ah, id best not get too comfy then!

lissiethevampireslayer · 10/10/2007 21:44

oh, nearly forgot, we had to cancel our follow up with the consultant (all ill & dh hadnt done his "special" tests, honestly, i get gallons of blood taken, dye shoved up my fanjo and swished round me tubes and the coldest fattest hands in the uk prodding me, and he cant have a w*nk ) well spoke to the cons's secretary and we have an appt for a fortnights time. explained about the last mc and she said its understandable.

Hello everyone, thought I would just check in.

In my quest for getting healthy prior to ttc I spent all afternoon making a 'healthy' soup. Unfortunately it resembles liquidised horse dung so I don't think I can bring myself to eat it. Oh well back to the drawing board!

Take care x

Hi All - sorry completely out of the loop again.... but just wanted to say to Lissie - I know how you feel re: failing DS and wanting it for him. Thats exactly how I feel for dd. She's now 2.8 and the gap is just getting bigger and bigger. I know there are others who have larger gaps too (ladylush springs to mind) so you're not alone.... Not sure if that helps ?

My update - AF arrived on Monday - hurrah ( really). DH also not done his 'test' Lissie - we have a house full of builders and realistically I know he's not going to do it until they are finished which is probably another couple of months.

Torres - Nice to see you and pleased to hear all is going well.

Congrats on all the BFPs - I think there were 3, well done y'all .... on the other thread which I tried to catch up on...

No one here is a failure.

I will not allow that kind of talk in this establishment.

We have all been unlucky. Some more than others I accept. It is not our faliure, it is a purely physical responce which is completely out of our control!

Lissie. You will get pregnant again.
I have dd 8years and a dd 3years old. The gap is great. No constant nappy changing. And we get to lay in bed while dd1 gets breakfast for dd2. I mean what more could you ask for!!!

Well, ladies, redefining "hurrah" again TMI ALERT: just went to the loo (Kate says with an English accent, thinking it is making her sound very cool) and had lots of CM with a lot of light brown-ish to it... and starting my usual AF cramping... well, it's been 4 weeks almost to the day (tomorrow to be exact) since my D&C so if it all progresses as it seems:

  • ILTS will be pg testing alone this month
  • new mattress might be saved as I will put lots of precautionary towels under me
  • today might be marked as CD1? Might be too light for CD 1 - so maybe tomorrow

Ok, now, bring it on - I need you to say "congratulations, Kate" (cuz I am not disappointed, no I am not... and these feelings I'm having... like this cramping... it is not reminding me of anything... not at all...

I could SO go for some soup now... like RIGHT now... but I am a horrible cook (did it just look like I was quickly trying to change the subject?

I feel like a failure too. No DCs, no AF, no ovulation, and 5 weeks since my medical management, and I'm going in for my 3rd ERPC on Friday. When will it end?

Hugs to Jules and Floss hope eveything goes OK Friday Floss

Hope it is AF turning up Kate CD1, will you be temping etc?

I want AF to turn up this weekend as we are away for a quiet weekend in a cottage in Suffolk in two weeks time and we'll have lots of relaxed BD'ing time. But no AF symptoms, no sore boobs which is how I know.

torres · 11/10/2007 09:54

just wanted to wish flossie good luck for friday. You are not a failure in anyway, if anything it is the hospital that has failed you. It is horrendous that you are having to go for a 3rd op. If you have the strength, ask if they can do a 'guided erpc' under ultrasound. I was told before my 1st erpc that the hospital didn't have the facilities but when I had to go back for the second, it was suddenly on offer (it seemed some doctors were trained to do it with ultrasound and others weren't). Knowing they were going to use ultrasound gave me a small glimmer of hope it might work and made me feel less scared. Make sure you take lots of time off after, 3 general aneasthetics are alot to take xxx

cricri · 11/10/2007 10:07

FlossieF - it's simply appalling that you have to undergo a third ERPC. As Jules says, it might be worth making an official complaint (if you have the strength). It's bad enough having a mc without having to go through all that. Hugs to you and will be thinking of you tomorrow. You are NOT a failure - nobody here is - you've just been incredibly unlucky.
On a more positive note, I forgot to mention the other day that I went to see my homeopath again and she's given me lots of remedies to help with ttc and to make the baby stick this time!
ILTS have you done your weekly test today?

goingfor3 · 11/10/2007 10:31

FlossieF - Good luck with the ERCP, hopefully it will be the last ever!

katendmom - Yay af has arrived, it's good when you know your body is still working.

Iliketisleep are you due to test today?

DUSTIN · 11/10/2007 10:51

gillydaffodil the soup I made was called 'any veggies left from weekly organic box'! I have left it for my DH to have for lunch- lucky man!!!

Hope everyone else is ok.

lissiethevampireslayer · 11/10/2007 11:44

how is everyone today? well, 10dpo and yep, im symptom spotting. feel sick: did spend all morning getting on and off buses.
starving: didnt have brekkie
fancy bacon & egg butty: see above
saw old friend with her 1yo (my 2nd mc was when she was pg with her): fate? or coincidence.

STEP AWAY FROM THE TEST'S!!

how is everyone? flossie, i'm so sorry you have to go thru this again, jules: how are you today sweetheart?

spookykitty · 11/10/2007 12:07

hello everyone so much to catch up with nhere so apologies if I miss none out.

Nothing much happening chez kitty, CD8 AF gone time to get back to some serious BDing, am staying way from opks this month as they stress me out and I SO SO SO SO telling myself not tests til Halloween!

lissie - good to "see" you, you are one of the people on here that I would mega love to get a BFP and it stick, I would love everyone to but you know what I mean some have a lot more heartache than others.

kate - good news about AF starting, at least now you are no waiting in limbo which is awful and you havea CD again.

Flossie - I don't know what to say you poor thing they have messed you about so much. Hope the last ever ERPC goes as well as it can for you x

Jules -good to see you too, hang on in there sending you some positive thoughts x

hello to everyone else x

lissiethevampireslayer · 11/10/2007 12:15

ah kitty, thank you felt a bit odd coming back tbh. im one of the "old timers" on the ttc after mc thread and was worried that i'd jinx you all

ronshar · 11/10/2007 14:10

Oh the joy of life is slowly draining away from me. Literaly and physically.
I woke this morning with most of the heavyness in my breasts gone. I had a funny low down ache in my pelvis. I have now been bleeding for 6hours. It is bright red with bits in. No real pain.
I have had my question answered about when they will scan at my local EPU. Not before 6 weeks. As the lovely nurse said very plainly on the phone, there is nothing we can do for you!!!!
I am now in the waiting game to see if it is a MC or just more shit to deal with.
Fuck.

I am trying to keep a little bit of hope but it is hard right now.
Why is it just so very hard. I am a nice person, a pretty good mum to my 2dds. Im not over weight, I dont smoke, I hardly ever drink. What have I done to deserve this crap.

ronshar · 11/10/2007 14:26
