Hellobee Boards

@Jess1483: YES!!!!!! Hooray for AF! Hope mine isn't too far off.

@ValentineMommy: I hear you. I have a bunch of ladies from Georgia's pregnancy group that are pregnant right now (most due after I would have been, urgh) - and with all the CONSTANT complaints about being pregnant, I had to leave the group. I would have morning sickness every single day, all day every day, if it meant I could have a healthy baby at the end of it all.

@2PeasinaPod: I'm glad you have a plan but I am SO sorry that you need one at all. *big massive hugs* I always found males better than females too, weird huh? My friend had her Asherman's scarring cleared up, and she's fallen naturally twice. I know, I know, one of THOSE stories, but I've heard it can make all the difference.

@MaryM: You just pop in and out when you can. We'll be here.

@Tidybee: I hope the appt went well today. It's a tough one, but I guess listen to your gut. x

@simplyfelicity: I've decided to do a 12 week health program to make the next few months go by faster. At least I can shake some of this pregnancy weight... at least I hope.

@FliegepilzHut: This dragging out is the worst. I'm so frustrated for you.

@mrs bunchy: Still no period here. D&C was on August 12.

Thanks everyone. I saw my doc yesterday, and he is convinced I've just been unlucky 3 times but he wants me to go to an RE for some testing, especially thyroid function just to be safe. As I expected, he (and DH) really wants me to take this month off to give my body a rest. I'm really sad about it. I know one month isn't a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but it feels like an eternity right now especially as we're entering the time to start trying this month. Our first due date will be here soon, and I won't be pregnant. We've been at this for so long now and it's starting to become the stressful process that we so desperately wanted to avoid since we had already been through it the first time.

@simplyfelicity: @Jess1483: Thanks guys! As crazy as it sounds, I hadn't even thought of the positive things I could do. I guess that speaks to how bummed out I've been. Thanks to you - I realized i have plenty of things to look forward to and keep me busy...including a long weekend away to a resort in Florida with just DH. Now I'll definitely be able to drink on the beach! Thanks for the lift...it was exactly what I needed.

@jaguar: I know someone who complains constantly. They know what I'm going through, but they don't seem to understand that I would take whatever she has, times a million, and be grateful every single day to be pregnant with a healthy baby.

@Jess1483: even when people day the right thing it can stillbe frustrating, lol.

@Tidybee: I recently passed my EDD, so I know how hard it is. We'll be here to help you get through it. A month does seem to be an extraordinarily long time when all you want to do is get KU again so you can heal. I'm so sorry.

@simplyfelicity: ugh, the waiting game is the worst. Hugs. How are you doing emotionally?

I'm sorry for not participating more. I have a bad attitude towards ttc right now, I just feel like it's never going to happen, and the cost and process of going through fertility testing is overwhelming and intimidating. I haven't wanted to bring everyone down, but whenever I come on here to read, I'm reminded of how much you all understand and how supportive you are. ️

@simplyfelicity: thanks, friend. ️

@Crystal: Absolutely! Don't feel like you're "bringing us down." We've all had our good days and our bad. We're here to encourage on our good days and receive encouragement on our bad. I'm so sorry you're feeling overwhelmed about the possibility of fertility treatments. I can't even imagine. I'm wishing you peace and thinking of you!

@Tidybee: The waiting is THE WORST. *hugs* That article is very true. I have found myself looking at pregnant women I know, and wondering 'why them' all the time..

@Jess1483: See, I feel bad for people with severe morning sickness... of course you would. But I'd seriously put up with it, and more, for what they're getting at the end. x

@Crystal: GAH the complainers. Frustrating. I have the same fears as you, with fertility and money and TTC. You're not alone.

@simplyfelicity: Those good and bad days you mentioned... I totally have those. I wish I could pick what sort of day it's going to be in the morning and know. Sometimes I just knocked for six with sadness.

No guarantees that a) I'll actually ovulate, or b) It means anything - because our IF stuff goes both ways, hubby too... but I suppose at the very least, I'll hopefully get a period instead of having to take Provera?

@jaguar: that looks great! I would still get some BDing in just in case! @Crystal: thanks for the sweet message. @simplyfelicity: I hate not doing stuff because I'm pregnant and then it ends up failing. it's like a double kick in the gut. I remember how I didn't order this awesome brie appetizer at a restaurant because oh gosh, it might hurt the baby. baby was already gone. It makes me feel so stupid. So yes, I'm happy I'll be able to really truly relax.
I read another article when I was googling "3 miscarriages". Here's a little excerpt for all of us who feel that it is so unfair that people get pregnant/have babies easily:
"The true, valuable concerns of fairness have less to do with entitlement and more to do with institutionalized racism and sexism and the history of marginalization and how to solve those problems as a modern, thoughtful society. That's something worth worrying about. But me not having a baby THE INSTANT I WANT ONE is not about fairness. It's not about anything. It is what it is.

And, truth be told, do you know what's unfair? That I met my husband, who is great, when I was 22 and I only had to waste time dating, like, three or four horrible a**holes. You know what else is unfair? That I was born in a comfortably upper-middle class family and was afforded every opportunity. That I'm white and straight. That is unfair."

Hi ladies! So I had an early miscarriage (4 weeks 4 days) on August 23rd. When I first found out I was pregnant I was having pressure around my pelvic bone and upper thigh (both sides). I looked it up and women were saying it can be normal in pregnancy. I then miscarried 5 days later and ever since I still feel pressure there. Im almost positive I passed the baby because it was pretty obvious...and my hcg levels went from 37 to 12 in 2 days. I was wondering if any of you ladies have/had this pressure even after you had a miscarriage? Now I'm really concerned because we BD on this past o-4, o-2, o-1, o, o+1 this cycle, and thats the same schedule we did last month when we did get pregnant. If anyone has any advice please let me know!! I called my doctor on Thursday, but havent heard back yet

@simplyfelicity : you are so sweet! Thank you for such a quick response! I actually was wondering the same thing..if I'm so fixated in the pain that maybe I'm creating it myself? I believe our timing is great too, I'm just concerned because of the pressure I've been feeling..that maybe it wasn't the best idea to try when I don't know if something is wrong with me. I tend to worry a lot and look everything up on google (I know it's a very bad idea but for some reason I still do it) it was saying I could be having an ectopic pregnancy or endometriosis. So it just gave me cause for concern now. I didn't realize that there would be a chances that my cycle could be off... I actually ovulated (via opk) on cd16, which is when I normally ovulate. I'm so sorry for you losses, sometimes it's easier to talk to someone who has been through it and understands the pain. I'm always here to talk

@jaguar: glad it helped. For me, it forced me to look outside of my little world and at the whole big picture and where my miscarriages fit into it all.

@Tidybee: That is an interesting article...I imagine one that it's only possible to write after you're pretty sure you're in the home stretch. Still, it was an interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing!

I got my smily face last night though.. so I think I might actually be O-ing (Thanks, sneaky Clomid!)

@jaguar: Yay! I think I may have ovulated in the last day or so (heckuva lot of good that does me, usually), however at least that means things are on track for November!

@mrs bunchy: Argh. I hope your AF gets here soon and life gets a bit less hectic. Your pup is adorable!

@jaguar: We're officially "unexplained." Oh well. Yay for November transfers and (hopefully) BFPs!!!

@jaguar: Me too!

@jaguar that's so exciting!! Bd everyday!!! I'll be crossing my fingers for a BFP this cycle for you! And ya I think it would be better to call him again, I just feel bad because I worry about every symptom and I don't want him to think I'm just crying wolf.

@tidybee thank you
