Any of you watching This Morning, there's a woman on next that has had 18 mc's, then due to pioneering treatment has finally had a baby, see there's always a way

cupcakefairy · 24/02/2010 11:27

Hi girls
Ooh Vjay I read about that story in the bbc news, must be same woman... wasn't it a natural killer cells thing, reminded me of 4ever...here is the article.

MLS massive hand hold for today, saying a prayer for you. I found out this morning that St Catherine of Siena is the patron saint against miscarriage, and Siena is one of the names we're considering for our lo so will plead to her for you too.
Yes you're right we do need new recruits! Have tried inviting so many people but I think they're a bit intimidated by how long we've been going... it's a shame.

LBM your break sounds so lovely! Our antenatal stuff starts next Thurs, I'm a bit about it! Thanks for the tips.

Neeko big hugs for your anniversary. I keep thinking about my lost lo too; it's just gone by a year since I got my BFP so all very strange to think about this time last year. Dh took photos of me with the positive test and I have the biggest grin on my face...
Echo LBM on the second labours! A good friend of mine had a baby girl on Monday...her first labour was soooo long, and this one they almost sent her home at 4pm as she was only 3cms, then her waters broke and baby was born at 7pm
Looooved the puggled cuddles phrase and your dh looking forward to them, how lovely

4ever once again, huuuuge smiles over your scan. Your girl is making us all proud already! I lol'd at your crisp comment... yes I did get the massive bag of wotsits and ate them all in one sitting...so disgusting and yummy at the same time. What did you think of One Born Every Minute? I only dared to watch about 10 mins of it...saw the husband of vbac girl having a go at her, and then caught her birth at the end. Freaked me out as I knew it would but I guess I do need to be prepared!

Sabs hope you're feeling better my lovely.

Curly so lovely to see you pop in and another one melting here at Grace's squeaky noises!!

Moon have a

Jools we miss you.

I have been waking mega early and feeling sick again very strange, feels like early pregnancy all over!
We've seen more houses, we have more booked.. I'm trying not to get hopes up and probably boring you all to death with it now so I'll just let you know when we have somewhere to live !

I had a call from my bf last night to say she is pregnant it wasn't exactly planned (she is married and they had been thinking about it soon but not quite so soon!) so she is a bit overwhelmed! So excited she'll be just 6 months behind me though, God willing.

Ooh, bit of a mammoth post...big waves and hugs to all other lovely ladies

CurlyBigPants · 24/02/2010 11:28

Here's my hand for mls. Everything will be fine but will lurk till I hear

ooh moon I am getting excited!!! Ignore naughty mls tho. She's a very bad influence

lbm great advice from the antenatal class. So exciting for u doing antenatal classes. It's a big milestone I think

blue well done on getting thru bens jags. I cried when they took blood from curlygirl

big waves to Iggy and Annie and everyone lurking today xxx

vjay lol at your korma tears Im an emotional mess so making mental note not to watch eastenders!

Neeko we also fight over the snuggles. I love the term puggled cuddles As for pre pregnancy clothes I'm back in them but can't wear most of my jeans cos they rub onmy csection scar. Also I look fine with clothes on but won't be parading around naked any time soon!!

CurlyBigPants · 24/02/2010 11:31

Takes me ages to post on phone so missed lovely cupcake. Keep us posted on househunt honey. I'm hooked on proprerty shows so love all that stuff

VJay · 24/02/2010 11:32

cupcake yes that's her, it reminded me of 4ever too and all her treatment.

bakingqueen · 24/02/2010 11:38

Just a quick pop in before I go to work to say hope everything goes well today MLS will be lurking later to check on you to hear your good news x

littlebellsmum · 24/02/2010 12:20

Sneaky post at work - MLS Hope you are still holding it together... Btw, the class I went to was an NCT one and was refreshingly realistic - no hemp or home knitting mentioned at all , oh and no sandal wearing! Can't wait to hear your good news...

Lionstar · 24/02/2010 12:50

OMG I can't believe I missed babybarbie arriving, that'll teach me to let RL get in the way of MN!! Welcome to the world little Devon - what a yummy name . Hope barbie is taking it easy recovering from the scetion - enjoy putting your feet up and rooming in with your baby

4ever I'm at your news too, she's a little fighter your DD. Boo to bad wedding date timing though, don't want to wish you an early delivery either.

MLS, have another hand to hold today. I'm sure it will all be fine, but you have every right to weeble.

Moon, sending you lots of sticky thoughts too, well done for holding off testing.

Sorry, have to go DS is making waking up noises. Love to everyone else.

MummyLovesSadie · 24/02/2010 13:36

Right I'm off now. Thanks for all of your good wishes. See you in a bit.

bluesatinsash · 24/02/2010 13:37

sneaky post to say barbie has put photos of Devon up on FB and she is absolutely GORGEOUS!! Lots and LOTS of dark hair just like her Daddy

MLS - hope you're feeling all our vibes honey xxx

Back on later x

Is it wrong that i want to join FB just to see Barbie's pics?!?

My stomach is in knots for MLS This has to be her turn...

4everhopeful · 24/02/2010 14:06

Yea praying hard for MLS too... Cupcake we have a welsh Poor St Clare convent of nuns praying for us! A friend of my great aunt told them of our predicament and they sent us prayer card of St Colette who is also a patron of 'parents who persevere many years in prayer to have a child' the prayer card lives by our bed! As usual we went to the hospital chapel before (and after) the scan yesterday too...

I wanna see Barbies pics!

Also I sky plussed This Morning cos heard of that woman being on there, it the same one was my Great Aunt phoned & told DH about on hos birthday convinced it was the same treatment we had, its not though, we were tested for it privately before we discovered the Lymphocyte Immunotherapy treatment.. It horrofies me that some women end up going through that horrendous amount of MC before they find the cause, Im so damn grateful I discovered this treatment before having any more MC - it was both a press article MIL gave me that I filed away, and was then reminded of my a forum on our wonderful MN.. Im so tempted to bleat on about our miracle treatment, but not comfortable to do so until baby is here in our arms.. All being well, prayers above and god willing, Ill go on This Morning too and sing from the rooftops, as this treatment is ONLY done by The Portland and I was so lucky to discover it. Im sure lots of ladies are affected, we had all the NHS tests, and then the same private test for the treatment that the poor lady today had before discovering our cause and treatment.. Id love to let more people know about it, but will sit tight as said! Poor lady though, there really should be more info out there, she shouldnt have had to go through that... Makes me

ooops hometime was 6mins ago!

Neeko · 24/02/2010 14:23

4ever I'll definitely be sky plussing if you go on This Morning and forcing offering everyone I know to watch it

If MLS's EPU is on time she has 5 mins to go

Sabs1981 · 24/02/2010 14:37

Hello all. Just a quickie from me to wish mls all the best for the scan today. I realise her appointment is right now but I've been quite unwell with this stomach bug My whole family have gone down with it.

Had a quick peek at photo's of Devon on fb - sooo adorable!

I also watched that lady on This Morning today. I was thinking about our smallpanters and how miracles can happen.

Be back soon but will be lurking

littlebellsmum · 24/02/2010 15:54

I'm too impatient - do we have any news?

Neeko · 24/02/2010 15:56

just texted her cos I'm impatient too. Waiting on a reply.

VJay · 24/02/2010 15:59

Just popping in for mls news, hope she's ok.

neeko I want to join fb too just to see barbies pics , it's not fair it's discriminating against us nonfacebookers

Neeko · 24/02/2010 16:01

I agree Vjay Do you think we could take out disciplinary proceedings?

My stomach is in knots.

VJay · 24/02/2010 16:02

Yes neeko we should

My stomach is too, come on mls

Neeko · 24/02/2010 16:05

She texted me saying didn't you get the text I sent you 10 minutes ago? What does that mean????

VJay · 24/02/2010 16:07

neeko check your phone!!!!!

Neeko · 24/02/2010 16:09

I did.

She has just texted again. Apparently she's sent me the scan pic but I didn't get it.

THE BABY IS HEALTHY!!! MLS IS REALLY PREGNANT!!!!!!

VJay · 24/02/2010 16:11
