OMG! Lilesmom!! You knew, you knew! This is fantastic!!!


Massive congratulations to you hun you totally deserve this happiness xxxx

 

[lilesMom]

thanks guys im all excited fx it goes well this time
how r ye? xx

 

[Smiler82]

Aw I bet you are so excited. And understandable if nervous too, I know I will be next time. I have got everything crossed for you that the next 9 months go smoothly xxxx

Must admit I am a little disappointed today, my temp didn't rise It actually dropped a tiny bit. So no ovulation for me yet. I think we are going to have to wait til next cycle now, and I will have to double my dose. We are seeing my MIL this weekend, think I might have to ask her to do my cards this time!!

 

[lilesMom]

thanks babe , yeah mostly excited, bit nervy too though xx
fx for u chick, can the temps be off and u still Ov?
hope so xx Bd anyway just in case and cos u need some tlc xxx
big hugs, hope it works out soon xxx
and def get mil to do cards , u need good news xxx

 

[Smiler82]

So when are you going to tell your mum and sis?? I know they saw it already but will you tell them soon anyway, or wait a bit?

I guess if my temp goes up tomorrow then we might still be in with a chance. It is ok. I have been baking lemon cake today so things seem brighter I had a psychic reading done last August - she predicted twin girls and that I would fall pg Sept-Nov. I thought she meant last year, but this year I started clomid in Sept for 3 months!! So who knows, maybe upping the dose next cycle is what we need to do and we will end up with twins haha I'm taking it all with a pinch of salt but would be so weird if she turned out to be right.

Hope you have a relaxing weekend hun, enjoy the happy feelings and try not to focus too much on the nerves. Deep breaths

That truly is great news Lilesmom I'm pleased for you and it shows that PMA is working!!! We have been there through the bad so gotta be there through the good!!!! Excited for you!!

I think (think) I've ov'd and we bd so now it's all down to mother nature/fate. Tracking my temps and they're slowly going up but ff not confirmed ov but I know the signs so well now in fairly sure!! God who ever thought they'd get to know their bodies so well?? All those years we wasted with various contraception we could have just learn this and hey presto!

Anyway dh and I decided to bd but just the once on the day we thought so we like if we do get pg we do, if we don't there's nxt month! Weirdest thing is I added higher temps to ff in advance to see if it would confirm ov in fertility friend (it did) but expected due date was 13 June-the original date I went for my 12 week scan and got told I'd had mmc. Is that just me or would that be so weird???

Right Lilesmom keep up the PMA and I am crossing everything for you for the next 9 months!!!!! Wonderful! Smiler relax, enjoy the weekend (if you can) and some bd but not too much! Don't wear hubby out-the month we tried that even though we caught ov I think there was nearly nothing left and no pg ( and hubby has had sa and has more than enough swimmers)! Keep monitoring your signs -you could have ov'd but temps not confirmed yet! Keep temping!

Miss cat how you doing?? How is it all going? X x

 

[lilesMom]

the first time i got preg i only bd twice on the one day but it was the right day
so fx honey xxxx i think less pressure on u like that was a great decision xxx
big hugs and hope it works out well for u now xxxx
that would be a happy coincidence if ur baby was due that day, could be a good omen hon, fx xxxxxx

I had a bit of a scare a couple of weeks ago. I started bleeding and started not showing any of the symotoms I had had before. I feared the worst, and rang the emergency dept and they told me to come it. I answered all sorts of questions and I was terrified. Didn't have any PMA but viewed the situation as best I could.
I had a blood test and urine test and it was still positive but they wanted me to wait to see if the bleeding continued and booked a scan for a few days later. I had the scan and we saw a heart beat, I don't think I'd believed I was still pregnant until then, and realised how lucky I had been. It scared me terribly and I haven't had any bleeding since.
I've got my first midwife appointment on Monday, and they are going to keep a closer eye on me throughout my pregnancy. it's been a roller coaster ride to say the least!

 

[lilesMom]

oh miss cat, u poor thing , u must have been so freaked out, thank god baby was ok xxxxx big hugs babe, i knew u had gone very quiet but i thought u were just off enjoying being preg, xxxxxxxxxxxxx big hugs hon, thank god it turned out ok xxxxxxxxxxxxx
how far along r u now sweetie xxx

 

[Smiler82]

Miss Cat I know how scary that is....really hope everything turns out fine for you. Good luck for your appt today, let us know how it goes

 

[Miss cat]

Thanks guys it's been reallt tough but we've got through it. Long way to go yet. Had my midwife appointment today, it went well, got asked so many questions. I wish I could relax and enjoy the pregnancy but I'm so anxious. How as my PMA taken such a beating?

How are you all doing?

 

[lilesMom]

il keep my fingers crossed for u chick xxx big hugs xxx

i went to my doc today to get bloods done and i wanted to ask few qs, she was really unhelpfull, she kind of gave out to me for not waiting till after the liver consultant but all the tests had come back alright so all the serious things had been ruled out, so we went ahead. she then said my mc might have been caused by my copper levels and could happen again, cos they r up, i then said but i was told they were only slightly up and she goes well i dont know anything about copper (it was the other doc in the place tested it for me) , i wouldnt have thought to test u for it anyway.
i came home and googled it, its low copper can cause mc, she had me so freaked for no real reason, i think she was pissed cos i didnt ask her advice before goin ahead.
i know i should prob have waited another month but i figured serious things were ruled out so i be fine, i wont be in a hurry back to her, think il go to the guy doc from now on.

 

[Miss cat]

Lilesmom, it doesn't sound like she knows what she's talking about. You're probably best going to the other doctor who did the copper test to get accurate diagnosis next time. Hope you're ok after all that!

 

[lilesMom]

thanks babe, yeah i think she is just a bad doc, last time i had the loss, i had spotting she tested my hcg and was meant do a second test, she said results were so high she wouldnt do second test cos all seemed ok, ( she also admitted she googled to see if my levels were ok or not ) , turns out it wasnt but i didnt find out till later cos she hadnt done the second one.

how r u hon xx

 

[lilesMom]

hi guys, i went for gynae scan today and good news, no big fibroids in babys way
yey hurray big relief xxx
how ye all xx

 

[Smiler82]

Yay that is great news lilesmom I think you are right to stick to seeing that other doctor if you're not happy with the one you saw the other day.

So how far along are you, like 5 weeks or something? Could you see anything or is it too early?

I am pretty disappointed this cycle, the clomid didn't work CD27 and still no ovulation. It's difficult not to get down about it, has been hard to stay positive this week. I can't stop thinking that it isn't going to happen for us. Before I was really positive and was hopeful but now our first cycle hasn't worked I'm pretty bummed!! I know it's only the first go and shouldn't get too disappointed but it's hard not to.

Sorry to moan!!

 

[Miss cat]

hi guys, i went for gynae scan today and good news, no big fibroids in babys way
yey hurray big relief xxx
how ye all xx

That's really good news, bet you must be relieved to hear.
I'm fine, just still a bit causious, got my letter to go to my 12 week scan on 17th oct, I can't wait cos if all goes well I can tell people. Thank goodness for these forums!

 

[lilesMom]

smiler ur not moaning but all moaning and whinging accepted if u want to xxxxx
this is our venty place
feck, i was hoping would work for u this time, but like u said maybe the prediction is right , maybe the extra dose next month will work for u honey, fx xxxx
u get ur cards read? xx

i know miss cat on both counts, i did tell a few but cant wait to tell all
im also very hopefull and happy but not trying to get my hopes up way too high, in case something happens, xxx fx it goes well for us this time xxxxxxx

couldnt see anything i wont be 5 weeks till sunday so way too early, i think il look into paying for private scan at maybe 8 weeks cos i dont know if i can wait till 12 weeks with no more reassurance
i went to my liver consultant today, went well, she said she reckons its a little bit fatty liver and too much antibiotics, the lfts have come down a little again, thats 3rd time they come down so they r dropping which is great she also said it would have no affect on my baby which is even better , i thought i was right but stupid ass doc had me confused and worried, i thouhgt she would know more than me, maybe not!!!!
she took one more blood test but she is only checking just in case, she said its very rare and she doesnt think i have it but just in case she is checking
so all good so far, please god it keeps goin this way
