A group for TTC#1 and had more than one loss?

[Ladyfog]

Lady...you will have ups and downs hun and it is going to be hard....loving todays PMA...are you going to put up a ticker?

XxX

NSN - I tried to do that the other day but couldn't work out how! How do you do a ticker? Where do you get the pictures etc from? Thanks!

 

[Tweak0605]

Ladyfog - I hope you're doing okay today For a ticker, some girls like the ones from here:

https://global.thebump.com/tickers/default.aspx -- that tell you how big baby is .. you can also search for pregnancy tickers and see what comes up. Once you get the code, go to User CP then Edit Signature and paste it in there.

NSN - Sorry the dream had you in a funk. They do that to me too, when I have them. Totally throws off my whole day.

Raspberry - Any news yet?

BeachChica - You're more than welcome to join our group. Sorry about your losses You'll find a great group of girls here for support.


Soooo, I think I've had a change of mind regarding next cycle. I know I said I was going to go to the doctors, but now I'm thinking of taking a break. It's going to be around the holidays, and I'm not sure if I want to endure testing and everything before Christmas time. We may just quit EVERYTHING - no OPKs, temping, checking CM or CP .. nothing. Not sure though. In some ways, I want to, so I can focus on my weight loss, but I desperately want a baby as well. To see so many friends out there getting pregnant and having babies, makes me feel worse that I don't have mine.

We'll see

Tweak, I can absolutely relate to your feelings. I have heard of so many stories where the couple gives up ttc, and then they get pregnant! Also, I can say that these last 2 months off of ttc for me have been a treat, no temping, no opk's, no hpt's no symptoms spotting, much more relaxing. You have to do what you feel is best for you

It looks like you guys have a long posting but can I join you guys? I am TTC #1 after 3 MC's in the last year. Just went through all of my testing with the specialist and just got the green light to start trying so we did this month. FX that this will be good month.

Welcome...so sorry for your losses I only set this thread up a short while ago, scary how many of us are all in the same boat for this month and

You are more than welcome to join this threat Beachchica. So sorry for your losses - did the specialist find anything wrong? Glad you are able to try again. Lots of coming your way.

RM - any news? Hope it's BFP but if not, we'll all be here for hugs . Thinking of you.

AFM, after my PMA of yesterday morning, work was an absolute nightmare - was in floods of tears by lunchtime! I've made a mistake with some numbers I was working on and I really p*ssed off my manager - pretty sure it wouldn't have happened if I had been thinking straight. My manager who knew all about my MCs and had experienced similar things herself left at the end of Sept and I've got a new manager (a man) who knows nothing about what I've been through this year so I can't explain to him why I've been so stupid. I'm just not sure he'll understand if I do tell him so for now I'm just biting my tongue and trying to patch up the mess I've made

I'm sorry...this is how it will be for a while...lacl of concentration etc, don't beat yourself up over it

If you feel comfortable telling him then do, personally...I'd just use the womens problems excuse and hopefully he will back off.

As for tickers, where you a tickers in siggy's that you like, click on them and they will take you to the site so you can make your own. Copy the link for the forum code and then add it to your signature. I'm crap at explaining sorry

Tweak..you do whatever you feel is right, I don't know how people totally shut off from TTC once they know all the stuff hoping that you CAN switch off from it all and get a lovely sticky BFP in the process

RM...did you test hun

Happy Friday all and have a good weekend

XxX

 

[RaspberryMini]

I've not tested properly yet.... I say properly because DH was on call with his job last night and we had a night of very interrupted sleep, I was so tired this morning it completely went out of my head. I tried when I got home from work just but my wee was so pale and diluted I decided to wait a bit longer.

Still no sign of AF but other than that don't feel any different. I'm officially 1 day late now but it doesn't really mean much since this is only the first full cycle after the 2nd mc I think my body is just playing tricks on me!

I'll post back first thing tomorrow - I've in got a digi ready just in case

 

[Neversaynever]

RM...hoping the delay is because you are preggo

Some happy news for me...I went for an interview and I got offered the job pending references will be a fresh start to 2012 and much needed

Congratuations!!!!! jeeez glad there is sone good news today on this thread regardless of what type of news it it!

and good luck RM! Not feeling anything means nothing, there were at least two times where I conceived and had no smyptoms beyond missging af!

 

[BeachChica]

You are more than welcome to join this threat Beachchica. So sorry for your losses - did the specialist find anything wrong? Glad you are able to try again. Lots of coming your way.

Thanks Ladyfog - My last MC was tested and found out it was a Trisomy 12 (doesn't really mean much because they have no way or knowing that the others were the same cause). Then after about 3 1/2 months of a variety of testing with a specialist the only thing they really found was a high Homocysteine level. There are some conflicting beliefs on whether this would cause a MC. Regardless, it apparently can cause birth defects so I am now on 2 mg of Folic Acid (in addition to my prenatal vitamins) to get this level down. Basically my doctor just feels like I have just had "bad luck" and I kept falling into the normal statistic that approx 40% of pregnancies end in MC. I am hoping that all the poking around they did helped "clear things out" for a successful pregnancy next time!!!

Raspberry - FX that you are prego too!! My last pregnancy I was waiting and waiting for AF just thinking that my cycle was still out of whack and it ended up being a BFP!!!

Thanks hun I'm so indecisive that it's hard for me to figure out what to do

See that's thing, I don't know if I can just stop doing everything. I've been doing it for probably about 10 months - 1 year of TTC and 2 months of that I was pregnant. I don't think I'm can just stop.

I've not tested properly yet....

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Neversaynever]

Mpepe...good news is good news, it's lifted me although in the back of my mind, I wonder if it means I wont be getting pregnant anytime soon or I wouldn't have got the job crazy irrational thoughts I know but hey how are you doing?

RM...any news?

Tweak...do what you feel is comfortable. We will be having a forced break in December and most likely January possible February too so I'm perturbed at how I'll feel but have no choice which I'm hoping makes it easier

Patiently...you ok?

Lady...how you holding up sweet?

Future...Bells...beach...sa Jenny penny...NTAT....pink...everyone else that I missed...hope you are doing ok

[RaspberryMini]

First of all congratulatlations on the job NSN, I really hope this is the start of things looking up for you

And thanks to everyone for all the well wishes.... So I tested this morning firstly on cheap pink dye test from amazon and both DH and I could see I line appearing being the impatient people we are I whipped out the digi, and got pregnant 2-3!!

I'm happy but so so scared at the same time, I don't feel any symptoms other than AF is late. It's like it easier to pretend I've not seen the BFP, wish I could take a magic wand To prevent feeling the terror.

I still don't really believe it so DH is going to let me get more tests today, so I'm going take some time try and let it sink in, and make a Dr appointment first thing on Monday.

Hope everyone else is good

 

[NewToAllThis]

Oh my gosh Raspberry, thats amazing. So soon after your m/c too, gives me hope!
Congrats hun

Will catch up with you all in a bit, just popped in for RM's news... so glad I did

 

[Ladyfog]

I have my sister staying this weekend but just popped in to see if there was any news and wow! Congratulations to both NSN and RM!!!!

NSN, it's great to have a new challenge and it doesn't mean you won't get pregnant. Maybe feeling you have to have a break will take the pressure off a bit, which may do you good

RM - I told you having no symptoms means nothing!! Lots of early symptoms are just related to the progesterone that you would have in your system whether you were pregnant or not so not having any symptoms means nothing hun Mine are slowly building now - boobs getting bigger, feeling a bit queezy, tired etc but remember that HGC builds over the next few weeks and doesn't peak until wk10. There's plenty of time for symptoms over the next 9 months!

Mpepe - I'm glad they didn't find anything really wrong but sometimes bad luck makes you feel so hopeless.

AFM, having a good weekend with my sister - a break from worrying for a bit

[BeachChica]

Wow Congrats Raspberrymini!!!

Its so great to hear good news when we're all mostly on here because of bad news! Gives us all hope!!! Keep us posted!!

 

[filipenko32]

Hi ladies, can I join you? I fit this thread and i have only just seen it!! I am just turned 32 and have had three losses at around 8 weeks over 10 months. I has been a horrible year. At the moment I am about 7 days away from bfp testing after my 3rd loss and with no af. yet after the 3rd mc. I know I ov'd so we really went for it and i'm hopeful!! Congratulations raspberry!! fantastic news! That gives me a lot of hope too.

Hi Cazi :wave:

 

[RaspberryMini]

Thanks so much for all the well wishes

I'm still waiting for it to sink in at the moment and hoping this time we have our forever baby. By online DD calculators I'll be due 11th July, which just seems ages away!!

The only weird symptom I've had is that I've been making red velvet cupcakes today and I had to get DH to come test the cake batter as the smell was making me heave - I normally love cake batter! Good job though with the raw eggs and all.

We're not telling anyone this time if we can help it, DH's parents have not given much support in the past (that's a whole different story!) and I can't bear to see the disappointment on parents faces but I'm hoping to be able to give everyone the good news at Christmas.

Filipenko welcome we've been trying since Jan 2011 too and I'm 32 this month. Have you had tests now?

I hope this is a lucky thread and we can all go on the same journey together

 

[filipenko32]

Hi Raspberry, thank you. I have had every test and everything is fine. We're waiting for chromosome results back from the fetus of the 3rd mc but we never got the others tested as i didn't have an erpc then. How many dpo were you when you tested on the digi - that's great to get a 2-3 already, I think that's a fantastic sign that everything's going to be perfect this time.
