There is no way to do personals there is so much going on. I have been keeping up a bit but went camping this weekend and just got back today.
Treelo sorry about the pox outbreak and AF, trying times but it will get better just know we are thinking about you.
Satya~ I honestly have a really good feeling for you and I just know it will happen soon and stick, I JUST KNOW IT
I am doing ok, living life and trying to finish up school I am 3 weeks late Af but I am almost certain that I just skipped a month and it will be right on track this month. DH and I BDed on the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 10th and 12th we arn't "trying" the only thing I am keeping track of is bding I figure if I get AF on the 24th or so then I could have O'ed my regular time if not than thats ok.
Kiwigirl~ Your on my mind I hope the bleeding stops soon and your back on ttc.
I almost forgot... I graduate this coming Saturday and I have a huge project for a class due this week it is on relationships, trust, cell phones its completely annoymous but i need 200 people to take my survey by Wednesday it only takes 5 min. or less. just copy paste link and it will bring you to it. I would appreciate it soooooo much!!!
Hi everyone, I have been following these threads (best I can trying to work out abbreviations) it's strangely comforting knowing other people feel exactly as I do......I miscarried nearly two weeks ago I have stopped bleeding now and am nearly back to normal so I guess I wait to have a Period now before I can try again?
Please can you tell me with the abbreviations you all use what some of them are Like AF,BFP,DH? UM sorry that;s all I remember hahaha but any you think I need to know would be great! I have looked on this site to try find them but no luck....I can never find my login number so have to keep resetting that which is frustrating too! also just curious why all of a sudden is it time for a new thread? is there a limit on posts or something? sorry for all the questions but I would like to be able to get to know you all a bit better!
Thanks Dawn
Thanks Treelo.......ahhhhh she says now they make sense must admit AF I would never have guessed Did I read you have chicken Pox? you poor thing if you have.....Don't they call it shingles when you are an adult?
Satya: I am sorry for your loss and I understand your returning to work Drama I have yet to do that.....I think I will return Monday though....I wasn;t in a hurry to return as I have been really sick and besides I am a Paramedic so I wasn't ready to look after lots of other sick people when I was feeling Crap! selfish huh?
Hi Dawneee, sorry for your loss. I can give you some more abbreviations DF=dear fiance, DP=dear partner, DD=dear daughter, DS=dear son. They create new threads when the old ones get too full. I hope your stay here is a short one.
Just a quick drop in. Have already had to deal with the news of someone else's pregnancy - luckily not someone I personally have to deal with, just someone I know of but it got to me because she's accidentally pregnant and doesn't know who the father is.... unbelievable.
My temperature finally went right down today (it had been dropping ever so slightly) so now I'm waiting to O. Last time it happened 2 weeks after the m/c so I will just have to wait and see if it happens again this time.... if it does it should happen in within the next week.
Sorry for the lack of personals but I have not had time to read through the posts. I will have to try and catch up on them.
Dawnee - No i dont have chicken pox, my husband got it two weeks ago and today my 3 year old son came out in spots. Im waiting for my older son to get it now. But it all makes me believe that everything happens for a reason. I had my m/c two weeks before my dh got them.
Satya - just want to send you huge hugs sweety....just take each day as it comes.
MegsMum Congratulations on the BFP! Sorry this is so late. I wish you a happy & healthy pg with a gorgeous scrummy bub in your arms in 8mths. Zennie Congratulations on the BFP I hope you and DP work something out. Neither you nor your bub need the stress right now. TwoMums Megan I am so sorry to read about your dad. It must be a really difficult thing to go through, like entering another phase of your life. I hope you feel free to put down your feelings about that in here as well. Good luck with the tww. Cherie I know this is a bit late, but your mum's poem is beautiful & touching. Kerry I didn't get the job in the dodgy area. This job is a much better one, but I will be working with DH! Don't have to do nearly as much travel as you seem to do tho! Satya I'm sorry you've had a difficult return to work. It will get easier. From what I've read, IVF sounds really really hard. There seems to be likelihood of disappointment at so many points in the cycle. You can concieve naturally, and that is the main thing that IVF seems to help. Although I think they can also screen for embryos that aren't growing well, and reduce the likelihood of m/c a bit that way. Have you thought of seeing a recurrent m/c clinic at the same time? Rachael :hugs: You poor thing. A m/c is hard enough without having to go thru the same m/c twice. If it helps, its exactly what I keep thinking "I wish I was (still) pregnant". I assumed you'd taken a break from work? Can you not take some time off and/or get someone else to do your work for a while? Can your manager not tell the client that you are having some health probs and to lay off a bit? I hate it when clients treat you like a robot. I hope the bleeding stops soon and the anemia eases up. Big zionsmom I hope your missing AF stays missing because of a BFP. Good luck with it. Oh and I filled out your survey. SweetPetite How exciting! You are so close to starting ttc. I wish you all the best. Las IVF is not an easy thing to go thru and to m/c after a successful cycle must be devastating. I hope it all gets easier for you, and that your break makes you even stronger. Treelo How stressful! What a relief it must have been to find Lawson again! I hope you never have to go thru that again. Bummer about AF tho. LittleScottishBoy Oooh! You're in the best part of the cycle. Happy dancing! Dawnee Welcome but at the same time, I'm sorry you have to be in here. Its not selfish at all to look after yourself first. Its responsible.
I haven't started chemo yet. The last week my HCG has moslty been dropping but v slowly. So the doc is happy to monitor my levels for a while in case it goes down naturally. So at the moment, I'm living BT to BT. If I get a high result, I'll have to start chemo and not be able to TTC for 18mths. But if it goes down, I wait till the next BT. Makes my life hard to plan, but could be worse. After a long dark miserable period, I finally feel positive again. And have a little hope that I might be able to start ttc sometime this year instead of Jan 2009!
I've been keeping myself busy with shopping, picnic-ing, partying and am going to join the gym again tonight. I need to be able to fit into my new clothes after all the boozing!
zionsmum - I'll do it after my job interview tomorrow
pash - good luck with the chemo when you do start it.
Satya - You know we love you here, so I hope you feel better soon. I actually had an episode today - I went to visit my grandmother and this woman stopped right in front of me... Pram and all and I almost bawled my eyes out because the bub was just so gorgeous and I can't believe that I'll never get to meet my lil angel *sighs* Sorry!
Me, well I'm ok - went to poker tonight and came 4th! Yay! Anyways, I've been getting really bad cramps, although my bbs really hurt and I'm smelling things alot stronger again - I'm not going to take a test yet, not until it goes past the 7days and I still haven't seen AF
Hi, this is my first post in the M/C thread. Thought I better introduce myself as I will be TTC again soon.
I had a D & C 6 weeks ago and I'm still waiting for AF, I think she might be due to visit soon, or so I'm hoping. I have continued to temp and FF said I O'd on 1st Aug, so I'm 13Dpo, I had a massive temp drop this morning and felt a little crampy today. Timing was not great for catching the egg though, which is not a bad thing, the OB did say wait for AF before trying again.
I hope I won't be around for long but also wishing everyone here also gets to graduate to a BB group too.
Zionsmom: Filled out your survey. Much luck on your project!
Charlotte: Welcome. I am sorry for your loss. Seems we are almot TTC kin in here. I had a D&C 5 weeks ago this week (Jul 12) and also O'ed on Aug 1. And I'm still waiting for AF. Hope we both get it very soon!

Treelo: My, my you are the busy bee! Sorry to hear about AF but at least you know everything is back to normal. And with all the stress and craziness you’ve been through lately, that’s quite an accomplishment! Sorry to hear that your DS has the chickenpox – I hope his case is a very mild one.
Hj1981: Welcome! Sorry for your loss. I think you will find this to be a good place to cry, rant, worry and rejoice.
Satya: I’m sorry going back to work has been so tough. I’m glad to hear this latest pg news is not someone in your immediate vicinity – hopefully that will help some. Those ‘accidents’ are so hard to bear when you’ve been through so much trying to get there. My sister had one last year (at least she knows who the father is!). So when I m/c’ed, she practically had a newborn. On top of that, we were giving her some things (like a bouncy seat) that she could ‘borrow’ but I really thought I’d be needing them back sooner than later. Now every time I visit and see that stuff it just reminds me that I won’t be needing it back as soon as I’d hoped. But I’m still taking it back when her DS outgrows it – I still plan on needing it again. And you’ll be needing all that stuff soon too. We are all pulling for you!
LizJessie: Its seems that sometimes not trying is the best time for that BFP! You never know. But if it stays a BFN for you, I hope AF shows up quickly so you can make it happen. Good luck on your job interview!
Well, I think I may have passed a hurdle with DH - what a relief! I hadn’t brought up TTC yet b/c I figured I should wait one cycle and that would give me time to figure out how to broach the subject. But DH brought it up himself! Seems he was under the impression we had to wait 6 wks after the D&C just to BD. I explained to him that it was only 2 and that’s when he said oh, maybe 6 wks to try again. So I told him about how technically we could try right away but many doctors recommend one cycle so that’s what I was waiting for. But I also told him that I was past the time when I might get pg so he was ready to get it on! And he didn’t even bring up using protection. So hopefully from here on out I can just do as before and let him know when it’s the right time. Come on AF!!
I actually thought she was coming. Friday I had a bit of bleeding but it was dark reddish-brownish. I figured it was just the end of the D&C before the beginning of AF. And for the 2 days before that I had to wee often and was in more chocolate than I should have been. I thought for sure AF was coming. But then nothing. Saturday I smelled blood which is also often a prelude and Sunday I had quite a bit of cm show up on my knickers. I don’t expect AF until sometime mid-end this week but could that little bit have been AF – just screwed up b/c of the D&C?
Sorry so long! Best to all!

Hey~ I felt weird asking people to take my survey on here but thank you to all who did, it really means a lot to me. I know we are all busy and stressed right now. Again I am soooo grateful! Grad countdown on!
Good luck with your project, Diane! I did the survey last night. You'll have a few Aussies there, now - hope we don't skew your data Happy graduation this Saturday - so close
Pash, glad you didn't end up in the dodgy area and working with DH will have its bonuses! Woohoo on the hCG coming down of its own accord, that every bt brings good news so that you don't have to have the chemo treatment. Been thinking of you heaps!
Welcome Charlotte77, you've landed in a very supportive thread. Look forward to enjoying the rollercoaster ride that is TTC after M/C or Loss!
Keeping my fingers crossed for you, LizJessie, well done on the fourth place!
Satya, hope it's O around the corner for you. Temperature drop is a good sign.
Hi there Dawnee, yes the threads tend to change after about 150 posts. The TTC 1-6 months turn over very fast so tend to get a bit bigger. Good luck with your return to work on Monday.
Yay on the HPTs Sharon! We can be PIACaholics together!
Ok must run - today I go to Sydney! Big temperature rise for me this morning, hope it's a good sign and not that I was just hot and didn't sleep fabulously. Look forward to catching up again on Thursday night.
Welcome to the thread Charlotte - I hope your stay here is a short one, unlike myself. I was almost on my way out of here recently only to find I had to stay.
Treelo - you poor thing having chicken pox in the household. I remember having them as a kid and I was miserable - must have made my mum's life hell.
Pash - I don't think we have recurrent m/c clinics here in Australia (if we do ladies please correct me) you just see a gyno or a FS which I've already done. I have written to my gyno with my thoughts on giving clomid a couple of goes (cos I know if I will chicken out if I went to see him, plus he doesn't want to see me til after the lap anyway) so I will just wait and see if he gets back to me about that. I'm pretty sure that's what I will push for anyway after it as I really don't think I need IVF, maybe just some drugs to help things along. I hope your HCG goes down soon so you can avoid chemo.
Lizjessie - It's so horrible when stuff like that happens. At least you held the tears away. After my second m/c I burst in to tears when the only top I liked in Big W was a maternity one - it was just awful, luckily my DF was with me so he just hugged and kissed me right there in the middle of the store until I came good again - it can hit you when you least expect it.
Anyway, I'd better get to work. Hi to everyone I've missed. So hard trying to catch up after a few days off.
Okay next question I feel really silly but what does the temp rise and drops mean.....I am very lucky to have conceived no problem before so have never had to know this stuff! and I've read some people saying they fall again straight away....without waiting for a cycle? I thought you would have to have at least one AF before trying again?
