craftymummy-i would poas,i was told you can drop an egg 2 weeks after loss,poas,good luck...
Hey Zstar thanks for keeping an eye on me i am doing ok i havn't thrown in the towel yet i am happy that your amnio was all clear it is a scarey wait for the result's i had a CVS and amnio both my results came back all clear because SLO is a genetic fault it diddn't show up now they now what to look for it would any way your comming up to 19 weeks wow how time fly's i remember what 19 weeks feels like i had a little belly and could feel her move quite a bit i had her to 19 weeks 5 days so halfway through a pregnancy not nearly long enough.
November is not to far away but i'm not real optimistic something is going on in my body my FS said my day 1 BT showed i was fertile and would ovulate early but today is day 12 and my opks are still neg and i havn't felt myself ovulate yet so much for being early i don't know what is going on this has never happened i always feel myself ovulate between day 11 and 14 and my opk's always show a really strong line from day 10 so i think i will miss out on November i am gearing myself up for a sorry you can't start your ivf cycle from the pgd nurse that way i wont fall to pieces when it doe's happen.
Mathewsmum-i went to lunch today with my best friend who is now over due we went and had a sticky beak at baby clothes and baby bits and bobs and it was hard at times i thought i would love to buy that for abbi she would be 8 weeks old now there was beautiful girls clothes i don't know why i put myself through it maybe i was trying to prove to myself that i can be strong and look at that stuff and be ok with it truth is i wanted to throw a spaz yell and demand to someone to give me my girl back it sux and i hate it so i just said isnt it cute and kept walking it is hard isnt it.
Craftmummy-cant hurt to check.
Wow, I get busy for a couple of weeks and I have 7 pages to catch up on here... I made a few notes for personals, sorry if I miss anyone.
craftymummy--you were asking about OPKs and pricing. Here in the US, I get the Answer brand 20-pack. They're tiny little sticks, and the instructions say don't try to use them past 30 days from opening the tube, but I haven't had any problems with them "going bad." I just make sure the tube is sealed airtight after I pull out the little stick, and thus I'm set for up to 3-4 months. (My cycle is regular enough that I only have to test from about day 13 to 16.) I don't know if that brand is available in Australia, but it's worked for me. I've gotten positive O results from them before.
loopielouie, I'm sorry it's a reminder when people nearby are pregnant. Hang in there.
Loubee, emmas_mum, mummyof4, emmy83, welcome to the group. I'm sorry for the losses that brought you here, hopefully you can find good support from everyone.
ferrals, sorry about the difficulties with IVF this month, I hope things look up soon.
murraycod, congrats on IUI going well! Hang in there during the TWW, it seems to go forever.
coco, I'm sorry for your pain as the due date came and went. I'm not looking forward to that day for myself, hopefully I'm pregnant by then and it'll go a little easier that way.
AFM, I saw my OB a week ago for the annual checkup. He says if I'm not pregnant by January he wants me to go to an infertility specialist. (It took 18 months to conceive before the lost pregnancy, and I'm not getting any younger.) As soon as I get a BFP, I'm supposed to call him and he'll put me on progresterone and a low dose aspirin regimen to help avoid problems this next time around. It looks like he'll take my concerns for problems seriously and do what's necessary to get a good outcome. My blood pressure has been higher than it should, so I'm seeing a family practice doctor on Monday to address that issue.
I hope all is well for everyone trying this month, it'd be nice to see some BFPs. :)
Evening ladies, hope everyones week is going well. Still not really any time for full persies tonight but ill try and get onto it real soon
Murraycod that is great news about the IUI, good luck and hopefully you'll be posting a BFP in roughly 2 weeks
Craftmummy, if that was me i would definately POAS. Like ferals said it cant hurt, :crossfingers: that you'll be posting a BPF soon too.
Hello to everyone else, is anyone in the 2ww? Good luck to those who are testing shortly
AFM I suppose im just waiting for AF to show up as im pretty certain i missed BDing at O time this month. When i got home we definately made up for having seen each other for 3 weeks but unfortunately i think it was 3 or 4 days to late bugger. So anyway i think AF will be here in the next couple of days and then looking forward to starting to TTC again next month.
Talk soon ladies
I'm having a "can't handle it" day.... must be Thursday :rolleyes: the hardest day of my week. Always has been, don't know why.
Nothing else to report. SVN slow news day here...
Someone get a BFP and perk me up!
How exciting Murraycod!!! Be patient, the time will fly quicly!!
Snugglybean.... Thursdays are always hard for me too.... it drags cause the weekend is not too far away. SVN is a bit slack, better sack the owner!! Hehehe
Eliselouise.... alway seems to happen when your away. We went camping when I was due to O and it is very hard when the camper trailer guy ropes move with every movement!! Luckily for us the wind came up and they were moving on their own anyway!
Crafty Mummy.... I would POAS, it would put your mind at ease either way.
And I'm curious... the scan to see what your eggs are doing, the clouding over when your about to O (like what murraycod was talking about), is that by ultrasound or internal scanning? I think its amazing that they can tell you all this stuff!
AFM... nothing to report really. Going to FS on Tuesday to see if I O, dont think I did. Might have a look into the Vitex stuff, can you buy it at chemists or health food shops? I really think I'm out of whack, with my long cycles and all.
Hello all,
Well hope your day is going ok and your all feeling good,
snugglybean sorry your having a bad day we all get those I see a women at the school my kids go to and she is pregnant the same wks as I should have been comming upto to 20wks and its so hard seeing her every day with a growing tummy and mine still empty,
Just think of your coming trip to Japan and maybe go out a buy something new for your trip make you feel better !
Matthews mum and ferrals after my better judgement I went ahead and POAS and sure enough I knew it would be a BFN so back to the drawing board think im going crazy ! still there is always next month when my OPK stiks finally arrive at least I will know if I am O but I am so scared of finding out my days are over and no more eggies left ! thats one reason why I won't go to the GP I guess don't want to be told ( sorry love no more ovulating for you )
Murraycod hope your ok only 12 more days to wait until you POAS and then maybe we will get a BFP this month !
:pink-babydust::bluedust::pink-babydust::bluedust: TO ALL THAT NEED SOME !
Big Hellos to everyone!
Looking forward to seeing a lot of BFP's start to roll in over the coming month.
Snugglybean - Im sorry you are having a hard day. I hope it gets better for you.
Murraycod - Fingers crossed for your BFP this month. Was great to see you got the go ahead with it. Hope the next 12 days fly by for you!
Ferrals - November is just around the corner for you. Hope all goes well!
Eliselouise - Im glad you have had a relaxing month and taken the pressure off a little. I found that helped me too. Good luck for ttc next month.
Bookworm - Its so good you have an OB thats being proactive and that you have a plan. Lets hope you get that BFP real soon and dont need to see any specialists.
Coco - I hope you are doing ok!
Zstar - Wow your pregnancy is really moving along now. Hope you are feeling well and enjoying it.
AFM - I am now 10 weeks. Have had small amounts of spotting (brown & red) at least once a week every week since i got my BFP but have now had 2 scans and everything is going along perfectly so far. Its scary every time it happens as last pregnancy there was spotting and then the m/c. Its good to know that it doesnt always mean the end.
I cant wait to see some more good news in here!
Sorry i know i have missed some people...
:bluedust: to everyone!
maddison - just what I wanted to hear! glad it is going well for you. i'm smiling now...
Loopylouie-vitex can be brought at health food shops or naturopaths.
Craftmummy-maybe a bit early yet.
Maddison- good to hear from you and i am happy all is well with your bub.
Snugglebean- it must be thursday's i struggled all day at work on the verg of tears you know when you can't even look at someone cause you will burst into tears my day started with a txt from my best friend to say that her waters broke and the baby would be born today then when i was at work a workmate told me the his ex partner who has 5 children to different men and left him after their son was 6mths old and fell pregnant with her 6th after a one time brief encounter with my work mate on an access visit with his son is having a girl so that was enough to send me to the toilet for a cry then to top it off another friend who has 2 children 1 to ivf and another natural told me she is 3 mths pregnant and she is 39 and not sure she really want's to have another baby so that tipped me over the edge now i am at home waiting for a txt to tell me what she had and my cow of a SIL is due tomorrow so i am feeling really down today i want to go to bed and forget the whole day.
Ferrals :hug: I find it hard hearing about other's pregnancies also except its everyday not just thursdays. I am fine unless I go shoping etc or go to work (hard to get away from it as Im working as a midwife) and my DH's family seem obsessed with talking about who is UTD. My family know abit better then that. Went shopping with MIL today who had to point out the gorgeous little baby things. Just had to get away from her to pull myself together.
Thinking of you all and :pray: to be reading about your BFP's.
Me I am really worried about another ectopic. The more I read the more I realise how likely it is. I hate google sometimes but can't keep off it.
Hello Lovelies !!
Yeah Thursdays suck, have not been looking forward to today, my official EDD, to top it off, I had to endure attending a work morning tea to celebrate 2girls last day at work they on Maternity leave, and I felt left out..
But DH gave me the best pep talk when I got home, which has made me feel positive and happy. Apart from the morning tea bit, have been ok, preocupied I guess.
Matthew'sMum happy "O" days for you!!! Better go do some more :tmi: to make sure it's all good!
Sparkles how did you go with temping thismorn? Did you get a temp rise yet? I could never work my OPK's out.
Ferrals you need a big hug :hug: Youre doing well babe, and you survived another day, may it be only just, but you did XX
I so loved your advice with the HPT Stick that was awesome......and to think you actually have sat there and thaught that up at some stage!!! Classic!!!! I promise I have no Sticks at all, I figure if it works or not, the BT wont lie to me. Because I have had fake positives poas because of the Pregnyl inj, and my body tells me huge porkies! XX
Craftymummy I had the biggest sneezing fit last evening, and so remembered what you posted!!! Have you ever tried sneezing and holding your pelvic floor at the same time.............impossible, I almost wet my pants............and don't laugh cuz your fault!!!!!:lol: So funny though.........
Bookworm good news your OB has a plan for you. And hope you can get that B/P down X
Snugglybean---Love you hun, hope tomorrow is better.
Loopylouie the scans I have are Internal Ultrasounds....Horrible things they are. Sure a man invented them. They don't hurt, but are VERY uncomfortable and Invasive...
Zstar good news about Amino, and thankyou Maddison for dropping in :bellyrubs:
Thank You everyone for the support shown, you are all great ladies XX
Carftymummy everything hit me last night....seriouse, I woke having the most shocking pains in my left side at 2am,radiating through to my lower back. Would swear it was AF!! Have been dull crampy all day. But atleast I know somethings happening down there! X
I have anoth 1500 iu Pregnyl inj on Saturday, so that has gone fast already!
Emmy83, Ric, ScaryPinkFairy, mummyof4, Coco, and everyone I missed, have a great evening, and hope tomorrow is a good day XXX
Love you all XX

( i wish that looked remotley how i want it to sound, but i am really sure taht you girls know what i mean... and i really hope that you do too if you read it SIL lol)
AFM Well we have officaly started TTC. I dont really know much about anything cause we have not done the active TTC before just kinda counted days and went oh i O on day..... but this time i am a little more antsy and i want to get my BFP NOW!!!! so where do i start?

Eliselouise - hope you relaxed now and ready to start ttc soon and fresh.
With me, i "O" yesterday, and we did our part so now its all wait and wait and wait and wait and more wait... and finally TESTING for BFP..........
Afternoon ladie's today is a better day i did my OPK early today and it was still neg so i went to see my acupuncturist(spelling) and went over possible reasons for my high estrogen and not feeling myself ovulate last month which has never happened before anyway she did some extra things to me to help destress and gave me extra needles to bring on ovulation by the time i got home this arvo after picking up the kids i have have slight period type cramps so i went and done 2 more OPKs and got a real strong positive line on both so thank god my body is working right on que so much for the FS saying i will ov early i am on day 13 so i should ov tomorrow what a shame we have to avoid getting pregnant until this next BT but i am happy that i am back on vitex and my body seems to be doing what it is supose to do.
My best friend still hasnt had her baby yet her waters broke yesterday and nothing yet so they are inducing her this arvo i have to be strong and handle it she was there for me when i lost abbi.
Ric-good luck in the TWWi hope it flys and you get that BFP.
To all my other BB ladie's i will be back later.
Hello, all, sorry I don't have a lot of time to post tonight. I'm trying to distract my brain during the TWW, so I'm going to curl up in bed with a good book until DH gets home from work. I hope all is well for you all, crossing my fingers for good news for everyone.
Ok, I'm guilty of stalking. :redface: Just to make sure you're going ok, chick :hug::
I know exactly what it's like, too & I've been trying to decided what's worse since your angel flew... Watching other belly's grow while mine didn't, or having people watch my belly grow while they mourn over theirs not growing...
_______
:heartbeat:Our Angel, Jayvan 11/12/2009 17 weeks & 6 Days
hey everyone i have been having a tough few days too :(
i thought i was developing an infection as i had a fever and felt really ill last night. we went to emergency department and we waited there for 2 hours and gave up. people there had been waiting 4 hours and no-one was being called in. i decided i would be better off tucked up in bed. i went to docs today and she gave me antibiotics in case i do have an infection. on top of that, my bleeding has increased. just feels like nothing else can go wrong.
also, at work i deal with failed pregnancies, we do the testing for them, as well as amnios and cvs samples. we don't normally get them but today we got a 13 week fetus and i went to pieces :(
i feel almost bi-polar. happy one minute crying the next. i just want to get off this emotional roller coaster.
sorry no persies
Thanks everyone. My work has been uber-stressful lately, it sorta sucks, but ti'salso keeping me relly busy, and will help keep the next 8 weeks flying along. When we first heard it, waiting 6 months felt like forever, but we're pretty much there already! Yahoo!
SPF - my bleeding was not much for first four days, then increased rapidly. I went through calling the hospy too, MIL wanted me to go straight up there, but I stayed home and kept an eye on it, it was fine.
Ferrals - you can get through this. You've already shown the world that you're stronger than you ever imagined. Getting through this is going to be fine, you'll be fine, you know you can do it.
In other news - got pretty drunk this evening, was walking home and bumped into my Dr. Drunk. A little embarrassing! Actually, she's the kind of Doc who might have been a little bit proud to see me out and about. She knows me fairly well. I will never forget her dropping the f-bomb down the phone to the hospy to try and get me in sooner for the d & c. lol.
Have a good weekend everyone!
Thats cool! i will let you stalk! lol:
i think pregnancy loss just sucks for everyone.
spf- i hope everything is ok, sounds like you know what you should be watching for, and hopefully the anti b's help with everything
AFM i spent the day arguing with the Drs cause no one would give me my baby's post mortem results. I am going in tomorrow to ge tthem now... its like this whole thing isnt hard enough, thye have to go and make it a little bit harder..
( are we allowed to talk abut other stuff in here or just TTC)
Well i hope everyone else is ok... and getting lots of action so to speak :lol:
Mummyof4-we got a preliminary autopsy report at our 2 week check up after having abbi which gave us a list of all the abnormalities from head to toe we were told the final autopsy reults would not be final for 4-5 months and the geneticist at the royal north shore said the preliminary results gave them an idea of what to test for geneticly and that would take 6-10 weeks we saw her the 10th of june and got the definate diagnosis of SLO so from the 20th of march until june 10th was almost 3 months i have not asked for the final results of the autopsy as everthing was written in the first and that was pretty traumatic seeing everything that was wrong with my girl but i had to know i needed an answer and i knew i made the right decision it was the DNA we were waiting on to be sure and unfortunetly thats why i am here now waiting on PGD IVF so don't count on a final answer just yet but as you said they think it was a problem with the placenta don't they if so you might get your results a bit quicker.
SPF-sorry you are having a tough time working where you do it must be hard the way i try to look at it is that it is natures way of preventing these poor little babies from be born disabled into this hard and somtimes cruel world they go to a better place i think of if abbi had made it what type of life would she have had being tube fed in a in a wheelchair with no clue to the world around her it would have been existing not living i like to believe they are in a better place.
My friend still hasnt had her baby hospital was to busy to induce her last night so they are supose to be doing it this morning (i hope ) i would have gone off my nut by now.
ferrals - that has been a long time for your friend. hope she has her baby soon. then it's your turn next :) and thanks ferrals, i know it's natures way and have to keep reminding myself of that.
mummy of 4, hope you get the results you are after soon, so you can put start afresh. even though i work in the field i do i didn't get any tests done on my baby. there must have been something wrong and that's all i keep telling myself.
as for talking about other things, well i think we all do and i figure it is part of ttc. i think part of ttc is being emotionally ready and talking through things on here helps a lot i find.
snugglybean how funny getting drunk and seeing your doc. at least you are still able to go out and enjoy yourself. she probably was happy for you. yeah 8 weeks is not long, maybe we'll be belly buddies ;) lol
just feeling a bit sorry for myself atm. and it doesn't help with my mom ringing me up asking if i want to keep my womb. of course i do, but also don't want to keep thinking things are wrong if they aren't. i still have abdominal pain, but only had the d&c monday. can anyone remember how much pain they had and for how long? i'm on antibiotics now and doc said just go to emergency if i start passing clots. today bleeding is less, so that's good. just slightly concerned by the pain.
Morning Ladies
Well seems its been a bad week for some with emotions I mean and me too ! I guess its the roller coaster ride we are all on its so easy to pretend we are getting over losing a baby but when it comes down to it we only fool ourselves ! greif has to come out and the longing to fill our empty wombs will not go until they are full again ! life is hard at times but we have to get into a positive frame of mind and strive to get what we want however long or whatever we have to do to get it !
Thanks to all who asked about me. I am ok I guess still no answers really no AF and no sign of O so I wait and wait, Went and got myself some VITEX on Thurs so have been taking that and the women in the Herbal shop said it should sort me out with my cycles she said I just need a kick start so :crossfingers: it does it sooner rather than later. Just feel so cheated all this 7 weeks trying and trying and a waste of time ! I guess I have to face the posibility that my days are over ! but not without a FIGHT FIRST !
spfairy I had really bad pains for around 36 to 48 hrs I mean really bad taking voltarol/Naproxen or whatever you call it over here as well as Paracetamol. I found a hot water bottle or gel pack really helped ease the pain. Then it began to ease into a normal AF type cramp but all in all was about a week to 10 days before I was pain free. My emotions were really bad one minute up and the next down so thats just your hormones IM afraid getting back to normal :hug: not too much longer I promise !
Ferrals4 and mummy of 4 your strength is amazing and will get you through this time in your life and you will look back on it in years to come and wonder how you did it with your little one running around smiling and realize life sucks at times but it does give rewards to those who wait and beleive !
Everyone else hope your ok and keeping positive those who have a TWW the days are passing by lets get some BFPs in here !
Well thats about all sorry if its a bit too much me me me but friday was a really bad day for me and seeing that women at school every day is really hard for me !
Have a good weekend and :pink-babydust::bluedust::pink-babydust::bluedust: TO ALL THAT NEED IT !
She just had a boy she was induced at 7am so it went pretty quick it is her third boy Hunter james anyway i feel fine about it i wont go and see her for a while i will get there when i am ready.
Not sure about D&C pain afterward's i had a termination at 7 week's a looooooooooooong time ago when i was young and the pain after that was like period cramps if you dont feel right go to the hospital for peace of mind.
thanks craftymummy9 and hopefully the vitex will give you the kick start it needs. i think that brown discharge you had at around 4 weeks post d&c was your period. so you should be due another one in the next week or so. are you sure you have not secretly o?
ferrals well at least now you can prepare yourself to go and see your friends bub. i know it's hard, the week i went back to work so many people bought their babies in that were on mat leave. i thought i was in a creche. you will get there.
just off to see my friend who is also on mat leave... see how i go
Craftmummy-we must have posted about the same time did you look up vitex on the net it looks and sounds real promising dosn't it i fell pregnant the month after i started taking it and i think i mentioned before my best friend was trying for 18 months and then went on vitex and was pregnant the 2nd month on it and had her baby today so i hope it works for you did you get the tablets or the liquid? the liquid is supose to work quicker.
As you can prob tell i am not working today hubby is so im having a sex and the city marathon day and im googling everything on estrogen, ivf,fsh levels you name it im googling it.
Hi everyone,Ric,Murraycod,Bookworm & anyone else in the tww,hope your finding something to occupy your mind for at least some of the time...Scarypinkfairy-hope your bleeding has stopped & antibiotics are kicking in.Your job must be emotional at the best of times,thank you for doing it though as it helps give people answers sometimes...Mummy of4-hope you get some answers & that it gives you some comfort,at the time of my loss i didn;t have testing done & now i think maybe if i did it might of brought some comfort as i still have overwhelming thoughts of guilt...Craftymummy-Yeh we'll put up a good fight 'best things in life are worth fighting for'.Sorry about the Mum at school,it's hard when we just can't avoid things or people.Last time i was pregnant another Mum from kindy gym was too we were a couple of weeks apart so our pregnancies became a big part of talk,when i lost mine i couldn't go back,my husband took ds4 for the last part of the year.
Hi ferrals4
Yep I googled it and googled it and it looked so good I just had to give it a try, and when I went into the herbal shop and told her I had MC 7wks ago and had no real AF and was 44 she said to go for it and warned me I may get twins ! well that would be a bonus but I just want the one thanks ! anyhow thanks to your help I am on my 3rd day of vitex and she told me pronatal was a good alternative to the natures own pre conception support vitamins I was on so IM on them as well. I am taking the tablets as she didn't have the liquid and I was too impatient to go elseware ! WARNING :tmi: GOT A SHOCK THE NEXT DAY MY PEE IS BRIGHT GREEN LOOKS LIKE TOXIC LIQUID !
anyhow if this vitex works for me is it safe for me to take it when I conceive as in before I get a BFP ? just that its confusing on the net , infact the net can be quite upsetting as I was on a forum about vitex a women was 39 and asking about using it to aid her fertility and the reply was ( women of that age should not expect to be getting pregnant at all, if they need help its natures way of saying your too old ! ) Well you can imagine I am 44 and have had 2 kids in my 40s already so it upset me a bit, guess what I am trying to say is the NET is not always good for us !
Anyhow thanks again for your advice, and as for your freind who just gave birth is that the one that tried for 18mnths ? if so she really did deserve to get a good outcome didn,t she and you will soon !
Hi matthews mum
we must have posted together ! Thanks for the support its what keeps us all going and no matter what anyone tells us we are going to get what we want !
Guess you are on the TWW soon, know idea when I will be maybe I will just get a big suprise without the wait !
keep well and keep trying ! :dance:
Craftmummy-it is fine to take until you get your BFP and yes my friend who had the baby today was put on it by her naturopath after 18 mths of trying for her 3rd baby and she took it until 6 weeks as she was having some spotting so they told her to stay on it a bit longer.
Thank God It's The Weekend!!!!!
Hi Girl's XXXX
Teagz that was a really nice thing for you to post XX
ScaryPinkFairy that must have been a hard comment to swallow what your Mum said babe, your job must be a hard one too. Interesting but hard.........
Hope your feeling better and the weekend is a happy and relaxing one X
Snugglybean good work, I hope you had 1 drink for each of us ;)
Mummyof4 chat away we will read and respond to anything that will keep our minds buisy ATM!!!
Ferrals that was lovely advice you posted earlier about the 'Angel' topic. I really do agree with you. I comfort myself in knowing that Nature took my Angel for a good reason, and glad she was the one that had to make that decision. Because I would not have been able. And it wouldn't be fair for my Darling Angel X
November is not far away now!
Craftymummy love the attitude I hope it rubbs off on me a bit. As SPF said, we are on the Bipolar Rollercoaster, and I wanna get off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sparkles, Bookworm, Ric ,Crafty, anyone else in the dreaded TWW with us??
Ric Nov5th is the big day, but both times past I have gotten AF before the BT........
Me, 4DPIUI, still crampy today but eased a lot from the past few days. Had my 1500iu Pregnyl inj thismorning and stung like a BIAAATCH!!!!!
Had a 1st birthday to go to at lunch, and have a 40th tonight, guess who the designated driver is...............yay!
Have a nice weekend all XX
HI guys
sorry this is going to be a relativly selfish post
i got my re****s today... i have to say if anything it has made it all so much harder. There was nothing wirng with me, there was nothing wrong with Kyarna, there was nothing wrong with my placenta... THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG... i am so angry and hurt and sad.
the report did however point out how traumatic her birth was and she had a few things happend to her little body after her death because of her birth. quick story, my cervix closed halfway through labour and Kyarna was stuck half in and half out. Her little arm had come away from her body due to this. I am so angry because i knew i saw it and the midwife lied to me. she may have been doing what she thought was best but i knew what i saw and i asked her about 6 or 7 times and she lied to me EVERY time... i thought i was going crazy, that i was seeing things and it was just her lieing to me..
so yeah thanks for all who gave me your wishes, but they didnt help this time.. i just really cant understand why my perfect little girl had to die, when i did everything right... i know logicaly that it wasnt my fault but i just cant help thinking maybe i could have done it different..
oh mummyof4 that is not the news you were expecting. but maybe there was some genetic fault that they could not pick up. usually only chromosomes are done, and this does not find genetic defects only large structural rearrangements or trisomies, that kind of thing. and some parts of a placenta can be normal and other parts abnormal, so it depends which part of the placenta the sample was taken (confined placental mosaicism). don't mean to bore you but just because these tests came back normal there may have been a real reason, just might need a lot of investigating to find the reason.
i am sure there was nothing you could have done differently. and the midwife should not have lied to you. you know what you saw, and she should have told the truth. babies that small are very fragile and it was unfortunate that this happened and must have been very traumatic experience for you. i can only hope you are doing ok :hug:
murraycod that injection sounds awful, hope it does the trick. you really are a brave lady!!!
:hug:Mummyof4, have Pm'd you X
mummyof4.... sorry to hear your news. The midwife should've been truthful but she was probably trying to make the situation easier for you... but still shouldn't have done it. I hope you are ok.....
Scarypinkfiary.... I had quite a bit of pain on what felt like the surface of my tummy (everything felt normal internally). I couldnt touch or bump into things as it would be very uncomfortable. It did go away but not for nearly 2 weeks. But I did have the whole wax and polish (3 holes in my stomach area). I'm not sure what a D&C entails. Sorry if I didnt help... all new to the lingo on here.
Hope everyone is doing well this weekend.
Hello All! I just got back from my holidays last night and thought I would pop on to say hi. There are soooo many posts though to catch up on, I just skimmed through them a little, I still need to go back and read through them properly.
Well I had a great time on my trip but I am really happy to be home, especially since I am supposed to ovulate in the next few days and I didn't want to miss it. I was so positive this was my month but sadly AF arrived while I was away. It was the strangest cycle I've ever had though. I had 5 days of barely there spotting, then a day of nothing and then just as i was getting really excited AF showed up 2 days late. She was pretty good though, not as heavy as normal and left after only 3 days (5 is normal for me).
I've been really sick the last few days (nausea and extreme fatigue) so my sister thought I might be PG after all, but I'm pretty sure it was just a stomach bug as M/S would not have set in so quickly, and I did have a period. Thankfully I'm feeling much better today as we have to stat BD tonight. There is still a week left in October and I still have good feelings about his month.
During my quick scan of posts I read someone has started taking Vitex. I have very mixed feelings about Vitex. When I was trying for DS I took Vitex and Dong Quai during my 7th month of TTC and fell PG that cycle. I was sure that they were the reason I got PG. I did have a lot of issues with bleeding during my pregnancy and got put on bed rest a few times for "threatening M/C" though thankfully DS made it through all right.
When we were TTC for #2 I was still nursing so I could not take either drug. During our 7th month of TTC for #2 I weaned my son and started on Vitex and Dong Quai again and sure enough I got PG that cycle. Again I had issues with bleeding, though sadly that PG ended in M/C.
I decided again this last cycle to try again with the two meds but this time it didn't work for me. I did some reading online into both meds and there is a lot of mixed info out there. Some sites talk about them increasing fertility and others talk about them increasing your risk of M/C or even using DQ to end pregnancies. So I decide to try without this month. I can't decide if I should try them again if this month doesn't work out. The sites that said they were a M/C risk scared me.
Maybe it was just the 7 month mark that was lucky for me, but I really hope I don't have to wait that long!! The funny thing is that DH and I started TTC#2 back in January in the hopes of having an October baby (I've always love the idea of Halloween themed Birthday parties since Halloween is my favourite day of the year) and now January is only 2 more months away. Maybe I'm meant to get PG in January?
Sorry about that, I kind of rambled on and on and on.
Morning all,Mummyof4-Sorry the results didn't give you any answers to why this happened to you & your family,it's all horrible unfair,hugs.
Mummyof4 I am so sorry that the results didn't provide any information on what happened to Kyarna and the midwife no telling you the truth.
Twin Sister I hope you had a wonderful holiday. I too fell pregnant the cycle after I weaned my DD. I think the BF must have been hibiting something as then I fell pregnant the third cycle after my m/c with the ectopic when it took me 9months to concieve the first m/c.
Nothing to report. I am on O day today but can't act on it. Hopefully next month we will be back in action or about to see the FS about IVF. Ill know either way in 25days and counting.
