Hammi - darn! I was in the Blue Mountains last week!! I guess I could make it up to Alexandria for an initial consult if no one can recommend one closer. Thanks for thinking of me.
Hammi - thinking of you today on Hamish's EDD. I will say a prayer for your angel and you and your DH. I hope all is well and good to hear that a proper AF has arrived - it is all about a new journey. Have you done anything special to remember Hamish? Glad to hear that the lead-up has been worse than the actual day, that is exactly how I felt as well.
Helen - also thinking of you on your angel's EDD. I hope you are okay and managing to get through what can be a very difficult time.
Jo - I responded in the Preg thread but once again you are a wonderful and caring woman and mother and an inspiration for all. The fact that you can ask after all of us when your heart is breaking shows your compassion. I hope we can all offer this same compassion and support in return. Madison is never far from my thoughts and prayers.
so sorry again for the loss of your baby girl. I hope that the tests can reveal a cause and that when you feel up to trying again you can do it with confidence, maybe with extra treatment.
Lan and Helen- hugs to you on your angels' due date. So difficult but maybe passing this milestone will help you face the future. I'm hoping that's the case for me in a week.
Lan, your cycle sounds a bit like mine was, I had a half period and then a real one (real as in it was sooooo heavy) two and a half weeks later. I got pregnant on the second one so hopefully you're back in swing.
Jo, firstly you are an amazing woman. Thinking of all of us when you are going through a horrific time. I am so sorry about your DH family (unfortunately you can not pick family!!!)
Helen & Hammi, wanting to give you lots of for yesterday.
Rozzie - how is the morning sickness going????
Katie - how are you feeling??? and congratulations in getting to your second trimester... yippee
Well for me, I am in for another blood test tomorrow to check ovulation. I am so close I can feel it!!!! Normally I ovulate on day 13, so I will be that tomorrow.
So from 'O' Day, I will be putting the little frostie in around 5 - 6 days later. I am so hoping that I get a sticky one this time and eventually get to hold a little miracle in my arms. I am stressing a little, as I am 38 and don't have much time. We have been TTC for nearly 3 years now.... Oh well got to keep trying....
Well I hate to add to the bad news but things don't look that good for me.
Sorry for the cut and paste.
We were just at the OB's for a scan and although the baby was measuring correctly (roughly, the picture was fuzzy) there was no clear heartbeat. There was sort of a flicker but he couldn't lock on to it to get a rate.
So I have to have blood tests and if they aren't too negative another scan in a week or so. I know for sure my dates are right and at this stage the doctor said the heartbeat is usually very easy to find.
DH is not worried, because this time he doesn't have a bad feeling, which he apparently did as soon as I told him I hadn't felt a movement in a day with Edward. He also thinks the picture was so fuzzy that the doctor may not have been positioning it in the right place.
Anyway, I will have blood taken tomorrow then ring up on Monday to find out the results. I suppose I don't feel too bad, even though I was very positive about this one I guess at least we got pregnant very quickly and if need be we can do it again. I don't like this in between place though, I just wish I knew one way or another.
Sorry to hear that you have to worry, Rozzie. But it doesn't sound like bad news yet. Keep us updated, and I'll be anxiously waiting to see how your test turns out.
Sue, for your upcoming frostie.
Lan and Helen, I hope your EDDs have left you with a little more peace. It must have been a tough day or week.
It's lovely to keep watching Katie's ticker go up and up and up!
Jo, thanks for the encouragement. I'm trying my best to sleep every minute I can -- or rather, I don't have to try so hard, as it comes pretty naturally. I want the time to just pass; I feel like I'm in quite a numb sort of limbo right now.
Here's hoping for some BFPs this month; we need some good news!
