HUGE MASSIVE GIANT CONGRATS LYSNDAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im sending you LOADS AND LOADS of sticky vibes. Please do stalk... I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy!
hi all,phebee-congratulations!!!lysndan-congatulations!!!how is everyone else??afm-my ivf transfer was a bfn,so i'm doing a natural cycle this time round,getting some 'o' signs,so be getting busy soon...
first time posting on this site but thought now that I can try again after waiting two cycles the support might do me some good .... I dont know all the 'short cuts' or the abbreviations but will give this a go...
I have had two MC and with the last a D&C and was told I needed to wait 2 cycles before trying again. Just finished the second and should be hitting O in about 10 days or so, will start testing Wednesday. I dont do temp charts etc but use Maybe Baby spit test which has worked for me in the past.
I am very nervous to start trying again... very nervous to get AF disappointment and even anxious if I do fall pg will I be walking on egg shells throughout the entire pg???? I really thought the last pg would stick and was in total shock when it I lost my angel. The whole way through the pg was so strong I had no concerns after I saw the heart beat at 6w...
Has anyone gone through this with their 3rd try? any advice?

As you can see from my sig this is our 9th month of TTC. Long story short, we only have a 1 in 20,000 chance of conceiving naturally, but last month we had a little miracle. I got a BFP! But then several days later I had a mc at around 5wks. It was my second mc, I also have severe PCOS & elevated ANAs so I know it's not an easy road for us, and our DS was an IVF/ICSI bub. But for a few days there it was rather exciting.
So now we're back on the TTC wagon yet again and judging by my temp & OPKs, the next 24-48hrs or so should be the big "O". So I'm faced with the big do I or don't I...
I know I should probably wait at least one cycle, but then I think I don't really want to "waste" another little eggie since we've already been going so long and our chances are slim... but then again I think "do I really want to go through this all over again" and oh I am just so confused!
Gah! It's all so difficult! If anyone in here has a crystal ball could they please pass it my way???
BOC - just jumping in from stalker land (I'm not here anymore, but this was my saviour thread for a while). I'm so sorry for your loss - I hope you're giving your DS lots of hugs - I found DS made it so much, well, easier isn't the right word, but you know what I mean. There's no reason to wait a cycle if you've had a natural m/c. There's some evidence that shows increased fertility for the first few months after a m/c. Doesn't mean it will happen, but certainly no reason to wait! If it helps, we were pg after one normal period following a m/c. A sticky one too (). As I said, it doesn't mean it WILL happen - but it's worth a try! Good luck, I'll be stalking
Silver Bell - I know I'm a bit late now in posting. I just want to give you my condolences over your m/c. I sincerely hope that you conceive again very soon and have a happy and healthy pregnancy. I have had only had 1 m/c which happened not long after I stopped taking the pill and that has been the only time I've ever fallen pg. The thought of falling pg again and not knowing if it will be a successful pg terrifies me but I know that it is worth the effort.
BOC - I am keeping my fx for you that you have success in your journey TTC. All you can do is continue to try
I had an early m/c in March of this year. We have been trying to conceive again since with no luck so far. I've had 2 AFs since and now it has decided to disappear on me and I have no idea why. I'm 2 weeks late and I've had 3 BFNs and with no symptoms of pg so I know that we haven't gotten lucky with it yet. I'm going to see my GP to have some tests run sometime during the next week but until then I'm left to wonder what my body is doing and why.
To be honest it hasn't been easy for me since my m/c and both my DH and I aren't coping too well. At the moment we're living in hope that it will be our time soon and comfort ourselves in thinking that we had a m/c for a reason. Maybe the baby would have been sick and it was better for my body to have let it go naturally and early.
ok time to stick my head in and say HI
Long time no see but lately just havent had the heart to come on BB.
Just quickly my knee op went well, healing slowly but shorly.
Congrats to those with BFP and to those new, I hope your stays are short and we all get the BFP one day soon.
I am in the exact same position as Silver Bell. I have had 2 MC (8 wks, Dec 2010 and 11.5 wks, May 2011) and a friend recommended I have a look at Belly Belly.
We have been ttc since June 2010. I have been very encouraged by reading your comments. I have found that MC is something that not many people talk about. As with everyone else, I have found it so difficult! Our first baby would have been due last Tuesday and my bro announced he and his partner are pg on Wednesday with their 3 child. As happy as I am for them, it still hurts.
Thank you for this site. It's just what I have been needing.
We have started trying again, and we have 1 week left to find out, but I am doubtful this month.
I wish I wasn't here but alas I am. I went for my 12 week scan on Thursday to find out that my baby had stopped growing at 6 and a half weeks. I was going to have a d and c but within hours of making thar decision my body started to miscarry naturally. I feel a bit funny joining here seeing as I only miscarried on the weekend but after speaking with my doctor this morning about what happened she has pretty much confirmed for me that it is over and now my body will repair and recover over the coming weeks. I feel a new sense of calm I guess and am now looking to the future. I'm so desperate to be pregnant again and will wait till after my first cycle to try again. I just hope it is not a long one for me. Another part of me feels as though I'm betraying the baby I lost by wanting another so quickly but I guess both feelings are normal.
Is it okay for me to join even though I'm technically not TTC yet but waiting for my cycle to settle? I just don't want to be dwell in my miscarriage thread, it's too hard to stay in my belly buddies and I'm not really pre TTC. Let me know if I'm not in the right place yet.
I am so sorry for you loss! I am sure, words cannot express how you are feeling tonight. I have a similar story with my 2nd MC. We went in as I was having a little bleeding and found out the baby had died at 7.5 weeks. I realise it is not exactly the same and that what you are going through is awful. I hope you have a nice glass of wine tonight.
I think it is very helpful for you to be in here, even though I myself am only new here.
I don't think it is bad to be wanting to try again. I know I felt the same way and you would like to have your beautiful child.
I am thinking of you (and have a tear for you too),
Welcome ladies, im sorry about your losses and its not wrong to be in this thread.
Well as soon as im off the cripple sticks me and DH will be activly trying again, but im so scared to have history repeating itself. Just feel everyone on BB is moving on but me, well I feel like im still in limbo land.
Just feeling a bit blah today
hi all,shan-hope you can get back in the saddle soon....welcome to the new ladies,sorry for your losses,hope your stay here is short..afm-in the tww with a natural cycle,doing another ivf cycle september probably
afternoon ladies. Well as of today im off the cripple sticks my hands can go back to normal.
On the TTC, the journey will now start again as of a gyno appointment at the womens hospital tomorrow. My mums coming with me as im still finding my feet after 2 months on crutches lol
Will update tomorrow. Hope everyone is well. Thread is very very quiet these days
I am not sure what thread I belong on-- but I know that I need to chat with someone who knows this journey--
To be brief-- we lost our miracle IVF baby boy at 2 months in April due to a number of bizarre issues (there was scarring on his brainstem) and now we are trying again. Because of my age, we can't afford to wait. I had my second IVF procedure a couple of days ago, and they did the transfer (5 day transfer) today. They transferred two blastocysts. I am hopeful, and trying to heal-- this time with IVF was a bit "rougher" but they retrieved 15 eggs, and 11 fertilized. I don't know if we will have anything to freeze-- that would be a bonus. But we have already defied the odds, in terms of the blastocyst.
I need a huge dose of courage to do this again...and a place to chat.
