TTC AFTER Late Loss/Recurrent Miscarriage/ Stillbirth 2010

[dory]

Gigi - sweetie I know that feeling - "stop the world I want to get off... just for a while". I know you're busy and you have a lot on. Especially this coming week. I just got a delivery of some story boards from an outdoor photo shoot that DH and I had late last year. My idea to celebrate us as a couple so we could realise just how beautiful and strong we are. The photos are great. One of my regrets, like you is not having nice photos of pregnancy. I like you was going to get to it. It is such a gift, and when its taken away, its hard to remember just how beautiful it was. I am hoping to get just abit more along before I do something about it. I know that by waiting I risk losing, but am just not ready just now to take the plunge. Who would think having some photos taken can be such a big thing? Thankyou, sincerely, for your offer. I will let you know. You'd have to travel because travelling is beyond me for a while.

Susie - glad you had AF turn up. I must have forgotten you weren't going to post until you were TCC. Look forward to hearing fromyou again soon. The month will fly......

Crumpet - I was under a general anaesthetic. Obviously it was relatively light considering I didn't need to be under for a long time. I asked the Ob and that's how he does them. I then read a blog about a woman who had one done under spinal tap, and I decided to be honest I would rather not know, and not be aware that my legs were waving in the air with my naff exposed. There is a big difference between a theoretical knowledge and actual knowledge of something. There is so much indignity about the tcc journey, that I was happy to blissfully unaware of how it all actually happened. It's a bit like sausages - I quite like them, but I really prefer not to see them made. The frequent internal exams I get to have now are undignified but helpful to reaching the goal. I am really glad I was in the land of nod for the suture is all I can say. But other people might like to feel they are participating.

Charli - glad your hols were good.
