Scanlon is having his morning sleep and I am feeling reasonably good.
Hope all are well.
Kelly - As far as telling people go, my approach has been that I have told every body about my 2 M/C, so I might as well tell people about pregnancy. I did not wait the "standard"12 weeks (except at work). It can be a bit stressful when everyone is asking all the time though!
Sez - 2 of my 3 pregnancies started with SEVERE cramping on the day AF was due. I was so sure that I was not pregnant. This included the pregnancy that resulted in "Mr Moo" as we call him! Based on my experience, I'm hoping its a good thing for you.
Kate - I know you posted your question re a possible implantation bleed a few days ago. What you described sounds like what I attributed to an implantation bleed. Fingers crossed.
Hope - Hi there. I hope hanging out here will ease your pain some. It has for me. One of my M/C was missed. I had to have a D&C, and DH and I did not wait to TTC again. AF came 6 weeks after D&C, and that month Scanlon was coneived. As far as "other" babies go, I count my 2 Jack Russells, Chester and Ruby as my babies. They gave me a lot of comfort after my first M/C. Dogs are so intuitive. They knew something was wrong and just wanted to sit on my lap all the time, it was beautiful.
Kez - Sorry for your loss. I dont have any advice about ectopic, all I can say is be kind to yourself.
Today is CD10 and DH and I are working on our BD. What approach do you guys take? Do you go "like rabbits" or do you take a slow and steady approach? Previously we have BD'ed on CD 8 10 12 14 16 18. What do you think about this?
Also wondering if any of you have come across many women who have been breastfeeding children when they are pregnant with a new baby?
I am still BF Scanlon, and though my Dr says it does not matter, BF causes the uterus to contract after birth, so I think it stands to reason that this may increase the risk of mc.
Any ideas?
