Phew, it?s going to be a long post ? that will teach me to go off and do a full day?s work and not sit around avoiding work at home and spending all my time on MN as usual. I missed you girls though!
Hello Mopey! Glad to see you on here, having chatted elsewhere. Everyone is very nice and we really can seem to help each other out by swapping info, research and plain old chit chat about how we are all feeling both physically and emotionally.
Hello BabyLL, glad you have joined us for support. Yes it is a great sign that you might have ov already, despite no AF. Can I ask you what signs you have out of interest? I think I might have done too. Is it even possible to ov before af after mc? I guess it must be as plenty of people don ?t wait. I think I am joining you in the waiting game at least for one AF. Funny, I am also mentally working out when any baby might be born and how that would fit in my lifestyle but, then the pessimistic side of me adds to that 1) I might not get pg again that easily and 2) I might have another mc!
I agree that it?s hard to talk to RL friends who want you to have moved on. I am seeing friends I don?t see regularly so I have to tell them the whole story from scratch over and over. I guess I could keep quiet but I can?t pretend things have been ok when they haven?t and it goes very far to explain why I have been so distracted and low.
I love Australia so you are most welcome! I too am a travelling girl today ? been working on an industrial estate in Creepy Crawley
Hello MsJL! Welcome to the topic. Really glad you joined us. I don?t think it matters (in terms of the thread that is) that you are a multiple. Some of us (like me to a certain extent) are also. I can?t imagine how you must be feeling after 5 mmcs in any period of time, let alone such a short one. I can only hope that we can help you feel better, all help each other feel better in some small way.
I too was awake at 5am feeling depressed and tearful. I woke up and wrote a list of all my feelings and physical symptoms which makes depressing reading. In the cold light of the early hours with a bit of discomfort still and some dark thoughts I felt old for the first time in my life. Having led a very ?young? lifestyle this was a real shock to me. Having gone from being super fit and strong and feeling I could take on the world just a few months ago, I worried that my body wouldn?t be able to cope with another pg or would result in mc. So I really can only imagine what you might be going through after 5. Makes me want to give you a big hug. And a large vodka. Makes me want to believe in something to make things better but I am not sure what. Glad Inmaculda and Harrassed had some positive words for you too.
Hello again Cream, not sure about my exact date either re stats. I have put 19th March as that was the day I started spotting and getting cramps.
Hello Really - Post Birthday, hope you had an ok night in the circumstances. I was checking this thread until the early hours with not much concentration going on in this goldfish brain of mine. I think suggesting counselling (as you did to MsJL) is not a bad idea. I had a few weeks worth when I was younger and felt it really helped.
Magic, on a lighter note I love Blackheath and Richmond too! We are so lucky to have such green spaces here in London. I am about ten mins walk from Blackheath and Greenwich Park so will be making the most of that whilst it is sunny. Re bad eggs over 35, pah ? what can we do?!
And yes, BigFlip, it has indeed been such a lovely day. My dark mood from 5am lifted. Hope all your dark moods have their lighter shades too. Hope I haven't missed anyone xx
