    Would you share your story?

    Hi everyone

    Although I've been a member here for some time I've never been a regular poster as I find it so hard to keep up with the fast moving threads!

    DH and I have been TTC for 18 months and in those 18 months we have suffered 3 losses from 3 BFP's.

    There has never been a time when I have felt more alone than I do when I lose a pregnancy but hearing from others who have been through the same or similar thing made me feel a little less alone.

    It is for this reason I decided to establish Baby, Where For Art Thou so that I could share my story in the hope that just maybe someone else might read it and not feel so alone.

    I would love to have as many stories from as many different people as possible on the site. It is designed to be annonymous but you can write a story using your first name only or use an alias. Your name isn't important, it's your story that is. I don't only want all happy ending, rainbows and sunshine stories because lets face it, life and especially TTC is not like that all the time!

    If you'd like to share your story or even read the stories of others please visit the site and drop me an email, the address is on the page.

    Hi Poppy,
    This is a lovely idea, I hope the mods allow you to keep the link.

    I had a quick read of your blog and am so sorry to hear of your losses and hope that your will soon get your baby wish. I hope you don't mind me asking, but I am assuming you have seen a specialist about your losses? I have seen so many others on this forum in similar circumstances who have been tested for things like immunological issues and have found a reason, been treated, and gotten their forever baby. I hope you find your reasons too.

    Wishing you all the best xx

    So do we send our story to you so you put it on as I can't see how to add it ourself. What a good idea by the way.

    Hi,

    Yes I am seeing a specialist and am having ever test under the sun, so is my DH. We've actually just had all the chromosome tests, or the blood for it, taken today.

    I need to add the stories which you can send through to my email address. It is on the blog page.

    I decided to make it because it's something that I wish I would have had when this all started happening to me.

    the email is babywhereforartthou@gmail.com

    It is written out on the site like 'at gmail dot com' to prevent people collecting the address for spam purposes.

    lovely idea thank you...you are right, the experiences we go through, and the losses, can be very lonely and isolating
