Jen: thanks so much sweets and thanks for understanding. Hope you are doing well and have a lovely day over there
Theresa: congratulations on seeing the heart beat - that is wonderful news. Hanging out for mine which is next wednesday
Mel: thinking of you today and hope the op goes very well and that you recover quickly
Toccara: sending you lots of and hoping this is your month.
Mmmm - stop thinking so much - a very good idea for me i agree, now I just need to work out how to do that
HannnahD: take care sweetie and know we are all here for you. Thinking of you
to everyone. Praying that those of you in victoria have not been affected by the fires. It is just so sad and devastating to see so many people have lost there lives. Houses can be rebuilt but we cannot replace these wonderful valuable people
Hi everyone sorry I've been so non existant lately and i'm afraid this has to be really quick as I've gotta scoot off to work. Thank you to all you lovely ladies for thinking of DS and myself was a scary thing but he's all good now got back in the pool on the weekend so hasn't gotten a fear of the water which is a relief and the gate was fixed the next day.
WTH- CONGRATULATIONS such exciting news!!
And as far as I go bleeding has not stopped and when I talked to my my darling husband about going to the docs about it he informed me that when I passed out after coming back from surgery the doc said it could be a couple of months.. just gotta be patient.. He thought he told me!
Happy tears I could not believe how many wonderful messages were waiting for me on this thread this morning. You are all sooooooooo sweet and it means ALOT to have you all so genuinely happy for me. I want to prove that there is hope, not just for myself, but for everyone who has suffered the deep emotional sadness of MC.
Sweet Jen - a HUGE for all those smilies and the best post I've ever seen! One day (soon) I am going to see a beautiful BFP in your BB signature. Lets have big bellies together
Toccara--Sorry your cycles have been so screwy and all over the place. Hope that your dr. appt. next month goes well! Remember that there's always hope ( WTH) --never lose sight of that!!
jackjack--Aww, hon.... I'm sorry--I really hope that the bleeding stops soon! It's really so hard to be patient, and even more so when waiting to TTC! Will say some extra for you! Oh, and so happy your DS got back in the water--it's amazing how resilient kids are!
WTH-- Thanks so much! Would love to have a big belly with you! I'm just so thrilled for you... I don't think I could be any happier if it were my BFP we were celebrating! I'm truly sincere! An extra dose of
babymiracles--Barely more than a week to go! Some to get you by! Big *hugs* and some "zen-ful" thoughts!
jackjack - That is so scary about your DS, I would have asbolutely freaked if that had been my DD. So glad to hear that he is all OK now though and happy to get back in the water. I hope your bleeding stops soon, 2 months of it would have driven me insane
babymiracles - Glad you found that website, that is the one which my DH found when we were looking too - I found it really reassuring too Hang in there, I know exactly how you feel, my stress levels get higher and higher the longer it is since my last ob visit (stressing a bit again this week for no apparent reason ) and peak while I'm sitting in the waiting room waiting to see him! Heaps of good luck for next Wed, I'm sure everything will be great!
Toccara - I hope your cycle sorts itself out soon and that your drs visit goes well.
Jen - Thanks! There's plenty of belly there to rub now LOL I have started poking out a bit, although I think that people that don't know me probably wouldn't notice. I'm not an awfully big person, so it feels like everything has started popping out early this time around! I'll just second what WTH said too cycle buddy - come and be a belly buddy!
smi - Yay for the 2nd tri! You did it! I would try not to stress to much about delivering early too, your bub will be fine. My DD was 3 weeks early (came of her own accord) and after a few early problems she did well and is now a 4 year old with attitude to match!
Mel - Just wanted to wish you the very best of luck for today hun Hope it all goes well!
HannahD - hun
fifi - Yay for finishing work! Not long to go.
Theresa - Yay for seeing the heartbeat!
Hi to everyone else that I have missed, I hope I covered everyone in yesterday's hello, but if I missed you I'm sorry.
AFM - Have just come back from a visit to the eye specialist so please excuse any typos, my eyes are still recovering from the drops and things are a bit blurry! Had to wait a hour and a half after my appt time to see him too GRRRRRRR but at least my eyes are good. I'm going along OKish, starting to stress out a little more now - I'm OK for about 2 weeks or so after seeing the ob, but then my confidence starts to slide again gradually Still have to get through this week and next, but at least I have no signs that anything is wrong. Just have to keep telling myself to relax.....
HannahD - good on you for going to have a chat and get some support, so brave. Then when my BF died, I went to a councellor who was good, the best part was being validated for feeling that way. Then later saw a hypnotist to try to lose some weight, didn't work for that, but it was wonderful for the grief I still felt, lifted it.
Jen - That would be an ex friend - what a cheek!!
Fifi - low iron sucks, had that too. Made a difference to take 100mcg iron each day, but bit blocky on the bottom IYKWIM.
best wished for those that are and those that are trying.
AFM - back on the bandwagon and started an antagonist IVf cycle. Feeling a bit more positive.
2007 - m/c (4w+3d)
2008 - Preterm Birth (DD 16 weeks early, 8 days when passed)
2009 - m/c (sometime between 5w+3d - 7w)
We're going to start TTC again as soon as my cycle starts again. Not going to follow any Dr advice this time and we will wait until we hit 8-9 weeks before we test for pregnancy so we don't get our hopes up.
Anyways - looking forward to sharing stories with you all.
Jackjack - oh my gosh, I was nearly sick when I read abut your DS, thank goodness he is OK
Nae - welcome back, I am just new, very uplifting to read all these girls
WTH - congratulations!!!! really exciting
The fires here continue to haunt us. Very shocking. We are very lucky not to be near, but we have friends who are in it. It will be a long rebuild, thanks for your thoughts.
Sorry in advance for the me post and no persies but I am dosed up on painkillers and still in a fair bit of pain so not so easy to type.....
Well, I had my op today and guess what I finally got some answers!!! The Dr found some mild endometritis which he removed and my right tube was also blocked in a few places with mucus! My left tube and uterus are fine.
I am sitting here crying happy tears and feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I didn't realise how much pressure I had put on myself and how emotionally exhausted I was.
For the first time in 15 months I have true hope again and I am actually excited about TTC again.
DH has been so wonderful sitting with me all morning and then he had to wait for a couple of hours for any news (he was a bit worried) as I was in recovery for twice as long as it took me a while to wake up - they must hve really knocked me out! He is waiting on me hand and foot. It just reminds me how lucky I am to have such a wonderful, supportive hubby who I love so very much.
In quite a bit of pain and bleeding a bit (with bits of blue from the dye - sorry if TMI ). It was so worth it though and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
Thanks so much to everyone for your messages of support, it means so much and I couldn't wait to post to you all to let you know how I went. I only got home at 3.30 and would have posted earlier but Mum and Dad have been here to make sure I was ok but posted as soon as I could. Even DH made a comment at the hospital about how I would be straight on here when I arrived home - well of course!
Mel - I'm so glad the op went well and that you have renewed hope and inspiration. I that you get to hold your forever baby soon.
Thankyou to everyone for your support. It means so much to me right now to know you are all here. I might come back later to attempt more persies (I have to get dinner ready).
WTH - so - may this be the stickiest of bubs for you!!!
Jen805 - you are our rock wonderful woman!
HannahD - in the middle of everything you are working through - thank you for thinking of us
Theresa - congratulations on a beautiful scan - it must have been amazing
jackjack - am completely thankful everything is OK with DS - I cannot imagine the moment (my DD is not quite a swimmer yet and up North you are constantly near water)
Mel - hope recovery is swift and TTC to match
Much love and laughter to all - the dog is demanding dinner - need to feed the wee beast before he gets desperate and takes up hunting
AFM - we have a heartbeat - scan on Friday showed 7 wks, 1 cm and 136 BPM - tiny and fierce - first mental stumbling block gone
Oh megsmum--I'm trying! Would you please just put your pg'cy on hold for me, so that I can catch up with you? Just tell your little one to get comfy... there's been a bit of a delay! LMAO... Ok, cycle bud... you're doing great... just breathe! No stress, no worries, just happy big belly thoughts!
Samandpoppy--Best of luck and lots of for a successful IVF cycle! Can I ask you, tho, what an antagonist IVF cycle is? So very sorry to hear you have friends dealing with the fires--it's absolutely tragic to see whole towns getting completely destroyed... and the loss of lives is just heartbreaking! Your friends are in my thoughts and prayers!
NaeNae-- We've never met, but we're as happy as we could possibly be (under the circumstances) to have you join our humble little thread. I'm so very sorry for your losses, and I wish you the best of luck for a quick TTC journey. The girls here are the absolute BEST, most supportive, thoughtful, caring bunch of girls you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting! I look forward to getting to know you better, and enjoying the company of a new friend! *hugs*
Mel--I'm so happy and relieved for you that your op went well and you finally got some answers! Saying lots of prayers for a quick recovery and an even quicker BFP!!! Big, huge, sloppy *hugs* for you, sweet!
Hey Hannah! I just have to give you a big, sloppy too!!
Karen--Congrats on a great scan! Yay for tiny little I'm thrilled for you!
Me--Still waiting to hear about my thyroid results. Grrr.... they thought the results would be in at the end of the day on Friday! Now it's Tuesday...
jen...big ol' hugs for you...just because! You always make me smile and I am positive I'm not the only one...
megsmum...thanks for the encouragement! you'd think this was my first time around LOL...I know exactly how you feel about doing well for a couple of weeks after the doctor appointment then bam...anxiety starts to slowly creep in. I'll be so glad when I can feel baby moving around consistently...I think then I might feel better...maybe *wink*
Mel...big hugs for you...so happy you got some answers... you'll soon be blessed with your forever baby...
AFM...got the NT results back...we are good to go...very low risk! Saw doctor this morning and he said everything is looking and sounding good so far...baby heart rate was good (I LOVE hearing it!)
Jen- AF is not being too terrible with me. Yay for being cycle buddies this month. Hopefully this is our month and we both get our BFP. Hopefully you get your answers back from the DR soon on your thyroid.
Toccara- Sorry AF has been so hard to track. Hopefully the new DR will give you some well deserved answers. Praying you get your forever baby this year.
Babymiracles- How are you feeling?
Jackjack- What a relief that DS is not fearful of the water since the scare and that the gate is fixed. So sorry that the bleeding hasn't stopped. Hopefully it ends soon so you can start TTC again.
Megsmum- Glad to hear that your eyes are good. I know how hard it is trying to relax. Extra *sticky vibes* for you.
Samandpoppy- crossing my fingers for you a BFP this month
NaeNae- So sorry that you have to join us here. But Welcome and you are now with the best group of supportive and loving women I know. Praying you get your forever baby soon.
Mel- I'm so glad the surgery went well and that you got some well deserved answers. Sending lots of *baby dust* your way.
Karen Van- Good luck on Friday with the scan. Yay for getting to hear the heartbeat.
AFM- Still have AF. Just waiting for her to leave and praying this is my month.
Thanks so much for your get well messages. Feeling very sore today but still on a high - or maybe that's the drugs I am on
I know we still have a road ahead of us and trying not to get our hopes up that it will happen straight away but we at least have a much better chance than we've ever had since the m/c. Decided to treat it like we are starting all over again, I even have some of that 'excitement' back that we first had when we made the decision to start trying.
Dr said to try for another 4 months and see how we go. If still no success by then we will look at IVF. Since neither myself or DH have any problems though and everything is now in working order we are hoping it doesn't come to that
Jen - Only you can get away with calling me my nickname Hope you get your thyroid results soon and it is good news. Big sloppy right back at ya!
Shortcake - Hope AF leaves soon so you can and get you BFP!
Smi - So glad everything is going so well. Yah for a great heartbeat, what an amazing sounds that must be.
Karen - Woo hoo, glad your scan went well. Wishing you the best for a H&H pregnancy. Stay strong
HannahD - Thanks, I only hope you can get back the same hope I now have. I wish there was something I could do to take your pain away. Just keep imagining the moment you hold your forever baby in your arms, I get sick of people saying this, but it will happen. We have to believe and have hope, that's all we can cling to at the moment. I pray you get your BFP soon.
Naenae - So sorry for your loss but I am glad you have joined us in this thread so we can help each other through this journey. Wishing you all the luck in the world.
Megsmum - Try to relax and just take it one day at a time. Easier said than done I know. Only a few more weeks and you should be able to feel your little one move around. I hope that eases your anxiety *stickyvibes*
Babymiracles - Thanks for your message. How are you feeling?
To all our Victorian friends, please know our thoughts and prayers are with you at this devastating time. I hope you and your loved ones are all safe. DH and I were in that area a week before the fires began for a wedding and we saw just how dry it was, it's just pure devastation.
Big hi to everyone else, please know just because I haven't mentioned your name you are no less thought of. Still a little vague so don't want to attempt naming everyone in case I miss someone!
Have to go and lie down, it a bit of pain. Not that I am complaining!
Fifi - I had an appointment booked to get an eyelash tint today. But now that I am PG I was googling whether it was still safe to do so during PG. Seems ALOT of PG ladies have sore, itchy eyes. So much so, they cannot wear mascara (which is why they are discussing the tints). You are not alone. Have you tried some drops of saline?
thanks so much sweets and thanks for understanding. Hope you are doing well and have a lovely day over there
and hoping this is your month. 
such exciting news!!
He thought he told me!
Happy tears 
I could not believe how many wonderful messages were waiting for me on this thread this morning. You are all sooooooooo sweet and it means ALOT to have you all so genuinely happy for me.
