Hi Sue it seems the results have given you some insight into what is going on. I agree with Hammi that now at least you know what the problem may be and you can work towards eliminating it and bringing yourself closer to that much wanted bub.
I think I have heard of the IVF chromasome testing in the embryo - is it called PGD???
I can't wait to get my tests done - Im a bit of a control freak so I hate "not knowing". For me, I believe that as long as the problem is identified it can be solved!!!!
Tildy - I just wanted to send you a big hug Reading your story broke my heart and I will admit I cried. No one had the right to treat you or your precious baby in such a way. I hope the coming months brings you some peace, and know that your angel is always with you.
Hi to everyone - too tired to do personals at the moment. Will try later.
But just to give you all a little lift - I have felt the baby kick on the outside for the first time. I feel I have really turned a corner and knowing that my baby is now big enough to actually kick that hard is a lovely feeling. I think at times I never thought I would get to this point - but here I am. And I know you will all have this pleasure to enjoy yourselves soon enough.
Yay for baby kicks. Tell us more about your progress Katie and Jo!
I read about Mel1977's loss in the Pregnancy After Late Loss thread yesterday and I have been freaking out ever since. To lose one baby is devastating enough, but for it to happen again... I don't know her at all but my heart caved in as soon as I read about her sad news.
Hammi - I was going to let you all know the other day about Mel's baby Joshua but I couldn't bring myself to. As you can see the passing of Joshua after just 1 week on this earth has really shaken all of us ladies in the Preg after Late Loss thread. I know Mel not just through these forums but also through a support group we go to, and it breaks my heart to know that she has once again lost her precious baby boy. She is a wonderful woman and has helped me so much since losing Nathaniel right through to getting to this stage of my preg - in fact she was the one who told me to call my current ob who you all know I love. My heart breaks for her each day and also for Nicholas and Joshua.
If anything ladies, it should remind us to appreciate every day we have and to never give up hope no matter how hard or dark the times may be.
So big hugs everyone and stay strong that your turn will come and we will all have the chance to hold our precious babies one day soon.
Also...just to bring some hope. This baby was kicking the hell out of me last night. It is the first time I have ever felt proper kicks and it is kind of freaky. Yet everytime I got DH's hand so he could feel the baby would go silent - we had images of our little girl giggling away very cheekily. He thinks she is going to be like me!
Yes I was so sorry and tears flowed when I was reading about Mel. I can not fully comprehend something like that and was so upset for her and DH.
Katiegirl, it was so nice to see a good story today... especially the big kicks all last night. I dream of when that will happen for me and long to have it soon.
With me, I still havent fully got AF. Just spotting, though my temperatures have dipped to close to the cover line. I am sure I will have an enjoyable weekend with it... he he he
I wish everyone a safe and happy weekend and look forward to speaking to you all next week.
Reading about Mel1977 truly broke my heart. I've told some of the girls at work about it and even they shed a tear or two, despite none of us knowing her at all. I can't imagine how painful it must be for her.
I'm glad to hear about Katiegirl being kicked though!
When I see all of you talking about temperatures and I was at the beginning of a cycle I figured I might try charting my temp now, too. However, since one of our two beloved little cat babies never came home on Tuesday night and has been missing since, I've been a wreck -- I finally started to see a hint of light in the future after losing our baby and BOOM, I found out that the devil wasn't done with me. I haven't slept properly for days, I am puking and not able to eat, my temp has been 36.9, 36.2 and then 36.8 the last three days, and both me and the hubby have admitted that we can't bring ourselves to have sex right now. I have no idea if some of you think it's dumb to be so broken up over a cat, but we definitely have been kicked when we were down.
Katiegirl--Congrats on the baby kicks! Sounds like you've got yourself a little gymnast in there! How cute, I can just imagine her in there giggling, not letting her daddy feel her kicks! See, she's testing him already!
Tildy--Oh, I don't think it's dumb about the kitten at all! My DF found some ducklings at his work that had to be moved, and the mom flew away and left them. So he brought them home, and they were so cute, and everyone loved them, and we showed them off in DS class... We awoke in the morning to find only 2 left alive. By the next morning they were all gone, and the last one we really thought would make it, it cuddled and snuggled with me all day long, but before bed that night I went to check on it, and he was gone. It was a painful blow... too familiar, too soon... so I know exactly how you feel! I'm so sorry! Seems like things like that always happen at the most inopportune times. Yesterday I was researching something on a site I must've gone to when I was pg, and it said "welcome back, Jenny, your baby is 30 weeks today". It was a pretty big downer... and then Mel's story just broke my heart... I'm for you that you find your strength and keep your faith! Don't forget we're all here for you!
