TTC after Miscarriage or Loss ~ March 08

[Canary]

Hi Girls,
I'm just popping in for a quick catch up. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to berecca and Brockstar. The laptop has decided not to cooperate this evening, so I am using an ancient machine and therefore wont add any emoticons as I'll be here all night if I do!
Berecca- try not to panic. (easier said than done) Probably just a bit of a bleed because AF would have been here. Remember that you are doing everything humanly possible to make this little bub as healthy as can be. Have lots of sticky vibes and baby dust, I'll be thinking of you with my fingers crossed.

AJC- I just want to send you huge hugs. xx Someimes, the world seems to be pregnant, doesnt it! I am so sorry that your trip to the spa was not as mind- clensing as you had hoped. Grit your teeth and you'll get through this tough spot, we're here to help you along too. ** Hugs. **

Tina- So sorry about your SIL. Cant believe that she would be so insensitive. IKWYM about being reminded of sad times. This weekend, I put on a bath robe (of all things!) and immediately remembered that the last time I wore it was when I was in hospital following the m/c. Now I know that your SIL will be a bit more of a reminder than a bath robe, and you cant really take her off and put her back in the cupboard, so I hope that she is a bit more understanding. Maybe you could have a word with your Bro and ask him mention that this visit will be tough for you?

Hi everyone else, I hope that you are all doing OK and looking forward to a fab easter.

Hi everyone - up early as I have to fly to Tasmania today for a meeting. Very tired after yesterday. Would love to be sleeping in.

Berecca - if you are concerned about the bleed, give your doctor a call. With my last preg I always ummed and aaghed about calling my dr, but this time around for my own piece of mind I plan to have him on speed dial (it also doesn't hurt that this new ob is very understanding). I am sure the bleed is implantation, and generally I believe it is only a concern if it turns bright red, but it never hurts to ask a dr. I will send you some sticky vibes as I know how stressful and sign of anything out of the ordinary is! Stay strong.

Tina - I am so sorry that you are going to have to face your SIL. I think you need to be kind to yourself, and if at any time you find it too much then just get up and walk away (to the kitchen or something). You need to be a little selfish and put yourself first - actually at this stage in your life it is not selfish at all. So do whatever you have to do to get through it. If your SIL does not understand, than that shows she lacks empathy. Take care and I hope it is not too difficult for you. Also let your DH know that you will find it tough, that way he will be prepared for what you do.

Ok, I had better stop typing and get ready to catch this plane. How lovely it would be to miss it....okay enough daydreaming. It is so hard to go to work or do work when my mind is on far more important matters.

Have a good day everyone.
