Trying for a Baby Part 8

Courgette

*delurks*

I feel the same MV although logic has it that if we've both had babies before then we can again. I know exactly what you mean though.

We're now onto month 5 post mc and I'm no nearer to having a baby than I was in the spring. I know 5 months isn't that long but this will be my 6th pregnancy and the longest it's ever taken has been 2 months so I'm starting to worry. I have two beautiful children but to be trying for pregnancy number 6 is crap

Feel free to have some of my PMA MV & courgette. It might make it easier for me when AF arrives

I sometimes feel like I won't have another baby either I'm 6 months post m/c too courgette. Due date in 2 weeks It sucks

I feel like for the most part I am coping ok with it, but earlier I was having a chat with a good friend that I don't see very often and she had trouble conceiving her #2 and knows about my m/c etc, and I was doing fine but then I suddenly had to stop talking mid-sentence as I was about to burst in to tears about it all. We were in a public place - it would not have been good

I think trying for any pregnancy where it is a struggle or after a loss is crap tho All the naivety and wonderful-ness of it all is tinged with worry and sadness

We can do it tho ladies. Its gotta be our turn soon for a trouble free forever pregnancy surely?! :beer:

Hi ladies

Hope you are all well. I've been in Ireland for the last week visiting my folks, just in the airport now waiting for our flight home and it's the first time all week I've had internet access for more than a minute or two at a time so I'm trying to catch up but just wanted to check in and say hi.

Abis - thank you for updating the lists If and when you have time, could I be updated to 8dpo please? Also please post photos of the kitten when you get it, I am so jealous!

Has anyone heard anything from QQ? I hope she's ok... QQ if you are reading, you have been in my thoughts all week.

I know it's a bit early but I'm thinking of testing tomorrow (9dpo) as it's DH's birthday and I'd quite like to have a drink. I've been feeling really sick today and yesterday though and had a huge temp drop this morning so am hoping it's an implantation drop so I don't really want to have a load of wine only to get a BFP in a few days, not sure what to do, not sure what to do about drinking really, any thoughts? I don't want to be too optimisic obviously...

Will catch up on a week's worth of posts tomorrow. Hugs for all the CD1s, Metranil, Pomme and other BFNs, Becca and anyone else with long/dodgy cycles, TeamLowe for having a horrible time, and anyone else in need of one x

Hi Angeltreats - Hope you enjoyed your time in Ireland :j Will update the lists tomorrow so will sort it then for you

As for the drinking thing - this has been raised a few times and it really is a personal choice. I don't think you will get a +ve at 9dpo IMHO. It could be a +ve in the waiting though.

At 9dpo the (potential) embryo isn't taking anything from you as the placenta isn't formed for a few more weeks after that.

If it was me I would have 1 or 2 drinks and stop at that. Cos that way I would still be 'joining in' but also then if I did get a BFP a few days later then I wouldn't feel guilty.

Some people go by the motto of enjoy it while you can as when you are confirmed pregnant then you will have 9 months off alcohol anyways.

I've been trying over a year now, and I don't think I have ever gotten drunk in the 2ww. Mind you, its a rare thing these days a night out so that might be half the reason

Abis - Fingers crossed it is implantation bleeding. Yay for kittens. We already have three farm cats so another one is out of the question but I love kittens:D

Metformin works on reducing insulin resistance and lowers the amount of male hormones that our ovaries make where as Clomid and soy isoflavins help our bodies to make estrogen that grows follicles before O'ing. I had hoped that metformin would be enough but it takes a longer than normal time for my temps to start dropping before O. If I was a more patient person I would probably give the met a couple of cycles but I have a very loud clock ticking in my head since I saw the FS. He won't give me clomid until March.....I'm too impatient to wait till then so will see if soy can help.

COMP - Hugs for cd1

Becca - Hugs for moving. I am sure you will grow just as fond of your new place once you start making some memories there. New beginnings are very exciting.


Vesper - Hope the witch stays away

My due date is coming up too and it never ever occurred to me that there'd be a chance I wouldn't be pg again. I spend so much time these days just feeling really !!!!ed off. There's redundancies happening at work so I'll have to be interviewed for my job in the week I would have been due. Don't even want the sodding job and I haven't been there long enough to get any payout.

Yes please, Abis, I'd love some of your PMA!

TeamLowe

At least you ladies have some comfort in one successful pregnancy, 15 months after my miscarriage and not a sniff...

TeamLowe

Sorry courgette, cross posted, big love for your interview, nothing about e redundancy process is fun
Hope you're all feeling better soon, I'm just a moaning minty x x
