Trying for a Baby Part 8

becca0417

Updated all predictions for this month, let’s hope it’s a bumper month. We’ve already had our first, let’s keep it up!

Mrsbunn –if you let me know what CD you are on, I’ll add you to the list. I’m sure QQ will add you to the front page when she gets back

Claretsgirl– go for it. We’re thinking of booking a holiday at Easter, I say do it!

Tinks –those are lovely!!!!

Mish – I don’t think anyone, including myself, was ‘mick taking’ to be honest, I think it was more surprise. Each to their own.

Hi mrsj! :wave:

TL – aren’t they charming! Talk about back handed compliment.

AFM, real PMT here. AF should be here by mid-week which gives me a real short LP this time. Feel really disappointed even though I knew we were out.

Morning ladies
Please can you put me as CD2?

Those who are lucky enough to have never had such loss or complications shouldnt live their lives in fear of it happening though, should they ? The majority of people will never know (thankfully) and I think the poster in questions attitude of dealing with it when/if it happens is a healthy one.

I've been reading this thread since leaving and was really saddened by the mick taking of someone who was only enjoying the trying for a baby process in their own way, i thought this was a much more non judgemental supportive thread than that

Honestly, i think it's something everyone needs to be much more aware of. I feel quite strongly about that. There is no point promoting campaigns like 'Count the Kicks' if everyone is going to live in LalaLand and pretend nothing bad will ever happen.

I don't know how far that poster had gone in preparation for their future pregnancy/baby.....but I think (and I am entitled to my own opinion) decorating a nursery or buying clothes, nappies or a pushchair is a bit weird to be honest. Especially if you are still WAITING to try to conceive. Pregnancy is a long journey....why do all the fun bits before you've even started?

Hugs for CD2 Apple.


Becca - Thanks for doing all the lists for us. I had no idea what CD I was on

MrsJ - Stay as long as you like! I don't use any of the preggo threads and I won't when I get pg (notice the pma there) so it's nice to know how you are getting on

I have really terrible pains in my belly today, feels like AF is going to start again

Hugs to anyone who wants or needs one. Tink - your work is really lovely!

Waiting for CD1 not sure where it is!

Im usually v.regular 28/29 days and Im pretty sure I ovulated when I normally would. I was expecting a long cycle last month with it being the first after my m/c but maybe its just going to make up for it this cycle. We didnt BD at the right time so dont think I could be pg.

My last AF was quite heavy so maybe that has something to do with it.

Im straddling two threads at the moment because I dont really know whether Im trying or not if that makes sense. I just cant bring myself to wait 'properly!'

Thank you for all the congratulations

congratulations DB! here's to a healthy and happy pregnancy for you btw the chances of two miscarriages in a row is 2.25% if that statistic comforts you at all

This statistic does give me some comfort, thank you

Razwaz – your morning yesterday sounds great, love the fact you won the tickle fight!!

Welcome MrsBunntobe, I hope your stay is short and sweet in the nicest possible way.

Tinks, I love the little Christmas stockings. I can’t believe we are talking about Christmas already.

Mogwai – like TeamLowe I think the IVF cockatiel idea is funny

Hello MrsJ :wave:

Becca – you are doing a wonderful job as a stand in for QQ

Lilymay - thanks for the hugs, I went out and had rather a lot of vodka to commiserate and I'm currently still in bed, teetering on the brink of a major hangover!
Hasn't helped that oh has been cooking beetroot and making roasted pepper soup since about 9am - two smells I hate at the best of times but when my stomach is churning it's really not good!!
God knows how I would ever cope with morning sickness.......

I have to agree with you lilymay on the nursery side of things, can't think of anything worse than having a constant reminder that we've still not conceived.....
But everyone is different and we are all entitled to our opinions. I read somewhere

Hi mrsj! Nice to hear from you again!

CD1 for me, though its a light AF but at least I am not waiting 40+ days as some do on an anovulatory cycle.

A bit concerned that Ive had one (first ever) but Ive read that its normal??

Please dont update me becca, remove me for now as I wont be TTCing until nov now. Also need to take noristherone for this trip to stop my periods so am sure will come back all messed up!

Will be keeping an eye on the thread though

ps a lot of animals do get IVF apparently - poor things prob have no clue whats going on!

Hugs for all the CD1 people or who just generally need a hug.

Please can I have a hug back tho?

Am not doing so good at the mo. Wasn't expecting to be upset by CD1 this month, but it came on testing day and its also so so heavy compared to what it was like pre-miscarriage (and has also been for the last 2 times as well). I don't like bleeding so much and I always seem to get caught out by it cos I'm not expecting it to be so bad.

I bled really badly in the night last night, and woke up at 4am looking like a murder had taken place in the night. I've never had to change protection in the night before prior to the miscarriage, and mostly didn't even need protection over night as when I was horizontal nothing flowed out

Then after cleaning myself and the bed up as best I could with DH sleeping still, I think got thinking about the baby. I have a rubbish memory normally, but I can remember all the phrases everyone used in the hospital etc and they all just kept running round my head last night, and re-living the operation before and afterwards.

Seem to be struggling lots at the mo.

DD is at her dads til tomorrow and I so just want her here with me. Have had a big cuddle from DH but just can't seem to snap out of it at the mo.

:T I like that quote. It's very apt. I like the one below too...(I think it was Voltaire?)

"I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it"

Hope the hangover isn't too bad! I used to love love love Vodka....pregnancy may have ruined the rest of my body but it certainly helped my liver!

I am off to hobbycraft shortly. I've decided I am going to make DS's 1st birthday invites. I made my wedding invitations and they were delightful, if I may say so. I'm so excited about it even if it's virtually 2 months away! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


Edit: Abis, we cross posted. Massive massive hugs chick. I'm sorry you're feeling so rubbish Can you and OH do something nice today to take your mind off things? Will chocolate help? Hugs hugs hugs xxx

So sorry to hear you are having a hard time, have you been getting counselling from the hospital?

I think its harder when you are still having 'symptoms' following a loss because you feel like you cant put it behind you.
