Information, support, hand holding, tea, sympathy and a hell of a lot of combined knowledge - all welcome as we try to make sense of the RMC roller coaster of tests, NHS admin, heart ache and (hopefully) happy endings!
Please start with a recap of your stats :)

Thanks Belle that does help!!! We can ignore these patterns and think positive Smile

I have decided this one will be differen. Especially as she isn't someone I should envy in anyway, in fact quite the opposite.

Impressive that you've been head hunted btw. You're obviously rocking it!!

diddly glad you're getting some blood tests through GP. It's a great start. Everyone has to decidewhat's right for them but I have to say I have not regretted getting some private care along the way. Yes it's expensive but means more much to me than a new car, holiday or kitchen. I feel sure I never would have got pregnant if I'd left to nhs. If this pregnancy works it's worth every penny! XxxX

cat I don't think you are any different from anyone of us - look at all the stories that people have told! We all have these little things that look completely random to anyone else, but for us, they have so much meaning.
Have you maybe thought about how many people have announced pregnancies at your work when you haven't been pg yourself? My guess is that it's a similar number, and that there is no pattern. But when we are pg, everything gets blown out of proportion, and we start making these connections... But whether you are pg or not, someone will always announce that they are pg. Hope you have managed to calm down now.

march Isn't it just rubbish that we get to a point that we wish they would find something wrong with us?! Something treatable, for which they can give you a magic pilldrug or treatment, which will then guarantee success.
I think if they have found nothing so far, and if your babies were chromosomally normal, Coventry is something to think about. It was my next port of call, until we found out about the trisomy in the last pg. So for me, I don't see much point in going - but I wish sometimes that it had been an option.

Gosh speedy thread again...

Sorry tiny to hear about your Grandmother

Good news Charlie!

Good luck tomorrow just...virtual hand holding a plenty

march I echo what cloud says, and I think we all understand how complex the emotion of 'normal' results is.

cloud I really truly hope that your appointment in January is helpful, and can understand why you are anxious. What you are actually doing is being very brave, very proactive, and taking tbe bull by the horns. Your post was so sad to read, and you have had such a tough time. I'm not sure you should discount Coventry - there are all the benefits of the scratch perhaps? Hugs flowers and cake to you xxx

Good luck today just

Justonemoretime · 16/12/2014 07:04

Thanks Ladies. Scan is at 2:40 so got to go to work first. I have woken up with a stinking head cold so feeling crap, but it is kind of taking my mind off worrying (for now).

Good luck just!

Thanks cloud you are right and I feel brighter today. Expected to mc in the night like I did last time I was pg and a girl announced. No blood or pains yet so all good. Hope you're ok?

Hope you're all having a decent Tuesday. Much as I hate Christmas these days the break from work cannot come soon enough!

Xx

longestlurkerever · 16/12/2014 14:35

Blood test results back. Risk of 1 in 2136. I'll take those odds!
Fuck, this might actually happen.

Belleende · 16/12/2014 15:48

just thinking of you.

Whoop Belle more great news for the feed Smile

Daisybell1 · 16/12/2014 16:32

I've got behind again, sorry!

Tiny, I'm so sorry about your grandma, thinking of you

Charlie - great news on the scan!

Girlie - sometimes it's the tiniest comment which can set you off. Be kind to yourself

March - it's not mad. i came away from a St Marys appointment in floods of tears and wept all over the research midwife about how I'd ever find the strength to try again with no diagnosis. The consultant felt by the following weekend I'd be pleased to be in the no diagnosis group. Needless to say that after 10 months and a further mc I'm not there yet. ..Hmm

Everything crossed for you Just.

Have had a half arsed ttc attempt here so have started cytoglast this morning - crumbs I feel sick!

Justonemoretime · 16/12/2014 16:48

thanks ladies. Just back from hospital. Scan fine, 12.6 wks, nuchal fold 1.4. We now await blood results...
Great news for you. Belle! Grin
