    Hi Ladies ! Hope you are all well xoxo

    Ferrals !
    Enjoy your time in your new threads - thanks for your support !

    Tanya ! how are you going ?

    xoxo

    AFM - i have my next scan at 1.00pm then follow up appt at 1.20pm so i dont know what time i will get home. Gee - i hope they find a tiny bubby starting to grow !
    Just a thought - i think they are going to offer me a TransVaginal scan but i am VERY hesitant cause of the bleeding/spotting i have had. I dont want to set it off again IYKWIM.
    Eeeeeeeeeekkkkk - think i will decline. Not that they can see much with a normal scan though........

    BBL

    Hi,

    Had my scan - the sac has definitely grown ! At 5 weeks it is too early to see if anything is growing in the sac yet. The main idea of todays scan was to check that the pregnancy is in my uterus - which it is ! They were happy with the growth and my HCG levels from Monday. Had a normal scan.
    I have another scan on 7th September to check the viability- so lets hope we see something growing - even a heartbeat !

    This has given me hope

    xoxo

    Coco - hows things going? where are you up to and how have you been?

    AFM- just crusing along, having a tough day today everything workwise is frustrating and i just feel like i'm not getting in top of anything!! Anyway, i'll be right, hope everyone else is going well.

    Hi Ladies,
    It's been a couple of months since I've posted in here but I've been hovering in the background.
    Before all of you end up with those beautiful BFPs that I've seen so many of lately, I wanted to pop in and give a quick update on my own situation as I promised I would.

    First, congratulations to everyone who is ready to move out into one of the pregnancy forums, I've been so pleased to see so much happiness in here lately.

    My heart goes out to the losses that have been experienced too, it's such a tragedy to see such wonderful women losing precious babies.

    AFM I've had my due date revised by 9 days! I'm trying to work out how that can be considering I was charting and know when I ovulated and when we DTD!! It just doesn't compute! So now, instead of being 16 weeks, I'm only 14 1/2 weeks. We've had two ultrasounds and everything is looking perfect. This is my first time to see 3D ultrasound pics (hubby's first time for ultrasound at all!) and it's been so exciting. Everyone tried to tell us that it's a boy but at 11 weeks, too soon to tell and we're pretty sure it was the umbillical chord anyway! In another 5 weeks, we'll find out and are lucky enough to be able to take my two daughters in with us for the scan, they'll be so excited to see the baby and find out what we're having.
    Morning sickness has been pretty horrendous (oddly very little actual up chuck, just constant nausea) and, of course, every little cramp has been sending me into a mild (no, lets face it, extreme) panic. Thankfully the panic is beginning to recede now that I'm past my own 'scare' time from the last two pregnancies ending in miscarriage.

    I have kind of stopped posting in the forums because no-one from anywhere I was posting has ended up in the Belly Buddy group that I fit into. It felt quite lonely not knowing anyone so I have just been hovering in here checking up on everyone as this is where I felt 'at home'.

    To Anila, Ferrals, Sunbeam, Cherished and Coco in particular, I wish you all the best in your journeys and hope to see all of you joyfully celebrating very soon. The journey has been long and painful for all of you and you deserve to be rewarded with your own little baby. Ferrals, goodluck wth the IVF when it starts, I hope it works for you first try!

    To everyone else in here, all the best and I'm glad you're all finding support and love in this forum as I found it my source of strength and sanity while I was here.

    Smallfry it is great to see that everything is going along smoothly. It must be a huge relief to get past that dreaded date of last mc's. That is extremely exciting that your daughters are going with you to the scan, i bet they cant wait to find out if they're getting a baby brother or sister. Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy and make sure to keep us updated, it gives us all hope
    Ferals sorry to see you go hunny, thank you so much for all your help, advice & support. Make sure you pop back in and let us know when you get your BFP and fingers crossed that it happens in your first cycle
    Sparkles hope tomoro is a better day for you, i know what its like i had a horrible day at work today, everything that could go wrong did. No fun at all
    Chickybabe that is great news that the scan went well, good luck on the 7th of sep and i know you will see a heartbeat - nice & strong
    to everyone else, goodluck to all those testing and try not to stress to those in the tww
    AFM trying extremely hard not too think about testing or any symptons that could or could not be preggy signs, its doing my head in but hopefully its worth it in a couple of days

    Hi ladies,

    LOTS of posts to catch up on, so I won't do too many persies.

    Congrats to Superstarmumsy and to TinaR!
    Tina - as soon as I saw your post about the coloured CM I KNEW, as that is the sort of implantation bleeding I have had with my pg's.

    Kyra - I hope you get some luck with your Dr ? Drs can be so frustrating at times Grrrr!!

    Ferrals - thanks for your support and good luck with the IVF, though we all KNOW that your going to get the BFP after the first cycle!! We'll all see you very soon over on the pg boards I am sure.

    Yay Chickybabe - you must be so relieved - I know I am for you!!

    Hello to the new ladies!!!

    Hi everyone, can I join you guys? I am currently waiting for AF to return so DH and I can start trying again. My M/C was only about 4 weeks ago but I want to start TTC right away. My HCG level dropped to normal really quickly so I thought my cylce might return to normal quickly as well. I even thought I may have ovulated about 2 weeks ago (right on schedule) but DH wanted to wait for at least one period before TTC. If all had returned to normal I should have got AF yesterday but no such luck and already I'm getting impatient waiting for it. I was hoping talking to others in the same boat as me would help.

    well ive had the most stressfull 12 hours..

    Started bleeding heavy yesterday and just couldnt keep positive at all on the ride up to the hospital

    They did a blood test and a few hours later called me in to tell me my hormone levels the other day at 4 and a half weeks were 711hcg, and yesterday they were 2780hcg.. so that sounded gud but he made sure to reaussure me that it doesnt mean i havnt misscarried at all. sigh

    then i sat in the waiting room for 10 hours with that thought in my head b4 anyone saw us..

    So the gyno saw me fineally.. the news isnt as bad as i thought but it certainly isnt the best.

    So far she cant see a yolk sack on the scan, but she said it is really too early to see one anyway, but my cervix is closed, and there aparently was only a tiny amount of blood (unlike last november when they coulnt see anything from all the blood)

    She doesnt think im misscarrying, but didnt garuntee it.. she said its most likely just the cervix lineing shedding where the egg has burrowed in .. but im going back on monday because she said theres still a chance that im going to misscarry in the next few days :'(

    I dont know.. i feel like its different to last time and theres alot more hope.. but oh my god i cannot deal with this stress right now,, the last thing i wasnted to happen happened yesterday when i saw that blood i broke down right then and there in the public toilets at the mall..

    I completely sympathize with you. I had a similar thing happen to me with my first child. The first doctor I saw was a complete hosebag and without even looking at me told me I was having a miscarriage and scheduled me for an U/S a week later. She then told me to go on stict bed rest until then "just in case'. I cried for the whole week and the wait was just awful, but luckily the baby was fine. 3 weeks later I had another bleed. I went to emergency sobbing all the way. The doctor there was very reassuring. My cervix was closed as well and there was very little blood. He sent me for an U/S the next day and thankfully all was fine. I even had a third bleed a few weeks later. It was extremely stressful but thankfully it was just the lining shedding a bit. Easier said than done I know, but take it easy and try not to stress out too much. I have all my fingers crosssed that your little one will be just fine too.
