Spaniel sorry its a bit late but welcome to the thread, its so sad to hear about little Alex, and so normal for you to be feeling what you are right now. You are doing well just to be managing from day to day and to be looking after your other DS. Your little boy has a beautiful name, it is what we had chosen for our little girl too. We lost her on Christmas eve 2012 at 35 weeks. I think we all know what you mean about "not knowing" if something has gone wrong in a subsequent pregnancy, so many of us had no idea that things weren't just going smoothly until that fateful scan. There is no point lying, the anxiety of a rainbow pregnancy is huge. But the glimmer of hope it gives you is enough to get you from day to day. I hope you can start TTC as soon as your body tells you its ready, and that your PM results give you the go ahead. Hugs
Mademoiselle hope today is going as well as can be expected. Am thinking of you today
Tulip lovely to hear from you, and yes I certainly do remember you! Sorry that youve been told you have to use IVF. Its just an additional complication and after 8 years of it I can honestly say its tough. But looking at it from a positive view IVF does allow you to control so many things, you can even have PGD which allows you to avoid any cromosomical problems which from what I've been told can account for some stillbirths. Every tiny thing that you can control in relation to having a problem-free rainbow pregnancy is good. Hope you get your little brother/sister for A soon.
Ruby bet youre watching the minutes tick by! Will be thinking of you tomorrow, cant wait to hear what they say and when you'll be meeting Bear! Agree with what you say about our losses changing our perspective on things, like you say it makes you appreciate some things more, then at other times it just makes me angry that people whine on and on about stuff that is sooo unimportant its laughable.
Kayleigh Im crossing my fingers and hoping AF doesnt arrive today for you. Did you finally post the photos on FB? I think if anyone removes you as a friend because of that they dont deserve you as a friend!
Critter sending you a hug and hoping things are progressing with preps for transfer.
Blue thanks for the percentile info, 50% sounds like a good place for your little girl to be. I tried checking some of our measurements with Dr Google ang just got scary results so gave up. How's the anxiety? I did a couple of days when I actually wrote down every single time he moved, and was suprised at the amount. I think when I was just trying to remember the last time I felt anything my mind just was going blank, and thats when the anxiety was kicking in. Have you used the countthekicks app much? Yes I'm trying to eat a bit more but nearly everything seems to have carbs in it which puts me over the limit. First time since I was about 15 that I've worried about losing weight and not the other way round.
Lady thinking of you, hope you are coping ok.
Ducky hope your little man keeps up the disco dancing and you can relax a bit. Lovely that you DH could feel him too.
Earth hugs to you and your little chap
ATM how are you doing?
AFM just plodding along, waiting for Thursday. We're having a growth scan to see if the diabetes is affecting the baby.
Waves to all and anyone lurking x
