Third Time Lucky - Fingers Crossed!!!

[garfie]

Morning Ladies

Sorry I've not been on in a while - had a few probs both with hubby and kids.

Hubby went out Friday to a party and didn't come back until 11.00 am on Saturday and then promptly spent the rest of the day in bed!

Sunday we went to his mums had lunch one of the boys was at a party and before I knew it was bedtime

Monday was my Avon day - so I spent all day delivering my brochures on one round still got my round to do around the village but that will be later in the week phhheeeeew!

CD9 - Monitor on HIGH - Nothing to report

Elaine - Hope you are enjoying your time away - a break helps the tww to pass quicker - what DPO are you now? - when are you testing

Mannymoo - So sorry you have been sick over the weekend - but surely that's a good sign that everything is progressing nicely - when do you go for another scan?

Khloee - congrats for reaching the 8w mark

Lou - you didn't recommend the two we have then a collie and a springer spaniel (they are both getting on now though) although the spaniel still behaves like a puppy if we are playing in the garden - also they are getting a bit smelly but we still love them

SATH - and welcome - sorry to hear about your losses have you tried grapefruit juice the time I got my BFP recently I was drinking gfj from when the witch left until O time around here everyone has sold out so I have missed this month

Horsey - Long time no speak - hope you are okay hun and so pleased to hear you are having some tests done - when are they doing them?

Love to all you other ladies - hope all you preggo ones are taking it easy

Hi All!

Sorry I've been quite, either been too busy or just not felt like replying, feeling blurghhhhhh at the moment, not that I am complaining, I am happy to feel like it!

Garfie - yea for high on your monitor, enjoy yourself ;-)

Elaine - you asked about symptoms, looking back at my chart and my comments, I was having disturbed sleep, lots of twinges/a tight feeling down there and ear ache. I got a 1-2 weeks on a digi at 12DPO.

Manny - I know what you mean, after a rough Sunday, yesterday I felt ok, I had no aversions to food and then this morning I noticed my (.)(.)s weren't hurting and I started to worry.......that was until I got to work an hour ago and now feel sicky so hoping everything is ok. It seems symptoms come and go, I just wish I could have a scan everyday to reassure me!

Hugs and fingers crossed to everyone

P.S. All this dog talk makes me want one, I want a cocker spaniel but DH is resisting!

Hi girls, good to hear everyone is plodding on in their own path happily (though maybe sickly lol) .

I am now 8DPO and trying hard not to think about it as time going pretty slow this week. Have had terrible headaches and been awful tired but these are normal pre AF signs for me so not reading too much into anything. Will test in a couple of days but not entirely convinced this month for some reason! If I'm not I am not too bothered as got a couple of nights out over next two weeks and one is with my mum so if I was PG it would be very difficult to hide me not drinking lol. Also we are going on holiday on Saturday and I really want to enjoy it. So got the mind set that if I am PG BRILLIANT and if I'm not well we can try next month and I can enjoy my nights out that are planned!

This time last month on 8DPO I had some spotting which was sign of AF and have had none of that so far so suppose that is good!

Will keep you all updated! xx

 

[SATH]

Hi how are you doing?

I haven't tried the grapefruit juice, I will have to try to find some anything is worth a shot, I feel like a rattle already. Hoping I'm going to ovulate soon, cd 15 but pre m/c I always ovulated on cd 20 like clockwork of a 30 day cycle, now who knows but the signs are there that is approaching. I'm feeling more positive since I found you all so thank you for your support

 

[thethomsons]

Hey girls , How is everyone?

Well I am officially 10DPO tomorrow and am finally getting somewhere! This 2WW has been soo slow lol. I have had a niggling sore lower back all day today and kinda trying to ignore as had that with second PG so was def a sign. Def trying not to read too much into it though. Won't be long now before I will have my answer anyway! Not sure if should try testing tomorrow or whether I am better to wait. Don't want to be disappointed!

My birthday is Monday and thinking if do get BFP it would be nice to have it around then! Fingers crossed xx

How is everyone, it has been VERY quiet in here xxx

xxxx

 

[mannymoo]

Oooo Elaine! Test! Test!!!! Sounds very good to me. I think we're due another BFP now

 

[Laubull]

Ooooooo Elaine I am with Manny, test, test, test! Ok maybe 10DPO might be a bit early but if AF doesnt arrive over the weekend then I hope your birthday brings you a lovely BFP

Manny how are you feeling now? Have you booked in at the doctors/midwives yet?

Elaine -

Good luck hun

[mannymoo]

Its so tempting to wait for Monday but also impossible... unless you're a very strong willed person! But good luck for when you do test.

Laubull - all fine here. One day I'm feeling on top of the world and then next day I'm flat on my back not able to eat or drink anything. Last night was bad but now I'm ok again this morning. It seems to start at about 4pm and lasts until I go to bed so I'm just trying to eat what I can earlier in the day. My next scan is on Tuesday. How about you? How are you doing? Are you going for another early scan? xx

 

[SATH]

Keeping my fingers crossed. I reckon wait till Monday what a fantastic birthday present that would be.

I'm gearing up for ovulation trying to be bd but really bad timing as OH is working away this week and next, typical. My accupuncturist doesn't want us to try this month she is trying to get my ovulation forward and increase luteal phase. See specialist next Friday, going to have to go alone not sure what to expect. Want some shiny magic pill that makes everything alright.

 

[thethomsons]

Girls I can't believe this but I just got a very faint BFP!! Have a look and tell me what you think!!! I'm not getting too excited incase it disappears as I am still 4 days early so not even due AF till Monday! The niggling back pain is worse today and it was what made me decide to test as had it before when PG!!

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!

Such a mix of emotions, terrified, excited, happy, worried!

Ended up telling DH as couldn't keep something as huge as this to myself. He can't believe it either though is happy. Says we should try to forget about it as much as can so not getting our hopes up. I know what he means. Anyway I will let it sink in and post back later letting you know where I am at.

Still taking the Baby Aspirin once a day should I continue with that??

Def not going anywhere near a scan till at least 8 weeks and last twice all ended at 6 weeks so anything passed that will be a bonus.


OMG girls I can't believe it. I really really cant. Maybe I am seeing things lol

[Laubull]

OMG Elaine! I can see it too, there is a definite line there, AMAZING! Sooo happy for you

Are you going to test again with an FRER or digital tomorrow? I have everything crossed for you that this is it!

Re: mini aspirin, I took it until I got my BFP as I wasn't prescribed it so thought it was best to stop.

Sath, I hope ovulation holds out for DH to come back Re: lengthing your lethal phase have you tried vit B6, I've not tried it but lots of people say it works.

Manny, I am sorry you're feeling blurgh, I do understand though, sometimes I am ok, other times Sadly I don't get another scan, I wish I did, the worry is driving me crazy! I hope your scan goes well.

[mannymoo]

Elaine!! Thats AMAZING news. Congrats! I hear you about it being a complete mix of emotions. But just stay strong and positive and I'm sure it will all be fine. So excited for you and I am sure that in no time at all we're going to have an entire thread of pregnant ladies. So exciting!!!! Keep us posted on any further tests...

RE the aspirin, my gynae told me again when I was there last week that I MUST stay on the aspirin until 36 - 37 weeks. He explained that it thins your blood ever so slightly to stop any clotting from blocking the placenta - which can be cause of recurrent miscarriage. I definitely suggest asking your doctor.

Lauball - sorry you don't have another scan lined up. Are you planning on getting a doppler? I would love one but also so scared at the additional anxiety that it could cause! Going to ask the doc about them next week but I have no doubt he will advise agains it.

Sath - It is so hard to plan BDing with an OH that is away on business a lot. Just try DTD whenever you can. Have you read any of Khloeee's posts on this thread? She also had a very short leutal phase (sp?) and now she is happily pregnant. Fingers crossed the same thing happens for you this cycle.

 

[mannymoo]

Just for a giggle... not sure if I already posted this here or not... but don't be shy to retest. This is a pic of all my tests for this pregnancy. A little on the crazy side - I know!!!

 

[garfie]

Elaine - congrats hun now try and relax

[SATH]

[thethomsons]

Thanks girls. I just did a FRER and this is what I got!! Now totally freaking out lol. Going out with my work tonight and prob best thing for me as will have to think about something else. So praying this one sticks!

Can't believe I got a BFP!

Going to be a very happy birthday (secretly lol)
