Sorry to have been so terribly slack about posting lately, have not been maintaining my zen well at all thanks Jen! I have been lurking though and checking everyones progress
I just wanted to say hi and welcome to the new ladies - MaternalBride, Zachary's Mom, erybery, Polly, HannahS86, mumstheword, TY - I hope I haven't missed anyone. I'm so sorry for your losses and that you all have to be here. Hoping your stay is short.
TM - I'm so sorry to hear that things didn't work out for you Take care OK?
Mel - I was so glad to read that your prog levels were good and it looks like you don't need Clomid, that is excellent news! Sounds like your FS has a good plan in place for you though, more BTs to check what is happening sounds good to me, along with the lap. Hopefully the BTs might be all you need to hit the jackpot and not have to decide on IVF. Good luck with it all! Glad to hear that how feel you have turned a corner this week though, you know all those feelings you have been having are totally normal, so don't feel like you are being unreasonable because you aren't!
smi - Congrats on the BFP!
HannahD - I'm so sorry for your family's lack of understanding. Been there done that too unfortunately and learnt the hard way who to share things with and who not to. All I would say is if someone is not helpful then it's best not to talk to them about anything KWIM? Saves you a lot of heartache
Indy - I'm so sorry for your loss Good to hear you are getting a referral to an FS though, hopefully they will come up with some answers for you.
Sorry for the lack of personals, but a big hi to everyone else - Jen, jenushka, plc, tutmae, WTH (special hugs my dear), babymiracles, Issy, Tam83, Mannie, fifi, KL and anyone else I have missed. Hope you are all well!
AFM - Well like I said above have not been coping well at all. We have had 2 scares already My HCG levels were slow to rise in the first week after the BFP and prog levels dropped as well, so that had us pretty worried. But a repeat HCG 3 days later showed levels had gone up by more than double, so the clinic and FS were all happy. So I decided to ditch the BTs because they were just too stressful.
Anyway the day before yesterday, I had some brown spotting and absolutely freaked. That was how we discovered our last m/c - a bit of brown spotting. So the clinic booked me in for a scan and BT yesterday while DH and I prepared ourselves for the worst on Tues night, it was an awful awful night. But thankfully than scan went well, our little one measured 6w6d which was spot on our dates and HCG and prog levels were excellent. We were so relieved! I have had a little bit more spotting though which is still stressing me out - I wish it would stop!
So that's basically it from me, has been a really awful couple of weeks, and I am 7 weeks today so only 5 to go before I hit the magical 12 week mark. I'm going to be certifiable by then I think! But the MS seems to have arrived today, not really bad just yet, but getting that pukey feeling quite often now. Can't say that I'm all that unhappy about it either! I must be nuts I have my first ob appt next Tues though, so hoping that all goes well, am keen to get another look at the little one and know that everything is OK.
