New thread girlies....running out of credit on the stupid hotel internet connection...so can't say anything..duh..

[higs]

Ei, sorry to hear about period arrival . The shorter length cycle is sounding better tho, do you think its anything to do with your healthy eating?

Sorry to keep you all hanging on, its a bit of a typical weird result... Took the test just a minute ago...Faint bfp () BUT as soon as I did the test I got stomach cramps and more dark brown/dark dark red blood.

So, think its all over before it even began.

Hang on in there PnM. It could be over but it might not be.
Hope everyone is ok - I've just stopped work and not a moment too soon - I barely fit into my maternity clothes any more!!

PnM dont worry too much it might be implantation nd your little bean is burrowing on for the long haul get to your doc and pronto
hi all
xx ei xx

Thanks for the reasurance guys, I'm not allowing any thoughts of hope just yet though as it feels just like it did when I miscarried last time.

I'm debating whether to ring the fertility clinic tomorrow to see if they will do a blood test - I'm on clomid and they said to ring if I had any questions!

Pleased to hear you're finally finished at work MrsH, hope DD enjoys having you at home. Am excited about being a cyber auntie again - although feel for you as can only imagine how concerned you are about the birth after last time. Sounds like you'll have lot more control over things this time though?

I hope so! But of course if my BP goes up or something else starts to go wrong all bets are off and any control I have managed to gain will fly straight out of the window. Oh well...

I agree it's best to assume the worst, hanging about on this thread I have come to realise how common it is for pregnancies not to take, but sometimes they do - and I am hoping this is one of those. Good idea to call your clinic though. A test costs them bugger all and might help you work out what's what.

PnM Keeping my fingers crossed that it is just implantation bleeding but can totally understand why you are being cautious x

MrsHappy Glad your maternity leave has kicked in now (cant believe how fast it has gone!) Lets hope your bp stays good and you get the birth you want

EI sorry about af but good news about your cycles x

Hi to everyone else x

Well I have just finished packing up for a weekend away to the inlaws for fil suprise 60th party and I am feeling quite nervous about how it will go! It will take about 6 hours to get there and as it is a suprise we are staying in a travelodge friday night after the party which with a very lively 3 yo and 8 week old twins could be interesting to say the least lol

Hope you all have a nice weekend and will "see" you all on monday x

Hang on in there PnM. Contacting the clinic sounds like a good idea. Thinking of you. XX

Thanks Shrek. How you doing? Heard its been a wet winter for you guys this year, bet you're glad its nearly spring?

Still bleeding and cramping this morning. Still faint bfp.

Have a question - if I contact my fertility clinic, do you reckon they'll take me off the waiting list because I've achieved pregnancy? I don't know what to do, whether I should ring them or not. I don't want to jeopardize (sp?) my ivf chances (altho, right now, ivf is the last thing I want to be doing).

Maybe I could ring the head nurse - she was really nice.

God, I hate this. Wish I hadn't done the test - sometimes its best not to know!

Sorry, me me me....

Hope your journey goes smoothly R4N2+3.

Eeeek PnM I can see your difficulty. Well, what about going to your GP instead for a blood test? They probably wouldn't share the information with the fertility clinic. As you say you don't want to drop off the list although I can see that isn't your primary concern at the minute. Although, on the other hand, perhaps this is due to the clomid and if, that is an if, this pregnancy doesn't stick then they'd up your dose. Right I've thought it through and think you SHOULD contact the clinic.

If the blood is dark then I wouldn't assume it is all over. Dark or brown is old blood. Cramping is normal in early pregnancy. Do your boobs still hurt? I remember mine being agony!!

I'll check in later and see how you are doing.

Right onto everyone else!

MrsH OOoh how exciting. I bet you are so happy your work has finished. Your DD must be very excited at the idea of a baby sister.

ei Boo to AF. Good news on the better cycle though. Have you been doing something to regulate your cycle?

bucky Hello! Could you not get one more dog?! . Sorry I shouldn't encourage you! When does your treatment begin?

Enjoy your trip R2n1.

Sorry but duty calls. Work was OK and DD loved nursery. She was happy, ate, slept, played. I was in tears of course! Right, I'll be back later, hang on in there PnM.

Just a quick post (busy busy at work) to say hang on in there to PnM - a positive is a positive, so good news, and others are right that dark is not always bad (in fact there are women on my antenatal thread who bled, quite heavily and often bright red blood, for literally weeks of their pregnancies). I also think you should contact someone - is there an early pregnancy unit at your nearest hospital? Might be a faster, and less "personal" way to get some immediate help/reassurance, without risking your fertility clinic finding out...anyway, am thinking of you and will be back later to see how you are (and catch up properly on everyone else's news).

Very very best wishes, PnM - still what seems like mixed signals - doesn't seem like it's all over yet, as others have said, but horribly stressful and a real rollercoaster for you. Thinking of you.

Hope you're enjoying the leave, MrsHappy - calm before the (lovely) storm!

Glad DD is enjoying nursery and you can go to work with a clear conscience (if not a few pangs!), JB. Hope you start to enjoy it, or at least settle in, quickly!

Sorry about the AF, Ei - sounds like things otherwise are good though and moving in the right direction in TTC terms.

Waves to everyone else.

After all that agonizing about DH, am going to have to postpone my fertility appointment - it clashes with my first day of teaching on my new university course, and I think that that's just too crucial to miss - registration, being put into study groups, first teaching on several courses, introduction to lots of technology, etc.. Sigh. The worst day of the year for them to have given me. Feels like it's never going to happen. And I should probably be prioritizing TTC over all else, but there is just so much to miss on Monday at the university. And I figure I can get another appointment. But I know it's one more thing to slow us up. What do people think - am I being stupid?

Anyway, very minor compared to lots of other things on here. Best to all.

Spoke to the fertility clinic - the head nurse (who is lovely) and she said there wasn't alot they could do but to rePOAS on Monday and if still positive, contact GP for a referral to EPAU. She tried to be so optimistic for me but, given the (sorry, TMI alert) amount of red blood I just lost, I can quite safely assume its all over . I just hope it doesn't drag on for 3 months like last time (blood tests 3 times a week for 3 months was no fun).

Anyway, thanks for the support. Am now sat working with hot water bottle clamped to stomach, old lady blanket wrapped around my shoulders eating choc mini rolls.

Love to all, sorry for being all about me....

Wish I could pop down there and hold your hand, PicknMix. I hope you're as ok as possible.

PnM feel bad about threatening to push you off the bench now . See how the testing goes. I had a CP or MC depending how you look at it last November remember....and here I am with my IVF so I don't think it makes a difference although like everything else, it depends on your PCT and who you get I suppose.

If the + goes away, then I wouldn't mention it, if it doesn't then its good news .

ei sorry your out again this month poppet.

MrsH saw your pics on FB, you look ravishing Mrs. So pretty.

RFN2&3...6 hours????. Do you get a prize if you pull that off?

love and kisses to everyone else. Start shooting up on the 18th, so I'll keep you posted.

Oh PnM I wish I could give you a real life hug. Take care of yourself

Another quick post from me (still at work ).

PnM Really hope it's still good news when you rePOAS but it's such a horrible thing to be going through - big (((hugs))) to you

Waves to everyone else. Won't have much time for MN this weekend as am off to Ikea tonight (more ) and then have a big family party tomorrow night (immediate family flying over, sans kids, for my sister's 40th tomorrow). Busy busy but will catch up properly soon.

hi ladies
PnM sorry things are still not right! FWIW with my CPs the BFP went away pretty soon after i started to bleed so maybe just see if it gets any darker and get down to EPU if it does fingers crossed (and legs too) for you xx {{{{{{higs}}}}}
hi to everyone else
AF is normal for once!! i am genuinely ed as it hasnt been for months
anywho...TMI time over
xx ei xx

Evening all,

Bleeding horribly now so def all over, will still do the test on Monday just to make sure but this has all really messed with my head. Keep crying, shouting, poor dh doesn't know what to do with me. Am at a wedding reception wishing I was somewhere else.

I'm such a whinger, I'm sorry!

Oh sweetheart, I am so sorry . Hugs to you, and don't stay too long at the reception if you can't stand it.

Very sorry, PnM - thinking of you. The last thing you are is a whinger. We're all with you. xxx

So sorry to hear this. You are definitely not a whinger. Take care. XX

Ah, thanks for all the support people, it means a lot to know you're there.

Just to continue the saga, took a test last night - after a huge cup of tea and weeing just 30 mins previous (i.e. v weak wee) in the hope it would show neg and whole thing could be ignored. No such luck, still positive. So took another one this morning, def still positive.

Have rung the drs and am waiting for them to ring back as they had no face to face appts today.

How was everyone elses weekend?? Hope the party went well Caitni? And seriously, a trip to Ikea at the weekend?? Are you crazy? I partook in a major bit of retail therapy - new coveted boots bought under the guise of 'I'm allowed to cos I'm sad'!

Hope you all are ok - can't believe that winter appears to be here already, I'm really not a fan of getting up in the dark!

How confusing, Pickmix.
I reckon you need a scan and some serial blood tests to check whether pg is growing and that it is in the right place.
Let us know how you get on when you speak to the GP.
