TTC AFTER Late Loss/Recurrent Miscarriage/ Stillbirth

[mummabec]

Hi all,

I was very excited to find a when I PedOAS this morning!!!! I'm very very happy, though did have a little teary in the shower when I thought back to not so long ago when I found out I was pregnant with Luca.

I go back to work tomorrow. I'm quite anxious about it. I'd love to fast forward for a week and not have to worry about the settling in part.

Next monday night there is a memorial service at the Womens and the pastoral care lady has asked me to take part in the ceremony - should be really lovely. Although such mixed feelings towards the hospital, as they didn't give me proper treatment with Luca, but I'm relying on them to bring my next bub safely into the world. I'm hoping the service there brings some healing.

On the weekend DH and I planted a mulberry tree for Luca at my dad's weekend property in Araleun. It was a very special occasion for us. Our surname means mulberry in Italian so that's what we chose. They grow very large! I have pictures on my facebook page if anyone would like to look Log In | Facebook

I've got lots of news all of a sudden!

Chez, you must just about be on your holiday by now! Hope it works wonders. Nudge nudge.

Bec, my DH is awful sick too. Anyone would think the sky is falling in. Heaven forbid if they had to have the babies. We'd be extinct!

Hi to everyone else too.

xx Bec.

Bec, that is fantastic news congratulations I am so very happy for you . It sounds like you have lots of mixed emotions at the moment. Really lovely thing to plant the Mulberry tree in honour of Luca, a beautiful way of having a 'physical' reminder of him in the form of a lovely strong tree. I hope the memorial service is also another healing time for you. I wish you a happy & healthy 9-months

Cheryl, count down to your holiday now. Have a ball won't you! You really deserve this break and I pray that your BFP is just around the corner hun

Speak soon

Planting the Mulberry Tree for Luca is a lovely idea, we would like to do the same thing for Riley when we move to our new home. I hope the memorial service gives you some healing and i can understand your mixed feelings towards to hospital
DH tells me that men have a higher pain tollerance than women and when they are sick they're REALLY sick!!! It's ok though i slapped him good!!!

Bec - woohoo! Congratulations! That is amazing news. I am SOOOOOOO happy for you. Wow that's three BFPs in as many weeks isn't it? Or at least it feels like it is!! I can understand your mixed feelings at the moment hun, but do try not to worry too much. And I hope the memorial service helps you along your grieving pathway. You are such a strong lady and I am sure you'll be an amazing mother to your new bub!

Hi ladies

DH tells me that men have a higher pain tollerance than women and when they are sick they're REALLY sick!!! It's ok though i slapped him good!!!

Samcougar - I loved it! As if men have a higher tolerance level to pain than women! Just see one of them have a bikini wax and all doubt as to who can handle pain disappears - of course it's us women who are the stronger! They're just kidding themselves!

Hi Aries - not many of us non-pg ones left in here now... hopefully it will be our turn very soon and we can start our own run of BFPs! Or even better, join onto the current ones. And everyone else in here who is still waiting and testing and waiting...

Hi to Beata, Megan and Bec, our pg sisters-in-arms. Sending you all lots of positive thoughts and

to everyone else!

AFM, started taking fresh royal jelly yesterday (yuck!) but apparently it is very good for improving egg quality (and sperm quality too) and general health and wellbeing. My AP suggested I take it when I asked about it. I had read a bit about it on another BB thread. Had some EWCM today and even though OPK is still a faint line, we DTD anyway, in the hope that we catch this egg. I have felt definite pains in the ovaries over the last few days so hopefully things are finally starting to happen in that department. Wouldn't it be great to come back from our holliday with a BFP! Speaking of which, 2 working days to go

Take care everybody,

Thanks everybody!

We're going out to dinner tonight to celebrate being on holiday.

Driving home from work was a little sad this afternoon. The last time I was leaving on holiday was back in February when we were getting married and going on our honeymoon, and I was almost 16 weeks pg. So that was a bit sad. But I am determined to enjoy our holiday and relax.

I'll be thinking of you girls. I really hope that we see the run of BFPs continue in this thread

Take care everybody See you in 5 weeks!
love
