WestYorkshireGirl what lovely news. Nice to read after so much sadness this week.

I'm back at work today - had a little cry at home before setting off, but feeling a little brighter.

Got my follow-up scan on Tuesday and my pre-conception acupuncture starts on wednesday.

Here's to BFBs all round

Julia1969 · 20/05/2010 11:11

Wow, another BFP! Congrats WYG! Ironically it seems that along with the sad stories, this might be a lucky thread!

I'm loving the attitude on here, it's refreshingly grown-up in a marvellously un-grown-up way ! Sorry I don't write much.

I'm so over-whelmingly tired today that I'm either coming down with a cold or something or .....
Obviously my head is wrangling with 'You're pregnant!', 'You're sick!'!
Emotional response, logical response. Emotional response ....etc

Am only 5 DPO - derrr. Someone slap me!

Freezingmyarseoff · 20/05/2010 11:50

WYG
Hurrah, I'm so happy for you.

Redheadgal · 20/05/2010 12:43

Dancing a little jig for WYG - great news!

Hairy - glad things are happening for you. Fx no more blood tests are coming your way for a while.

Big hug to Magic. Hang in there. Thinking of you this weekend.

Waves to Everyone else. Still lurking cos I want to see how you guys get on

sakura28 · 20/05/2010 14:00

Ooh congrats WYG, how exciting! Hope everything goes boringly smoothly for you

Hi to everyone else, hairy glad that af has arrived - quite a strange thing to say really! Am just waiting for mine to arrive then I can get back to "normal" too.

Am still waiting for my blood test results in the post. Apparently the hospital posted them last monday... hmmmm

sakura28 · 20/05/2010 14:03

Oh and hi to Bunder, sorry about your GP being clueless, not very comforting is it.

Hope the wedding is ok xx

urd · 20/05/2010 14:14

Fantastic news WYG, THATS JUST BRILLIANT.

Glasgow85 · 20/05/2010 14:38

Hi guys

thanx for the welcome .

MAGIC thanks for that link on the tests they do.
I just got the basic blood tests round at the GP surgery need to wait on my appt for hospital for the other tests. i'm such an impatient person i hope it's not to long a wait as were are going to stop ttc until we get some sort of answers .

anyway today ive managed not too cry tuesday was the worst , ive now got another obsession that keeps playing on my mind that there is something wrong with me and i wont be able to have kids . I can't help it i was just so sure that i wouldn't mc again .

go back to work on monday maybe it will do
me good stop me thinking about babies and calling myself a complete failure , my two best friends are due their babies in a few
weeks , my due date for my first mc is also
coming up it would have been the 12th july .

need to focus on another project for a while i think , i honestly think you can drive yourself mad with this ttc and m/c buisness .

anyway you'z are all a good bunch and im sure i'll stick round here for a while and congrats to the latest bfp .

randomimposter · 20/05/2010 14:53

Sorry haven't been around much - MIL to stay and don't like her to think I spend too much time on MN ignoring her PFBGS...

welcome newbies
sorry to all those having a tough week (Viv you are v brave). Phew hairy at last, huh?

BRILL news WYG.... I have just counted up and there were 11 BFPs in April and only 2 so far in May - c'mon peeps.

Have had an odd week, bumped into someone we used to do a music class with (DSs the same age), and she got pg the same time as me last summer. After my MMC I realised she was pg some weeks later, she revealed that her EDD was the same as mine (would have been). I remember blurting out, so your 20 week scan must be next week. She looked a bit surprised that I had such a good handle on the calendar! She changed groups shortly after (not due to my weirdness.... I don't think...). Saw her again this week at a playgroup, of course she has her TWO children in tow... baby in sling. Again like a weirdo I blurt out, ooo he must be 9 weeks. Yes that's right she says... Arsicles I thought - that SHOULD be me too, and I'm not even pg again, let alone with another bundle!! Then we see her AGAIN yesterday - is she stalking me to taunt me!!!! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Rant over. As you were.

Tarra x

AlbaDeTamble · 20/05/2010 15:14

just popping in to say huge congrats to WYG and wave to all, still following all your news but sooooo tired, it's hard to keep up sometimes.

I shed a tear for you and little Gracie Viv. I do hope this is your month x

Goodluckbear · 20/05/2010 16:37

Congrats WestYorkshireGirl!!! Really pleased for you. Hope this is the start of a long run of May BFPs.

Hi to everyone else, I am keeping up with the thread, you guys are brilliant.

Jollster, hope your stalker moves on to a new target soon....

xxxx

barrenbrook · 20/05/2010 17:51

WYG Congrats lovely, fabulous news, here's to a very uneventful and boring eight months and a very sticky little bean. About time we had some happy news!

hairy hurrah for RTD, good that things are getting back to normal (or as normal as we can be when we're TTC!)

Glasgow welcome, sorry if I've said it already, am a rather large jelly head at the moment.

Magic Thinking of you for Saturday lovely, sorry RTD got you before but like the others have said least you can have a few fizzies!

Pretty Hmm, I believe that you are gonna get a big bunch of fab to make up for all the shitey bollocks you've had. So there. AND clearly it has already started trickling through with the quick appointment.

There endeth my prediction for today. Maybe I should change my name to mysticbrook.....

Oh and me, just to add insult to injury, my hair has started falling out and I now have a fucking bald patch on the top of my head. I had alopecia years ago and it seems it has picked now to rear it's ugly balding bastard head! Pantaloons!!!!

Right, I'm off. Anyone know a good wig maker?

hairytriangle · 20/05/2010 18:11

Bloody he'll ! Ended up in casualty and now admitted after heavy bleed leg pain tummy pain n faint!!! Think I'm ok had another scan still waiting 4 result. Out tomorrow I think!

barrenbrook · 20/05/2010 18:32

Holy crapsticks hairy sorry to hear that. Least you are going to be looked after now and something will most definitely be done. Hope the scan comes back OK. Thinking of you

dorcas111 · 20/05/2010 18:37

Oh no hairy, that's awful! Glad you are being looked after though. You must be so fed up with all this, wishing you a speedy recovery and that they can sort out whatever it is quickly.
barrenbrook, that's crap about the hair falling out, you don't deserve that on top of everything else. Sometimes our bodies seem like they are really not on our side. I hope that it is just temporary- might it be linked to hormones, and stop when things start getting back to normal? Sorry, don't know much about it but I'll keep my fx it isn't going to come back long term.
Glasgow, hello and welcome.
Hi everyone else, hope you have had nice days.
Two days till my RTD and I am finding it really hard. I think that waiting for it to come is bringing back memories of when I was pregnant and in limbo for three days, bleeding but not knowing if I was miscarrying or not, clinging on to hope but losing it by the hour. Waiting for the RTD to come, not knowing for sure one way or another, hoping but feeling despondent too... it is making me wonder if I am not ready for TTC yet, perhaps I needed more time to grieve for the baby as I seem to be finding this far harder than I think I should. I just don't really feel like myself right now

clareanna · 20/05/2010 19:58

hairy eek - sounds hairy - poor poor you, hope you are being well looked after and have a quiet night in hospital..

bbrook alopecia - what a nightmare, last thing you need now, I shake my fist at the sky on your behalf.

dorcas the grief ebbs and flows a lot, having a TTC break for a month has done me wonders. I still feel teary occasionally but taking away the stress of am I aren't I has helped me just focus on my life a bit - just do what feels right for you x

jolls definitely sounds like archetypal stalker - suggest you move immediately and change name / hair colour. She is probably part of the bump mafia who are chasing me at the moment.

Ds's actual 3rd birthday tomorrow - so we're off for fun and frolics at Thomasland...
feel so proud of him - just want to be able to give him a brother or sister before his next birthday.

clareanna · 20/05/2010 20:00

Bbrook - could you channel Isabella Blow and develop a penchant for wearing outrageous phillip treacy hats wherever you go? would certainly provide a talking point when doing the weekly shop?!

northerngoldilocks · 20/05/2010 20:09

hairy - hope you're ok and can go home soon - although hopefully you'll be properly checked over before you do go home.

dorcas sorry to ear you're feeling - no words of wisdom but think its ok to still feel down. I managed spin without crying today, but then cried when DPs cousin announced on fbook that she was 20 wks pregnant today - I'm pleased for her really - just

On the bright side - its going to be a beautiful weekend - and its almost Friday which means work is nearly over!

WestYorkshireGirl · 20/05/2010 20:24

Hi All

Thanks for much for your lovely wishes. Felt fine all day, but just back from Pilates and feel so tired I can't keep my eyes open so will catch up tomorrow earlier in the day.

randomimposter · 20/05/2010 20:31

clareanna - funnily enough I AM moving house, and REALLY need to get the grey covered up - so I think your advice is well sound. Also top fashion tip for BB too. GLB, I wouldn't wish her on anyone else, however....

hairy are you just undercover in a gritty warts and all docu-drama/disaster movie....? Can anything else fall in your lap...!!??? Hope you're doing ok.

BB one word. Arsicles. But totally concur with the whole body worn out/under stress thing. Hope you're totally replenished and rejuvenated soon - do you take iron supplements? Might be an idea? Spatone is good.

Dorcas - you win the jollyjojollsterjollification squeeze for today.

Waves wearily to all
xx

hairytriangle · 20/05/2010 22:05

Bloody he'll ! Ended up in casualty and now admitted after heavy bleed leg pain tummy pain n faint!!! Think I'm ok had another scan still waiting 4 result. Out tomorrow I think!

hairytriangle · 20/05/2010 22:09

Woops! Joll thanks for that it cheered
me up n thanks for all your good wishes.

Doc says am healthybin all respects but still waiting for tdays hcg results x

BUnderTheBonnet · 20/05/2010 22:15

Big pukey huge boobied congrats to WYG!

Started spotting today, and it wasn't as horrific as I was fearing. Hope this period is a light one so I don't end up freaking out in a loo somewhere. My DH was very disappointed though. I think he takes it as a personal insult to his manly sperm.

batteryhen · 20/05/2010 22:33

Evening all,

just popping in to say hello . Congrats to WYG, may your boobs grow huge and you not be able to see your feet for the next 9 months or so!hairy - I swear you are trying to turn us all grey and put years on us - I hope you are feeling better and things are turning a corner for you. Bbrooksorry to hear about the hair loss - I bet you will look fabulous in a hat though x

I went for a massage tonight and on the last form I filled in I had to put about the MMC so she brought it up tonight - I didn't mind really, I was just eager to get my kit off and on the bed - knackered I am

Does anyone believe in fate or 'signs'? Last time I fell pregnant, I kept seeing twins everywhere, and then I fell pregnant with twins - now its happening again, maybe its a little sign. Maybe I am actually crazy Had a word with my ovaries tonight to see if they could rustle up and egg or 2 for next week whilst I am in Germany. I didn't get a reply, so I am going to assume they will do what they like despite pleading requests from me .

Good news is its nearly friday - and its going to be a lovely hot weekend

Night all xx

Magic8ballhastheanswers · 21/05/2010 08:12

Just a quick note to say thanks for all your messages ladies.

Going back to the scene of the crime today exactly a year to the day when I was whizzed in, couldn't have been allocated a worse day for my pre op. At least I will be arriving at my own leisurely pace today rather than by ambo.....

Sorry for not name checking x
