Rooting for you girlie!

bakingtins · 18/04/2015 19:02

Congratulations girlie hope the trial helps you on the way to your rainbow!

Flen · 18/04/2015 19:02

girlie eeek! Gentle congratulations from me too!

Thanks for all your kind words everyone. It really helps. Unfortunately I think my sister is just being a bit of a nob about this! (She had an argument with my other sister in which she said that I was totally out of order and why should she contact me...) I think it will come out in the wash eventually, but it is hard right now.

Congratulation on your bfp girlie. We're all here to cheer your sticky bean on. Fingers crossed this one is your time!!!

Flower I hope you get good news before your IVF appointment and it's not needed. Keep us informed if you do go.

Hugs to others and am sorry I'm a bit behind on the feed. Always hoping for good news and fortune for all on here.

I'm finding myself very hormonal and anxious today. Sorry to moan as know how lucky I am but I just wish I could fast forward the next 10 weeks. Feel worried sick something will will go wrong. After all these years of shit it's hard to believe anything could come good.

I still feel the same cat one day at a time Flowers
Inspired by tanny I tie dyed some baby gros today

flen hugs

Catlover2014 · 18/04/2015 20:03

Whoop to tiedye Purple. I might do myself if I make it maternity leave break.

You're right one day at a time and no crystal ball gazing. Is so hard at times.

Just read your post Flen. It's hard when those we love the most can't understand how we feel. Thinking of you.

Cat, I know what you mean. Had first NCT class today and kept having to remind myself not to ask really dark, alarming questions. Didn't want to frighten the other couples with my mad dark mind...

Catlover2014 · 18/04/2015 21:08

It is hard just. You're doing better than me though!!! I couldn't face doing NCT as I was too worried about feeling brassed off with all the instant duffers there haha. X

Cat, no one mentioned histories at all, and the info was really useful. x

Thanks lovely ladies for your wishes. Think the shock as worn off and panic is setting in. Desperately trying to ignore the doubting Donald away from my mind. Spoken to the Response trial nurse and I'll either go in Monday or Tuesday to begin my drugs. Hopefully few more bfp soon from the other ladies x

Brummiegirl15 · 18/04/2015 22:22

I think that's another reason why I'm so scared about Monday. Nothing stopping us after that - we can start again. And that is terrifying me.

Desperately trying to rid very heavy very nasty cold before Monday.I'm defo not flu ridden as had flu vaccine back when I was pregnant

But that's the only thing convincing me I don't have flu - plus I don't have a temp but Christ I feel dreadful

Second weekend in a row ruined because I'm so poorly.

Feel better soon, Brummie. x

tannyLoo · 18/04/2015 22:44

Oh poor you, brummie, it sounds miserable. I got very down physically after my last MC. I ended up with something that made my arthritis flare up, which was vile and probably some virus. I hope you feel better tomorrow and that it's much better for Monday. I understand that fear of trying again. I'm sure we all do. We must want our bumps reading to keep on trying...

Purple, that's so sweet! I am still using my tie dye babygros, although he grew out of his newborn size almost straight away.

Bertie is six weeks old today and I can't remember what life was like before him.

I think we're going to have a run on BFPs soon...

IFinishedTheBiscuits · 19/04/2015 00:08

Congrats girlie!

Brummie, there's more than one strain of flu, they take a guess on which to include in vaccination and did hear they got it a bit wrong this/last year? So possibly could be flu - but still more likely to be a cold/other virus. Hope you feel better soon.

Regarding sisters... Maybe everything is more emotionally charged with family. We don't hold back, dredge up things from years back and then forget about it again.

girliesaints · 19/04/2015 07:33

Hope you're feeling better soon Brummie, it's the worst when you want to be well for something, even more so when it's MC related x

cloudjumper · 19/04/2015 07:57

Well, I just poas. With the awful dtd timing this month, I never thought I had any chance whatsoever, but it's CD12, and still no AF, so I thought I'd check.
It's a BFP.
Two tests, one internet cheapie, one FRER. Both show the second line, fainter than I like, but it's there (DH has confirmed). Bloody hell.

girliesaints · 19/04/2015 08:05

Whispering congratulations Cloud! bfp buddy ??

CheesyMash · 19/04/2015 08:07

Yeyyy cloud!!! I'm so pleased for you! Smile Sorry, I can't remember but are you on any protocol?
tanny you have a 6th sense! Hope the bfps keep on coming!

sebsmummy1 · 19/04/2015 08:09

barkingtreefrog · 19/04/2015 08:24

Ooo, many gentle congrats cloud and girlie Smile Absolutely everything crossed this is your time. I'm away for the weekend with a cycling club and got chatting to a lady yesterday about my fertility treatment (came up in a round about way talking about how quickly you lose fitness when you can't train for a couple of weeks). Turns out she had 7 miscarriages before her happy ending, and now has two boys. This was going back a few years now, they are both adults now. All her pregnancies got to 12 weeks before she lost them. She was finally put on injections and it worked. There is a happy ending out there for all of us, I'm convinced of it Thanks .

flen your priority is you. If your sister has selfish and unrealistic expectations that is her problem not yours. Sorry you have to deal with it though Thanks

Minnie74 · 19/04/2015 08:30

Congratulations! cloud so happy for you.

All these bfps make me want to get going on the ttc and not wait till next month for Coventry! Don't want to miss the wave!

brummie hope the cold is feeling better today. Fingers crossed for tomorrow x

CheesyMash · 19/04/2015 08:39

barking that's a lovely story that I'm sure will give everyone hope. Glad to hear you're enjoying your cycling.

brummie how are you today? Hope it clears up for tomorrow.

minnie it'll be worth the wait!
