October 2007 ~All about us ~ MC'ing or MC'ed or TTC of BFP after MC or just loves cakes!

[katendmom]

As we agreed - starting a fresh thread before our original shuts down. Will post this new link into the old thread so everybody can find us!

In the meantime ~ sprinkling it with pink and blue baby pixie dust

and splashing with baby glue so lo's stick around forever ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ClairePO I had blood tinged mucous for at least four weeks after my mc, I assumed it came from my damaged cervix though it may be something that just happens after a mc.

I am having my scan in an hour to see if the bleeding I had at the weekend was from a problem, will let you know when I get back.

Thenking of you Jules.

Hi ladies, I don't usually post on this thread, but I do read it quite often. I had a missed m/c back in February and then a suspected ep/early miscarriage (bit of a mystery failed pregnancy) in August. I am ttc again, but I'm extremely negative about things so I don't post much at the moment.

I just wanted to answer Claire's question as it is so similar to what I went through. I had a missed m/c of twins. It was identified at 12 weeks, but they died at 7.5. I had medical management for the m/c which seemed quite straightforward and then a scan afterwards which showed nothing was left behind. My next two/three AFs were really weird. I didn't have my usual sore boobs and my AFs were light and pain-free. So I thought perhaps I didn't OV. I was trying to temp, but my temps were all over the place. I also had then endless spotting after AF which would be stop-start until about CD12/13. I thought I was going mad. I posted on MN, but no-one seemed to have been through anything similar. My doctor said not too worry it was just my hormones settling down. I was so frustrated as I just wanted to get on with ttc. But after 3 months my cycle went completely back to normal and I conceived (the suspected ep) on the 2nd normal cycle. I don't know what the problem was. I suspect it was hormones. It took nearly 5 weeks to get my hcg back to O which probably didn't help. Anyway, sorry about the long post. I just thought I'd let you know my experience.

I also just wanted to send my sympathies to Jules. I know how terrible I am currently feeling after two failed pregnancies, so I cannot begin to comprehend how awful you feel right now. Sorry to ask, but have you been given a diagnosis. I hope things improve for you (and for me) soon.

justjules - You are so brave. Hope that posting made you feel a little better and that you feel more optimistic today. Good Luck with your session today. I know it feels at the moment as if you will never recover but you sound as if you have been strong so far so I am sure you will. Feel free to vent here though- we are here to support each other.

loveangel Glad you are feeling a bit better. Thinking of venturing our for some shopping too. Maybe tomorrow.

oh jules, i wish i could say something. its not fair, not even a little bit. there are so many bad people in the world, so many babies being born unwanted and we have to go thru this. having a mc changes your perspective, you no longer want children, you crave them. you no longer have that blind faith that your body will do whats needed. its shit. im thinking of you today x

Hello girls.

In the dreaded 'am I, aren't I' time. CD29 of a cycle that has been between 28 and 30 days, did have cramps and pre-AF feelings until a couple of days ago, but now they've gone. Occasional sharp pain in lower areas. Sore boobs, funny feeling in mouth. But determined not to test until about three weeks late. Getting AF is somehow less depressing than a BFN.

However, I seem to remember writing something very similar to this a month ago, so it would seem that I never learn.

oh herby keeping everything crossed for you.
start a "not testing" thread it made not testing last month much easier for me

hi all quick update to anyone who isn't on the other threads, peed on an ebay cheapie this morning v v v v v faint line after 5 minutes, peed on one again at lunchtime this time used a control one with just water again v v v v v faint line. I cannot even begin to get my hopes up. AF due tomorrow, am so scared to use a CBD in case it's BFN but suppose it's better to know.

Herby - I know what you mean about AF being less depressing that BFN, think that why I'm holding back until AF is late then I know I have a good chance of a BFP.

G43 - thinking of you today x

Jules I am so sorry... so sorry... life isn't fair but you know... I am getting tired of even saying it. Just last night I was crying to my DH that I wish that once, just for once, thing would be easy. I am at a bit of different point now - meaning our DS was NOT an easy gift to get and when we got him I felt like - wow... But we now have some health challenges with him and my heart continues to bleed. So... actually... last night almost at the same moment my DH and I said the same thing - our DS is it for us. Can you believe it? After all those back and forth and emotional ups and downs... I just feel like I don't have it in me anymore to get my dreams crashed.

So, like Rosy... I'll have to give MN a bit of a rest... just feel like I need time to sort my R/L out now... a bit of a change of plans if you know what I mean but before I go I just wanted to say

Congratulations and my prayers to all the pg mamas

BEST WISHES to all who're TTC

Strength and wisdom to those who're going through loss

I'll catch up with you girls later~

god bless kate, will miss you but totally understand x

Spookitty, I hope yo see a big fat line in the morning!!!!!

Baby is inside me and was wriggling it's arms and legs like crazy!. No sign of where the bleeding came from so I think it may have been external from thrush, yes I have it again. They kept my scan appointment for next week so I will see it again this time with dp.

katendmom good luck to you and your family.

thats fab news, im so happy for you!

Good luck whatever path you take, kateandmom. And thanks for all your support over the last week or so xxx

G43 - great news!!!

katendmom - sorry to see you go but understnad you need "you" time, hope life turns the corner for you soon and pop in to let us know how you are doing x

katendmom totally understand your decision - thank you for all your support over the past few weeks. We'll really miss your wise words and hope to see you again sometime.
G43 really pleased for you, fantastic news.
SK as I said on the other thread, I'm on tenterhooks! Keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP for you.

jules - i am so, so sorry. i wish i could do something. all i can do right now is hope and pray that you will get the lo you want and deserve so much. its going to happen - please believe that.

katend - i will really really miss you. you are such a rock and your advice is kind, thoughtful and always uplifting. but i can understand that a break may be just what you need right now. best of luck and lots of love from us on 'all about us'.

i got good news today in that my hcg levels are going up as normal and also, it wasn't a bladder infection ? which is also quite mystifying - i am still having weird pains in my lower abdomen (they don't feel like the stretchy ligament type pains like last time) and my gynae did think my scan looked different from one day to the next. i just hope its going okay and that when i have my next scan next wednesday, i have a nice little heartbeat going.

sorry to continue to bogart this thread - i just can't make the jump - hope its okay.

hope everyone else had a good day.

Tjuice- whenevr you are ready to make the jump, we are there! Thanks for finding me on Facebook...

Kate- brave decision and I very much admire it. Sedning you and yours big big hugs and best wishes.

Jules- I haven't the words to make a difference in your life at the moment. Please know that I am thinking of you and send you big hugs.

Kate will miss you, take care.

SK that sounds like its very good news, hope you get a darker line in the morning!

TJuice that is good news!

Jess thanks for your post, that sounds very similar. I think for now I will put it down to hormones and see wht happens after I (think I) ovulate.

omg hormones are kicking in, im sitting here bawling my eyes out! 2 people leaving!!!

take care and never forget.....battered sausage

thats all i can say as i can barely see the screen

spookykitty!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
yay, that is fantastic news.

hope to get full-on confirmation very soon. best wishes xxx

ILTS - don't worry I'm going nowhere whatever happens tomorrow I'll miss you guys too much

Tjuice - good news about the scan, I reckon you must have a boy in there causing his Mummy all that worry

good! and good luck for the morning sk let us all know as soon as the pee hits the stick!!

remember when we were having a conversation about making a video about testing? i typed pregnancy test into youtube the other day and theres loads of people with testing vidoes etc lol

could be worse ILTS could have the actual baby making video on there can you imagine it, "right kids here's the video of the shag that made you"

herby and kitty - am keeping my eye out for your news! (that sounds like you're having a baby together - rather like Franny and Ruty?! lol)

Katend - sorry to see you go from this thread - will you hang around on MN?? I don't feel i ever got to "know" you on here (i read your posts etc, but we never interacted.) What a big brave decision you and dh have made though!! Enjoy your ds. Thanks for being such a great source of knowledge, fun, comfort and kindness to all on this thread!

Tjuice - sounding good!!!!!!!

Jules - so lovely to see your name again! Though i am so sad for you. You know we're here, whatever, don't you?

cd4 here so not a lot to say.... lol.
