2013 losses- rainbow baby making thread...

[Neverending]

@karen I am sorry I hope you guys can figure something out. I couldn't imagine and hope hope hope you don't have to try for much longer!
@lucy I have bipolar and this is somewhat different becaise my emotions change so fast when I'm being "bipolar" its like three days happy three days sad. I hope your cycle is okay!

I'm just so thankful for my partner. I honestly don't think I could cope with this without him. I like how he is concerned and knows my body too.
Trying isn't the fun part a healthy pregnancy imo would be the fun part.
I'm still not working I need to find work soon I'm just scared if I overwork something will happen. But I can't live in fear.

At our buriel site the lilies we planted along with the tree will be blooming soon. Excited for that.

to all.

Aloha...so psyched and excited as we will be TTC starting tomorrow. I totally feel ready after having a miscarriage in February. This time around, I am putting so much awareness and intention into trying to conceive. I have even been attempting pre-birth communication with my unborn child with success. I do believe I will have a soul enter my body very soon. Keeping thoughts positive.

Here we go again. I got my cross hairs. I'm on Cd19-3dpo today

 

[Cryssie]

I got a small dip today 8dpo. How much of a dip is implantation?

Hi ladies, may I join?

I lost my angel March 31st and we will be starting ttc again in May.

Awesomesauce - I hate when people say that too. "Ah, you're still trying....but that's the best/funnest part, right?!" /facepalm Yes, it's TOTALLY fun for DH and I to try and dtd when we're exhausted or grumpy and not in the mood, but feel like we have to in order to attempt catching an egg. It's TOTALLY fun for DH to jizz in a cup and stuff it in his shirt pocket to warm up/liquefy (for delivery to a complete stranger, to boot) while we chat about banalities.

You're right: I think when people say that, they haven't had to go through the countless cycles of charting, temping, hormones, invasive procedures, and losses we deal with in order to have a child.

Karenh - I'm so sorry hun. This road is a tiring one. Would your DH be amenable to ntnp after a certain number of Femara/IUI cycles instead of just being done completely? DH and I did the ntnp thing this cycle with no charting/temping/discussion of ttc (but also no BCP) while I wait for my first AF, and to be honest, it's been a huge stress relief. I'm ready to start actively ttc again, but it has been nice having a break.

Honestly, I would LOVE that. The issue is that I don't ovulate on my own, so either we are trying or we aren't, there is no in between. It is really frustrating some times.

I am sorry for your loss. You are right, people have no idea what we go through. Yesterday DH said, isn't raising the child supposed to be the hard part, not getting the child?

Had an ultrasound today---it's been two weeks since I started bleeding. Everything looked clear, although the tech wouldn't say anything about the thickness of my lining. Still worried it's too thin.

Anyone know anything about charting? My temps are still low, no sign of ovulation. If I don't ovulate are they just going to stay low? Really tempted to start TTC now, but I was going to wait one cycle---but I can't stand waiting! Going to see my family doctor on Friday, so maybe I'll ask her opinion too.

Karen, I'm so sorry, that has to be excessively frustrating. I'm sending good vibes your way.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please join us. I hope you can find the support and healing you need.

 

[MrsBroodyPant]

Thank u ladies. Xxx

 

[AwesomeSauce]

Oh broodypants I am so sorry. Late miscarriage was the absolute hardest saddest time for me. I am sorry you had to experience it. I hope your body gets back on board for a healthy pregnancy very fast.

I think I ovulated yesterday. I am a little ticked that my husband chose to fiddle with his iPod playlist instead of coming to bed with me two days ago. My chances are pretty much nil until last month.

 

[Peacenik]

Broodypants, I'm so sorry. Hugs.

I'm so sorry for your loss, getting to 14 weeks and then losing your previous baby girl must be heart breaking we're all here for you though

 

[PeachDaisy]

We unfortunately had an ectopic pregnancy which was obviously a very horrible hard loss this year. It was our first pregnancy too. We were just given the okay to start TTC again in June, so June it is!

Good luck to all you other ladies as well! Lots of

 

[MrsBroodyPant]

Thank u all.

Its nice to have supportive people to chat to and ones who know what it feels like to loss your precious child. Im very sorry for all your losses too. Its all very sad xxx

 

[AwesomeSauce]

I saw a different ob today. He seems more proactive and compassionate. He wants me to wait two more cycles before we TTC again. I feel like a toddler who wants to throw a tantrum. I don't wanna wait...haha.

It seems like all of these other women have had dr's tell them one cycle is plenty. A 6+3 miscarriage shouldn't take two cycles to recover from.

 

[Raggydoll]

Hi PeachDaisy. I'm sorry for your loss. Welcome to the group.

Awesome Sauce, my GP said they normally advise to wait a couple of cycles because it's easier to date the pregnancy.

The waiting is so frustrating. TTC is giving me something positive to focus on.

I am so sorry for your loss. Ectopics are so hard. Did you have methotrexate? I had an ectopic as well with my first pregnancy. I had methotrexate at 8 weeks on Jan 28th. I have been finally cleared to ttc again in May. My IUI should be on the 4th. It will be nice to be able to try and move on from this loss.

I'm sorry Peach, ectopics are a special hell.
