Hi everyone!
we're actually trying to conceive after giving birth to our first son Jackson Jeffrey at 22wks gestation October 22, 2009.
There are several factors...someone in who's car we were riding put the breaks on suddenly on a state to state trip and I lost my mucus plug an hour later. Shortly after, I was looked at but the nurse practitioner at the perinatal center said everything was alright. Had she looked closer and listened she would have SEEN the mucus plug was gone and the Dr. could have had time to put a suppository in and cerclaged the cervix.
I was found 3cm dialated a month later and they gave me two options. Stay in the hospital with my legs up (they couldn't do anything until the morning) or go home. We chose home because the staff gave us no hope and would do nothing.
He was born, we held him and let him go.
I'm in here because as we ttc I'm so caught up with guilt, frustration and even though we're trying again for a pregnancy...I miss my Jackson.
I am 36 y/o and was told we'd NEVER conceive and Jackson was our delightful miraculous surprise without fertility treatment of any kind.
We have decided to try again using fertility drugs and My last Clomid pill was today. I have sonograms scheduled for Friday and Monday so far and I "could" possibly have an IUI this weekend sometime.
Bitter sweet of it all is my birthday is May 9th. It happens to fall on mothers day.
It would be really nice to conceive a child on Mothers day knowing the sadness we've been through. We haven't even put his stone down yet.
I would REALLY appreciate some input from those who've been through this. I am on edge and scared. I REALLY want another child and praying God would provide. Please give me some tips on what you did to find JOY in the process again.
I'm told I'll be on progesterone in oil upon conception then shortly after I'll be cerclaged and I'm guessing on full bed rest. Has anyone else been through this? What are you going through? How should I prepare?
Thank You for your time.
