Deb yep we went to Melbourne Tuesday of this week, so only just got back. All went really good, we saw Dr Stephen Cole in Perinatal & he was fantastic. Didn't spin us any bull$hit & was honest with us about it all. He thinks that there is no link between Alex & Thomas's losses but does think that there may be some kind of link between James's prematurity & losing Alex. So we have to have some basic genetic karotype testing done on both myself & DH, then a few more bt's for me. Plus he wants them to have a look inside my uterus in a non-pregnant state to make sure all is fine in there & no defects or bands are present. So we still have about a 10-12week wait ahead of us before we are allowed back on the TTC bandwagon but we are ok with that. I have gone back to WW as of last nite to try & move some of the massive amounts of extra weight that I am carrying ~ just to make it easier on my body whilst pregnant next.
He also outlined a game plan for us for during a next pregnancy which left us feeling pretty good, although he was honest enough to remind us that we still need to keep in mind the possibility of losing another baby. Which was hard to hear but expected I guess. He also thinks we have a great chance of having another live healthy baby, but did say he couldn't guarantee it would happen with our next pregnancy, also said it could well happen the next time we try as well.
So all in all pretty good.
Glad to hear that your OB isn't too stressed about your bleeding after the reaction to the clexane but I so understand how worried you must be. But this little bubba is gonna be fine. Big hugs to you & thanx for asking after me.
