I'm getting ready to leave for the day but I keep checking in hoping to hear from Lucy. A few of my cousins are coming into town and we're doing pedicures, shopping, and dinner. Alex is out of town today and tomorrow so I'm on my lonesome.

I'm a big FRER waster and I just tested again using 2nd morning urine and it was a BFN. Not even a glowing white line. AND I have cramps starting, so I'm throwing in the towel this month. If it were pregnancy causing cramps, that would mean I would have hcg in my system. On to cycle 7...

Have a good day everyone!

Hey girls oh my god what a nightmare I have I've totally broken down infront og my mums sobbing uncontrollably saying i cant go through this again I dont have my results back yet but the process of trying to get them has been all to much, my mum was great as always just hugged me and stroked my head. So the situation is no news on my results. They are back just cant seem to get them. Phoned the chem lab and the guy was an idiot he wouldnt give me the results said he couldnt give them to anyone that wasn't a medical professional then I had to phone a&e the nurse couldnt access the results either so suggested I call the out of hours dr so I did that explained the situation so she marked my call as urgent and put it through to someone so I nurse called me back who was most unhelpful but eventually said she would put it through to a dr and get the dr to call me back to let me know if he can help me so now waiting for a call back she couldnt say when as they were very busy at the moment. If the dr can't help me I either have to go to a&e tomorrow to see a dr to get the results or go and see my mum's dr on monday. What a nightmare and the whole process has made me feel very stressed so trying to stay calm and relax. Xx

The bleeding seems to have stopped have had some brown spotting but not much still get some cramping but again comes and goes really dont no what to think hanging on to hope the worst thing with the waiting is every moment I'm waiting the more hopefully I get the more attached I get. Praying for a chirstmas miracle. Steve and Dad managed to get to wembley arena not sure if they will get back but hope so. Mum and I are going to have a bite to eat and watch strictly at 7pm.

Hearty - Enjoy your dancing, love!

Allie - Just because you might have HCG in your system, it doesn't mean its had time to filter into your urine stream in a large enough quantity to produce a + HPT yet. You're only 11dpo! STOP TESTING! If no AF, you can test again on the 22nd when I go for my betas!

Luce - Sorry its been such a nightmare to get your results! They shouldn't make this any harder than it is. But a darker line surely means good results are coming!

PS Anyone who uses FF can they help please? When I started spotting into AF last week, it cut my cycle off really short. It classed spotting as AF by the looks of it, but proper flow didn't start till last Saturday (11th). Can I override this, as it looks like I'm on further on in my cycle than I actually am. I'm confused by it and it's messed my chart up!

YES! Go to My Chart > Cycles > Merge Two Cycles... and choose to merge last cycle with this this cycle. Then, do Cycles > Split A Cycle... and choose the start date of the 11th!

 

[Allie84]

Oh, Lucy, it sounds like a nightmare! What the heck...I wish someone would just tell you the darn number! I hope you gets the results asap. Someone has to be able to tell you, especially as they are there in a computer somewhere.

Thanks, Megg. I will try not to test, but will probably cave tomorrow as I still have a FRER sitting here. How are you feeling today?

 

[msarkozi]

Luce - what a stressful day it's been for you. I'm sorry that you are having such a hard time getting the results. I am glad that the bleeding has stopped. I think that is a good sign, especially with a darker line on the hpt! Hang in there sweetie!

 

[LucyJ]

Ok next instalement I've finally spoken to a dr who was very sweet and understanding he is going to phone a&e and try to get hold of an oncall dr who can access the results as the chem lab is now closed and the out of service dr dont have access to the computers system. So waiting on a call from the our of hours dr hopefully with my results but there is a chance he wont be able to get them so I will have to wait untill monday.

 

[jenny25]

fingers crossed lucy i hope you get them xxx

 

[LucyJ]

Ignore my last post dr has just called what a lovely man he was he managed to get my results and pauses for dramatic effect ......... my numbers are 97 so thats good news he said it was encouraging I need to do a temp register with my mum's surgery and see a dr to see if they want to moniter me while I'm at home maybe do more bloods I guess. The epu said they would moniter me with scans every 2 weeks from about 6/7 weeks when I'm pregnant again so going to call them next week to see if I can get booked in what do you think do I try and hold out till 7 weeks or do I get a scan at 6 weeks. Although I am so happy I am also so scared. Thanks for all your support love you all. xx

Save that FRER!!! I'm actually not so bad. I fell apart last night, but I've picked myself up today. My temp this morning made me very happy, so I'm going to be happy with that and not complain!

As I was just saying in my journal, today is likely the day that implantation would complete (for both of us)... So, expecting a BFP before now is just being hopeful that you have super embryos!

Wow! I missed that! LOL That's GREAT news! This is going to be interesting to tell the LO one day!

 

[jenny25]

thats great hun they are doubling

 

[msarkozi]

fantastic news Lucy!!! I'm so happy for you. I would start the scans at 6 weeks, as it will give you more peace of mind seeing sooner. But you have to keep in mind that it could be too early to detect the heartbeat, so as long as you go in with that knowledge, you aren't going to be stressed if they say they don't see it yet. When you go for the 8 week scan, then it will be there for sure Definitely get your bloods checked every few days or so to keep monitoring the number. Congrats hun!!! I hope this is your forever baby!!!! lots of

 

[heart tree]

Wow Lucy, that is wonderful news. They have definitely doubled! And technically speaking, you didn't even wait a full 48 hours between the blood draws, right? You got them on Thursday at 11 and on Saturday at 8. The bleeding surely could be implantation bleeding sweetie. Oh, I have everything crossed for you.

I agree with what Mel said. I probably would go in for a 6 week scan but know that the heartbeat might not be visible. When I went in for my last 2 scans at 6 weeks, it was very obvious that things weren't going well. In some ways I'm relieved I found out so early. It allowed me to move on with things. But that is NOT going to happen for you. Your scan will be perfect! I also agree with Mel to get as many bloods as possible. It's great that you have some good doctors on your team.

 

[heart tree]

Allie, listen to Megg and don't test tomorrow. You aren't out yet, but I totally understand why you would want to throw in the towel. It helps to mentally prepare. Have a great time today, sounds like fun.

I just had a long heart to heart with a dear friend of mine over the phone. She lives far away from me and we don't see each other often. She's 35 and not married. Doesn't even have a boyfriend. She wants kids. She feels so lonely and depressed. She and I both had a long pity party for ourselves over the phone. I'm not sure we accomplished anything, but it felt good to talk to her.

 

[prgirl_cesca]

Oh lucy darling I hope this is it xx

 

[Megg33k]

That's always good for the soul, Amanda!

 

[sugarlove]
