gosh its quiet in here, i just wanted to let you know i saw the specialist, i took an a4 sized piece of paper with me with questions i wanted to ask.
the short story is she basically said the miscarriages were one of those things and didn't know why it was happening. she offered to do a lap saying that 10-20% of people have a problem there but i think that is more for people who can't get pregnant, not really for those who can get pregnant but can't hold onto the pregnancies.
i asked her what she thought about ivf, she said i could do it if we wanted to but she really didn't think it was the solution as again i can get pregnant and she didn't think ivf would make the difference in them sticking, i declined the lap and said we would think about everything else, so the bottom line is we can go on trying ourselves and hope we get that sticky bub or decide to call it quits, right now we don't know which way we will go
sunbeam: any more leads on potential DD's ?
Saffy: thinking of you and hoping you are having a good time away
loops: if you are still reading how are you going ?

Minnnie - I have no suggestions for you babe I'm pretty much in the same boat, mc after mc and no explanation as to why. Its good you are getting the chromosomal tests done. Have you looked in to NK cells too, I know a few ladies who have been through here have been medicated for that and successfully had sticky bubs. My FS does not really believe in it but gives me steriods for the 5 days after O to suppress any auto immune response.
Saffy - How are you doing babe?
Hi Crafty and Mathew's mum.
AFM - Well I have found a great site called sperm donors world wide and have contacted several possible donors. I am hoping to meet up with one or two this weekend. With any luck I will be back in the TTC game in the next month or so. I've been up and down in my emotions and tried to start my diet and exercise this week but have no motivation so I'm just going back to my walking and taking care of myself.
Scan today was good, exciting but I was so nervous going in. bub is measuring only 6wks 1 day, a little stressed over it because I thought I was further along but then again my cycles can be long and get up to 36days so it is hard to know. I also have a friend that went in for a scan when she thought she was 10 weeks and the same sonographer (or whatever they are lol) told her it only looked like 8 weeks and she has gone on a lot further now. We saw the tiny flicker of the heart beat and it was at about 115 to 120 BPM.
for all
you get a new donor - all the best!
