Going back a bit...
cloud it sounds v proactive to sit down and discuss the situation candidly with a consultant. For what it's worth, it has taken me anywhere between 1 and 8 months to get pg in the past, and it was when we were in a not very place and DTD just once per cycle that it took 8. I have everything crossed that it happens for you ASAP.
On that note, daisy it can be tough deciding to TTC again. This one was conceived first cycle post Coventry scratch and I was really in 2 minds about trying, as I just felt I couldn't face all the 'necessary' sex, and all that comes after. As march says, Prof Brosens said the benefits of the scratch lasts a few cycles. I am 41 so he basically said get on with it ASAP. Its tough, I do hope you reach a decision that feels right for you.
March hope you sort the course thing. What a total pain. I think you are right in tbat as you have carries a child to full term in the past you are unlikely to have any uterine abnormality...unless possibly if you had a horrendous/complex labour/birth?
Tanny that is very sad, your poor poor colleague. I hope she has good support around her.
belle I have also had a bad 12 week scan followed by tfmr in the past, and its totally understandable that your scanxiety is sky high for Thursday. As others have said, one bad scan that sounds like it was random bad luck does not mean another. It needs to just be Thursday and be over and done with. Candy crush (I actually don't know what that is but it sounds good) is no doubt as effective as the Zen approach, I'd stick with it. I don't know about you but I have become very secretive about my MC's and pg's..and can imagine that for someone else to be able to see you are pg must feel very strange, particularly if its the first time that has happened. Try to let that go over your head and get through the next couple of days. Virtual hand holding and hugs being sent your way.
cat good luck for tomorrow, hand holding all the way.
just read back properly now. Just brilliant. And another scan next week to further reassure you.
By dates I am 7+5, but by O more like 7/7+1. Dr said she really can't date it as its just not effective until 9 or 10 weeks. I kept interrogating her about the size (9mm embryo) and she kept saying its really ok. She then offered me a scan in 10 days so that's good, PLUS she prescribed more clexane without blinking - Prof Brosens used to work there and she did research with him, so its great not to have to explain it all.
Sorry if I missed anyone.
Thanks all for the hand holding, it makes a huge difference xxx
