I had my 7th mcs about 9 weeks ago (i think, i didnt write any dates down, have little memory of about 2 weeks during the time, due to the drugs i was pumped with)
In short, i dont know when it occurred.

Ive sought councelling because i have never talked about my mcs ever, to any one.(well, only to you lot Smile)
Additionally, i am coming up 42, and thught that that was IT the end, no more, even went and got the pill.

Patiently waiting for my period so that i could start taking the damned thing.
No af as yet.
Feeling much better in myself, councelling really really helping, im on a healthy eating mission (thanks to myfitnesspal) doing really well.

Accepting everything, although the grief has been overwhelming at times Sad.

So af still not here, so bought a cheepy test, thought that all pregnancy hrmones will now be gone...this far after mc....almost immediately a pink line came up.

We dtd only a couple of times..it normally took me up to 22 months to concieve so this has floored me...completely and totally. Do not know what the jeff i should do?????????
All calming words of wisdom very much appreciated....i know i know, theres no fool like an old fool.. Sad

chuffed for you :)

SomethingSuitablyWitty · 20/07/2012 08:55

Congratulations! Happy 12 weeks!

I can't believe there is a portable scanner at work that you can nab for a sneaky scan. That's hilarious. I would have been unstoppable with that kind of access.

Hope it's all plain sailing from here! Wishing you all the best Thanks

That's just amazing! So have you got a scan date yet? And will your husband be able to come with you for that?

nosleepwithworry · 20/07/2012 15:30

Scan next Tuesday afternoon!

Going to meet with the abnormalitles expert midwife who will talk me through the amnio after the dating scan, and she will probably give me a date for that too.

Ive started to tell people in rl, all but one of them have given me huge gugs, shed a wee tear and said they are fantastically chuffed for us.

One friend of 25 years rolled her eyes and said "oh no, not this again" then proceeded to ask me if i planned on getting the tablets (abortion pills) or on having a D&C this time.
She has been with me through all of my mcs, sat with me hour after hour in hospital when dh couldnt be there becuase we have no one to look after ds.
She got me good painkillers when in severe pain and desperately desperately sad and distressed and has been a wondeful support. (She is aspergers so doesnt get it, hence the frank questions btw)

Apart from that....everyone so far has been thrilled for us. Grin
