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!!!

Hi VJay, thanks for including me on your list, here's the rest to update on the next one:

PurpleCrazyHorse - Cardiff, TTC DC1 Dec onwards

Getting guite excited but time is going slowly whilst I wait for December to come around. Who knows, it could take ages so I'm trying to prepare myself for the TTC rollercoaster.

However, spending a long weekend with friends and their 6wk old DS! This could put me off slightly and am toying with the idea of buying earplugs

sausagemcgrah · 26/11/2008 22:09

I'm so sorry to hear that things are still unresolved for you. It's such a hard time isn't it? I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for you to still be in limbo. I hope they're able to help at the hospital tomorrow. Will be thinking of you. Hopefully your missing AF will turn up before your DH comes home, then we'll definitely see you on here for good pretty soon!

EndlessNameless · 26/11/2008 22:13

PurpleCrazyHorse - greetings from another Cardiff girl

Barbie1 - hope you get some answers tomorrow, I can only imagine the frustration of being stuck in limbo. One of the few times where AF not arriving is a total b*gger

Sabs1981 · 26/11/2008 22:20

but am sending you lots of "calm down woman!" vibes lol

Night night all, must go to bed before I slide under the desk with exhaustion!

Sausage who better to give advice than someone who's going through all the same emotions

Sabs1981 · 27/11/2008 12:59

Afternoon all...hope everyones having a good day. Whats everyone up to today?

I'm at work, then off to a quiz night in the evening with people from work...

OP posts:
Sabs1981 · 27/11/2008 16:11

I will talk to myself then

I have decided that I am going to do something about my fat-ness and go to some exercise classes next week for a few weeks until (IF) i go to india. All my clothes are getting extremely tight
Don't mind the increase of weight on my boobs but the belly is not looking good at all.....

Ask me again this time next week if I kept to my promise....

(am also enjoying the use of smileys here as you can see!)

OMp b G SOO PISSED off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thought my AF had finished y.day but then started bleeding again!!!! Been to gps today , following unsucessful call to EPAU and now need swab for strep b and internal exam.Can get these done at work {funnily enough that is what i usually do to pts myself!!!] But thinking i wish i d never got PG in the first place a big fat waste of time and is putting me off trying again if this is it.

Been in tears at work SOO FED up of it all just want to get back to normal!!!

SABS hope troubles in India not putting you off.Off out for tea at friends now [don t really want to go}

sausagemcgrah · 27/11/2008 19:51

Hi everyone,

louisesh, sorry to hear you've had such a bad day. I hope someone can get to the bottom of this soon for you. I know exactly what you mean about wishing the previous miscarriage pregnancy had never happened. I think that so often as it really does seem to take a very long time for a body to recover from something like that - mentally and physically, and it has really affected how I feel about being pregnant in the future. I was sooooo laid back and easy going with my last pregnancy! Now I'm like a completely different person and I don't like it at all. Everything is so scary and I don't trust my body at all anymore.

Hi and welcome and good luck iggylou sabs - good luck with the fitness thing. Classes sound like a god idea. I hope it works. Are your India plans still on at the moment?

Hi to everyone else!

It's Friday tomorrow. Yippee. I am feeling calmer today so those vibes must have worked Sabs. I have also not had a chance to buy any pregnancy tests which has got to be a good thing. Although I am desperate to! I have had massive period pains all day though - a bit weird as AF not 'due' until Sun and normally I don't get pains in the run up to it just when it starts. On the other hand though, nothing suprises me now! Anything could happen!

Weird -twice -sorry!

EndlessNameless · 27/11/2008 19:58

Evening everyone

Sabs - the exercise sounds good. I really should lose the extra 20 pounds I'm carrying before ttc but am craving pasta due to the cold!

louisesh - poor you, sounds like this are pretty crappy at the moment. Chin up hun, it will get better.

Barbie1 - are you around, how did your appointment go today?

Sabs1981 · 28/11/2008 09:11

Just a quick good morning to everyone. Went to a quiz night with people from work last night so didnt log in in the evening. My team came third from last but had a good night!

Also find out today about my visa for india...

Promise to catch up with everyone later on. Hugs and kisses to all

Thanks for the welcome

anyone got any tips/ suggestions? or is there another thread I should hunt for?

Am taking some Folic Acid... am wondering what elase I should do (apart from the obvious!)

VillageMum · 28/11/2008 11:57

Hello barbie, great to see you on here too!!

sausage, know just what you mean about switching from laid back (during pg which ended in mc) to tense...

louisesh, how are you doing today?

iggylou, welcome! There are a million tips on the 'grapefruit drinking' thread - those ladies are really SERIOUS about ttc! Most important thing is finding you when you ovulate though, I'd say.

sabs good luck with your visa!

louisesh · 28/11/2008 12:45

Hi ALL VILLAGEMUM doing better today thanks less bleeding AGAIN and feel stonger emotionally today all very supportive at work.Went to tea with my friends was lovely {as knew would be if i made the effort}
