congratulations tut!!! Welcome to the world Charlie being an Aries is fabulous. March is a popular month my cousin had a little boy on the 24th and he's just perfect am so hoping this is my month too only a few more days til I can test. I must say have been very tired every day and have had very heavy breasts on and off but am trying not to be positive and hope we get a bfp this weekend if I can hold out. I did one test at 7 dpo and big fat negative but shouldve expected that it was only one week after O .
Someone had asked me what an opk was boble? Ovulation predictor kit. They really work and I recommend them.
Turned 38 yesterday and was spoil rotten by dh but couldn't help thinking not many years left of successful babymaking sometimes I wish I was 28 instead of 38!
Fifi woohoo not long now just remember to breathe goodluck
Babydust and stickyvibes to everyone hope this coming new month and this new thread brings lots of bfp's!
Girls I was going to do a poll on how long people waited after mc or D&C to TTC and see how many were succesful (but you can't do pols on this site) however I can across another thread which some of you had posted on and there were some success stories of conceiving before getting af back and having a healthy bub at the end. Have any of you heard bad stories such as people conceiving straight after a D&C but loosing the bub again? SO I am thinking we will just TTC as of next week... BUT than worried that we are supposed to wait ... Is there increased risk of miscarrying again if you don't wait? What the hell is the waiting for anyway???
How long did you all wait???
LORD I JUST WANT TO BE PG AGAIN AND HAVE HEALTHEY BUBS IN MY ARMS 9 MONTHS LATER!!!! Is that to much to ask??? If it is who else can I pray to???
Easha - Congrats on your scan! Really happy for you. You also give me hope as I also m/c in Nov 2007 and nothing since.
Tutmae - Congrats on the birth of little Charlie!
Mannie - Happy Birthday! Glad to hear you got spoilt and hope this is the cycle for your forever baby.
cherished - Sorry can't help with your questions as I had a natural m/c and we started trying straight away. I'm hearing you on the whole waiting thing though. Nothing like living your life in 2 week increments
charm - I've never had much luck with OPK's but I think that was just me and my bad timing rather than the tests themselves. Best of luck to you.
Shortcake - Hope AF is on her way so you can start TTC again.
Rhi - Sorry to hear about your great uncle
Jen - I think I recall smelly pencils when I was in primary school. Wasn't there smelly texters as well? When you think about it not a great invention for our kids to start sniffing things when they are that young Good work with the sewer line although I agree with cherished, should have been double time!
HannahD - How are you doing?
boble - I'm sure frozen yoghurt is 100% fat free!
sally - I hope AF arrives soon so you can start to TTC again and you feel like you are being proactive and have some control (as much as you can on this journey anyway).
smi - Yay - 20 weeks already!
fifi - Best of luck, very excited for you!
Big hugs to everyone I haven't mentioned (I think of you all often but being slack on persies today, sorry )
Sending heaps of babydust and stickyvibes for the new thread (think I am out of smilies).
AFM - Well, feeling a bit down today so sorry if I sound like a grumble bum. One of my friends is 13 weeks pg and she sent me an email today and attached her ultrasound pic. She doesn't know about us TTC or our m/c so I know it was not meant to be hurtful and although I am so happy for them, it just really, really hurts (iykwim). I would do anything to see that little picture on the ultrasound. My first and only u/s experience was an internal one as I didn't have a full bladder (damn hospital didn't tell me) and it was when they told me my baby was gone and all I could see on the screen was black. Something I will never, ever forget. Anyway enough whingeing. I will pick myself up and dust myself off and get ready to start all over again.
Sorry for the rant, just feeling really cheated at the moment. I know you all understand x
Mel - thanks for that (re the yoghurt) - it was yum!
I hear you honey on the feeling down. Im so sorry that your only ultrasound experience has been a horrible one. I hate that black screen! just not fair Next time you will see a gorgeous heartbeat flicking strongly on the screen
Cherished - wow, the similarities. My little BB twin
Regarding the question about waiting. My m/c in July I had to have a d&c. I was advised to wait one cycle, so I did - but it was just Hell waiting for that month to be over. Last m/c it was a natural m/c and once the spotting had stopped we got straight back to it - didn't wait at all as I had been told that they only tell you to wait so they can pinpoint a due date better.. so I desperately needed to start back to it getting my forever baby - but I am not sure if it is a definite requirement after d&c. I hope someone else is able to help answer your question I think i would have trouble waiting in any case.
Its not too much to ask hun and you will get there xx
Mannie - happy birthday - im glad you got spoilt
tut - congrats on your little girl - how exciting!
shortcake - i hope it is af on her way for you.. and i hope she is kind to you and gets out of the way quickly so you can get back to ttc
Jen - lol, you are right about the temping. It feels good getting back into it. I can't wait to see my lines moving along doing what they should be. I can't wait for O and to see the temp rise.. and hopefully stay up hehe
Rhi - sorry to hear about your uncle
AFM - well, i have started temping - yay! DH and I had a big chat last night and he asked me not to tell anyone, not even my online friends lol. I have real life friends on another forum, so once I explained that on BB they are all people "not in the real world" he was ok with it haha. I thought it was cute. He has been wanting me to get back to temping for a while now. I guess he likes being able to see things on the screen that he can understand iykwim - he feels part of it??? (more so then just the bd'ing stuff lol) when we woke up he even said "take your temp babe" how cute
AF is moving along quickly, which is great.. Im hoping she will be all gone in the next day or so - yay!
it is pouring rain here and we have a flash flooding warning... eek! I'm sure it will be ok - I am not in flood but my ex partner (and the house we own) are... if he needs my help to move stuff I will be there - last time I got a call at 2am in the morning and was there till sun up. It was very exhausting. Lets hope it doesn't flood! It will muck around with my temping :P
I hope everyone had a good Monday hugs and kisses - Bel
Hi Cherished,
I thought I had posted, maybe not.....
You are were I was 2 weeks ago and its such a hard decision cause so much is emotion!!!
I was advised by the ob that I could start TTC straight away, not af needed.
The fetal ab. Specialist said wait a cycle at least, but even suggested mutliple months.
First was Male, the specialist was female. DH thinks the male disregards maybe more of the emotional and the female regarded the emotional above the physical readiness.
SO....
I read and read and read anything I could get my hands on and their was no reason why you couldn't but your chance of a miscarriage is much more likely if you haven't had a AF.
Its based on the lining and how easily the baby can implant. The D & C 'strips you bare' to prevent infection so I do kind of get that....
We decided, after MUCH talking and stress, to wait a cycle.
Doesn't help now but my highly objective DH did say in 5 or 6 years time the month wont matter when we have beautiful kiddies running around.
Plus he said it would kill him to see me in that pain.
Each to there own,
you'll make the right decision for you!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Sally I knew someone would have more info than I currently have.... I was just telling DH 5 mins ago that I wanted to ttc straight away cause I couldn't find a reason not to but it does make sense dam it!!! OHHHHHHHHHHHHH IT IS SO HARD TO WAIT Your very objective DH sounds just like my DH... They are so sensible bless them
goodluck
... Is there increased risk of miscarrying again if you don't wait? What the hell is the waiting for anyway??? 
Good work with the sewer line although I agree with cherished, should have been double time!

Next time you will see a gorgeous heartbeat flicking strongly on the screen 
hehe
