Oinker, just wanted to add to the best wishes and hope tomorrow goes well. As everyone has said, Prof Regan is a legend so I hope she can help you. Can I ask if you were under her care for any of previous mcs? I just wanted to say I'll be thinking of you.

kate2179 · 12/02/2008 22:34

Oinker so sorry to hear what you've been through, really hope this is the sticky one you've been longing for xx

Popsy I'm on the progesterone "supplements" () too, cyclogest 200mg to be exact. I know that medical opinion is very much divided on whether there is any benefit in taking them, Prof Regan and Co at St Mary's don't support it. But what everyone seems to agree is that now they are biochemically identical to human progesterone they def won't do any harm, so worth a go as far as I can see! The main reason I'm taking them is that right at the beginning of this pg (all of 3 and a bit weeks ago - feels like a lifetime!) my hcg rose well but my progesterone started falling quite sharply. So as far as I can see it's worth a go. All I know is that at my scan at 6+5 I saw a baby with a heartbeat measuring exactly right for dates when I'd been TOLD the pg was def failing almost a week before that. So while I don't know if that has anything to do with the cyclogest, I'm not about to stop taking it now! In fact the only reason I continued it between the final blood test and the scan was because I desperately didn't want to mc at home, so glad I didn't stop taking it! Really hope it works out for both of us this time! ((hugs))

Hello to everyone else

Twilight so glad to hear everything's going smoothly for you this time. Has the nausea stopped yet? If your bump's grown as much as you say then it's time for another belly pic!

Uki · 13/02/2008 11:32

Hang in there ladies your doing well. wishing you all healthy pg's

oinker- OMG OMG, lovely to see you here. Oh boy are you going to have a special baby, you are just so amazing to keep positive. Sending you extra strength and luck. HANG IN THERE baby bean. Thinking of you xxx

Ah Jules - 16+2 that's FANTASTIC, it'll go quick now. Do you know the flavor? I bet she/he will be ultra dotted on

re: Mrs Mc, Am I the only one that thinks it's weird that she has not made one post since birth , or even of the birth for that matter. I'm just a worry wart, I guess. Anyway i hope her ears burn and she comes and puts me out of my misery

EllieG · 13/02/2008 12:09

uki your DC's are gorgeous. I want my baby now!

Ooooo! I love 4 d scans! We can't get them over here. Will you put the pics on your profile?

feedmenow · 13/02/2008 13:22

Hi Uki! Can't believe he is 6 months!! Mrsmc will have a hell of a lot to catch up on when her little bubba starts letting her back on MN I was a little worried about her to, but so long as someone here has heard from her I'm happy.

Jules, think I may have made you sound like a pg 15 year old on the other thread!! Looking forward to seeing some of your 4d piccies after tomorrow....

Gracie14 · 13/02/2008 13:56

Hi all,

I haven't been on for ages trying to keep busy and not panic at the slightest pain, ache, etc.

Had my first midwife appointment on Friday -not that impressed to be honest! She asked if I had any worries and said just about miscarrying and she said 'well if it happens it happens there is nothing you can do about it' very reassuring!!!

Now just have to wait until next Friday for my scan - keep dreaming that they aren't going to find anything must stay positive though.

I'm 11+1 today.

Hope you are all keeping well. Will try and catch up with posts when I can

EllieG · 13/02/2008 14:42

Healthy and well Gracie - come and rant with us if you need to anytime x

oinker · 13/02/2008 16:57

Hiya ladies...

OMG you are all sooooooo kind...
Thnak you all so much for those positive vibes.

I had my scan today. No sign of beanie or sac. Womb lining is thick though. They reckon it is too soon to see anything on the scan. Consultant very positive. Womb is correct thickness for dates. They reckon I am about 4weeks 4days. I tested on day 28 of my cycle and it was negative. Tested on day 30 and it was a faint positive. I reckon I must have had the dates wrong.
I am back in for a scan on Wednesday morning.

)))))))))))))HUGS(((((((((((((((((( and thanks.
