I had a MMC in september and was told to wait 3 months before ttc.
Looking to connect with other for ladies who are waiting for the new year ttc
The waiting is so hard!!!

Thanks VJAY for adding my details.My day ok , but long, at work for 12 hours tired but got tomorrow off so looking foreward to that!!! Hope you had a good day its soo cold!!!!

nomoremagnolia · 26/11/2008 08:15

Well I don't think I need worry about being naughty - AF has arrived earlier than expected - 10 days after EP ??? I have NO IDEA what my body thinks it's doing!

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 09:20

louisesh enjoy your day off. Hope you have a lie-in. Its so difficult to wake up in the mornings when its so cold and dark outside...oh well, less than a month to go before we're off to India - that's if our visa issues get resolved!

nomoremagnolia sorry to hear AF arrived. Hopefully thats your last one for 9 months [winks]

sabs hope your visa gets sorted out - any progress?

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 10:55

well we've given our parents passports in, so should find out by the end of this week.

How have you been VM? I still need to order your book!

Somehow missed this thread. Hello everyone.

Planned to be ttc in the New Year but currently toying with the idea of making this my last pill packet rather than starting a new one to take me through to January.

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 11:50

Welcome to the thread LaDiDaDi. Feel free to add your details to the list

Good luck to you whenever you decide to ttc!

VillageMum · 26/11/2008 12:09

sabs, I really hope it works out for you - am sure it will once they see your parents' passports!

I am OK, trying to master natural panic at ttc again after mc... some days are better than others! Wish the fear would just go completely but I guess it never will.

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 12:27

VM I will come to you for advice then as by the time I ttc you will have mastered how to get over that fear!

But I think you are right, we will never get over that fear. DH plans to wrap me in bubble wrap AND cotton wool when (if) i do get pregnant again! Don't know how that's going to work out, especially when im at work I have strange visions now....maybe i'll get a seat on my packed commuter train if im dressed like that!

Think im getting a bit carried away now!

VillageMum · 26/11/2008 13:09

Oh sabs, I really hope it all goes well for us both next time! I find I'm stressing about being stressed, if you know what I mean - it's a vicious circle! And then on other days I feel quite OK about it all. Just wish the rollercoaster would end! A trip to India and a total break sounds like just the thing...

louisesh · 26/11/2008 13:31

SABS Hope you re visa is sorted!!! Roll on India I m off to Bruges for a mini cruise on saturday for 4 days with family REALLY looking foreward to it!!! We need stuff to look foreward to and enjoy after what we ve been through.

Well at last first AF finished after the longest AF i ve ever had!!!! 12 days OMG!!!!
NOMOREMAGNOLIA i ve learnt theres no point in analysing your body following a EP or MMC as there seems no logic or rationale to whats happening as you can see above!!!!

Roll on the good times for us all.

Hi to *LADIDADI Welcome

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 13:58

VM know exactly what you mean about the rollercoaster! I got my second AF mon afternoon, and i was estactic, over the moon, cos it meant that i only had to wait 1 more, but then when i went to bed, i was just sobbing to DH that I shouldnt have had AF at all, I was meant to be halfway through my pregnany, I should have been 20 week and looking forward to my next scan...But I pray that it goes well for all of us...

louisesh enjoy your cruise. What's the weather meant to be like?

I am looking forward to getting away, but a trip to India is not a proper holiday for me as it means spending a lot of time with DH's extended family, which can be hard work! Plus the time when I am over there is the time we'll be ttc again, not the ideal situation. But can't complain too much

12 days, wow, that is a long time! I'm on my second AF since my mc and both times have been so heavy...wonder why that is?

Hear hear about the good times..as I keep on sayin, New Year, new beginnings...

VJay · 26/11/2008 15:41

hi sabs I do hope your visas get sorted soon, it will be so nice to get away, and you too louisesh, the cruise sounds lovely.
I know what you mean about the rollercoaster ride of emotions we all experience. Now we've decided to ttc now I'm excited and anxious at the same time. I'm trying to be all calm and relaxed about it, but it is hard.

louisesh · 26/11/2008 18:10

SABS weather in Bruges is cold like here however i m not at work and never been on a cruise {all be it mini!!!} before soo dead excited!!! Yes , very pleased to have stopped bleeding!!!

I feel same as you SABS keep thinking now i should have been 17 weeks and having my next scan just before xmas BUT..... wasn t mean t to be..... Try not to concentrate on that too much just focussing on the future!!!

VJAY again i know exactly what you mean its scarey and exciting at the same time you can t help but think each time you have BD this could be the one!!!! Take care

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 20:40

hello ladies, hope you're having a nice evening.

I'm watching the news about the horrible shootings in mumbai in india...where i'm supposed to be in a months time! Really dont think I will get my visa now

Hi everyone,

It's been a few days since I posted. I have a hard time keeping up with mumsnet as much as I'd like.

I hope you're all having a lovely week. My week is going veeerrrrry veeerrrryyy slowly, as AF is due on Sun, and I don't take the 2 week wait well! I am the most impatient person on this planet and am going to explode soon I think. How will I ever make it until Sunday? Knowing my luck I'll have a 36 day cycle now instead of a 28 day one just to stretch out the agony a little longer! (It's only my second period after my missed miscarriage so I guess anything can happen. My periods were very eeratic after I stopped breastfeeding DD if that's anything to go by) Arrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Help me!

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 21:49

sausagemcgrah cant really help but can send you lots of hugs and positive thoughts????

OP posts:
sausagemcgrah · 26/11/2008 21:49

Just need to add another 'Arrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'. There. I'm feeling slightly better now.

So when is too early to test?

sausagemcgrah · 26/11/2008 21:51

Hi sabs,

Thanks for the message. Hugs and positive thoughts are perfect. Send me some 'calm down woman' vibes as well!

That's terrible about what's happening in Mumbai. Will you still try and go? Maybe the situation will have calmed down by then?

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 21:51

i feel really useless now as i dont have any good advice to give

OP posts:
sausagemcgrah · 26/11/2008 21:54

noooooo don't feel useless! I don't think there is any good advice other than probably wait until Sunday and see what happens. Probably a period as I'm sure we didn't BD at the right times anyway - and I have been that stressed and upset still following the MMC that it will be a miracle if anything if I am pregnant anyway!

Just wanted to vent! Thanks for just listening.

barbie1 · 26/11/2008 21:58
