TTC after loss - over 40 - any takers? Our lucky thread - 9 rainbows and 1 BFP

[Left wonderin]

I forgot to tell you guys something weird that I've put meaning onto now , even at the time it happened I thought that's a bit weird . About two days after o/v last month I'd just hoovered the hall and mopped the floors . There was nothing left on them . I walked down the hall and when I looked down there was a perfect silver / white feather at my feet . Have no idea where it came from and how it ended up where it did . I picked it up and thought that's weird and put it on the hall table . I thought nothing more of it until later that day I found it on the kitchen window . OH swears he didn't move it ! Anyway this feather for some reason took on a big significance for me ... I'm not usually that type of person , practical you see ....... Well I googled it and what did I find . A unexplained feather is a sign of an angel trying to communicate ........ Maybe it was my little one giving me a sign it was my time and all will be ok . That feather is now in the memory box of my little soul xxxxxx

That is beautiful, your own little angel is looking out for you.

I've also read in the past that when you lose a little one , their little soul stays with you just waiting for another chance.

This could be your little ones way of saying I'm still here and I'm staying this time!

Teaching a jewellery making class to two ladies this morning. I am feeling so sick it's unreal. This could proove embarrassing. At least it's in my work room.

 

[crazymam]

well I go away for a week and come back and find I have missed a !!!!
Congratulations Left!!! So pleased for you, I shall have to go away more often haha next holiday I have booked is in 3 weeks ladies so I expect more good news when I come back
Hope everyone is doing ok, all ladies with bumps doing well and those still waiting hope you keeping those positive thoughts.
I think this thread alone has certainly proved us older mums still have what it takes.
The feather story was lovely, I have heard about white feathers before. When my grandfather died I kept finding them in the weirdest of places.
My dog actually knew I was pregnant before I did. She wouldn't leave my side, literally. The morning I tested I had come down for brekkie and there were two robin red breasts singing in my garden outside kitchen window, bearing in mind it was freezing outside and still winter and had never seen them before. They were there every morning I tested and when I stopped testing and finally accepted I was pregnant and had no doubts they left??? Probably just a coincidence
AFM
I am feeling great now, sickness gone, tiredness gone, back into my exercise routine, still checking heartbeat every other day though haha and bump growing rapidly now! . Next scan on 28th x

Crazy ! Your 18 weeks on the way to 19 already. Where did that time go !!!! Thanks for going away its a week to the day I got my BFP , its gone quickly enough but every day ( or should I say trip to the toilet ) feels like an eternity can't remember if I said I got a date for my early scan .... Role on the 12th of July !!!!

 

[Kat S]

LW, so glad you got your scan scheduled! Aww your BFP anniversary...so cute! Keep sticking, little bean!!

 

[josie1234]

Loved the feather story, beautiful.

Next holiday in 3 weeks, Jan, I will see what I can do lol. Still working on that BFP. Glad to hear that you are feeling ok. That time seems to have flown.

How is everyone else today? I had a lovely time visiting DH today, had a wander around Wycombe. Now back home chilling, tired after the drive (only an hour and half each way) but it was so nice getting away. Early night for me I think.

 

[Oasis717]

Glad you had a nice day Jo, not been out myself, sickness back today xxxxx

I had my IUI this morning, and it went great. Unfortunately, the lab is closed on Saturdays, so though they can do the sperm wash, etc, they can't give me hard #'s. They do look at it carefully through a microscope and are familiar enough with that to offer a ballpark number. They said it looks to be about 25-30 mil post wash, which is what he was last month (with a 99% motility). So we're pleased with those numbers. They let us look in the microscope, too! Very cool

So now I'm home, feeling a little crampy on the left (which is where I had two juicy follies). Now I waaaaaait for two weeks and try hard not to symptom spot...especially since I did Bravelle and had the trigger, which totally can give you preg symptoms the whole TWW.

 

[Oasis717]

Wonderful news Kat, everything crossed for the next two weeks for you!! Xxxxxx

 

[josie1234]

Thanks Becks. Not good hun, you are having a tough time of it. Hope you feel better soon xxx

 

[josie1234]

Kat - how's your PMA? Hope you are keeping strong and thinking positive. Loads of

 

[josie1234]

Kat - keeping my FX'd for you. Its hard not to symptom spot, confusing when you get the symptoms from Bravelle and trigger. Stay positive, good numbers xxxx

 

[Kat S]

It's really good right now! Husband's sample was a winner, we have two eggs...everything went right! This is it

After the procedure when I was lying there for the 15 min, I visualized the spermies intercepting the eggies and fertilizing. LET'S DO THIS!!

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Jox it's not everyday at least anymore xxxxx

 

[josie1234]

That's good then, hope the good days make up for the bad.

 

[dancareoi]

Jo, glad u had a nice day, when's hubby back again?

Becks. Sorry to hear you are sicky again, hopefully be better tomorrow

Kat glad today went well, fingers crossed now and PMA

Jan I didn't realise you'd been away , I was wandering why you hasn't been around , hope you are keeping well.

Karen hope your sickness has gone now

Regina and Fiona , another day nearer

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Lisa, Brooklyn has just had his crazy mad moments same time every night and dh and me have been watching my belly jumping all over the show, so funny, makes up for the sickness anyday, I get much much more frequent movement now but he always seems to have a late night crazy half hour every night lol xxxx
