Oh Pash, that is just terrible, terrible news I am so sorry. You and your DH are in my thoughts and you have my deepest sympathies. Please take care of yourself.
Hi everyone else, I'll be back in a few days to do personals - I am out of internet allowance now for the rest of the month.
Pash - sweetheart, I am so sorry to hear your news. I was really hoping to hear that all was going along well. I don't know if it is any consolation, but I know how you feel. One m/c is bad enough, but 2 in a row really starts to get you down, esp the loss of your beautiful twins. It is good that you are now eligible to have some testing done, although you are right, there is only something like a 20% chance they will actually find something wrong, as unfortunately m/c is just v common. I had the testing down after my second m/c and although they didn't find anything, it was a little reassuring to know that there was nothing badly wrong. I hope it does not turn out to be a molar pg, that would just add salt to the wound after your losses. I know that right now a 6 mth wait probably feels like a v long time to you, so that is the last thing you want to hear. I am thinking of you sweetie, and I hope we can be of some support for you here. I got myself all freaked out about a molar pg yesterday and started researching them, I am just constantly paranoid right now.
Salt - sweetie, I don't know what to say, you just sound so down right now. I know it is so hard to see it happening one day, but it WILL happen one day. Why it is so much harder for some than others, I do not know, but you will get there in the end. I am so glad to hear that your parents op went well, I hope they will be home again in no time.
belinda - so sorry to hear about your friend, what a terrible way to go. You're right, life is so short and we really need to make the most of what we have, although some days that can be hard. I guess things like that remind us to make the most of every second.
Leyla -
satya - grrr re your SIL, I know how you feel, esp when you feel she is keeping the news from you. My SIL had the first grandchild 7 months ago, right between my m/cs, and I really struggle at family gatherings. Some days I just can't do it, I get so sick of everyone talking about her and the bub and goo-ing and gaa-ing all day long. It seems so unfair sometimes - why do some people have to go through so much when others just get what they want straight away?
TTBP - there is still time! I don't usually O until CD20-26 and sometimes we just have an 'off' cycle for some reason, so there is still a chance!
shellbell - glad to hear you have an appointment with a FS. They sure make you wait for an appointment sometimes!!
missbelinda77 im sorry to hear about your friend that is so sad. i hope you are doing ok and hope the funeral went well. you will get there. one of the girls friends at work her freind died last night of a drug over dose and left her 2 little children behind. i dont know how pll can take their own lifes it is so precius. and the ones that have an illness have no chioce its not fair on them. well thats my belief on it all.
saltprincess im glad you parents op went well that is great news. just relax hun and things will flow and you will pg b4 you know it.
bun i hope everything is going well with you and the bubs you r doing well. how are you feeling?
well i think that is all of you sorry to anyone i have missed.
as for me i have the flu and it sucks. but apart from that i am doing well. only one wekk to go till we can ttc again. i am so excited.
Oh Pash. This is so unfair, i just can't believe this has happened to you. You really only deserve the very best and i feel very angry you have had to experience another miscarriage. Life shouldn't be like this. I'm not really a religious person but will be praying that it's not a molar pregnancy.
I just wish there were words to comfort you but i know the pain you're feeling is pretty impenetrable. Please know that even though we have all had different experiences, we have all experienced miscarriage, so understand as much as we can what you're going through and will be here when you need us. God, i'm just so sorry, i feel so sad.
Salt, hugs to you too, i really thought this would be your month. But on the other hand, i'm pleased your folks are doing so well. You've been through the wringer so should spoil yourself a bit this weekend.
Leyla - happy birthday fellow cancerian! Hey my horroscope a few weeks ago said promising things about babies and fertility, so i hope that's true for you too.
Belinda, i'm sorry about your friend. Have you called your FS and told them you're worried? I hope AF stops soon, it sounds draining.
Satya - sucks about your SIL. Some people (and i admit i was one during my first preg) just don't understand that not everyone will be overjoyed to hear their news. one thing m/c teaches you is to be more sensitive and compassionate towards others, as you never know what's going on behind closed doors. I hope she's not too painful! and even more so, i hope you can share some news with her sooner rather than later.
Shoegal - good news hon!
Sharon i can't remember if this has been answered or not, but no, the heating shouldn't affect your temps. at 16 degrees your body will be maintaining it's core temp, i think it's only in extreme circumstances that the air temp would affect your bbt.
Megs - welcome to the group, looking forward to getting to know you.
Megsmum, hope TTC goes well this cycle. if you do fall, i'm sure your doc can mmonitor your progesterone and give you pessaries to supplement it. good luck.
Lisa - woohoo! glad things are going well for you!
Bun, things sound very good for you too. not long now until your scan and i'm sure all will be good and your can focus on a lovely relaxing holiday!
TimNik - i have heard of the secret but haven't read it. i'm a huge fan of positive thinking though and visualisation. i practice what i preach (normally, this preg is doing my head in!) i find it's great while you're in the right headspace, but other times is very difficult... it's hard to think positively about a miscarriage for example, even though you might think positively about the future, it's hard to see any good that can come from losing a baby.
Your symptoms sound good, here's hoping!!
TTBP - could it be that you're going to ovulate late this month? i don't normally ovulate until quite late, up to CD 24... i hope the FS has some answers for you.
Shellbell, good luck with the results, and i hope you're spot on about this cycle.
Zionsmum - happy anniversary for the weekend! i hope it's a memorable one for more than one reason!
To all the other girls, hello!
We found out last night my cousin and his wife had to have an emergency c/s on monday at 32 weeks. their daughter is tiny, but alive. there are just too many scary stories out there, but i guess you don't necessarily hear about all the perfect endings.
Off to see a friend tonight who i haven't seen in ages. i'm dreading it. last time i saw her i was newly preg in my last pregnancy, and even though she knew i was TTC she was so damn critical of me wanting to have a baby. i don't know what her prob is. i haven't really seen her since and never told her about the pg or m/c, as i was worried she'd gloat. really don't want to go tonight but will, as DH is very good mates with her hubby.
Speak soon girls. Again i'm so sorry for the sad news around this place. Pash you are in my thoughts.
my dp just told me that hi cousin a while back had a misscarraige and the dr told them that it could have something to do with their blood types eg both possitive type or negative types. i dont know if you have heard about it or if it is even true but maybe if you havent you should talk to you gps about it. i found it interesting. apparantly there is a injection that can stop the 2 blood types from clashing and causing m/c. just thought i would let you all know just incase some of you didnt know.
Salt - I'm glad that your parents ops went well, it must be a huge relief. I'm sorry that it looks like your AF is on its way. Please try to not be too hard on yourself, I know how down you get when the witch arrives. It will happen again when it is meant to.
Bun - I read something interesting yesterday about morning sickness that should make you very happy that you are getting it. The article stated that women who get m/s are far less likely to get breast cancer.... finally some good news on having to suffer through it.
Susan - I hope you are feeling better.
Claire - Why was your friend so critical about you TTC? If I do have some news to share I certainly wont be sharing it any time soon with her or anyone else in real life for that matter as I'm determined that we will not tell anyone until 12 weeks next time. That could become difficult of course if we do IVF as I know some family members will show quite a bit of interest in the whole process.
Family dramas today for us. Can't go in to details but lets just say I'm way over it. I've been feeling really ordinary all afternoon and almost threw up at work. I'm thinking it must be stress related due to the dramas plus work was really hectic as well due to end of financial year. I'm really hoping tomorrow will be far more calm.
Hi, this is my first post, but have been "lurking" for a couple of weeks now. Hope no one minds, but after reading about Pash I felt i needed to post.
Pash -Firtly I am sooo sorry for your loss, I know how it feels having had my 3rd mc about 5 wks ago, and D&C 4 wks ago. I too am awaiting test results for a suspected molar pg, and too be honest, like you it's a case of "you've got to be kidding!". (lol) Seriously, what else can go wrong? Most people (myself included) havent even heard of this, though thanks to google I'm right up there now. This was my 4th preg, my last resulted in my gorgeous 11mth dd, but wondering now if she was the "lucky" egg that got through, not helped by the fact that everyone keeps telling me to be thankful for what I've got, and perhaps stop trying... Anyway, said my bit. Again Pash I'm so so sorry, hope the molar pg is not confirmed (for either of us.)
Thanks for the chance to offload, and good luck everyone
Beaksie
Pash I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your twins, it is so sad. I also hope that it wasn't a molar pg for your sake. Sending big :hugs: to you and your dh. Salt glad to hear that your parents' op went OK I hope they both recover very quickly. Bummer about the spotting today. Beaksie sorry to hear about your loss too, and like Pash I hope it doesn't turn out to be a molar pgncy for you as well. The girls in hear are just fantastic, you definitely know you aren't alone in the way you are feeling.
hello to everyone else, way too tired for personals tonight since it is 12.30am and I have to be up at 7am.
Will try to get on tomorrow night. :hugs: to all those that need them
Thanks everyone for your kind words & thoughts. I think I am going to take a break from BB for a while. I can't imagine reading everyone's ttc posts while maybe having to wait 6mths. At the moment, I don't even feel like ttc at all. I'll pop in & post my results when I get them.
To the PG ladies - Good luck & I hope everything goes wonderfully smoothly for you, and you have an even smoother bub in your arms soon. Bun, I didn't mean to scare you further, I am sure everything will work out. Claire & Lee, thanks for your support & for getting angry for me
To the TTC ladies - Good luck to you as well. I hope your journeys are short, enjoyable and filled with DTD
Rachael - Thanks for the info. Good luck with your journey, I am sure you'll get a BFP soon. Beaksie - Thanks for posting. I feel less alone. Good luck with test results when they come. Belinda - I'm sorry to hear about your friend. And you're right, these things give you perspective, don't they?
Also belated Happy Birthday !! to Leyla & Claire. I hope you both had fantastic days.
Wow this seems so melodramatic! LOL I've tried to quit BB before, and lasted less than a day! So I'll probably be back & posting tomorrow
PS I'd totally recommend a book called A Child Against All Odds, by Robert Winston. Its a really good explanation of conception & fertility treatments, but written in an interesting way. I started reading it cos I hoped it would tell me to stop trying, but I'm continuing to read it cos its so interesting.
Pash - I understand you need to disappear for a while. Do keep us posted on where you are at, and don't feel you can't join in!! We are all here for you.
Salt - are you okay?? Really relieved your parents surgery was successful, you must be to happy about that. You will get some good news to tell them soon enough. Now to get focussed on the next cycle and well timed BDing!
Satya - I hear you re. the family dramas! My family are painful. I didn't invite any of them to our wedding, as we wanted a very small, non dramatic, non-family-issues day! We had our VERY best friends here and had a brilliant day, I was so relaxed. BUT the family did not understand and have made it all about them. Blah blah blah I say! They have only phoned me once, maybe twice in the 3.5 months since my baby died, so they are not exactly supportive, and they wonder why they don't get included. Sorry to rant, it just amazes how much people need to make things about themselves, and can't just be happy for you. Hope your mob sort themselves out soon! Hope you are feeling better today.
Claireabel - hope your cousins little bub grows and thrives straight away. Why did they need an emergency c-sect?
Beaksie - hello, welcome. So sorry about your little bubsies and thanks for joining us.
Bun - 7 weeks - YAH!! It's good to tick over another week. All is just dandy with you, so start packing that suitcase and look forward to your holiday, with bub on board! My baby was conceived in France in June last year. I have lovely memories of the places he came with me on that trip.
Missbelinda - hope your AF has settled down. My first proper af after my baby was born was so horrendous, the heaviest I've every had. I fell pg the next cycle after that. I think I'd had such a good "clear out", and everything was ready for pgcy. Fingers crossed for you...!
Hello to everyone else.
I hope you ladies don't mind me staying here. I know I'm pg, but I won't be getting a scan until 12 weeks, and I won't fully believe I'm pg till I see that little bub on the screen. I feel quite apprehensive too, but I know that worrying about it will not help. I'll I can do is look after myself and try to believe all will be fine. I'm hope that you all fall pregnant asap, waiting is truly the pits.
I've started walking the kids to school, a few kms there and back, and must admit, feel so much better for it. Wishing you all a relaxing weekend filled with things you love.
lisa i am so sorry to hear that. that is so sad. a d&c wont be to bad it does help.
and a big happy birthday to your son 2morrow and im sure you will give him a lovely day. all the focus will be on him you wait and see it will be lovely. just keep smiling chick and you will get through the day fine.
lee well done i hope the bubs stick.and hope everything goes well for you till your 12 week scan. when i fall pg again i dont think i want to look at the screen till they tell me that they found the baby then i will look. very scary for me ecspecialy after my last 12 week scan last week.
pash hope you have a nice relaxing time from bb. dont be away to long. hope you have good news for us all when you get back.
Oh Lisa, I'm so sorry! That is heartbreaking news! Thinking of you.
Pash, what a body blow. I am terribly sorry you've lost your twins. I was hoping, hoping, hoping that everything would be all right. Now I'm praying that you get your results back soon and that they show it wasn't a molar pg. You poor love! I hope you won't need to be away long.
Lee, wishing you big fat *Happy Scan Vibes* for your 12-week scan.
Belinda, guess what!! AF arrived today!!! 8 weeks and 3 days since d&C!!! What a wait! I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's death. One of my workmates, someone I was very close to, died of a brain tumour and I then had to write an obituary for him and something for the funeral. It was really hard but I was glad to have the chance to write something for him. I hope the funeral wasn't too difficult for you. *hugs*
Hello Shoegal! Thanks for beckoning me over to this thread! Hoping we have a few more escapees from the Waiting for AF thread soon. Felt like I was on the time-out table FOREVER.
Back later for more personals, it's been hard to catch up! *WAVES* to everyone in the meantime. xoxox
Pash - I'm so sorry honey! What a horrible thing to endure. I truly hope that your test result come back neg for a molar. Just take some time for yourself now and let things happen as they will.
Lisa - Oh... I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. It's just not fair, you really deserve a break. I hope that are ok.
Salt - how are you going sweetie? I hope that everything is well with your folks. Looks like we might be cycle buddies again this month. AF showed her ugly head today.
Big hi to everyone else, sorry for the scant personals... feeling really crap thanks to AF. Starting to think this will never happen for me. DH has convinced me to give it one more go before seeing a FS. I just hope it happens for is this time or I might just freak!
Pash- You will be on my mind, fingers crossed for positive news very soon from the doctor.
Leyla- I totally agree with how annoying it can be, with each AF we kind of have to take a deep breath and wait for this new cycle to bring new hope so here is to hoping that this next month is our month.
las- my heart is breaking for you right now, lets try and keep some hope as you don't know anything for sure quite yet.
Satya- I am sorry for all the drama I hope your doing good!
Come on girls I can't wait to hear some positive news very soon
well girls one week till my dp and i can strat ttc again which is great cant wait, and it works out that i shout be ovulatinga couple days after we can start trying. so fingers crossed.hopefully we wont have to try again after this month.
