Thinking of you barking! Good luck! X

March, so pleased for you. As you said to me, one step at a time and today you're pregnant!

Home- firstly welcome and sorry for your losses. I had the same with appointments being cancelled and in the end I rang and spoke to the consultant's PA, explained the situation and she got my appointment brought forward. Maybe worth a try x

March brilliant!!

I've had woo needles, cried on my acupuncture lady. Now at the hospital in my gown and hairnet waiting to go into theatre. Going back to the woo lady afterwards so she can help the uterus relax so it doesn't cramp up and prevent implantation. Didn't do the before and after on the day last time so keen to try something different...

Keeping everything crossed for you barking. Go embie go!

Oooh Barking sorry the first didn't make it but you can do it. Huge hug for you. Think about hubby coming back and you are pregnant. Stay positive, this is what you need now. We are here for you.
March so pleased that you are pregnant. Haematomas are worrying but some will just be absorbed. Lots of love and wishes for the best of luck
homeboddy49 sorry not been there but I know how you feel. Cancelling appointments are very disappointing. Is he the only Dr? Are there no other alternatives. Maybe book the first app privately and then follow up with your NHS ones. Good luck

Good luck barking

march I know I said it on response thread but so happy for you and hope and prey all goes well

I've had a scan this morning 7w2d all was fine heartbeat was looking strong....now just day by day until next scan in 2 weeks x

Congrats on your scan news too gen. So so pleased for you xx

Great scan news march and gen

I can add to it by saying everything was as it should be in our anomaly scan. Well, except the placenta being in the wrong place... placenta previa. Had it with DS and the placenta had moved by the 32 week scan. Hoping the same happens again but booked in with a consultant in 3 weeks time anyway. Bit nervous about it but like dh and I said as we walked away, there's always something to worry about.

home you are not gate-crashing. Pull up a pew. Sorry to hear about the cancelled appointments. I'd def try girlie's suggestion of trying the consultant's pa. Don't worry about pestering them. It gets results sometimes.

Sorry, previous post posted again...

Not good news. I took one look at the photo of the embryo and my heart sank. It hasn't even expanded. I said that it didn't look as good as the last one and the embryologist said no, it isn't. On the notes she'd written 'poor'. She said it had suffered from the freeze but there was a chance it would continue to expand. She didn't look very hopeful. The nurse asked if I wanted the photo and I said no. It then fell out of my notes onto the floor and she stood on it. I burst into tears . Why the fuck did I think it was a good idea to do this on my own?
On a positive note I asked for gas and air and I got it .

Great news Mrsd and gen .

I'm now waiting for acupuncture again. She said it was important to have it 25 minutes after transfer. The receptionist has been on the phone since I arrived......

Just a quick post to let you know the scan was fine. Will post properly in a bit. Thanks for all your well wishes. Xxx

Sorry the embryo didn't look promising - but they must have thought it had a chance, otherwise they wouldn't have proceeded, right? Don't give up hope, sometimes good things happen against all odds. Having everything crossed for you.

Great scan news mrsD, bumble and gen!

Just read back. I'm sorry the embryo didn't look great barking. I agree with cloud, they wouldn't have gone ahead if there wasn't a chance though. You'll get through this. Big hugs x

Following on from my quick post, we saw and heard the heartbeat which was great and even saw it give a big kick. I measured 4 days ahead too so 10+1 which was nice.

Great news on scans bumble, gen and 'mrsdiddly

barking that sounds very hard, wishing so much that that little one pulls through and sticks in.

Great news, Bumble, sounds amazing .
Is that a full house of good scans then?

I'm currently swinging between attempting positive visualisations, and wanting to prepare myself for the worst. This is it, the end of the nhs funded support.
Can't help but think that two years ago this was a week before finding out I was pregnant the first time. If this works, the edd would be within a few days of my first. Weird.

Barking, so sorry you don't feel optimistic. Hugs and positive vibes to you.

Great scan news everyone else. I had placenta praevia, too and it moved (and then practically disintegrated), but they'll be keeping a close eye on you, Mrsd. xx

Great scan news gen & mrsdidd
Barking dear sorry it wasn't great embryo but as said it must have a chance or they wouldn't have done it. Will keep everything crossed for you. It's hard on your own. Please keep it up to help it.

Sorry missed to say good scan news Bumble

Oh barking**! Its so tense - i really feel for you. It is not without hope though, but i understand about protecting yourself. I'm currently reading the body mind fertility book and think syate of mind is very powerful "I am strong, healthy and fertile" or "i am pregnant". Sheesh, this is fuckibg tough going babe - i totally acknowledge your situation. Xxx

bumble* diddily and gen* - well done and hats off for good scan news ladies!

Not feeling remotely strong freckle. Need to walk the dog but just sobbing on the sofa and don't want to leave the house . Texted my mate to see if she could walk the dog for me but no reply .

barking**, you are allowed to cry. Its ok. Just remember it IS in the ballance. It IS NOT a done deal. It is a very fraught and emotional situation, but don't let it blur your focus. You are not at the end of your story yet. Its just a very dramatic chapter. Xxxx
