    I'm having a D&C tomorrow I been bleeding since Sunday night I only passed a few clots so they are going do the D&C and clean everything out ... I may try to have a baby in year or so but I'm not sure after having two losses in 4 months I'm to hurt mentally and physically to even think about it right now I hope if I do decide to try again when I come back all you girls are gone from this forum because you got the bubs you have been praying for thanks for all your prayers and showing me so much love

    Oh Toccara honey I am so devastated for you. That's just not fair! Have you had another ultrasound? If you haven't, I think you should ask for another before the procedure to confirm things, even if it's just for peace of mind. Oh it's just so unfair! If you even need to talk or anything, feel free to pm. My thoughts are with you sweetness

    Babyfever - Hope you get yourselves a little . Thanks for the advice on the chart. I agree with you.

    Vanaithi - Congrats on your successful IUI. Glad to hear you are having a relaxing day. those find your little eggie. Take care.

    Toccara - Oh hun . Take care honey. We'll miss you.

    Tam - Thanks, I think I will make the change, and will also get a BT on Friday morning (so long as they do a couple of hours turn around like I beleive they do, other wise I'll go Thursday morning). Thanks. I really hope the results are what you are hoping for.

    AFM - Been having some very slight cramping today so far. Implantation perhaps Other than that, a little moody, but just taking it easy at school today.

    Take care everyone.

    Babyfever - Going for a prog / hCG BT on Friday early morning, so will be posting as soon as I can to let you know the results. Should find out just after lunch.

    Jen - The dashes are cause I ticked 'discard' that day. Awake at 3am to go to toilet; Intercourse at 4am - no ejectulation; Back to sleep at 5am. So I figured that my temp at 6.30am wouldn't have been accurate. I would think that all that moving around (and not having enough rest to let it go back) would make it higher than it actually should be. So I think that would have been my dip that day, then O on the following day (CD16).

    AFM - Nothing new. Feeling preg though. Don't know why. Just am. Am being very carful and protective of my tummy too, like when kids come to hug me, I am turning sideways. Will see what my temp does in the morning and then probably override it so that my O date is CD16. Thanks to those of you who have checked out my chart.

    I did go to the Er last night and ended up seeing a lovely doctor who was actually about 6-7 months pregnant herself, hopefully a good sign. But gee I was sad seeing her in all her pregnant glory. The good thing about having a pregnant doctor is the dignity and respect in which she treated me. I am basically having a threatened miscarriage. This means I have to rest as much as possible, virtually impossible with three children already, but I am doing my best. I have an u/s scheduled for 10am tomorrow, so I am am anxiously waiting for the results from it. The bleeding has turned into brown goop ( sorry, tmi), before it was quite a fresh red swipe. I am having mild cramps, really mild and I know it probably does not indicate much with bubba's status, but I have done two more pregnancy tests and the positive pregnancy line is the darkest I have ever had with any of my previous pregnancies, even the twins. So fingers crossed and lots of prayers and maybe I might have a miracle. Thankyou so much for all your thoughts, prayers and support. It's wonderful to feel uplifted in the face of such uncertainty.

    And Toccara, my heart goes out to you. I'm so sorry for you. I completely understand that you want to put off TTC. If I lose this bubba, I am putting it off too for a while. There's only so much a heart can take over a matter of months. Lots of hugs
    I am thinking of you

    Leyza,

    Take care hon. I am for you that all comes up positive. The BFP sounds great, and also the fact that you had a preg doctor. I hope DH will do as much house work for you as possible. Do you have anyone that can mind the kids for a couple of days so you can really relax? Or perhaps someone that can come and live with you for a little while??

    Looking forward to logging on tomorrow and seeing that everything is a-ok with you!

    Hi everyone,

    Tocarra I hope everything is okay sweetie. I check everyday to see if you have posted anything. Saying lots of prayers for you.

    Fificlaire Sorry the lemons didn't work but the FS say that the more m/s you have the better. It just means your hormones are going crazy and that the pregnancy is progressing. I can imagine how scary it must be for you. Sending you lots of

    Van Good luck with your IUI. Sounds like tonight is the night Hope you get your BFP this month.

    Emmykate Hi when I had my two miscarriages the o/b at the hospital said it would be fine to ttc again after the bleeding stopped.

    KL and Chyan Sending you lots of . Your HCG levels were great. This one looks like a sticky jellybean :woot:

    Ruthie Glad to hear everything went well over the weekend and the bleeding stopped. Good luck at your docs appointment hope everything goes great looking forward to reading you post and hearing that everything is fine.

    Babyfever Sending you lots of and that you get your BFP.

    Joey I agree with babyfever and would say your 6DPO. I would get a BT done just to check that way you dont have to worry about it all weekend. Good luck.

    As for me DH had his second semen test yesterday to check his DNA fragmentation as last time it was above 30 which is pretty bad. I have my u/s on friday to check that everything is okay after my op to remove the subseptum. Then we have our FS appointment next wednesday to get the results. This week is going to go sooooo slow. that we get great results.

    Anyone else I missed sorry. Sending you all and

    Tocarra - my thoughts are with you. I'd ask for another u/s before your procedure just to make sure, remember a lot of women do have a bleed and go on to have a H&H little bub. I do so hope that you are able to come back at some point and TTC again. Let your heart and body heal and remember we are always here for you. We'll try really hard to clear this thread out for you.

    Ruthie - all the best with your appointment on Wed. Hope everything goes just the way you want it to.

    Leyza - for you. Please have yourself checked.

    Fifi - can you send DH over. (make sure he brings a piece of cheesecake for me) then you can have him straight back

    Krystie - give that belly a rub for me.

    Van - hope that little egg meets Dh's swimmers while your having your rest. Enjoy your relax session.

    to anyone else i've missed. (i'd better get back to work now - the natives are getting restless - it's almost time to go outside and play)

    Toccara-My heart goes out to you darling! I agree if you havn't had an U/s done since the bleeding I would get one just to make sure Please take care of yourself we will miss you. I really sorry your going through all this babe. Your more than welcome to come in and post anytime darling if you want too, we will be here for you.

    Joey-I would if I was you go ahead and get a progesterone check just to make sure you Oed but I'm pretty sure your around 6DPO ATM. Let your Nice 1 1/2 week wait continue. Hope you get your BFP very soon..

    Tam-Did they say if there was anything Dh can be on to help with that??? Geeze, I'm sorry thats going on. Bless your DH heart and yours as well. I hope this week goes by faster for you...

    Oh Toccara my thoughts are with you at this time, its just horrible isn't it and just not fair!!! rest up and take care and I fully understand giving your body a break for a while.

    Ruthie - goodluck at docs appointmen Im sure all will be fine and bub is growing well and is nice and snug in your womb...

    Fificlaire - have you tried ginger tea??? it can help with nausea, or even a few drops of lavender oil on your pillow when sleeping can help.

    Babyfever -

    Tam - goodluck with Docs appt and lots of to you

    to everyone else today have a fantastic day....

    Toccara--Oh, honey... I'm so, so sorry! I'm also questioning if you've had another u/s--and what about BT's? Have they actually confirmed that you've m/c'd? Wish that I could be there for you... sending you the biggest hugs... take care of yourself.


    Ruthie--Wishing you the best of luck for your appt. tomorrow! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your little one!



    fifi--Will your DH make me a cheesecake? I like regular, strawberry, or pineapple!



    joey--What's the deal with the dashes going from the 14th-16th on your chart? How come it skipped the 15th??? Could that temp just have been a little off--did anything unusual happen that morning? Because if that temp were just a little higher, I think it would've given you your coverline on the 16?



    Van--Wishing you the best of luck with your IUI! Please little go find that egg!!

    mollycat! Is your thermometer stuck on the same numbers, or what? Any niggles yet? Saying lots of for you!



    Oops, gotta be at a meeting at the school in 7 minutes! Talk soon!

    Babyfever The FS put him on menevit to help with his sperm its kinda the same as elevit for females put for sperm. Hopefully that will fix the problem.
