Waiting for ov after mc. 8BFPs so far!! *"the list" page 291*

Annie - I really hope that nausea is an excellent sign.

Munchkin - when are you testing, Ms 9 DPO? I wish I were able to get pregnant and stay pregnant so easily as well. I never really assumed I could because I've always worried I was infertile. Now I'm wondering if perhaps that's kind of true.

GRGirl - yeah, I think the m/c is making me so negative and hardened towards life as well.

Indeed i guess ive lroved i can get oregnant..but can i stat pregnant? Im going to blurt this out here bcos tbh the first tri just wont get it today i dont know if i overdid it or what but i was sweating after cycling the 20-odd mins to fetch my son, exhausted and a little crampy im so scared. Dh is working from home so hes let me lie down alot since but i keep thinking if its cramps its already over...i know i need to snap out of being so negative, i just feel so scared today. I love my kids but the kast two days the f-ing fours (really thats what they are called) have been doing my nut in, last night i dragged my four year old kicking at me up two flights of stairs...urgh i wont get into that here.

If only i was as confident as my first two pregnancies.

 

[Literati_Love]

Celine - I know, I feel the same. There really is zero proof for me that my body is able to keep a pregnancy. Plus, some people experience secondary infertility, so to be honest I'm worried about that as well since we're taking so long (ya I know some people take a whole year yadda yadda but it feels like forever when you're in it).

That is scary that you're feeling crampy and worried after your bike ride but I don't think you should throw in the towel just yet! A bit of crampiness probably just means your uterus is stretching to make room for the baby!! Try to relax and take it easy despite your crazy kids. It's going to be okay! have you talked to your midwife about your concerns? So sorry you're feeling so down and scared!

GRGirl - It's so much easier to err on the side of pessimism in this situation, both before and after the 2 lines appear. Although, I find I need to be careful - or I can easily fall into just being upset a lot, which is not a good form of defense

At the mo I think i'm trying defensive denial, trying to pretend none of it's really happening and watching a lot of comedy shows.

With all that said, I comfort myself with statistics. I do it a LOT actually, I have a little book I write in which has all the relevant ones in it. I can tell you GrGirl, according to my book your are 80%+ likely to be pregnant within the year. X

 

[Linnypops]

Celine - Overheating, strenuous exercise etc, those are good reasons for mild cramping unrelated to something going wrong. Hot water bottle on the back might help to ease them, and I read lots of water/hydration.

The main thing is the feeling that it's all gone wrong, I know it's really bloody hard but try to remember that because it went wrong before all your feelings are tied into that, and it's no reflection of what's actually happening right now. Sending lots of hugs your way XX

 

[garfie]

Celine - Aw hun that's what makes it great to be part of this thread - we all get it and get how you are feeling BIG

A bit off topic has your 4 year old got a reward chart? - if so can you not say you will get a sticker if you can show mum what a big boy/girl you can be and walk up the stairs nicely - I alsways found the carrot approach works better than the stick and the more they see you stress the more they play on it

I agree with the others it's probably just stretching pains - but also try and rest when you can and please make sure you drink plenty

Linny - Another statistic to add to your book - even after 5 m/c the specialist has said I have a 75% chance of making it to the labour ward next time - so I said I will take those odds

Munchkin - Are you testing soon

Annie - What were the lines like - OPKs can detect pregnancy etc etc

Gr - Could that not be a second estrogen surge hun - this can sometimes happen I think it is called a fallback rise

AFM - Is there no one out there with wacky cycles wanting to be my cycle buddy - I promise I bring luck (look at Celine ) hoping I have Od otherwise if not I'm not holding out much hope as the seduction techniques didn't last long

[GRGirl]

Ah Garfie! You're a genius- I forgot about the fallback rise! So of course I went and looked at pg charts on FF just to see how many of them had that

 

[celine]

@garfie - what? I thought ur seduction tecnique was awesome, even i wanted to take my knickers off!
Tx for your words of encouragement, i think i will be alright im just shamefully feeling sorry for myself which is aweful as i know most of you would kill to be in my shoes. But then i know once in these shoes we will all have these fears. I think im at the 6 week mark and im ultrasensative to anything i feel because this is usually the end, well the begnnng of the end.

 

[garfie]

the last time was Sunday/Monday which will be okayish if I have already Od if not onto next month - hoping it happened latest Wednesday

Of course what you are going through is fully understandable hun - coming up 6 weeks go mama - any good symptoms yet?

I never really had any symptoms so if I'm lucky again - bring em on

Gr - Not sure you can really tell this early on a few more days and then you will be able to (maybe) so do you have a chart I can stalk

[GRGirl]

Celine- I'm so excited for you! You give me hope so I love seeing you still here

Garfie: The link to my chart's below; not too much excitement yet. Sore nipples, tons of creamy cm, and feeling pretty crampy, oddly enough.

My chart of awesomeness

 

[penguin1]

hey gals!
Celine I have high hopes that it was just exertion and everything is ok.
AFM- still not a normal af. thick red and brown cm. going in for a baseline u/s tomorrow. then my usual femara and ovidrel and a try at iui.

 

[Munchkin30]

Oh celine it's all really normal. The amount of times I was convinced I was mc with dd and early on in my last pregnancy because of cramps and wetness. I remember sitting at work KNOWING it was all over so many times. And that was before I'd had a loss. And when I really lost my baby I felt nothing at all, no cramps no nothing.
You would be wierd if you WEREN'T convinced you were mc every five minutes after what you've been through the last few months . Seriously. Hang in there honey but take it easy . When I get my bfp I will be sitting on my a**e with my feet up at least. 90% of the time. OH won't know what hit him
For you ladies that asked I'm testing for the great time tomorrow 10dpo. I'm not expecting anything and won't be bothered coz I've never had a bfp that early. And it means I can have a tot of wine with my friend later.

 

[celine]

Yeay for wine! Secretly i know somebody has to get the next bfp round here xxx
love u ladies so much if i see that heartbeat in three weeks ill deffo make us a thread on the PAL forum

 

[Munchkin30]

Well yes one of us has to be next not feeling it here but that's probably the defensive pessimism talking!
When we all have our bfps we 'll be like the coolest kids in the school over in PAL. Everyone will want to be in our gang and we will kick ass over there!!

Seriously, I already know I'm a cool kid So then everyone will want to be a part of our crew and hang out with us in PAL lol

Celine- I have a good feeling for you, and I'm thinking it's going to be ok. I know it will! We're all cheering you on!

Penguin- I hope everything goes ok when you go in and you can gear up for an iui.

AFM- so this is gross, but hey, we share all kinds of stuff here, right?! So I go to the bathroom because I couldn't figure out what was wrong- my underwear (knickers for our UK friends ) was STICKING to me, because I had so much creamy CM. Ugh! It actually grossed me out a bit- I mean TONS. I took an OPK just to see what was up (I know, I KNOW, I have a problem with peeing on things) and it was negative, but a pretty dark negative. Hmm... have no idea what any of that means. Probably nothing. Just thought it was weird.

 

[Sofaqueen77]

Hey lovely ladies, I'm been Mia for the last few days... I'm still of the mindset that I can't allow myself to get excited yet... I did get a '3+ weeks' on a Digi today, I never got that for he last time!

I'm counting down the days, hours, minutes until my six week scan, 29/11/13 @ 8am!

Please Count me in for the PAL group too

Xxxx

 

[Anniebobs]

Celine you probably just overdid it, I have a really good feeling about your pregnancy. It's probably just baby settling in for the next few months.

I am testing in the morning, screw willpower! This is my last go until February I may as well spend my time peeing on sticks! Because I've been so ill DH thinks I'm pg too, so he doesn't mind me testing. I am praying this is not just extreme pms!

 

[Literati_Love]

Sofa - how could it only be a 6 week scan at the end of the month? Wouldn't you be around 8 weeks by then?

Penguin- am I understanding correctly that you are trying IUI this month? I really hope it works for you! Yay!

Munchkin - sometimes when you feel the most convinced you're out, you get your BFP. but I will officially feel left behind when you get your BFP as we were among the very first few on this thread. But I still hope you get it this month anyway!! Good luck!

GR - that is bizarre about so much CM. I hope it means you are knocked up! .

 

[Literati_Love]

Annie - you and I always reply at the same time. Yay! I am so happy you are testing tomorrow! Maybe you and munchkin will get your positives on the same day!!
