Anila: Your sis is being a cow...you take as much time as you need sweety
Kyra: Holy crap! I would have been megga piissed!
Sorry everyone seems to not be having a good day...but I need to confess something! I have some news!!! And its pathetic but you ladies are the ONLY ones who will understand :P
I just bought a 3 wheel jogging pram for $10.00 and a cool bouncer thingy for $15.00!
The only thing wrong with the pram is the back right wheel needs to be fixed, its wonky, and there is surface rust on a bit of the metal you push down for the stop brake. But otherwise its GREAT! It is sooo light and its small so fits in my car perfect (i have one of those new model barinas) and the bouncer? Nothing wrong with it! Just needs a little wipe down! YAY!!!!
There is a second hand place off the roundabout at Wallsend here in Newcastle and they have all second hand baby stuff and it is SOOOOOO cheap! I didnt bother getting clothes or anything just saw the pram while driving past taking Anthony to soccer then took a sharp turn to snap it up
thats actually a gud idea..buying baby stuff can really get u in the spirit eh
When we first started trying for our bubs.. I went out and bought all these baby clothes and swaddlers and muslin wraps, we even bought a brand new bassinet that me and DH picked out together! (im very lucky to have a husband that gets as clucky and enjoys shopping as much as i do! and hes not even gay although it doesnt do that well for our spending control hehe)
Then when i got pregnant i went even more crazy and we had nearly everything we needed by week 4 lol!
I gave it all away except the bassinet when i misscarried, cuz i was just so sick of looking at it and geting upset.. I chose the wrong person to give it too unfortunately she took it all without a thanx and rubbed having her baby in my face afterwards, and she doesnt even take care of her these days we dnt talk anymroe and i dnt think ill be gettn that stuff back ,.
but uv inspired me coco i might just go out and go baby shopping next week to get me feeling clucky again hmm.. theres a toy sale on at target.. maybe i can lay by some stuff for bub to be and some christmas stuff 4 boo..
but for today i think im going to stay in my pj's lol, thanx to our loverly neighbours
Sunny my good friend, the test results for the genetic stuff & clotting and immune stuff take about 2 weeks and we got them done on Wed so not that long to wait now, not sure about the tissue tests from the D&C yesterday... I guess the OB will let us know when we call to get the other test results Hope your'e doing GREAT!

Kyra - I went to the Target Sales at midnight when they began and it was madness. I hadn't thought it would be so busy because the rain was pouring down but it didn't seem to stop anyone. We wanted to layby a cubby house for DD and I wasn't sure how popular they would be so I made sure I was there when the doors opened. As it was, most people were interested with the small stuff so I was able to walk straight up to layby and be served immediately. The teenage boy was dressed as Harry Potter and looked so sweet. I walked back through the baby stuff and thought about putting something away in case there might be another baby but I felt a bit sad to. Truth is, if I don't fall pregnant in the next couple of months we will have to call it a day. I thought if that were the case and I did layby something for Christmas for the baby then it might just make me sadder when it was time to pick the layby up. The baby I just lost was due Christmas Day.
Anila - I find that family feel they can be a bit more brutal with you than most others. From them I get, "Well at least you have your daughter" and I think, yes well she's one of the main reasons I want another one. She is always so desperate for other kids to play with. They mean well though. Mostly with them I try to pretend that it doesn't matter as much to me as it actually does.
evening all, thanx goodness its the weekend and i now have a week off WOO HOO!! Anyway i am a tad confused at the moment with what my body is doing. I was so excited for af to arrive but it was so so light and only lasted 2 days so i have no idea whether it was actually af or what the go is. A friend of mine who is a nurse said that maybe it was so light coz of the d&c. Has anyone else had a similar first af after m/c or d&c? Im going to the docs on wednesday for a couple of other things so i might ask her what she thinks it was. Im so looking forward to looking after my 5 month old niece in the morning, shes getting dropped off at 6.30 so nice and early start. Hopefully it will get all my hormones flowing and i get bfp very soon, thats what happened last time anyway. to sparkles and hello to everyone else and i hope you all are having a good weekend. Talk soon
So, I followed cherished and Sparkles this way. I sort of feel like I don't really belong - because of our molar pregnancy we can't start TTC again until at least January, and possibly later. Sucks. So I might lurk around here until then, chuck some babydust around, etc.
I also behaved like a bit of a crack head last night. I figure since "grown-up" privileges like having babies have been put on hold, then I may as well make the most of the time I have to act a bit recklessly. Had a party last night - I shunned our fine glassware in favour of an empty Vegemite jar. Took me back to 20 year old sharehousing days!
cherished - tissue testing from my d & c took a week, but I don't know if it was rushed because of the molar? Glad it went well though, I was thinking of you!
Anila - plenty of skinny ppl have m/cs and plenty of fat people have healthy babies. So tell your sister to shove it. Some ppl have NO IDEA! If I posted a boo-hoo for every insensitive comment I have had, this forum would shut down, I swear!
My faves have been "I think sometimes you need that before you start." Really? So why didn't you abort your first then, if you truly believe that?!
"It just wasn't your time" all round a baddie, but particularly harsh coming from someone not married, still living with her parents and an unplanned baby - 48 hours after I left hospy. (note I am not bagging the choice not to get married, she hasn't made the choice not to, she's just not organised enought o have actually done it)
And in reference to the molar
"At least you know you can grow a good placenta" Ummm, no, not really, if the thing is going to grow back and potentially go cancerous.
"At least they found it now" OK, you obviously just don't get it. Leave me alone.
Meanwhile, people I hardly know have been the best.
So, anyway, nice to be here, I'll mostly be lurking, won't have heaps to post, but I really hope all of you land some sticky babies very soon. I'll be right here cheering you on!

: Accidental double post, so split up the epic rant!
Hi girl's ive spent the day at taronga zoo with the kid's so i am buggered they dragged me around all day 6 and a half hour's later we had spent freaking $600 dollar's on petrol entry food and souvenier's and dinner on the way home so it was a once every couple of year thing and we wanted to spoil the kid's before we start our ivf anyway just wanted to say hi to our newbie's i remember sparkle's sorry to see you are back and i just thought i would add cherished our tissue and chromosone test's took a week to ten day's at most but genetic test's take about six week's if they have an idea what they are looking for otherwise is can take up to five month's i know chromosone translocation's can cause M/C ask your doc what they test for and make sure they test for everything

Eliselouise- After my D&C I didn't get my first period until about 5 and half weeks later. It was very light but seemed to last forever (maybe 6 days or so, I am used to a 3 day period). My 1st period after the D&C was then 30 days later and had returned to normal. Best to check with your doc anyway when you are in there if you are concerned at all.
Snugglybean- WELCOME, feel free to hang here for as long as you need. The women on this thread are awesome. Just to let you know that a friend of mine had a molar pregnancy first off (my understanding is that they are quite rare) and has gone onto have 2 children since.
Coco- great bargain hunting. I was thinking about getting a babies blanket recently at a childrens wear outlet sale that was 70% off and couldn't bring myself to do it. I love that you did.
Kyrawolfe- Hopefully you get that's good nights sleep I was wishing from last night tonight.
Ferals: I'm sure the kids enjoyed the day as much as you guys did, money well spent I would suggest for a fun day out. I'm a friend of the zoo in melbourne (I think it costs about $160 per year) and we can all go to the Melbourne Zoo for free, it pays for itself as we don't live far from there. I always take a cut lunch though- I guess DH tightness has rubbed off on me.
Kat- Did AF arrive?
Hi to Sunbeam, Sunny, Sparkles, Sammy P, Cherished and anyone else I might have missed.
AFM: Just returned home from one of DH's friends house for dinner. I had been in bed all day with a cold (man flu- but of course not the real flu) so only drank water whilst out. Just returned home and I am about to go to bed, but thought I would check in.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend- GO VIXENS! tomorrow in the ANZ Championship.
HI!!!!
I am having one of my - isn't life awesome days again...they are getting more and more lately.
went to my godsons first bday party yesterday. was a bit upset about it as well, you know, it can be hard to celebrate other peoples happiness ifkwim. Got rip roaring trashed, got the mum rip roaring trashed we are both a little
serves me right!
RB is showing symptoms of appearing so I haven't bothered to test. will wait till due and see what happens then, or maybe just one test lol
Coco: I have my 'hope box'. It's a box full of babies clothes, blankets etc that friends have given me. A few of the items a friend gave me and when she gave them she said it was because she knows I'm going to be a mum **sob** made me feel so great to have it said.
DB talks more about us having one...always 'when we do' not if we do. I feel like a little kid wanting Christmas to hurry up!
Kyra: that party does not sound like it was fun. I can't believe the cops didn't shut it down. That's whats great about where I live, on 50acres you can have a massive party without upsetting the neighbours.
Ferrals: your day out with the kids sounds great. Just the sort of thing my mum used to do when I was little...fingers crossed IVF goes great for you.
Snuggles: while you may not bd right now your still getting in the mindset and dealing with emotions so this seems like a good place to be, it will be Jan before you know it!
EliseL: a week off! I am so jealous! Make sure you pamper yourself and relax. I can't wait for the bris ekka holiday in a couple weeks - be my first day off in a few months, next holidays after that are November.
JoshsM: Hope your feeling better and your weekend was fun.
Anila, Sammy, Cherished, Sunny etc...hope you all had a great weekend...relaxed etc.
Anyone due to test this weekend? I'm looking to see a new BFP...I'm always wishing it was mine but so happy at the same time for who it is since we are all in the same boat.
I've decided next bub will be sticky...4 angels is enough. I'm not giving the next bub a choice It's going to learn straight away that its mum is a stubborn cow so just do what I say
Chat soon...take care
hello to all the girls and a special thanks to all those who thought of me on Friday or who have checked to see how I am
Snugglybean so glad you found this thread honey
Ferrals thanks for that, I will ask the OB what he is testing?.... The term chromosone translocation's sounds familuar though
Tina 4 angels is definitely enough... May a sticky bub come your way very soon
josh'smum what a shame you have the flu and drank water while you were out... one of the joys of getting af is that you get to drink again and of course after a D&C (ie, me lol) I had red wine with dinner last night when dh and I went out for dinner and it was LOVELY
Sammy It's hard to know when to start buying the bub stuff again and when to hold back because you just don't know how it will make you feel... After my 1st loss in March I hadn't looked at the stuff in our bub room until about 2 weeks before I got my 2nd BFP when I was out one day and just started buying girls clothes! We were sure our 1st bub was a boy and after my splurge on girls clothes I guess the 2nd loss was a girl??? Anyway we will enjoy shopping again... Personally I don't think I will buy anything until we know what gender we are having next time....
eliselouise I had a regular af after my other D&C, I did chart straight away though so I knew that I ovulated and my temps rose and than when AF came they dropped etc... I'd say it was a regular af for you though if it came around af time?
AFM I'm doing good, bleeding the least amount in the last 50 days to the point where it's just a very light brown discharge "thank God it's over"! I'm feeling good, have been helping dh in the yard today and am praying that I haven't put on too much weight when I get on the scales tomorrow! today I was 600 grams heavier than I was on my weigh day last Monday Oh well I just need to keep on the wagon!
Cherished- glad that the bleeding seems to be nearing the finish line. Don't worry too much about a little weight gain, you can always get back on the wagon next week.
Tina R- You sound like you are having an awesome- albeit hung over day. Glad to hear that you are in such great spirits. Positivity certainly is infectious.
Hi to all the other ladies on this thread, snugglybean, kyrawolfe, Kat, Sunny, Sunbeam, Ferals, Coco, SSM, Eliselouise and anyone else I might have missed.
AFM- Feeling loads better today, Flu symptoms, fever, ear aches, head aches etc gone now, just got a nose running like a tap. AF still hasn't arrived, although I think I can feel her approaching. Even if I was 100% I probably wouldn't have had anything to drink last night just in case. We, DH, DS and the pooch have just been to the park where we threw a ball for the dog and kicked the footy. DS played at the playground. Beautiful day here in Melb so it was loads of fun. Just about to settle in front of the TV to watch the nettie- very excited.
Hi all hope you are all feeling good this Sunday afternoon!
I've been reading away lots going on but I wont do persies today I'm having a "I feel a bit lost day" today.
Still no AF for me Joshsmum,.......few days over now.....I tested thismorning before I went to work and still BFN,............so dunno wat to do. Still getting period pain like niggles every now and then, gone through a tone of dunnypaper I've been checking so often. Never have been this late other than when I was pregnant last time, but BFN making me feel hopeless. DH and I are to start our first round of IUI....................cant start my injections untill Day 5 of cycle so waiting waiting, not patiently anymore.
Sorry it;s all about me today, I can't vent at work and DH is at a BBQ havin beers with the boys. YAY XX
PS what do I do with my counter it says day 2 but it should be day 34?
