The BFP Before The 'Would Of Been' Due Date Thread - Any Joiners?

[armymama2012]

Congrats Harley! SMEP works again

GL at your scan tomorrow girlin

kate, I had a 3D scan done and my child hid too. I got to go back for another for free and I got way better pictures that time.

I had my 36 week appt yesterday, and the doctor checked my cervix and said I'm 100% engaged, starting to efface and "fingertip" dialated. It's just a waiting game now Too bad I could walk around like this for another 6 weeks but it's reassuring that my cervix is ready which means she'll induce me if need be.

I am giving you 19 days!

HArley yay!!!! Congrats!

Sam not long now

Hi mrskg, enjoy the nesting, use a heat back on your back after I find it does wonders.

 

[Starry Night]

It happened! SMEP worked! Hooray!

Congratulations!! Have a happy, healthy pregnancy!

What is SMEP?

AFM - finally saw my doctor today & got my first hcg done. I'll be getting them twice a week until I'm down to 0. Also will be waiting for my u/s referral to come in the mail. The doctor said he wants to wait until the u/s results come back to go over everything. That's fine with me. Still spotting anyways so know I'm not there yet.

AND I asked to be referred to a specialist to investigate my m/c's and he said he would once we sort out this one. He said even if I get pregnant again before that he wants me to see a specialist. Whoopee!!! The system finally works. I will make sure to remind him of this next time I see him.

Hey ladies I hope you are all doing ok? Just thought I'd let you all know Sophia was born this morning at 7.15am weighing 7lb 11oz will update properly when I get time as she's being a little monkey & has been constantly feeding & refusing to settle since her birth! xx

Yay, CONGRATS!!!

Sam - I had a twilight marathon the other day since the new movie comes out soon! Enjoy your relaxation time!!

I'm supposed to go with a friend Saturday to see it but it'll all depend on how I'm feeling after my surgery tomorrow. If not Saturday, then definitely Sunday. Can't wait! Love those movies!

Our crib has a beautiful design to it, but was HORRIBLE to be able to attach the bumpers too. I have a pic of Blake one day when I went to check on him--I'm pretty sure it was nap time and I found him with his crib bumper pulled away from the side and he was moving it back and forth--like he was peek a booing with it---hello safety hazard!! The new bedding is even worst as it has 4 separate pieces for the bumper--I liked Blakes bumper design with everything all together much better!!

AFM--here are some bump pics--I don't think I have been very good about sharing them--sorry!!

BEAUTIFUL bump pics!!!

Hello, may I join?

I was diagnosed with a mmc yesterday and just starting passing the baby today plus I know I'm going to want to have a bit of a break (don't want TTC stress over Christmas) so it's going to be a little while but I definitely would like to be pregnant again before my Lil Sweet Pea's due date of May 30th.

May is a sucky month for me. May 31st marks the anniversary of my first loss and now the dreaded "due date". It would be lovely to have a big, fat, juicy BFP before then.

Welcome starry night. So sorry to hear of your past loss and current one. Ugh, that stinks. I'm so sorry. Hang in there and hopefully you DO get preggers again before that May date!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

I've had a sudden loss of symptoms. My IC test line is no longer darker than the control. I think I'm going to have my fourth loss this year

oh no!!! i hope not girlin! Saying prayers for you!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Here's my half way bump pic 20 weeks! I hope no one minds, I don't usuallt share outside my journal but I'm just to excited to be half way!

oh my gosh, you're TINY! That's halfway?! Good for you. That would be me at 10 weeks! Geesh!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

After talking with DH this evening we decided we're going to go ahead and start "not, not trying" to TTC, but keep the stress off. We'd both love to be expecting by our girls due date of March 6th. Our baby girls were 22wks when they grew their wings and they can never be replaced in our hearts, but we can't wait to bring a healthy rainbow baby home. It's a strange feeling to be wanting a baby so badly, but grieving for the one's we lost. I feel guilty moving on and TTC, but know that the world won't be right for me again and I won't be able to full heal until we leave the hospital with full hearts and full arms.

TatorMom, so so sorry to hear of your losses! No words...i hope you fall pregnant again immediately!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

My HCG was up in the 60,000 mark when they discovered there was nothing in the sack, it dropped to 40,000 within 4 days, and within a couple weeks it was down to 1500, and now 78. Just need to see that magic 0!

God, I remember just waiting and praying for that 0 to get here. Hang in there!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

It happened! SMEP worked! Hooray!

Wow!!! Congrats!!!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Congrats Harley Quinn!! H&H 9 months x

Afm, I've got my viability scan tomorrow morning

good luck!!!

 

[samj732]

Ahh 19 days... I don't think I even want to wait that long I know that it's better for Iz if I do though. If she would just stop bouncing on my cervix...

Someone asked what SMEP was -- Sperm Meets Egg Plan. https://www.pregnancyloss.info/sperm_meets_egg_plan.htm

Thank you! Glad to hear you're going to see a specialist. Hope it all gets sorted out soon!

Don't worry, I had to look up SMEP too! As samj said, it stands for Sperm Meets Egg Plan. We BD'd our butts off this cycle! So glad it actually worked! Not sure I would have the energy to do it again. LOL

 

[Kelly9]

ttc I'm impressed at your catching up lol!

I'm bushed... finished baking christmas cookies, dealt with more of the moving house stuff and kid is finally in bed! Now I can rest and maybe feel my girl kick me, I've been moving so much I haven't had a second to even register if she has or not, but of course she's going now.

 

[Starry Night]

I haven't even started Christmas baking yet. I only have the tiny freezer about my fridge at the moment and it's half stuffed with meat someone donated to us (and it's good stuff too). I don't know why, but I'm intimidated by Christmas cookie recipes. Cookies just never turn out for me. I've read up all the tips about how to soften butter and rolling out dough and they turn out into these yucky-looking things that somehow still taste edible. But presentation is so key. I do want to be the traditional stay-at-home mom with her oodles of cookies ready for any social occasion but it's not working out. lol

My Christmas baking speciality is red velvet cake. I also want to try pumpkin pie.

 

[carebear1981]

I just learned recently what SMEP was as well. Just lots and lots of dtd. Sounds like a great plan

Congratz Harley!! So glad it worked for you!

Girlin - good luck at ur scan tomorrow!!

ttcbaby- hope things go well with ur surgery!! Soon enough you can TTC! Hope the wait doesn't feel too much longer!

Ummm... What else was going on... I'm on my phone and it doesn't let me check back without losing what I typed out...
Well I'm glad everyone is doing well with their little rainbows!! Nesting and relaxing!! I'm still saying Nov 23rd sam!! Lol just cuz I wanna win (though there's obv no prize)

Afm af is here. I'm happy it returned right on time after the chem last month. I found out today that my little brothers ex-girlfriend is preggers and it made me insanely jealous... She's like 10 yrs younger than me! I think I'm going to cuddle with my hot water bottle and yell at OH some for not wanting to TTC (j/k about the yelling part but he is going to hear it) bring it on AF!! Emotional wreckage me!! ARGH!!
