hi girls,
Just poping in to write something to my bestest SIL in the world Naomi, awww you poor luvie you sound like you are on a bit of a rollercoaster atm and it is so very confusing indeed and it is very hard to try and stay posative but I must say I am glad that a dr is standing up and taking some notice in regards to this and finally getting you checked out properly, you know how I feel about our normal dr and how much I like him but when it comes to internals and that he really doesn't like to do them I think its cause he has been a part of our lives for so so long and feels a little awkward so you have done the right thing by finding someone else for htat sort of thing,
and yes internal u/s is not so nice but its not the worst thing ever and is over pretty quickly and I really think you need to tell Rick he is usually pretty supportive and I htink someone needs to be there with you as it is much nicer to be able to look at your mans face rather than concentrate on what is going on 'down there' it makes it a little more pleasant and a tiny bit easier to cope with, unfortunately these things are never going to be nice, But usually you will get a very nice female sonographer who will be very discreet and will not take your dignity away,
I supose I wanted to let you know that i am here for you if you need a chat or if you need me to be with you ( although hard with the kids ) and that it is over before you know it, try not to feel to nervous about it ( hard I know ) ask the sonographer heaps of questions they will usually answer them and they knkow what they are looking at they usually give you a bit of a run down on things at the end too so that you know what is going on.
I hope that helps a little and remember to call me if you need me I am not far away and really would hate for you to do this all alone please tell Ricki atleast he might be able to get the time off to come with you and give you a big hug this is not your fault sometimes our bodies have different ideas of what we want them to do but you will get there as one of the other girls said you are young and healthy time is on your side sweetie please remember that.
Love you always Amy

aaww Amy - you have me in tears, i was tempted to ring you but i thought you've had enough on your plate with the new business and stuff. I didnt want to trouble you.
Thankyou for your kind words, you dont know what they mean to me, what you mean to me, thankyou Amy so much.
I was planning on telling Rick tonight, but that was because i knew whether i was pg or not, now it just makes it harder, i know he is very supportive but i dont want him worrying, i know he cant take time off work and if i tell him now he will want to and we cant afford it either. I was thinking about waiting til after the u/s before telling him anything, but then i thought, if that was me i would be pretty angry if he was going through something like this and didnt tell me. So i guess, yes i will tell him tonight, i dont even know what to say to him though, i might be pg i might not, im having a u/s to cehck me out Dr thinks i may have something wrong with me?? i mean.....
CHill Naomi chill
Thankyou Amy, i know where you are and that you are there for me thankyou
You are a great SIL to me to!
Im still crying!

:hug: awww Naomi you are way too sweet, I think you just answered your own question in regards to telling Rick I was jsut thinking it as I read it in your post imagine if it were the other way around you would be so cross with him for not telling you and I am sure he would feel the same way, it is not your fault that you have been so confused over the past few months with getting false + and all of that there has to be a reason and hopefully by having an u/s you will find out and get it all sorted, I know you dont want Rick to be worried but you need him right now and thats just that thats what he is there for, he knows how much you havebeen through these past past few months and that you have done nothing wrong it is the best thing for you both to get on top of this all now and not in 5 years time the sooner the better.
and yes I have been busy but not to busy for you so please dont think you are ever burdening me cause you are not my goodness girl you sat on the phone with me for endless ours helping me through the tough times after my miscarriages its the least I can do for you :hugs:

Hi All,
Naomi, Grrr at your Doc.....This is just not fair leaving you waiting not knowing what the hell is going on. Im really glad that you are going to tell your partner, i couldnt have got through anything without Rowan. Hang in there mate, the internal cam is not pleasant but at that stage you will just be wanting the answer now IYKWIM.
Lisa, Please please please dont let that be AF.....I had great hopes for you and Michelle this month. As Naomi said its not over until its red flow blood. My thoughts are with you with your babies EDD coming up this month also. Thats a hard day (and also the lead up to it) so i am here if you want to talk.
Michelle, I know what you mean about not wanting our babies to be forgotten. This is one thing that i have really struggled with with Rowan's family. I know that they havent forgotten her but unfortunately i dont think that they view Katelyn as their grandchild...they view her more as something that happened to me (not even to their son i am sure) gee its hard to explain but they never mention her (although Rowan's sister usually rings me around her birth date to see how i am) partly i think this is due to the fact that they dont know what to say...its very hurtful though. As for the Clexane injections, dont worry about them at all it will be a piece of cake, i had a huge phobia of needles (after horrific bt's as a child) and i managed to do it until 38 weeks. I never had much bruising, the trick is needle in quick, clexane in slooooow. Im sure you already know that as a nurse but when you do it you can feel if you are going too fast. I just used to think "this is the best for my baby" and repeated that as a mantra lol. I think this time around it might be harder though as i have lost 11kg's since Lucy's birth and i think i would want the extra padding with the needles lol. How are you feeling about testing tomorrow? GL i have my fingers crossed for you!!!
Shellstar, YAY on the EWCM bring on the bedding!
Tanya, good luck catching that egg tomorrow!
Gee you guys, talking in here makes me really really want to TTC again NOW lol, this waiting sux its kind of like a mega 2ww especially since i know that i will be oing in the next few days and just have to let it go by lol. Am also worried about the age gap with Lucy (something i probably shouldnt even be thinking about) but i wonder too quick to late lol at myself, i am such a worrier lol maybe i am just warming up for the worrying of TTC and PAML!!!
Hugs to all
Love Sarah xx

OMG you girls can talk....i soooo can't keep up at them moment. I was on here yesterday, about to post, but got called away, then i jump on here this arvo and i have to read back 3.5 pages from not even 24 hours....criky.
Well i havent' got time to do personals at the moments (coz there would be a hundred of them i think), so i'll leave it here and just say thank you to everyone who has been asking about me, good luck to those who are ovulating, and a big fingers crossed to you girls who are testing on Thursday.
A big kisses and cuddles to all of you.

Jayne, Oh Jayne......Any answers yet?

Helllooooo My Lovely Chickens,
FINALLY ! I have seen the OB. I was quite jealous that all the focus was on Jessica and not on ME! LOL. Just kidding. I have been to the vampires and had no less than 6 tubes taken! :eek: and I'm having another BT on Friday to ensure that 'we have a viable pregnancy on board' as my OB said.
He was major apologetic after yesterday. Apparently his lady was 31 weeks, waters broken, no way to stop labour and bub was breech. He said it was very hair-raising but all is going very well today. Phew!
I am to call the OB on Friday so he can run the hcg figures through but he said he's willing to put money on it being ok and he's given me the forms to go and have an u/s!!!! Yay!! He told me to wait until I'm 6.5w but I'm more inclined to wait until closer to 7. I told him I would freak if I went too early and nothing could be seen. He totally understood. I was so chuffed I wanted to kiss him! :p
I have a mountain of personals to catch up on, which I will do tonight after dinner @ the inlaws. I'm really not sure how long I can avoid it being noticed that I don't eat the shop-bought chickens! LOL. She is a wonderful cook but works til 5pm so she brings home roast chickens and makes us roast vegies. YUMMY!
You girls really are my rock atm because only 3 of my gf's know about this little Bundle. It's getting easier keeping it from my family, but I know they're going to be so mad when we finally do tell them. Alan would skin me alive if I told them. :(
Love Jayne xoxoxo
-
When do you get today's BT results ?
I hope we haven't got to wait till Friday for them ;)
Congratulatiuons again Jayne.
-
just a quick post
I told Rick just before, it sounded like is was routine with the way i said it lol, he did get a big angry why i hadnt told him before now, and i said i just couldnt, he looked and he and grabbed my hand, and told its ok. But thats it, i dont think he really understands, and am finding it hard to talk to him now about it cos his mum is home, but later tonight i know he will bring it up.
In my opk=hpt?? post, flowerchild said in there that if my levels are 5 and below its normal, if its 5-15 its iffish and dr still wont say im pg. So im thinking my levels are between 0 and 15, so either, im not pg, im just pg, or i had a 'chemical' pg. and the ultrasound combined with finding out my levels are going to be the only thing thats going to give me answers. **** this is so hard, why cant it ever be simple?
Amy - thankyou, and i will be here (as will we all) when you decide to TTC again. Which is soon isnt it? Thankyou for your post, it gave me the strength to let Rick know. xxoo hugs and kisses now and always, Aunty Nema!
KAB - im so not looking forward to the 'dildo' cam, i didnt even know thats what i was having til i got on here and then just freaked out LOL but like you said, i'll be alright i just need answers more than anything. Thankyou, I know i wouldnt of coped very well if i hadnt told him. Sounds like Rowan is one hell of a great guy!
Jayns - YEAH how exciting for you my sweet, booking a u/s!!! Well done, like the Dr said im sure everything is fine!
-
An Official Congrats To Jayne, Well Done !!
-
Naomi Thats good atleast you have told him now, Ricki is very much a thinker as I am sure you already know let him diegest it for a little while and I am sure he will talk to you about it, and it would not have helped with mum getting home either.
and yes I will be joining you all soonish probably in october I think although I am very nervous of trying again it is a daunting thought and I think I will spend my next pg scared well I hope not but I just cant imagine not being worried but I am sure these are natural feelings that we all have in common.
Jayne Congratulations, sounds very posative for you YAY Woohoo
-
Naomi i hope you get all the answers you need on Thursday when you have your ultrasound i am praying it is all good news for you.
Having an internal scan is not as bad as it seems. I think it's a lot easier to deal with than having an interanl from your Dr.
-
Well done Jayne!!! Thank you for your lovely words. I know Caitlyn is fussy (she is my child after all!!) but I am more than ready. I am not convinced I will join you this month. I felt pre-AF weird this afternoon but that has gone again. I guess we'll see in the next few days. I was thinking of testing tomorrow but I may chicken out and just see what eventuates.
Sarah - I have no problem with giving injections, just the receiving!! At least having people like you tell me going slow is better is a little bit of pre-knowledge that will help me manage my dislike of injections. I even had to teach FIL and MIL how to inject FIL with clexane today. Easy to teach but .....
Just watched the SBS (show on miscarriage) which was quite good. Off to finish an assignment that is due tomorrow (procrastinating - I'm VERY good at it) before heading to bed. Had the best phone call tonight. A very good friend of mine has returned from O/S and is 30 weeks pregnant after choriocarcinoma (cancer of the chorionic villi I think - but that area), chemo and drug induced menopause 5 years ago. She created her own miracle after miscarriages and failed IVF so she is my ray of hope. I can't wait to catch up with her on Thursday.
Chat to you tomorrow before the dreaded work beckons on Thursday!!
-
Hey girls...
I am sorry it has been such a long time since I have chatted but I have had to take some time away knowing that I will not be joining you all again...but please don't feel sad for me because i am able to share my special baby dust with you all:)
Plus my DH has been on holidays for 5 weeks and we have been scrubbing walls and cleaning the house properly and doing all the home maintenance stuff...and we had a car accident 4 weeks ago, we weren't hurt but our car was towed away and we are still waiting for it to be repaired am hopeful we can pick it up tomorrow...a lady decided to do a uturn in the middle of the highway straight into us...my door(passenger) was caved in and front , I was trappped and had to climb out thru the back...lucky we have a kia carnival, just got to the kids and we all piled out the sliding door..other car was written off!! To make matters worse we were on our way to Dad's(2 1/2 hours away( for a holiday and didn't even make it to the next town!!!We had the trailor on too!! I t was a mess!! Needless to say , Dad came and picked us all up and we went anyway...:p
So I have had some pretty full on weeks...no car since 6th June! Except for a mate who had a apare 4 weel drive(cause he is selling it) and has lent it to us to use from last friday onwards...what a fantastic thing to do...must give them a really good xmas pressie!! Anyway will endeavour to keep chatting to you all and spreading my special baby dust.....((((blow))) catch it girls...it's for good luck!!

Hi Again,
Jayne, Congratulations Again!
Naomi, I am really glad that you feel a little bit better after telling your DH, Hang in there Thursday is getting closer (i know that even if it was in 5 minutes it wouldnt be close enough). Do you think that your DH will be able to accompany you to the scan? Like someone said before just for him to hold your hand would be better than going on your own.....
Amym, I am sorry for the loss of your baby and yes it defiantely is scary when you TTC again and go through another pregnancy. Thats why BB is such a great source of support (as i am sure that you already know). I lost Katelyn at 18 weeks and i dont think that i would have made it through Lucy's pregnancy semisane without the help of the girls that are on this site. We are all here to help each other and we will all make it on to have as many healthy babies as we want.
Catch you guys tomorrow.
Love Sarah xx
-
Jayne ~ honey, congratulations on the great OB app!!!
I can't wait to hear the HCG levels. And, I know exactly what you mean about going to and u/s too early!!! I know you've been a busy bee, will chat to you soon.
Beccy

Thanks Sarah,
and I couldn't agree with you more this site has helped me through some tough times, I think it was kinda fate that I joined when I did as I mc in Dec too @ around 4 weeks pg and I just would not have known what to think or do if it were'nt for some very helpfull advice here, as I always thought it will never happen to me and in April was one of the hardest times I have faced I am so thankfull I did not have to go it all alone, I now understand more about pg and m/c not that I will ever understand the why's and it is so heartbreaking but gaining strength to think about TTC again is all thanks to you girls as I know I will have support and we can all do this together although I really hope all of you have BFP by the time I ttc,
big hugs and babydust to you all I am praying that each and everyone of you get the BFP you hope for very very soon
*MWA*
-
Hi gals,
Not much time for personals, just a quick shout out to Jayne - whoo hooo everything sounds so positive!! Will be waiting for your bt results.
Michelle - I pray its a bfp for you matey - test tomorrow morning!
Sarah - thank you for you kinds words, im sure i will need all the support I can get around EDD (29 July).
Me - af is now red flow, so its a bfn for me! But I have some good news..... the couple I told you about yesterday that announced their pg...well...they asked me to be godmother!! Yipeee. I cried when they asked me. I cant wait.
Have a great day..
Lisa
-
Well, I'm not the bearer of good news. POAS with FMU today - BFN. So I guess I am just waiting for AF to arrive. Only 3 clomid cycles to go until who knows what. A little down, obviously, but I had a feeling this would be the result yesterday. It looks like you and I will be cycle buddies again Lisa.
-
Chin up Mich - you dont have af yet my love, so it could still be a BFP for you. Remember Ms Jayne had a bfn too and now look at her!! I'll keep praying for you my sweets.
-
Thanks Lisa. I have no doubt they will arrive though. You know how you just have that AF feeling. Next month. The sun has to come out eventually. But all prayers are greatfully accepted.
-
Morning Girls,
Lisa, i'm so sorry to hear the AF arrived for you. I really thought that this was your month....
Girls i have a question for you.
On Monday i had sharp shooting pains through my right bb, and yesterday it was in my left (but a bit duller) and by last night they just felt strange. Today, they are both hurting. Usually when i get AF my nipples are really sore for a day or two, but this pain seems to right inside my bb's and my nipplea aren't too bad. Normally you don't even remember that you have breasts. Now i know that they are there from the way they feel.........any ideas anyone?????
-
So sorry that af has turned up for you guys. I was so looking forward to a few more moving over to the pg ark. I will be keeping some seats warm for you all so dont get to comfy in here ok!!
Big hugs to you all.
-
Good Morning Ladies,
Michelle - I'm so sorry about the BFN, but it aint over just yet my lovey! Until you have AF you're still in there with a chance! LOL at Caitlyn being your child because she's picky! See! She is just choosing the best that there is! Can you ask her though, if she can find a child that sleeps through the night from birth can it be sent my way please?
Lisa - Sorry to hear that AF has paid you an unwelcome visit. Grrrr. It's just not fair! I was holding very high hopes for you this month! I hope that you're not overly disappointed, there is always next month. Next month would bring you an April baby & that's when the weather has cooled down so lets hope!!
Naomi - Well done for telling your man what's been going on. It's tomorrow that you have your dildo cam surprise isn't it? I'm sorry, we must look on the funny side of it to get through it. I'm thinking your Dr is certain that you're not pg because I doubt he'd order an internal u/s if you were? I'm still not sure on his logic about not telling you the hcg though?
Nola - I can't believe how quick your ticker is zooming on by! You'll be nursing a little bundle in your arms quicker than you can say 'I'll have the epidural thanks'. Are you going to find out the sex of the lovely Treacle? I bet you're starting to get a little tum-tum! How cool is that!!!
Shan - I have had shooting pains in my bb's too, so maybe, just maybe this is your month too!!! Where are you in your cycle?
Sarah - Thanks for the congratulations. How much longer until I can say the same to you???
Me - Well, yes, unfortunately I"m not going to know any hcg levels until Friday! Bummer. But you can't rush these things I guess. I'm quite a bit nervous, especially after watching the show on SBS last night. Hands up who bawled when the bubba was born at the end? ME ME ME!!! I'm feeling so blergh today. I get some dizzy moments too, so I'm taking them all as good signs. I just had a panic attack though that I was having twins. My dad thought Jessica was going to be a twin, so I'm hoping like crazy that this one isn't a twin! LOL. My mum has taken Jess & my niece out for the day. One of the first times I've been happy to wave Jessica goodbye! I'm just feeling so yuck. I was going to go out shopping for the day, but I just can't muster it. I want to curl up on my bed and die. My insides feel like they're on the spin=cycle of the washing machine and I just want to switch it off. Me very nasty to DH. He is desperate for bding and I'm just too yuck to do it. So I told him the dr told me yesterday that because of the m/c, no bding til 16w! He believes me too. My gf was told no bding til 16w so I"m not entirely lying. :doh: I think I'm going to go run myself a spa and have a nice cup of tea. I'm so happy to feel so sick but so not impressed at the same time.
Love jayne

Morning
Got hold of my hcg levels today, no suprise to be told they are less than 2!
Im not too sure how i feel about it.
I dont think Rick is able to get time off work unfortunately, he rang earlier to find out what time it was, and when i said 10.10 he asked how long it went for and i said anywhere up to 2hrs, he asked if the time could be changed, and i was like ah ah nope, it was hard enough getting in at that time, but told him not to worry about it, that i'll be fine! Which I will be, im sure!
Amym - October isnt that far away (as thats my bday month!!) i should know lol We will all be here to support you when you decide to come over here. luv you now and always xxoo
Shan - im not too sure what that means at all, i hope its good though iykwim
Jayne - yes my app is for tomorrow at 10.10, yes having a dildo cam is pretty funny, especially when that hos i explained it to Rick! LMAO he was like WTF??? it was hilarious! prehaps he didnt want me to be dissapointed iykwim? i rang and got them this morning though, being less than 2 i really have no chance of being pg, unless i caught the egg when i o'd last week! but doubt ful, but im sure i'll have all the answers i need tomorrow!
Bugger about you not finding out your hcg levels! and yeah for having a day to your self!
I hope you enjoy it, and dont feel sick the whole time. Wishing Friday will come faster for you!.
A really big hello to everyone else
-
Jayne - I'll send your request to Caitlyn for a *sleeps through the night* baby. I just wish she would hurry up and make her choice for me - there's fussy and then there is FUSSY!!! I know AF is not yet here but you know what it is like. How many DPO were you when you tested?? No AF is a glimmer of hope but I really think they will be here sooner rather than later. Just so damn depressing. I feel like the sand in the timer is running out. And yes, I cried throughout the SBS show too. Far too close to home for me, especially when I *knew* AF was on the way last night. I hope your washing machine tummy settles, but it is still a good sign!!
I'll be back to chat to you all later.
-
Hi lovely ladies time to lock this one now & move on over here to keep on chatting.
