[Soanxious]

Aww hun im sorry its coming around to that time x my 1st mc baby was due June 17th x

 

[Oasis717]

sorry ladies I know only too well how hard those due dates are.I love xmas but knowing my last lo lost was due on xmas day im not sure I'll ever feel quite the same. Ive tried to push it to the back of my mind but its so sad. Crystal your temp normally starts dipping now so looking good but totally understand how you feel. xx
Tanya im so sorry its so painful. Emotionally and physically. xxx
afm ive not been feeling good today. nauseous and heavy in my pelvic area and a bit spaced out just like last month but neg on ics although they are rubbish. Wont buy a decent test until af is past. Ive had a terrible cold/flu for two weeks, caught off Brooklyn so im sure im just run down not pregnant! Temps just aren't high enough I don't think. Only thing is no spotting after bd which is normally a sign AF IS imminent. Due this sat acc to ff xxx

Tanya: I am so sorry that you are feeling so low today. I have so been there myself. My therapist even says that it is healthy to spend some time in that place....to lick our wounds. When I find myself in that place, I have to remind myself to keep my eye on the prize. I hope you find comfort in your upcoming appointments and I hope they are able to provide you with solutions for the future. If you can't bring yourself to be hopeful today, we will all be hopeful for you. XXXX

Starting bleeding late night got my scan 12 weeks today not got a good feeling oh and the cat jumped out of the bedroom window yesterday and broke her leg so shes in having surgery today so things couldn't really get any worse . Xxx

 

[Oasis717]

oh Tilly im so sorry I hope everything will be ok xxxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Tilly how awful for you , the worry of it . I hope the scan goes well and your mind put at ease . Your poor cat you really didn't have a good day xx

 

[Soanxious]

Thanks everyone... do you really have to wait the 6 weeks for the antibody and clotting test after a pregnancy? I dont really want to lose a month of ttc... can't it just show up if I go next week to get the bloods taken? its the clotting and antibody blood test. one woman had hers taken just a couple of weeks and tested positive and now pregnant on necessary medications.

Tilly!!! Did you ring the hospital? so it is today you have the scan? Im so hoping that all is safe and well... and baby is tucked up nice and snug... so sorry to hear about the cat.. can family take care of the cat whilst you rest up? x

Becks hopefully still chance to get bfp.. FX

I feel the same as mine was also due Christmas day... maybe I should not work out edd when getting pregnant

 

[Sparkle125]

Tanya: Yes, you really have to wait the 6 weeks after for the clotting tests. I had to do this too when I was diagnosed. It has something to do with the fact that those markers may be in everyone when they are pregnant, but would be out of the normal person by 6 weeks and if they are still showing up 6 weeks later, then there is a problem....or something like that. So sorry that you have to wait. I know that every month is precious. But, you may be given some information from the testing that will make the month after that worth waiting for! xxxx

 

[Soanxious]

Thank you... this is killing me..the waiting.. I've not even got to week 1 yet. I started to bleed on Friday but not heavy until Sunday.. so should I class friday or sunday as day 1? I know for AF reasons they say the Heavy day.. im just headshot at the moment

If it was positive..do they give you treatment to take after ov? as I seem to lose my babies soon after finding a bfp so if I did have this antiphospholipid syndrome then it would need to be taken sooner for me... as by time af is due mine normally start to weaken x

 

[crysshae]

I'm so sorry you're having this scare, Tilly. I pray everything is just fine.

 

[dancareoi]

What a relief, I have been thinking about you all day. It's awful waiting for a scan and not knowing what the outcome will be.

So glad your little rainbow is fine.

 

[Sparkle125]

Tilly: So happy to hear all is well!

Tanya: Yes, many people have successful pregnancies by taking medication well before their BFP so it is on board for implantation which is often the start of the issues. I start Lovenox injections, a blood thinner, on the first day that I take meds to build my lining. Actually, I started today! I also take baby aspirin every day...and will take that every day for the rest of my life.

 

[Oasis717]
