So near, yet so far! Holiday villa for those waiting TTC#1 having suffered mc

Hi all,

I need to take a holiday with some lovely peeps in the same position; I'm TTC#1 but had 2 mc's this year and now discovered my luteal phase is only 9 days (anything under 10 considered a defect) and probably the reason that I cannot retain a pregnancy.

If you have yet to be blessed with motherhood because mc has cruelly taken away your chance so far, then this is the place to retreat for some R & R whilst your body recovers.

Pull up a sun lounger, and lie back for some lighthearted banter and support whilst monitoring cycles or undergoing investigation and wash down the Vit B6, Agnus Castus, Progesterone and Clomid with a lovely vodka glass of sparkling spring water!!

was determined to be festive and cheerful this weekend. but just found out that someone else is having yet another baby. why is it so easy for some people and so sodding hard for other people. having yet another wobble. sorry. just venting. i just want one so much it physically hurts every time i think about it. which is most of the time.

At least Wagner is finally out of the X Factor so I won't have to put up with his caterwauling this weekend! Xmas Smile

dachshinginthesnowona1horseopensleigh there you go dachs hows that?!?! i quite ike the antlers Xmas Grin

DachshundAntlersRule · 02/12/2010 19:29

velvet i'm sure the xmas thing isn't helping

that's one of the reasons DH and are are going away for xmas rather than doing the whole family thing. i just CAN'T be at home, where I was expecting to be majorly upduffed and really looking forward to meeting bub, over xmas without falling apart.

maybe i'll feel a bit better after my apt at the clinic (it's on monday mamac) but i can't feel festive right now. bring on the mulled wine and mince pies - maybe it'll help.

sorry for being so despondent guys.

orestyemerrywombat · 02/12/2010 19:15

I think 12dachsundsofchristmas sounds brill!! Huge hugs Dachs. I can only begin to imagine how hard it is for you right now.

Do you think we could do our meet up in a Greek restaurant so we could do some therapeutic plate smashing? Xmas HmmXmas Grin

Velvetstocking · 02/12/2010 19:15

I'm right in the middle of being good time but I've just finished my second bottle of wine this week! Do you think it's coz it's Xmas and we all should be so happy that we are feeling so extremely miserable?

MamaChristmas · 02/12/2010 19:12

Dachs big hugs lovely. When is your apt at the clinic?

I think we've all got the blues at the moment! I don't mind admitting that whilst I am bloody chuffed for Nix and owl... I do feel a little Envy but I hope our day will come and we'll all join that club soon too and that's what keeps me going!

PS Who mentioned mince pies, mulled wine and a gathering, gawd that sounds good!

DachshundAntlersRule · 02/12/2010 19:04

mulled wine and mince pies sounds fab!

wombat great vent!

i have also noticed the EVERYTHING ON TV HAS BABIES IN thing a lot recently. DH and I have been rewatching all the old series of ER - we started to put them on as our memory of them was that there weren't that many episodes which would start me off bawling again, but every single episode seemed to contain a baby of some kind.

I'm so miserable :( I can't think about anything except my failed pregnancy and failed IVF.

mamac IK will ponder festively this evening - I like the 12 dachshunds of christmas one best - what do you other girls think?

orestyemerrywombat · 02/12/2010 16:56

Ah, I had that at the weekend with a friend and her new born and lots of very very well meant 'advice' about "getting on with it".

wakarimasen · 02/12/2010 16:51

Yes and it's worse when they didn't even know you were pregnant. She doesn't know how much salt she's adding to the wound!

orestyemerrywombat · 02/12/2010 16:14

Xmas Grin MamaC, Wakarimasen and Velvet - glad my little outburst impressed Xmas BlushXmas Grin It was all getting a bit too much! Yes, I think it has helped (that and going to the gym at lunchtime!).

Velvet - it's not just on TV though is it? It's everywhere!!!!!!!!!!! I really thought the gods were having a laugh at my expense on Friday afternoon. I think my work (large organisation) must have been holding one of their sporadic parenting guest lectures or something at lunchtime because I pressed the button for the lift to the canteen and when the door opened there were ten, YES TEN pregnant women in there. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

I think mulled wine meet up is a fab idea Xmas Grin

Wakarimasen - I'm sorry about your friend's announcement upsetting you. ((Hugs)) It's tough isn't it? Logically I know there isn't a finite number of babies to go round and someone else's good news doesn't deprive me of my chance, but somehow that still does nothing to slay the green eyed monster!

Velvetstocking · 02/12/2010 14:41

Wombat I am impressed with the vent too! Has it helped?

I cried yesterday - we watched the first episode of the new series of Peep Show where Sophie gives birth. DH asked why I was crying and I said "I just want my baby". Since the MC EVERYTHING on tv seems to involve being pg in some way or another!

Dont you think it would be really nice if we could all get together in RL for mulled wine and mince pies? Just because we all understand. Would be lots of tears I imagine!

Anyway, I'm going a little crazy from being snowed in for the thrid day in a row and looking like its gonna be tomorrow too! I'm all for a week off work but not when you cant get out!!

wakarimasen · 02/12/2010 14:23

Hi Wombat

I feel your pain. My friend announced she was preg last week. Got pregnant first time they tried and have had a "great" 12 week scan. Have been sujected to photos of her clasping the "bump" on facebook!

I have been grinning through gritted teeth!

Just checking in again. Been away for a while but have been lurking on this thread!

HAve had some success with B6 to lengthen my LP by 1 day (now 11 days) so this month we have started TTC again Smile On CD12 just now and normally OV on CD13/14 so I'm quite busy Wink

Its handy that I'm off work all week due to the snow too - nice and relaxed!

MamaChristmas · 01/12/2010 21:22

ooooh I shall ponder on that one tonight me dear! Just back from Aqua... bloomin knackered! Hope you're all well.

DachshundAntlersRule · 01/12/2010 18:30

hey mamac you seem to be good at names! can you come up with something a bit more festive than dachshund antlers for me? it's a bit crap but the best i could come up with on the spur of the moment
