PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

[jenny25]

I'm not sure we are in abit of a debate here because of our history this is our rainbow when I had aarron I had a c section I got postnatal depression because I didn't feel connected with him so I said to Paul I want to build a bond even if it's just us and you guys that know and everyone will know the day of the birth but Paul said he doesn't know if he wants to find out x

morning ladies! lovely pics!

Heart happy 16 weeks, Pip happy 24 weeks (wow!) and happy 5 weeks to me!! (baby steps, baby steps lol!!)

Fili lovely introductions and fabulous memory hope you are having a fab day in London - sounds like a great day out and probably just what you need!

Lambs - what a lovely inspirational story, i have read some of your journal and couldnt be happier for you right now!

Love all the success stories on this thread!

Pups - you said your EPU had recently introduced same policy as mine, how did you go about getting early scans?

im still annoyed about the early scan and i could lie and say ive had bleeding or pain but i keep thinking if i do that it will jinx it as so far its going well!! im getting the bloods done next week twice and the following week also so that will help reassure me if they are going in the right direction. then if i make it past 8 weeks (furthest milestone to date) i will probably pay for an early scan. tests are still dark so im feeling ok at the moment, FRER was much darker than the control line this morning and i will do a digi on sunday praying for a 3+!!!

Bumpy i went to see GP who wrote a referral letter basically lying saying i'd had pain and she was worried about possible ectopic. I didn't lie to her because i had no idea they'd stopped scanning RPL.

my DH is 11yrs older than me! Can you tell? Lol

Staying team yellow too

I feel quite lost... OH has gone out to his mums and took Izzy so i can have the afternoon to myself... except i feel very very lost and on edge...
Iv got a whole evening without her tomrrow because were going out to a ice hockey game.

 

[jenny25]

Hun that's normal I was like tht with aarron he was my first rainbow baby and I was very protective it does get easier hun xxx what hockey team do you watch ? I also watch hockey xx

Had a call from the garage, £700 to fix car. My grandparents can't afford it all so we'll have to pay £200 today and arrange to pay them back asap. Don't know how we're gonna manage

Tracie - I felt the same way the first time without Olivia - and to this day, she is only allowed to stay with DH's mom! I am so lucky to have her as an inlaw, she took me right on in as her on and she sticks to Olivia's schedule without a fuss - I had to go to Louisiana a few weeks ago for my grandmothers funeral (she lived here in GA but wanted to be buried there) and I had to leave Olivia for 3 days!!! I didn't even worry about her, I am confident that she is in the best hands! Dh's step-dad never had kids, so to him having Olivia is just the most amazing thing, he stops by the house like once a day to see her lol!!! They also spoil her and this child will NEVER want for anything if we let them have their way! It gets easier as time goes on, you slowly develop trust and confindence and then one day you'll be able to leave her for a weekend and not even worry b/c you know that she is in good hands! It takes time and from what I understand that's not just for PAL girls either, my aunt has a 6 year old and he has never stayed the night anywhere without one of his parents!!

How is everyone this morning? I'm crappy, Olivia hasn't slept good in 2 nights and I am sooo sleepy!

Puppy that sucks you would be cheaper getting a run around hun xz

Ooo my home team is the brae head pirates and braehead clan but I'm living in Essex now so I watch Romford raiders oooo fellow hockey girl love it xx

 

[3xscharmer]

Puppy - so sorry about your car hon, I'm sure it will work out somehow...just when you least expect it something will come through!!

 

[puppycat]

My plan for next week is to call the finance company and find out how much is left to pay on it and if they'll buy it back. If not i'll see if i can sell it and how much we'd get. If that corresponds to the hp value it's gone.

were playing the steelers ( hisssss booooo ) lol should be a cracking match

Happy V Day Pip!!!

Happy 5 weeks Bumpy! I like the idea of paying privately for an 8 week scan if you can't get in earlier. I paid for private scans for a while. My other doctor would have done them for free, but I was so traumatized by getting bad news there all the time I went somewhere else. It was the best money I ever spent.

Puppy, that really sucks about the car. Sounds like you have a plan in mind. I hope they buy it back from you.

Tracie try as best you can to enjoy a little time to yourself. She'll be back before you know it and you can have massive snuggles.

Davies, I'm jealous of all of your leave! You lucky girl. I'm definitely finding out the gender. My husband kind of wants a surprise but I don't think I'll be able to bond with this baby properly without knowing.

Good morning to everyone else! Or afternoon as the case may be for some of you. Can't wait for Hopefuls twinny pics.

Think I'm getting sick again. Sore throat and stuffy nose. Luckily I'm working from home today.

[heart tree]

Thanks for sharing! Baby A's arm looks like she's in the middle of doing an Olympic back stroke. Michael Phelps, watch out!

Gorgeous wedding pic.

Now I feel satisfied! LOL!

your pretty ( jealous! )

happy 5 weeks bumpy! it goes slow at first and then just gets so fast, the weeks start to fly by. with iui cycles, early scans are typical to rule out ectopic - i think maybe you could ask for a scan for the reason of ruling that out?

happy 16 weeks heart! i coughed a few times last night, dry coughs, and the night before had a completely stuffy nose on one side, but then I wake up fine. hoping you don't get sick! i'm working from home today too.

happy 24 weeks pip! (again, your weeks go by faster for some reason? every time I turn around he's a week older!!!

tracie- i can't imagine how i will feel the first time i am by myself, probably about as nervous as ever. i'm sure it gets better each time but i feel for ya.

davies - wow you are going on leave early! i wish i was on leave now, wouldn't that be great? i'm only planning for 2-3 months (i'm sure it will be more like 3). i think it's cool to not find out gender but i would never do it (just because i'm too much of a control freak).

puppy - really sucks about the car, too bad you don't know someone personally who could fix it (if you were here, I know of someone...)

hi 3x and jen! that's ok about the prog, just take it next time....

 

[jenny25]
