MUMS - my 2ds bday is the 28th june although his edd was 15th july, he tried to steal his big bro's birthdate which was the 27th (october) but i managed to hold him in for an extra 33 mins
CH nice to hear from you am thinking of you today i know everyone says it but its true it does get a little easier each time, you will never forget i dont six years after my first one, but each year (and admittidley sp? sounds a little corny) i light a candle just to remind me of all the precious ones i lost huge hugs to you xxxx

mumswish · 08/11/2005 15:11

oh carly, thats sooo gorgeous to light the candles, I used to do that for all the pets I had but since getting the fish its too much of a fire hazard now.

Couldnt you have kept him in for another 24hrs aswel?

carly82 · 08/11/2005 15:15

Oh god you are joking i had trouble keeping him in that long btw im not implying that i am a 'big' girl iykwim they were planning to induce me due to choleastasis @ 37 wks but bub had other ideas and 56mins after my waters breaking and extreme obscenities to the poor m/w and staff baby zac was born at 00:35am

mumswish · 08/11/2005 15:27

awww bless the midwife. I've said all along when I have kids I dont want the drugs if I can help it, but I know that (weakling here) if I dont I'll either break df's hand or make the mf leave from shouting at her!! maybe i should just use the drugs?!

carly82 · 08/11/2005 15:38

they started by giving me an empty gas and air cylinder and then had no time for pethidine as i was too far gone by then so he was born au natural

mumswish · 08/11/2005 15:43

hey, maybe that would work for me. I cant think what its called where they give you something you think does stuff and it doesnt but you think it has?!? IYKWIM (LOL)

mumswish · 08/11/2005 16:55

right well, i'm going home now. see you all tomorrow.

peepee · 08/11/2005 19:02

Is anyone there?

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:05

Peepee! I'm on the other side - whooooo!

OP posts:
peepee · 08/11/2005 19:12

I was at the hospital today for an appointment in the recurrent m/c clinic. I saw a different Prof. He was really nice. He checked over my file and pointed out that in the last year I have had 5 m/c which indicates to him that I am very fertile. This is not good! Apparently most women have an open window of about 36hrs when they ovulate. This generally releases good eggs as they have been waiting for their release. As I have been getting pregnant so frequently and easily it suggests to him that my ovualting window is open longer. This could mean that my eggs are being released for a longer period and therefore not as strong as the norm. If this is the case it could mean that I will never have a baby of my own.
He advised me to start taking extra vitiamin c and e which I have. I will also have to start taking 2 progesterone tabs a day from day 18 to day 28 of my cycle. If I test positive after that I will have to have 2 pregnancy hormone jabs a week for the duration of the pregnancy. This all seems really high risk to me and is stressing me out.
DH is away and I have no-one I can talk to at home. I don't want to say anything to my family as they will just worry.

peepee · 08/11/2005 19:12

Sorry CH, I know u don't want to talk pregnancy.

wannabump2006 · 08/11/2005 19:13

Just a quick message from me tonight.x
first of all,hope everyones ok,it is very quiet on here lately!?
well the news with me is that i went and tried to do another day of work today and ended up in tears by lunchtime and had to leave,took myself off to the doctor as haven't really been right(mentally0 for awhile...(not in a nutty,psycho way by the way,just really emotional and VERY up and down)...anyway she has put me on anti depressants and valliem....i guess i was crying out for some sort of help in a way!?and i am quite stubborn and thought i could get through this independently...but i really can't
Have been signed off from any work for atleast a month,and the anti D's have side affects so will have to take it easy for awhile,also have to leave ttc fro a couple of months,so no new years eve announcements coming from me this time round(way secretly hoping i would be preg by new year)
But i guess if the brains not fuctioning properly,how can i expect to be in the best possible health to carry a chld!?

So thats me!.....i'll still be posting though as i really think it does help to talk to you lot.x

peepee · 08/11/2005 19:16

Take it easy wannabump2006. You have taken the first step to recovery. WELL DONE.
Good luck.

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:19

Peepee, I don't mind talking about this. Its you after all, my mate!

Yes it does sound like extreme action, but I think it sounds quite positive. You have a possible reason for the MCs, and you have a plan of action for when (and I say when coz it will happen) you do fall PG again. The prof knows the best course of action for you. You must try to relax. I know it is easy for me to tell you that but you know how important it is to chill whilst TTCing. The whole process does sound very daunting and scary, but they wouldn't suggest this treatment for you if it was any risk to you or your baby.

And as far as having anyone to talk to, I am always here! Have you ever known me to not be on MN??? Hun, talk away - thinkof me as one huge giant ear with legs and arms!

OP posts:
Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:23

Shelly - you can join me in the mentalist tablet club!! Have started back on mine now. What Anti-deps have you got? There is nothing wrong with feeling down. And you are already half way to getting better as you have realised something is wrong. Shelly, hun I'm sending you lots of love and hope. Hand in there xxxx

Do you know what girlies, I might come back here....

As long as you don't mind. I feel like I'm home on here and I can't stay away from friends in need

OP posts:
peepee · 08/11/2005 19:25

Thanks.

I really feel as though this is never going to happen. He says he has a few more tricks up his sleeves just incase this doesn't work. But, it is just such a mystery to them. Should I m/c again they want me to go in for a d&c so's they can examine what they get. Going under anethestic scares the life out of me. I had it b4 last september and the thought of doing it again scares me.

I really need to find someone who is going thru the same or has been there just for some reasurrance. Any suggestions?

peepee · 08/11/2005 19:26

Yippppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.x

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:27

Yippee - is tat for me coming home?

OP posts:
peepee · 08/11/2005 19:28

Yes........... I suppose so!

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:33

Peepee, stay positive sweetie. God, I know I sound so annoying saying all this "be positive" and "try to relax" but it is true. You won't get anywhere if you are up tight and worrying. You must try to focus on happy things and tell yourself you are strong and will get through this. We are all here to help you out, we will try our best to help you through the bad times (and I will try my best to make you think I am completely off my trolley!).

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who has had a MC apart form the people I have met on MN, let alone anyone who has had more than one But I can offer you a shoulder to cry on, an ear to talk to and scream at.

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:33

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:39

Night hun. Hope you get a good nights sleep xxx

OP posts:
peepee · 08/11/2005 19:41

CH, I have jsut started a new thread to se if anyone else is out there going thru the same as me. Let's hope there is. If not I will really panic.

Coathanger · 08/11/2005 19:43

Good idea peepee. but don't panic coz everyone is different. Someone may have had a similar experience but maybe not the same.

You will get through this, hun, I promise
