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!!

Pregnant woman just sat next to me on train :(

wombat and hiding hope you're doing better soon, easier said than done I know

Hi Velvetcu! And some hugs for Wombat, I am impressed by your gym visiting and hope you begin to feel better soon. I'm really busy at work at the moment which is a bit of a mixed blessing really. At least it keeps me out of trouble.

I find that one minute I am fine and then for no obvious reason I'll suddenly be on the edge of tears. I'm not sure it has really sunk in yet and I haven't been able to have a proper cry. I have a terrible premonition that it will suddenly hit me at the most inapropriate moment and I'll scream and burst into tears in the middle of a meeting or something.Blush

I'm okay Velvet, thanks. Have been terrible - lots of sobbing sessions at unpredicatble moments and feeling like my world has ended, but am now trying really hard to drag myself out of it. Have been to the gym twice in two days [smug but fragile emoticon] Grin

owlshoes · 02/11/2010 16:40

Not bad, ta, velvet - did you manage to sort out your dress? :)

How is everyone in here?

HidingInTheBackRow · 31/10/2010 14:00

Thanks for your kind words Pink. Mumsnet has definitely been a life saver in general through the whole process. It helps to know you're not alone.

PinkFondantFancy · 31/10/2010 09:09

Hi hiding really sorry for your loss :( I hope you're doing ok and the bleeding is easing off now. I found it really helpful being here and on this thread, the ladies are very supportive and can make you feel a lot less isolated while you're going through this. x

HidingInTheBackRow · 30/10/2010 20:34

Hello everyone. Golly! Do I need a mojito right now!? (Yes I do! incase you wondered).

I had my mc confirmed at 8 weeks yesterday, though really I had known for a good week or so it was on the cards. Even DP had commented that I didn't 'seem pregnant anymore'.

Really gutted of course and just want the bleeding to finish now so we can start again. It all still feels a bit unreal. One minute your pregnant and worrying about the increasing size of your breasts the next it is all over and you are back where you started.

Heavens, I need that drink! Someone pass me a bottle of wine and some soft cheese.

PinkFondantFancy · 29/10/2010 23:07

Mmmmmmmmmojito :-) Plus they must be healthy thanks to their mint content......?? Grin at the pasta surprise!

owlgiblets · 28/10/2010 13:58

Hoorah!

lemonsherbet · 28/10/2010 13:35

I ended up making it with potato when I discovered there was no pasta either :-)

Would love a mojito if any are on offer.

owlgiblets · 28/10/2010 12:52

PFF whinging is good for the soul, as are cocktails. Here; I have made a bucket of mojito, stick your nose in that :)

lemon it's kind of ironic that the only thing that isn't a surprise in pasta surprise is the pasta.

Unless you made it with couscous instead.

skeletalnix · 28/10/2010 12:49

not brave enough to stick around in my cozzy!

Velvetcu · 28/10/2010 10:59

Chill out day by the pool today methinks with lots of hunky waiters serving cocktails :)

PinkFondantFancy · 27/10/2010 21:55

Hellllllooooooooooo all! Can I join you lovely ladies by the pool? I've been a bit of a whingy whinger of late so could do with a nice cocktail by the pool! velvet I agree with Owly - don't bother with the diet, get a shiny new size 10. Gutted for you with the dates :( That sucks.

lemon with you on the jealousy, it's very hard to suppress, even when I know that some of my friends didn't exactly have a smooth journey to get pg.

lemonsherbet · 26/10/2010 18:46

Dachs I hope you dog is getting better.

Anyone got an exciting ideas for dinner? At the moment I think we will be having pasta left over suprise.

nickstermum · 25/10/2010 14:55

xxxx

owlshoes · 25/10/2010 12:01

Aw, velvet the due dates are utter shite :(

Mine was 22 Jan. Now that the SIL is up the duff I can look forward to a family Christmas centred entirely around her expanding girth and in all honesty, I cannot face it because it upsets me too much. So I shall join you in the ranting!

I wouldn't worry about the 4lb though, I reckon you should treat yourself to a new (size 10) dress and to hell with the diet.

Dachs Am sending lots of positive vibes to your little doggie, hope he's doing okay. Have you started on the magic drugs yet or are they still lurking in the fridge?

Velvetcu · 24/10/2010 22:40

Hi everyone, sorry to see we have newbies but welcome anyway.

I haven't been on much coz my head is in a bit of a strange place and I don't really know how to say what's going on! It's my 30th on 22nd nov which is 3 weeks before due date of 15th dec so all I keep thinking is that I should be looking like I'm ready to pop at my party but instead I'm trying to lose 4lbs so I definately fit into my size 8 dress :(
It's also our 10th wedding anniversary on 18th nov so we have been getting more than the usual number of "isn't it time you had kids yet" comments. Like you just decide and then you are instantly upduffed.
I'm also thinking maybe I shouldn't ttc this month so that I'm not stressing about it at the party and my WTF cycles are really pissing me off!
I just want my baby!!!!!

Sorry for the mememe I just needed a rant! Hope you are all good.

Lizhappyfeet · 23/10/2010 17:43

Hi Lemon, sorry you need to be here. Poor thing with other pregnancies around, my friend is due soon and I don't know yet how I'll manage to go see her

DachshundsRule you're right, erpc was a week ago and thought I was doing better, then seeing a baby this morning set me off. I hope your crisis is doing a bit better.

I'm taking up the wine and choc offer, thanks :)

DachshundsRule · 22/10/2010 21:50

lemon, lizhf owl's right, it seems to go away but then grabs you when you least expect it. everyone here is great though. make sure you have someone you can cry at around when it reaches those milestones (I would have been 20 weeks last week and could barely get through the evening - DH had loads of tears to deal with)

owl sorry you're feeling down and grrsome too

DachshundsRule · 22/10/2010 21:46

soory to see tyhere are newbies. welcome all

see full story on other thread but having dog crisis so am sorry am not being more chatty today

owlshoes · 22/10/2010 21:42

Hello lemon , your name looks familar...I wonder if I've seen you in one of the other threads. V.sorry you've had to come and join us on this one. Wine sounds like a fine plan for the evening!

Mamap is right, it will get better with time but it does have the nasty habit of coming back unexpectedly to bite you on the arse when you least expect it.

It does feel like everyone else in the world is up the duff though, doesn't it? Grrr.

MamaPower · 22/10/2010 20:52

Hi lemon sorry you are here, pull up a sun bed and relax here with the rest of the gang [hsmile] it's very quiet and chilled here but the other thread (see link I posted earlier in thread on wed 20th) moves at lightening speed and also full of very supportive gals! I totally understand the jealousy feelings but it gets much easier as time goes by...but the longing will always cause pain until we all have a bean of our own... we'll get there [hsmile]. Off on hol's so see you in 3 weeks x
