Hello everyone
have just been away for a couple of days at my mums so couldnt get online (had to go to the dentist ) Seems I have an abscess under my tooth so now I'm on AB's for a week then the tooth will be coming out!
Jane I really hope that you get a bfp soon what strength to hold out so long to test
SP it doesnt really make any difference if you do get pg without waiting but sometimes that time gives you the chance to build up courage to keep trying
missbelinda - make sure you hang around anyway until you are ready to TTC again!
SP - I totally understand how you feel about your SIL and not wanting to visit. When my SIL had their first bub 6 wks after my first m/c, I was terrified about going to visit them in hosp, as I didn't know what my reaction was going to be and the whole family were there. It turned out ok (I surprised even myself), but I had had a lot longer than you to come to term with things. Don't push yourself - I am sure she understands, and you will visit them when you are ready. I am thinking of you as I know this is a really difficult time
Sharon -
Bek - It is only supposed to take 4 - 6 wks to get AF back - my body just normally has long cycles, so it was a bit longer for me. I am sure you won't have to wait that long.
Well, I am not doing so well atm. Went to the ILs for dinner last night and it all just got too much. My BIL and SIL had a boy, the first grandchild, just 6 weeks after my first m/c (and 6 weeks before my second), so now all family get-togethers involve the entire family (2 parents, 4 kids plus partners, and a visiting aunt) getting clucky and cooing over a baby all night. Now, I know that it SHOULD be like this - of course they should be enjoying a new addition to the family but sometimes it just all gets a bit much for me. Luckily it is a 3 storey house and DH and FIL were upstairs in the study and everyone else was in the middle level, so I managed to escape to the ground floor where I balled my eyes out in the bathroom for half an hour, and DH and FIL thought I was with everyone else, and everyone else thought I was with DH and FIL, so I don't think anyone noticed. It seems to be getting worse, not easier, I wasn't this bad before, but it is all just getting on top of me, and I am so sick of being brave all the time and putting on a happy face when everything is falling apart.
I have an appointment with my counsellor tomorrow, so hopefully that will help. The trouble I have is that hardly anyone knows about the second m/c- I found most people so unsupportive the first time that I didn't see the point in telling them about the second. The only few people who know are our parents and a couple of friends that we found a great help the first time. So I feel like I am pretty much on my own (apart from you guys of course!!). I think that makes it even harder.
Also, I had a dream last night that my little sis announced she was accidentally pg, and she told me this while sipping down strong alcoholic beverages - I was so angry!! But it was only a dream...
Hi to everyone else - sorry to ramble on for so long...
