Ugh, I'm quite possibly the most horrible person ever. A friend of ours is 9 weeks pregnant. I'm pretty sure I turned a bright shade of green when DF told me.
Sweetie, you are not horrible. PERIOD. It's natural to envy and feel the green monster coming out when someone announces their pregnancy (apart, of course, from all of our lovelies here who we can't wait to get their BFP!!!!). It's hard hearing of others getting preggo (with no apparent effort and not having any probs with their pregnancies) when all you can think of is TTC a bub (and you're still not pregnant). Don't worry, when you're UTD you will not feel this way. Big hugs sweets
Hello, it's me. Been having heaps of trouble getting into BB. Stupid system!
Yah, I'm CD27 and actually feel quite premenstrual. Having slight cramps in abs. I fear the witch is coming! I'm OK about it now but when I see her I'll have another fit I'm sure.
What about you Diana? Anything different? I guess you can't tell with all the hormones they've pumped you with. My BB's always swell so that's no indication. Apart from that - nothing!
Lan, I hope the witch stays away for you I remember when I was pg with Jasmine I thought AF was coming for sure, so you never know.
Diana & Dee, still doing lots of prayers for you both . Hold on tight little ones and grow nicely for mummy!
Diana, I agree with Beata ring the OB. When I saw my OB for appointments around the time I lost Jasmine, when my OB saw me out of his office, he would say 'your right' as in don't pay at reception, but then a week or so later I would get an invoice in the mail. I ended up with about 4 of these! I am very sure that it was just the receptionist sending out the bills, not knowing that the OB was happy for me not to pay. I was even charged for going in to fill out a form to be admitted into hospital for the labour! I was so distresssed that at the time I just paid them, but if I got a bill now I would call. So you go for it and call on principal of your situation as well.
Teagz, I second that your not horrible at all, its a very natural reaction. Your turn will come soon hun. Really hoping that you get a wonderful 21st B'day present. Also, you raised an interesting question earlier re: whether to 'act like your pg' when ttc by not drinking, eating certain foods etc. I was wondering what people did as well, so put that question out again. I have been 'acting pg' so no drinking etc, but don't know the facts on this one. I read that you shouldn't drink from 5-days before ttc either but I'm not sure of the facts
Beata, so great to have you back, glad your little holiday was nice. I'm sorry that you hate work so much. I can understand you wanting to stay due to maternity leave, I am actually ready for a move myself, but want to stay for that reason, but at the same time my work environment is fine, so staying doesn't effect my happiness. I say if it is effecting your happiness and emotional wellbeing, its simply not worth it. You never know a move could actually pay you more so potentially equal out to your current salary + maternity leave, you never know
Noni, your story is so sad, it's just not right at all losing a little one like that. I really pray that you get a BFP soon and have a very uneventful 9-months
As for me O is approaching, YAH! so its action stations, I really hope this is it
thanks for your words berry1. i just got a letter in the mail now, they want us to come in next wednesday..i thought it was the 18th but anyway they want us to come meet with the tema of specialist that took our bloods, his and did the post mortem. hubby has a meting 30 minutes from the time so i think i'll have to reschedule. i feel good in a way it will give some sort of closure and in another way i'm pretty scared of what they will say and also going back to that hospital! i hope i can walk away with more of an answer. it's okay though, i guess.
teagz, you're not bad at all.i have an acquaintance (hubby's work mate's wife) that wwe use see now and agian and she is due a day after my boy was due. we were so excited and planning mummy groups etc..i haven't seen her since the week before we lost bub. i just can't stomach it. i don't want to see her belly or her baby for now. i feel bad cos she hasn't done anything wrong and i want her to enjoy it. so you're not bad. i think sensetive people who care about you should understand.you'll be fine hun
Noni, it will be good for you & DH to get some more information on what happened and to, as you said, get closure. Going back to the hospital won't be easy, I can understand that, it can feel quite strange and upsetting, but I really hope the visit give you the answers you deserve. We had an autopsy done for Jasmine and I have the prelimenary results, but the full results are yet to come in. It can be hard. Thinking of you.
