mollycat--Sounds like you had an amazing family day! Your chart looks great, bet you're going to see a coverline any time now! Looks like everyone's in line for a July BFP--lets clear this thread out!
plc--Oh, man, now I really want to go to the meet-up!! It's so unfair I live too far away! Please take lots of pics for me so I can "be there" with you girls!
joey--We all understand, hun! Prior to my m/c the only thing I did online was pay bills! There's something about a m/c that makes us crave knowledge, and not only that but we crave the answers as to why this happened: could it have been prevented, did I do something to cause this, where do I go from here, etc... My mind after my m/c was like a slideshow that continually played over and over in my mind, and the only way I could deal with all the images and thoughts was through researching everything I could find on m/c and conceiving after m/c. I must admit it was consuming, but it got me through those dark days! That's how I found this site, and all these amazing women that made me feel completely normal--more than just normal, but accepted! I also learned to accept the fact that my family couldn't get me through this because as much as they tried, they just didn't understand. It's like expecting a woman that's never given birth to appreciate labor and delivery--it's impossible to comprehend until you're there dealing with it! I truly think your family is just at a loss for words on how to comfort you, and in not knowing what the "magic words" are, it's easier for them to just pretend it didn't happen. I'm very lucky that DF now realizes how important this is for me--just yesterday he was saying how cool it was that I'm so connected to the girls here, and how we were all brought together under such heartbreaking circumstances in order to comfort and be there for each other! I think he's just happy to be off the hook--he gets to hear the funny stories about the girls instead of being constantly reminded of the sorrow and pain! As much as I would've wanted to have a healthy pg'cy, I truly feel like I was blessed in a way because I never would've met this amazing group of women! When 1 door closes, another one opens--someday you'll see the connection and you'll realize what you were supposed to learn from this situation. Just tell your family that this is what you need to do to heal and find comfort--show them my post and say, "See! It's not just me, this is healthy and normal!" You need to do what makes you feel better--so tell them I said to leave you the hell alone! ( you know I'm just kidding!) BTW (sorry, by the way) IYKWIM is "If you know what I mean"--it's confusing at first, I know! I agree with jenushka, BB is not an addiction (well, for me it is!), it's dedication! Sending you lots of
jenushka--Thanks, hun, you're making me Did you picture me with curly hair like Krystie did? lol... The pic of you and DS is amazing--you're beautiful, and DS is SO cute! You look very much like I imagined you would!
I just felt like posting, really. No news for me, except that I told my dad about the calirvoyant thing today and he was actually really happy. Geniunely happy. it was a big surprise!!
Also, who is next to test? Surely we're due for one more June BFP! Fingers crossed!!
AJC -Thanks so much. I agree. The only people that really understand are the girls in here. You are all life savers Congratulations on your preg!! You must be so excited.
KL - So glad to hear the nana's club hasn't lost you. I was starting to get worried lol !!
Jenuska - Thanks for your thoughts - I totally agree. The Mater is supposed to be really good. Well done. We don't have private health cover, so we'll just be povs in the RBH. They were really good with my first pregnancy (a trillion years ago), so I don't mind. Yours will be a little more luxurious though, I am sure. ENJOY!
Tutmae - well if that's the case. Good luck with those twins that are on the way!!!!
Jen - sounds like you have a wonderfully understanding DH. Thanks so much for your words. I totally agree with EVERYTHING you have said. And I will tell them, they better watch out, or Jen will be around to see them!!
AFM - Feeling a lot better this morning. But don't like the idea that I have to do my 'researching' in secret so as to not stress out my DH. After our BDing last night, stuck my legs up the wall and a pillow under my butt, just in case I o any time soon. Hard to tell, my temp is saying not yet, but that's not going to tell me until it's too late anyway. My hCG was at 2 on Monday and Thursday last week, so it's probably wishful thinking that it's dropped to zero and I've dropped an egg already, but whatever!!
Love you all. Thanks so much for the continual support!! You are the best
Really glad you're back!
