Mama Bears TTC a rainbow - join us :)-- (69 ladies so far)-(29 BFP's!)

[Angelbaby_01]

Your time will come hun. I know it will xxx

In a way it seems easier to get the bfp than keeping the shbfp if you know what I mean.

 

[Squig34]

Yes you are right Angel. I'm all right thanks.

Confuzion - so, so sorry to hear this has happened to you again. Will you try to get RMC testing now?

 

[confuzion]

Squig - I've had it done after my second MMC. All the tests came back normal. No thyroid issues. No blood clotting issues. No autoimmune issues. My uterus shape is fine. My ovaries are good.

The only thing we haven't done is karyotyping. And given that even if that is the issue--there's nothing they can do for us. And insurance probably wouldn't cover it. I don't see a point.

 

[jmandrews]

Aw confuzion I'm so sorry. My heart breaks. Wish I could give you a big hug. Treat yourself to something nice. I went and had my hair done. It felt great. Hoping you can move on quickly and get your sticky bean.

 

[jmandrews]

Yesterday and today the bleeding seems to have lightened up a lot. Praying it continues. So ready for next month so that DH and I can start TTC again. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

 

[Angelbaby_01]

Jmandrews I am glad that the bleeding is lighter and hope it will stop soon. Xx

Afm - me and DD had an afternoon nap and then I took her out for a drive. We had cabin fever and the house is way too quiet without hubby. We are at mil's, but she works on weekends and will only be home tonight.

I found this nice little restaurant that is on top of a hill and looks down on vineyards. So so pretty

 

[mapha2]

Ohh, I'm so sorry confuzion, I hope yo get your shbfp soon. Hugs hun

 

[Conina]

Hi all - can I join you? I've seen some of you on the March testing board.

How is everyone?

 

[Conina]

JMAndrews our LOs are only a few days apart!

 

[kazine]

I'm so sorry confuzion Have you tried taking baby aspirin? I've heard it can work for people who haven't even had a diagnosis of blood clotting.

 

[Angelbaby_01]

Hi conina, nice to see you here

 

[confuzion]

EDIT: double post

 

[confuzion]

JM - FX for you hon. Looks like we may both be ready to try again soon. Hopefully the next one will be quick and STICKY.

conina, welcome to our mama bear family . Where are you in your cycle?

I'm so sorry confuzion Have you tried taking baby aspirin? I've heard it can work for people who haven't even had a diagnosis of blood clotting.

I don't think I need baby aspirin. Especially since before this very early loss, my pregnancy was actually going really well. If my baby girl didn't have a chromosomal issue, I think my body was fully capable of carrying to term. Though I did take some natural things to thin my blood. Garlic. Cayenne. Fish oils. Just in case. I'm a little weary of taking baby aspirin when there's not a need for it. Afraid it will do harm.

 

[3Minions]

Aww Confuzion.
Hugs.

Aw oh my gosh they are! So cool! Everlee was born July 20th. when was your son? Here's a pic of her.

 

[Squig34]

JM - what a cute little girl! Hope your bleeding finishes soon; glad its lightening up.

Hi Conina - another NI lady I see! (I keep a special eye out )

Confuzion - I remember you saying you were trying to naturally thin your blood. I've been told several things about aspirin and early losses (7/8 weeks) but you carried one until 12 weeks so I'm not sure if the thing I'm about to say is relevant, but apparently losses up to 7/8 weeks can be an implantation/clotting issue and so aspirin can help. One RMC told me not to take aspirin unless tests showed the need for it as a recent study shows it could be harmful if you don't need it; another told me that there are quite a number of blood clotting tests and one in particular that we can't get in NI (TEG), so even if the other blood clotting tests show up clear, it's a good idea to take 150mg of aspiring just in case, and it will do no harm. So, no idea which one is right. I've taken steps to get further opinions, will keep everyone updated on what the other two consultants I speak to have to say (though it will probably be a little while before I have all the info gathered)!

 

[Conina]

Hi ladies :wave: and thanks for the welcome!

Confuzion af is just leaving. I've had a couple of screwy cycles since my mc but hopefully this onewill be more normal and I'll be o-ing around cd17.

Jmandrews-Conor was 27 July so they're exactly a week apart!

Squig - where are you? I'm in Belfast

 

[Squig34]

Conina - I'm in Belfast too

AFM, I think perhaps I had a CP this month. I got a faint line the day before AF (DH saw it too, it wasn't just me using my special line eye powers!) and the next morning, I saw squinters on two separate tests with two separate samples, but they didn't hang around once dry. AF came bang on time, but is (putting it delicately) somewhat heavier than usual. I'm not completely sure if I'm right, but something happened! However, my cycle clearly isn't delayed and I'm not sure if there is anything to be upset about given the lines I've described, so I've chosen not to be. I'm not counting it either because of the uncertainty, just mentioning it really.

 

[Leinzlove]

Squig: I'm sorry hun! I hope this brand new cycle is the one.

C: I agree with the baby aspirin. I don't like taking things that are considered non safe in pregnancy. Even though it is a small amount and unlikely to hurt the baby.

I would definitely write off your early loss. Something just didn't go right and it does happen. There is nothing wrong with you. You are meant to have the Christmas baby...

AFM: I'm pregnant! It's early yet, but this is the most hopeful and positive I've been able to be in the TTC #3 journey. EDD: November 22, just 3 days after my 10th wedding anniversary. I will not take a single day of this pregnancy for granted.

 

[Squig34]

Big FX for you Leinz!
