, what time is it over there now?

Btw, Vjay have you been taking aspirin in this pregnancy?

hey girls. Just wanted to offer my hand to barbie and mollie today. I'll be lurking for news xxx

Thinking of you too mls and hoping you are ok

Sorry I haven't posted much. Still really struggling with ms keep practically no food down, i've just no energy and don't want to be on here constantly complaining about such a normal part of pregnancy when I know how bloody lucky I am to get this far. Still lurking and thinking of u all tho back later for proper post xxx

both my golf player and drs all said if you have had one dc then you will not have sticky blood/ asprin need. but I have read so much conflicting advice. I reckon it can't hurt and if it acts as a bit of a placebo then fab try it.
mls you are at the can't sleep google stage thinking of you.

sabs always miss you, hope all is well.xxx

curlygreenface oh you poor lady - you have to complain lots, we like hearing you complain its our silver lining in all this sadness that you have really bad ms and are totally up the duff However seroiusly it must be dreadful in ths weather lots of green leafy stuff if you can stand it and go really easy on yourself. exams and all your haring around no wonder you are cream crackered.xxx

barbie plastic bags essential items and a bin liner. You will be needing a fork lift truck.
good luck barbie and Mollie

ok girls im off, its 10.21 and an half an hour drive...meeting dh for lunch and to drink lots of fluids...only 3 hours left...jools will post for me xxxx

Sorry no time to catch up but just wanted to say Barbie I'm thinking of you, will be keeping an eye out for updates

Big hello to everyone else

Ooh barbie thinking of you!

sabsbigpants you got there first, the baby knits are all yours! At least 4 little babbies have worn booties and hats made from this pattern, so properly field tested as baby proof I'll pop them in the post for you, if we can figure out a way to share addresses without posted them on here

mermaid oh I didn't mean to make you cry!

AF turned up good and proper this morning, guess after the MC my cycle is still all over the place. Grr. Still as DH keeps reminding me, we're not actively trying right now. He thought we should take a break, I got panicky about wasting time (see early posts!) so seeing what happy accidents await was the compromise. Didn't stop me sulking last night when AF unpacked her suitcase and put the kettle on

MLS - I'm taking low dose asprin on advice of gynae consultant who did my ERPC and follow up meeting to discuss my 2 mcs. As Mermaid says don't think you can have sticky blood if you've had a DC but it causes no side effects on baby and does make you feel you're doing something positive! I started taking mine one month before we started ttc again and still take one a day. HTH, stay strong and I was exactly the same, ttc is the only way to get over the heartbreak - you go girl.

Just a quick hello as really need to get some housework done before it gets too warm good luck for today to barbie and Mollie will lurk later for news also just to say am thinking of you mls hoping it will all be over soon for you good sign buying the opks love to you all x

Hoping If you email me on [email protected] I can pass your contact details onto Sabs who is a friend of mine on Facebook. I set up that email for this very purpose, its how we got each others mobile numbers.

Morning all.
First of all sincere apologies for laughing in your time of need MLS but I had a giggle at you sounding like an old soak and justifying your vodka drinking after midday! If you feel the need before that, just pretend you're in Dubai visiting Barbie! Seriously, you are being so strong and doing so well. Insist on the ERPC and prepare yourself to rip open that brown envelope. We'll be here every step of the way.

Barbie and Mollie looking forward to hearing your good news.

Moon at you feeling so hurt. I think you should just be honest. In my experience the people who genuinely care will still ask and the others can get lost!

Hoping What a lovely gesture. Love, love, love the idea of an Emmsy's baby hat. Think it's a great symbol of the hope and love that's in this thread. I know I feel lucky to have met such a special bunch of ladies. Really sorry AF got you. I did the secret hoping for a lucky bean after my MC too. Another dream, however secret and unlikely, not realised is heartbreaking Remember Curly's idea: yesterday could be the 1st day of your pregnancy.

Speaking of Curly Sorry you're still suffering but do come on and tell us. All healthy pregnancy news gives us hope

I hope all you ladies in slightly stretchy - very stretchy - can't-possibly-stretch-much-more pants are coping with the heat.

Cupcake How's the symptom spotting going?

Gracie How's the pain? have you told may people in RL yet?

Jools loving that you have wholeheartedly embraced the rose idea. Hoping that's the key to BD success this month.

Mermaid enjoy all things golf. rather you than me!

4ever hello lovely. How are you coping this week? Are you going for the opks this month?

Iggy if you're lurking. Hope you're having a great holiday and the BDing's going to plan.

Blue Glad to hear you're keeping so busy. Do you have a nice wee bump now? Where are you based again? something tells me you're not too far from me in Prestwick.

Kate Hope you're still loved up!

I'm now on day 16 and sticking to the every other day thing. Trying not to think about the fact that I could have another 7 week cycle. I've had no spotting this time so hope that's a positive. It's rubbish when you can't trust your body.

Sorry for those I've missed. I'm having holiday amnesia!

Blue that is very interesting. So you had 2 mc & now you are pregnant & progressing nicely & are taking aspirin. It might have nothing to do with it but anything is worth a shot.

Can't hurt MLS

So that'll be 2 brazil nuts, 1 aspirin, 1 vitamin b6 & 1 Pregnacare..... any advances???

You forgot the grapefruit juice!!!!!!

Stock up on caffeine free tea bags - I've read a few comments where people have been told by recurrent MC consultants to cut out caffeine altogether.

Lots and lots of water aswell to increase all that lovely EWCM

MLS Just a quickie as lurking at work for news of Barbie I'm doing the same as Blue following 3m/c's started baby aspirin with this pg and am now 16 wks and counting, could be coincidence but I'm converted
