Trying to Conceive After Miscarriage or Loss March 2010

murraycod hope your scan went well and all is set for the big Thaw!!! I have everything crossed for the smoothest few weeks followed by a BFP

Hello ladies! The other crazy lady is here :)

I'm pulling a sickie off work today. I do feel a bit rubbish, but mostly I just wanted a day off. That wisdom tooth that gave me some flack last year is shuffling round again, so I can't eat properly, and I seem to have a bit of a tummy bug - lots of cramps and a bit gassy. I'm towards the end of my TWW - AF is due on Sunday, but I am not even going to test, I don't think, because I really don't think I could be prg - have no symptoms at all. SO, whatever, will try next month for a Christmas baby.

afternoon all-ferrals-own ultrasound machine sounds good,i'd probably be hopeless at working it though,not very good with 21st century technology....mildez-how are you today ,feeling any better...snugglybean-christmas baby sounds good,i was working out my dates the other day & if ivf is successful,bub would be due around 22 dec,but i'm getting to far ahead of myself i suppose.

Matthew's Mum I have also worked out if I get pregnant (ok it would be a miracle) but if I do I will also be due 22/12/10. My last chance for a 2010 baby. Wouldn't it be a lovely end to the year to take a baby home? I am good by the way just :pray: this journey is almost over and I get pregnant soon. CD4 so very boring at the moment.

If this cycle is a no-goer, next cycle we'd be due on our wedding anniversary (28 December) which is nice, would stuff up a lot of our plans though, and we'd be stuck in Brissy for Christmas, couldn't go to Woodford, etc. So, of course, I feel that it will be the lucky cycle :rolleyes: I feel that our baby is waiting out there in the ether, and that it is the cheekiest thing ever! It's going to rock up in its own time, at the least desirable time possible (then no doubt whinge about its birthday as a teenager) and cause all manner of problems.

And it will all be worth it.

I have a tummy bug. I feel sooooo yuck, and I am quite sure I smell like poo. Should really get on to cleaning out my sewing room. Erk.

Hello lovelies,

Sorry I have not posted for a while but I realized I was actually getting behind in my work due to all the time I was spending keeping up with this thread (i'm a slow typer). Anyway, I have caught up all my notes and all my doctors reports and done all my filing (I'm such a good girl) so I am rewarding myself with 10 whole minutes on BB.

Snuggly- :ROFL: I'm sure you don't really smell like poo. I'm sorry you are not feeling well, maybe you should just rest up instead of trying to clean.

Ferrals- OMG a personal ultra sound is an excellent idea. I was not really happy about having to do IUI but I now so love having my injections and being able to go to the clinic and know exactly what my eggs are doing and exactly when I'm going to O down to the hour and not having to guess when or if I'm going to O it used to do my head in.

Murrycod - Whoo :dance: for the bt results hope the scan is showing nice big eggie ready to go so that Harvey can come out of the freezer. Hugely impressed by the personals to EVERYONE!!

Bons- sorry I missed the post when you joined our thread. I'm glad you found us, it is a beautiful supportive place. So glad AF has not kept you waiting, when you are done with her can you please send her my way. ;)

Alice- sorry you had horrid family stuff to go through. I often hear about you all having family drams and I think myself lucky it is just me, mum, dad and my brother, no one else to consider (or be upset/let down) by. You should borrow KitF's pram and give them a good ram in the shins.

THopes- :hug: sorry there is more pg people around you. People often dream of me pregnant so I hope it's as for telling as yours. I'm lucky most of the pg friends I have have had hard journeys too so I do not feel bad when they get their bubs. I do however seriously get the ****s when I know people who get pg in the first few months and can't even be bothered to quit smoking.

KitF- good luck with the bding :goodluck:

Ferrlas, TTCALC and Crafty express posting your some :bluedust: for your TTW.

Everyone else :hug:

AFM Okay see that's been 20 mins now (told you I was slow) and I still did not get to everyone. I am still waiting for AF its 4 weeks tomorrow since the D&C so I'm not really expecting her for maybe even 2 more weeks. I'm grateful for the break but still eager to get trying again. To all my fellow Twilighters please can you do a *spoiler alert* if you are going to talk about stuff from the next books/movies because I have not read them and want it to be a surprise. Went to see 'Remember me' last night, so good to see Edward finally getting some even if it wasn't with Bella :lol:

hello all

Snuggly could be a good sign maybe not a bug maybe morning sickness ! you never know, if not hope you feel better soon, I need to sort out my craft room too but tomoro is another day ( don't know where to start to be honest ) its a scrap and cardmaking room as well as a sewing room but you would think its a damn shop the amount of stuff I got in there oh but I do like to shop,
Busy knitting atm for my little man who is nearly 2 will be cool mornings and evenings soon !
Keeps me busy and sane anyways,

Murraycod yay for the scan we all thinking of you and be as crazy as you like, we all will be by the end of the month !

Ferrals think the home scan is a good idea I need one too ! after last month ovulating on day 19 or so and I know I misssed it but didn't realize I been ovulating so late ! thank good ness for cbfm today I did it on time and still low well it is day 8 so will let him rest a bit longer !

Matthewsmum your turn soon for egg picking how exciting ! and yes I need one of those
december babies if there is one spare !

Alice sorry your trip was not as nice as it could have been some people just don't know when to shut up ! hope you feel at peace soon and get your BFP.

spfairy whats the news did you have your scan yet ?

everyone else keep trucking along we will all get to move over real soon I just know it,

Girls, thank you for the well wishes, but as you all know, IVF can change from one day to the next.

My FET Cycle has been oficially cancelled.

As I had mentioned earlier, my left ovary feels like a party popper has gone off inside, well, I was right.
I have 4 follies on my left ovary, all above 22mm, and 1 follie on my right at 23mm.
Thats the funny part beleive me.
The crapy part is when I tell you that my Endometrium lining is only 4mm when it needs to be at minimum 8-9mm for a transfer.
My FS has no doubt in his mind that there is now way on gods earth my lining will be thicker within the week for the transfer, so there wont be one.

Yes the clomid did tricks when it came to producing the fattest strongest follies I have ever had (even that of my IUI cycles!!), but it didn't do any tricks to thicken up my lining...........................so,
I have to have a Trigger injection tonight of 5000iu of Pregnyl which will make me spontaneously ovulate my 5 juicy eggies.
My FS has advised me to abstain from Sex for the next 3 days incase I fall PG naturally at the risk of having 5bubbas.
I said to him, yeah right, like I would be lucky to even get 1, he laughed and said you have no idea how many people this has happened to.

After my trigger I should get AF within 2weeks MAX, and I have to ring FS 1st day of my period to start all over next month. With puregon instead of Clomid :lol: I had success with the 50iu of Puregon for the 3 IUI's I had with thickening my lining, so he wants to do that.

Soooooo, if you don't hear from me for the next 3 days, you know what I'll be doing :lol::shakehead: Shame!!!!! LMAO!!!!!

Sorry for lack of any persies, still trying to get my head around all of this, can't beleive it got cancelled!!

Crazy woman is now back in her box untill next month!!XX

Love to all XXX

That completely stinks Murraycod. Gee that would be hard to obstain especially when you think it hasn't happened for so long so why would it now! But if you did and it worked then you would have egg on your face. And potentially it could be bad. Shame it isn't an egg or two less. Even 3 I dont think I could obstain but 4-5 a bit different. FX the time flies by. I hate waiting so I feel for you. Shame on the clomid not thickening the lining.

Murraycod: Oooooh dilemma! I'm so sorry the FET cycle was cancelled :( But knowing that there's 5 lil eggies.....arghh! 2 would be good, lol. Let us know what happens (Even if it's *shock horror* against dr's orders!) You can sign up for snuggly's (and matthew's mum) christmas baby campaign too.

Sunbeam: Waiting takes sooo long. So basically AF can show up anytime from now on, that's kinda exciting, took me 6 weeks, but I agree that the break was good (in hindsight).

Crafty: I totally missed the egg last month too, sigh. So glad you've got the gizmo so you can be certain this month. And craft room's are meant to be messy! It's so you know they're used, lol.

Snuggly: I'm sorry your not feeling well, and that you think you smell like poo, it's not a nice suspicion to have, lol. I think a december baby sounds very inconvenient, so yep, that's when it'll happen. Just to make certain you could start doing some renovations or plan an overseas trip?

AFM: I worked out dates and if this cycle works and then baby sticks, it would be around the 13-20th Dec (cos I have no idea of my cycle length) and my cousin has made us all promise to have a big family christmas this year, so I'm hoping the bad timing will be the perfect lure for a baby. I had a teensy tiny meltdown last night and instead of BD'ing every second day, I've made DH promise to BD every night. I thought it might be too much pressure, but DH assures me he's totally ok with it, lol. As long as I promise not to put too much pressure on myself. We'll see how that goes. Had a bit of EWCM and some cramping today, so this could be the start of the week of ''Am I o'ing or not'' madness. Rock out. Love to everyone (specially murraycod!) xo

Oh, and today was the day I finally felt ok to put up my angel baby in my sig, I have a crystal dedicated to him (to me it was always a him) but haven't put it up yet, bit more time I think. I want it to be a happy memory, I'm grateful I was pregnant and that I got to talk to my baby and tell him all my dreams for him. Even though he couldn't stay.

murraycod-sorry your cycle was cancelled,harvey 2 will stay waiting until your lining is thicker for him/her to snuggle into ,let us know if you decide to risk multiples though...kitfairie-beautiful words about your bub.hugs to all

hey gals!
murraycod - ah baBe, sorry to hear that you didnt have better news today but its all about creating the best environment for bubs and if its not right, its not right! Hang in there, AF will be here b4 you know it and you'll be back into the swing of things one again!'

Mildez, Matthews mum, KitFaerie -Im praying for our Christmas baby too ladies! If we get our little one this time, then I would be due 4 December! PLease PLease PLEASE~!
SPF - ANy news lovely?

sorry not many persies, gotta fly xx

Hey murraycod, you could be the new Octomum! OK, so 5 would be scary as, but man, those kids would have plenty of supportive extra hands waiting to help them out! I'd come down to be your nanny (I have a bit of experience) and I'll be knocked up or feeding as well, so I can also be a wet nurse - it'll be just like Shakespeare. :lol: So if this FET cycle is cancelled, will they shift it to next month, or are you waiting longer? Might be a NYE baby for you! I totally loved your little synopsis on page 1, by the way. Awesome.

Sunbeam - cannot believe it is 4 weeks already. My life is starting to fly past. I guess that's pretty good for me. I hope you do get your AF.

crafty - Yeah, there's a bit of scrappety doo dah stuff inthere, but I'm not that into scrappery. SiL is, so I leave it to her. MiL is a quilter, and I'm a dressmaker. By hobby only. And I'm really funny about what projects I'll do. This one idiot friend of mine asked me to make her wedding dress (I made my onw and it was awesome) and at first I thought "maybe." She is really overweight (and just gets pregnant so she can hide behind her pregnancy, also in a bid to save her crappy relationship with a guy who runs up ridiculous amounts of debt on pokies) But she has been really rude lately, and last time I saw her complained about the fact she was having a boy. In front of me. Knowing my history. So now it's "no way." Hmm, long irrelevant story for you! Anyway, I'm having fun with my craft room.

Kit - angel baby is in and out of my sig. Sometimes I want people to know, sometimes I don't want the reminder, most of the time I'm just nto creative enough to come up with anything good (like now) How are you, anyway, gorgeous?

I have a sore back from being crouched over my spew bucket. Spew not yet forthcoming. Thinking that maybe I will test tomorrow, at 12 dpo. DH is with crafty and thinks it's not just a tummy bug. I don't have the runs or anything (who ordered TMI?) just really gassy and really would like to vom. It's fun and games at SnuggCentral tonight. Sent DH for beers cos I don't want him to be exposed to this. And I'm so sure I smell like poo.

Hi everyone,

I just want to start by saying BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP BFP. That's one for each of us :)

Can we please have them soon? And can I have one too? I don't want to be the last escapee. Actually, don't want anyone to be - lets have a mass bust out instead. OK!

MurryCod - :( :( :( bloody bloody bloody bloody. NOT fair to have so many fantastic eggs waiting and then have to cancel. I so know how your leftie is feeling lovely- it's no fun hatching that many eggs at once is it? And the feeling that the only way is down - oh boy, that's just such a low feeling :hug::hug: Try and keep your spirits up - I know how hard another delay can be but soon soon all will be good.

MatthewsMum - good to hear from you! You're getting close with your IVF journey too. Best of luck to you x

Kit - love to you and your angel baby x

Snugglybean - I'm betting you don't smell like poo (LOL) but you poor thing holding onto that bucket. I hope you're feeling better soon and when I'm finished with Kit's pram, you can have it for your 'friend' whose dress you have sensibly decided NOT to make! Good on you!!

Sunbeam - can't believe it has been four weeks already...glad you are feeling better in yourself and yep it was pretty much six weeks for me after the D&C. Sorry about the spoilers :redface:

Gotta get off the computer DH wants to look at something. Sorry for the quickie and thanks for your comments about my stupid SIL to be. I just have to get over that one - I think I was more upset for my niece.

Hi everyone - hugs, babydust and best wishes for the December Campaigners :) I hope I'm not far behind you all!

Alice x

PS Is anyone else not getting the emails to this thread? And I have to keep logging in each time I find it...weird.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to put my toe in the water after lurking for a while! I thought it was only fair as it has helped me to read about everyone's experiences. I lost my baby at about 12 weeks on 9/9/09. I started bleeding at 9 wks. Multiple scans kept showing all looked good (hb ok) then the baby died a couple of days before my 12wk scan. So glad I hadn't told everyone yet...Didn't mind people knowing about my miscarriage but I was glad I didn't have to 'untell' them about my pregnancy en masse and could do it in my own time.

Problems continued after my d&c. I kept bleeding for 3 wks. 2nd d&c. Kept bleeding and scan showed 'retained product' so i had a 3rd d&c in Nov (obgyn said little choice for me). I bled for another 6wks after that and only stopped in Dec (3mths after baby died) when i passed the last of the products of the pregnancy (sorry if tmi). Dr thinks I had a placenta accreta (placenta grew into lining of womb) which is why d&cs weren't successful. I was desperate to try again straight away but couldn't while bleeding. Then after so many procedures i was told to wait another 3 months.

So here i am... it's my EDD early next week and have just finished 1st mth TTC. No BFP but at least cycle seems regular.

Wishing you all the best of the luck you so deserve. Thanks for reading long post,

possum m

hey possum magic, sounds like you had a really tough time of it there. i can't imagine having to have 3 d&cs, you must be a very strong woman to go through all that. i lost my baby 2 weeks after you, so i know it has taken you a long time to get to this stage. i wish you all the best for your next pregnancy, and hope your bfp is not too far away x

Alice you can click on the link above in thread tools to subscribe to the thread, if it's not sending you e-mails.

snugglybean good luck testing. i know what you mean about "smells", last time i was really sick dh just said to me "you smell like ill and need bleaching", i will never forget that :)

KitFaerie, that is a big step you have taken. i know it was hard to add my angel to my sig.

murraycod that sucks big time. are you gonna even attempt to bd, or will you follow doctors orders? could you cope with 5 at once?!? i hope the Puregon increases the lining for your next attempt.

Sunbeam should not be too much longer now till you get af back.

ferrals4 maybe you do ovulate later than you thought. sounds like the herbals are a good thing, and good on dh for doing it too.

good luck T-hopes, Mildez, Matthew's Mum, and every one else i hope you get your december bubs :crossfingers: we are seriously in need of some bfps.

afm, just a quick note to say my scan went well. saw bub wriggling, and heart rate was 167. i am 9 weeks tomorrow, so i have made it further than last time (although i only found out at 12 weeks that bub had not survived past 8 weeks.)

Evening everyone

Well first murraycod I am so sorry the news was not so good but I would have to disobey
Doctors orders thats just the sort of person I am, well to be honest I was told not to have anymore kids after my 5th as I had such a dreadful delivery and retained placenta and so on and so on and so on, but I did disobey my Dr and have had 4 other babies since all with a few problems for me after the birth but my choice and my risk and it paid off for me, so I say WHO DARES WINS , So if you decide to go ahead then good on you but if not then you may always be thinking WHAT IF !
Sorry I regally am not much help here hey ! :lol:
spfairy wow so glad your scan went ok you are the same at my DIL she is 9 wks too, so I will be a Grandma when your little one is born ! oh how I wish I was a Granny UTD by then !
kitfaeri it sucks when you miss the egg hey and you know damn well you were shag***d out by the time you ovulated but there is just no way of knowing before not until the CBFM anyways worth the money I would say as I am not stressing as yet its not time for me to Bdance so I am so relaxed about it this month. First time in 6 mnths !

Possum magic Hello so nice to meet you ! you mc the week after me I was 12wks 5days and just had my EDD it was real scary the week leading up to it but the actual day was quite peaceful for me so I hope yours goes well, I had D&C and bled on and off for nearly 8 wks in all ended up taking vitex to try and get my cycle sorted and that just made me ill migrains and sickness and anyways have decided to just go natural and see how I go. Its very hard all this waiting after loosing a baby 6 mnths ago but there are plenty of us on here who know how you feel and some have waited longer ! Anyway welcome and nice to meet you !

Ferrals how you doing managed to do my test correctly today and at the right time ! won't forget again I can tell you. Seems you could be ovulating later than you thought too just like me and to think we didn't even know before the CBFM ! I hope your week is going well and you can smile in the mirror and say my DH will be so proud very soon when we get a BFP I have reserved a Dec baby for you also !:)

Well everyone else keep the positive vibes going we sure need some thanks Alice for sorting out just how many BFPs we need its a big number !

Baby dust to everyone and Murraycod please let us know what you decided to do ! ( as if we don't know ) I seen some really nice prams for Multiples !:dance:
