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

[thurl30]

Hi ttcmoon, welcome to the thread, sorry to hear about you losses

 

[Sooperhans]

Ttcmoon, so sorry for what you have gone through. Of course, you are more than welcome. I myself, plus many others here are ttc #1....hoping for 2013 luck! Have you had any tests or any explanations at all? Xxx

 

[Emmediva]

Ttcmoon, sorry for your losses welcome to the thread. As you can see we are all in different parts of our journeys but all share several miscarriages, we all support one another

Lexi, I hope you are already having your baby

AFM, just waiting and hoping Thursdays appointment will show further progress. I'm doing all I can to hurry things along but haven't really felt any significant changes, just some period like cramping here and there and pressure; nothing major. I've DTD Sunday and yesterday and have taken Evening primrose oil to help ripen my cervix, so wish me luck ladies I prefer to go natural vs being induced due to my baby getting big. I'm thinking they'll tell me he's already more than 7lbs this Tuesday, probably closer to 8

 

[thurl30]

Not long now Emme Fingers crossed for your appointment, hopefully all the things you have been doing will help you along so you don't have to be induced x

Emme--Yeah my SIL said the HB was in the 170's each scan even the last gender scan at 18 wks and its a boy. I have been hearing about a blood test that you can get done early to tell you the gender but my ob does not even do NT scanns just a blood test for that so I doubt they would be able to do the jack and jill test. I bet when you go back for your appt you will be dilated more since you have been cramping.

Lexi---So exciting contractions getting closer yet?

NTAT--So glad the spotting has stopped. But I don't understand how betas are unreliable .

Nicki--I know I cannot believe I am so close to the second tri. 2 1/2 wks left. It did not feel like it was going fast but now that I look back it seems like it has flown by. I just hope the next few weeks flies by also. Glad you had a good relaxing Christmas and New Years.

ttcmoon-- Welcome so sorry for your loss.

Thurl--How have you been??

AFM--So far so good. I woke up this morning with a sore throat hoping it goes away if it was from snoring. I have an appt next week on thurs will be 11 wks 5 days. The nurse never called me back mon from what happened with my confusing dr visit and I just put in a call for he to call me back. I am still nausas and have a growling feeling in my stomach like I am hungry even though I just ate and it does not help with nausa but I do not mind any of it (well maybe the growling stomach) .

Hello ttcmoon :wave: sorry for your losses but I hope you find some comfort from chatting to the lovely ladies here. Sometimes you need to 'talk' to people who know how you're feeling and what you're going through.

 

[thurl30]

Hi Monro, I'm ok thanks, I can't believe you are nearly 11 weeks, that's amazing and it's gone so quick

 

[Emmediva]

Anyone hear from Lexi yet? I think she's probably holding her baby now

 

[thurl30]

Ahhh I hope so

 

[NewToAllThis]

Hi all,

Just popping in to say I had an early scan today (5 weeks 5 days by LMP) and baby has a heartbeat!
I'm ecstatic as never seen one before. They said everything looks perfect for my dates and I go back in two weeks for another scan.

Way to go new!!! xx

Quick update from hospital will give you all the gory details later. Our baby girl arrived at 00.04 this morning weighing 7lb 8oz! 47 hours after my waters broke! I can tell you that synthetic hormone drip is evil i was going mental, and epidurals are the way forward!! after all day and night in hospital her heartrate was fine and just as i started pushing it kept dipping, they werent happy so was rushed to theatre for episiotomy and forceps delivery. my downstairs will never be the same again. but we are both here to tell the tale that's the main thing!

Will do pics and more info when i get home, hopefully out tom, they want 24hrs of obs. Name still to be decided!!! x

 

[Nicki123]

What fabulous news Lexi!! Congratulations. You must be exhausted, I did chuckle at your 'downstairs' comment looking fwd to name announcement and photos shortly.

Also great news from NTAT - great start to the year ladies

 

[Emmediva]

NTAT, Yay for a heartbeat!!! that is wonderful news!!

Lexi, I've heard BAD things about the synthetic medicine makes me shudder. I'm so happy you have your baby in your arms though!!!! And that you are both healthy and fine! Sorry to hear you had an episiotomy I've heard they give you a spray to use down there that will help with the pain. My sister told me it was a life saver Get some rest hun after all that your body went through, you need to get your strength back. We are all going to be here waiting for an update from you.

AFM, ultrasound and doctor appt this afternoon. Ladies I am in pain... I barely slept last night, my inner thighs pelvic area was hurting, as was my lower back. TMI, the only thing that felt good was when I went to the restroom to pee and just sat there, legs wide open my husband kept asking if I'd fallen in the toilet I am thinking next Friday will be my last day at work, I'll be 38 weeks by then and honestly it gets harder to get out of bed and going as the days go by send some labour dust my way Lexi I want bubs out.

 

[Sooperhans]

Fantastic, oh congratulations Lexi! I've been anxiously awaiting your news. Ouch, hope you are ok, look forward to a pic and name!! Xxx

Ntat, that's bloody brilliant news. Completely made up for you xxx

Acu tonight. She's going to love me, 2 courses of antibs since my last appt! X

 

[NewToAllThis]

Congratulations Lexi, glad she arrived safe and sound. I also chuckled at your downstairs department comment. Hope it's not too sore. Ouch.

Can't wait to hear more details xx

 

[monro84]

NTAT--Yay!!!1 that is so great so happy for you. I saw the heart beat at 5 wks 6 days but US said 5 wks 5 days it was 93 .16 bpm.

Lexi--Wow that great you get to hold your little girl now so exciting. Where you trying to do it naturally episiotomies are very commmen in the states and almost every vag birth has one? Whats the synthetic hormone's is that to help you dilate I think the use pectin here. Can't wait for pic of your preciouse little angel.

Emme- Sorry your in pain. I bet your dilated more maybe those pains are the LO getting ready to come.

AFM--my throats still sore but not as bad as yesterady now a scratchy soreness but I have alot of drainage which made me sick this morning on an empty stomach AGAIN. Ugh. I cannot even clear my throat for fear of throwing up. I also talked to the nurse yesterday when she called back. She confirmed that everything will get done at my next visit next Thrus including an US.. I will be 2 days from 12 wks. I also told her about my sore throat and she said to gargle with salt water and if it gets worse or if I run fever or if I am having yellow drainage then to come in.

 

[thurl30]

Lexi you did it, you're finally a mummy I am so pleased for you, what a long road, you have really given me hope look forward to hearing more from you when you're home and rested

NTAT amazing news from you too, what a great day for the thread, so pleased for you hun, another milestone reached

Emme sorry you are in so much pain hun, could this mean things are going to happen soon do you think? Really hope you don't have to wait too much longer

Monro nearly 12 weeks that's fantastic, sorry to hear about the problems with your throat though, hope you get better soon

Soop hope your acu goes well

Just done my first clexane injection, didn't feel it going in bit it stings now

Quick question, I didn't get given a sharps box, should I have been?

 

[ayclobes]

I have been sick on and off since christmas. I had strep on christmas, so i got put on an antibiotic, i had the flu on 1/1-1/2, and i still have a cold. Now, i'm pretty certain i have BV but i cant get into the doctor just yet to get an antibiotic to resolve this issue mainly b/c my dh's employer decided to take me off his insurance and they reported to the insurance company that it was an individual account. So, i have to wait until that gets all straightened out..ugh.

I was supposed to go to my dr appt/nst yesterday but had to cancel..no way was i in any shape to go. My dr appt will be on 1/9 and it'll have to be my 34w/35w appt and nst all in one.

 

[Emmediva]

Just got out of my doc appt, bubs is weighing 7.10lbs it was very hard to get a measurement of his head cause he is so far down now. But there has been no change in dilation or effacement since last week nothing. So the pains I'm getting is where he's so far down in my pelvis. I don't get why if he's so engaged I haven't dilated nor effaced more ugh! I asked the nurse practitioner if she thinks I'll have to make it to 40 weeks and she said no that my doctor wouldn't let me get to that point... So I have to get things going or ill have to be induced or even worse have a C-Section
