:grouphug: I think it's hardest when there are things in common between someone else's pregnancy and one that you have lost.Toooldforthis wrote: »Yesterday it hit me like a ton if bricks...I bumped it to someone who had fell pregnant the same time as I did (3rd time) she is ready to drop and I'm well I'm just still waiting and still sad :'( ....sorry everyone x0 -
It's so hard isn't it - a loss affects so much and takes the joy away from what should be a happy time. I am hoping all is well this time.Just popping in as I am in my extra nervous/scared days. I am 9+3 today and I lost my angel baby between 9+3/5 (measurements at 12 week scan.) So remaining positive everything is ok 'in there' and wishing all of you baby dust if you haven't already had some

Just seen the wave of light on facebook - I didn't know there was such a day. Thinking of you all, last year this thread got me through some of the toughest times I've been through. xxxfran-o0

Claire that is so sad about the Panda! I hadn't heard about it.:(
Lara, how are you doing? Hope AF hasn't shown up!
Betty I did that too. It's nice to remember and there were some lovely things/photos/sentiments being shared on facebook. Hope you are ok.
Toooldforthis I know exactly how you feel. We have friends who are due the same week I should have been, and we saw them on Sunday. I was really pleased that she had a big coat on so I couldn't see her bump. How silly is that?! Hugs to you.
Sam I've got everything crossed for you this time.
BWP and Fran-o hope you are both ok too.
Rosie where did you go? Please post so we know you are ok Xx
AFM still no AF. Just been to Drs and mentioned it. She wants me to have a blood test in the morning to check my thyroid and see if I'm still anaemic. She was appalled I was only given a week's worth of iron tablets by the hospital and said I should have been given 3 months worth! She also said it could be down to all the stress I'm under at home and that if the blood tests don't reveal anything I have to talk to the hospital about it at my appointment next week.
She was lovely and very understanding. It didn't really help that she was pregnant though

PLMBL - I am sorry your still have cycle issues - I hope you get a resolve soon. Shame she was pregnant it doesn't help, when I walked out of hospital after my operation the first person I saw as I turned out the ward was pregnant. And even now there are pregnant people everywhere but always like due to drop. Keep having really terrible thoughts and last night I had a nightmare. I just want to get through this week. I should be happy but instead every twinge and toilet trip is filled with dread. I have a private scan Saturday afternoon, positive all will be ok and there will be a happy larger bean xx3 Children - 2004 :heart2: 2014 :heart2: 2017 :heart2:

Hugs, Lucky. Glad the Dr is being a bit more helpful and you're getting some checks. It has been really stressful time for you. Are you getting any rest and relaxation time atm?
My AF didn't show up yet, but it's only CD30. Trying not to get my hopes up.
Sam, it must be a very stressful time. I know it's not easy to do, but best not to worry. I hope the scan will go brilliantly. Saturday is just a few days away xxx:A :heartpuls June 2014 / £2014 in 2014 / £735.97 / 36.5%0 -
Thanks for thinking of me. I am actually incredibly lucky to be pregnant for the second time since my last loss (which was at 21 weeks). I'm finding it absolutely terrifiying (for various reasons more so than the first) and I still want my other babies back so things aren't easy at the moment but I'm trying to be as positive as I can and tell myself that there's no reason for everything not to be okay. I've also just started counselling which in reality I knew over two years ago I needed and had just been putting it off/been in denial that I needed it so I am hoping that that will help me to deal with things better than I feel I have done so far.please-let-me-be-lucky wrote: »BWP and Fran-o hope you are both ok too.0 -
Congratulations on the pregnancy BWP! That's lovely news. Everything is crossed for you too and I hope the counselling helps. You deserve it.
Sam I know what you mean about panicking over every twinge etc. I hope all goes well on Saturday, just 2 more sleeps!
Lara I hope AF stays away for you. :rotfl: at the thought of me getting some rest and relaxation!! You read my diary, you know what it's like round here!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Oh wow BWP, that's brilliant. I hope that everything is smooth sailing this time around, and that counselling is helpful.



Lucky - I know! Yours is a hectic household! I hope you manage to carve out so 'me' time somehow. Wish I lived closer I'd come round and babysit
