Had an mc and need some wine, chocolate and somewhere to moan and cry? This is the place to be! We chat a LOT so it can be hard to keep up, but everyone on here is great and will hold your hand until you get your BFP.

PS wombat I've got a high risk of having twins, but would really like just the one more, so am happy to send some of my twin vibes to you if you want Xmas Grin

orestyemerrywombat · 07/12/2010 15:55

To be honest, and not wanting to lower the tone too much Xmas Blush, I'm not sure I know exactly what "rejuvenation" would entail. But perhaps that's because I don't yet have any DCs iyswim Xmas Grin

orestyemerrywombat · 07/12/2010 15:56

x-posts Izz - twin vibes - yes please!!! But then I'm just being greedy Xmas Grin

Mamafoof · 07/12/2010 16:00

Sorry to hear your stories wombat and izzy but thanks for sharing and here's hoping we have good stories to share soon....I guess it's only a matter of time, it's just the waiting that is so frustrating.

Izzy - I know what you mean about feeling like you've "wasted" a month. That's kind of how I feel. Will chat to dh about it. Think today is the last day to dtd if I do want to though and may not mind so much if I am not pg this cycle as could consider it a "bonus" cycle anyway?! Hmm

hairyfairylights · 07/12/2010 16:43

Welcome Mamafoof - Love the name! :)

So sorry you find yourself here, but am sure you will get lots of useful info and advice and support.

I am not waiting for AF. Ater my ERPC on 22nd, I think I am now ovulating, so sod it, all caution to the wind and legs akimbo! Grin

hairyfairylights · 07/12/2010 16:45

Hello mamaffof and welcome! It gets a tad chaotic in here, but it's all lovely.

hairy glad to hear it! Get thee to bed, or whereverXmas Wink

mummy how will you go about finding a gynae? How did you find the last quack one over there?

youremindmeofthebaubles · 07/12/2010 17:03

sorry, mamafoofXmas Blush

youremindmeofthebaubles · 07/12/2010 17:05

day 25 and only 5 DPO, according to the other oracleXmas Wink. God, a 2ww takes forever.

Mamafoof · 07/12/2010 17:08

thanks for the welcomeLadybeenkissingsantaclaus - you were spot on re stats (although I am guessng WTTC means "ttc now?"....and will keep you updated on that front!)

thanks also to hairy and baubles! for the welcome - think I'm going to like it here Xmas Grin

Mamafoof · 07/12/2010 17:09

wow - major typo alert above! Blush Blush Blush apologies!!

MamaChristmas · 07/12/2010 17:20

Very important announcement, Take That are putting on 4 extra dates on their tour, tickets on sale on Friday morning and if I don't get one of them I shall cry!

hey teacake, good to see you back Xmas Smile

Izzy how's DD? I bet she's been enjoying some tlc from you Xmas Smile

One big fat welcome from one 'Mama' to another Xmas Grin, sorry you are here and I hope your stay is short, in the meantime, you're in a really supportive place. Incidentally, my mn name choice (usually Mamapower) was some what premature as I mc my first baby and had a second chemical pregnancy... yet to have my first!

Hey hairy... I wish you weren't back on the list lovely but as you are, good luck and and welcome back to the mad house!

nix How ya doing chiccadee?

Waves too Wombat, Kat, Rudolph, YRMOTB, Choccy, Dachs and all you lovely ladies x

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 07/12/2010 17:29

DD is now In A State. Having been just full of cold and a little hot but not too bad all day, I (stupidly) chanced an excursion to take DS to the dentist where DD vomited without warning all over the floor Blush. And herself. And me. And in my handbag !!!!

Anyway - exciting news re TT tickets!!! Will definitely be having another go - do you know where they're going to be? That just about makes up for having to buy a new handbag Xmas Grin

  • thanks for redoing the list, feel much better now I'm nearly a week further up!
JulesAbs · 07/12/2010 17:33

I haven't been around here that long but a bit overwhelmed at the amount of people pushing through and onwards after having a miscarriage. I've had two this year and the last one really knocked me down, but I am back and ready to get TTC again, hoping that 2011 is going to be my lucky year.

MamaChristmas · 07/12/2010 17:50

Izzy Couldn't quite make out if you were more pissed off with embarrassment of waiting room throw up or that the sick hit your handbag!! lol! Poor DD!

To cheer you up:

Friday 27 May: Sunderland Stadium Of Light
Saturday 28 May: Sunderland Stadium Of Light
Sunday 12 June: City Of Manchester Stadium
Monday 4 July: Wembley Stadium

BTW Tickets on sale at 10am...I soooooo want one of those tickets!

Hi Jules welcome and fx 2011 is a better one for you and all here Xmas Smile

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 07/12/2010 18:02

mama the floor was definitely worse, the handbag can just go in the bin Xmas Blush

anyway she's in her jim jams now snuggled up on the sofa, so fx she'll feel better soon!

Welcome jules sorry you're here, and I hope your stay's a short one. Fx for 2011 x

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 07/12/2010 18:08

Hello Jules and Mamafoof I am very sorry for your losses, I hope you get all the support you need on here, these ladies have certainly kept me afloat over the last 5 months. I am also "watiting to TTC" after discovering that my mc was caused by Ashermans Syndrome, I have been operated on now, and am finishing up treatment with HRT, should be ready to go at it again in Jan.

mamafoof I found reading this helped clear things up about when to start TTC

I would also bear in mind that the "just for dates" reason could potentially hit you hard if you do become pregnant before AF and then get strange news from your first scan, lots of ladies on here have been through it and it does cause extra worry if you are told your baby looks "small for dates" - there is a loophole though, start temping and using OPK's!

Izzy oh poor you! and poor IzzyDS! I would have thought that shopping for a new handbag would be the bright side, no?

wombat I now want you to have twins too!

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 07/12/2010 18:21

mamafoof forgot to say, dont leave it too long, here is the latest theory from recent research

baubles I am a bit daunted TBH. All the other ones were found by the only available tried and trusted Costa Rican search method of asking your friends until you find one with a cousin that does it.Confused
All the Americans on the AS site go to R.E.'s (reproductive endocrinologists) as apparently gynecologists are too low down the food chain. I think my best bet is to scour the hospitals and look for someone with a) a specialist interest in this type of thing b) someone willing to learn from me

I have already asked on the AS site and it seems I am a lone pioneer AS patient in Costa Rica. Hopefully though if I can educate just one doctor then some other women will benefit from my experience. Lets see.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

dAncerandRudolfsMum · 07/12/2010 18:43

mummyinawarmplace you could start a business training local gynies!

wombat I always wanted twins but now I just think - my poor boobs!! They would be useless sacks of flesh if there were two babes at them!

welcome mamaF and jules sorry you find yourselves here but pull up an oversized cushion and enjoy the Christmas offerings -

I am trying to conceive DC3 Had a mmc at 9+4 weeks and then an ERPC. We started again straight away but I echo what others said that the physical side seems to sort itself out faster than the emotional and a wait isn't the worst thing

orestyemerrywombat · 07/12/2010 18:48

Thanks for the sunshine Mummy and the twins wishes. I'll see what I can do Xmas Wink Xmas Grin

Izz hope your dd feels better soon and enjoy the handbag shopping. I started my Christmas shopping tooday online in my lunch hour and at 5ppm got a call from my bank's fraud protection people querying the sudden increase in activity on my account Xmas Grin I love shopping Xmas Grin

Nix hope DS is feeling a bit brighter and less itchy too.

Joules welcome to you too.

Did you manage to get tickets Mamac???

MamaChristmas · 07/12/2010 18:56

Dear Fraudster (Yes you wombat you happy shopper you) hee hee!!
I didn't get tickets when the first batch were released on account of the fact that I was in Malaysia but Tickets for the extra few dates go on sale friday at 10am!!

hairyfairylights · 07/12/2010 19:15

Crikey, this thread moves fast!

LadybeenKissingSantaClaus thanks your guestimates are about right, UCL is right, what day I'm on I have no idea Confused but I am pretty sure I am ovulating or am about to!

Julesabs I've had two MC this year. Hard isn't it? Lets push on together, eh? I think it's the only thing do do.

Have you been offered any tests/support?

Good luck.

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 07/12/2010 19:55

Hello ladies, welcome to Mamafoof (great name) and JulesAbs Xmas Grin Sorry you are here, but you are in the right place!

wombo DS seems a lot brighter tonight, I left him for the night last night with his daddy when i was awol and he wasnt very well but DH took ARs advice and got some chamomile radox and cream which they have been doing dot to dot with and so he is a little less fractious!

mamachristo feeling ok thanks! still relatively symptom free except boobs, CM and shattered (from no sleep and hard work) but no nausea or anything.... cant remember when kicked in during last 2....but strong pos line again today.

Work is very busy only 2 more weeks til go live date and then i am hoping it will ease off a bit!

Awesome news betweener had us worried there for a min! Fab that you have a wriggling prawn Xmas Grin

Izz Xmas Grinre the useless sacks of flesh... thats mine now. mamfoof re the BF/Conception/MC I conceived last pg 4 months after stopping bf and who knows whether your hormones are right, my guess not! Then again Dsis conceived whilst and hers was fine, so two sides to every story!

kat2504 · 07/12/2010 20:29

inbetweener so happy to hear good news from you :)

Nothing to report here. RTD over. Boring part of cycle. Hoping CBFM doesn't give me 7 high days this time!

Can't wait for xmas hols, work is stressing me at the moment but at least we can do xmas dossing lessons next week. I'm just too tired and have a bunch of report grades to do this week too. Good job swi not also required!

Realised with horror that I have not even begun any xmas shopping whatsoever and there are less than 3 weeks to go. Oops. Will have to get it all off tinterweb if I can actually stay off here/fb/other distractions and get on with it!

Welcome to the newbies! Have a home made mince pie - slightly boozy, I like them with cointreau in!
