Ah okay so posting on the thread subscribes you So anyways I'm almost seventeen weeks out from D&C. Had first negative HCG in May 5th. Dr is recommending 6 months of negatives. Also have been seen by a reproductive specialist here in Milwaukee she also says six months but that if I were older she would tell me not to wait (I'm 30). I emailed Dr. Goldstein in Boston last week he said after three weekly 0's and three monthlies we're good to try again. Anyone not wait thay long? My cycles are back and I'll be ovulating in a few days. Getting antsy and not wanting to wait. My HCGs went from 5 on May 5th, 3 on May 19th and <2 as of June 17th.

Sorry you've had to go through this
I waited 3 months then fell pregnant but was a chemical, bfn the next month then fell pregnant month after with my rainbow who is now 5 months
I think your body will know when it is ready as mine did! Good luck!!! ;-D

As for us.....we are well!! Booked into sleep school (a different place to the last thing we did) on the 17th so fingers crossed we get some better sleeping habits out of that!

We are starting swimming lessons on the 22nd which I'm really excited about, Layla seems to love the water so hoping she will love that!

Hi Jamiencole,
Sorry you had to join us. I got pregnant with my rainbow now 2.5yrs after 2 month of negative following my first 2 zero tests weekly. I think it worked out 4-5 months following my d&c. I think my doc wanted another monthly zero but i found i was super fertile after and got pregnant not trying (after 18 months to get pregnant with the pmp).
A lot depends on how quickly you got negative results. 3 months of negative seems consistent with a lot of stories i have heard following pmp and no chemo.

Hi everyone, sorry we havent been on here much lately. Sick kiddies have kept me busy. Only 3 weeks until tonsils are out now. Hopefully this will be our last lot of tonsilitis.
Raph has been walking for about a month now so flat out. He just loves walking around all day. Hoping he starts to sleep soon.

Dano how is your new little boy going?

Jess i hope the new sleep school helps. As do swimming lessons. I have heard people say active kids tend to sleep better doing swimming lessons. I hope she loves it!

Hows everyone?
Xx

 

[Jbaby90]

I've heard once bubs become more active (crawling and walking) they may sleep better lol I know not always the case but fingers crossed! Never heard of it for swimming though but hopefully :-D
Hope the sickness clears away soon!!

 

[Mummy2Corban]

Becky I'm sorry your babies have been poorly! Hoping its your last bought too! Well done raph.... Iya is pretty much crawling! Does raph still feed at night? Iya isn't sleeping through yet either.

Jess I hope this sleep thing helps! Some bubbas are just better at it than others. I'm defo waiting till Iya sleeps through before we try for no.4!!!!

Xxx

Ha ha Laura, sounds so much like me... wont be trying for no 3 or even having a chance to until Raph sleeps through... i saw an article (ill see if i can attach it) that its all the fault of the father's genes and bubs not wanting a younger sibling. Quite funny really...

Yes Raph is still having an overnight feed. 4 feeds all up. 3 a day plus one at night. Hes 10.5months, so im surprised he still wants one overnight as he eats so much... has to be comfort!

Go Iya! Awesome she is crawling! She will be chasing her older sister and brother in no time!

I guess the sleeping thing is like the moving, crawling and walking thing... some babies just at slower at it!

 

[jacky b]

I found this funny...

Hi jamienicole sorry ypur here. I had a cmp which suprised my dr cause i didnt have many symptoms of it, in fact i think hcg was lower for a normal pregnancy and usually its super high so it went down itsefl in less the 6 weeks. My dr convinced me to take 1 depo shot (wanted me to for a year) but honestly that 1 depo shot lasted a year. I started trying or wanting in 5-6 months but it was almost a year from my d&c. In fact the day i was hoing to have the baby my dad past and the next preg my dr wanted to deliver the day before (estimated) that date exactly a year later. ( but, my dr jnows better too and we always go around 36-38 weeks) again sorry.

Afm i am now 20.5 weeks have ob apt today. And not working anymore except a half hour a week to do some office work. (mailing out coupons to costumers that call in and complain.) starting to miss it a little but enjoying it too.

[Mummy2Corban]

Haha! Becky! I love that..... So true for Iya I think..... Defo no new baby for a while. We got Iya into a bit of a night routine and managed to get her in with indie but she got I think the hot weather from last week, her heat rash and two front teeth put it all out the window.... Feeling kinda like we are back at the beginning.... She's back in our room in the hammock.... Waking loads again and screaming. Her day time naps are great so it's frustrating! She has 3 meals a day I feed her about 5 times in the day and 2 times at night. She's also only just started drinking juice.... Been a battle to get her to take a bottle. I want to night wean her but i dunno if it will make it worse?!

Does marcy love it that Raph is walking? Love it when they start walking! So cute.

Vicki happy 20 weeks! Half way!!!! Eek!

Xxx

 

[ihave5boys]

My half way is 18-19 weeks. Went to ib today, measuring 18 weeks. Told dr i was happy with that, he wasnt but said we will just keep an eye on baby measuments, i said well you did say that last time too. Last u.s. Baby was measuring right on. And i said better then measuring 10+ weeks ahead like i did with alana. Plus i have time to catch up.., but next u.s, is the 30th about every 6 weeks for now.

[Mummy2Corban]

Hope all is well with bump Vicki. With Corban he was my biggest bump and smallest baby and Iya was my smallest bump but biggest baby. What are your plans for delivery this time round? Have you decided on names?

Xx

 

[jacky b]

Yay over half way! Hope it goes smoothly for the rest. Good luck for your next us.

It totally sucks Laura! Its so hard when you feel like you go forward with their sleeping and then back to square one. I hope we all get it sorted soon!
Hope the teeth and heat stop causing problems for you hun!

Jess how did swimming lessons go?

 

[Jbaby90]

Haven't started yet, the new term doesn't start until the 22nd because it's school holidays here at the moment so it starts back up after that

The last 2 night I've been up every hour with Layla.....I swear my eyes are hanging out of my head!! 7 sleeps til sleep school and counting

I shouldn't whinge too much tho she is a blessing and such a funny little girl. She blows raspberries at us now and smiles so much. She really is a joy in our lives
I have a serious addiction to buying her clothes lol

 

[ihave5boys]

We will do a repeat c section had 3 alreadt do to babies size and we learned i cant deliver 8 lb babys or 9lbers. But hoping this one is smaller but i dont have a big chance if that happening. Dr asked what i been thinking for a coming out party i said if it was up to me and not him or baby i would like to wait till 37-38 weeks. Also name for little man is Liam richard. Middle name was my dads name. We are keeping it a secret. I did warn family that my dads middle or first name would be in his name somewhere so it wont be a shock.

Oh and i am 21 weeks today....

 

[Jbaby90]

Love the name, beautiful idea using your Dad's name!

 

[Mummy2Corban]

Love the name too. Me and chris both lost our dads and both there names were john so Corban is Corban john after them both. So in theory if you went at 37 weeks you could possibly only 16 weeks left! Exciting!!!!!
Xxx

 

[Mummy2Corban]

Becky I'm now trying shorter naps during the day.... Going to see if the shorter naps and crawling tire her out enough to sleep! Got all crossed! Hehe!!! We wil get there!

Jess it is so so hard! Awful being tired but I know there not doing it out of spite. There just mini.... Even when I think I can't take much more I just look at those faces!!! I'm so emotional at the moment cause I'm tired!! Take it your not thinking about baby no.2 yet?! Hehe xxx

 

[ihave5boys]

Yes my goal would be till 38 weeks cause 37 is day before halloween and dh has plans that he doesnt want ruined. But we will do what we can.

Vicki

 

[jacky b]

Good luck Vicki. Lovely name!

So sorry you have been up so much Jess. Its hard work when you have had no sleep and have to function the next day. We tend to get out. Somehow it seems easier to be out and tired than at home. I find at home im willing time to pass until sleep time so i can have a rest. But like you said, they are such beautiful blessings and we wouldn't change them at all! Good luck at sleep school. I hope you have success.

Laura hopefully she gets tired and sleep for you! She got one full nights sleep but the last few have been back to normal. My little man is sick now too so im not holding on to sleeping. So hopefully once healthy he will sleep from being worn out running everywhere!

 

[Jbaby90]

OMG last night was horrendous!!!

You are so right though......during the night I was crying and saying I can't do this anymore then we get up this morning and she smiles at me and I know I can do it all over again just because I love her so much

Definitely not thinking of number 2 at this stage lol at this rate I'm thinking I'll prob ttc when she is about 3!
