hormone crash after ERPC

[jaspie]

Fit you must be so nervous about next week, after last time of course it will be worrying and stressful but I really think it will be okay. The chances are so low of there being a problem again and I'm sure you'll have a wonderful scan and you'll be so relieved. A week from now you'll be able to relax and start enjoying your pregnancy That's a long time to wait for autopsy results isn't it? Did they give you any idea of timescale?
Thanks both, good to know you felt the same and it was real! Argh....scared!

Afternoon to my bump buddies and soon to be bump buddies! How are we all?
Day 2 here feeling a little more human whoop whoop and my bleedings almost stopped so please keep your fingers crossed for me that its coming to an end.
Jaspie it all sounds amazingly positive and im so excited for testing to begin.
Hopie I hope you are still receiving positive news about your parents and squeezing on some me time.
Fit Ik aorry you havent got the autopsy results back yet, it a worry isnt it. Here in the UK they dont test baby so I have no idea why our last baby died. Im sure your scan will be just perfect this time, I have such good vibes for us all.
Bernie I have absolutely no fender vibes as such. I knew DS was a boy and ive always been convinced Id have 2 boys but my scan pic is making me think pink?!? Its also very different to DS pic and this pregnancy is very different so that could be clouding my judgement. Hows your boy bump coming along? I cant believe youre very nearly half way there eeeeeek!!!
Love to everyone and huge amounts of baby dust to Jaspie xxx

Hi Friends,
As always, thank you for the well wishes. Same here. Dad is the same. I sound and fell like an old broken record!

Fit - just as Jaspie said, totally to be expected you will be nervous as heck at the scan appointment, but chances are soo high that your baby will be just fine. I'm glad you had a weekend to your self with no plans..sometimes that is just the best. I have such good and positive feelings for you!
I didn't realize you did not yet get the test results back from after this miscarriage. Wow, that is a very long time. You will receive the results next week? I have not gotten mine because of everything that has happened-- never made f/u appt. with my ob/gyn, which I have to do once I get back to the city -- July, I guess. Sigh.

Blu- so glad the bleeding has seemed to have stopped now. Hopefully for good is right! Yes, sanitary break sure would be nice now for the next 6 months! Good it has not been fresh blood and sure sounds like it will resolve and stop in 2nd tri. No gender feeling? Perhaps girl since this pregnancy is so different?!

Bernie- thanks so much for all your well wishes. I can't believe it will soon be 17 weeks for you! Second tri, energy is supposed to be the highest, right? How is your mom feeling?

Jaspie- we all have SUCH good feelings June is the month for baby Jaspie!!! Soo excited for you.

For all of you! So I live vicariously through you. Seriously have zero life. I'm okay with it -- I need to take care of my mom for a while more. I just feel rather depressed. But enough on that. A better week ahead for my dad, I pray. I keep having dreams of a baby. It's rather upsetting. I mean to ttc now living here is like..impossible! And I'm older and time is running out. Thinking of looking into adoption..

Looking forward to your happy updates. Take good care~ xxxx

Thanks Blu and Jaspie.

Sorry in advance, but a bit of a whine: a dear old friend is getting married the week after my scan at a resort 10 hours away. Another dear friend will be attending too, as will DH and I.

I just found out among the confirmed guests are several "mean girls" from high school who (I think) don't like me still. All of them have children now.

I just feel like the stakes are extra high now! If I have a terrible scan not only will I be heartbroken, I'll be heartbroken and spending the weekend with mean high school bitches that all have perfect children. Ugh.

 

[bernie86]

Fit- I can definitely relate to what you are feeling right now, you sound like me before my 10 week appt that I was dreading so much... For me I realized I didnt actually have fear or the bad feeling that I had with my first pregnancy, it was just the bad memory of what had happened... I think we all have this trauma that we just dont get over. My advise is to trust your gut feeling about this baby. But the fear of the unknown isnt easy to overcome. I hope you get the results for the last baby and get some closure that way. and I dont blame you for feeling the way you do about those girls... it is a legitimate fear. but remember they may have perfect kids, but you are a mom to a perfect angel and a perfect miracle... hold your head high!

Hopie- sounds like you are doing pretty good! A better week for sure! and adoption is always a wonderful option! so many children looking for what you are going to offer! I cant believe its been 16 weeks already... the time left makes me stress! Thanks for asking about my mom, shes been doing pretty good right now, side effects from last treatment finally seem to be subsiding.

Blu- I think team pink for you for some reason! glad the bleeding has stopped again, we all deserve a break from that while preggo! My Baby bump is starting to show up now... from the front i look fat but the side view is pretty obvious... I need to go get some Mat pants, but have been rocking the maxi skirts and dresses for the last 3 weeks.

Jaspie- looking forward to hearing how the test goes tmw!just dont forget no doesnt always mean no this early!!!!!

 

[Blu10]

Evening girls hope everyone had a lovely day?
Im sorry things are still rubbish for you Hopie, you must be so fed up, keep your chin up it can only get better!
Fit your bambino is going to be amazing I just know it and as for the high school bullies, theyre opinion is meaningless, your a much better person, hold your head high!
Bernie im glad your bump is appearing, have you felt movements yet?
Jaspie im excited by your first test and have everything crossed.
Ive definitely felt rounder the last few days and im not convinced its all bloat, how can I be getting a bump at 13 weeks?!? It is lovely though 😊 baby is literally sitting roght on the surface at night, ai can feel a hard lump which is very uncomfortable so if I gently give it a poke it seems to move back, lil terror.
Im still having a few bits of very dark almost black blood and almost past worrying now its just annoying.
Cant believe its hump day already, only 2 days until the weekend... bring it on! X

 

[jaspie]

Fit i hope you have a wonderful time at the wedding. The meanest people are often the most unhappy, pity them! You'll be in your lovely bubble with DH and you don't have to have anything to do with those horrible people.

Hopie have you seen a doctor about feeling depressed? They might be able to help you cope, you're under immense pressure at the moment. Adoption would be wonderful, 2 of my good friends adopted two sisters (5 and 3) a couple of years ago and they are just amazing! Such a happy family!

Bernie YAY your bump! So happy its coming along nicely! Hope everything is going well!

Blu eek that's so cute you're feeling your baby! 💛 And sounds like your bump will be here very soon!

It's still early I'm only 10dpo today so still got plenty of time. Had a couple of shadows and an evap type line but am second guessing thinking its dodgy test/evap/leftover hcg from the mc. I know it was ages ago but my hpt actually only went negative a couple of weeks ago and although I tested bfn I'm concerned that i didn't squint hard enough. All i can do though is keep testing and if/when a line comes up straight away or it gets darker I'll know it's real.

 

[bernie86]

Blu- thats awesome that you are already feeling movement! I started to feel little fish like movement at 14 weeks. I feel him now mostly when Im laying down reading at night. But when I sneeze he must be going crazy in there because it feels like I've got a bag of popcorn popping in there. I know I dont feel it all yet though because i can hear when he moves on the doppler, but i wont feel it all.

 

[bernie86]

Jaspie- Maybe test again friday and it should help make that line clearer. I highly doubt there would be any left from the MC im surprised it stayed as long as it did! There is def a good chance of that getting a little darker!!!

 

[jaspie]

Thanks Bernie! I tested again this evening after a 4 hr hold and I definitely have some faint lines and they came up within 10 mins, they're more noticeable than this morning...so I'm going to leave it 24hrs until next test now and hopefully will see progression!

 

[bernie86]

Thats great Jaspie!!!! I think that you are getting that rainbow baby!!!! cant wait to hear how they progress! i always heard that you are supposed to do first urine, but mine always came in stronger in the evening too

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

That's great about the lines Jaspie!! I agree with Bernie - I think it's your rainbow. Can't wait to hear about the progression.

Bernie and Blu, love that your both getting bumps and feeling some movement. Too sweet.

Hopie, whether you adopt or have a biological child any kid would be so blessed to have you as their mom. You are such a giving and caring person and you take amazing care of your parents.

Thanks for all your kind words about the wedding and my upcoming scan...you girls are the best. I listened to Baby last night and he or she has moved from the right to the left side of my belly button. I can't feel any movement yet but Baby seemed to be up to something...I kept finding the hb, then losing it, then it would get quieter, then louder suddenly.

 

[jaspie]

Love that you can find the heartbeat easily fit!

Hopie i second what fit said, you'll be a wonderful mum.

I'm 11 dpo and after a couple of days of super faint lines i got a proper bfp this evening! Eeeek! Got my frer to do tomorrow so fx but hopefully will be all good!

 

[Blu10]

I know ive posted a zilion times on your journal jaspie but cant not officially congratulate you on our family page haha. Im so so happy for you and OH! This will be your rainbow and its so amazing to have a bump buddy, wishing you a happy & healthy 9 months xc

 

[bernie86]

wow congrats jaspie!!!!!! i knew it would be a BFP! we have a lucky little family here! all on our first tries!!!!!

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

Big congrats Jaspie, I knew this was going to be your month!!!! So happy for you.

What a lucky family indeed...now we have November, December, January and February babies!! Fx you and DF can sneak in a quickie Hopie and we just might have a March baby too!

 

[jaspie]

Thanks girls! Super excited! Fx lines keep getting darker!

 

[Blu10]

Cant wait to see pics of all our babies 😊😊😊
What a beautiful day, fingers crossed it all works out for Hopie too now. Love all my B&B girlies 😙

 

[hopie2015]

Wow! CONGRATULATIONS, Jaspie!!!!!! Soo thrilled for you!!! I know Fit, Blu and Bernie will surely say they had such a good, strong feeling for you too this month!! Amazing- Dec, Jan, Feb and March babies! So awesome and soo excited for all of you!

Wow- just such great news all around.

Thank you all so much for the kind words of being a mom someday. I am completely drained, worn out. Needed to hear that. Thank you Fit- so sweet.. and yes, a quickie-- ha! what is that?!
Have been arguing with DF..Actually don't want to see his face right now, let alone anything else!

I think you're right Jasp- and I should see a doctor about feeling so depressed.
Sorry for being the depressive on the board!

Fit- your appt. is next week?
Blu and Bernie- hope you are feeling good and get some good r&r in this weekend!
Jaspie- over the moon for you!! I have to go find your journal on here..hopefully i can.. i just come to our old thread here.
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!

 

[Blu10]

Hopie please dont ever apologise, youre not depressive on the board at all were all in this to support each other from whatever crap comes out way, I just wish life would give you a break! I think a visit to your doctor would be good, it does sound as though you may be depressed and with lots of reasons to be. I wish there was something we could do to make this all seem better for you hun.
As for me things are pretty good, in also getting pretty fat, its fair to say Ive popped this week and had to go and get some maternity tops last night. Im still spotting on and off its nothing major and I suppose ive become a little complacent about it now after nearly 4 weeks.
How is everyone else?
Not long to go now fit? How exciting.
Im so so happy for Jaspie, nearly as happy as when I got my own BFP ha!
Who wouldve thought when we initially posted on this thread that all this wouldve happened a few months later x
