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

[Oasis717]

That's the thing t my boobs have been like that for the last three days xxx
Thank you Regina, I know I must stop wiping I'm getting chaffed lol, trying to put a brave face on you know what I did? Saved my wee for 5 hours from 7 til 12 to do the other test in the pack and knocked it off the side into the sink where it fell into soapy water and was ruined, didn't know whether to laugh or cry! Lol xxx funny cause the pains eased off and its the same browny pink, but I think when I mc naturally at 11 weeks I had about 2/3 days of brown before the red kicked in so its no getting my hopes up, still don't feel pregnant in anyway at all, I think it stopped developing at 4 weeks and I never made it past that xxx
Thank you crystal xxxx

Thinking of you Becks xxx

Have you thought of doing a digi? That might help one way or another xx

That's true Dance . Being stuck in that limbo is just awful . On Sean I had brown /pink / red spotting ( well more than spotting ) at times so much so I put a tampon in think AF was coming .. That was after I got my BFP . Aparently it was left over implantation bleed ???

What rotten luck with the test ..... Errrrr I'd go mad !! Lol.. Why are you thinking 4 weeks LO stopped growing at ? Based on the scan ?

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Lisa they don't do the weeks indicator test unless we go into Town which we aren't doing til about Wednesday I think xx
I know Regina what an idiot I am! Those bloody strips are so light that's the problem. Yes I think from the scan I stopped at 4 weeks and my body is taking its time, with my blighted ovum in 2012 I stopped at 5 weeks plus 1, it was diagnosed in a scan at 7 weeks but took until 11 weeks to mc, I had zero pregnancy symptoms like now except my boobs are really sore but that's it. No more pain just the dark brown ATM just wish whatever's going to happen happens so I can move on xxxxx

 

[dancareoi]

Becks, you know we're here for you. Lots of love and hugs xxxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks so much Lisa its you lovely ladies that are keeping me going! Confused.com today just brown cm now hardly any pain but I do think even if I make the scan I do think it won't be good, I'm not being pessimistic I just really don't think all is OK but thank you all for your support xxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Hey Ladies! Reid is here! He arrived via unplanned c-section on Friday January 30th at 5:23 a.m. weighing in at 6lbs 4 ozs and 19 inches long.

I just wanted to pop in and say that we are doing well. Breastfeeding is not going well...but he is such a good baby, he hardly ever makes a peep! We are working our way through the feedings and unfortunately breastfeeding just not be for us.

I'll be back soon to share the details. However, I never did figure out how to post a pic. I'll try to do that too.

Sending thoughts to Becks and T. Praying for all good things. Thinking of you too Crystal!

Jenn, fanulous news, congratulations.

Don't worry about the breast feeding, we are led to believe it is the most natural thing in the world, but it is amazing the number of people who struggle ( I had real problems with my first, we were back in hospital when he was 10 days old as he was losing too much weight as i wasnt producing enough milk/doing it wrong,by the time I got to Caitlin it was a lot easier and I'm still doing it now when she gets up in the morning, although from quite early on she had a bottle of formula for her last feed)

You have to do what's best for you and your rainbow.

Welcome to the world baby Reid.

Looking forward to seeing the photos.

Big hugs to the both of you xxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Jenn congratulations so so happy for you . Can't wait to hear all about your birth story .
As for feeding , I was so stressed over it all when Sean start refusing to feed that I was getting so upset , a very clever and wise friend of mine put it into perspective for me msh said its not poision or anythin ( refering to formula ! ) I laughed , she was right I'd blown I all out of proportion and Sean was 6 months lol. I too gave a bottle from the start so oh could join in . Expressing never worked for me so formula it was .

WELCOME TO THE WORLD BABY REID .

[josie1234]

So chuffed for you Jenn congratulations xxx
Welcome to the world baby Reid. Looking forward to seeing pics and hearing birth story. Don't fret about bf , do what makes you and baby Reid happy. Better to have a happy mummy than a stressed mummy.

How is everyone else?

 

[Left wonderin]

Jo still no sign of her ??? How are you feeling ? Those long cycles must be a killer and then never knowing when she is likely to turn up uck . When she does arrive is she normal ? Or heavier / lighter than usual ?

 

[Serenjay]

Jenn Congratulations on the birth of Reid.. I love the name.. does he have hair??

I wouldnt get too stressed about feeding, it is always a hit and miss some people are just very stubborn and try try try.. some just think I will try but in the meantime try a bottle... I had problems with mine but had a very good midwife that helped..but it was still a struggle.. you do what suits you and Reid..

Congratulations xxx

Massive congrats!!! Please don't feel bad about the bf I struggled for a week before being told I must stop as I had bleeding and raw nipples and was in loads pain! It was the right thing for me and for Brooklyn, he was so hungry! I'm so very very happy for you xxxxxxx

 

[Serenjay]

How are you doing Becks? xx

 

[Oasis717]

Same T really, same brown/beige discharge, mild pain, v v sore boobs but two tests since yest were half as dark as that last dark one so........ I think I've accepted its all over its just when will I mc? Still will ring epu tomorrow though. Dh and I have talked and were not sure we will carry on, with CP's its over before its begun and I've only had a faint line and I can kinda cope slightly better with that as awful as they are but when you start seeing things on scans and getting past 6 weeks I'm not sure I can cope keep going through this, I really don't know? You're scan tomorrow isn't it, so exciting, I just know everything will be OK love xxxxxxxx
