Aoifebelle · 22/05/2013 09:13

Hello ladies I have been quietly lurking. Was going to continue doing so but wanted to respond to all your lovely messages.

Managing to stay positive here, actually feel weirdly calm. We really can dig into hidden reserves of strength when needed.

Have spent the morning looking at the profs publications. He really is the dude it comes to this stuff, he practically invented the nuchal test. I can understand why he has all the rich ladies swooning at him. maybe I can get a discount if I tell him I work for charidee.

Congrats to all who had good scan news, hopefully I will just be a bit late to the party.

I will post again when I have more info. Xx

shellsocks · 22/05/2013 09:45

Good luck aoife am thinking of you x

JanieLovesLuckySocks · 22/05/2013 09:49

aw hi Aoife, thinking of you today and hoping this george clooney of the gynae world doctor gives you some super good news.

happy birthday bump! hope you're having a wee non alco erdinger to celebrate tonight (or maybe a half glass of red)

ibip i'm very jealous of upcoming baby cuddles! i'm still trying to get over this cold before i go for baby squeezes with my friend's new little bambino :)

vix and garden it defo starts feeling more real when people know your secret! since telling work last week i've had a bit of a positive pep in my step which feels good. tweaking like mad down there today though, hope my bath last night wasn't too hot, DH got in after though and said it was freezing so hopefully i'm being silly.

stats update from me too...

Goodluck aoife thinking of you today, goodluck x

Pentagon · 22/05/2013 10:44

Vix congratulations on your scan! Fab news!

Bump happy birthday, I hope you have a lovely day!

Aoife so nice to hear from you! Glad you're feeling positive! Are you seeing Professor Nicolaides? I've read that he's there on Wednesdays so hopefully your appointment will be with him but even if it's not I think he normally pops in to advise. I have everything crossed for you, good luck!

DIY it looks like you only have a couple of weeks' left of pregnancy-related migraines so hang on in there!

Not much to report here, work is hectic at the moment and driving me crazy! I've worn a maternity bra for the first time today as I've noticed that my normal bras started digging in recently. Not even looking at baby things for now, will do after my 20-week scan if everything goes well (brrr, not even thinking about it at the moment)

jmf294 · 22/05/2013 11:54

Aoife- you are in the best hands possible and I hope that gives you some reassurance and confidence. Still thinking of you.

Happy birthday bump!! Hope you have a lovely day- double excuse to eat lots of cake.

I'm still feeling sick- thought I would vomit in the car this morning- not good!! 12 weeks tomorrow but still have the hurdle of next weeks results to overcome first. I haven't told anyone my secret yet- well except DH.

WillSantaComeAgain · 22/05/2013 13:10

Right, a second day of not feeling sick and I'm even more nervous. I know every pg is different, but my experiences so far of successful and non-successful pregnancies don't give me much hope to cling on to. I've got my booking appt tomorrow so I will see if I can get an early scan, though as I've already had one, I doubt they'll let me have another. Otherwise I will see how it goes over the weekend, and if my symptoms get less, then I'll book myself in for a private scan next week.

Oh why, why, why does it have to be this hard???? I'm really busy at work and yet all I can think about it is "I wonder if i have a dead baby in my uterus". (Apologies, I know that's not a nice thought). Where's my posifrickitivity????

BumpKitty · 22/05/2013 13:23

santa now come on, you need a good fish slap. I hope they will give you another scan so you can be reassured but symptoms change all the time and are not a good indication. Hope you get a lovely mw.

ibip we are scan buddies! What time is yours? I'm at 12.10pm. We can count down together :)

Bakingtins · 22/05/2013 13:28

It's rubbish, Santa Sad It's very hard to stay positive when you've had previous bad experiences. I have my scan tomorrow and am convinced there is no HB in there. Have already got it planned out that I'll carry on with the progesterone for our short trip to London over the bank holiday w/end then allow nature to take it's course as I'm off the rest of half term. Completely lost all posifrickingtivity - did anyone see where it went?
Hope you feel reassuringly sick for the next few days. If it helps, I've never really felt sick in any of my pregnancies, successful ones no different to the MCs.

OP posts:
Vixjane · 22/05/2013 15:18

I think we've all had days of symtpoms lessening throughout pg if you look back at posts etc and if there's no cramping or spotting it's probably just an eaiser couple of days for you santa.

fingers crossed for your scan tomorrow baking we can share the posifrickingtivity around don't worry!

Job interview is over and done with and now playing the waiting game...supposed to be working (from home) but not actually getting anything done! Shock

Aoifebelle · 22/05/2013 15:26

Hey ladies I think it may be goodbye from me. Results of scan were about as bad as could be, chances of this being a healthy pregnancy looking very slim. We are heartbroken.

I am sending you the last vestiges of my posifrickintivity. Please think of this as me taking one for the team so now go forth and have lovely healthy babies. Once I am a bit more healed I might lurk in from time to time.good luck to you all xx

andadietcoke · 22/05/2013 15:39

Oh Aoife, I'm so very sorry it wasn't good news. Hang on to some posifrickintivity for yourself for the next few days and after; please take very good care of each other and yourselves.

Lots of love, posifrickintivity and girly hugs, Hannah xx

Vixjane · 22/05/2013 15:40

aoife i'm so so sorry. hope you have lots of support in RL and that you know you're in everyone's thoughts here xxx

GardenWorm · 22/05/2013 15:59

Aoife that's heartbreaking, are there more tests or is that a definitive answer? Whatever you decide we are here thinking of you. I totally understand this may not be where you want to be though. I and everyone else will be thinking of you and if you need us you know where we are. Big hugs, I hope you are getting lots of support in RL xxx

shellsocks · 22/05/2013 16:00

aoife I'm so sorry, if there is anything I (and I'm sure I speak for us all) can do to support you please let me know....I hope things go as smoothly as possible from here and good luck for the future whatever you decide xxx

Bakingtins · 22/05/2013 16:06

Oh Aoife I'm so sorry. None of "the team" want anything to go wrong for any of us. I hope you are being well supported and looked after.

OP posts:
jmf294 · 22/05/2013 16:16

Aoife- I'm so very sorry to hear you sad news.
You had been in my thoughts all day and I was so hoping for better news for you.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and pray that you are blessed with the strength to face the journey ahead of you.
Take things gently, be kind to yourself and ensure you get the support from whatever source you need.

pumpkinsweetie · 22/05/2013 16:44

I'm so very sorry for your sad news aoifeSad. Sending my love to you Thanks

Zeuxippe · 22/05/2013 17:08

I'm so sorry aoife. It's so very sad.

Thinking of you and sending you our love x

LuckySocks13 · 22/05/2013 17:28

oh Aoife, I'm so very very sorry to hear your news. How heart breaking. Sending you love and strength at this difficult time Flowers Hoping that there maybe more tests that can be done?

Pentagon · 22/05/2013 17:28

oh aoife I'm so sorry (and upset) to hear your news :-( your post brought tears to my eyes, life is so unfair sometimes... Good luck with the next steps and I am sure you will have a lovely, healthy baby soon! Lots of love & hugs. xx

DIYandEatCake · 22/05/2013 17:36

Oh crap aoife, was so so hoping you'd have better news. Wishing you strength and courage and the very very best of luck for the future, whatever the outcome of this pregnancy. As baking says none of us wants this to happen to any of us, it's so unbelievably cruel. Thinking of you x
