Its been a long time since I've popped in here and I'm sorry to see some familiar faces :(

Lissie, what happened with your posh consultant ?

If I were you I'd ahem acquire some antibiotics from somewhere.

What would the treatment be if what you thing is up is up ?

Oh ladies that's so rubbish for both of you. My DH is a bit confused about my passion for posting on here (only been on a couple of weeks) but I explained it has helped me keep things in perspective. I've not had an MC but surely any idiot knows you have to grieve for the baby you've lost? Why does everyone else assume they know about our bodies? When we'll conceive? When we're fertile? Grrrr .

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 22:31

oh, witch im sorry

wickedwitchofwaterloo · 26/01/2011 22:08

Been a while since I have darkened these doors, hola ladies!

Firstly, I'm so sorry to hear what you are all going through, galway your story made me so Sad

I've taken a bit of a u-turn with things I have to say. Dispite a very supportive partner and my Dr telling me he woude ok with us trying naturally for a while before we used our (funded) F.E.R.C, I've decided to go back on the pill and put the baby making on hold Confused

The last two months cycles have been hell in between everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) assuring me that the most fertile time is after a MC so I should expect to be pregnant again straight away and the crazy symptom spotting (metallic taste, discharge, cravings, pregnancy boobs etc) I feel like I have lost my mind.
I was convinced I was pregnant this month, utterly convinced. I saw some pink when I wiped, 'ha! implanatation bleeding!' said I. It wasn't, it was my bloody period. I just don't feel I am mentally strong enough to TTC while the miscarriage is still heavy on my mind...

Sorry for the length of that, oops x

I know, I know, chicken.

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 22:03

i know, its just really difficult to see that right now, every time I think Im getting over it and ive come to terms with being infertile, it hits me that this isnt a choice. I didnt want an only child. I love him so much and I wnat to give him the world.

duchesse · 26/01/2011 21:59

Of COURSE you haven't let him down liss. He has a family and it is what it is- a lovely and loving family. He has the best possible family.

Besides, it doesn't matter how many of you there are, there'll still be a rap sheet when he's 14, he's still hate you both and you'll still be dead embarrassing. I know a fair number of only children, both young and older, and they all seem very balanced and happy to me.

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 21:50

thank you. I really dont know where we can go from here if not. we haved been refused IVF and he seems to think that heparin will do the trick. it wont. I bruise too easily, and my blood pressure is v low. its not my blood. its an immunology problem. all the signs are there. but what do I know eh?

im sick of people announcing their pregnancies as a shock. and those urban myths.. a friend, of a friend who was infertile til her 50's then had 2 lots of triplets in 2 years. I was walking round the castle today with my group of 5 boys and I thought to myself, this is what I wanted. I wanted a large family. I wanted to oversee squabbles and play knights and teach them. and Im beginning to realise that I wont. ds will continue to play with his imaginary friends and ask for a sibling every year. He will be a happy, well rounded little boy and will continue to tell me he loves me every day. but I feel like Ive let him down.

duchesse · 26/01/2011 21:38

(((liss))) I hope your consultant gets his shit together for your next appointment. Or has his much cleverer registrar stand it for him.

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 21:28

sorry about the typos.

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 21:27

lol, it enrages me to. its the "why bother waiting?" shit that gets me, I'll tell you why I bother waiting - because Im fucking sick of you twunts taking my money, i go home, POAS and its a BFP. Yay! I start to hold my breath.

a few days go past. I think... maybe, just maybe this will work. perhaps my body is sorted now. maybe its my turn.

then one day I feel ill and start vomitting. I use cold flannels on my forehead to try to get my temp down. I take paracetomol as well as everything else. then my womb wrenches. and before I know it Im sobbing in the toilet.

so I dont test 7 days before my missed period because now Im too scared of getting a BFP.

Bexamundo · 26/01/2011 21:21

btw while I'm here anyway does anyone get annoyed at the clearblue digital test advert?
I shout at the smirkey clearblue woman banging on about the virtues of her fecking test! "Way before your scan".
Esp this month when we've been too ill to even try.
Stoopid smirkey woman, I need it to be a BFP before it'd come up as any number of weeks! GRRRRRRR. DH pointed out there's more ads at this time of year because women get pregnant round Christmas/New year. I'd NEVER realised that til I was TTC...

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 18:03

Bisous · 26/01/2011 17:54

lissielou LOL, hilarious!!

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 17:08

it was warwick castle. the boys (all 5-6) gave it a wide birth when theyt were told what it did. I practically sat down to eat lunch at it. Grin

Bexamundo · 26/01/2011 17:02

I'm currently reading "Taking charge of your fertility" and am waiting for a call back for relexology. Hmm fertility table, I'm intrigued...

Bisous · 26/01/2011 16:52

OracleInaCoracle · 26/01/2011 16:49

Im here, just been on ds's school trip with him. had 5 boys in my group, and it was ace. they were really good and we had a great time. there was a fertility table in the great hall, had a good old rub of it and then felt embarrassed

Bisous · 26/01/2011 16:45
