Hi girls just posting from my phone so sorry if I miss anyone.
Don't have any Internet connection for my pc till Tuesday

Yazoo I'm sorry you tested positive for the sticky blood but as the others have said, at least it's treatable, it's probably not much comfort at the moment though. I hope you are okay

Nikki, sorry you are having trouble sleeping, so am I, I find myself exhausted during the day and wide awake at night, so frustrating!

To all the girls awaiting ov...get your lurve on!!!

And for those in the tww

Edited to add: argh stupid phone wasn't finished yet!!!

For those In the 2ww good luck I can't wait to hear some good news!

And for all the pregnant ladies cooking rainbows...yay for the tiredness and sickness, it's no fun but reassuring!

Amanda, if you are finding it difficult to be on here, we understand, we can always keep in touch in other ways xxxxx

Hey Jo, was your cousin only tested for it after she lost her twins or was it before? How are you and little bump doing?

Andrea yes there is hope I think with the injections. It would mean that I would have to be seen by a high risk specialist and I would be induced early.

Thanks Amanda hun, I just feel like it is one think another another at the month. I was looking forward to ttc and after the appt I even questioned if I wanted to anymore. But I do. I want a little baby/babies badly and I pray that I get to take one home some say. Amanda instead of leaving us altogether maybe you could just visit us here and stay away from the other threads. YOur not as much exposed to it then. I love the fact that you sick. Its a great sign.

Thank you Hayley. I am sure the cheese won't do you any harm. As you said the cooking would kill off any bacteria.

Natalie the alcohol won't do any harm at all. Hope you get your BFP this month.

Hi Nikki- well I have to go back for the next result in 8 weeks but she said in the meantime if I get pregnant to ring the EPU and request a 7 week scan and once they see that baby is in the right place with a heartbeat I will be started on Heparin injections that day. I am also taking aspirin now everyday. Now I am thinking that maybe it is better if the result comes back positive next time because if it comes back negative I will be worried about the one positive result and will be a nervous wreck without treatment. However if its positive at least I am being treated and seeing a high risk doctor. I hope you get your BFP this month hun.

Thank you Mhairi- I hope you and bubs are doing good.

Kelly how are you? And Andrea? Are you in the 2ww now? I hope you got lots of BDing in.

Hi Friends!!!

Yazoo, I'm terribly sorry you got slammed with that hon'... wish you didn't have to battle with that, BUT maybe.... maybe now, they will stay on top of your belly care... Still wish you didn't have this junk I'm sorry sweetie...

Hello all my preggo friends How is everyone feeling today?? Getting plenty of rest and eating tons of bad stuff...I recommend lots of chocolate!!!!!

Amanda, I completely understand... That is totally your call and just know, we'll always be here either way.. Heck, you can't get rid of me THAT easy tho, I can and will facebook stalk you!! Muhahahahaha (that was my evil laugh)

Mhairi... I think I would have an immediate heart attack going that long without the internet to your PC... You know what's funny, I could go for a long time on any other website,... But this site.... Heck, No way I could stay away! Miss you all too dang much!

Andrea... My Love... It's SUNDAY!! Girl, you better be doing the BABY DANCE all dang day LOL!!! Hahaha, yep! I remembered! Woot Woot Woot Woot

Nikki... I think I am gonna TRY really really really hard to follow your lead this month.... I am gonna try NOT to test til AF doesn't show.... Lord, that is gonna be a blessed miracle.. I'll be having the shakes... LOL But I HATE hate hate seeing a big ugly NO .. So, I'm gonna stay away from the stores and not buy any tests .... So, December 1st is when AF is due....When is your's hon??

Jojo .... Hayley ... Keep those baby updates coming!!! Yay to being sick, tired and icky!!

Nat.... Chin up sweetie....Keep us posted and please don't beat yourself up over a few sips... Promise ...

Been busy today... We have ordered new carpet and trying to move out all the furniture, so might not be back til tomorrow.. but I'll be back

 

[Nikki_d72]

Hey Kelly, I'm not entirely sure this month as I seem to have Ov'd early - 14DPO is the 26th, but that is only CD26, so sometime between then and the 30th (which would be CD30, the longest cycle I've had). By all accounts I should be due around the 26th-28th, if not, then I've probably missed O day anyway. We shall see, it's going to be a long and confusing month...We're pretty close together, huh? Here's hoping, it would be awesome to be bump-buddies and share the madness!

Have fun with the new carpet, you may have to christen it haha.

 

[jojo23]

Tanya hun she was tested after she lost the twins as it was a late loss like ours and they discovered she had the disorder so when she felt like ttc again she was on medication until she fell pregnant and then on baby aspirin throughout her pregnancy as well as other monitering! her little man is now 4 months and an absolute buster lol she had a great pregnancy with him so dont loose hope hun!! she had a 2 early miscarriages before the twins also but they wouldnt test her until the 3rd loss xxxxxxxxxxxx


amanda i totally understand how you feel its so scary in the other forums its just like we have our own little bubble here and never wanna leave haha i barely look at the other forums now as i know all of you are here for any advice i need not just baby/preg stuff xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[yazoo]

Thanks Joelene, I'm glad she has her little boy now after going through so much heartache. It gives me hope & I really hope that I can have a "normal" pregnancy again without bleeding, clots etc. *sigh*

Hows u & little bubs doing? Good I hope.

Thank you Kam. How are you? Christen that carpet yet? lol

 

[jennijunni]

I will be maybe joining you ladies soon. I just had my second D&E in 5 months, and another 2nd trimester loss. I have had 4 healthy pregnancies, so I know I can carry a child, I just could not carry those two. I wonder if I can go through this again, and in my heart I know I can, I dont want to, but I can. We are having a bunch of tests done in 2 weeks, to see if there is anything wrong with me, because there was nothing wrong with the babies. So I am hoping by the end of December that all will be a go, and I hope we catch the egg quickly this time. We tend to get pregnant rather quickly, and we are blessed in that way. So right now I am in limbo, I am scared, and nervous, and excited, and I want and need a healthy pregnancy, to trust my body again. GL to you all.

Welcome JenniJunni!!

All I can say is WOW.. You are remarkably strong...Bless your heart! I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, can't wait for you to hurry and get all your answers so back to baby makin' you go

No girls, I haven't christened the new carpet yet... We are actually still trying to empty out the furniture.. YUCK! It's like moving all over again, having to box things up and find another room to shove it in LOL Carpet should be completely done by Tuesday, yea two days before we have a house full of people eating.... LOL! Yep, We're some smart cookies HE planned that LOL!!

The obsessing hasn't hit me YET... I'm kind of shocked, I just KNEW that once I was 1dpo I'd be marking calendars, charting symptoms... All the stuff I did last month but I'm not YET, guess it's still a bit early still.... No symptoms to report tho either

I completely agree with you girls about joining other sections on this forum... To be honest, last month when we decided to start ttc, I jumped over there as well as here BUT it just isn't home... Doesn't feel right.... AND I was never really welcomed, like I was here.. Not very nice over there LOL ... So, just so y'all know... That WHEN I get my rainbow, my butt will be staying put as well Yep... we are all here for each other for everything.... Not just baby & bump questions and support.... Friends

Oooo Nikki! We are super close... That would be amazing if we got to be bump buddies!! FX'd!!!

Hope everyone is doing well today.....

Ok, I know this is for TTC, but it's only been 3 weeks since we lost Mateo and my doctor told us to wait 6 weeks to have sex and not to try to get pregnant until after my second period. OH has been super concerned about waiting the 6 weeks because he doesn't want me to get sick or hurt (my ob/gyn said my cervix was closed), but I've been DYING over here so last night I finally convinced him to participate in a little play time (no sex though). And it was amazing. I just had to tell someone!!!

Thanks for all your support ladies, I am so happy for all of you rainbow makers and can't wait until we can make our own!

Hahaha lol glad you had a little fun with hubby, you deserve it. It's a good way of staying close too, as losing a child can sometimes build walls.
We are here for you on every step of your journey from the loss of Mateo to hopefully holding his little rainbow brother or sister in your arms. I think we have turned this thread into a free-for-all chat anyway so boast away! xxxx

 

[collie_crazy]

Thank you for your support girls I think I am just being silly but its hard to see loss everywhere when I'm trying so hard to cling to hope...

But I have my first scan a week tomorrow and I got my letter today for my 12 week scan and first antenatal appointment which will be 22nd December (I'll actually only be 11 weeks by then) so that will be nice if everything goes ok to be able to tell people at Christmas... But then I have been thinking about it and I'm not sure whether I will tell at Christmas or wait until after the 1st Jan which would have been Emilys due date. I am scared to tell people before the due date incase she gets 'forgotten' about amongst all the excited baby talk

Oh and I thought you girls would be excited to know that one of my first 'baby buys' was travel sickness bags because last time I got caught out a few times whilst out in the car and had to pull over and throw up on the pavement (NOT NICE!) and well lets just say I had to use my first one today whilst stuck in traffic! Thanks hormones

Lots of love and to all

I'm not having the best of days either...didn't sleep well last night, have been feeling so sick yet so hungry today. And I was sitting in the office, and one of my colleagues was discussing her pregnancy with another, right in front of me. I don't grudge anyone being happy about their pregnancy, but, I felt so uncomfortable and I couldn't get away . today it's five months since I lost the girls I think maybe I was just being over sensitive, but, I thought they could have been a bit more considerate. I suppose I should just be more used to it by now, it's like some people think you should forget about them.

Lol for the prodding of the boobies, not had that problem yet this time, but I do remember doing it last time! Xx

 

[jojo23]

awe i know hun its so hard, i feel like i cant tell anyone yet cause i just cant get excited about it myself! im sorry your not sleeping hun i think everything seems so much worse when your tired....it must be a very hard day for you today(not that any day is easy) but im sending you all my love and thoughts and i know your angels are watching over their amazing mummy every day!!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[MummyStobe]

I've been having a paranoid day today too. Must've been to the bathroom to check I wasn't bleeding at least 10 times - daft because it only reassures me for half an hour and then I'm panicking about it again.

Amanda I'm pleased to hear you've got your scan dates through. I also thought I was going to have to pull over to be sick today, i've had constant nausea for the past couple of days. I promised I won't moan about it because I know it's a good sign but it's still not a nice feeling.

Jojo I've been prodding my boobs too! sensitive nipples were the first sign of pregnancy last time but they're taking their time this time around, only just starting to notice them now!

Mhairi I hope you're not overdoing things with your house move. Get plenty of rest and sleep when you need it.

Hope everyone else is well - sorry not gone back past the current page as on my phone. Night all xx
