Hi Everyone,

My name is Avril and I've just stalked this thread it is such a beautiful thread to read.....

I lost my little girl 7 weeks ago due to pprom and I'm due to see my consultant in 2 weeks! I have 2 boys one 6 and one 19 months. I'm so scared about going to get my results but they did see to think I had an infection. Every day my Emily shaped hole in my heart aches and I'm so worried they might tell me it's because she was a girl I was sooo excited to have a girl,I love my boys with all my heart but I just felt it would be lovely to have a little sister for them and a daughter for us.

We've decided we will try again but I'm giving my body and emotions time to heal and will leave it till next year.

Anyway what I wanted to say is its so beautiful to read about people's rain ow babies and I wish all if you a h & h 9 months and to all of us trying or waiting I send you a big massive hug and tons and tons of dust!!! Xxxxxxx

Thank you. Life is so cruel. It's been nearly a week now and I am still an emotional wreck, but only when I am on my own, I need to be strong in front of the kids as we don't want them to know.

My heart is broken.

Hi Tayla,

Im Nicole. I am 25 years old, and has just recently said goodbye to my angel baby on September 12th, 2012, on their 18 weeks birthday. Every day is a new struggle so far, and I am unsure of how to move on with my life since this.

I completly understand the rollercoaster feeling. I am like that every minuate of the day. If it wernt for my son Landon (11months) I would not even have the encouragement to get myself out of bed.

welcome to our thread and sorry for your loss. i lost my LO at 13 weeks in jan and lost my rainbow last week at 9 weeks.

i know exactly how you feel. i felt the same after my loss in Jan, but the lovely ladies here helped me through, to the point where life had meaning again and i was happy, but that was all taken away again last week.

I now have 3 angels.

i have an appointment next week at the recurrent miscarraige clinic again. This is where i was last week when i had the bad news.

it was arranged fri 2 nov as they want me to see professor quemby again who i saw in may, she is one of the country`s leading experts in recurrent miscarriage.

We are away on fri 2 nov and as she is only there once a month it would have been december. However the lady that runs ths clinic who gave us the bad news last week, has fitted my in next friday morning at 8.15am, so we can see the professor again.

At least by seeing her and chatting things through, we can see if she has any other ideas of what to do next. She did some tests in may and there was nothing untoward there.

They took some of the tissue this time for testing, but that will take 3-4 months to come back and that is looking for chromosonal problems. if it is that then it is one of those things.

if it isnt that then they need to look for something else, obviously my age wont be helping.

My acupuncturist sees to think it is to do with my blood and when i see him for my first appointment next week he is going to look at increasing the blood flow to the womb.

i just want my first period to start now as soon as possible so we can get on with it.

After first D & C 3 years ago my Af was 5 weeks and 1 day. After the birth of my LO in Jan it was 6 weeks and 1 day.

DH and i still havent spoken about trying again, but i have to do it as soon as possible because i will go crazy if he makes we wait like he did for 4 months at the beginning of the year. 4 wasted months, then 4 months of trying. 8 months later back to square 1. Cant afford to waste that much time anymore.

Why, why, why.

Hi Nicole - i'm so sorry for your loss - i lost my angel boy at 18 weeks in March, it was the worst and most traumatic experience of my life but with my family and the lovely ladies here I got thru it.
The best advice I heard was to just take things one day at a time.

Oh Lisa its a horrible thing - and there are sooo many things that have to go right for a pregnancy to be able to progress - there may be no reason they can find for your last loss and i know its hard to accept as just one of those things but at least then there is no reason for you not to try again. You and your hubby need to sit down and talk thru both yr feelings regarding this last loss and whether you both want to try again. We must remember that its hard for the men as well. hun and i'm sure it will all work out for you when the time is right xXx

Hi, hope you are well.

We actually sat down last night and had a long chat and we a going to try again.

We are at the hospital again next Friday, so we will have a chat with a miscarriage specialist. I also have my first acupuncture on Wednesday.

Just hoping all works out.

How's it going for you?

 

[yellowyamyam]

Lisa - I'm sorry to read about your loss.

Hi everyone,

I know ... I've been MIA. Not much happened on my side. Since my 2nd MC on 20 May 2012, I have yet to get a menstrual cycle. In a way, it is a blessing because I don't have to think about TTC. I don't know. I have been on denial and monotonic-living (if that makes sense). But I am happy so this is how I want to live for now.

I have a doc's appointment on Tuesday to get a 2nd opinion on me having TAC (transabdominal cerclage). I have been waiting for this appointment since about 2 months ago. Things are really moving slowly ...

So that is that. Dec is coming really soon and it just hit me that I have yet to plan what to do on 19 Dec - anniversary of my 1st MC. It is a Wednesday and I don't think I can be home by myself on the day when I lost my baby boy in this very house. DH won't be able to go away with me as he has already taken 2 weeks from Xmas to New Year. Oh jolly!

Hi Zoe, sorry to hear things are moving so slowly for you, life is just so unfair, but glad you have come back.

I had appointment today with professor quemy again today who I saw I may. They have no answers, we are awaiting on the results from tissue taken from dnc but that takes 3-4 months. They started saying I should wait until the results then they can take it from there.

I was having none of that. She said they are very worried about my mental health and the long terms effects it will have. I told her not trying will effect me more because I have to keep going.

Anyway, long story short, after explaining about my short LP she thinks I may be super fertile and that is the problem. I am getting pregnant too easily! She wants to make me less fertile. Great I thought just what I need at 41.

It took 4 goes to get pg and she said at my age that is very quick as average is 6-9. As I seem to be super fertile my body is accepting all embryos whether or not they are viable and my body is rejecting at a later stage rather than at conception!

I need to contact her when I OV as they will do a biopsy of my womb 7 days after looking for NK killer cells. Even though I have 3 kids these can still develop at a later stage.

I will also be given progesterone cream to lengthen LP, the thinking is a longer LP helps the body sort the good from the bad, so in theory if I become PG again it will hopefully be a keeper.

This is not done on NHS and will cost £360, but that doesn't matter. She has also said we need a time limit, because from a mental state of mind, we can not keep going like this. She has suggested 6 months.

Not sure how I feel about that. Just hope all works out before then.

I have had my first acupuncture session and he too thinks he can help.

So lets see what happens.

Hi Danceroi

We was chatting a while back re Professor Q, and then I find you met with her only yesterday!

I take it your blood tests etc have not shown up any probs and you now have to go for the nk cell test. How disheartening for you as I know you was desperate for answers

I finally sorted my thyroid and still miscarried a 4th pregnancy

My consultant then prescribed me progesterone suppositories, high dose folic, low dose aspirin and I am nearly 8w pregnant. Had a scan at 7 & there was a heartbeat, this is the furthest I have got. I wasn't tested for mthfr or low progesterone, she just decided to prescribe anyway. Has Prof Q mentioned any of them to you?

Xx

 

[Hope39]

I also started acupuncture 3 days after my BFP, I believe he has also helped me get further xx

Hi Hope, sending you lots of luck and good thoughts for your PG.

I have 3 kids already, DS 11 next month, DD 8 next month and my little man who is nearly 2 1/2. I had a mc 3 years ago before my son was born.

This year I have had 2 with no obvious explanation, other than maybe my age as I am now 41.

Professor q carried out some tests in may,standard ones checking diabetes, thyroid, something to do with blood clotting and others, all came back clear.

She said the NK cells are something they check for childless couplesn, but she said they can develop at any time, so no harm I suppose in getting tested.

After I OV I will be treated with progesterone cream to try and extend my LP and make my body accept viable embryos. I am just worried now that I won't conceive in the 6 month time frame.

I am hoping the acupuncturist will work some magic, that enable me to get PG straight away in November and its a keeper.

However I have 1 small little problem. I have to contact professor q when I OV so they can carry out the womb biopsy 7 days later. Problem is as mc only 2 weeks ago I am getting positive opk's, they are not picking up OV as has been about 5 days now, so they are still picking up elevated levels of hcg

Sorry if tmi, but I have been getting pink tinged cm, so that is going to be difficult to look out for EWCM, might just have to rely on temps, so I am a little worried that if I miss this month I will have to wait another month before trying again!

Wishing you all the best for your sticky bean.
