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 :)

That's great news that faith's eating Baking.
I'll be thinking of you Twilight

Great scan news, belle and just - another milestone ticked off! Hope you can start to relax a bit and enjoy your pregnancies.

Just got babybombed on Facebook, ugh. I'm actually quite cross, this is someone who had a mc herself and really should know better Hmm

Think I'm starting to spot, looks as if AF is on her way HmmHmm

tannyLoo · 03/02/2015 23:23

Twilight hand holding for tomorrow.

Baking you are doing the best for her, and she won't remember this when she's older.

Bootles good that you can go back to Prof B. They are so good at trying to find a way to support you.

Cloud you can't be out yet, I'm still crossing everything!

Here we have clearly dropped, it feels loads better, but don't know if it'll last. Might explain the quiet night and morning though. I still have a week to go until I'm considered term, so must keep my legs crossed...

Just running in quickly to say good luck to twilight for today. We'll all be there with you Thanks .

Marchgirl · 04/02/2015 07:02

Good luck today twilight. Keeping everything crossed for you.

Brilliant news on the scan belle

You're not out yet cloud. Could be implantation. Stay positive x

twilightstruggle · 04/02/2015 07:05

Thanks for the best wishes everyone. On the train now and the appointment is at 9am. Trying to remind myself it could go either way but not feeling very positive at all. I'm so bemused by the fact that our experience of pregnancy is so different from 'everyone' else's.

Congrats on the great scan news from yesterday! Glad Faith's appt went well. Waves at everyone else - sorry, I haven't read terribly thoroughly and my concentration is elsewhere.

Sunandrainbow · 04/02/2015 07:12

Congratulations on yesterday's scans.

twilight - everything is crossed for you this morning. x

Monten · 04/02/2015 07:18

Really quickly ... Good luck twilight. Will be thinking of you.

So much more to say but have to dash to work. An extremely hungover - got on one last night with a colleague putting the world to rights...
Will be back later

Floweroct · 04/02/2015 07:34

Good luck twilight

longestlurkerever · 04/02/2015 07:53

Really pleased about the scans belle and Just. It gets slightly easier from here on, bar the odd panic over movements.

Glad Faith is ok and have everything crossed for positive results and a successful weaning off the drugs.

Twilight good luck. Really feel for you and hope everything is well.

Purple sorry you're not well. Hope they get to the bottom of it.

Bootles I hope the prof has some ideas.

Flen · 04/02/2015 08:01

Good news on scans yesterday, hooray!

baking cortisol will only affect the developing brain if it's subject to regular and repeated flooding, so Faith will be totally fine. Glad she (and you) made it through the tests ok.

Twilight hope it goes well today.

AF arrived this morning, which was frankly a relief at CD34! I'm wondering what has caused the irregular cycle - last month was totally normal. Do I remember someone taking Agnus Castus to regulate cycles? Was it tanny? In any case, back on the TTC wagon... SIGH.

tannyLoo · 04/02/2015 08:08

Flen our bodies are weird! I think it was longest who took AC. I took maca root, pomegranate juice and royal jelly along with b complex and omega complex. Was rattling!

mrsdiddlydoo · 04/02/2015 08:11

Fingers and toes and every other bit of me crossed for you this morning twilight

Marchgirl · 04/02/2015 08:22

Sorry to hear that flen Sad ,but glad at least the limbo is over and you can make a fresh start. my cycle last month was totally haywire - 38 days instead of 32. I've started the acupuncture to try and normalise it so fingers crossed it will help. Have you tried it?

Flen · 04/02/2015 08:25

march my mum is an acupuncturist, so have had plenty over the years! I'm trying craniosacral osteopathy at the moment (also to try to help with migraines) but I know lots of people recommend acupuncture so have been wondering whether to go back to it..,

Flen · 04/02/2015 08:28

tanny how did you take the maca, in a powder? Can you take while TTC? Or do you need not to be?

longestlurkerever · 04/02/2015 08:48

Flen sorry to hear that but glad you're on a new cycle. I did take ac but don't know if it worked as only took it for 2 cycles. Af came on time (42 days for me) after mc though whereas previous wtf cycle was 8 weeks. Then I got pregnant next cycle but bu my dates I think ov may have been brought forward a couple of days.

Brummiegirl15 · 04/02/2015 08:49

Good luck Twilight everything crossed for you !!! xx

Marchgirl · 04/02/2015 08:51

Ah. Lucky to have someone to do the acupuncture thing for you flen. I've no idea if it will help me but feel happy to be trying something else

Catlover2014 · 04/02/2015 09:01

Good luck twilight. Great news belle

Sorry for late reply bootles dh left me stood in the cold for 40 minutes as he left work v late and had no thought to call me to say so. I missed my gym class as was so late and then was made to sit in the car for over an hour while he ran his errands. He has such a shock coming if this baby makes it! X

Catlover2014 · 04/02/2015 09:04

flen my SIM said she had great results with Angus but I read somewhere it's best for shortened cycles?

barking when can you take the test? Keeping everything crossed for you. X

TinyTear · 04/02/2015 09:08

Good luck twilight x

Jady77 · 04/02/2015 09:16

Thinking of you today Twilight

twilightstruggle · 04/02/2015 09:31

Good news! Little baby with a heartbeat measuring right. So bloody relieved.
