TTC AFTER Late Loss/Recurrent Miscarriage/ Stillbirth Sept 2009

[Miss.B]

Hi ladies,

Sorry I've been MIA, but now that I am a lady of leasure (I finished work at the end of December with a nice package!!) I have been jetting around Australia and it's been lovely. We went to QLD on Boxing Day and then to Lorne here on the Great Ocean Road for a few days which was lovely. Everything is well at my end, just getting bigger and more uncomfortable but I kick myseld every time I have a whinge..lol.

Dory, I've read your story about losing your precious babies, and it just broke my heart. You are such a strong lady to have survived it all, and to keep on going with your TTC journey. I admire your strength and courage, and wish and pray for your well deserved BFP hun. I will be thinking of you coming up to your twins EDD, and as for not knowing what to do for Amelia's angelversary, I hear you hun, I still haven't had a proper 'ceremony' to burry Joshua's ashes, I don't know if I will ever be ready to do that hun. We'll see.

Cheryl, your holiday sounds so nice, I pray that your dream does come true darl!

Blessedatlast, sorry to hear about the thrush hun. I have it too ATM, I stopped taking my Inner Health Plus when I went to QLD and now the wretched thing in back!! I hate having it and the itchiness is driving me mad! Fingers crossed for a lovely BFP for you too lovie!

Gigi, sorry about your BFN hun, praying you'll have more luck next time hun

Aries, I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you hun, I hope AF has stayed away for you

Hi to everyone else I have missed and heaps of baby dust and sticky vibes for everyone in this thread!

Made me chuckle..now we have to work on you growing bigger and more uncomfortable and being kicked from the inside. Sorry, i hope this is not totally inappropriate but as i was reading your post i am thinking...wait on who is this, pregnant?, no. Oh god. You really spun me around...obviously not concentrating.

Sorry everyone for no personals. Dory sorry hun, will get to reply to you soon brave girl. You have taken my heart for bit.
AF is here and I am not happy Jan...geting there, just tired, so tired of it all.
Night all. xoxo

Gigi1 - it's easy not to concentrate with so much going on. You made me laugh - and boy do I need it. Sorry about old AF. It's a bummer.

Beata70 - I know how you feel - but you know just because you've experienced loss of your precious ones, it doesn't mean you need to feel guilty for the usual range of emotions in your pregnancy, including a bit of whinging about how you're feeling. Besides girl, you are hormomal. Go with it! Thanks for the compliment. This wisdom thing? Hard earnt. I should wear it like a badge of honour huh? But more seriously I do really understand what you mean about possibly never being ready.... for me it's that I really don't want to have to say goodbye again. Bless little Joshua, your little saint.

Blessedatlast - not long to go really until TAFE starts up again......

Chez67 - are you going mental in the 2WW?

Teagz & Aries - how you doing? Hope you're ok.

AFM going for some bloods and gtt (glucose tolerance testing) tomorrow to try and get to the bottom of why I am feeling so physically miserable lately. Ironic, never got to that stage in the pregnancies.. oh well at least I will know what the deal is.

Went to celebrate my brothers birthday yesterday. Didn't think he'd be here with us this year after a near fatal accident on 13 Jan 09. It was just really nice to catch up with him and the family.

Thanks ladies for your words of support. I am going to be selfish as I still need them. Having a pretty rough time of it for a whole bunch of reasons. Coming here is a bit of a highlight actually. Anyway, better go wash that car, it doesn't wash itself.

Take care lovelies.

thanks for checking up on me girls. I hardly need it - and probably don't deserve it as I don't offer you girls any words as nearly as often as i should!

Blessed, bubs was due yesterday! Little ratbag seems to have made himself comfy in there. But that's ok, it means he'll be a snuggly newborn for just that little while longer
I'm sorry to hear about the thrush as well, i had so much trouble with that while TTC it drove me almost insane. Not only because of the physical side of it but emotionally because you have to wait for it to sort itself out, and god damn it's hard waiting around when all you want to do is get activly cracking on The Baby Dream.

Chez, unfortunately my sniffles and sore throat have developed into a full blown cold, so I'm very very glad I didn't meet up with you last tuesday! (I mean that in the kindest way possible, btw ) I think I'm heading toward the tail end of it now though, the worst seemed to be yesterday.

Hi ladies

Well I'm back at work and back into the routine of life including going to the gym at 6.30 in the morning! I must be crazy but I do enjoy it when I get there, just getting out of bed was hard this morning.

Dory - thank you for sharing your story with us about your 3 beautiful angels. I was reading your story while sitting in the Q club waiting for my flight, with tears streaming down my face. It was probably for the best that I was in public otherwise I probably would have cried much more in private. You are such a strong lady to mentally be in the place you are now and have the capacity to offer others support after your difficult year. You're amazing On a different note, I hope the Dr can get to the bottom of your fatigue etc soon. It must be frustrating for you.

Teagz - sorry to hear about your cold I hope your little one stays put just a little bit longer so you can recover but I am sure you are eager to hold him in your arms sooner rather than later. I hope everything goes well. I can't wait to hear your birth announcement.

Gigi1 - sorry to hear that AF has arrived Bring on 2010 and lots of BFPs in this thread! I have such a good feeling about this year for all of us

Beata - you sound like you had a lovely time on your holiday. I hope you are doing well.

Blessedatlast - I hope the thrush has cleared up How annoying for you. Have you tried taking the Inner Health Plus capsules that Beata mentioned? Last year I felt like I was getting thrush and started taking them straight away and all of the symptoms disappeared. I stayed on them for a few months afterwards, and touch wood, I haven't had any recurrences.

AFM, yes I am going crazy in the 2WW. I have had some strange symptoms which I am trying hard to figure out. I was very emotional and moody yesterday. I watched the Sex and the City Movie which DH got me for Christmas. And I cried, not just at the pg/baby part, but other parts which wouldn't normally set me off, and didn't when I saw it at the cinema. Yesterday I was hungry all of the time - I needed to eat every 2 hours, which is pretty unusual for me. And yesterday afternoon and today I have had some pains in the pelvic region, a bit like AF pains, but not quite. This morning at the gym I was feeling nauseas, and then at 10am I got this sudden rush of nausea, and I just knew if I didn't eat I would throw up! I haven't felt like that since I was pg, but it started at about 6wks last time. Since I only O'd last Wednesday, surely it would be way too early for pg symptoms? Has anyone else had early pg symptoms like these? I want to POAS but I think it is way too early to do that, so yes Dory, I am going crazy

Anyway, must go. Take care and babydust and stickyvibes to all.

Gigi1- Sorry AF is here

Chez- I normally have yakult when I have thrush that seems to help, just keep forgetting to buy it!! I hope all your symptoms are because you are UTD!!!


Teagz- Are you still there?? Can't wait to hear the good news

Beata- How far along are you?? Must be getting there??

For me, well I went 7 days exactly with no bleeding.. but it is fairly light and seems to have stopped today so fingers crossed it was a little 2 day implantation bleed??? Lol, I doubt it.. Would be too early for that wouldn't it.. Hmm.. maybe.. With the twins I got what must have been implantation bleeding, I just got a light pinky discharge, but because I wasn't obsessed back then I wouldn't have a clue when in my cycle it was.. I only did a HPT when I hadn't had a proper period for 9wks.. Could not imagine leaving it that long now Lol!! Anyway, I am having a blast with my Mum and brothers.. We are going to Movie World today.. Yay!!! My girlfriend went on wild rides when she was TTC she said it pushed the sperm up there lol.. Fingers crossed!!

Hi to anyone else I have missed.. Gotta go, still in jarmies and mum will be here in 10!!

[helle]

Blessed, yep still here Went to the Dr's yest and I'm 2cm dilated. If nothing pans out I'm being induced Monday. So, I'm gonna be a mummy by at least next tuesday!
