Just a quick post to congratulate Sharon on her BFP!!!! Good news!!!!! I wish you a very happy and healthy pregnancy!
I haven't been able to log on for a few days. We finally went to the snow this weekend and I have lots to catch up on - back soon with more personals...
hello again,
congratulations sharon, that is great,fantastic,happy news.
thankyou to everyone wishing me a lovely welcome, it is so nice to feel so wanted!
i just found out my little brothers girlfriend is expecting and is due at the same time my baby would have been had i not m/c. i am trying not to think about it too much, but my subconsciuos is letting me down, have been having horrid dreams.
i want to be happy for her and look forward to having a new neice or nephew, but right now is just too hard.god help me when she has the baby..........
anyway i am still bleeding from d&c 12 days ago, bring on af so i can start again!
Thank you so much for your well wishes everyone, there are so many different emotions to go through this time around. Will be going to my Dr on Thursday to get referal for Ob and may request a BT as he doesn't normally do them, then will make appt for Midwife at Ob's rooms and hopefully on that day will have a quick scan, so I will probably be about 7 weeks, and then at my 1st Ob appt he will do another scan (around 10 weeks)
Kerry just had a look at your chart and see that your temps are dropping, I know exactly what you thinking and how you are feeling, so big :hugs: to you Shoegal good luck for Wednesday, I can imagine how you must be feeling. Penny I haven't been to the snow for years, DH hates the cold, so all our holidays are usually up around the whitsundays. starryskye hopefully by the time your brother's GF has her baby you will be pregnant again, I was so dreading my angels EDD on the 3rd September and I think that being pregnant will make the day a little easier to handle.
Oh, was telling one of my best friends about my good news when she told me that her and her DH are trying for #3 as well now, she allways seems to fall pg so easily, so I am hoping she does this time too so that we can be pregnant together.
Will do more personals later (still gotta do some catching up!) but I have a question...on Jul 12 I had a D&C, on Aug 1 I Oed. Had some spotting here and there since then but nothing I could consider AF. But Sat my O indicator said I was Oing again! Is this even possible?! Decided not to wait this time and got a little BDing in with DH but we were both tired so it probably wasn't all that productive. Still I guess I should start back on the progesterone just in case - unless you all can tell me I'm out of my mind and I imagined the whole thing! Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!

Congratulations Sharon. Sending you heaps of . I knew it would eventually happen, even if you didn't!!! I would recommend getting the blood test done ASAP - it will either put your mind at rest, or like me will alert you early on that something is wrong and prepare you for it..... not that anything will go wrong for you this time.
sweetpetite - yes it is possible. women can O very shortly after a m/c but usually it will be at least two weeks afterwards which then gives you your first AF two weeks after O. I'm up to CD 15 now but haven't O'd yet but have been having O like pains so it's probably going to happen soon. This is my first cycle after my recent m/c but with my other two I O'd about two weeks later so am hoping for the same again this time around so we don't have to waste any time.
Hi everyone. I haven't had much time to get near the computer (apart from doing lots of work yesterday) so I have no idea what's going on here apart from Sharon's news. Hope everyone is well. I contacted my gyno and he is sure my m/c are being caused by the fibroid so he doesn't want to try clomid yet and wants to see me after the lap. I'm starting to get a little impatient about it now. The other woman I work with is looking for work and I'm worried that she'll resign before I get a chance to get the op done and then my boss will crack it because I want time off before she is replaced. Hurry up waiting list!!!
Good luck for the doctor's appointment on Thursday, Sharon!! And thanks for the hugs. Yes, those falling temps always give it away, don't they! Cramp city here today. Youch. Enjoyed my glass of red wine or two last night, anyway.
Hi everyone, I hope you are all doing well. I havent posted anything for a few days but i have been reading. Lawson is feeling good except for the spots, but im going to the dr today to get a clearance for him to go to kindy tomorrow. I will be glad to go to work and get paid again. Cooper still showing no signs...
Penny - I have been abit slack with every second day. Iv been feeling abit down lately and not motivated but im going to try and bd everyday for the next 4 days.
Satya - How long do you think you will have to wait for the lap?? im so sorry that you have to wait sweety. hugs to you both.
Sharon - Cant remember if i congratulated you, so congratulations !!!! best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy.
Sweetpetite - Sorry hun, dont know anything about ovulating twice.....everyone is different after m/c. I think LJ may have thought she ovulated twice too. Hope you find some answers.
Starrysky - This happend to me too. My cousin and I were both pregnant at the same time when i lost my first bub. We were only a week apart. And i found this so hard to deal with. I wouldnt go over to see her, and the worst thing is that she actually had her bub on my due date, so now its a constant reminder.
Glad Cooper isn't showing any signs yet and hope you'll be able to get Lawson back to kindy tomorrow, Treelo. Thanks for asking how I'm feeling. I'm fine apart from the cramps and wanting to ! I am now aiming for a spring BFP!
Treelo - don't know how much longer I will have to wait - they said initially the average for the hospital network for this type of surgery was 12 weeks but I should have my date by now if that was the case as I've had at least two full cycles (maybe even 3 since I was added to the list) Looks like the lists have got longer.... I rang them and they couldn't tell me anything other than I am on the waiting list....der I knew that already!!!
Its now been three weeks since m/c and I still haven't had af. I've been getting a slightly coloured mucus discharge which has been happening for a week now and my stomach is a little tender to touch. Does anybody know if this is normal?
Hi girls. BIG, HUGE, MASSIVE congrats to Sharon!!! Wishing you all the very best for a healthy and happy 9 months!
Hope everyone had a great weekend. As for me, I'm 3rd day of AF after coming off the pill, and have got an appointment with my gyno this afternoon to get the result of the tests I had 3 weeks ago for recurrent MC. Hopefully there will either be nothing to report, or something thats easily treatable. Fingers crossed! Thanks to this site, I'm also armed with a stack of questions for her. I'm particularly interested to know if my progesterone levels may be causing my problems? Anyhow, shall have to wait and see. Have a wonderful day, talk later.
Starrysky – it is so hard when there is pregnancy and babies in the immediate family, my SIL is also pregnant. Just take it one day at a time and go with your feelings. Hope AF shows up for you soon!!
Shoegal – Good luck!
Sweetpetite – I don’t know too much about O’ing after m/c. I thought I o’ed a few days afterwards, but now I am not so sure because AF that followed was shorter and darker than usual (sorry for TMI). But I have heard from other women that it could be possible….
Satya – I cross my fingers for you that you are moving up the waiting list for your lab asap. It must be very frustrating for you – big hugs
Kbowman – sorry to see those temps falling – still, all is not lost until AF arrives, so hopefully it will stay away for you. Good on you for enjoying a glass of wine. (I did!)
Treelo – hope life will return to normal for you now that Lawson is better. Good luck with bding. I am also doing the every day thing as O should show up soon– let’s hope we both catch the egg this cycle!!
Curl – the time it takes for AF to arrive after m/c seems to vary greatly from woman to woman – if you are tender and sore, maybe it’s best to ring your doctor and check with him.
I have started to use my OPKs for the first time this month, but I am just getting negatives, my ob said that even a faint line is to be treated as a positive. Has anybody heard of that before? The package says that a faint line is a negative. (?!)
kbowman: sorry this wasn't your month. I'm really hoping you get your BFP soon!!
Breaksie: Nice to "meet" you - hope your appointment went well this afternoon and you get the all clear for TTC again.
Penny: Hi, nice to "meet" you too I've never tried using OPK's I'm afraid.
Starrysky: And nice to "meet" you too!! I hope all of us stay in this topic for the least amount of time!!! I bled for 2 weeks (mainly spotting) for two weeks after my D&C, hopefully you end soon too!
Hi everyone else I missed. There's so many new people. I'm feeling I've definitely stayed my time in this topic and it's time to move on into the PG topic this this month haha!!
My temps haven't risen much at all but BB is saying I'm 3DPO. My CM has been the most normal though it's been since before I got PG so I'm taking that as a good sign, and trusting that more than just my temps for where I am in my cycle. I guess there's a chance I won't O this cycle after the second D&C...fingers crossed my temps keep going up.
I have a lot on right now so if I did O, I think the TWW will fly by and I won't go so neurotic this time
Let us know how you go!! How exciting!!
