Nice picture! I realized who you were, but that's a smart idea showing your old avatar, this thread has so many posters, and I didn't start posting in it till later, so a lot of people I "know" by the avatar, not name, lol. I'm usually only on this thread or one other. The other I've been on since the beginning, at this point I feel like I know some of them better than people in real life!

Hi guys, hope you dont mind me joining. Im looking for some ttc buddies that understand what im going through. However my mc was back in April. Till now we have been trying but not really hard, im feeling now that im ready to get back into it completely.

Im praying for a rainbow as my bfp was after 6 failed rounds of ART and then a natural bfp so im positive that it can happen again.

My hcg was down to 0 within a week after d&c. And had a normal cycle immediately afterwards but since then they have been getting longer by a day or 2 every cycle.

I'm seeing my FS in Dec and want to start with femara to help o on.

My due date would have been 4 Jan 2014 so my time is running out quickly

Welcome and sorry for your loss! Anything is possible! I had two healthy boys without fertility help and then 3 miscarriages that were never explained. No problems with me or my DH. In May we were not trying at all. Taking a breather after my miscarriage in April, literally DTD one time in May and ended up pregnant with my miracle baby. I'm due in February with a healthy little girl after a year and a half of hell. Praying you get your rainbow soon!

Sorry to hear that tella I hope you get a bfp ASAP. We're hoping for a natural miracle bfp to for our last babe to be. Fingers crossed for us both!

thanks Nature is so strange but yet so amazing! Its wonderful that you managed to fall so quickly afterwards, i really wish i had the same case but i know i will get there eventually. Atleast i know i can get pregnant, its just a case of staying pregnant now. Fxd it happens quickly.

Thanks Kelly I really hope we get them soon, this waiting and wondering is horrible.

This past cycle was my 2nd on BComplex to lengthen my LP and it obviously worked as i went back to a 13 day LP which im happy with but on the other hand i was wondering if my AF wasnt just late and in fact i was pregnant, needless to say when AF showed up on Sunday morning i was still devastated.

 

[Kelly9]

Oh I don't want my natural bfp for another 11 months! So I'm good with waiting but if it happens sooner I'll manage.

Every period is hard when all you want is for her to stay away.

 

[Angel wings13]

Welcome tella ! I also had 2 perfectly normal pregnancies, followed by 4 consecutive losses. The first 3 losses were NTNP, but the last one we were planning on formally ttc in a.couple months, so the "surprise" was a very welcome one. That loss was the hardest by far. I'd already had 2 scans before things went south...
My insurance doesn't cover that type if testing, so I never found out the official cause. "random chromosomal abnormalities" was always the universal answer.

I hope you, Rahma, and ism all get your bfp's soon! nobody deserves to go thru what all of us here have b been thru at some point....
(excuse my typos, I use my phone and auto correct messes with me and I gave up fixing that a long time ago!

 

[Tella]

Thanks angel, yeah got the same answer from my fs. But i see it that it wouldn't have changed what happened, just praying it doesn't happen again.

 

[Angel wings13]

Ok. I'm REALLY tired of being pregnant. I really thought I'd meet my little man by now
He's getting big and strong and constantly kneeing me in the ribs. Last Wednesday at the doc my cervix was still closed AND high :/

 

[armymama2012]

I"m sorry Angel wings. i thought the same thing with Daniel but even though I had contractions for 2 days straight, I never progressed and had to force him out by C-section anyways.

 

[Angel wings13]

This guy is in an odd position. His butt under my left ribs, knees directly under/in my right ribs, head sorta aligned with my pelvic crest. Not engaged at all, which can delay labor. I've only gotten very mild (for me) contractions here and there and never for more than am hour. I go back tomorrow. If by some miracle I dilated at least 2 cm, my doc said he'd induce me. But otherwise I have until a week past due date. I'm so tired and miserable.

 

[armymama2012]

Sorry that you're miserable. Daniel dropped at 37 weeks but even at my due date he never fully engaged enough to make me dilate. I hope your little guy engages soon for your sake! Cant wait to see him! Want me to guess his weight.length, and day of arrival? If not its ok, just something I amuse myself with.

 

[Kelly9]

Angel he'll be here before you know it and once he's out there is no putting him back in! So try to enjoy the one on one time with your DH while you have it. I realize you likely don't want to hear my advice but there will be times a head when you wish you could just pop him back in your tummy

 

[armymama2012]

I've had about a week's worth of days when I was so tired I just wanted to put him back in! He is going through so much separation anxiety, teething, and just plain cranky.

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Totally agree with Kelly I think we all get the same though lol x

Yes! I love those guessing games!! Lol, I originally had December 6th for his birth, and since that passed I came up with the 13th....but, yesterday at doc I was 1cm and 0% effaced. Head still not engaged AT ALL. So doc has me scheduled for induction next wed at 5 pm, but hoping I don't have to wait that long! I've gone on walks the past 2 nights. Last night I walked 2 1/2 miles in 35 minutes - so it was a brisk walk. I had mild contractions the whole time. Last night when I came home and (TMI alert) has to pee, part of my plug came out, which got me excited, but nothing else happened
Now I'm sore from back to back excursions, lol. Feels likeI did a marathon. But I'll walk again tonight maybe just one mile this time

One on one time? What's that? Lol, jk. We have 2 boys already, but they are technically from my first marriage, though my 7 year old was still an infant when Jason and I began dating, and my ex is a total dead beat, so he considers and calls Jason "Daddy". My oldest is 12, so he doesn't call him "Dad", but does look up top him as a father figure. And Jason has treated them as his own from the beginning, but this baby will technically be his "first". This is also the first grandbaby for his family. Though my mother in law also treats our boys like real grand kids too. I'm a firm believer in "doesn't take a blood relationship" to make a "real" family. He will also be DH's first great grandchild, and she's old and in very poor health - my father in law says he thinks she's just hanging in long enough to see her first great grandchild. I think it's sweet, but it feels weird to be the provider of DH's family's "first" of everything, lol. Everyone calls constantly for updates! It does make me feel sorta special, but I also feel pressure - not from them on purpose, they're great - it's just how excited everyone is.
We finally decided on a name. We're sticking with Triston for the first name, and Edward will be his middle name. That's DH's middle name, his fathers first name, and was his grandfather's first name - his great grandmother cried (out of happiness) when we told her. But she lives in New Jersey, and probably won't get a chance physically meet Triston. She can't travel due to her health, and right now is just way too busy of a time right now for us to go there. She knitted Triston a beautiful blanket and sent it to us for the baby shower. She used to knit all the time, but for the last year she hadn't been able to. My father in law said she really worked hard on it, especially with how difficult it was for her.
Oh, back to the guessing - I'm now thinking my guess if the 13th probably isn't happening
either, but we'll see! As for weight I'm guessing 9 lbs 1 oz - he feels big! My other boys were just over 8 lbs. I hadn't guessed length...but I will now. I say 22". My other boys were 21" and 20 ". DH says 8 1/2 lbs, my mom says 9 1/2! Yikes!

 

[Kelly9]

Oh I didn't realize you had others!

My 1st DD born/died on Jan Friday the 13th, the number has such confusing significance for us now because we got our BFP with my 2nd DD on June friday the 13th as well and then...

My 2nd DD was born on the 13th of March so tomorrow marks 9 months for her. I wonder how many birthdays she'll end up with that are a friday.

He'll come when he's ready but don't count yourself out for tomorrow just yet.
