Trying To Conceive after Miscarriage or Loss ~ October 2006 #3

[chepie]

Hi everyone,

ohh I first!! yay...

My poor poor fury friend Clover, she has just come off heat and has been really unwell the last few days so we took her to the vet and was told that she had to have emergency surgery because her uterus was serverly infected and he had to de-sex her It made me so sad for her she never got a chance to be a mum. Hmmm didn't think that sort of thing happened to dogs. Anyways the vet said that she should be fine and I pick her up tomorrow.

Hope- hey sweetie how are you? Hope that Stella is ok - our poor puppies

Hope everyone is well

Kez-- How's little Clover girl going? It may be a blessing in disguise-- she might have had all manner of other probs if the infection wasn't detected now. Apparently desxing them reduces the incidence of mammory cancers too. I remember Stelly was off her face when we picked her up from the vets after being de-sexed. We really thought alot about it before getting her done but we were advised that alot of little dogs can have problems birthing especially if a bigger dog is the daddy! We took the cast off her leg today and she gets the stitches out tomoz. She's still not putting alot of weight on it and if you say to her "have you got a sore?" she sticks it out to show you-- so bloody cute! The leg itself look like a shaved chicken leg- eewwww, gross.
What about you? Where are you in your cycle? Are you still going with the 'BD'ing like a bandit' plan?

Sez-- Congrats on your scan! That's fantastic news.

LisaL-- Are things are moving along as you want them to this cycle? I've been a bit hopeless with temping this month and think I'll be relying on OPKs as well as just some good old random BD'ing!

Paige-- when do you get your BT results? It must be doing your head in?

As for things for me on the TTC front I'm still feeling a little like I'm just treading water and waiting to drown again. But as my DH said this is the road we're travelling and whilst ever we still want kids we just have to continue trying to move forward. I have moments where I feel positive but then I just think to myself "yeah well that's what you thought last time too"-- I must work on some more positive self-talk!
BBL for more personals-- I have to check out the old thread.
Happy Sunday girlies!
