    hoping42009baby -- I'm sorry I didn't see your post and hopped over it; I don't want you to think I ignored it! I'm sorry to hear of your repeated losses and of the very understandable emotional turmoil that it is causing you. Both BB and Flowerchild are such excellent resources for both information and support. Are you currently trying to get pregnant and/or meeting with a fertility specialist to start some testing?

    Jude, in case I don't have another chance to say so before Monday, yay and best of luck! So exciting to get a new baby in here again!

    hoping42009baby, sorry I missed your post as well. The only thing I can suggest is you make sure you do a lot of research on the causes of recurrent miscarriage so you can make sure that they properly test you for everything. I've not experienced the same thing so I can't offer you personal advice, but I've done a lot of research and just wanted to reassure you that for most medical causes of recurrent miscarriages there are effective treatments available. I hope your fertility specialist is someone you trust and who you can ask lots of questions because understanding the issues can be a big help.

    I would also suggest you read the sticky on recurrent miscarriage in the TTC after late loss/recurrent miscarriage thread.

    Good luck,

    Rozzie.

    And good luck Jude for Monday!!! only 2 more sleeps!!!

    Hi Ladies

    Just popping in to check on our expecting mums! Gosh it's getting close now! Thinking of you!

    Hoping42009baby...we have travelled the recurrent mirscarriage journey and found so much support and information here on BB. Pop into the ttc after recurrent miscarriage and late loss thread...sorry I don't know how to do a link for you. If you search in that section you will find some great information regarding all the testing you can have done. My advice for what it's worth...push to have the tests now...enduring the loss of a child is too hard...why wait any longer for info than you have to...may save yourself more heartbreak. But please, please have hope...it took us ten years...we gave up on IVF and then our little miracle happened out of the blue!

    As for us...well it's all a blur lol! I think Anika is sleeping and eating well but being a first time mum I don't really know...but she's here and she's safe and I look at her every day and thank God she is here...can't wait to for you girls to feel the same! Exxx

    No baby this week unless nature steps in. His head was not as engaged as last week so he will not induce. With a gap in front of his head there is the worry of cord prolapse if membreanes break with no head against the cervix. If he did the balloon technique then the balloon could push his head even further away and he could flip transverse or breech so... we have an appt for next Tuesday morning and see what happens then. the only good news is that the cervix is soft and ready to go.... but is also high and closed at the moment as there is no head putting pressure on it to open it.
    Nothing about this pg has been easy so why on earth did I think the end would be easy.
    His EDD is Annabelles Angelversary so I get the feeling he is waiting to arrive on her day.
    sorry for the me post, just a bit wel ok a lot disappointed.

    Jude, I'm sorry. it sounds like your doc is being very attentive and cautious so that is good. hopefully Daniel decides on his own to make an appearance soon!

    barring unforeseen circumstances Lan should post a BA for me tomorrow
