Huge hugs, Becks.

Great news, T!

Lol Lisa. Hope that clears up for you before your trip.

 

[Alien73]

So sorry Becks. Sounds like your instincts were right from the beginning after all.... Big hugs

 

[Oasis717]

Thank you, I knew right from when I took the test things weren't right, you keep hoping and hoping but I knew in my heart it wasn't. At least my body recognised quickly this time, it took 6 long weeks for my natural mc in 2012 to start. Was in quite a lot if pain in the early hours but a little better now. Thanks so much to you all for caring so much, speak soonxx

 

[Serenjay]

Becks I am so sorry hunny I really want to give you a massive xxxxxx

Fi I know.. I was so shocked and literally gobsmacked at what I saw that what she said went over my head... I will pay for one its ok xx

Becks - thinking of you - this may sound a little insensitive and I don't want to upset you further, but have you considered getting in touch with the EPU and asking for a D & C. It's not a very nice thing, but I feel, in a way, it cleans everything inside, thus making a better place for future sticky beans.

Both Eoin and Caitlin were conceived straight after I had this done.



Well my eyes are more or less sorted, so won't be winking at any Italians! I have another problem now, a bad hip! Sounds like I'm in my sixties, not my forties. I think its muscular, hurts more when I've been sat for a while.

Although I was at the gym earlier and it seems worse tonight now. Better rest it for the next few days.

Oh Becks I'm so sorry I too really would love to sit , give you a huge hug and have a coffee with you right now . Sometimes being cyber friends sucks . I cried a tear for both you and your LO . Its a tough journey sometimes that we are all on . Until you come back to us know that you are in my heart

Lisa !! Lol that made me laugh after my tears , the poor man I bet thought he was in luck lol.... Can't wait to hear how ye get on skiing and your plane journey . Sea is 1 in 12 days !! Imagine can't quite believe it . We are off on hold for a week on the 23rd so birthday is consisting of a small tea party with family . I got a cake made of tatty teddy ill post a pic . I'm sad and happy about him being 1 . Part of me would so love to rewind and go back and cherish every second again . I know I did at the time but did I every second and the other half of me is looking forward to being a part of this little man growing up its so bloody emotional ! I've never ever been so emotional since I've got pg , and had baby . Its turned me into a big softie that crys at the drop of a hat !!! Lol...

Cry hope your ok ?? Is it officially labour watch now ?? Jo , Fi , Alien ( can't keep calling you that ! ) lol T love to all of you .
I sincerely mean you all are such an important part of my life

And again special for you Becks xxx

Lol, my real name is Kim actually.

Had my scan this morning, still a bit unreal…there was a heartbeat! And a baby that goes with it, right on track, measuring 6w5d. I immediately saw the flicker on screen, I had told the Dr to go straight for it, no fluffy small talk or measuring or anything, before checking for a hb. I even got due date (October 1st), I am still baffled. For some reason even with my m/mc I hadn't been given a due date so I am in uncharted territory here! Might have another scan in 1 week to 10 days as that would put me over the timeline they discovered the m/mc after seeing a hb last time…..


Hope everyone is doing well. Since I was prepared for a blighted ovum due to my low hcg levels, I had also given a D&C a thought, as I have heard several people moving on to a sticky pregnancy after that. I had made the choice to miscarry naturally every time so far and luckily did not 'need' a D&C , but I would have been ready to do it this time to start from scratch.

 

[josie1234]

Kim that is great - one hurdle done. Bet you are so pleased.

 

[Serenjay]

Lisa !! Lol that made me laugh after my tears , the poor man I bet thought he was in luck lol.... Can't wait to hear how ye get on skiing and your plane journey . Sean is 1 in 12 days !!
T love to all of you .
I sincerely mean you all are such an important part of my life

Regina Lisa made me laugh too.. lol... wow he is one already coming up... I can remember you having him and us waiting here for the news!!!

It feels like we are a big cyber family here.. I think you're all great!!

Ah Kim thats prettier than Alien lol... Congratulations on Scan I am 1 day behind you... I have another scan at EPAU on 23rd.. and hopefully this little one is still growing... my symptoms are getting worse so I think this one is planning on sticking around..

I had a D&C after having complications with a coil and bleeding so after that I thought I was safe and BAM I caught for my son lol They told me afterwards that it makes things squeaky clean and babies like to stick to womb then.

Hi Becks.. I hope you and DH are taking time to take this all in.. hope you are able to speak to someone about it... is your consultant someone you can see soon? Because you had a scan recently hopefully your consultant will want to see you? What about Aspirin? my consultant told me 75mg Aspirin from 1st day of a BFP... and every day then.. I have also been on 5mg folic acid for a few months... I feel that and the aspirin has helped me a lot this month... can you ask about that? xx

 

[Left wonderin]

Exciting Kim , I so happy for you you now are offical bump buddies with T I'm happy to can see slight changes to my cycles lots of EWCM this cycles , like never before ... Well since Sean's arrival and tmi warning feeling v horney lol.... Again different than in ages around ov . Thinking my Opk will turn positive tommrow or Friday not that I can do anything with it this month but with my bit longer AF last month looks like my cycles are getting back to normal , kicking this thyroid issue in the butt and returning my fertility

 

[Serenjay]

Regina that is excellent news.. and most of all.. its your bright outlook I think will help you.. having hope and faith I feel helps sometimes.. I really do wish you to get a bfp soon and catch up with grumpy me..

I'm in such a foul mood.. im sat in my room with laptop growling from afar.. cant even tolerate a sports bra on or nightie on boobs.. sat in bath on knees soaking poor balloons in water to get some relief then remembered I had to climb out and towel dry them

 

[Left wonderin]

T I've said it once ill say it again IM NOT GIVING UP TILL MENOPAUSE !! That's a year AFTER AF stops . So I could be here quite sometime lol....

Ouch I remember those boobs well, and the foul moods . I seriously was repelled by OH some days .... Like could not stand to be in the same room as him lol..... EVERYTHING about him irritated me , even how he was breathing !!! Hormones I love them

All good signs ....eeeeek

 

[Serenjay]

OMG I almost threw my dinner at him because of the noises he was making eating.. I had visions of it happening... he looked at me and said u ok babe? I said yeah... just daydreaming I then sat and cried my eyes out because im so tired and worn out and he went to cuddle me and my boobs hurt and I cried more.. so tucked myself in bed now.. supporting boobs with a sports bra and cuddling a pillow..so much pain..

Im glad your not giving up xx

 

[Alien73]

Omg, you made me laugh so hard about your OH, hormones, lol. My OH and I are living in different countries for the moment due to work, so I am not yet annoyed by him, but I will be moving back end of May.

SJ, how cool we are 1 day apart!

Regina, sounds like your body def is getting ready for more TTC Crossing my fingers the medication is doing its job quick, it does look like it

Thanks everyone, yes, i am really happy for the moment but obviously it is still a veeeery long way to go. I am also on Aspirin, Prednisolone and Clexane injections, plus Intralipids IV every 2 weeks….My Dr is a recurrent miscarriage specialist but works in an IVF clinic, I am really glad I can still see him despite this being a natural pregnancy. He also has me on daily progesterone injections although my levels are absolutely ok (like 30-something), so I hope I won't stay on them for too long, but he wants to boost progesterone as much as possible. I feel like a pin cushion lol. I am also taking 5mg of folate for the MTHFR.

Becks, have you ever tried Acupuncture or DHEA?

Jo, how are you??

 

[Serenjay]

Kim great we are a day apart yes wow your on some meds!! Im on 75mg Aspirin that I had to take from the moment I got a bfp (9dpo) and 5mg folic acid.. they have not taken any bloods. I had my scan monday and all was looking great..so hence still no bloods.. I never got this far with the 7 losses.. so hoping this means it will go on to a full term like my 3 grown ups.

I am so emotional.. I have a day off work booked. Im off to dentist.. I will struggle as I am nauseated and the smell of the dentist and her in my mouth with hands...ARGHH also I had an exam at 1pm that I can't go for.. they are weaning me off meds and its making me so agitated and im in pain(suffer with chronic pain).. and I cant concentrate so I will have to cancel it. im going to pop to dentist and come back to bed.. I had an horrific night again. I woke up from another nightmare and I was across the bed the wrong way and duvet was on the floor. Im not able to regulate my temperature.. has anyone had that problem? im hot then freezing then hot then freezing. I've cried 4 times since waking at 7.30am its now 8.30am and things hurt I forgot that hurt. boobs - ligaments etc..

where do you live and be moving to Kim?

 

[Oasis717]

Hi ladies, T I have to have a follow up scan at epu next Wednesday which is v sad as it was my original scan date and I would of been 7 weeks plus 3 days. This mc has been v hard on me physically and emotionally and I do hope you understand I need to take a break from the thread for a while, at least until I've had a chance to process this loss, I want you to know I am absolutely over the moon for you and Kim, I really am, I'm so happy that you both have your rainbows and all is looking so good, I wish with all my heart that you both have a happy and healthy 9 months but being that I should have been where you both are right now its v hard to read the thread, not because in anyway that I'm not happy for you both, I so am, but its just a bit painful ATM. I really hope you all understand. It's just too much of a reminder at the moment when I'm so very sad. My love to you all xxxxxxxxxx
