Rainbow babies- for all of us holding, pregnant with and trying for our rainbows. While remembering all our darling angels

[Moominsarescary]

Hoping the thread brings us luck and that soon we will all be holding our rainbows xx

Omg omg omg just done a test because AF is late (put down to moving house stress and trying not to get excited /read too much into it) but there is definitely a +!!! Got DH to check it too and it's def there - trying not to get excited and will do another test tomorrow to be sure but YAY!!
We are going away to a spa with a lovely couple who have been such great friends since we lost Nancy so got to take it steady but I can barely contain myself!!!
Got loads of moving to do today but bil & pil are coming to help so it shouldn't be too bad, and if we get everything done then I'll really be able to chill.

Elly eeeek exciting! Now don't you go lifting any heavy things

elly congratulations! How exciting. Hoping for a sticky bean and a boring pg.

Elly if you hear a squeally noise coming from the north, it's me! How exciting! Have a wonderful spa weekend :)

Thank you!! DH said don't get too excited yet cos it's so early and to do another test in the morning - I'm trying so hard to not get too excited yet, but yes - please keep fingers crossed for a very sticky bean and a boring next 8 months (and another BFP tomorrow!).

Hugs to all xxxx

Oh Elly squeeeee that's fab news!! Here's to a boring 8 months or so xxx

Elly !!!!!!! FX for tomorrow's test xxx

fan we were thinking River or Raven for a girl but not sure about a middle name DH is insistant they have a middle name because he doesn't have one and feels he missed out

Have just had the OT round to look at putting in a through floor lift so I can independantly look after the baby/toddler and 'hmm you may have to move' was mentioned - I moved here because it was supposed to be adaptable and the old house wasn't, that's why the old place was reposessed! I've just finished getting this place livable ARGH! I'm ok though, this is why I'm so well practiced at 'nevermind it'll all work out in the end tra lala'

elly fantastic news!!! I am so happy for you both, hoping, praying and wishing for a boring 8 months. . x

trickle Dh wanted River if Z was a boy! I hope the lift can be sorted. x

trickle great names, I love the name Raven. Know a little girl in the states called this, she was great.

trickle should have said aswell. Love nature names. Hazel, maple, etc.

Mech thanks... Hope the next week flys by so u can get back to the important business of ttc!!!
Good luck Trickle cx
Fan that's a lovely offer ... Don t worry about the distance Phebs' ll be with u in the morning!!! good idea about the hotel will look in to it... Had a really good night out with some mates last night & we discussed all this .seems I m not the only one who, at times, feels like this!!! Problem with men is ; they don t think like women!!! , indeed , if they think at all!!!!!
Excellant news Elly so happy for you... Long may the new rainbows keep increasing for all of us...xxx
Hope u re all well!? I m feeling crap like I ve got a virus again. Started last night after I' d been out felt freezing, headache , aching etc... Thought I'd sweat it out ( pleasant) over night ... But no feel just as crap..., just hoping I feel better for work on Monday... So, my plan to be a vixen in the bedroom was completely out of the window!!!!
Love to all xxx
Smiling about Elly's news xxxx

Thanks blitzy and fan and angel

Boring days right now YAY!

Greetings from beautiful, secluded Cornwall (with wi-fi!) and very very excited congratulations to elly! Wonderful, wonderful news. So pleased for you&your DH . Am joining in with the chorus of 'here's to a very uneventful eight months'...

mecha/fan re my DH's uncle - I KNOW - isn't it awful someone could say that about their son. Implying they'd basically chosen the wrong baby when they adopted him, as he hadn't turned out as they wanted Frankly after reading that, it didn't matter that he didn't send condolences or mention our little girl - we just thought, ugh, what a horrid person you are... and it was almost funny, yes, in its total self-absorption. You do see what people are REALLY like in these circumstances, don't you?

Thinking of trickle and excited for you!

We are relaxing here in a lovely cottage and even had a mostly good day yesterday. So sad to be here without our daughter, though.
Love to all xxx

elly congratulations and I hope that your test today was even stronger.

Lots to catch up on so apologies but I just wanted to send my very best wishes to you elly.

angel waited for the arrival of Phebs this morning lol.

trickle thinking of you.

The kittens have fleas so de-fleaing the house today oh what joy!

Oh no fan! We haven't had them yet, fingers crossed. Alfie had his balls off on Friday, he has been fine and mad as ever!
Ov day is coming for me, had my first high on the cbfm this month. I reckon O day is thursday.

Kleine- your break sounds idyllic, I hope you can relax and enjoy yourself. Remember little E is always with you. X

Sorry, I have forgotten who to reply to i am blaming cocktail hangover my phone.

Hope you are all good, love to all of our angels. C

Been there fan with the fleas... Donnt seem to get them as much now with only Cleo as she doesn t go out half as much as Scottie did.... Xxx
Blizy bless little Alfie ... Remember our Scottie having the same done xxx
Mech you certainly see the best & worst of people at a time like this. As well documented I ve never spoke to my MIL since loosing Georgie due to her terrible acts of selfishness... Amongst other stuff: she bought Georgie some roses for her cremation then took them home after the service, was the only person to not contribute to Georgie's just giving site, talked all the way in the car to the service about crap whilst upsetting my Sis & BIL ( she was in their car), loitered at the end of the service whilst the minster was spending a few last minutes saying goodbye to Georgie with me & Ant... They re to name a few oh yes & allergdley tried to commit suicide 6 weeks after Georgie died because she was " suffering" totally unbelievable .... At lease you he's shown himself up for the selfish git he is... Sufficient to say she has nothing to do with Phebs , as only seen her once which suits me fine... Take care xxxx
Love to all xxxxx
Still dying here will be ringing in sick tomorrow ... & sleeping xxxx

Congratulatios elly
Hope you sort the fles out fan
Hope you feel a bit better tomorrow angel
Hello to everyone else.

Take care everyone

Evening ladies

Haven't posted for a while because Ive been really down......and I know feeling sorry for myself is getting me nowhere....anyway feeling like Ive turned a bit of a corner in the last couple of days and wanted to say hello : )

ELLY: Congratulations...well done you! Fan was so right with the old saying 'New house new baby'.

ANGEL: Hope things are looking up on the home front...Your MIL sounds awful no wonder you don't speak!!! Hope you feel better tommorrow x

Kliene : Hope you are having a nice break Cornwall x

Mech: Good luck with the OP x

Trickle: Almost there I bet you cant wait until you get your little rainbow......wishing the days away for you x

Fan: Thinking of you and hoping you get a BFP soon x

Sorry if I missed anyone. Its late and I'm Knackered.

Nite Nite x

Babyh glad u re feeling a bit better: slowly, slowly... Xxx
Razz good luck xxx you re soon be back in to it ... Like u ve never been away!!!
As for me off to ring in now then back to bed still feel shocking ... xxxx

Hope you feel better soon angel, it's horrid feeling so rubbish - to you.

Hope you sort the fleas out fan, have you been bitten much?

Day at a time babyh, that's all you can do and try not to put too much pressure on yourself - you need to allow yourself time, it's so hard and some days are better than others.

kleine - hope you are managing to have a nice break away with DH, E will always be with you both, wherever you are.

mech thinking of you for your overnight stay tonight & op tomorrow - hope it all goes ok and that you get home and recover quickly so you can join the TTC rollercoaster.

trickle thinking of you too - so nearly there now, take care and we'll hear from you when you have your rainbow safe in your arms xx

I have just called the community midwife centre, and managed to speak to my lovely MW from last time - she was so lovely visiting me after I'd lost Nancy, I'm really pleased I got to speak to her because this is her last week before she goes off to do HV training. Got to book an appt with my GP first though so that I can get an early viability scan, which will hopefully be the week after next - think I'm about 5 weeks, so will be 7 then which is the earliest they will do one anyway. Eek - so scared. Told my sis & bil last night - we are really close to them, and they are so pleased for us, and will be there for lots of handholding along the way. Got another BFP yesterday and then a really strong one really quickly this morning (got a feeling I'll be testing a lot over the next few weeks!!).

Hope everyone had a nice weekend - we managed to move into the new house this weekend, so we had our first night there last night, mattress on the floor job, but exciting to have a new start ahead of us.

Sorry for the massive essay, and sorry I haven't name checked everyone (blizy, I hope your hangover wasn't too bad yesterday!!!) xx

Really thinking about Trickle today and hoping all goes well!

No time to name check, though I am thinking about us all and all our news, good and less good.

Off to hospital! Bit nervious but relieved to get it over with!

Love to all xx

Congratulations ellie

babyh sorry you have been feeling so down xx

angel hope you are better soon

Sorry for all those I've missed.

So I got myself into a bit of a panic and decided to book myself in for a gender scan sat, more so that I could see the baby. It's a boy!!! Everything looks fine.

Saw the consultant this morning who let me choose if I wanted to try progesterone as well as the stitch. He doesnt think it will make any difference to the outcome re the incompetant cervix but it may help with the pprom. I start it at 18 weeks. 16+ 5 now

moomins Congratulations on team blue! And Im glad your consultant is looking after you. 16 weeks! wow.

oh I need to shout this out somewhere and its not aloud in Real life!

My brother, Sister in law and adorable Nephew are moving back to blighty in a couple of years from Australia. Yay!!
