Anyone struggling to get baby number 2??

[Mrs W 11]

So we didn't dtd last night or this morning.... I'm so relaxed I didn't know what cd I was on!! I usually ov cd19 and I'm only 18 today. Opk was the most positive I've ever had last night, much darker than control so I think ill ov tomorrow and will dtd tonight.

Munchkin I had a cycle (cycle 2 after mc) where I bled/ spotted on/off all cycle long including through ov and from 4dpo. I wondered the same thing. I didn't get preg obviously but I did ovulate. X

Good Luck Mrs W!

I've got lots of watery/EWCM today and crampy on the right hand side. Hoping I'm gearing for early O!

 

[Munchkin30]

Celine that's amazing news. I'll PM her. I'll be keeping everything crossed this is her rainbow baby. I really worried she might never make it.

Mrs w it's so wierd. Today and yesterday have been the heaviest yet. After my last mc I had a really really heavy first AF but it only lasted a day or so longer. Second AF was super heavy too. This time is barely stopped spotting when AF started and it's getting heavier! I don't really know where I am, it might not even be AF but oll just keep peeing on sticks til something happens. I'm being much more relaxed than normal but there was a girl at my new work place about as pregnant as I should be and as soon as I saw her I felt like I'd been punched in the guts. So hard.

Brunette hope this is ov on it's way! Get BDing xx

 

[Mrs W 11]

munchkin. I know it's not the same becuase my work never even knew but a girl in my team is due 5 days after I was and seeing her big bump every day and people cooing over her is hard. I imagine how difficult it must be for you. Keep strong, remember the snakes & ladders and visualise your ladders.

I hope your cycle starts to regulate soon. When's your next acu? I had mine tonight and I'm confident it's working (sorry if I'm repeating myself) but I feel very balanced, grounded, calm and I'm sure it's the acu. Time is the only healer that can ease our pain and give us the babies we so want, and slowly but surely it's ticking by and our dreams will come true soon.

Xxxxx

Thank you mrs w. Such lovely thoughts. I am not religious but I often wish I were, then at times like thus if know this was all gods plan and it was happening for a reason. I truly believe we'll get there, we're just postponing the joy! I don't know the woman at work and I just wonder what journeys she's been through to get where she is now.

Acupuncture tomorrow. I am feeling calmer than usual already so we'll see how I feel after tonorrow xx

 

[Munchkin30]

Also Charlotte has a horrid cough and she's been really restless all evening. It breaks my heart, and I know it would have been unbearable watching Rowan go through all the suffering she'd have had to face if she'd survived. Bless your soul my beautiful angel xx

Munchkin:
I loved reading your thoughts today. I also am not religious but wish that I were. I'm often jealous of people who find peace in bad situations simply because it was "God's plan". I believe that nature controls all and nature is so very complicated and sometimes mistakes happen (like improperly fertilized eggs).

One of my biggest fears is having to face a situation like yours. I also have a friend who got pregnant with quads which would be equally hard (she reduced to twins). I think I would have made the same decision you did. I think that without good quality of life, life isn't worth living. But, I know my husband disagrees. He is religious and thinks that every life is worth living. I think a situation like that would tear us apart.

Sorry Charlotte is sick! It's a terrible feeling not being able to help.

Emily has just been a huge pain the last few days. She isn't listening to anything I say and is in a terrible mood. I think my husband being gone is starting to wear on her.

Hi W. you have been so upbeat about getting pregnant. Good for you!! I really hope it happens for all of us soon.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Well I was feeling very update but no temp change today

Now I'm feeling confused and upset. All I want is to be pregnant FFs!

 

[Mrs W 11]

*upbeat

 

[brunettebimbo]

Urgh I hate it when that happens! Maybe it will shift tomorrow!? BD again today incase!
Do you temp vaginally?

 

[brunettebimbo]

Mine didn't change today either!

 

[Button#]

Morning ladies, CD8 for me so let the bding being!

Munchkin - that sounds really confusing, it must be driving you mad to be still bleeding and not knowing what's going on.

Mrs W and Brunette - hope your temps shift tomorrow.

 

[brunettebimbo]

Thank you. I'm only CD12 so not expecting it to yet. I have signs of O so hopefully not to much longer!

We have my husbands Nan's funeral today, really not looking forward to it!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Brunette yes vaginally as the first time I tried orally they were all over the place. We dtd last night so will tonight again in hope it shifts tomorrow, which is annoying as ages and ages ago. Told my hubby it was best to dtd every other day to let the sperm renew or something and now he never wants to do it daily. Grrrrr!!!

I hate this time of the cycle, I can predict that I will now feel stressed about getting my temp tomorrow am, so I will wake up super early and not sleep so my temp will be off. Seems really odd for me that I had that blaring pos opk but no temp dip or rise yet.

How are you feeling today munchkin? How's charlottes cough, it's hard when they are poorly.

How you doing slg?

Button, enjoy the bding!! Good luck.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Brunette I'm sorry to hear that, I hope today goes as well as it can thinking of you xx

Hi ladies

I saw a baby due a the day after i was the other day and it was bittersweet, ok mostly because i am pregnant but it was the wierdest feeling looking at the baby, remembering the blueberry fetus i held in my hand...

I am a christian and try to find peace in Gods plans, however i have a super religious friend who doesnt have kids and never experienced any huge loss and she told me after the first mc that death comes from the devil and long story short made me feel like my baby died because i didnt beleive enough or pray enough
So now i avoid her, you can image what she tood me when she heard of the second mc because i did feel a strange peace and calmness, because n my heart i knew something was wrong and she got really angry at me for thinking that way.

Anyway, i do beleive its all in Gods plans, i dont know why i had to have two mc, i dont know why Rowan survived as long as she did and why some people have to experience so many losses. My one friend who had a late loss, baby died in utero at 30 weeks posted something loverly on facebook. It was a pocture of a little girl runnong thru the poppy blossoms and the text read something like "i can picture you running free in the blossoms wild and so carefree and timless that by the time you stop to look behind you, i will be there." I love that analogy very much.

Sorry for the long winded post!

Not rubbing my oregnancy in anyones face but ive had alot of stresses at home and i was so worried it would kill the baby. I know it sounds silly but my stmach felt hard and twisted. My moms been her three weeks and leaves tomorrow thank goodness, she and hubby get snippy with each other and i get caught in the middle

 

[Munchkin30]

Button yay for bding!! Are you doing opks? Post some pics, I love stalking opks!! I am off work today so drinking gallons of raspberry lea tea to try and get everything out. I think my opk was slightly darker today but still nowhere near. I'm sure my body knows what it's doing so just got to wait it out. Tick tock tick tock!

Mrs w sorry your temp is mucking about do you get ov pains? I usually spot it a mile off but it's hard if you're relying on temps. I had to stop temping because it was driving me mad! Have you thought of smep? You don't need to temp then.

Brunette hope today is not too painful. Some funerals can be lovely, especially when someone was very old. Hope you ov soon, what cd do u usually ov?

Celine the stress won't be hurting baby. It will be calm and peaceful in there sloshing about. When you're feeling stressed try and put your hand on your belly and think of that and take peace from the wonderful thing happening in your body! Glad your mums going though. Phew!!

Dd still has a cough but she's ok, except I keep damaging her today first I was trying to put her socks on and she was mucking about on the windowsill and slipped over and banged her head on the Window, then we were doing fuzzy felt and she was kneeling on her chair by the table and she slipped off, then we were feeding the tortoise and she burnt her hand on his heat lamp. And it's not even 10.30 yet! We're watching the Gruffallo now, she'll probably electrocute herself on the DVD player!!

 

[Button#]

Munchkin - hope your daughter makes it through the day with no serious injuries!

I'll start doing OPKs on Friday and post piccys for your inspection!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Haha munchkin, it's 4pm now so I hope you and your dd got through the rest of the day with no more incidents. I've found as Freya gets more steady and confident she's having more mishaps. She head butted a door handle this morning and fell off the sofa, too daring and quick for their own goods!!

I've kept my opks from the last few days so ill post a progression pic in a minute.

Sorry you are feeling stressed Celine. It won't harm the baby but I'm sure you will feel more relaxed once you have your house back to yourself again. As everyone in here has been through pregnancy I'm sure we all remember those raging preggo hormones, so wonderful but hard at the same time.

Hope you are ok brunette xx

 

[slg76]

Celine; glad that you are getting your space back to yourself soon. I think it's always hard to share your home, especially with people who are bickering.
I love the idea of that poppy post. I sure hope it's true!

DD is driving me nuts. I think we've just both been in a bad mood for a few days. Hubby was supposed to come home tomorrow for two days but now it sounds like he might not be able to. There was a power outage where he is and it messed up all the work schedules
