Porsche- your tww sounds hard, hope its over soon with the best possible result, has the tummy gone down? Also, can you sympathise with me I have now been spotting for over a month, took my last BCP today, just on Syneral now so hopefully spotting stops for my weekend away (knowing me I will get a full AF so am bringing supplies just in case)
Alice- sorry you feel grumpy, I used to take it out on a punching bag at the gym ( it was either that or DH so I took the safest option!!) When do you start the Lucerin?
T-Hopes- not sure about that one sorry, I used to get bleeding after sex ( sorry tmi) years ago which was a benign condition of my cervix which I got fixed (the cells lining the uterus sometimes sit a bit on the cervix too, called an ectropion) but it usually occurs everytime not just once so it doesn't sound like it. I guess if it keeps happening get FS to check but maybe it was just ovualtion bleed???
Have a good weekend everyone, I had to call in sick to work today because I have a grotty cold, which is annoying cos I am trying to save up my sick leave for when I'm in the throes of ivf, oh well. I'm off down the coast tomorrow for the weekend, have stocked up on books and chocolate.

Hey everyone
Mildez - fantastic news. Well done!
Porsche - I have everything crossed for you GF. I've got a good feeling......
SammyP - welcome, and sorry for your losses. Don't give up because some stupid FS is being negative to you. I think it is def worth considering another FS. I am in the process of seeing a General Physician of Internal Medicine to get to the bottom of why I miscarry. We all just want answers!!
Thanks for all your support earlier this week girls.
AFM - had such a rough night last night. My breasts went rock hard, hot and sore. For a moment there I thought they were going to leak. Then floods of tears and sobbing. Gee these hormones are wrecking me at the moment. Has anyone else had this with any miscarriages? I must admit I've never experience the hard breasts before, just sore.
-
Just a quick post as i am up at my besties for the weekend.
Just wanted to let you know I got the genetic test results back and bub had a chromosonal abnormality, just one of those things! At least we have the answer as to why I mc this time.
-
Sunbeam I am glad you got some answers this time. I hope you have a lovely time with your bestie this weekend.
SammyP Welcome and I too am sorry for your losses. I hope you find someone a better FS who can help you.
Mindhugs I haven't experienced that before but I know my friend did after her loss at 7weeks. She did produce milk and still had it 8yrs later (only if she expressed) but her milk did come in a few days after she had a D&C. I guess she was sore but it was the milk coming in that I remember.
Saffy I hope that nasty cold is buzzing of now. They are running around everywhere at the moment.
Well girls I am thinking of you all and stalking just not posting as I don't really know where I belong at the moment. Certainly don't feel confident enough to join a BB group and feel too early to go to the Preg after LTTTC or pre after m/c loss. I think I need a thread for newly preg after LTTTC and multiple m/c loss. I'll just continue to stalk away and read but not post often.
-
Mildez, you post as often as you like - that's what this thread is all about and speaking for myself, I would hope that I could do the same if/when I'm in the same situation as you. It's hard being in that inbetween space.
Porsche, Only eight days to go til your next scan x
Sunbeam, that's good to get some answers about the miscarriage. Have fun with your friend this weekend. x
Mindhugs, :hug: you poor thing, so hard to deal with loss while all this is going on physically. Big hugs to you xx
Saffy, blah, hope the cold has dried up and you can enjoy your weekend away. I feel like curling up with a huge block of chocolate myself (but I'm trying to resist). Start Lucrin after next AF which is in about two more weeks according to my ticker. Better ring the clinic and book in!
Hey lovely Ferrals, how's things with you and your bub??? Think of you often, don't leave us just yet x
Crafty, hope you're unpacking and settling in well to the new house and the TWW isn't dragging too much. Crossing my fingers for you x
HappyBaby, how're you going with the TWW?
SammyP, how are you today? Looking forward to the weekend?
Sorry to miss anyone. x
AFM well I can't say this has been the best start to a cycle but sort of feels like it hasn't really started until we get to the injections. I'm feeling really low most days, I know it's grief over our due date and I'm trying not to dwell on it but can't seem to shake it. I don't want to be feeling like this when we are starting out on a new cycle - should be excited and hopeful but I guess I'm a bit battle-scarred after all these years and can tell friends and family wonder why we keep trying. If it wasn't for you all I would feel pretty isolated. Thanks lovely women xx Sticky-vibes and baby dust to everyone xx
T-hopes! Sorry, lovely, are you feeling better now? Blah to being sick! Not long until your IUI x

Hello ladies
T-Hopes - Thanks for the recommendation of an FS. I will keep that in mind. I have an appointment to see someone in a couple of weeks who is supposed to specialise in recurrent miscarriage (according to his website) so I will see how that goes first.
Mindhugs - You poor thing. I didn't get rock hard breasts after the miscarriage but my body is doing all kinds of weird things. At the moment I get hot and cold flushes where I feel boiling hot and freezing at the same time (boy, is my body confused). I had that with the last miscarriage too and my MIL suggested it was menopause. That really isn't the thing to tell a woman still trying to have a baby. As for the floods of tears and sobbing, I'm with you there babe. I do that too.
Sunbeam - I hope the answers give you some comfort. My OB wouldn't do any testing as he was so convinced it was chromosomal abnormality. I know he is probably right but I would have felt I would like a more definite answer. Did you have that testing with any of your other losses?
Alice - Due dates are hard. Can you and DH do something nice on the day? My last EDD was 5 days after I recently miscarried and it was also DH's birthday. I just wanted to put my head in the sand but I didn't want DH to have a miserable birthday so we went out with friends for dinner and I was glad afterwards because it helped me put it to the back of my mind for a little while (that and the two ****tails I ordered!) I am not really looking forward to this weekend as I am already so over the election and all the related coverage. If we get the chance DH and I talked about seeing "Inception". Anyone else seen it?
AFM - It's now 4 weeks since the D&C and I have NO idea where I am in my cycle or even if there is one. My other miscarriages had all been natural, this was the first with medical intervention. I didn't have any blood tests so I don't know if there is still a HCG over 0 or not. I know there isn't enough to register on a test as I took one. Every now and then I get a ping from my left ovary which I presume is returning to action but I have tested with OPK's and there is not even the ghost of a second line all this week. I saw my OB on Tuesday and he said I didn't really need to wait if I wanted to try again now. I don't know if it is a good idea to try before we see the FS but at my advanced age I am not sure I want to waste even one cycle.

Alice-I aint going anywhere i check in on you girls everyday i am just quietly counting the days until this dam cvs i am starting to worry just a little that my bub will be affected with SLO like its sister.
Sunbeam-good you got some answers i know it does nothing to ease your pain but it helps to know that at least the baby would not have to suffer in this world with abnormalities.
Mildez-I know exactly how you feel i have a good chance of not making it past 12 weeks and it scares the hell out of me but i joined a BB group and told them my story and that i might not be there to long and they are supportive and helping me deal with what is yet to come.
Mindhugs-my milk came in after losing Abbi like a full term pregnancy and i still have some now 17 months later.
SammyP-the girls are fantastic here they were my life line at my lowest times i miss them terribly.
AFM-I am 8 weeks 3 days today i feel awesome feel reallllly pregnant which is great i can already feel my uterus above my pelvis which i have never felt before 12 weeks with any of my other pregnancies so i was a little worried the doctor missed a twin in there or is it because it is my 5th baby my uterus is just growing over time i didnt feel anything until 12 weeks with Abbi so not sure what is going on in there but it is a good sign that the baby is growing i have 3 weeks until my cvs and quietly sh#ting myself.

Hi Ladies
Well no news is good news. I had my last pregnyl shot last night so 5 more days till BT. Not really too hope full. Af is due Tuesday but I know the delightful pessaries will delay if she wants to arrive.
Ferrals - GBH. The waiting is the worst part. Just enjoy the pregnancy for what it is and deal with the CVS when it arrives.
-
Porsche, does that mean your test is this Fri? Good luck! Crossing all fingers and toes it is the result you want x
Ferrals, :hug: I hope the next three weeks fly by and you get a great test result. I just couldn't quite believe you didn't have twins in there so that's interesting about your belly and maybe they just haven't picked the other little one up yet!
SammyP, so hard to know what's going on after a mc and a d&c. It took me six weeks to get AF after mine in January, then my cycles were fine. I know others have had much longer waits and all sorts of odd things so I guess it's just a matter of time to find out what's happening. Hope you don't have to wait too long.
Sunbeam, Saffy - I hope you both had a great weekend away and are feeling more relaxed
T-hopes, has that cold gone??
Mildez, HappyBaby - how's the waiting game going with you both?
Mindhugs, hope you are doing OK
Crafty, hope you get connected again soon - miss you! x
MatthewsMum, are you still lurking? How many days til you start your next cycle?
Hi to anyone I missed
AFM, had a terrible day on Saturday was the lowest I've been yet then Sunday it was like a cloud lifted off my head and I feel fine again. I guess that's grief for you - there are days where it wipes you out then all of a sudden you feel OK again. Spent most of the weekend rugged up in thermals out in the garden working - was good to get plenty of exercise in and see some progress on our very sad garden. Hope everyone has a good week x
-

Hi all!
Im back at work now and feeling a lot better thank goodness! But feeling very frustrated as its CD20 and still dont think I've ovulated!! Have all the signs but no temp rise! Agh! Makes me so so so cranky! :wall:
Anyway we have our first appts with Melb IVF on Thursday - meeting with the nurse and the counsellor - very excited to get this IUI started but a little scared that it won't work and just setting ourselves up for more heart ache! No pain, no gain though right?
ALice - thanks for asking after me - im not 100% but much much better than i was! Sorry to hear you had such a hard day yesterday, which i could have been there to give you a cuddle! I know you said your EDD was approaching... when is it exactly if you dont mind me asking? I was dreading mine last March but found I had an enourmous sense of peace once that day passed, like i was able to let go a little more... i hope you have the same experience. Im now dreading the 12mth anniversary since I had the m/c, there seems to be always a sad reminder on the calendar :( Stay strong, good things are coming xx
Matthewsmum - good luck for friday, hope your precious little embie buries in nice and snug! will be thinking of you! xx
Porsche - how you feeling? Are you going to POAS b4 the BT?
Ferrals - good to hear from you - so glad to read that everything is going well... you have all the right signs for a healthy pregnancy, you and bubs are going to be fine OK!! Very easy for me to say dont stress to much - but try not too! enjoy every minute!! Remind me of this advice when I am UTD and stressing out! lol take carre
Mildez - Keep stalking - i have a feeling there will be some BFP's soon!!! Look after yourself and dont be a stranger - love to hear how your travelling xx
Sunbeam - glad that you got some answers and hope that you had a wonderful, restful weekend away with your bestie!
mindhugs - how are you going today lovey?
Saffy - hope that cold has passed and you had nice weekend away with your chocolate and books! Sounds devine!!! xx PS love the avvy! Cute!
Possum Magic - are you lurking out there?? sending my love if you are! :hello:
For those i missed - hope you have a wonderful day, wherever and whatever you are doing xx
-
Alice & T-Hopes I'll start testing on Wednesday lol I'm hoping my pregnyl BFP gets darker by Saturday. Not likely lol.
-
Hi girls, I'm back after my relaxing weekend away, but have sunk into depression today cos I have to do night shift tonight and don't want to go- boohoo:cry:, but excited about my new avvy and to see my furbabies again!
Porsche- I have a good feeling for you cos you had all that cramping earlier FX for your BT x
THopes-thanks, glad you are feeling better, sorry about your cycle stuffing you around, v frustrating!! Hope you O soon, you have your appt thurs to take your mind off it anyway xx
Alice-sorry to hear you have had such a rough weekend :hug:, I'm sure your normal positive outlook will override any temporary low moods for this cycle. I need to get in the garden but everytime I try it starts raining, it is good for the soul to be digging in the dirt and being around the trees and plants xx
Ferals- hang in there, you are going well! x
SammyP- I would try as soon as possible if I were you. I've had 2 D&C's and got AF 6 wks later both times, if you feel some O action its probably all getting ready ot start again, good luck with the new FS!
Matthewsmum- best of luck for the thaw process and Friday's transfer, at least you are doing everything you can xx
Mildez- please keep posting we will miss you otherwise!
Sunbeam- hope you had a good weekend, it must be a relief to know there was a reason for this m/c ( IYKWIM), not that it makes it any better. xx
Mindhugs-I've had sore, hard breasts with both my pregnancies but after d&c they go soft again within a few days, so I can't really help at all sorry. Hope you are feeling better soon:hug:
AFM- my cold went quickly so I was good and relaxed for the w/end, but AF arrived Sunday night which put me in a foul mood and have been a bit flat today. I just had a blood test to check the syneral is working properly so now i am paranoid that they will say it hasn't worked ( esp cos my nose was out of control last week I'd be surprised if anything got through!) If all is well, I start puregon injections Thursday.:crossfingers:
No side effects from syneral which is good ( or is that bad? maybe its not working properly?? Help- I'm paranoid!!)
-
Saffy night duty will make anyone Sane depressed lol. I completely hate night duty and it was one reason I resigned and became a casual. Now I can say no no no to them. There ok actualy its the recovering that does my head in I just dont cope. And your avi os gorgeous. Love your kitty Cats.
Nothing to report for me. I am praying for you all to come join the pre after m/c thread. I am praying so hard. Trying to speed time up until I see a HB. Another 6-7weeks to go. In comparisong to the time spent trying to get to this point it should go in an eye blink but it doesn't.
Porsche I hope those lines get darker and darker and darker when you start testing. FX
Alice I think your very normal having a shocking day followed by a better one. I guess thats a part of grief isn't it! I have everything crossed (even my legs now poor DH) that this new cycle brings you your sticky much longed for BFP.
-
Hi Ladies
Thanks for the good luck wishes. I've been keeping up with you all and posting in the 2ww thread. I got a BFP yesterday and hcg was 78. Progestrogen was low so I'm on 2 crinone a day now. Yesterday I had bad cramps so wasn't sure it was going to be a BFP at all and last night the cramps and backache were just like AF. I have another BT this Friday so will be a nervous wreck until then. I went back and read some earlier posts. Ferrals you were going through similar symptoms with cramping etc? So at least I know it's quite normal. There was a bit of dried blood on the Crinone stick this morning which I'm a bit worried about.
Sorry my head is a bit messed up for perssies at the moment. Porche good luck with your testing, hope you get a BFP.
-
HappyBaby! Congratulations and good luck for Friday. I had really severe AF cramps when I got my BFP last year - I was convinced AF was coming but she didn't so I'm crossing my fingers that this little one is hanging on tight in there for you. Let us know how you go (I'll hold off on the leaps and cheers until then as I know you are feeling really nervous right now but I'm doing a quiet happy dance for you) xx
Hi to everyone else - i have to rush this morning but I'll be back tonight for more persies x
-
Thats fantastic news Happybaby CONGRATULATIONS
Sending you a load of :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:: stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesgirl:
-
Happybaby-congratz on your BFP and was it blood on the crione stick or a pinkish colour as the crinone can have a pinkish orange tinge to it i had that a few times but it wasnt blood so fingers crossed for you.
