Trying to Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ May 2006

Hi Girls

Michelle, how are you??

Jayne, have fun at launa park :) Sounds like Jess scored at shopping ;)

I would have been 11weeks today. Just thinking about it brings a tear to my eye! Does it get any easier? Or does eevery week that passes cause you to think, "I would be 'this many' weeks today". And I don't even want to think about the edd... I think this is why I would prefer to be pregnant again than to dwell on the loss of this baby. I was really happy when I got up this morning, now I am so sad!! :( Oh the joys!
I was telling a newly pregnant woman not to think badly of herself for falling pregnant so easily, while soem women have so much trouble. I did the same thing! Now I am kicking myself!I should have counted every blessing! Sorry now I am ranting!

Tanya

Tanya big higs.

You will still count how many weeks you would have been and your EDD will be hard but in time it does get easier. I found being pregnant with Alex took my mind of things but i never forgot.

I hope today ends up a happy one for you.

Jayne have a great time at Luna park.

Not much going on with me at the moment did another OPK test this morning and it only came up with one line. It wasn't my FMU as i was woken by Kimberley at 4.30 and now way was i going to pee in a cup that time of the morning and wait to see if a second line would come up. Not long to wait not till AF will be here.

Good Morning all,

Jayne, have Fun at luna park, i have not been there for years.

Michelle, I know its hard but patience is a virtue, won't be long and im sure we will be seing a BFP from you very soon!

Chelle, Hopefully AF arrives early so that you can get on with TTC for next cycle.

Tanya, I know what you are going through sweet, I have a couple of friends who are due around the same time i was and as i watch their tummies grow i realize that thats how far along i would have been, when the babes are born it will be tougher im sure.

Gee its really qiuet in here lately don't you think?
My temp stayed risen today so i pretty much can safely say i O'd on Thursday, i should get a coverline tomorrow, so im pretty sure we out of the running this month, so hopefully Chelle, June will be both of our month's and we will move over to the ark together, oh and anybody else who is needing a change of scenery is quiet welcome to move with us!
Well DH and I are going out for dinner tonight with some friends, looking forward to it, Hayleigh is staying with my mum, it will be nice to have some Husband & wife time instead of being mummy and daddy all the time, I love it i really do, but sometimes you forget the connection that brought you together in the first place.

Oh well have great weekend girls, check in again later if i get a chance.

Shell

Hello everyone,

Tanya, :hugs: you matey. I wish I could do something to take away all your pain. With time it does get easier, I think. You will always remember your little ~angel baby~ and he/she will always live in your heart forever. Early on there were days I used to think I would've been X amount of days pg and even now @ times I will think ~Matthew~ or my first ~angel baby~ would've been X months old. If that happens I do sometimes have a little cry and then I will be ok again. For me too I think it did help to get pg again (altho there is always this worry that it will happen again) but once you are over that certain milestone when you lost your ~angel~ and then hold you little healthy baby in your arms things d get easier. Well fr me it did anyway. Sorry I am probably ranting too much. :o

Candi, welcome. I am so sorry for your loss. i know you will recieve loads of support here as all the girls are so wonderful and supportive.

Michelle, :hugs: to you too matey. You know I am here for you if you ever need to talk. I am just a phone call away. I really hope AF stays away for you and you do get that much deserved BFP.

Jayne, have fun @ Luna Park today. Yay your temp has stayed up. Good luck with the now TWW matey. I really hope you will have some good news for us in a couple of weeks.

Hi to everyone else.I hope you all have a lovely Saturday.

Hi Everyone :hello:
Just popping in to read posts and check on everyone!

Jayne ~ have a great day at Luna Park. I know what you mean about saying goodbye. Everything I go on hols to see my Gran and say goodlbye I'm a blubbering mess when we get back to the car. We never know if it's the last time we will see her. :hug: to you!!
Good luck with the TWW honey.

Shell ~ good luck with the TWW now. Thanks for thinking of me. I am doing fine. Just cruising along.

Michelle ~ I hope the AF stays away for you!

Sorry for no big personals today..having a massive cleaning day and I gotta keep going or I'll just stop completely...lol. Welcome to the newbies and good luck to all those waiting to test soon!!!

Luv Beccy

Well i think AF is hinting she will be coming next week i have had a little bit of spotting today :(

Oh Michelle I so hope that the spotting is just an implant.

But if not please know that I am praying for you to recieve the biggest BFP next cycle. Thinking of you sweety.

Thank you Nola.

I'm not holding out much hope it is a implant bleed if it is it's taken a long time to implant from when we last dtd.

Fingers crossed that it is just implantation bleeding for you Michelle

Michelle, It is perfect timing for an implantation bleed!You say you think O was last thursday... that is only 9 days! Don't give up yet.

Tanya

If my opk was right i got the dark line Tuesday which means you O 24-48 hours later so that makes Thursday. That is if i have worked it out right.

I'll try and stay hopefully.

Ok, so you are 9-10 dpo.... yep still perfect timing for an implantation bleed :D

Tanya

Hi ladies

This is the first time I have been in here since the forum was revamped... been distancing myself a bit... I have to say that the bellies on the forum list look like breasts...

Nothing much happening on my end... had a natural cycle after my laparoscopy, BFP for a few days and of course AF arrived...

Back on Puregon now, first scan on Monday morning and I had my first accupuncture appointment this morning... not sure how I felt about that but I will keep trying.

Nola - As I said, I have not been here for a while, just wanted to say that I was so happy to see your ticker :)

Michelle, hopefully it was an implantation bleed matey. *crosses fingers*

Nic, its so good to see you back. I hope evrything goes well with your u/s on Monday.

Good Morning Lovely Ladies,

Michelle - I'm so hoping you're having an implantation bleed,the numbers do add up.

Kazz - I didn't O this month, so no TWW for me. Not to worry, I enjoyed my glass of wine last night! LOL.

Pautiric - Good luck with your upcoming appointments, so glad you've found us again.

Nola - How are you my little bundle of happiness? How is that little Samual? I bet you wake up each morning with a smug little smile on your face you clever thing! I think you've got a girl, that's my gut feeling.....

Beccy - How are you going? Man your ticker is whooshing past so fast! Lets hope the labour whooshes past too!!!

Shell - How are you possum? I hope you're feeling more positive after your letdown last week. Just remember I'm here with ya and we can do it together next month. *Yay, she's thinking* LOL.

Me - Well, as I was saying before I left Perth, I didn't ovulate, so I'm not counting my TWW at all. I have felt a bit sick and do have sore bb's but I'm sure that's just a change in environment and nothing to think about. I'm not even considering that I'm pg. It's purely impossible this month from my perspective. I haven't even thought about it to be perfectly honest. I'm so in love with Jessica. She has been a total sweetheart so far. Perfect angel on the flight and also the long train rides to Wollongong and so good in restaurants and the car and in the shops. I haven't really bought much, a top for me & then a shirt from Luna Park with Alan. She has been saying 'Loooooooonnnnnnnnaaaaaa', she loved it. I better go. Everybody is up now and it's ZOO DAY! Jessica's first time at a zoo and she is busting to see the elephants!!

Love Jayne

Hi all
im with you shell on the June conception,i will be giving it everything I have got and more if I have too.Hmm March baby sound very cool, there is none in the family yet, I have 6 other siblings and my ma has 20 grandchildren, and not one in March... how cool wd that be!!! Oh so many of you are coming up to the big day where we wait with baited breath and so hope for the BFP, I so pray for all of you that it comes true.
Jayne you just never know, our bodies are so weird at the best of times, so im so crossing my fingers for you sweetpea...jessica sounds like a real doll, she also sounds like she is having the time of her life
How are you Nola, hope your feeling ok, and not to horribly sick...
Kirsty how you doing,I hope things are going as best that they can be....
Well my day has passed rather quickly, 3 more sleeps and DH is home, yah... Im so tired its not funny...its amazing what we do us woman... 6 weeks, 4 kids, just abit too long!!!and here i want 5...
Well darhling woman, hope your day has been nice, and your week even better..love to all

hey all just popping in to sprinkle some baby dust around. Love to you all. xx

Awww Nola, Thanx lovely, Its so nice to see you being able to sprinkle us with dust!!!

Sorry girls no time for personals, very tired had a bad night with hayleigh, so im off to bed early, will tuck myself in ready to watch all about the trapped miners, thats if i make it that long without crashing.

See you all tomorrow

Just checking in after reading through the last couple of days posts. I am on CD 16 but am not monitoring my cycle or using OPK at the moment. It is my second cycle since my miscarriage in March. I don't think this is the month for us - although i have been v moody for no particular reason for the past week! However I went to see an ob/gyn for the first time last week and she was so lovely I decided that if (when!) I manage to carry full-term I would love for her to deliver the baby... Anyway, it will mean us getting private hospital cover which we don't currently have....AND (wait for it) there is a 12 month 'waiting period' -- so if I did get pg with the next 3 months, I wouldn't be able to use her anyway..!! Think I will join anyway, this way every time I get a BFN in the next two months I can always convince myself that it is for a reason!!
Anyone else know much about private hospital cover and what is the general opinion on different birthing options (midwife v ob; public v private etc..?)
Other than that, am just counting down now to AF - and the week preceding in which I will become a monster! Anyone else suffer from severe PMS??
Thanks again girls for all the welcome messages :p

Hi All,

Gosh its been really quiet in here of late, Im so hoping that all of us get BFP's really soon and move over to where all the action is.

Jess, I decided to get private health, just before we started TTC with Hayleigh, not knowing that we would fall first go i thought that it would take me a few months, so it ended up with me stressing as to which hospital i would go to as my 12 month waiting period ended on the 4th October and i was due on the 16th, once i past the 4th i was so relieved cos if she decided to come early i was in trouble, it turned out she was late and did not come until the 22nd but my advice would be join up NOW if you are considering it, im with NIB and they have been really good.

*MIchelle* How are you doing petal? hope that you are feeling a bit brighter, how is the spotting going, has it stopped or had af arrived early?

Chelle, WOW Chelle, i don't know where i missed that you have 4 kids, good on you coping that long on your own, by the time you read this it will be only 2 sleeps to go!

Jayne, How was the Zoo, we went there last week, Miss Hayleigh was really excited to see the elephants too, very dissapointed when we said they were on a holiday ( they are still in quarantine apparently) What do you think of our beautiful city??? hope the rest of your holiday is going well for you.

Nic, Its really good to see you back again, hope the accupuncture gets a little easier for you.

Well no news from me, I finally got a cover line yesterday so atleast i know i O'd, im starting to think that i may have had and early loss last cycle as AF showed up on day 26 which never happens, it was very heavy from the word go, i did have a faint BFP and now did not O until CD 22 which could mean my levels were dropping until i O'd on Thursday, im just speculating but just seems weird to me, so now im 4 DPO and know that there will be no chance for a BFP for me this month so i need one (or 2 or 3) of you girls to get one to keep me going!!!

Have a great night!

Shell

Hey Shell - I am pooped! You're city is so damn hilly! The zoo, the city, every where there are hills. It's great to actually feel like you've done some exercise though. Perth is SOOOOOOOOOo flat! The zoo was awesome and yes, the elephants are still on vacation. I have just been into Darling Harbour and shopping in the city. I'm soooooooo busted when I get home. I spent $250 on hand bags. Oopsie daisy. I bought a truck load of clothes and two pairs of shoes. We went to the aquarium too. I love the seals, they are the BEST! I am turtle mad and was sad to only see one turtle.
Lets hope that this is the month for you. I did think somethign wasn't quite right when you got af on day 26 and it was a disaster visit. Sorry cherub. Lets just move forward and concentrate on the 'now'! I will be trying hard this month, I haven't been doing my temp so I'm just waiting for AF and then I'll start again. I know I didn't O this month, so there are no chances for me either. Give miss hayleigh a huggle from aunty jayne.
Love ME

Shell - I am doing okay no more spotting from Saturday and no sign of AF yet.

Jayne - OMG at spending $250 on hang bags but at least you are having a great time. I love going to the Zoo we have been to the one here twice already and i never get bored of walking round.

I'll be back later after i have been to the doctors :)

Michelle - Have I missed something somewhere to warrant a doctor's appointment? I'm a bit out the loop atm. BOL with whatever it is.
Yep, I LOVED the zoo. I so loved watching the monkeys, probably because I'm a big monkey myself. LOL. We went to the Lindt Chocolate Cafe today and OMG how awesome is that place. I'm sure it was all fat-free. Positive in fact. NOTTT!!! Jess & I had waffles and a hot chocolate to share and I felt sick just looking at it. You get frothed milk and pure milk chocolate and mix them together to make your drink. OMG it was orgasmic!!! I bought my man a BIG box of Lindt chockies and some for Jess & I on the road! LOL. She is running on chocolates atm.
LET ME KNOW ASAP about the Doctors! I'm excited!
By the way, I have really sore boobs and some foods are making me gag. Weird hey? I don't think it's pg symptoms though, you know when you just feel it? I just don't think it's that. I think it's being in a strange environment, etc...
Jayne

Never give up hope Jayne you never know.
Yummy at going to the Lint Chocolate Cafe. I went to the cadbury's one when we lived in the UK and OMG it was yummy.

Not seeing the doctor about much just a quick check up and to talk about what to do next.

Wow Jayne, I have been a sydney sider all my life and i have never heard of the lindt chocolate cafe, Where abouts is it? Love to go for a splurge. Maybe when AF arrives next time to drown my sorrows:cryinglaugh: (or eat them away i should say!)

Hello girls!!! - how is everyone??

Alan and I just got back from our weekend at Apollo Bay... just gorgeous.
Had to laugh got EWCM on the first day there, and ummm... we DTD without protection the whole weekend!!! LOL... gotta laugh about it. For 11months I get no natural EWCM and then this happens!!!

Talk soon girls!!

Shell - It's the corner of Martin Place & Elizabeth Street. Gotta laugh, my gf and I trekked for agesss and thought bugger it we can't find it - we were looking for a red & gold building and then we turned around to go back and there it was. It's a silver building. Very flash, very crowded. I spent a lot on chocolates. Another oopsie daisy! LOL.

Tamara - Seeeeeee!!!!!! that's just what the doctor ordered, some downtime. Lets hope it did the trick, just don't go calling bubs Apollo if you did fall pg! LOL.

Love ME

Oh wow tamara, lets hope you have great news in the next couple of weeks...

Just letting all you girls know, there are pics up in our WWW of our weekend away!!

Hey there girls,

I am doing really well,

Jayne: Hon dont miss me I will be popping in every now and again to sprinkle dust around. Great to hear you are having fun with the spending and that Jess is having fun with you.
Chelle: how are things sweet, I am fine Not feeling to bad, apart from the uncomfortable bb's at night. Guess you will be able to experience this very soon. I am praying.

Tamara: great to hear you had a natural weekend (in more ways than one) lol. Great to see your smiling face back in here.

Michelle: Hun, I so hope all is well with your Drs appointment. Look forward to chatting soon. sending you (((((huge Hugs)))))
Shell: sprinkle sprinkle little dust, to get a BFP it is a must. There did you like that. It is Just for you. now get your butt over in the PAML my dear. lol

hello to everyone else.

Kazz : how are you my dear friend. Samual is doing much better and we had a parent teacher home visit this avo, He is doing really well and keeping up with the other children which makes Michael and I really happy indeed. Well must go and rest, Did another full time duty at the Kinder today. Now I am stuffed. Love to all xxxxx

Okay now i will tell all. This morning i did an HPT with FMU and it came up faint BFP then an hour later i did another one and within a minute the line started to come up. I made myself a Dr's appt as i wanted to get seen as soon as possible just in case something goes wrong. I then did my last test at lunch time and again the line was coming up in minutes. All three tests where different brands and all three had BFP's on them not as dark as the control line but lines all the same.

I went to the Dr's at 3:30 made sure i hadn't had anything to drink from the morning so my wee would be good and the Dr's test came up BFN. I had to have a BT to confirm which i will get the results tomorrow. Not sure what to think at the moment park or me wants to be happy and the other part ofme is scared that they are all false BFP's and I'm not pg.

Well that was my day and it's going to continue the same with me checking everytime i go to the toilet that i don't start to bleed.

Michelle - Oh man, praying so hard for you baby doll. Lets hope it's good news. When are the results due in?

Nola - I DO miss you, how can I not? Glad to hear Samual is on par with the other students considering he must miss some time off being sick. You have a clever little boy there, congratulations.

Chelle66 - Oh yeah, I'm really in with the shopping. I'm quite a good shopper and haven't had a MAJOR splurge like that in absolutely ages. I'm really quite impressed with my purchases. The shoes are gorgeous, practical mind you, but gorgeous but I'm really wondering when I will get the chance to use the hand bags. The baby bag is my hand bag these days. I only have two hand bags at home and one was a gift so it's not like I have 50 at home as well. I bought pink because I"m ALWAYS wearing pink and teal green cos that's sooooooooo the colour right now. But anyway, I have some teal things and lots of pink, so I just have to remember to use them. The tops are practical too. It was actually what I really needed, some long sleeved tops but I just don't think I needed 8 of them...........

Hello to everybody else. I'm flying back home tomorrow night so I'll chat to you all in the coming days. Lets just hope that when I log on on Wed/Thu we have some of us making announcements in the Pregnancy pages..........

Jayne

Michelle, I have pm'd you. Chin up sweet pea, All will be just fine.
Love to you heaps

Jayne - I should have the results by tomorrow lunch time.My friend that goes to the same Dr's said she has never got a BFP on the tests they use and always has had to have a BT done to confirm her pregnancies. She said they are very good at calling back so hopefully by the time i get back from my shopping trip tomorrow i will have some good news.

Thanks so much Nola you are a good friend.

Hi lovely ladies...

Ultrasound went well enough on Monday. 2 x 12mm follies... E2 is still very low (170) though so fingers crossed it has picked up by Thursday...

Jayne - Sounds like you've had a wonderful time!

Shell - A coverline is news enough :) Fingers crossed for you!

Candi - It's probably worth it to do it if you want. Perhaps Murpheys law will prevail and you will fall pregnant as soon as you get it... which is still a bonus :).

Michelle - good luck i will expect a txt to know either way!!!! Sending truckloads of :bluedust:

Hello everyone,

Just popping in to see how you all are. Will try and do some more personals later. Sprinkling lots of :bluedust:

Hey Girls,

Firstly,

Michelle: Praying that your results are thru really soon. Best of luck and sending you a Truck load of love and baby dust.

Nic: Great news re your follies, I am so hoping that this is the one for you, you have been thru so much and deserve a break. Keep me updated. have everything crossed for you.

Jayne: cant wait until you are back home safe and sound and filling us all in on your adventures over the past week. Big tickle to your precious little pumpkin.

Chelle: sending you some babydust also, you just never know what is around the crn.

Kirsty: how are you sweet? How did all the testing go in the city. I have been thinking of you and hope that you have managed to get some helpful answers. (((HUGS)))

Kazz: What is your excuse for no personals, It is not like you have a new born or anything. Only joking. Sending you my love and hugs to you.

Hiya guys just locking this thread now, new one is here
