Congratulations Eleanora

Ozziegirly · 28/12/2009 23:07

WOW, congratulations to NovemberAli and Eleanora, that is such wonderful news, I am so thrilled for you. And extra great for it to happen at Christmas.

Turkeydrumstix I"m sorry to hear that AF arrived after being 5 days late - that is so annoying. I had one cycle like that and was convinced I was pregnant as well.

Claire sorry to hear about your negative, but maybe it was just too early, Am keeping fingers crossed.

I am 6 weeks pregnant today - still feeling fine really. Bit tired and tender boobs but no sickness yet!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas xx

Calyx · 29/12/2009 07:27

Urghhh back to work this morning! Just peeping in and wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS Eleanora, yayyy that's brilliant news!

Worrisome Welcome to the thread, excellent to see you best of luck!

Hiya Ozzy 6 weeks 'gone' already eh!

Better go and de ice the car, oh it's too cold and early to be out!

kkas · 29/12/2009 09:51

morning ladies - what a gloomy day to be back to work. luckily i have a long lunch and a hair appointment planned today, so hopefully it won't be too grueling

zippys · 29/12/2009 09:54

Morning everyone,

Congratulations Elenora that is such good news. I bet it was such good news after spotting. What a lovely late Christmas present

addie I would say that 10 dpo would be a bout right but as usual I would say it is sometimes better to wait until you are actually late as a bfn so early may not actually be a bfn.

Hello and welcome to worrisome sorry to hear you think that af is on its way, hopefully it is not.

kkas sorry to hear about af, is it just spotting still as there coould still be hope. I spent the millenium with my ex just the two of us which was lovely, this year we are having family round.

Bunnygirl I hope the weather got better.

Mrschino it may not be a long cycle but a bfp. keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Ozzie lovely to hear from you, hope you are doing well and not too much sickness or tiredness.

Calyx hope it wasnt too cold and work is quiet for you today.

Any news from Claire?

I am now 3 days late and no spotting at all which is very unusual as when I have had a long cycle before I have had spotting. I have other symptoms such as the sickness which has really bad this morning. Had a nosebleed and had a rash on my legs (can be extra oestogen) BUT did cheapy test this morning and BFN

The test was a cheap (3 for £1.44) one, a dip one. Part of me says go get a cb or fr and test again and the other part of me, just says accept it and get on.

I am still waiting for my blood test which I may get at 2pm this afternoon but I just feel like my head is in so much of spin right now. I had convinced myself that I was pregnant and now so so upset

Anyway enough of me me me, uodated list

sorry kkas cross post, hope you enjoy some pamper time

Muser · 29/12/2009 10:10

It's not over yet zippys, don't give up hope until AF arrives.

addie81 · 29/12/2009 13:12

Dont give up hope Zippys, surely absence of AF means there is still a good chance of an August/September arrival.

zippys · 29/12/2009 13:34

Thank you for the support but just tested with cb digital and fr and both bfn!! Af still not here but pretty sure she will rear her head soon. Got a letter from doctors to ring after 2pm re my results from blood tests but pretty sure they will just be negative too!

Muser · 29/12/2009 14:14

Any news from the docs zippy?

NovemberAli · 29/12/2009 14:15

Congratulations Eleanora, am crossing my fingers for more to join us with September babies

Hope you get some good news from the doctors Zippys

sevans · 29/12/2009 16:44

Oh zippys, any news? Here is hoping for another BFP!

Got my blood results from yesterday...Hcg levels dropped significantly from 2200 to 920. This is great news. Doctor wants me to test again next Monday. I hope I get another good drop. Also did blood work for CBC (complete blood count). They wanted to test for an infection since I had a fever over the weekend. No infection (probably thanks to the antibiotics I have been taking) but they did discover that I am now anemic. Probably due to the blood loss these past four and a half weeks. I am going to get some iron pills today which will hopefully help with the weakness, fatigue, occasional dizziness and other symptoms I have been feeling. I recently discovered that I have lost about 7 pounds. I knew I wasn't able to eat as much because of my illness but I hadn't noticed a change in the way my clothes fit. I guess I have only been wearing tights with long sweaters and loose jeans this whole time because I haven't felt well so maybe that is why I hadn't noticed. I need to try on my tighter jeans to check the fit! I have been wanting to lose about five pounds so I guess this is the only thing good that came out of this damn miscarriage.

zippys · 29/12/2009 17:04

Hi quick update. Bloods need redoing as problem with sample. Urine test bfn but was from before Xmas. Still no af. V v confused with my body.

zippys · 29/12/2009 17:06

Sorry sevans forgot to say hope you are feeling a little better now. You have really had it rough. As you say at least you have lost weight over Christmas instead of putting it on.

WorrisomeHeart · 29/12/2009 18:37

Oh Zippys, how frustrating to have to wait longer for the blood results! Any idea when that will be?

Sevans - glad things are getting better for you, hope it continues.

Well, AF due tomorrow and all the signs are pointing to her arriving.. So thats 7 months down with no BFP. I know it's not long in the grand scheme of things, but it's hard not to get disheartened. DH and I have decided to go and get some private tests done, just to rule out any issues. So am going to call a couple of clinics tomorrow to see about getting an appt. What do you all think? Are we being unnecessarily impatient? My feeling is that if we were pushing to get the tests done on the NHS I would feel selfish for taking the clinic's time when there may not be anything wrong, but as we'll be paying for it, I don't feel so bad ... crazy huh?

Hope everyone has had an ok day even if it's been spent at work!

mumnerves · 29/12/2009 21:06

Hello everyone, I've been lurking for 2 months and TTC for 2 cycles, so good to read other's experiences and paranoias too, makes me feel like I'm just being human!
It's like today when a lady at work announced she was pregnant to everyone and I just felt like a big bunch of sour grapes! Had to fake a smile all day when I was just really dissapointed inside

I'm not usually like that and I know we've only been ttc for 2 months but trying hard with tracking vd etc and going to start taking BBT next cycle too, Just wanted to say thanks everyone for sharing

Kaloki · 29/12/2009 21:17

Worrisome If it stops you worrying, then it's a good idea.

Mumnerves Welcome!!

claireinthecommunity · 29/12/2009 23:34

Hello all , this is going to be a me me me post as I am a bit pissed merry Our visitors have just left and I now have time to post.

CD1 for me , disappointed but the good thing about Christmas is that there are copious amounts of wine and chocolate to hand

Will log off now while I am still vaguely coherent

claireinthecommunity · 29/12/2009 23:37

I'll just add that DH's plan for next month is: lots of sex

Muser · 30/12/2009 00:10

Ha, good plan on DH's part.

bunnygirl80 · 30/12/2009 00:35

Claire sorry AF got you. Sounds like your DH has come up with the same action plan as mine!

Sevans I hope the iron pills help to start to feel better. I'm not surprised you're anaemic after 4 and a half weeks of bleeding.

Worrisome I agree that if having tests done puts your mind at rest then go for it

Welcome mumnerves

Got a big dip in temps today so that means I should ov today. Time to break in the new undies I got for Christmas I think

kkas · 30/12/2009 10:12

wow lots happening yesterday!

sevans hope you feel better soon hun.

claire sorry to hear about AF. sounds like you're having a nice time in spite of it!!! lots of sex is my plan for this month too, although still haven't told DH as do not want to put him off.... we'll see how it goes!

mumnerves welcome let us know your stats and i'll add you to the list.

bunny good luck tonight!

Wow! I go missing for a couple of days and we get another BFP! Congratulations Eleanora!

Welcome worrisome and mumnerves, lovely to have you aboard.

sevans sorry you?ve been having such a torrid time. It?s a crap way to do it, but losing weight does seem like a very small silver lining to the enormous cloud you?ve been experiencing recently.

zippys your body sounds pretty indecisive, but whilst there?s no AF there is still hope, so fingers crossed fora positive after all these negatives.

Sorry AF got you Claire and kkas, Claire ? your DH sounds to have the same plan as mine! . AF is due for me today and all signs are pointing to her imminent arrival. I?m in the odd position of wantingit to hurry up an arrive as my blood test is booked for tomorrow and if I?m not on my period then they can?t do it and I don?t want to miss my slot!
