TTC After A Loss... Race for the BFP! - 211 BFP's!!!

[EpdTTC]

Welcome Fergie, sorry for your loss honey.

Congrats on your BFP Dietra!

Tasha it's sweet that you worry about others's feelings but I think honesty and accurate info is really important. I get freaked out when I hear about late term losses but like Megg said, we have to remind ourselves that everyone's situation is different & anything can happen, for better or worse.

NEGATIVE!!!

Meggy Poo Meggy Poo I think September's for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[padbrat]

Whoop whoop Meggy Moo! Great news hun!!!

And Dietra.... so many congrats chick!!! Fab news!!

Fergie... sorry you have to join us, but you won't find a better group of ladies anywhere other than here!!!!

.... on that topic.... Tasha, I think we all pretty much identify with everything you wrote earlier, if anyone understands the highs and crashing lows this process puts us all through we all do... so speak up chick, never be scrared of saying how you feel here.

Amos... my lovely... how you doing? testing too early.... Tut tut tut.... put the stick away for a few days!!!!

 

[Megg33k]

Thanks girls!

I don't mean to bring things down... but I've been cleaning tonight and keep finding stuff from the pregnancies that I haven't seen since the losses. I'm okay with baby stuff... but the onesies that we used to announce the 1st pregnancy to my family... and the birthing class schedule for 2009... and my Parenting magazines... I'm having a nervous breakdown.

Am I alone in feeling like I cant reply to people for fear of worrying/upsetting them? Even to you girls, like just then I tried to reply to Fergie that I have fallen quickly three times after my losses, once first month trying after we loss Honey and now we have her sister, miscarried in Feb this year got pregnant in the May (so two months trying), miscarried in the June and that first cycle we got pregnant again but am now waiting to miscarry again. I just dont want to scare any of you that one miscarry means multiple or that if you get pregnant again quickly it is going to result in another loss, does that even make sense? I read every single post on here but dont really reply because of this.

You're not the only one. I nearly didn't reply that I fell pregnant two weeks after my miscarriage incase she saw that I then went on to lose Isabella. It wasn't anything to do with falling so quickly but I am still never sure whether to post.

aww tasha its the not knowing that really eats away at you Chin up Mrs

VGibs ,,so u fell pregnant before AF ? ..X

I did too - 18 days after my miscarriage. It took me a bit longer this time though.

Tasha , coz i don't know what else to say!!

I'm watching I didn't know i was pregnant ... i was thinking at first, how nice, not to have all this stress and worry, just one day oh look you're having a baby ..... but OMG these stories are soooo scary!

I have already cried 3 times and it's only been on half an hour lol

What channel is that on?

WOOHOOO Show pics!!!

Okay, I got DH to link it for me. https://www.picvalley.net/u/2470/6329885568955056112810489591rhjciHB7vZVmf0e3JZb.JPG

Yey great digi

NEGATIVE!!!

Just shows how much faster things are in America. I had mine taken way before and I don't get mine back till the end of September - even though I am pregnant and could do with knowing tbh

Thanks girls!

Oh Megg It is so unfair, but you know sometimes it is better to find these things because it 'allows' us to cry and crying is a good thing. That is fab news about the tests.

Deb I love that sort of programme, never seen that one though. I didnt know about Honey until I was over 20 weeks pregnant, I know not as far those girls but still far enough and the guilt I felt was huge even though I dont drink, smoke or take medicines apart from paracetamol I was still wondering if I would of done anything to adversely affect her and then my waters went at 28 weeks so I thought it must of been something I did, and then when she was born sleeping at 36+6 the guilt was there too, even though I knew it was medical negligence.

dietrad congratulations, that is fab

Vickie I am glad I am not alone in feeling like that. Have you asked them about your tests? My original ones done after Honey were back in a few weeks, when I got pregnant with Kaysie the doctor wanted to do his own tests (we moved hospitals) and within a week they were back saying I have Factor V Leiden.

Thank you for the support girls, you are right about people separating my losses to there's. I think it is cos I know TTCAL and PAL is so scary any way and then I keep reading things round the forum and people refer to my sort of story as a 'horror' story. Plus I just think I am extra sensitive right now, in the past three weeks my aunt has died, waiting for this miscarriage, been having blood transfusions cos of my iron and then yesterday solicitor rang to say another report into Honey's case say she could and should be here if we were cared for right. Never rain's but it pours right? LOL.

 

[lynnb]

Tasha - nothing I can say will make you feel better so just sending you loads of & I'm thinking of you

Meggs - Great news about you tests

Fergie - Welcome & sorry for your loss, hope you get your BFP soon

 

[bbhopes]

Ok I want to get this right so if I do it wrong let me know!!
Oct 2007/ Oct 2008 1+1
Big Hugs Megg!!
Baby dust to all!!

 

[bbhopes]

big hugs all round... just read back a bit there, I went through a lot of baby stuff and packed more up the other day, we only started to buy new stuff again lately. Its hard though to see the clothes that are linked to our pregnancies though, I haven't set eyes on the bids I gave my mom and dad the first time think I wouldn't be able to handle it to be honest.

They said when they took them that it would take 8 weeks for the results. Its 8 weeks in mid August so I am going to start chasing them as the appt they gave me was 24th September and if there is something I will need more than just the aspirin that I am on.


I am back from my scan. All looked absolutely great. The guy who did the scan is lovely (he was the one who told me Jessica was a girl at my 20 week scan). He said that a bleed that looks big next to a tiny 6 week embryo doesn;t look very big next to a 9 week embryo.

I said that I get terrified before each scan and he said they could cure that by not scanning me anymore lol. Unfortunately that wouldn't change anything if things had gone wrong

Next scan is booked for the 24th August as I couldn't do exactly 2 weeks as I am away.

That means I need to change my 12 week scan to 13 weeks otherwise there will only be a week between the two.

Baby is measuring 2 days behind still as it has been all along but they date you at the 12 week scan. If it's still 2 days behind then they will change my due date to Isabellas birthday. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Anyway one gorgeous little baby (he said another one hasn't popped up lol) and it is measuring 2.2cm head to bum.

 

[lynnb]

Vickieh1981 - Great news & fab scan piccy

Fx'd everything goes OK for you

 

[Tigerlilies]

Vicki, that is a great scan! Is two days really that big of deal developmentally or do they just keep mentioning it for the due date? Regardless of what the predicted due date is, it doesn't mean this little baby will born on Isabella's due date so try not to think about it to much, you could always tell other ppl another date, it really doesn't matter until that baby is ready to come out.

 

[Fergie89]

Heyy every1

i have just started doing the Basal Temperature thing for the first time ,, and do not have a clue what is normal and whats not lol.. my temp this morning was 35.9 ... is this normal? ...X

 

[Megg33k]

Tasha - It does pour, sweetheart! Always!

Vickie - Our tests much run a lot faster! I imagine its tricky to think of your EDD being Isabella's birthday! But I'm sure she's looking out for this little one and perhaps its her gift to you on such a hard day.

bbhopes - You did it just fine, honey! I'll add you! I'm sorry for your losses though!

Fergie - Yep! Very normal! I have a thread called "TTCAL Chart Stalkers Anonymous Meeting"... There's a ton of fab ladies who've been temping for ages in there. And, I can link to your chart on the first page for opinions as your cycle progresses... if you like!

If you can just post a link to your chart in there, I'll get it all taken care of! And, no... That's no too high. Mine used to run about that pre-O... now it runs closer to 36.4.

I'd like to make the first official gender guess! If your scan was external (over the tummy) then girl... If it was internal (transvag) then boy!

Fergie, if it's any help, my pre Ov temps are usually 35.9 up to 36.4, post Ov temps go from 36.4 to 36.9.
